WASHINGTON, .January 17, 1800.
yVhy cannot a speaker be elected ? One
r e;iiuD i*, because there arc fifteen or twenty
members from the South, who really do not
j fi .irt! an organization. In my opinion they
would rejoice if they could break up our gov
ernment, bring the country into a state of an
archv, and out of this chaos and confusion
:ib ait a Southern Confederacy. That
i ling object. Mr. Pugh, of Ala
's >oest enough to say that he did
the house to organize. There are
Ml i- -\iiu have the same feelings, hut who
• nut the boldness to avow them. The
r hypocritically profess attachment to
i oi, and a desire to organize the House.
v ,.j -i ov their determination to prevent, by
interminable debate, the adoption of any
in> i-ere calculated to bring about an organi
z-ifi'ifj.
tl -mr Pennington submitted a resolu
F' lay, declaring that the body would
that day, and if no Speaker were
1 should be taken at one o'clock
vestcrday,) when he who should
~ h Micst vote should be Speaker.
Mr. Lea., . of Virginia, a secssionist, inv*
mediatiiy raised a point of order, that this
resolution could not be received. The Clerk
has decided that this point of order was do
batrable.
Mr. Grow contended that it was only de
Rateable f 1 a limited extent.
Mr. Huston, of Alabama, said that as it
is dehati able, it was so to the same length and
breadth as any other proposition before the
House.
The Cierk said it would he for the House
to determine the lengtli and breadth of the
debate admissible upon it.
Mr. Huston—exactly so ; and the question
of referring the subject to the House if also
•debateahlo.
The animus, or intention of Mr. Huston,
stands out here so prominently and nakedly,
that it cannot he mistaken, llis object is con
anarchy. lie virtually gives no
tice mat upon a mere question of order,
whether a resolution is admissible or not, he
and those who arc with him are determined
to talk about "every thing and all things he
sides:'' all things upon the earth and all
things uml r the earth ; ail things v isible and
nil things invisible ; all things true and all
•lings false; all things pertinent and all things
mpertinent. Talk, talk, talk is to he inter
nosed and kept up, for no purpose hut to pre
-ent an organization of the House; and those
am do this, Huston at their bead, are the
u:< rg.inizers, and responsible for the block
ing of (ho wheels of government. They don't
v i it the government to go on, and are de
tained it shall not, if they can prevent it.
WASHINGTON, January 18, 1800.
It has transpired that a debate took place
in the Senate on Monday, iu secret session,
which was most intemperate and boisterous
in its character. Without quoting Senators,
I am authorized to say that it was more threat
cuing and inure disloyal to the Union than
perhaps had ev.-r been heard before in the
Capitol. It is reported out of doors that Mr.
Toombs said that if a President should be
elected by Northern votes, sooner than that
he should he inaugurated, there should not
•me stone of the Capitol rest upuu another. I
cave reason to suppose that this was not the
particular form i his remark, though it was
s arcely less threatening.
The debate t "k place upon the nomina
tion ot Mr. Faulkner, of \ a., as minister to
France. Some one said that he understood
that Mr. Faulkner was a disunionist. Air.
1' unl.s thereupon pronounced the charge to
'!"■ a lie. The Senator who had made the
: urge said he was not in the habit of bandy
ing epithets in that Hall, hut would give the
proof and have the lie to rest w here tire testi
mony should leave it
The proceedings of the House yesterday.
• : a boi-terous and acrimonious cl.arac
tT. Mr. Cu-ry. of Alabama, made what is
i TI- teclinica'dy termed a " Spread Eagle
j. He proclaimed himself for seces
i i.suni n in case a " black Republi
•m is s the habitual designation of the
•-'publican party by Southern men—should
elected President.
A ,ow me t.> :isk them whether if" such a
m,n 'i- Mr. Bates, of Missouri, should be
d President, they would consider that as
■Miflioient cause for dissoh ithe L'tiion 1 1
Kn w they will an wer aye; hut in reply, the
great mass of people, even of the South, will
i ij' a : the i n; ai shall stand; let no ruthless
hue; at" mpt to tear its bands asunder. But
s ' atf i of things is terrible ;it is creating
tiie iiiti'-resr hostility between the people of
da-tc tarns. Mr. Clingtnan in his speech
1 1 s - sate, ■n M •nday, said that that was
1 ' !"• *" :n the tot.fliet; that was the
f" r the first blood to be shed 1 Men
Wi - 1 niter su i; sentiments—what pun

omiy ; wfi , woubl deluge the country
wit a bk.wl. and in their fury tear down the
: Mlest fabric ever erected by man,
W ASHINUION, Jan. 19, 1800.
Instead of improving, I think things are
fitting worse here every day. Members,
t' ill of the Senate and of the House, are be
' 'Hung more and more ultra ; more and more
" m l'ered: more and more discourteous and
Ui~rr sp.rctful, and more and more, and more
"•I' t m .re given to the use of language which
i- !.i r becomes a gentleman, nor is fitting
national halls of legislation. Many of the
siembers are, at times, but little better than
'ii'iies and clowns in their manners and bin
instead of inspiring respect in the
'•'''•■■les. inspire nothing but disgust and con
tempt. "
Mr. Pryor, of \ irginia, applied, several
• M ir t<:rla f a^e ' in an offensive manner,
. * r - Hickman. He was very properly eal
'■'J to order by his colleague, Mr, Millsou, but
• .iUiil the word with emphasis, after being
H ' t,J or, i er - He knew very well that Mr.
• Miian was not one of those who settle of
rJonal character by the duello.
' ""1 li(i ' ,ave applied the same term in the
-mti insulting manner to Mr. llill, of Ocor
• r Queries, of Tenn., or any other South
n man whom he knew to be a lighting man?
lt s not at all probable.
i.tie observed that the most offensive and
<, ', nt * ' ;in ?JJage used by Southern men, is
if s \ a! ' t( f? applause from
■ • out hern Democrats and a portion of the
" . 'Minion sentiments and disloyalty
, '," on p pldom go unapplauded by that
. , House, und by their claqucrs in
~ ' r -'- i here is no mistaking the mean
l this; there is no mistaking it to mean
■*; large portion, if not the whole of the
-i diom Democratic members arc disunioc
ists, and would be rejoiced to see the Govern- '
ment broken up. That this is their feeling I
have not the shadow of a doubt, an 1 yet the
Democrats iroui the North net cordially with
them, and are really driven hv them hv the
whip and goad like so manv oxen - r odor
working cattle.

AN AsmxuTox, Jan. 22, 1300.
It is conceded even by his political oppo- ,
nents, fir lie has no enemies, that Mr. Slier
man's remarks, on Friday, iu regard to the j
attitude he now stands in towards that body
of men who may one of these days constitute j
the House of Representatives, were manly,
dignified, and proper. #IIe stated explicitly to
Mr. Clark, of Missouri, that if he would with
draw, oven temporarily, his menacing resolu
tion, declaring that any man who endorsed or
recommended the Helper Book, was not fit '
to be Speaker of the House, he would give |
full explanations, and say how far lie approv
ed or disapproved any and every passage from ;
that hook which might he read from the
Clerk's table. He further stated that he had
never, himself, signed the paper recoinmen- |
ding that hook ; that his friend, Mr. Morgan,
of N. Y., then a member of the House, came j
to him when he was busy, and asked him to
sign the paper; that he replied he did not j
know what the book contained, hut if there I
was nothing improper in it, he, Mr. M , might
use his name, and thus it was that his name I
came to appear among those who recommen
ded the hook.
Mr. Clark refused to withdraw the offensive
resolution, and thus showed that he does not
desire a satisfactory explanation from Mr.
Sherman ; that his object is to give offence,
and to prevent, not to promote an organize
tion of the House. Mr. Clark gained few
laurels in this matter, while Mr. Sherman
raised himself in the estimation of all, even
his warm political opponents. It is under
stood (fiat his whole course fu reference to
this e""r*'ie(ft, is approved and commended by
some genlfclnen on the Democratic side,
whose judgment, fairness and snse of pro
priety none will question : and among these
I think I may venture to say is (Jen. Millson,
of \ irginia—lie, who to preserve the dignity
of the house, felt it to be his duty to cail his
colleague, Mr. Pry or, to order, when he appli
ed tlie term FALSE, in an offensive manner, to
what Mr. Hickman had said.

We refer to

administered with the most satis
factory results to various Animals
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS,
For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS,
all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTS, SICK
HEAD-ACME, &C. In c.isc J of
FEVER AND AGUE,
preparatory to or after taking Qui
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men*
tioncd diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and never known to fail \vhen ad
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has indued the proprietors,
