The resolutions sustaining the ac
tion of the United Stittes Senate in
reinstating Hon. E. M. SrArrox, Sec
retary of War,being under considera
tion in the State Senate, Mr. LANDON
made a most effective, eloquent and
powerful speech, commanding the
attention and applause of a crowded
Chamber. The " State Guard " no
tices it in the following complimen

"To say t it ranked with
Mr. Landon is best orts, ill to bestow
upon it high prai , in view of the
tact that ; he o superiors and few
equals in'Pennsylvania--as a popiilar
orator.! Bloquent diction, forci
ble in argument, and pronounced
with impressive earnestness; it com
manded much attention throughout,
from Senators and a crowded audience
of ladies and gentlemen. Mr. L's
ponderous logic and off-hand, strik
ing illustrations served to dissipate
into thin air the fallacious reasoning
of his competitors in debate, and to
clearly establish the justice , and le
gality of the course of the Senate in
Washington."
We trust that we shall have an op
portunity at an early day, to afford
the_ readers of the RKPOWIER the plea
sure of seeing this great speech in its
columns.
