XXXYITII COIGRESS.4IIIST SESSION.
U. S. OAPITOb i lirittiM , OTOlf, Doe. 10.
There was no tension of ,the Sedate todayr that
body having adjourned over till Monday:
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
On motion of Mr. Nineeme of Indiana, it was
resolved that, till the election of a Speaker, the
Clerk of the last Howe be authorised to exercise
the PoWer devolving on the Speaker for preserving
orate iteelos galleries and on th e poor of the Howe,
for Ow ihn'e nedee ,the rube of the last
Holm, and that the Sergeant-at-Arms for a like
mrepostbe under therdireetion of the clerk.
Mr. Dertiletf,uf South Oarolbia, said the whole
countrj , were anxiously looking to the asPeolof ef
fete.here, and inquiring why we did not elect a
sik
Spoer. • 'The reason was that the majority of the
Hones Were tolerating to place in that chair an en
dorser of the .infamous Helper book, nee doom
tesmeenrea notified in !misting his election by all
fair arid honorable means. ,He tad nothing to say
ogabiseMr.lieterman personally, but referred to
hire end 'cordially assented to the rat:.
Intion,that beithet ho nor any other man who en
dorsed Helene; work was fit for Sneaker.
_ believed that it was a fetal error when the
latesouri Coinpromise was accepted by the South,
for it had only enoouratted Northern aggressions
wind elatery. He reTerred to Mr. lifokruan as
renegade to his Parte.. When he voted for Mr.
Douglas's motion to reject the Senate bill for the
admission of Kansas all supposed he would finally
land' on the •Repstbllean lido. Although he has
i , inee claimed to be a Democrat, his vote yesterday
for Mr. Sherman settled the question that he is no
loner a Democrat. It been sought to elect a
Speaker by the plurality rule, which he believed
unoonstitationtd, for the reason that none but a
neiceity amid elect a Speaker. It had been said
that there were precedents for its adoption, but
the oirsumetuces,were different than trom whet
they are now. Mr. Banks had not refused as hod
Mr. Sherman, 'to repudiate the teachings of
Helper's book,• ter the abolition of slavery and tor
insurrection.• ,` • ,
In reedy to Mr. Eloitnian, he field the South
claimed to have the right to carry elavery into the
common Territories and have it protected, like
other property, by Territorial law, and not re
fusing to afford that protection by positive hos
tile ,ensatment. The South, while denying the
right of Congreaa or of the 'Territorial Legislature,
to abolieh, prohibit, or establish slavery la the
Territories, elaim that it is the duty of Congress
and. the Territorial authorities to protect it while
there. Ho replied to Mr. Nelson, more, he said,
in sorrow than in anger, and refuted the common
out that _President Jackson put down nullifies.
Lion. - He also defended`Solab Carolina and her
course at that period. That gentleman (Mr. Nel
son) had spoken of the Union as more important
than the Constitution ; but those whom Ito (Mr.
Realism) represented look to every part of
the Constitution as more important than the
'anion. The gentleman from Pennsylvania
(Mr, Hickman) has spoken of forcing the
South back into the Union, should she prefer to re
tire ,• but whenever it in found expedient to do so,
the Onion: no longerextets. He said without hesita
tion, that on the eleotion of Mr. Seward, or any man
who endorses his claims and holds the sentiments
declared by Mr. Seward, call the party by what
name you please, he was in favor of immediate die
anion, and he thought he spoke the sentiments of
his entire State. How, then, could It be expected
that the Southern gen tlemen will consent to the
election of Mr. Sherman, who comes here reeking
with the pollution of doctrines adverse to Southern
interests_. The resolution of err. Clark, of Mis
souri, was proper under these circumstances, and
he warned gentlemen that they would preserve the
institution of slavery or perish in the endeavor.
Hie
_patriotism began at home, and he was for
South Caroline against the :world.
Mr. Muttn; made an explanallon, denying that
hoover said that any man who endorsed Helper's
book was unfit to live.
Air. Cleanses, of Virginia, wanted the House to
proceed to a vote for Speaker, and objected to gen
tlemen being compelled to sit here for five boors in
enter to give their brethren an opportunity to ven
tilate their rhetoric. He gave nodes that he shall
retire from the hail whenever he was physically
disabled front attendance. If he could not get
" a pair," his friends would have to do without ids
vote.
The Clark stated that having been empowered
by the Rouse to suppress disorder both on the floor
and in the galleries, he should dierharge his duty,
bat hoped no case would arise compelling him to
exercise the authority thus oonforred.
Mr. Sums, of Kentucky, said Brown's foray into
rirgiala has been followed by a crusade against
the • rights of the whole South. He would speak
plainly, and, tell the gentlemen on the other
side, that from "the very foundation of the Go
vernment'there has been a diseased public eon-
Swint in the Northern States on the subject
of slavery ,, He spoke of th e continued aggressions
of the Reenblioan party on tho fietttli. The Repub
licans number more than one hundred men en this
floor—men of obareeter and influence, who have
sought, on the stomp and elsewhere, to diffuse
opinions 'praotically leading to the nullification
of the fugitive-slave law, and bring contempt
on the Supreme Court, because it has dreamed
that Congress has no power to restrict slavery
or exolude it from new Territories. The ba
lance of power in the United States Senate—
once deemed a safeguard by the South—has
been lost, and the Northern preponderance will be
still further bowed by the admission of other
'new States. Nothing I 4 now heft between the
South and her assailants bet the Delnooratic party
and the Constitution of the United States, se ex
pounded by the Supreme Court. The Abolition
urty in the North - baying failed to reach slavery
in the. South by direct legislation, have sought to
overthrow it by insurrection by poisoning the
publio mind of the North, and by keeping up a
constant theft and _robbery on that speeles of
propertrat the South, by scattering incendiary
documents throughout -the land, and - by elevating
to the highest nubile trusts peen who proclaim that
there is ' irrepressible" omelet between slave
and free labor. He was no disunionist, nut woeld
ask, Is there to be no limit to these attache en the
flonth? Were they to bow their neck., and, like
conquered provinces be deepened of their property ,
without redress? If the,Union in to be preserved ,
there Mast be a. COUILIOII of these wrongs op '.
the, &nth.' He proceeded ,to reply to Mr.
Mr. Riokman's remarks about the South violat
ing its emnprornises—denying the charge. For fifty
years the Sontit bed remonstrated time and again,
and have all the time hope yielding their constitu.
Copal rights. The Coutitatem was formed by
Northern and Southern men, When I wet signed
the fernier had the right to sell their slain
in the Southern States, and did so. Southern
men had the right to keep their slaves, and
purchase those of. Northern mos, and did
so.-' Northern men took the money they
received for their slaves, and Invested it in
houses, iambi, merchandise, and commerce. To
this day they have that property and the profits on
it, and yet they tern round and denounce the
south because they retain the — property sold them
by the North. At that time the ring of the cash
was dearer to their hearts than the clank of the
bondsman's chain was Oppressive to their eon-
Winne. - ' lf there be in that burning like where

torah of the Incendiary in onohend. and the dag
ger of the assassin in the other, would Invade even
the Capitol of the nation, and Amid its fallen co-'
lemma exult in tho desolation they had
caused. Unless the North ceased to invade
the rights of the South, they would bo pre

the last forty rem they have solunitted to these
things for the sake of this Union. Althougb emart

Al the repreeentallre of a Uod-roaring, Union
loving, law-abiding people, he 'entered his solemn
protest against the ten thousand wrongs commit.
ted on the South. He charged the Republioan
party uheing the canoe of these daggers - hanging'
over the eountry. He was no alarmist—no dis
unionist. • For the Union he would peril •his life,

Firmness of the Condemned on the Scaffold
CnAILUTOWN, Dom W—We have had an exalting
time during the past twenty-four hours, which has Just
closed with the execution of the four prisoners.
In order to give a correct understanding of what has
transpired, we furnish a auceinot narrative of the
events since yesterday morning.
ARRIVAL OF, STRANGERS, Erg.
Throughout the day. yesterdsy_, there was a great in
flux of strangere and citizens of the county, w ho - were
hooking in to witness the last act ear l yh Harper's Fer
ry tragedy. The latter came thusy, apprehending
that they 'relight he detained at the out se was the
cite* on the day of John Brown's execution, •
The olouda which early In the morning darkened the
horizon were soon dispersed, and the gun mime mit in
unusual btillianoy and - beauty for December morning.
As the . bourn advanced, groups wero seen en ail the
street corners, disoogging the all-absorbing topic of the
approaching execution. The afteroon train, of ears
from Winchester end Harper's F erry brought a large
nurober of_persone, including a delegation of newspaper
reporters from the Northern cities.
The vigilance exercised at the railway depot, on the
arrival of a train, was not so stringent an op the (Ma
nion of the execution of Brown , and but little difficulty
was experienoedin getting in town, although the diffi
culty was not so light in obtaining aocommodatione after
effecting an entrance,.
A GRAND DRESS
Shortly after the arrival of the train in the afternoon.
a grand military dress parade of all the companies In at
teridance took place,.
The place selected for the parade was the immense
field on which Brown was exouted, and on which the
gallows for the (mention ot the remaining erisoners
was being erected. The companies were drilled into
four battalions the whole body being under the com
mand of Col. Weigerberger, of the Iletersbure Regi
ment; Meet. Israel Green. of the United States =-
noels, acting as adjutant,
The troops went through their evolutions with great
skill, and were reviewed by General Tallithim, who
wag On the ground in full dress, and mounted un a
spirited charger. Everything conspired to make the
display a grand one. The bright bayonets and gay uni
forms of the eoldiers combined to perfect a picture.
A very large crowd of spectators was in attend moo,
amongstutom there were a large number of ladies. who
ocoupled their handsome equipages to the east of the
li tinng the time of the parade a compan. of cavalry
entered the town.. They came from Mddlebury, Lo p

county. and are under:the command of Captain
Carter.
THE PRISONERS fESTERDAY.
The engeners were visited yeeterdsv afternoon by
the ftev. ,Meeirs. Waeson• Dutton, and North, of the
Preabyterpin Church. and Rev, Beverly Waugh, of the
Merhodiet Episcopat Chu oh.
The seryion in the cell, were of an interesting' red
solemn character, and were partiolpated in by all the
condemned; though it is now evident. from subsequent
events, that Cook and Covell', at least, were' playing

thought that come of the witnesses were rather harsh
in their testimony.
The ministers imagined that they had due:levered a
decidedly favorable change in the condition of Cook's
mind since his interview with his sisters. Up to that
time his calmness and bravery were regarded as pro

Join S. CLARK'S CELEBRATED PARLOR Stmts.
Of the numerous tempting things now (+spewed by our
merchants, there are none more suitable for a substan
tial gilt than the beautiful and economic stoves manu
factured and sold, by John S. Clark, Esq., at his ware
rooms, No. 1008 Market street, above Tenth. The great
reputation attained by Silver's patent has been widely
increased by the improvements made upon it by Mr.
Clark. The now Patent Urn which he has this smarm
attached to the toy of the stove, answering at once the
double purpose of ventilation and regulating the heat of
the stove, is a pretty ornament, and by its practical
utility will. In a short time, save the pries of a store to
the consumption of fuel, which is less than half the
quantity required for ordinary stoves. Independent of
the Improvements Mr. Clark has effected. his style of
manufacturing the Silver's Cas•consuming Stove is
more desirable than any other in use, front their Ir/eau
durability, as Mr. Clark uses only the best Quark,' of
Russia sheet-iron in their ennatruotton, purchased, we
understand, by him directly fromthe importer. We may
mention also, that these admirable stoves are furnished
in all the various sines, suitable for parlors, dining
rooms, chambers or offices; and for all who are in want
those here referred to are decidedly preferable to any
other,.
E. G. WIIITHAN tt Co.'s CONPECTIONEM—Of
all the prominent Christmas novelties now being dis
cussed in domestic circles, we hazard the assertion
that few are receiving as much interested attention as
the luscious confectionery manufactured and sold by
Meagre. E. t 3. Whitman k Co., Second street, below
Chestnut. Their holiday stook a now complete, and
Droeenb tho most tempting array, by all odds, in that
line of trade, to be found In this city. Their store pre
sents the appearance of a Power-garden in its varied
hues, no less than in the rich aroma which makes the
very atmosphere delicious. Their confectionery has
natty the reputation of being the purest and finest fa
vored manufactured in this country.
ESIILNKAN'S CRAVATB.—Ladies within to our
PTISO their gentlemen friends in an agreeable way, can
do so with great propriety by enolosing, with their
compliments, one of Esnims:t's INIMIIABLI CIA-
Tara. sold at his Cravat Palace, No. e 76 Chestnut street,
(Jayne's Hall.) His stook of art rtes for the neok, and,
in fact, gents' furnishing goods in general. has been se
lected with excellent taste, and deserves the attention
of the ladies.
. . .
A l'ltidENT WORTH HAVINH—SIId, we may add,
Present worth tiring—such is our verdict upon the
beautifully finished Family firiOt Machines, known
all over the world u the HARES BOPDOIM," and for
which Mr. B. D. Baker, N 0.770 Arch street, is the sole
agent in this city. For Amity use this instrument is
decidedly preferable to all others yet invented, and it is
on these grounds that we recommend them to the spe
cial attention of present•buyers.
GENTLEHAWA WHAPPERA iron HOLIDAY Chore.
—The house of Mears. R. C. Walborn it Co , now
Noe. g and 7 North Sixth street. presents the finest dis
play of goods suitable for pimento to be made by ladies
to gentlemen that we have yet seen in our perambals

up In exquisite taste, and are justly attracting popular
attention. In addition to these, their stook contains
many other seasonable novelties.
