The Eleetton of a Speaker.
The contest in regard to the Speakership
of tho American House of Representatives
has at list terminated; and those who, in their
anxiety at the protracted struggle, and 'grim
at the angry and exciting passages which
masked some stages of it, were almost led to
fear that it would never find a constitutional
termination, and that it might even lead to a
dissolution of the Tinton, will be gratified to
know. that all these forebodings have been
completely dissipated, and that a Speaker his
been conducted to the chair In the most quiet
and orderly manner. Stormy as some 'of the
debates which preceded the election have
been, we' incline to think that, in some re
spects at lout, they have not been unproduc
tive of good results ; for, however bolsterom
our political demonstrations are, there is still
a species of conservittion In the wide range of
freedom of 'speech tolerated and enjoyed in
our country. Though the expression of
radical, and even of treasonable sentiments,
which is permitted, may vex and griev't
• the hearts of patriots, their utterance act,
•
as a sort of safety valve for the escape as
dangerous thoughts, which, if they had in
such expression in words, might' dad vent
in treasonable actions. The American Con
gress, representing as it does all' shade,
of political opinion, cud all the varied in
terests of the Confederacy, is composed os
men who, upon the floor of Congress
have given utterance, in a frank and fearless
tone, to the sentiments of their constituents•
', Ilovrsver ridiculous some of these opinion
-may be, their announcement has been a sourer
of gratification to those who entertain them :
and they hare exercised an amount of info•
ence approximating to their intrinsic value
and importance, in forming the groat volume
of American sentiment which will dictate the
character of the future legislation of the coun
try. •
The struggle for the Speakership was so
protracted, that a very general deeire*as cre
ated for its termination in some way or other
and even the. most decided partisans had be
come Impressed with the conviction that, as ,
organization adverse to their own polities;
wishes was preferable to continued disorgani
aation. The angry elements of discord have.
to a great extent, boon exhausted by the con
flict ; and the asperities of feeling cherished
in extreme ;sections has been softened by the
tenor of the events which have transpired
upon the floor of Congress, and by the con
vlction'that the highest interests of the nation
demanded a speedy organization, that the pub. business might be properly considered.
The gentleman upon whom the choice 01
the Molise has fallen, Mr. Ezmantorost, 01
`New Jersey, is personally well qualified foi
the Speakership, as he, bas filled hereto
fore, with dignity and success, many im
portant positions, among which are those
of Governor, Chancellor, and presiding of
ficer of the Senate of New Jersey. lio in
supposed to bo somewhat conservative in hit
views, and In regard to the question of the.ta
riff; ho fully shares the predominant sentiment
of our State. This is a consideration of deep
Importance to all Pennsylvanians, and, when
viewed in connection with the fact that the
members from, our State cherish an ardent
hope of securing at the present session, a mo
dification of the tariff advantageous to our In
dustrial interests, will be highly gratifying to
the great body of our citizens, irrespective of
mere, partisan considerations.
There is no doubt that an overwhelming
majority of the American people are opposed
to the policy of the present National Adminis
tration. This feeling of antagonism found
ample expression in the election of the meta.
Um of the present Rouse of Representatives,
and it was but proper that tbil force and effect
should be given to it in the organization of the
Rouse. The number of members who might
strictly he-termed Administration men do not
form one-third of the present Congress. In
the contests for• Speaker no semblance of
success or of unity was obtained by those op
posed to the Republican members, except by
uniting their votes upon Mr. Surat, the can
didate of the South Americans, or upon Mr.
McOuntrann, a Doormas Representative
from Illinois. Inasmuch as the Administra
tion was thus emphatically ignored In the
House, it was but right that date weight shoUld be
given to the strong popular anti-Administration
feeling existing throughout the whole country,
and that the intense desire which prevails
among the American people to unveil its cor•
raptions, to place before the country a full
history 'of its Infamies, and to maintain in tn.
tura a strict guard- over its Measures, should
bavo been gratified.

WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
Letter from 44 Ezok Richards."
Correspondence of Tho Promo
WASIIINGTOI7, February 1, 1880
Governor Pennington °moo within one on the
ballot yesterday; it being tutderstood that Briggs,.
of New York, having the power in his hands to
make a Speaker, desired to carry that rosponslbl•
lily about with him, for at least one night. By this
means be Bemired the attention of the whole pity,
and to be. even fora day, the observed of all the
observers in this city of celebrities, is almost glory
enough for the ambition of any moderate man.
Mr. Briggs has distlootly, and more than on one
oceesion, &dared that when his vote mild sleet
he - would vote for Mt. Pennington—so, as I write,
the clerk calls !' George Briggs," and George an
swers, John A. MoCiernand." Some oonsterna
tion follows, and an evident feeling that the big
and burly gentlemen from the Seventh &atria of
New York is eh:qua/kg. no will probably change
hie vote when he sees that, as Sherrard Clemens
has just admitted, Mr. Pennington will be elected;
but I anticipate. ,
. Thebnsinesswas opened in the Rowe to•day
with sprayer in the Jewish persuasion. delivered
by Rabbi Raphael, of New York, dressed in full it
noideals, chars° tees tie of the priests of the Old Tee•
Lament. The body of the prayer or eervloo was
in Znglish and a email 'portion in the Hebrew
tongue.
An hour and more was ocoppled in nailing the
roll, and other means wallowing time. Daring
the ballot Several gentlemen ro•delined their post•
Mr. Lawrence M. Kent took the opportunity of
this being probably the last ballot to put an inter.
rogatory which he would not dream of doing but
that Certain actors of the other side, on Friday
last, invited ft. He alluded to 11'. Joy Monte, who
gave as a reran for changing his vote from Smith,
of North Carolina, that he could get no settee°.
tory promise from Mr. Smith as to how he would
construct the Committee of Ways and Means,
.havirg in view the interests of Pennsylvania. That
gentleman now voting for Gov. Pennington, it was
to be inferred that he had received some pledge or
promise from him on the subject. He wished to
know if- this were so. The position was not to be
trafficked for. Mr. 'teat dwelt forcibly on this,
Mr. B. Joy Morris had an impulse to make some
explanations, but he was restrained by his friends.
Sir. Suit! referred to Mr. Shorman'e "valedic
tory," which bad' represented the Demooraoy as
demoralised. The gentleman from South Carolina
leered to turn the tables on the late Republican
candidate. It was the Republioan party that was
temoralised. The Repoblioans bad to take down
the name of their straight.out candidate, anti adopt
that of a gentleman who was in favor of the
fugitive•elave law; a man mho, as Governor
of Hew Jersey, had endorsed it, and who now
will not oppose it. The successor of Joshua It
Giddings had to vote for him. Yes, they had to
rive up their ultra candidate, and accept an old
lino Whig, who was In favor of the fugitive-slave
law. Which party, then, was the most demo.
ranted? The gentleman from South Carolina
made a telling little speech, and delivered it with
more than aerial grace and power• I think it was
decidedly the most telling effort on Mr. Heitt,'s
side made this whole session.
Mr. Barksdale, of Miesissippt, disclaimed being
a pannier or even %natter soverolgnAnd his vote
for McCleniend should not convict him of being
one. Be voted for the gentleman from Illinois
because the latter bed • been in canons with the
()emanate, and had given his support faithfully to
them to defeat the Republioans. At this point Real
prompted Barksdale, and the latter made an appoal
to the Booth Americans, informing them most
svphatloally that Mr. MoOleruand would yet be
41eated over Mr. Pennington of they would vote
fot him. Mr. Leach, one of those so touchingly
Nured, wee willing to vote with ids party. John
1. Gilmer showed that no combination oonld defeat
c'erinlngton. Then Barksdale thought that if the
{oath Morita= voted with the Democrats they
oald defeat Pennington, but, added, Mallory
hey tonna elect MoOlernand. Barksdale de
dred to stare off Penningion's election, as Mr.
itallwprth would be hero—ha a fey days—[laugh

In justice tq myself, and to that party, I felt my
self bound to return that act of generosity by vo•
ling for their candidate, Mr. MoGioruand. I have
Mona so twice; but it is new evident, and proved be
yond a doubt, that If all the votes of his own and ma
party ware thrown for him, he could not be elected
I have now discharged every obligation upon me
with faithfulness and tionsistenoy, and am now free
to am for myself end the ountitry, and to Wit thy
other statements which I hare made, that I weal
vote for any sound conservative man of any party
when my vote would elect, in order that the Go vern
meat might its relieved. The time has now cow
when I clan do so Governor Pennington now bee
116 votes, Wl,l in will elect him. I have said,
as I stated before, that oordd Tote fur him.
For general reasons I could not vote for the

so, ho would not hove been elected. In the vote I
am about to give, I desire it shall be dietinetly us.
