lav's voto indicated some chance of electing
ns Spanker a man of sound nutionnl views, lit
now offered a rcsolutiuu to that effect.
A motion to lay it on tho table was nega
tived by 10 tnajmity.
The plurality resolution was tlirn adopted,
by n vote of 1 13 yeas to 104 nays. The tin
nciunccuicot was hailed with much applause.
Mr. Orr unconditionally withdrew his name
ai tho Democratic caucus candidate, there

of greater strength upou his colleague, M r.
Aiken.
Mr. Boice, moved to rescind tho resolution.
Tho motion was hi id cm the table yens

Mr. Jones of Tennessee, referring to the
terms of tho resolution, that, if there shall be
no election by a majority on tho next three

in order to givo the opportunity to other
gentlemen to come here iinderslniidingly,
moved an adjournment till Monday.

Tho motion was disagreed to, and great
Applause from the galleries followed.
Mr. Orr, said if the House was to bo an

would move to rl:ar them, excepting those
occupied by ladies.
Mr. Payne made nn ineffectual motion to
rescind tho plurality resolution.
Tho IIouso then proceeded to again ballot

Messrs. Unrchy and Hickman. Pemorrats,
voted for Mr. Wells, and Messrs. Piinn,
Harrison, Moore and fc'cott for Mr. Camp
bell, of Ohio.
Necessary to a choice 103.
Tho next vote, with the exception that
Mr. Puller lost one, was the same as the first.
The. third voto was tho same as the second,
excepting that Mr. Aiken lost one.
Mr. Puller, of Pernio-., repeated what he
had said on two former occasions, namely,
that ho was not and did not desirn to bo a
candidate. One hundred and thirty votes
had satisfied him that ho was not the choice
of a majority of this body, and ou no other
terms or conditions would he consent to take j
that position.
51 r. Barclay remarked that Lc had boon
averse to anything liko a coalition with
Know Nothingism. whether it came from tho
North or tho South. He asked Mr. Aiken
whether ho (Mr. A.) stood on the Democrat
ic platform, and whether ho had not written
a letter to Humphrey Marshall, making
pledges to the Southern wing of tho Know
Nothings.
Mr. Aiken I am not n candidate, If my
friends think proper to place me in the Chair,
1 will serve them ta the best of my ubility.
3.ir. Humphrey Marshall 1 have only to
jay that Mr. Aikeu has addressed me no
letter whatever, Applause and cries of
'Call the roll !" while me most iutenso ex
citement prevailed.
Mr. A. K. Marshall, during the call of tho
Toll, congratulated his American friends that
they have fought the good fight and conquer
ed. There was no Democratic candidate in
the field with the olj-nsive caucus platform
It was id performing his duty as a patriot,
and not as a partisan, that he had voted for
Mr. Aiken.
M r. Walker voted in the same way. es
teeming Mr. A ikeu a man with no stains of
iriero partisanisui on his skirts; a man who
has not sought the oflire, but to whom the
office is tendered, aud who is true to the
Constitution.
Messrs. Poino and Lindley voted for Mr.
Aiken, knowing him to be a national man.
Mt. Smith, of Ala., voted for Mr. Aiken
tinder protest.
Other gentlemen vaiuly sought the oppor
tunity for explanations amid tho confusion.
The call of the roll having been completed,
several members changed their votes, uud for
so doing were greeted with tippluuso.
Impatient cries nf "Announce the vote !"
followed. Tho lobbies and galleries were
densely crowded, and tho excitement ut this
point was increased by a startling cry that a
boy was being crushed to death by the pres
sure of tho crowd above, Some members
shouted '-Pall back !" and others, "Hand him
over the rail." The boy was liually released
from his imminent danger, itnd "Announce
the vote !" wai again shouted from all sides
of the House.
Tho Cierlt announced the vote :
conlerred upon me. It would afford far
fjrentcr pleasure were it accompanied even
iy the self-assuraiico that I would bring to
the discharge .or the arduous and delicate
duties, always difficult, but now environed
with unusual difficulties, nny capacity com
mensurate with their responsibility and dig
nity. 1 can only say that I shall bear myself,
so far as possible, with fidelity to the inter
csts and institutions of the country and the
government, and with impartiality, so far as
regards tho rights of the members of this
House. I have no personal objects to ac
complish, I am animated by a single desire of
contributing, in some little degree, to the
maintenance of the well established principles
of our government in their original American
signification ; in developing that portion of
the continent we occupy, so fur as we may do
within the power conferred on us, enlarging
and swelling its capacities for bcuificctit in

neither myself nor any other man is equal to

presence, a suppliant for vour indulgence and
support. I again return you my thanks for
the honor conferred upon me. (Applause,
ileaii inng anil long continued.)
Mr. Kidding.", being tho oldest member of
the llonse, administered the oath to Mr.
Hanks by request of the Clerk.
Mr. Stanton offered a resolution that the
thanks of the 1 louse are eminently due, nnd
arc hereby tendered to John W. Forney, for
the distinguished ability, fidelity and impar

Mr. Jlenson, one of the tellers, decided
Mr. Banks elected Speaker.
The niiuouticentent was received with dea
feiiing shouts on the Republican side and in
other quarters, and the waving of haudker
chiefs by the ladies in the galleries. Several
minutes of wild disorder followed.
Mr. A. K. Marshall raised a question that
M r. Ranks waa not elected. The Clerk had
no power to authorize such a result to bo an
nounced. It must Ue so decided by a vote
ofthe House.
The Clerk explained, giving reasons which
appeared to be satisfactory for his conduct.
Mr. Campbell, of U , appealed to the hon
or of gentlemen to curry the plurality reso.
iiition into ell'ect, and eud -tho disgraceful
struggle.
ii r. Cobb, of Ga., regarded Mr. Ranks as
a-uHujdiy elected by a majority of the House
under the plurality rule.
Mr. -Aiken abked to bo allowed to conduct
Mr. R&ukx, as ' Speaker, to the Chair.
(Applause.)
Tliere us much confusion dur'ng these

Mr. Smith, of Ala., highly appreciated Mr.
Aiken's request, if grauteil, h -though:! it
would heal the divisions, und pour oil on the
troubled waters. When grown nji meu make
a child's bargain, they ought tv fctick to it.

liuJer it, Nathaniel P. Punks has been duly
choseu .Speuker, and is hereby so declared.
Tbo resolution was udopttd yeas 156,
tiaws 30.
Several gentlemen explained that though
they had consistently voted against Mr.
Ranks, they felt bound, as judges, and uot
electors, to carry out the order of the House
by voting for the above resolution.
Mr. Rauks wus then, by the request of tbt
Clerk, conducted to tlia Cbair by Messrs.
Aiken, Puller, of Pa., aud Campboll. of O..
amid profound silence, succeeded by hearty
cheer.
When tho applause subsided, Mr. Eaaki
adilreod the House, as follows :

MR. SEW AIID OX A WAR WITH EftGt.AXD.
Mr. Seward concluded his speech in the
Senate on Thursday, with the following refer-
I ci ef to a war with P.nglnnd :
lie thought a war with Great lsntain
among the possible contingencies of the
present embarrassment. We certainly con
lock for no moderation on the part of Great
Itritain hereafter, if we overlook her persistent
refusal to fulfil this the most solemn and
important of nil our international engage
ments. It will bo an idle dream to suppose
ourselves free and safe if wo leave her to way.
lay us on all sides of all our Isthmus possages,
from our Atlantic region to the Pacific
Slates.
Nor do I fear a war, having justice nnd
hieh State necessity on our side. We out
number the population of the ltritish Islands.
Their dependencies detract from, instead of
lending slrenutb. Although we have less
realized wealth, we have infinitely crenter
j resources than those of Great Piitain ; and
cur revenues, susceptible of large increase,
are practically free. Our recruiting ground
is ample, as Great Itritain well knows, for
she has tried to enter it clandf stinelv. If
there were any deficiency of native volunteers,
Great Piitain herseK, os well os other Kuro
pean nations, has supplied uswilh this ele
ment of war. We have a corps of military
officers unequalled, and we have the founda
tions of an effective navy that can speedily!
be built up and put in motion.
In view ofthe circumstances, it seems to
mo w ise to adhere to our demands, and yet
to cast on Great Rritnin distinctly tho re
sponsibility of deciding upon pence or war.
Soino would advise us to propose arbitration ;
but I think wo have passed that point alrea
dy. It would imply doubt of the rightfulness
of the positions on which we have elected to
stand as claimants out of possession. .Such
indention would bo equivalent to abandon
ment. Resides, I dj ot know where we
could find nn impartial empire in the present
disturbed condition of Knrope.
1 do not think that Great P.ritain will
choose a resort to war. Her Government,
haioly less than our own, is a popular one.
This controversy grows out of a caprice of
her own administration. A war would em
barrass her prosperous industrial system, and
could bring lo her in return no adequate ad
vantage, even if she were successful. My
counsel, therefore, is a notice to Great Rritnin
that we shall interfere to prevent her txer
eise of dominion in Central America, if it
shall not be discontinued within one year,
nnd also that authority be now given to" tho
President to execute that delayed purpose.
Great Rritaiu may reconsider, may pro
pose to us a reference or some other amicable
adjustment. 1 would be ready to hear, and
to go to tho very verge of accommodation.
Rut this disposition, 1 think, ought not to
persuade us to inactivity.
If the wisdom of Congress Fhall approve
this course, then the intervening time can be
well and wisely improved. No sagacious
nation will ever hazard all its loreign domin
ion or influence, or the integrity of its terri
tory, without bringing nil its rower into ex
ercise A nation that strikes for continental
supremacy must at once render itself self-
sustaining and independent. Refore we ex
pose California and Oregon to the hazurds of
a war with the urst naval power in tho world,
we must at least begiu what has been ton
long delayed already, tho construction of
railroads from tho Western borders of the
Mississippi States to our ports ou the Pa
cific. Although the controversy arises ou
tho shores of thn Caribbean Sea, yet tho
Held ol contest will now, as heretolore, lie
north of the St. Lawrence. Canada caiiuot
be conquered against her will. Sho cur. nut
refuse if vou tender her annexation ou just
terms, with indemnity Tor the struggle tho
mav expect with Great liritaui.
I have tuns expressed my opinions with
lianldiess. ISut 1 urn uot tenacious ot them
ail. 1 invoke equil frankness and the broud
est patriotism ou all sides of this chamber
and in nil parts or the country. If these
shall be fully exercised, this day will inaugu

that James P. Ross, formerly iu tho employ

The peculiarity of this invention, consists in
dispensing eutirely with the crank; jlying

in their stead a very cheap and simple ar
rangement, by which the movement, of tho
ralve is ederted, so as to govern and control
the action of tbe steam in its passage to and
