our most hearty approval, and that we regard such
en immense moniej power anti-republican, aud
hostile to our institutions.
Resohed, That we are perfectly satisfied with the
ticket formed by the late county convention) that
we have entire confidence in the ability, integrity,
and democratic principles of David B. Montgomery,
and the candidates nominated by the convention,
and that we will give them our undivided support.
Resolved, That the delegate acted fairly and ho
norably in the formation of the ticket, and that the
attempt to divide the Democratic party of this coun
ty, during the present important gubernatorial con
test, deserves the severest reprehension. That the
only effect of such an attempt will be to elect a
whig, and an opponent of Gov, Porter; and whe
:ther prompted by private animosity, individual dis
appointment, or a real desire by these means to e
lect Gen. Frirk, the whig candidate, such conduct
is equally treacherous to the Democratic party, and
hostile to its future ascendency in the county.
Resolved, That we highly approve of the course
puisucd by the lion. John Snyder, during the last
session of Congress.
Resolved, That the following named persona be
a Committee of Vigilance for Augusta township, to
promote the election of David R. Porter, and to se
cure the success of the Democratic party, viz :
Peter Malich, Gideon Leisenring, John Vordy,

Whktieas, The Democrat of Chilisquaque town
ship deem it expedient to meet in public meeting,
0 act in conjunction with tho Democratic party of
Did Northumberland county, in giving our hearty
lupport to the regularly nominated ticket, made at
Sunbury on the 9th of August, according to a call
f the Standing Committee; though many of us
teing farmers, do regret being cnlled from home at
his time to attend to the duties of the Democratic
.arty, but seeing the course pursued by the Milton
-edger, aided by a few canal officers and their sa
ellites, in trying to distract the Democratic party,
ve feel it our duty to inform those officers that they
re the servants of the public, instead of being the
1 asters and directors of the people. And therefore
e it
Resolved, That the editor of the Milton Ledger,
ic few canal officers and disappointed applicants

10 path hereafter, that they are taking so much
ains to prepare for others.
Resolved, That we recognize no other head to our
cmocratic ticket, save that which is headed with
re two Davids, the choice of the people.
Resolved, That we will use all honorable and fair
icans to secure the re-election of D. R. Porter, for
1 him we believe the Temocracy has JefTersonian
Ivocate.
Resolved, That we will suppoit D. B. Montgo
ery, and we will elect him, if honorable means
ill effect it, and that we will not resort to the low,
ean, contemptible trick of procuring letters from

Resolved, Thnt we approve of the course pursued
our worthy representative in Congress, Capt.

the extravagant administration of the all princi-

Resolved, That we bail President Tyler's second

Anthracite Iron.
The Harrisburg Intelligencer publishes a letter
m Messrs. Moore and Staurt, iron workera of
nville, in which they state that they have used
Anthracite Iron exclusively for months logetb
iJ have found it equal to any charcoal iron they
A used, and decidedly heller for some purposes.
y said 1
"As regards the Anthracite Iron for Forge purpo
ses, we have called on Messrs. J. P. ft, 1. Groves,
proprietors of the Columbia Furnsce at Danville,
who inform us that they sent some of their pig me
tal to Messrs. Orrick, Grubbs & Parker, Philadel
phia, and that firm informed them that it was liked
for puddling purposes.
The success of the Anthracite Iron business is
fully established beyond all doubt, and the superi

Twenty-Seventh Congress.
Washiroto, Sept. 9. 1841.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
The amendment of the Senate to strike out the
appropriation for the Charged Affairs at Naples was 1
still under consideration. The amendment was
very briefly debated by several members, when the
business in the Committee was interrupted by a
personal rencontre between Mr. WISE and Mr.
STANLEY.
BREACH OF PRIVILEGE.
Whilst Mr. FILLMORE was in the midst ef a
sentence, tho Reporter (who had noticed Mr. Wise
cross over to (he sent of Mr. Stanley, and had ob
served those two gentlemen in conversation appa
rently of a very excited character) saw Mr. Wise
raise his hand violently and aim a blow at the face
of Mr. Stanley, who as instantaneously met or re
turned it. A violent fight followed, and, in less
time than it can be described in this ropnrt, a scene,
mingled uproar and Jight, such as the Reporter in
many years experience has never witnessed on the
floor of the House, ensued. Messrs. Wise and Stan
ley were lost to the sight of the Reporter in the
general rush, whilst Mr. Arnold, of Tennessee, and
Mr. Butler, of Kentucky, were noticed in violent
personal etruggle, atriktig at and grappling with
each other. Mr, Dixon H. Lewis and Mr. Gilmer,
and others, were seen in the midst, endeavoring to
quell the disturbance, which had now reached a
point at which it seemed impossible to arrest its
progress. The members had rushed from all parts
of the Hall, some rushing over and others standing
upon the tables, literally piling themselves one on
the other, and several canes were seen by the Re
porter ral ed up aa if in the act of striking. The
Speaker during this time had resumed the Chair in
formally, but no one paid the least regard to bis
voice, and he called in vain on the officers, none of
whom were observed by the Reporter, with tho ex
ception of the door keeper, who was endeaering to
close the doors and windows against the crowd
from without, who attempted lo rush within the
hall.
The general melee (of which tho Reporter was
taking notes) continued two and a half to three
minutes. It then subsided, as it appeared, though
by what direct process the Reporter could not un
derstand ; but he hesrd the voice of
Mr. WISE, who had leturned to his seat, ad
dressing the Chair.
Ti e Reporter thinks it proper to remark, that the
entire statement under the head of "Breach of pri
vilege," is given by himself, according to hia own
notea and that no part of it has been submitted to
revision.
Something like order having restored
Mr. WISE, said he had risen for the purpose of
apologizing to the House in (he most humble man
ner, and of asking its pardon, as he most sincerely
did. He had in its presence, under the excitement
of the moment, violated its order an excitement
which he could not repress. The House had wit
nessed what had parsed between the gentleman
from North Carolina (Mr. Stanley) and himself,
in the course of the debate, and had heard the lan
guage used by the gentleman towards him. He
(Mr. W.) had passed to that gcnlleman'a seat in
order to remonstrate with him in a friendly and pri
vate way. The gentleman from North Carolina
was excited, snd he (Mr. W.) becoming so, they
were soon engaged in very hot words. Our friend
ly relations, continued Mr. W., were interrupted.
I will not slate to the House circumstantially all
that took place ; but he repeated to me what he had
suid, and I gave him warning that he had not met
me in the spirit in which I
Mr. W. at the close of the sentence which was
thus lost lo the Reporter, was interrupted by
Mr. ANDREWS, of Kentucky, who said that he
objected lo the gentleman going into the facts,
wheh he hoped would be ascertained by a commit
tee ofperesns wholly uninterested.
Mr. WISE, I have but a few words to say, Criea
of "go on go on." In the warmth of my excite
ment I used harsh language, and the gentleman re
turned to me a word which 1 could not brook, ei
ther here or elsewhere. Never, whatever msy be
the consequences, will I brook that wor J. I struck
him. I have offended against the House; I hum
bly ask its pardon, and I submit myself to any pe
nalty which it may please lo impose.
Mr. STANLEY then look the floor, and said he
had not risen to a.-k pardon of the Houee. If he
had offended again it if he had been guilty of at
ny violation ofita rules, he would submit to any
penalty the House might impose even to be ex
pelled, or to be forced to resign. But, (continued
Mr. S.) I believe I have done what any other
man on this floor would have done under aimilar
circumstances.
The honorable gentleman from Virginia, (Mr,
WISE,) whose insolence I will not say is notori
ous, came round to my seat, not, aa he says, to le
monstrute no, not to remonstrate but to scold, to
lecture, to browbeat me, as he does every body who
presumes to differ with such high-born Virginian
as he is, I could not tolerate it, I told him what
I understood him to have said, aud what I had siiJ
in reply. He then aaid, "I wmit lo warn you."
To which I replied, "No, I will not take your warn
ing." He then aaid, "Come out of the Hall T.iih
nie." Aud started towards the door, I replied "No
sir 5 you hase heard what I said; you can taka
your own course; I have nothing inure to eiy."
He then aaid, "You deserve my contempt " aud I
aaid, "Sir, you are liar."
Mr. WISE. That is not the fact.
Mr. STANLEY. That is the state of facts. I
assort it before my constituents, before this House,
and before the world.
The gentleman then raised his hand and atruck
me; and if the members of the House had not in
terfered, I would have given him the aevere punish
ment which he deserves for his insolence.
Mr. INGERSOLL rose and offered the follow
ing resolution :
Resolved, That special committee be appoin
ted to inquire into the circumstances of the rencon
tre on the floor of this House between Mr. Wise
and Mr. Stanley, memliers of this House, and to
report thereon to the House.
Mr. ANDREWS, of Kentucky, said that at the
last Congress a committee had been appointen on
a aimilar subject when similar occurrence had ta
ken place. How that investigation ended every bo-
dy knew. He was opposed to the appointment of
a committee. He considered the former occurrence
disgraceful to the House, as he considered this.
He thought that the two members engaged deserv
ed to be expelled, and he believed they should be
expelled now, upon the spot, and without further
delay.
Cries in many parts of the House, "Agreed
agreed."
There was no other way in which tho House
could vindicate its character and its dignity. The
committee appointed in a similar case at the last
Congress had done nothing had recommended no
thingand the dignity which bad been offered un
rebuked. He was for no committee it would be
a mce white-washing affiir a mere humbug, auch
as we heretofore had.
Mr. HOPKINS (after a remaik which the Re
porter could not hear ;) moved the previous ques
tion.
Mr. ANDREWS, moved to lay the resoluiion of
Mr, Ingersoll on the table, with a view, he aaid, if
that motion prevailed, to offer the following resolu
lion :
Resolved, That the Hon. Henry A. Wise, a
member of this House, having this day, by his own
confessions on the floor of the House, while in ses
sion in Committee of the whole on the state of the
Union, committed an assault on the Hon. tidward
Stanley, be therefore expelled the House.
Mr. ANDREWS moved to lay the resolution on
the table, for the reasons above stated by him.
Which motion was rejected.
The question then recurred on the motion ef
Mr. Hopkins for the previous question.
And there waa no second.
Aud the main question (being on the resolution)
was ordered, and being taken.
The resolution, by ayes 124, noes not counted,
was adopted.
And the committee was ordered to consist of sev.
en members.
Mr. LEWIS WILLIAMS said, if there was no
other motion, he would move that the House ad
journ, but he withdrew the motion.

MORE POSITIVE PROOF
Of the efficacy of Dr, Jlarlich's Compntmd
Strengthening ana uerman Aperient fills.
Allkohest, Jan. 8, 1840.
To Dr. Harlich'e Agent Sir: I wish to state for
the benefit of those who may be afflicted, that Dr.
HAitLtrn's Pills have entirely cured me of Dys
pepsia, of which I have been afllicled for many
years. I used both kinds, the Aperient ami Strength
eninff, and I am constrained to say, that they are a
valuable discovery, and act upon the system mildly,
but very effectually. I found the Tonic pills lo
quicken the circulation and cause a determination
to the surface, aed to strengthen the weak stomach
and increase its powers. The Aperieni pills are the
best cathartic I ever used. I am confident all Dys
peptics would do well to make immediate trial and
be relieved. Any one can call at my house and be
salisfUd of the above at pleasure.
