Miller, Dem , was elected Chief Clerk, and Francis Fri. Hutchinson, Dem., Assistant Clerk, ;by the same vote. The Speaker made neat speech on taking the chair.

The Republicans and Americans have a majority of 34 in the House, so that the nominations by the Democrats wore only complimentary to the gentlemen nominated. In 1855 the Opposition had u majority of 60 in the Boum', unit when the Democrats made their nomi nations, they wore laughed at, and yet the very next. Sess:on the same ,rentle men being nominated for Speaker and Clerk wore elected by most decisive ma jorities. Wo predict therefore t hut the triumph of the Opposition wi:l be its it was then. Congress. The New &male Chamber.—On Tnes day last the United States Senate removed from the old into the new hull. A great crowd was in attend ance on the occasion. The session was opened in the old chamber in the morning, as usual with prayer and the rending of the journal. Mr. Davis sub mitted the report of tho cvmmi:teq, stating that the new hall was ready for their occupancy. Mr. Crittenden mov ed the adoption of the report, and made ;Ai impressive and appropriate speech. Tho removal had much of solemnity about. it. Many proud aisoeiations bound them to tho old hall. /t had been the natio of many great events. In it questions of great national im port--questions of peace or war—bad been debated ; and great men had been the actors them. Calhoun, Clay, Web ster, Wright, Lee, and others, had left on those very walls the impress of their fame. The inspiration of illustrious predecessors would go with them into the new chamber. Vice President Breckinridge then ad dressed the Senate, giving a historical sketch of Congress at the various seats of . govemment nntil its location at Washington. Then he narrated the in cidents of the burning of the Capitol by the British army, the assenib.inietliere after of Congress in Blodget's Hotel, on the site now occupied by the General Post Office, and finally the assembling in 1819. in the present building. Ho then went into an interesting comparison of the character of the Sen ate in the early days of the government and now. Then it was almost wholly an executive body. Much of its busi ness was transacted with closed doors. The President often took part in the debates, and it was not. for many years that galleries were furnished for spec tators. After further remarks, which were listened to with 'great attention, the Senate proceeded in procession to the new hall, where business went on as usual. The new Senate chamber resembles that of the House, bat is more mellow in its painting. belf - The death of Gen. Quitman was announced in both Houses on Wednes day, and high eulogies were passed up on the deceased. Mr. Bigler addressed the Senate in fuvor of the Pacific Railroad, making a clear and sound argument thereon. Mir Mor e trouble in Kansas I. The notorious Montgomery having re-eonk meneed his depredations on pro-slavery men, has brought out the little less no torious Hamilton on the other side— and innocent people are made the suf ferers.

MIN= Hypocritical Mac About "Prato.- , tioa." We warned the _people over and over again:otays. the Philadelphia Arges,) that the clamor of the advocates of a Protective Tariff, was hollow, decep tive. insincere; that their professions of friendship for the laborer wore hypocri tical shams, cullt rappss I to catch votes with. That our may see that wo are correct in the position we have assumed, we lay before them the sub joined despatch from Washington City: " WASHTNCITON, December 28 " Republican Senators and Represen tatives in Congress are said to have conic to the- unanimous conclusion that parties and politics are so shaped in this Congress, that nothing will be effected during the present session concerning the Pacific Railroad or a modification of the tariff. That is equivalent to de claring that they will do all in their power to prevent the consummation of any practical result in either matter, with a view of keeping the questions open to strengthen their own party in the national election of 1860." Was ever hypocrisy exhibited upon a larger scale Here are the very men who were deafening the public ear, just before the election, with their clamor about a tariff for the protection of American labor, now taking the back truck, and giving public notice that they do not intend to press the matter before the present Congress. They in tend to defeat all attempts to frame a judicious tariff, so that they can keep the question an open one, and make it an issue for the Presidential campaign of 1860. They know how much poli tical capital can be made out of this sham, and they intend to make the most of it. It made thousands of votes in their favor in some sections of the country, at the late elections, and they intend to try the same game over again. The people may be deceived once by those transparent shams, but WO doubt whether the second trial will be successful. They must see, with half an eye, that all this has beon done to entrap their votes ; they will hardly walk into the fire with their eyes wide open. The game has been tried once too often already. liar The Geneva Gazette, describing a broken down, worn out horse, says : " Ile looks and ho ha,l been fed at the public crib, after the Know Notliing4 and Black &publicans had been there." bO-The now Catholic church of St James, Canada, has been deottoyed tiro. hoot $lOO,OOO.
