ORGANIZATION OF THE HOUSE.
When we left the House <o put our | aper to pres*
the organization of the body had been artested by the
Whigj. The Clerk was permut d t<> call the rod,
as is ti* usual course, until alter he ha I called tin
name of tlie undisputed member from N»w J rsev
He then stated that, iu regard to the other claimaut
of seats from that State, there was a contest as to the
validity of the different returns of members, whi It
he could not decide, and concerning which, after call
ing through the mil, ami forming the House, In
would submit the state of fact-, together with the doc
uments, to the body. One of the Whig member* im
mediately demanded the reading of th* cmntni-si "t
of the Governor, •appointing the minority members.
This was done. Mr. Mercer then called fm the rt ail
ing of a law in regard to the duty <4 the Governor,
without permitting the certificates and proof <m the
•other side to be i« id. Calls wi re m >d<- for the read
ing of all the doernn n s sent t > the Eicc.itiv - oilice
under the stwte seal, but the Whies precl d d this, b
keeping tip the aretiimii of 'he ca*e on liiec.r or/<-
/rw/eflee « hich th'y II id drawn out, and thu* u>-
pressing the dear pmof of fraud, coming m the most
•atith' n’ic form from (lie very office and reeo'd l>mn
whi'li the W big claimants derived the false ceitifi
<• <fe«, s uehi to m ike the discussion turn on a .me
*i fed view of the ca*e. Nothing shows th“ weak
ness of thecau-eof tin* Governot’s appointee-, tn »>i
than this unfair mode of procedure, it shows that
they < ammt v ntu:e to have the whole trau-a- ti 11 d - !
termmed oa it* merits—that they dare tint subject the
validity ortlu iroan ce-tilicate to lie tested by the n -
cor.’.s of the Govet 1 o’* oilice. of wbicdi it formsa!

duy h»w themsi Ives. B-son the House is h ilf ere- j
■it'd, or the issue m >re than half pre-enti"’, the win!"
body of whig orators deliver spee.-hes, and while they
argue to convince th<> House how it ought to decide,
Mr. Halstead, one of the whig claimants, tells the bo
dy he mldressi s. that he “ will not consent to the de
cision of gentlemen here,” &;c. This is nothing more
m>r e s tt>an the a 'mission of a design on the part of
Mr. Halstenl ami th" re-t of the minority candidates,
to force themselves on the II .use, n ilefiaitc- of the
major ty f that body, precisely as they have attempt
ed to cmnprl the majority of the people of N w Jer
ey to recognise them as Representatives, although
they have recorded their -ufi’rages against them. The
broad seal of Governor Pennington, according to Mr.
I lalstead, is to put down the " ill of 'he people of New
Jersey, as well as th it oft'ie House. A ‘broad sea]'
w ill be fottn.l. we trn-t, of a* litde effect when ir certi
fies a falsehood, as when it is f .rged to make one.

In en Onle.idi g.
Mr. Hunt a-lvr<l le-ve io ofl’er an amendment re
comwtnuing the appointment of a temporary Speaker.
To thi- Mr. Wi-e and others objected, on the I
g onnd that whatever action they might take vvi.h a I
temp 'lary Speaker, they would be resolved again in- j
to their present position.
Mr. Graves submitted a further aiiiend'i.ent requir
ing the Clerk t > call the names of m- mlicrs from the
-cveral States, including the numbers from New Jer
sey. having the certifirat's.
Mr. Hollman spoke at some length against the re
solution of Mr. Wise, and urged that the Clerk was
bound m call the names of all members having cer
tificate*, without any di ninr.
Alier some debate of a desultory character, Mr.
Graves took the floor, and inn speech otUnit'll length
declaimed ngain-t the coivhi. t of the clerk in refusing
to go thio’igh the roll, lit the course of his remark*
lie took occasion to fit ■from the subject under debate,
and vent his spleen auaiust the general policy of the
present Adinitiis'ration. Tin- Cl>-i k being the only
presiding officer, could not, tin- delicacy of hi-
position, call the member to order.
Mr. Cr iig was surprised at the course taken by
the last Speaker in substituting d'-clamation, round
a '-ertion and impnta ion id’ motive, for argument.
He then took a brief review of the case ns it stood,
anti asked if the votes from Millville and S 111th Am
boy, had not been • xcludetl.
Several of th- J.-r-ey member- rose, and stated
that the votes from those places/m/been ex.] d ; ,
•mt it had been done on the ground mat aliens uiui
other imq 1 ilified persons had been permitted Io vole.
Mr. C'r .ig j.e-ti i.ed. and said the a.hnissmn jn*t
made was all he required. A'co.ding to the law of
elec.ions, the y hole Votes Olluht to have ■been 10.-
warded to the Governor, and the certifh’ales giv 11 to
the camiidat's having the a /parent m j wily.* Am'
1 then it it could he proved that illeoal votes liail been
received, the Hou-e wool I becalled upon to decide.
Mr. Pickens followed in support of the resolution of
Mr. Wise. He thought it a fair proposition, tlie very
same in substance as that of Mr. Rives on a former
day. He wished for a full anil fair investigation of
the subject by the gentlemen whose seats were not dis
puted, without any flimsy subterfuges or technicali
ties. He was not then prepared to decide as to yvhich
1 set of claimants were entitled to the seats, hit' he was
sure that on yvhich ever side the popular voice of Neyv
Jersey inclined, that popular voice would essentially
be irresistible. Il it were r.e-isted, it yvottld come
thundering upon them with the voice of the hurri
cane, and overthrow the iniquitous measures that
might be attempted to suppress it. He hoped the
■ House yvould at once adopt the resolution.
Mr. Barnard then took the floor, and opposed the
resolution at some length. He contended th u the
House jirevious to the election of Spe -ker, could not,
and had no power to act upon tbe matter. He urged
that the Clerk yvas bound to go through the roll, ad
mitting the five members having certificates, after
yvhich the House ought to be organized by the eic
lion of its proper officer, and then take up the ques
tion now in agitation. This gentleman yvas evidently
setup by his party to talk against time, as his argu
ments yvere nothing but a tiresome repetition of the
farce ol yesterday. They were then told that in ma
ny instance*, the House previous to the election ol
Speaker, had gone so far as to appoint Committees,
■ etc. But none are so blind as those who will not see.
Mr. Cooper, of Georgia, followed, and in tbe most
pdh ti maimer, endeavored mp> r-uade die Demo
e.a tc members to give up ih« ir s 'ruples, and ti’ilow
the Wi.igst 1 hate their ownway. Hehi-simght them
i "mo t-..flection "viy ” to cons dei tbe awkird p sitiou
in which the House was | lac* d, and to subn it, wit"
broil.erly kindness. The alh-ctio ati manner i f tbi*
g n hm >u had a g;e <i effect upon tin Hou-e, whi. li
yvas 1 xpr»a.*ed by laughter.

Alt'i some further d "b,te, without taking ;.n
question, at about half past 4 P. AI., the House ad
journed.
It was und'rstood that Air. Wise had agiced to
: withdraw hi- resolution.
i Much -tit-prise has been excited at the liberality of
Air. Wise in submitting his tesol 'iioii. It is sn-peci
jed that this apparent unprecedented geneto ity, i- the
I resiiit of a deeply laid scheme of the p ity to which

COMPLIMENTARY.
T he editor o| the Yitmsta Chronicle and Sentinel, thus
very tlatietiuoiy notices the L' gisl .inre now in session.
•‘Il is now mesnmah!" that the L« g’slature yvill take no
sclimi in relilitri m tire Ba iks, which will perhaps, alter
all, be the best that ci.nl ! be expected from such a mass ol
ignorance and mental imbecility as the Legislature.”
How unf.irmnaie it is, that thi- ignorant mass is not ed
ified by the stnpemlous intellect of the Editor of the Sei -
ti.iel. Perhaps it would Ire oolitic to employ Mr. Jones,
or Mr Shaw, to act as the of Ge.n»ia— nd that
one of them should fm consulted as the oracle, upon ah
subjects of legislation.
In the South Cando a Le islaiure, N >v. 30, petitions
were piesettted f.oni sundry sections, pr.vmg a re-
II til ol the law, amh"i izing an increase of the rales of
iranspuitation on the Cl.arlesum and Hamburg Railroad.
FIF KEEN G \LLON L \\V.
I he Legishiture ol Smith Carolina, have had so many
petitions presented t<> them, fm and »"ain*t the repeal ol
dll' license law in that S.,tt. , that a special C. nnmtwe on
I emperanee and the luense law, Ims been appointed.
I he London S.m, savs, tb it it is now next to certain
111.1 Vi< totia will not, like the former maiden Sovereign
o. Ei.'glan.t, be leazrd hv parlianienl w ill, repeated appli

be hi- ii<> ne; an I as mn tai. leaders, at least may be cn
ri"iisio kimw sen e l.ing ot tbe lorn, ai d the bearing of
•lie man who cart w it. the hand of a Queen, we may add
dial he is il s lii t d is a “line, noble looking fellow, with
blue eyes, li .ii ai d yvhi-km s r .tltei sandy, stature tall, of a
cheeiliil oi-p.isiiimi, most inndfected in his manners, and
he speaks English well, bm with something of a foreign
accent.”
The Columbia (S. I '.) Telescope, the only “Whig” jn
per we know of published in that State, lias given up the
contest. The political paper is to be discontinued, and a
purely agrictihiiral pipar will be issued in its stead. The
editor concludes his notice in these wonts: —
‘•We think, under pr. sent circumstances, we can by
this course be must Useful to the State; and following the
example of many a wiser man, we will now turn our sword
into a plougli-sliare.”
And thus the organ of Wm. C. Preston is to be permit
ted to become a part of the history ol lit" forlorn hopes of
llettrv Clay. Well, good bye, Teleseop, you are used
tip. We have seen yon tn vour palmy days, when yon
strutted in corsets—but, alas!—good bye Telescope—you
are a perfect case—“none so poor as to do you rever
ence.”
