dial and chivalrous. They seemed to acknowledge inbim the qualities of an honorable enemy? A fcetnan worthy of their steel. There is no donbt, however that in the course of the session they will tri.it him undisgaUeJly as : an enemy of their section and of its institution, and that that spirit will make the proceedings of the rest of the session sharp, spicy and interesting. There was some prospect of an excitiug time , when the delegate for Kansas was called to be j worn. Mr. Qrow, of Pa., got the floor, and gave j notice of his opposition to the swearing in of Mr. j Whitfield, but stated that be thought it better at ; this time to let things take their coarse. Campbell, of Ohio, made a similar statement. They evi- j dently did not want, at this stage of business, to kindle anew the flames of discord; but we will soon have warm work of it over that same Kansas election. Oov. Iteeder was in the hall, and mtist [ have felt a little crest fallen at the swearing in and 1 apparent recognition of his rival. The House then procoeded first to adopt the cus- j tomary resolutions apprising the Senate and Pres- j ident of its organization and than to elect a Clerk. I Mr. Cullum, ex-momber from Tennessee, the nomi- J nee of the national American party, was elected on the first vote, by a majority of thirty-nine. He was therefore conducted to the Clerk's desk, sworn in by the Speaker, and so inducted into his office. Cnllum is very popular here, and the result of the vote by which he was elected was received withap plause by the House and galleries. The next thing on the programme was the draw- j inglfor seats. This was an amusing operation.? i A motion was made and carried that the clerk be j directed to place the name of each member on a : separate slip of paper in a box, shake up the same and then draw the slips out one by one, and announce the name; whereupon the gentleman answering to the cognomen was entitled to select any seat in the hall that suited his taste, and which happened to be vacant. To give effect to this rule all the members were first compelled to leave their seats and withdraw into the lobbies, where they kept crowding together, listening anxiously each to hear his name called. This was a rare and amusing scene for the lookers on, with whom the j gallerieB were all the day crowded. I believe that Campbell, of Ohio, was kept the longest in sus- t pense, his name ominously refusing to come up. and when he came in the last man, he found all the eligible seats pre-engaged. #? ELOQUENT. In defining his position before the House of Representatives at Washington a few weeks since, says the Edgefield Advertiser, Hon. Mr. Keitt, of the Orange District, delivered himself of a capital speech. It is said to have commanded the ap- , plause of the galleries; and at its conclusion a number of members crowded around the eloquent young statesman to congratulate him upon his effort. Mr. Kkixt is esteemed one of the first orators of the present Congress; and if his improvement shall keep pace with public expectation, the old fire of Carolina eloquence will not yet have been extinguished. The following extract from the speech to which we make allusion (evidently an impromptu passage) i9 not remotely akin to what might have j been the sudden burst of a McDctfie on such an j occasion; My object, Mr. Clerk, was to define my own position. I will add, however, that I believe the Democratic party is, to-ilay, purer, anil truer to ! the Constitution, than it ha3 been for years. It has passed through fire and water, and many of ( its impurities have been consumed or washed a- ' way. It has the smell of fire upon its garments, and while it moves on in the historic track of the founders of the Republic, I shall bid it God speed! Many of the halt, and lame, and blind have fallen by the way; had this fate overtaken all such, it would have been better. The gentleman from Pennsylvania [Mr Campbell] says that the Democratic party came into this Hall two years ago upon the crested wave of popular power; and he asks, wnere is it now?? He says it is a feeble and scanty band, clinging to its broken altars. Why feeble and scanty? Because it has been much more friendly to the South and truer to the Constitution, than either of the other parties. Clinging, says the gentleman, to its broken altars 1, Why, sir, to what else should it cling ? While Abolition fanaticism i9 sweeping over the free States, prostrating the guaranties of the Constitution, and tearing down the remaining pillars of our republican edifice, where should the Democratic party be, but within the sacred precincts, fighting down the foe ? While the lust of northern domination and Free-Soil propagandism is driving the chariot of sectional power over the remains of the Constitution, to what should the I Democratic party cling but to those altars, reared by the founders of the Republic ? If if be true to the Constitution, and steadfast in the faith of the father?, let it bind itself to the horns of the altar; and S3 the angel descended to rescue the son of the patriaroh even from the uplifted knife, so may the genius of the land stoop down to rescue it from the gleaming dager of the fusion cohorts. i -:= i, Cumnurrial Jjfprfment.
