And the cointhitteo having performed that duty, Mr. Pennington^ the Speaker elect, ad* dreeeed the House as follow* : Gentlemen of the House of Xepresent olives : I return you my grateful acknowledgements for tho distinguished honor you have been pleased to confer upon me in electing me the Speaker o| this House. jQfUpiqg hire for the flril time at the present session to be associated with you as a member, no VVMIU MW?V wwu UIIIVURtti TOT than thai I should be called upon to preside o*er your deliberations ; and my friends will dome the justice to say that I have not sought the position, as 1 certainly novor desired it. 1 am nevertheless as conscious of tho dignity and importance of this high of flee as any gentleman can be, bnt should have been far better pleased bad its duties been entrusted to abler and nrorc experienced bands. After witnessing the almost insurmountable obstacles in the way of the organisation of this House, I came to the conclusion that any gentleman or' any party who ?ou)d eoraand a mnjority of votes for Speaker was bound, in deference to tbe public exigencies. to accopt the resporsibilitv as an act ol patriotic duty, whether agreeable to bis personal felir.gs or not. As that choice has unexpectedly fallen upon roe, I have not hesitated to accept it. In the execution o'f this high trust my object will be to do ruy duty with impartiality nnd justice to all. I shall have great necessity, gentlemen, for your indulgence in the new position in which I am placed, and I fed entire confi- I donee I shall recieve it at your hands. A representative from tbo State of New Jersey, upon whose soil so many brilliant achievements ware accomplished in the Revolutionary wur, and whose people have ev er been distinguished for their devotion to the Constitution nnd the Union, I pray the great Arbiter of our deslinos that I may do no act to impair the integrity of either, but that, by wise and prudent counsels, peace and* order may yet reign in our midst, and our free institutions be perpetuated to our descendants. 1 feel I have a national heart, emhraceiug all parts of our blessed (Jnion. Again thanking you for your kindness, I now enter upon the discharge of the arduous and complicated duties of my station. The oath of office was administered to the Speaker by Mr. Phelps, of Missouri, the oldest member by couseeutive service.

It, however, assumed a serious aspect when it was discovered that one Curtis was the author, and that he had suddenly and mysteriously disappeared. Suspicion pointed at once to the Sons of Malta, and it is feared that unless the mystery which enshrouds the case is cleared up, the citizens will rise en masse against, the order. We are sanguine, however, that the missing man will turn up somewhere, and it will be found that hie disappearance hail not the remotest con nection with any joke he may have perpetrated on the Sous.

A Blow in tho Right Direction. A dispatch from \Yashiugton Announces tiie pleasing fuel, thut Hickman, of Pennsylvania, one of the ^lnckcst and meanest Abolitionists ill Congress, was severely chastised with n cane by Hon. llHsnr A. Eomundaon, of Virginia, on Saturday last, IIickuan, in a speech, delivered at tho serenade to Speaker Pxnnington, uttered some harsh expressions against the Slate of Virginia, aud among other things, said thai if the South attempted to go out of the Union, she would k? whipped back again by eighteen million of northern bayonets. Ho was truly spoiling for a threshing, and we have no doubt hut that the drawing of a little sap froiu his head will be of service to him. It will be to him a pretext, no doubt, for visiting Europe for his health, where he can, in imitation of his illustrious predecessor ?SruNKK?have hi* dirty buck cauterized. We would not be aurprised to hear if other*, like him, received the Mine chastisement before the session was over. The Blue Ridge Railroad. A meeting was held at Pickens Court ITnuee on sale-day last, which was largely attended by the citizens of that District The people of that District arc alive to the importance of the enterprise, and arc determined to spare no endeavor* to further the p/ogress of the lloud. It i* clear to our mind that the Bine llidge Railroad will | be builL The State will either take up the ! Spartanburg extension or push the Blue Kidg* | Railroad to the Georgia line. If the hitter is accomplished, we feel certain that the Iliwasse | Railroad front Clayton, Georgia, to Cleveland, Tennessee, will be immediately put under contract. We believe it to be to the interest of the State to build the Blue llidge Railroad to the Slate line, and, have no doubt but that the Legislature will, at its next session, po#s such measures as will carry the Koad onward. Judge Fr.osT, the President of the Road, addressed the meeting, and, in a clear, practical and faithful report, gave a brief history of the j enterprise, ite present condition and future proa- i . pecta. The Kentire Courier enye, that " he showed con*;!naively that tha road, in its present condition, must be fruitless; recited, in strong language, the benefits which had been derived from the prosecution of the work thus far, and the additional advantages which must result from a continuance of the same. He appealed eloquently for further aid, by district or individual subscriptions. He explained the operation of the act recently passed by the Legislature for making district subscriptions, which appeared toatford general satisfaction.

An net was passed at the late session of the State Legislature to establish a Branch Bank in the northwestern part of the State. It is wall known that tha citizens of Greenville, Anderson hum nnutTiiK una vcen comenuing ror lU location In their respective places. It is not yet known at which oftbeae places it will ultimately be located. We should not now advert to the subject but for the misrepresentations of a correspondent of the Charleston Evening Nru>*. So long as it was a matter between the citizens of the places above mentioned, we were not disposed to say anything, believing that those who had the matter in charge would locate it at the point which would prove of most advantage to the State and the people generally. Hut the corespondent of the JTews (over the signature of "Saluda") has made such glaring misrepresentations in regard to Greenville and its business, and exhibited such ignorance of facts, that we feel it due to our citizens to set the public right in regard to the matter, at least so far as we are concerned, leaving Abbeville and Anderson to correct the statements which have been made concerning them. "Saluda" is an* ions to have the Hank established at Greenwood a point on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, in Abbeville District; a place whose chief attractions are the cleverness of its citizens, and where travelers procure the best dinners that can be had between this place and New York. Togi vc our readers an idea of what he thinks in regard to the matter, we give an extract from his communication : " Let us. then, view the comparative merits of each. Greenville is ton nwr the mountain*. and the mine may l?e said of Anderson. The Itsnk, *t either of those place*, mutt necessnrily be restricted in business to a very email territory, having no back country to sustain it. and would get little or nothing from below. The tendency of our people is to go down the country for bank or mercantile accommodation*; and while the people of the upper Districts would come down to a Bank in this section of the State, we would not g? up to ono In Greenville or Anderson. The citizens of Anderson showed their belief in the unprofitableness of a Bank at that place, by their not establishing one when tlicy had a charter.? They were unwilling to hazard their own capital in tnch an enterprise, bnt profess to believe it would be highly remunerative to the State to do it. If a bank can not then be enetained at Anderson, (Anderson herself being the judge,) we are sure it cannot he at Greenville, a pTnce of lese business and still less back country. These objection* do not hold in so eminent a degree against Abbeville, and of the three that is the most preferable ; but that town, notwithstanding the rosary of nsmes to hei petition, must also he rule ou. when placed in the balance with Greenwood. Abbeville has a population and mercantile tiusincss about one-fourth larger than Greenwood, and boys, I suppose, twice as much cotton ; but*if these are to lie the measure of the Bank's business site had better not branch out at that pla.tc. Tiie true criterion to judge of the probabilities of a Bank business at the two places is | the books of their respective Bank Agencies and, when that is done, 1-sir. sure that Green wood will compare favorably with her." | Let us see how far lie is right in what he say*. We admit that Greenville is near the mountains; but it poescsaas an almoet unlimited back country to support it. The trade from North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee must and will come < to it. Jn point of population, it is far abend of cither Anderson or Abbeville, whilst her exports are in tho neighborhood of a quarter of a million, and her trade is something over half a million. The commerce of Greenville with North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky would per force send the bills of the Bank into those State*, where they are now neeesearily restricted, from an inability to procure them. Again, he says mat " u?o tendency of our people id to go down tlio country for bank or mercantile accommodations." If Ibid were the case, the location of the Bank at Greenwood would avail but liltle, for the Hank of Newberry, which ia located within two or three hour* ride of Greenwood, would continue to supply the wants of the people of that section. The people arc now contpcll. ed to go down the conntry hecauae there are no banks, with the oxceptiou of the Bank <ff Newberry, in the up-country. Ac a further inducement to estahlidh the Bank at Greenwood, "Saluda " aayj that it " can furnish as able a set of Directors as any other of the {tlaces named, and w ill furnish a lot free of coat for the erection of the building." We doubt not that tike kindness and liberality of the above otl'er will be properly appreciated, but we doubt very tnueh if the bid is qnite high enough to secure the object. The State is perfectly able to purchase a lot on which to erect a Bank building, and we suppose that the placer, w hich he has so conteinptnously spoken of, are fully prepared to furnish suitable Directors for the same. We deem it unnecessary to compare the relative advantages 01 Grcenwoo-i and Greenville. Every ot.e acquainted with the two pieces will et once discover tliet there is searcely a comparison when the importance of the looation of a Rank.is to be discussed. We have no doubt hut that the advantages which Greenville possesses have been fairly presented to the proper quarter, and whether she secures the Hank or not, her friends are unwilling to have her merits (which are second to no town in the up couulry) disparaged.
