"A singular AMI pleasing circumstance Ike, i-e
distinguished the conduct OF the Chamber ON tins
occasion, iiom its usual mode Of procedure. Its
deliberations were no; disturbed by any of those
angry bickernss-those impatient Interruptions or
nose personal alterations which sometimes have
rendered MS meetings. scenes f confusion and tu-
mu!i. Every member heard with ciyiliv r.
not with attention. and the Presidents bell a,d
hammer was laid up in ordinary. The only in

oaie, was during that part of the speech Of Seb,s-

ieeling of impotence at the INTRODUCED of The to-
PIC than o! disrespect for the character or onnosi

On the 2S'h Of December the Address was A.

1t appears that drl Csrnng's Speech has been
