The Officers of the tiro Houses-Hote they are to Be
Manageable Union Ssc,re-A Rare Lot Of
Candidates md Erpectants.
The preliminary hotel dlrquisitions relative
10 the Speaker OF the House, &C., are sig
nificant. They fostcred, at least, full COM
plement OF candidates for the offices of the two
houses OF Congress. The score and half of
members IN town, may be seen in groups of twos
and threes at the hotels, discussing in an ominous
under tone matters which all the expectants expect
appertain to the Offices of their expectations But
it will be absolutely impossible that all the cand-
dates, or one half, or fourth, aye, that even fifth
of them, will get any thing at ALL at all.
For the House, the current OF opinion runs
steadily in favor OF DR.. Davis, the administration
candidate for Speaker There are twenty other
candidates named-among them such staunch and
able men as Hopkins and Dromgoole, and Hunter,
of Va, and such promising and popular men as
Bowlin, oil Missouri, Linn Boyd, and Tibbatts of
Ky; Mcdowell, of Ohio; Rathbun, Of N. Y, and
host OF Others, all on the democratic side The
OF Ky, IN Difference to Harry OF the West"
On the subject of the printing, the Um,on is tri-
umPhant, or, IN the language OF Jackson, the
That's the question. Well, we will tell you how.
The Constitution has been compromised off to Bal
tlmore-so that that impeachment is out OF the way in
the Senate Mr.. Harris, JOINT editor, Will do well
Will make capital Charge. We hope Mr.. Heart,
his associate, will have prosperous time in Bat-
more, with the organ that is to be but 1t Is
Messrs Fisk and hssr bsa %
be compromised out OF the way of the Union in
the House, by Mr.. BOWS conserving to accept again
the influential post OF door-keeper, Mr.. Fisk to
have such droppings may perchance tall in his
III
ment, he will be the organic candidate for door
keeper, as Davis for Speaker, and Richie for the
printing And with the contamination ct all these
arrangements, the Union will get both houses, har-
mony will be restored, and we shall go on SWIM
mingly. There will be some resistance-some
kicking in the traces by the old Globe men but
they will not be obstinate we expect nor perverse,
nor dangerous
In the Senate, Col. Roberts, of Michigan, will be
prominent among the opponents OF Mr. Dickens for
Secretary. The rule OF rotation strictly applied,
Mr.. ID. would be ruled out without an election-for
he has been in long tme-but this is the secret OF
strength. 1t will take very strong man to head
hlm, and good management at that, tor all these
things have to be managed For Sergeant-at-arms,
prominent among the numerous candidates are Mr..
Beal, Mr.. Rie Of New York, and Mr.. Z. f. Nut
tall of Kentucky. Mr. Nuttall arrived here few
days ago, with Mr.. Thomasson, the representative
(whig) from the Louisville district, and they arr:
both quartered at the United States. Mr. Nnttall
was the democratic candidate opposed to Mr. i. III
the late Kentucky Congressional election. They
stumped 1t through the districts and through the
campaign together, and were tirmer personal friends
in the end than at the beginning. Nuttall declares
that he never met with more OF a gentleman than
Thomasson, and Thomasson roundly asserts that
his greatest grief is, that so good fellow as
Nuttall should be roundhead locotoco.
For Clerk of the House, it is still accredited that
Mr.. Weller, OF Ohio, will oppose Mr.. French and
rumor says several other ex-members of Congress
are on the qui vive. The capacity, the experience,
and the tried fidelity of Mr. French, are strong con-
slderatiOns in his favor King Caucus will hesitate
to " go it blind' again, upon new man, by way OF
experiment. when the incumbent is so entirely rell-
able, efficient, and accomplished.
