aTHIs FEARFUL Bolts"

The nrosnec,s of reaching the Speakers Chaif'
in The next House Of Representatives. SO Tempt
ineIy held forth TO Mr.. Bolts, seem 10 have oeeh
suddenly clouded Potomac" Tie Washington
corresnonden, OF The Baltimore Patriot who pro-
fesses an intimate knowledge OF The unaer'cur-
rent OF its parry, and who, we believe mist named
Mr. Bolts for this high station, '0v says,
"The choice ota Wing candidate for The Speaa-
ership will ungnesionabfy be narrowed Gown De-
rnomnson Of Indiana, and MIR. Hilard OF Ala

these splendid men. And besides, il Is seherai'y

gentlemen from Notwithstanding Stale In
this case The selection may re narrowed GOWN
between MIR Winthrop aud Mir. thompson
Otherwise, MIR. Hi liard's chance OF success
might be equal TO the best"
MIR. Bolts, Il seems, is not one OF The "spleho'a
men" 10 compete for The place. But lei him 'ake

distinguished honor OF leading on movement
which was SET on foot at The Wing supper

game which he has played with so much saceess')
or 10 expose The "secrets OF the prison house,
which The Wings always SO confidently chucRle
over in adrancc. But for the information OF Mr.
Bolls and his friends, we lei The National, new
Wing paper al New Orleans, present The pro-
gramme:
1.-THE next Congress will he an exceedingly
rich one. 1t will probably be known in history,
as the development Congress" Tor II Inc
Wings have a majority, they will have Inc
whole of the secret purposes OF TINS war e2-
plained. and who is responsible for every ac'
will be perfectly understood. Should the Wings
no, have majority, there will be Taylor De-
moerals enough, 10 vote with them, 10 carry a
vote for the call for all correspondence relating 10
the war. Virginia has provided larva known
as the Bolts, that is distinguished for its voracI-
ous appetite, when feeding upon withheld cores
pondencc. This fearful Bolts, is destined in the,
course Of The next Congress, TO be introduced into
The very heart of the Administration, and The
chances are that fits and death will ensue."
We doubt whether this compliment from
Wing paper ought not 10 be regarded as a bitter
sarcasm We had been led 10 exPec, that Mr.
Bolts, like The eagle, was 10 make deadly s~uop
upon The Administration and tear il piece-meal-

The most remarkable revelation oi potomac
is that MI Hilllard would have he besl chance
of election, il he were nollrom slave State
Our readers will remember that MIR. IL. is The on
ly Wing who voted for The British Tariff Of
1876, and utterly repudiaIes The doctrine OF "pro'
