1t is one of the most palpable evidences of the
confusion of mind which prevailed in the House
OF Representatives, after the disclosure of Mr..
VIM. J. Browns Free Soil intrigue, that the Hon.
Fayette MclMullen, of Virginia, should have COM
menced his speech by saying, shat this uas the
first time IN has lJehe had attempted 10 speak
seord IN an asSenablyof deliberatire character "
Why, the echoes of his voice still linger within
the walls of our Senate chamber, and no lips ever
spouted more Democracy before deliberative as
sembly, than his have spouted in that remarkably
quiet hall Possibly his meaning was, that the
Senate of Virginia did notdeserve to be called de-
Lucrative, in comparison with the House of Re-
representatives. If that was his drift, some action
should be taken in the premises by the ''grave and
reverend segneurs, over whom Mr.. John w.
Tyler presides. tits plainly question of State
dignity, if not of State rights.

The Union and Enquirer drop Mr. Brown like
hot poker Two days ago, our neighbour, the
Enquirer, was in joyful anticipation of Browns
election. Even yesterday, it had an article say
ing
I'VE aoouLd rejoice IN his probable election The
Wing charges that he Jealous friend OF General
Cass This will be one of the strongest recommended
tons in the eyes of the Democracy, and we thank the
Wing for the word. Mr.. Brown is also one OF the Re-
gencys victims, prescribed for independent express
of his sentiments, and his election to the Speaker
ship post OF great honor and influence will be the Bit
terest pill that Tayorsm ever swalowed-worse, even,
than the desertion of Louisiana, Old Zacs own State
But what sequel was there to all this prospec-
tive joy7 In P. S. the Enquirer sadly ac-
knowledges-
We haze been thoroughly deceived, and, with Four
correspondent ante in thanking our tao Represen-
tatiues for having avoided Il catastrophe"
Tomorrow we shall give the debate in the House
this extraordinary case, with w. j. Browns Dery
poor attempt at an explanation OF his position"
So, then, it appears, that man may have voted
for Gen. Cass, and yet not be an angel and al
though he is zone of the Regency's Victims and
his election might therefore be 'the bitterest pill
that Taylorism ever swallowed,' it may turn out
that he is just the character that ought to have
been removed from any Office for which integrity
and fair dealing are requisite qualifications
Swallowing Mr.. w. ]. Brown has proved bitter
er dose to the opposition party in Congress than
to the Wings.

The Stockholders resumed their session, ves-
terday morning, but the absorbing subject of the
election of officers caused an early adjournment to
the hour of p. NJ, already set apart for that bust
ness.
The report of the committee on the Presidents
and Engineers reports was presented, but not
acted on. 1t approves the Presidents recommen-
dalton OF an application to the Legislature for a
guaranty of the company's bonds to an amount
sufficient to pay the difference in cost between the
heavy and light rails, and also for charter to con-
struct branch road to connect with the Virginia
and Tennessee Railroad at Lynchburg. The pro-
position from the town of Milton is commended to
the consideration of the stockholders, the commit
tee expressing the belief that "a continuation along
the Valley of the Dan river will not be inconsis-
tent with the cardinal principle of pursuing the
most direct and eligible route, inasmuch as the
distance will not be heightened, and there will be
probable saving in cost of construction, of
$4,000"
Col Townes moved to lay this last part of the
report on the table, and on that motion some dis
cussion ensued between Col. t., Mr.. N. J. Pal
