From California.

Below will be founda short but very interes-
ting letter from our highly esteemed friend and
Brother w. T. GILES. The sensation which the
reception Of this letter produced upon some of the
good people Of our town cannot be described
Suffice it TO soy,many Of them had an immediate
attack Of the "yellow fever" and we should not
be at all surprised to hear Of them floating down
the great Mississippi, ere many fort-nghts shall

Congressional.

We have Congressional news under date
of Dec. 18th. On that day the House was
all day discussing the different propositions
to elect Speaker. By the Tclegraphic
news, we learn that on the preceding day,
some very sharp words passed between
Ducr Of New York, and Meade, of Virgin
ia. Meade called Duer disunionist, and
Duer, in return, called Meade liar. 1t is
anticipated that duel between the parties
will take place. Thus the House is far
ther off from an organization than ever.
When mankind will act from principle, and
practice virtue, consistency and honesty,
and cease that low deception, heartless-
ness, and falsehood so common among the
children ofmen, then, and not until then,
will new era dawn upon this almost God
forsaken world of ours. We hope that
much good will grow out of this difficulty
in the House. Let it be lesson for man
that he is governed TOO much.

New HulcS-Speaker Myers.

The Tribune of last week says;
"If the Speaker continues the use OF his new
parliamentary rules, there is no prospect OF ail
organization for sometime to come"
What new parliamentary rules has the speak
er introduced Mr.. Myers occupies the speak
cr's chair temporarily for The purpose of effect
ing On organization. In the performance of hi
duty, Mr.. Myers is governed by parliamentary
rules common for the government ofsuch assem-
blics, and by such rules as were heretofore OBJ
served in the organization of the Senate.
The Tribune makes personal attack upor
Mr., Myers--chargcsg that honorable gentleman
with Introducing new parliamentary rules into
the Senate. This Is personal attack upon {
high-mi and respectable gentleman, ant
such an assault us we shall tuke the liberty 10 cx.
pose.
Mr.. Myers has taken solemn obligation te
perform the duties of senator TO the best of his a.
bilitcs and to be governed by, and supported by
the constitution Of the State of Ohio. He was
chosen Speaker by unanimous consentof Scna
tors holding over. He is man, too, who is full
" competent to perform the duties of Speaker
hence we feel loath to hear him denounced, no
only as incompetent but ulso having ba Sc ont
sinister motives at heart. The Tribune doubt
less got Its cue from the Ohio State journal, /
paper that contains fur more personal abuse than
common sense.
But what new parliamentary rules does Mr.
Myers continue to use The Tribune has made
bold assertion, and unless its editors will make
an attempt, for an attempt it will only be, te
prove what they assert in relation to the present
Speaker, we would most respectfully ask them
to back water, and tell their readers that the new
rules which they spoke of as being introduced
into the Senate and used by the Speaker, were
onlyimaginations of their brains, somewhat atfcct
cd by the heated passions of partyism.

Ohio LSgislature.

The disorganizing wings had prevented an or
ganizution of the Senate for nine days by voting
down, by tie vote, every attempt to go into cleo
ton for Spe ker: but on the ninth day they were
very suddenly brought to their senses by the de-
cisive course pursued by Mr. Myers the chair
man for the organization. Mr.Myers stated that
he had been chosen chairman for tho purpose Of
cffecting an organization of the Senate, that he
had hoped the Senate would organize by common
consent and thus be sustained by precedent
But that hope no longer remained, and he was
now compelled to exercise the powers vested in
the Chair by the Constitution. He therefore
announced to the Senate that the first business
in order would be to 60 into an election of spea-
kcr. This prompt d ecison from the Chair took
the disorganizers with surprise, they ranted and
raved like mad-inen, but to no effect, for they
found that they were completely headed and
had to yield TO the decision of the Chair. Bal
loting for Speaker then commenced On the
first ballot Mr.. Dimmock (Dem.) received Is
votes, Messrs Dennison and Randall united re-
ceived 10 votes, which res ult showed that there
wus one more vote than there were persons enti-
tied to vote. After the third balloting Mr.. Dim
mock withdrew his name from the list of cand-
dates. The Democrats then nominated Mr..
Swift, the wings nominated Mr.. Randall and for
three days the Senate has been ballotng for spca-
ker, Mr.. Swift received lSvotes and Mr.. Ran
dali le.
