Speaker Of Congress.

As it is now, not only highly probable, but al
most morally certain, that there will be Demo-
cratic majority in the next House of Represent
atives, it may not be too early to agitate the
question of the Speakership of that body. We
have favorite for this post, whom we present
to the consideration of the Democracy and its
representatives in the next Congress. We refer
to Gov. JAMES MCDOWELL of Virginia. Cast
ing our eyes over the list of members elect, we
discover none, whom we would prefer to this
distinguished son of the Old Dominion. By what
ever standard he be tried whether of the head
or of the heart, he will be found in the highest
sense equal to the requirements of the place If
talents that would adorn any parliamentary as
sembage OF any country on earth-it integrity.
without spot or blemish-if experience in civil
government the most useful and extensive-it a
bland and dignihed demeanor, yet wholly free
from ostentation-and, above and beyond all, ii
an ardent and binding attachment to the bond
of our common Union, may be regarded as pre-
requisites for this or any other important public
trust. then no more suitable or deserving man
can be named than JAMES MCDOWELL. His
speech in the last Congress, on the Slavery ques-
ton, which was so extensively read and admired,
was alone sufficient to stamp him as Statesman
and Patriot, with few or no superiors. He is
the representative of the Rockingham and Shen-
andoah district, the OLD BERKs of Virginia, and
has been reelected to Congress without COM
petitor. The Speaker of the last Congress was
from Federal Bluelight Massachusetts,. To
make the contrast as marked as possible, may
the next be taken from glorious old Virginia, the
Gibraltar of Democracy, against whose sides the
storms of Federalism haveever beat in vain, and
who, at her recent elections, has won fresh lau-
res, and now presents additional claims to the
respect and gratitude of the nation.
Lancaster (Pa.) InteHigenccr.
70 We cordially concur with our friend of
the Lancaster InteHigentcr, in the nomination of
the Hon. JAMES MCDOWELL for the Office of
Speaker of the next House of Representatives.
There is no man in this broad Union who would
discharge the duties of the office with more a
bility than the distinguished representative of
the 18th Congressional district. His gentleman
ly deportment-his high character-added to
one of the best intelects in the Union, would
give dignity to the station, and assurance to the
members, that the rights of all would be respect
ed. Who so proper to ELL the stationa We
should be pleased to see Mr.. Mcdowell elected
to the Speakers chair; it would be another honor
to Virginia, while it ould be an honor to her
distinguished son. Virginia furnished the Pres
ident to preside over the nation, she can furnish
a greater man to preside over the deliberations
of the peoples representatives.
The remarks of cur Pennsylvania friend are
not Inappropriate and not undeserved, and they
show to our people democrats especially that
their representative in Congress is as highly re-
erented abroad ac he is AT home

AN IMposToR individual calling himself
DR.. S. M. HEWLETT who has been lecturing on
Temperance here in the Valley, and elsewhere
in Virginia, we are sorry to state, is unworthy
of the confidence & respect of the honorable and
respectable Order of the Sons Of Temperance, to
which he processes 10 belong. We have letter
in our possession from worthy and intelligent
Son of Temperance at Stanardsyille which salts
fies us fully that Dr. Hewlett is a scamp OF the
first order. Helectured on the propriety OF Tenn
perance at several points in Eastern Va, [Cul-
pepper and Madison Court-Hou included) and
then gave before he left, practical illustration
of drunkenness in his own person.
Dr. H. is in the habit of having public collec-
tons taken up for him wherever he goes, and OF
quartering himself and family upon those who
are kind enough 10 take him in free of charge.
We eelunderso obligations to the Sons OF
Temperance thus to notice this worthy, especial.
ly as the writer of this paragraph was kind
enough to furnish him recommendations, at his
request.
Editors who wish to warn the Sons of Tenn
perance against an unprincipled impostor will dc
well 10 give DR.. II. the benefit of notice.

Republican vindicator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1857, 1849-06-04

The bearing of the Democratic party in refer
ence to this matter, strkingly exhibits the inso-
lence produced by long tenure OF office, and
nothing is now wanting to satisfy the people that
a change of administration was necessary. In a
few years more they would have claimed all the
offices in the country as their exclusive property,
if they have not done as much already, and no.
thing short of physical force could have dispos-
sessed them.-Spettatof.
70 "Insolenee produced by long tenure Of
o6ice"-and pray, who gave them the tenure I?
Did not majority of the people? In the "a years
that have elapsed since the election of John @.
Adams, who, like Taylor, was minority Presi-
dent, the wings have succeeded but once, in e.
Letting their candidate, and then by conceal
ment of their principles And in 1s4s, they
succeeded, by the aid of popular chief, to elect
another minority President and by the same
means. Thus have the wings crept into power,
by shameful abandonment of principle, and
not because of the popularity of their measures;
for they did not advocate any. Now we are not
so certain that the people are satisfied with the
change, even though according to the Specta-
tory they may have thought it necessary. The
recent elections in Connecticut and Virginia do
not argue much in favor Of the new administra-
tration; while it is very certain majority of the
American people did not place Taylor in his pre-
sent awkward position. The editors of the Spec
tator could not have been in earnest when they
penned the last sentence to the paragraph quo
ted above-they were only joking little To
say "nothing short of physical force could have
dispossessed' the Democrats, ifthey had retain
ed power for "few years." sounds to us very
anti-republican but at the same time it sounds
very Whigish-and here, an important ques-
ton arises Where would the Wings get the
'Fphysical force?" They are and always have
been in minority in the Union-they are in a
minority now. How many Wing Presidents
have been elected What majorities did they
obtain? physical force!" indeed, Ha |! ha !!
Why you haven't got strength enough to elect
your man, without aid from the disahected of the
other party, and who hold no sentiments in
common with the Wings physical force =
"Insolence !" The Spectator men must be jok-
inc
