HOUSE OF DELEGATES.

TUESDAY, Jan. 10, 1882.
The Select Committee under the Resolution adopted
yesterday, relative to the rules oil the House. was
announced by the Speaker follows
Messrs, Tomlin. Goode OF (Meck.) Miller, Early
Jones OF Chesterfield RUSSELL Lsske Price and Martz-
On motion of Mr.. ToNLrN, Resolved That this
House. in the presence Of the Senate if the Senate shall
agree thereto will proceed this day at l O'Clock to
open the returns for the election of Governor and
Lieut. Governor, ard count the votes, to decide who
is elected by the people, for the said offices respsc
lively.
And thereupon Mr.. Whoeler was directed to COM
muncate the resolution 10 the Senate and shortly al
forwards message was received from the latter body
informing the House that it concurred in the resolu-
ton having for its object the opening and examina
ton of election returns.
The Speaker remark ed, that as the members of the
Senate would be received IN body by the House it
would be necessary 10 make some preparation for
their reception and accordingly instructed the officers
10 clear the sses and privileged seats go as TO afford
the necessary accommodations.
On motion of Mr.. LEWIS,
Resolved, That a joint committee two members
from the Senate and Two from the House, be apponted
sssat the Speaker in counting tine votes for Gov.
ernor and Lieut. Governor.
Mr.. LEWIS was appointed TO communicate the above
resoI luton 10 the Senate, which was agreed to- and
I o'eock the ne mbsrs, repaired in body to the
House OF Delegates, aud took thei- seats within the
fiGil.
The Speaker announced The readiness of the House
to proceed with the business of the DAY.
Mr.. scaTr OF Fauquer, called Alteration to that pro-
vision ot the Constitution which requires the Speaker

ence of majority OF the members OF both Houses ;"

SLAVE OWNERS ENGRAVING TO CALIFORNIA.
The Charleston Evening News states that
considerable emigration of slave owners with
their slaves,is going forward to California from
North Carolina. A party of twenty three North
Carolnians, with twenty nine slaves, were in
Charleston at last dates, awaiting the de parture
of the steamer Isabel for Havana. The News
says that most of these emigrants have practi-
cal knowledge of gold digging and will doubtless
meet with success in the mines of California
This enterprise strikes us as an extremely hazar-
dous one. Even supposing the North Carolinians
are fortunate enough to reach the mines in safety
with their slaves, we question whether those
slaves will be permitted to labour, as slares aonp
side the white miners, who are, of sill others. the
'largest liberty men," Moreover the sentmen,
OF the people of Cal fornia is known to be mimi
cal 10 savery-the laws of the country do no,
recognise it as an institntion-and the slave own
er has no recourse provided his slaves should dc
termine to assert their claim to freedom. These
considerations, therefore, naturally lead to the
opinion that few Southern slave owners will be
wingto follow the example set by those citizens
Oh MOTH CdTOliid WHO liHf6 dIrcdGy eErlETdtsd.-
That slave labour might be rendered extremely
profitable in the mines of California, there cannot
exist doubt and to our apprehension it appears
equally clear that gross outrage WAS perpatra-
ted upon the whole South, by virtually excluding
slavery from tie country but such is the law of
the land and it becomes the duty OF all good citizens
torespect the mandate even though it should forev
er exclude them from the country.

MR.. WEBSTER
Washington letter in the New York Courier

Washington letter in the New York Courier
says:
Much and sincere qualification was felt and express
ed here in all the political and diplomatic circles at
prisoners. To the discretion, zeal and energetic action
OF Mr. Webster, are those men, and their families and
friends almost exclusively indebtedfor ,hisdeliveranee
AND II he is to receive more substantial token oil
public gratitude for service, deserving so much con.
slderation he will, at least, enjoy the consolation Of
having carried happiness 10 hundreds OF iresides where
desoaton brooded and hope was hardly permitted to
be cherished In this, in a II other matters, affecting
the rights, interest and honor of his countrymen, Mr.
Webster has acted under noble and elevated sense OF
duty and fulfilled every Obligation which patriotism or
humanity might claim, with manly disregard OF per-
sona consequences and earnest purpose to do right
at every hazard"

M. KossurH AND JUDGE BAyLy OF vA-We see
it stated on the authority of Washington Let.
ter-wrier, that Judge Bayly has had conversation
with NJ Kossuh at the request Of the latter in which
the Judge told him he could never succeed in his OBJ
ieets Kossuth wished to know his reasons for his
declaration III the House, that ninc-tenhs of the
American people were utterly to Intervention
in foreign affairs directly indirectly, now or at any
time. Mr.. Bayly gave him substantial reasons, and
especially OF political nature, for his opinion, and
also the strongest proofs. as derived from an exen
sive acquaintance with pubic sentiment of the fact
Still, however, Kossuth labors under the deluson
that the mass Of the American people are with him.
He says that he is aware that the present adnnsira-
ton and the present Congress opposed to his
vews; but he has been led to believe by deaaa sosues
in New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, that the
people will everywhere declare in favor of his views
and objects.
