Chase, Ilouston Petit and Weller, spoke in
favor of his confirmation; Messrs. Bright
Rusk, Butler and Mason against it, Mr. Brod-
head rather argued against, but finally voted
in the affirmative. The debate was exceeding
y rich. One Democrat hoped, if Dix was
confirmed, that the-smal fry nominees OF Free
Soil sentiments would not be mcrcilessly shot,
Zig free dirt sinners being spared. When the
vote was taken the confirmation was carried
by vote Of twcnty-eght to eight. Tne in
