THE CALDRON AT WASHINGTON.

So Havens, of New York, doubted its expediency.

himself the right to publish the resolutions, with
the fact that they were presented to an American
meeting and rejected. Paine and others denied
Walkers right to do so. Great excitement follow

WASHINGTON, Monday, Dec. 10, 1866.
Banks vote began at 100 this morning, and went
steadily up to l07 where it stood two ballots. The
House was then adjourned by our opponents on a
close vote by the tellers. The Members elected as

Fuller, Willard and Edie Of Pennsylvania; Scott
Harrison, Ball and Moore of Ohio; Dunn and Scott
of Indiana; besides Fuller, of Maine, Williams of
New York, Hickman and Barclay of Pennsylvania,
and Wells of Wisconsin, Anti-Nebraska Democrats.
We need seven out of these and effort has been

ORGANIZATION OF THE House IN 1S49.-In 1949
the House OF Representatives nearly three weeks
in organizing. Some sixty ballottings were had, the
candidates being Mr.. Cobb, of Georgia, and Mr.
Winthrop, of Massachusetts. At length ReSou-
ton was adopted providing that after three more
votes, if no candidate should receive a majority OF
all the votes the House would then elect by pu-
rality and accordingly, Mr.. Cobb was elected by a
plurality of two-his vote being 102, and Mr.. Win
tlrops 100.
On Monday last, motion to adopt similar Res
oluon was made in the House. The motion caused

work and the result is apparent in both houses of
Congress. The fact that the young ard rising men
of North Carolina, who are gaining position and iu-
fuence every day, are the champions of Democrat
ic principles gives assurance Of the reliability of the
change wrought within the last six or seven years.
For ability, marked integrity and uprightness of
character and firm adherence to the doctrines Of
State Rights and the true Interpretation of the Con-
scitution, the Democratic portion of the delegation
from North Carolina yields to that from no other
State; they reflect honor upon the State they repre-
sent, and upon the party Of which they are menu
