WASHINGTON, Dec. II.
HoUsE.--The House still engaged in per-
sonal business. No ballotting Tor Speaker
Mr.. Cox discussed the question Of Slavery
and defended It's extension under he Consti-
tuti n.
Mr.. Ethridge differed from the gentleman,
claiming that the south hold their slaves in
contempt of the Constitution
MIR. Cox, after giving several gentlemen an
opportunity of explanation concerning the
Kansas Nebraska bill, concluded his three
hours speech on the recognized princirles Of
the American party.
Mr.. Cobb, Of Ga., defended Democratic
friends from the charge that they are respon.
slble for the failure to organize the House.
lnasmuch as being in the minority, they are
powerless, without union with those with
whom they do not sympathise. The protective
principles of Know Notningism, he said.
formed an impossible barrier TO a union with
them lie invoked the friends of Mr.. Rich
ardSon TO stand firm and not waive the Dem
ocratc organization, especially at q time
when 1t Is purged 10 the last vestire of Free
Sollsm and entering upon new triumphs of
principle.
Mr.. Foster replied, saying the Democrats
had welded themselves to a measure and not
a great principle, for At had come out to. day,
that the Nebraska bill is understood differ
emily in one section from another If prin-
ciple is the test let it speak but one language.
He condemned the Democratic caucus reso-
luton. Adjourned.

Riot.

On last Thursday evening, four Irishmen,
named Timothy and Matthew Shanahan. Ed
ward and Patrick sweeney, entered the house
of Isaac Henshaw, living at Oakland Mills,
dragged him out of his house and commenced
beating him in a cruel manner They were
arrested in their hellish designs BY Ezra Con-
nor, who jerked two Of them off, when Mr..
Henshaw was enabled to clear himself of the
other two. Mr.. Henshaw was considerably
hurt, having one arm badly bruised and u Sc
we're stroke in the back by brickbat
On Friday, the Deputy Sheriff brought the
rioters to town, where they had hearing be-
fore Justice kile. and were bound over To
Court, 500 bail each.
The cause of the disturbance is stated TO
be, that the Irishmen supposed that Henshaw
had shot their dog. There had been an alarm
OF mad dogs in the country, and Henshaw
had requested them TO shut up their dog.
which they refused to do. On the evening
of the fracas the dog was shot at and wound
ed. Thus for the supposed killing Of dog,
peaccsble citizen was taken from his house
his life endangered, his family frightened
and the peace of the country broken. We
have no mercy for such eutrages. There are
too many husbands who would rather have
their wives disgraced, than their dogs abused.
We know not whether Mr.. Henshaw killed
the dog or not, neither do we care, it makes
no difierence-who would not have killed
him If he thought there was danger of his
going mad PIP Mt. Pleasant Observer

SUBSTANTIAL RUSSIAN SYnpArzY.-The
Washington Union Of SATURDAY. contained
the following item Of intelligence "We are
informed that esperson who desires to rema; n
unknown has addressed to the chief of the
Russian legation check for four Thousand
dollars to be transmitted to his governments.
The unknown donor, who only signed the In
itlals NJ Y, states in his letter that. f" full of
admiration for the gallant defence of Sebas-
topol, he sends this liberal sum of money 10
be distributed among the widows and orph
ans OF the Russian soldiers who fell brayelv
lighting for their homes against foreign az
gresgors.'
GB'T The London Spectator savs-in rela-
ton to the war between England and the
nlted States-''we might have expected
some such dlsgraceful result when we en-
ploy crlmps to pick up in foreign countries
recruits Tor our army, instead of looking to
the manhood of England, and rewarding her
national soldiers with sufficient inducements
70 bring them into service. If we have af-
fr0nted, we have laid ourselves open to the
aiiront, and certainly there is nothing in the
quarrel which Justlfes any proud or pcremp-
tory bearing on our part"
~" Some idea Of London fog NAV be
obtained from the following paragraph in an
English paper: Several accidents. attended
with loss of life, took place in London and
ITS suburbs owing to the dense fog Yesterday
week. great many robberies were com
mltted during the fog. Men, women and
children, were wayaid by thieves and robbed
with impunity, il being impossible for any
police officer, even if stationed within ten or
twelve yards of them, to see what was going
on.
THE Cosr.-According to a Paris CORES
