Legislative Summary.

The Senate met yesterday morning, having
received and accepted an invitation from the
Agents of the Southern Methodist Publishing
House to visit their establishment, and an
invitation accompanied with season tickets,
from the Board of Directors Of the Mechanics
Institute to visit their Fair at Odd Fellows
Hall, adjourned until a. n. to-day.
In the House yesterday the motion fMf. Dortch
providing for the election of Speaker by a
plurality vote having come mp in order, Mr.
Hatton offered asabstitute which was adopted.
The substitute provided substantially that after
three additional ballots for Speaker without an
election, another ballot should be had, and the
candidate having the highest voteof quorum
should be declared elected. 1t was laid on the
the table, and subsequently, with view to
get it again before the House, motion was
made to reconsider The Clerk proceeded
to call the House, on the motion, and Mr..
HATroE, when his name was reachad, obtain
ed leave to give the reasons for the vote he was
about to give. In doing this, he made brief
but comprehensive and cogent argument in ia
vor Of his resolution-an argument, the force
of which we cannot see how the minority can
resist. In the course of it be referred to the
patriotic conduct of Wings, who, under cir
cumstances identical with those in which the
House was now involved, chose rather to vote
for, and did vote for and elect the Democratic
candidate for Speaker of the Senate, two years
ago, rather than delay the organization Of that
body. He cited also resolution which had
some years since been offered In the House of
Representatives of the United States by Gov.
JOHNSON, when that body was unable to make
an election of Speaker, aud read from speech
made by Cow. on that occasion. His substi-
tute, he said, was q copy of one which had
been adopted in lieu of Gov. JoHNsoN's resolu
ton, and which secured the organization OF
the House. When lie closed, the motion to
reconsider was withdrawn, and the election of
Speaker again taken up. Gov. BRowN having,
when bis name was called, withdrawn from
the canvass, after making neat aud appropri-
ate speech in explanation-the House took 8
recess for dinner.
In the Eceaing, GEE. DoNELsoE, after some
explanatory remarks, withdrew his name as
candidate for Speaker.
The resolution offered in the morning by
Mr.. HArroN was then adopted, and in presence
thereof, Hon. NELL S. BRowN, on the 4th
ballot thereafter, it being the forty-ninth call
of the Honse, having received a plurality of
votes, was declared elected Speaker.
The election of Principal Clerk was then
taken up, and on the first ballot d. r. Clai-
borne, of Franklin, was elected, having re-
ceivea 81 votes, r. s. Saunders receiving s6.
One ballot wss then had for Second Clerk
without an election, and after adopting reso-
luton in regard to the death Of T. J. PAvATT,
the House adjourned to A. NJ. to-day.

Tho Re-snactment of the Missouri Compromise
Abandoned.

The N. Y. Courier and Enquirer has been
one of the most uncompromising advocates of
the re-enactment of the Missouri Compromise.
II at one time staked every thing upon this one
issue. But we are glad to perceive that that
able and Influential journal has abandoned this
insane project, and in the following article de-
liberately grounds its arms, and declares for an
armistice with the Conservatives who have OPP
posed the agitation of the movement:
1.-The Missouri Compromise Is past hope and
mast praying for. IL Is DEAD. By enemies stab
bed, and by friends drugged into the sleep that
knows no waking. We have stood by 1t 10 the
last-have hoped for il when others have aban-
doned themselves to mere amenting; have held
Il M when others have folded their hands, and
have ministered unto il when others have been
for shutting il off and Kidding the world OF u
forever. We have worked for il faithfully aud
perseveringly. We have worked in vain. The
breath is 40 longer in il. Let the coffin pass.
The Courier and Enquirer proceeds to show
In the following brief review Of the position
assumed by the sectionalists of the North, in
what ridiculous attitude extremists some
times place themselves before the country.
The resolutions which follow, are specimen
of the kind of munitions which the free-soil,
anti slavery agitators of the North consume
in waging their unholy war. 1t is to such
specous and absurd appeals to the people, that
the South is indebted for the general mlscon-
ception of themselves and their institutions,
and the al-prevsilng prejudice against both,
which characterizes their Northern brethren.
The Courier and Enquirer has done well IN
in thus showing them up. Addressing these
agitators, il says:
But gentlemen, when you ask Us 20 20 70 the
grave and swear with you before high heaven 20 take
vengeance on its mutderers. must think OF that;
ave. we must think Of H. You must put yourselves

Federal Territory by any means whatever.
