The New Shuttle and Deal.

There was much Of feeling in the brie!
sddress of the Hon. L. D. Campbell, de-
T. fed in the House Hall yesterday, the
sHStance of which was duly given in our
report of the days proceedings. In the
midst of his proiuslon OF thanks to those OF
his friends who had done the fair thing by
him, there was vein of bitterness towards
those whose friendship had been that of the
lip only-toward the member OF the House
who, protesting ultra anti-slavery sentiments
had refrained from voting tor him ON this,
that, or the other frivolous protext. In
truth, it struck US as he was ultering his
few brief, but really eloquent sentences
that his heart and mind were full of the
realization of the holowness of the profes.
sions of the politicians of the day. for the
study or which this City of Washington il
the points, in these United States OF
America.
He is a bold, frank and chivalrous man
as his personal conduct during many years
service in the House has demonstrated -
tur only regret in connection with him is
not that he was not ssddled with Ihe tr,.
ing duties OF the Speskership Of the thirty.
fourth Congress, but that 80 genial = gentle.
man as he 10 in ell his peasonal relations
should hold his sentiments on the slavery
question. By this time. we fancy, those
Who supported him honestly and earnest y
have come TO realize that no one Of hi.
