those with whom Mr.. Campbell had acted, were
astonished and alarmed.
But, thank Heaven the danger passed away
The House resolved on a recess till ten o'clock
the following day, when Mr.. Campbell withdrew
his motion, remarking that, as the House had
made up its mind to avoid night sessions, there
was no longer any necessity for it. At his In
stance, the House then rescinded the resolution
for permanent session.
We hope that the motion may never be re.
peated. If anybody is to be placed in the
Chair as temporary Speaker, let it be Mr..
Banks, who has received the largest number OF
votes, and is the choice of the strongest party
in the House. But every one sees that@there
is no reason for displacing the Clerk from lis
present position. He acts promptly and fair,
ly; his functions are simple, and readily dis
charged and the House proves itself sufficient
to its own government. Let no motion be
brought forward calculated to awaken differ
ences of opinion or dstrust among he SID.
porters of MIR. Banks And we hope that thew
will not be seduced into the support of any TN.
reasonable proposition introduced by the sac
tionalists of the House, like that introduced
by Mr. Stephens, which gave occasion for she
unfortunate motion of Mr.. Campbell. The
country will not expect the friends of organiza-
ton in the House to hold night sessions, or
to attempt to starve their opponents into acqu
escence. Balloting continually, from day to
day, avoiding all frivolous motions and useless
debate, they will stand acquitted before Che
People, whatever the result.
AS it is important to keep our fries,ds well
advised in relation to the votes on these various
movements, we present the yea-and nay%vote on
the motion to lay upon the table the resolu-
ton Of Mr.. Campbell.
1t will be seen that the body of Mr.. Banas's
supporters desired to lay it on the table !;
but few of them were absent, or voted With
Mr.. Campbell. The Richardson and Fuller
men, and the Scattering, voted of course in the
negative.
