The Amende Honorable.

private letter from the Hon. Guy r. Pei
ton, rofecting unjustly on his colleagues,
Messrs. Whitney and Walk, having appeared
in the New York Tribune, Mr. Pelton has
availed himself of the earliest opportunity to
explain his statements and place those gentle
men in an honorable position.
The following letter from Mr.. Pclton, we
copy from the New York Tribune of the 2Sth
instant
"WAsHNGToN, Thursday, Jan. "a 1855.
my DEAR SHERWOOD: was not little sur
prised to find in the Tribune of the 22d instant,
my letter of the 3oth ultimo as / had supposed
its publication had been suppressed.
Although no blame whatever can be imputed
to you for its appearance, had not for a moment
seriously entertained the thought of allowing the
letter to be published at least not that portion Of
it appearing to reflect upon the political character
of either Of my colleagues.
"Since it has appeared, it is due that should
say that exceedipgy.regret that any personal al
lusions to my colleagues, Messrs. Whitney and
Walk, should have found their way into the col
umns of any newspaper As to whatever may
have said in the letter, / in no wise intended to
mpugn their character as intelligent and indepen-
dent representatives.
Those gentlemen and myself have differed
upon questions involved in the election of Speak
err yet / have entertained toward them personally
none but the most friendly feelings and have not
questioned their honesty. or patriotism in the
course that they have thought proper to pursue in
our present contest.
"The difference between us is merely political,
and, as have never regarded them otherwise than
as honorable men, it is an act of common justice
that the above explanation should appear in the
same paper in which my former letter was pub.
shed.

Silenced.

twill be recollect1d that during the first part
ofthe present session, the Hon. j. Clancy Jones,
of Pennsylvania, consumed much OF the time of
the House, in discussing the caucus platform of
the Irish Brigade, and in denunciation of the
American party he was then a candidate for the
United States Senate, and notoriety was essen
tial to bring him to the notice of the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature The State having repudi-
ated him, he returned to this city, after a
weeks sojourn at Harrisburgh, attempting to
lobby himself into the Senate, and became a
silent observer Of passing events, brooding
over his disappointments, thus hoping to ex-
cite the sympathies Of the Executive, and that
a foreign mission might be offered him. We
pity Mr.. Jones. Cannot this administration
create necessity fora diplomatic mission to
Guinea2 Mr. Jones would be the very man
for that position. He would then be enabled
to appreciate the distinction between the white
and black race.

The latter paper having published state
ment to the effect that Mr.. Brownlow and Col
oner Gentry had had a serious difficulty, Mr..
Brownlow, of the Wing, responds as follows:
"There never was statement made by even
the most unmitigated liar in the infinitely infer
nal ranks of Sag Nichtism, in Tennessee, or else
where, destitute of the shadow of truth, than
that there was ever difficulty, serious or other
wise, between the editor of this paper and Colonel
Gentry, in Nashville or elsewhere.

The Sag NIGHT Caucus Resolve, and How.
ell Cobb.

1t has fallen to our lot to chronicle the &C.
cret history of the famous Sag NIGHT caucus
resolution, which accommodated the Ameri-
can party, and which has fallen far short of alb
solving the Sag NIGHTS from the responsibility.
Mr. Howell Cobb, who had fancied until he
reached the city, that he would be the Sag
NIGHT nominee for Speaker, having ascertained
douglas Texas Prohibition" and "Wilmot
Proviso" the South Carolina, Alabama, Geor-
gia and Mississippi Sag NIGHTS would under no
contingency support him, determined to hoist
Mr.. Richardson over Mr.. Orr, and then ride
Mr.. Richardson with a caucus resolution, IN
der the pretenco OF preserving the organiza-
ton of the administration party" Mr.. Clancy
Jones, who was just at that time thirsty for
notoriety, and who imagined himself fit for a
Senator, was the ready tool of Mr.. Cobb to put
q rider upon Mr.. Richardson. That being ac-
complished, Mr. Cobb felt quite easy until Mr..
Zollicoffer so completely tore away the mask
from Mr. Richardson that the Southern ultra
Sag NIGHTS, seeing the "great principle of
squatter sovereignty in its most detestablc
form, threatened to 60 off. The Sag NIGHTS
were called together, Richardson withdrawn,
and Orr put up. Cobb was determined to
ride him down, and introduced resolution
planting Mr.. Orr "immovably upon Mr.. Rich
ardson's platform. Thus ended Orr. The
next proposition which came before the House
was to elect Mr. Smith, of Virginia Speaker.
Fearing this would be adopted, Mr.. Cobb rose
in his seat and proclaimed the rule of action to
be to preserve the organization of the admins
tration party, even though the House should
go unorganized.
