The Importance Of the Speaker.

Our readers may not generally be
aware Of the peculiar Importance at.
tachcd to the Office of Speaker OF the
House Of Representatives. Under the
rules of the House, no bill except by
unanimous consent, can be acted upon
in that body, unless it is reported by
one Of the committees. These COM
mites arc all appointed by the Speak
or. Should the Anti-Amcrican party
secure the speakership Of ono Of its
members, tho committees would be 50
formed that no bill for the promotion
of tho principals Of the American doc
trincs, would ever nc allowed to be con-
sidcrcd i'll the House. Every ATTEMPT
to Investigate and expose tho hidious
corruption Of the present imbccilo adj
ministration, would be smolhcrcd in
the conmittcc-rooms, and thus the
mlserabIy irresponsible seventy-four
would succeed in sitting every effort
Of the Americans in Congress to carry
out the wishes Of the mass Of the A..
merican people and to correct the abu-
scs Of the Administration.---L0u Jour.

and digested the annual message of the
President, and have made up their
minds upon its merits or dcmerits as
state paper; it is not, therefore, our
intention to review that document, or
10 attempt commentary upon its re-
concentrations and principles. We
have however, q few words Of comment.
and We give them.
President Pierce has assumed the
responsibility to institute a new order
Of things, and to violate established IL
eages, in communicating his message to
Congress, with GOODNESS quite char
acterstic Of the domineeling assump-
ton Of his party. Our relations with
England, as set forth in the message,
may have been sufficiently important
TO have claimed carly communication
to tho Representatives Of the people,
and early action at their hands; but
what great gain has accrued to the
country or the President from the pub
LEGATION Of the document, before Con-
gross could receive it and act upon it.
The Message now lies upon the table of
the House Of Representatives unread;
no Speaker elected; no committees
appointed 70 consider its recommends
tons; no power to move the wheels of
government, to give effect to q single
Sylltblc Of the Executives suggestions.
What o sublime scene to contemplate,
just now, is Pierccocracy and its en-
5odiment, The woodcn-nutmcg Prcsi-
dent! When the followers Of Pierce
came together, at the opening Of the
present session Of Congress, instead Of
endeayoring IN q conservative spirit to
aid an carly and national organization,
they went into a caucus and resolved
not to unite with any other party, but
to stick to their own nominee to the
bitter end. Not only SO, but they de-
