HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

Mr.. cox offered a preamble proposing, in true
spirit of patriotism, TO waive some OF the pontlca
rncinIes in order to secure the election of Speaker
members reserving the right TO insist on them
practically hereafter, and concluding with resolution
that all who thus agree will first vote for Mr. Orr anu
if he be not elected then vote for Mr. Fuller OF Penn
sylvania, inviting all conservative men 20 unite IN
tbs arrangement with the reservation herein con-
tanned. ,.
Mr.. CLINGNAN, in explaining his reasons for offer
ingl the plurality resolution yesterday, said nothing
was further from his purpose than the election OF MI
Banks but he desired that the National Americans
who stand on the twelfth section of the Philadelphia
PLATFORM as the cornerstone of their party, as PATRIOTS
to let the AK fall on Mr.. Banks.
Mr. HUMPHREY MARSHALL said that his
friends could procure a satisfactory response
from the Democrats regarding the measures the latter
advocate and denied that they had the right to calcu-
late any line of principle to drive the Americans 10
the wall by forcing them to choose between Banks and
Mr. COBB (Ga.) said that as he was determined not
to vote for Mr.. Fuller even in the event On could not
be elected he would be acting in bad faith were he to
favor the resolution. He would act irrespective of all
combinations.
Mr. cox said he would vote for any man who
maintained the constitutional guarantees and reserved
rights of the States. No party ties should in this pc
cuar condition of affairs prevent him from discharg
ing his duty to his country. If the course Indicated
by Mr.. Cobb of Ga. was pursued, the House would
never organize.
Mr. BOCOCK opposed the resolution, fearing that
some Fuller men would refuse To vote for MIR. Orr.
Mr. LINDIEY never could vote for the nominee of
the Democratic caucus with the platform annexed
Dir. COX'S resolution rejected by a vote OF 80
against l76.
Mr.. HICKMAN offered resolution to elect by
plurality.
motion to lay the resolution on the table was lost
by one majority.
Mr. Triple then submitted as a substitute
luton declaring William Smith of Virginia, Speaker.
Mr. Trppe said his proposition presented to Democrats
the question whether they would adopt the plurality
rule and thereby elect Mr. Banks, vote for his re-
solution and elect man who is Democrat and who
ba, voted for Mr.. Richardson and Mr. On. Mr.. Tnppe
closed with the remark that he would never vote for
the nominee of the Democratic caucus.
motion TO lay the whole subject on the table was
disagreed by "a against 1872. Mr. Tppes substitute
was then rejected by vote of 100 against ITO.
Mr. Hickmans resolution was Enacted upon when
the House adjourned.

INTERESTING CURIosITIEs.-Througb the pohtenes
of our friend Dr. Newton X. Flemming, we yesterday
had placed in our hand several interesting canoHtes
Interesting because of the localities from which they
were taken and because Of the veperatlon with which
every Christian or Israete regards those localities.
l. A rock from the top of Mount Sinai
q A vial containing water from the River Jordan.
g. A vial containing water from the Dead Sea.
4. A paper containing flowers from the Valley Ct
Jehosephat.
s. A paper containing flowers from the Garden Of
Eden.
These curiosties were brought to this country by
" Sam Parsh," most worthy, intelligent mulatto
man, well known in Nashville, Tenn, and who now
resides in this city.
Ip MacGayock's interesting work entitled I" A Ten
"nersee1n Abroad, Sam is favorably noticed; ~
appears that he the servant who attended the
Hon. Mr.. Ewing during bis tour in Europe ana the
East. He is noticed in the work referred To as having
on occasion displayed great intrepidity and
bravery. In a fight in village OF Embarbeh, in
Egypt, with the Arabs, while bravery defending ms
master he received shot in the neck, which laid him
up AZ Cairo for some time. "Sam" in other respects,
as well az prowess in times Of peril a man 20 be
relied upon The taste which be displayed in bis CO..
lections and his yeneraton for all that the
Holy Land, are much TO be commended. To as,
through the kindness of DIR. FIemming, be has irn-
parted qualification which we shall long remember.
We have tasted of the water OF the Dead Sea- and thai
of the River Jordan; have touched portion OF
Mount Sinai; we have inhaled the perfume Of flowers
from the Valley Of Jehosepbat, and from the Cardsn
of Eden; and although these last were withered and
had lost most of their original sweetness, st imagna
ton and our teachings from childhood to the preser
hour made them 10 the rose Of the valley and t
"lly Of the vale" while Sinai's rock and the wates
of Jordan and the Dead Sea revived many lessn
