Much time was consumed in calling the roll on yar-
Gus questions, including motions to adjourn. Many
gentlemen were sleeping DOING in their seats and
on sofas, and aroused by their brother Members
guard when their votes were required;
Several stigmatiZed the enacted last night

but under the circumstances they thought better To
20 home and end the farce.
Mr. WINSLOW moyedthe House adjourn TO Friday.

Mr.. LE1CHER said he was perfectly satisfied that
the prospect Of cOOred Republicans for the King

Speaker of which there was earthly probability.
Mr.. ETHERIDGE remarked that the Democrats
had taken the responsibility by holding hundred
and fifty other men in chains.
Mr.. BOWIE replied by saying the Americans have

THE CONTEST FOR SPEAKER or THE
ASSEMBLY.
From on Own Correspondent.

From Or Own Correspondent.
ALBANY, Thursday, jan TO- 1856.
Three direct and desperate efforts were made in the
House of Assembly this morning BY the Know Moth
ings, TO effect organization. But they all proved
unayailng; and even office seekers-those tena.
cous individuals who said to never die-despar of
ever seeing an organization effected, and many have
made up their minds to leave for their homes.
1t was very knowingly whispered about before the
House met that there would not be another adjourn
men. without an organization. But when those who
made the assertion questioned TO how il was
te be brought about none OF them az liberty to
dyulge more Of the secret.
After the first vote was taken, Mr. Van Santyoord
Dem, of Rensselaer, rose and moved that the Hon.
Samuel A. Foot be made Speaker pro tenn, and that
the House then proceed to elect the subordinate
officers. and afterward Speaker.
Is this the plan of organization? inquired every
body; and 10 one could see the force or point of the
proposition. So judge, from the prompt manner in
which il was tabled. Mr.. V. -, in advocating his
proposition, urged the main object he had in view
that the House could ascertain the feeling entertained
regarding the subordinaes! Verify, very important
consideration. Ii was tabled.
The voting for Speaker was then resumed, and no
changes made visible; whersupon Mr. Denniston, X
n, from Steuben, who by the way has rather too
much OF an sntquaed appearance to be classed with
Young America, he being at least 50 years ofage)
proposed 10 adopt the plurality rule He advocated
bis proposition; and then the House, in its turn by
vote of IS against 90 laid il On the table.
Subsequently M. Duganne, X. ", Of York
offered resolution that Lyman Odel be declared
Speaker and that the House proceed by secret ballot
to the election Of the remainder of the officers This
motion was tabled by vote of go to a. showing the
apprec alton Of the House for the Dark Lantern mode
OF proceedng-secret ballot The vote in favor of it
IA Is the exact strength ofthe Dark votares
One more proposition nade-the last-the der
sier resor-the last spoke in the wheel of Know
Nothingsm-the highest, and most open-the great
uusealed proposal Of the great secret order 1t
made By Mr.. jenkins, X. ~, of Albany, and was that
Lyman Odel be declared Speaker, and John 5. Nalew
CleIk.
This proposition disposed OF even more
marty than the Others. vote on tabling this
20 against 81 !
SO you see every hope of getting Speaker through
the united efforts of the KnOw-Nothings aud Demo-
crate Is at an end. What next is to be done We
will wait and see,
