ces the period between the 3Ist of May and

AL the rats In the Fire."-We were
compelled to 90 to press yesterday just as it
became evident that the House would refuse
to lay on the table Mr.. Clingman's proposition
to resort to the plurality rule. We judged
from that vote that it would pass, by a very
tight squeeze; and upon that mistaken ides.
We concluded that by the end of the session to-
day, an organization Of the House would be
Vouchsafed to the country
The remarks of Mr. Boyce, however, proba-
bly, deferred some southern Democratic mem
bers from voting for it, who would otherwise
have done so; while those of Mr. H. Marshall
OF kentucky, undoubtedly created the impress
SION that II driven to choose between voting
Tor an out-and out Nebraska bill man, who is
also In all respects a reliable Democrat, on the
one hand, and voting SO as to enable the Re-
publicans to elect Mr.. Banks on the other
hand, the National Americans would embrace
the latter alternative. This explanation is
the key to the failure of Mr. Clingman s propo-
sition.
Really, We do not at present perceive the
least prospect of turn in the present condi-
ton of things in the House hall-not the least.
We make this confession with unfeigned re-
greet. Certain 1t is, we have exhausted our
store-house Of persu ssives for honor able mem
bsrs, and are just about as heart ick over the
present state of the House as it is possible for
. man to be.
