Washington News.

Advices to the 23rd, show that there was no
prospect of the election of Speaker. Banks,
the black-repub blican fusion K. N. candidate,
comes within seven votes Of majority, and
there he sticks-"he has reached the end of
his rope; and twelve days and nights, includ-
ing two Sundays, have been vainly appropria-
ted to splice him out" The democracy ad-
here to Richardson--"they have no terms to
offer; the scattering fifty of the opposition have
taken their irrevocable stand against Banks,
and will accept of no compromise; the Banks
men declare they will stick till the 4th of
March, 1857, because it is no business of one
hundred and five mon to surrender to pitiful
half dozen traitorous mutineers. Greely has
fallen into his old habit; he begins to call
hard names, pronouncing Judas and Benedict
Arnold highly respectable individuals COM
pared with some of the free soil apostates Of
the House." In this manner they have glided
into the holidays at the capitol Of the nation.
As members can draw no pay, not even mile
age, until the House is organized, strong hopes
are entertained that they will soon elect a
Speaker.

IMPORTANT OPINIoN.-In the Su-
preme Court Of the State of New Yo,k,
recently, IA new trial was granted upon
an appeal, in The case Of = The People
VS.. Edwin Christie, ct. al.,' who had
b. en- tried for riot on the 4th of Ju'y,
1858, in which Hibernian Society
marching in a procession and some per-
sons IN the sir ct had difficulty, Which
ended in riot. Among other reasons
for new trial, was the following:
The question 10 the witness West
whether he belonged "to theOrder Of
United Americans" should have been
permitted by the court for had it, b,
witnes, been shown that he did, and that
such an order had been established with
prejudice against, and to oppose Irish
and Roman Catholics, such fact was
proper for the jury to receive, to enable
them 10 determine how much, it any,
the witness evidence was wurpt d by the
principles of his Order
