territorial officers of Kansas, with the ex-
ception of Gov. shannon.
In the House of Representatives the Speak

MIR. Whitfield, the Bogus delegate from Kan
sas was sworn in, although several members
took occasion to say that they did not protest
against it, because objection at this stage
would only increase confusion. The claims CT

thorough-going AntiNebraska man. A COM
mittee was appointed to wait on the Presi
dent, and inform him that the House was
ready to receive any communication he might
please to make-which, though all right as a
matter of rule, would seem to be superiu-
Gus proceeding. considering that the Pres-
dent had already sent in two messages, with
out waiting for the House tc notify him, or,
in fact, to be ready to receive them 1t is
stated that at least five hundred applicants

Ex-Governor Rccder's Letter.

tx Gov Recder has written an able letter
on the Presidents Kansas Message. When
the proper time comes q" to discuss its mis-
statements OF facts and its errors Of law and
logic" viz. when he shall be allowed to speak
on the hoor of the House, he pledges himself
" to meet and expose them" So far as the
Message attacks himself, he asks only for
suspension of opinion till both sides can be
heard. In its relation to the people Of
Kansas, he says
- Unless the message shall incite and st,n-
ulate new invasions of our territory and fresh
outrage upon our citizens, it will produce to
US no regret, as it caused no surprise AZ
ter having seen our people trampled on, OPP
pressed and robbed, on the one hand, by the
invaders Of their soil, and ON the other by
the influence, the authority, and the officers
Of the present administration after having
witnessed the cold FLOODED murder OF an un-
armed and unOhendlng citizen 10y IN officer Of
the administration, who is not only unmo-
Tested by the laws, and unrebuked by the
President who appointed him, but who has,
perhaps, strengthened his Official tenure and
enhanced his chance of promotion by the act,
it is not at all surprising that we should, by
the head of that admins tration be misrepre-
sented and perverted.
After having seen the chief magistrate
during five organized invasions of our terri
tory, unmoved by a single sympathy in favor
Of an unotfending people innocent of all wrong.
and laboring only to carry out faithfully for
themselves the doctrine of seltgovernment,
and to build up and extend the greatness of
our country after seeing our. invaders coming
upon us armed without reFroot, il not with
official permission,) from the contents of the
arsenals of the United States, establishing a
system of martial law over life and property,
regulated only by the uncontrolled will of
vindictive and irresponsible men-a system
under which life was taken and property de-
stroyed the highways INSTRUCTED travellers
seized, searched and detained all the pur-
suits Of life paralyzed, and the destruction
and determination ofwhole settlements threat
ened ana evidently intended-backcd up 10y
the sanction and authority Of the federal OH
GERS, who pledge publicly the cooperation of
the President and all based upon the fact
that a man encouraged, perhaps aided, by
his friends, had made his escape from an ar
rest on constable peace warrint--nltcr hav-
ing thus seen our natural and legal protectors
joining in the most atrocious measures Of OPP
preston and wrong, it is no matter of surprise
to see misrepresentation OF our position and
our objects emanating from the same source.

Mr.. Banks Elected Speaker.

Saturday evening brought the niue weeks
struggle over the speakership to close.
rhe decision TO have the question decided by
plurality vote, once made was adhered to,
in spite Of oil attempts to got it reversed.
The administration party had taken up new
man, Mr. Aiken of 5, c., who it was hoped
under the plurality rule would be elected.
But it did not avail them. Mr., Banks re-
ceived 1903 votes and Mr. Aiken but 100. The
whole number Of votes cast was pa.
The ability Of Mr.. Banks for the place. Is
acknowledged ON all hands. The determine
ton OF the Administration party proper, and
ofthcir ally, the South American party, to re-
sist his election above all things, came from
the open, manly ground which he had taken
on the Republican side Of the great question
now before the nation, and the fearlessness
and candOr with which he made his positions
known, in answer to all intcrrogatories on
'hc floor Of the House, rs well as elsewhere
70 break him down, in their view would
break down the Republican party at Wash
ington; and if broken there, they looked for
its entire prostration. Hence fer two months
they kept up the contest. Tho they could not
ngree on any one man, they could agree to sus-
tain slavery aggression, and the entire consum-
nation Ct the iniquity committed in the pas
snge Of the Kansas Nebraska bill Therefore
they could agree to fight Mr. Banks, and to fight
the Republicans. Could they be driven to
break their line-to abandon their man, a
thorough rout was reckoned on as a sure
result
Whatever differences of opinion at tho
outset there were among the enemies of Slave.
~ aggression, as to who would best represent
their principles and aid in the Speakers chair
the just cause in which they were engaged,
they were soon laid aside, Quietly, firmly,
orderly, the supporters of Mr. Banks held
their ground The Richardson men, the
Fuller men, the Orr men, the Aiken men and
the ridiculous scatterings, denounced them,
rallied at them, talked the dissolution Of
Union at them made all sorts OF motions to
allure them and to circumvent them, In ell
things they failed, For the first TING the

;ETHE HARD WINTER. The mails bring news
of another widespread storm of snow and
wind on Sunday. The Railroads in Central
and Western New York appear to have had a
tough time of it. At Oswego the snow is
said to be five feet deep ON Il level and badly
drifted. From all parts Of the Country, from
Maine to Florida, come accounts of unusual
ly severe weather. In New York city the
sleighing has been uninterrupted for four
weeks, very remarkable state Of things,
The mean temperature Of January at Bos-
ton, was ga above zero, or nearly 7 : de-
grees below the average of the month for 80
years, more than IL , colder than the pre-
yious January. The Mississippi is closed for
navigation its entire length by ice, the float
ing ice near the mouth even rendering it I'M
safe for Steamers fact without precedent
in memory or tradition. At Memphis, Tenn,
the ponds are frozen to the thickness of ten
or twelve inches, and the people are storing
their own ice, u thing that the oldest inLabi-
tant can not recollect to have occurred be-
fore. Other Southern cities this year have
their ice supply at their own doors, which
will affect the trade in that article next
season. A dispatch Of Feb. 4th, from indie
pendence, Mo-, states that the thermometer
is % > below zero, and the snow three or
four feet deep on level on the Plains All
the men and animals on the Salt Lake route
are supposed to have been frozen on the
