+ SPEAKER ELECTED

The protracted struggle for the Speak.
crStnp WAS brought tC close last evening
| by the election of Hon. n. Z. Banks
Nine full weeks were consumed before this
result w@ a,tained, and it was finally
brought about by the adoption of the pIu
raity rule. Although it is absolutely GER
tam that there Is a majority of represcn-
tntrcs in the House who agree with Mr.
Banks Oh the sectional questions which
now agltate the country, get it las been
demonstrated, again and again, that por-
,ion Of his own political friends would ncv.
or agree to vote for him for Speaker, and
he.cc that he could never be elected by
majority vote.
AS we have. remarked, the contest was
finally terminated under the operation OF
the plurality rule. The votes taken du.
ring several days past had indicated ,ha,
Speaker could only be chosen bv rcsor
ting to that rule. There was strong re-
pungence amongst the national members
/" ITS adoption, moro especially after the
revolving declaration Of Mr.. Banks as to
the test of superiority in the races. The
southern Know Nothings manifested de-
termination against casting their votes for
the Democratic nominees not less persi..
tent than their refusal to vote for Mr..
Banks. Gu Friday however. propositions
were made by Democrats to which the
southern Know N",hings indicated dis
position to accede-the one proposing Mr..
Oliver, an Old Line Wing, and the other
Mr.. Aiken, National Democrat, for
Speaker. The votes on these propositions.
compared with that given on the same dsv
on n resolution declaring Mr. Nank, the
speaker, 2howrd :" little Inference ,ha,
It was exceedingly douldlnl what would he
the Te2uh upon the al"pri"n .frh. plural.
l,f rule. AT this point Mr.. Smith, Of Ten.
nesee, believing that the chances Of Mr.
A'Sen were al least equal to those of Mr..
Banks, brought forward resolution Tor
the plurality rule. Mr.. Orr Immediately
Withdrew uncondi,ionally his name Ms the
democratic nominee. and the resolution
was adopted. The result WAS, as VIC have
stated, the election Of Mr. Banks bv n plu-
rality ofthreo votes-Mr. BanEs receiving
lo3 votes and Mr.. Aiken loo, six Ma.
tional Americana throwing their votes on
Mr.. Fuller, aud four Republicans throw iug
theirs on Mr.. l.. ID. Campbell. Il. is ap.
parent that perfect union Of the national
members the four republicans voting for
Mr. CampbelD would have elected Mr.
Aiken by plurality Of tl.ree. Thus has
ended tho most extraordinary struggle
that has ever occurred. Although tho re-
suit is one which every national man will
regret, Yet ms the Republicans have known
majority in the House, and therefore were
entitled to the Speaker, there is reason for
acquiescing. inasmuch rs it enables the
machinery Of government once moro to
move on.

.2EPLY OF COL, BARNES.

The argument used BY Col. BARNES for
the State TO keep aoof from Conventions,
Is the old fogy notion of the advocates of
retrogrcssion and mastery inactivity."-
The Col. most surely must place an undue
amount of faith in the wisdom and correct
ness of the State, when he saws that the
other STATES are nl wrong and South Caro-
INA is right. Every State in the Union,
every Southern State, is wrong in sending
delegates to Cincinnati, but South Carolina.
she is the embodiment o' wisdom-of polti-
ca! sagacity.
Ii the advocates Of the State being repre-
scnted, have three arguments 10 support
their position. we are sorry We can find but
one to support the opposition; and that is,
that we must adhere to the course we haze
ever pursued, We can prove this by Col.
BARNES own lcrlarat.on. He would be
willing for the State, through her delegates,
on the lsi Monday in May. 10 declare herself
in favor Of the reelection ,f Grnl PIERCE.
| but she must not do so at Cincinnati.-"some-
thing like whipping the devil round the
