ed around English, shaking hands with

no other demonstrations in the Hall, the
Speaker, before the vote was declared, hav-
ing given warning to the audience.
The Democrats have fired salutes this
evening in front both of the Capitol and
the White House in honor of their victory
and TO please the boys, who alone are ju-
bilant. The thoughtful portion of the Ad.
ministration party regard this as Bunker
Hill victory. They have surrendered al,
most every point for which they con-
tended at the outset, without having
the grace to do so in a frank and manly
manner.
The Republicans are buoyant and exult-
ant, in spite of their seeming defeat. They
regard the overthrow of the Lecomptor
Democracy as already decreed, and desire
no better weapon for future political con
fiicts than the record of the English swim
die. GiLdings was in the House to-day
and voted on all questions that arose.
This, his third attack of disease of the heart
was slighter than the former ones. He is
however. still feble.
Tie dispatch of the Soth to the Times,
says:
The Republicans are not at all depress-
ed, but say that it is only Bunker Hill
defeat, to be followed like that, by the up.
rising of the country. The best Opposition
speakers will be throwninto Kansas as soon
as the election is ordered, with the expec-
tation of defeating the Constitution, in
which case a renewed application for ad-
mission with the new Constitution, in spite
of the prohibition, will be advised.
The admission of Minnesota will now i'm.
mediately be brought up by Stephens in
the House, and the Senate will proceed to
consider the Cass-Trisarri Treaty.
The appointments for the whole State Of
Ohio will be made Immediately, the Presi-
dent having only waited for the disposition
of the Kansas bill. The State is already
made up in favor of the Pugh wing of the
Democracy. The only probable exception
is Gray the Cleveland Postmaster, whose
late misfortune will secure his retention.
"What is meant by the "Pugh wing Of
the Democracy" is enigmatical. In Ohio,
Pugh is regarded as the mere candle ap-
pendage Of the many headed monster.
At all events he is said to have opposed any
change in the Cleveland Postmaster from
the start.
