WASHINGTON, Dec 26.
In the House of Representatives, Mr.. Moore
of Ky, (South American) moved that Mr..
Boteler of Va. (South American) be declared
Speaker.
The clerk ruled the motion out of order,
and debate followed, of no special interest.
The menotomy Of the days proceedings was
varied by Mr.. Smith of Va, one of the proni-
nent speakers, receiving, while on the floor,
several glasses of the southern Christmas
drink, egg-nog The incident provoked sey-
eral happy salles, and good nature ruled the
roost
The House finally adjourned in confusion,
without taking the usual ballot for Speaker.
WASHINGTON, Dec. q.
SENATE.
The Presidents Message being sent in, Mr..
Iverson moved to take it up. Mr.. Collamer
objected, because so many Senators were alb
sent it being understood that no business is
to be done during Christmas week. The
Message should not be read until members
are present. Mr.. Davis thought an order to
print should not be moved now. But the docu-
ment might properly be read. Mr.. Fessenden
thought the Senate must pass motion before
it could be read, and this would be contrary
. to the agreement.
After some further discussion, the Senate
ordered the Message to be read-yeas %, nays
H. The reading occupied an hour and half.
Mr.. Brown said he should hereafter make
some remarks on the message, and suggested
that it be laid on the table for the present.
Mr.. Bright moved that the message and docu-
ments be printed, but asked that the motion
lie over till after the holidays. The Senate
then adjourned to Friday next.
HOUSE.
Mr.. Smith of Virginia closed his speech, de-
manding of the north suppression OF publ
cations against slavery. Mr.. Houston of Ala
bama proposed resolution to choose a tempo
rary Speaker for ten days, and to pass post
Office appropriation bill without doing any
thing else. The Republicans objected, unless
John Sherman be the man they wished to
organize for the whole term. Another vote
for Speaker was taken -

2. That we are more aud more firmly convinced
that the Constitution Of the United States is the
great strong hold and bulwark Of this system Of
violence and oppression, ard that, therefore, we
will continue % testify against it, refuse the oath
of allegiance to it, or obey it's unholy require

3. That the infamous Fugitive Slave Bill, which
makes the North the hunting ground Of tue slave
holder, which expressly contravenes and contra
diets Gods fugitive law, viz Thou shalt bot de-
liver unto the master the servant which is escaped
from his master unto thee, he shall dwell with thee,
even among you in that place which he shall

more infamous bred Scott De ision, which not
only makes slavery in every sense a national insti-
tuition, but expressly declares that "the colored
man has no rights which the white man is bound
to respect" are perversions of justice and judg-
ment so erroneous that they ne not only to be
violated in letter and in spirit, but demand as the
contamination Of national integrity--that the
Ministry direct against them the denunc;ations
and the judgment of Code word.
A. That we discover no hope for the slave, no
prospect for his dsliverance from the principles OF
any of the political organizations of the day

rather than political power in the Contest with
oppression.

firm, faithful and explicit testimony againtt those
ecclesiastical organizations who continue to admit
within their pale those who make merchandise OF
the souls and bodies of men, and who, although

fer the emancipation of the c~aptives, the coming
of that day when God will break every yoke, undo

RING OF THE TRUE INITIAL.

The resolutions of the Reformed Presbyterian
Synod, which will be found in another column.
have the true anti-slavery ring. With the posi-
tions of such a church, aboliti)nists have no con-
Whether they individually agree with.
or differ in theological opinions from that body all
m ust acknowledge that their anti-slavery is of the
genuine stamp and it is only in regard to the
position of Church organizations in reference to
the cause of the slave, that we oppose those who
are derelict in Christian duty,
The members of the Reformed Presbyterian
Church are not only opposed to slavery in the
Territories, but TO slavery in the States, and to
slavery in the Church. They don't declare that
Squire A., because of bis Democratic party con-
~nections, shall not receive their votes for Justice
of the Peace. and afterward elect him Deacon in
the Church; they don't declare thatho Buchanan
Democrat is fit to be a Constable. and afterward
ordain Just such a man to be a Preacher Of the
Gospel. They are consistent abolitionists-they
carry their anti slavery principles into their eeele-
~siastical and polical relations, fellowshipping
neither church member, nor party politician who
s~ustains slavery either through religious or State
organization.

GOVERNOR CHAsE'S SPEECH.

We had not the pleasure of hearing the Cover
hor's speech n: the Cleveland meeting. If the re-
port given in the papers of that city do him jus
lice, .he speech was about what might he expected
under tho circumstances The meeting was part
~ designed to influence the action Of the State
Court, and we heard of some suggestion in private
is to the Improperly of the Executive taking any
part in such q meeting.
The speech contains no treason, no i%nfamatory
appeals, no setting up of the Higher Law above
State and National authorities. 1t counsels peace,
Submission to the powers that be. and ballot-box
redress for what is deemed Objectionable. The
only point which The Herald thought worthy Of
italics, is the avowal. that so long as he was Gov
ernor of Ohio, the process of her courts should be
executed-they should not be i~nterfered with oil
resisted, but should be fully enforced. The peo
pie Of Ohio could certainly expect nothing Jess
from their Executive, whether he be Republican
or Democrat. Had a Democrat been the present
occupant of the Chair of State. he probably would
not have attended the meeting at Cleveland, but
he wonld uuquestionably Go all-sbould the con-
~tingency %arise-which the Republican Governor
declared that he would do.
The State Court has spoken since the Governor
spoke, and has endorsed the action of the FEEDER
al Court ; and the Governor declared in advance,
that it had a perfect right TO carry It's decree into
action, and its decree was that Bushnell and Langs-
ton be remanded to Cayahoga County Jail. Had
the people arisen in their majesty, as they had q
right TO do, and as they ought to have done, de-
tsrmined to set that decision aside, Governor
Chase would have been as prompt-though prob

REPUBLICAN NOMINATION.

last weea, md closed its laoors and its e1isience.
The party has now q State ticket, and u new plat
form. WILLIAM DENNisoN, of Columbus, heads
the list of nominees as Governor. We have not
room this week for its resolutions, which we wish
to place beside those Of the Democratic Conven-
ton, so our readers may have "a good opportunity
to contrast the two series.
The nominations are all Of them especially good,
as are also the nominations upon the Democratic
State ticket and each is bound to succeed. This,
however. we do not give as our individual opinion,
but are indebted for the facts to our Republican
and Democratic exchanges.

THE FAIR.

We hope the impression will not prevail that
the Horticultural Fair will be wanting in interest.
The remark has frequently been made that it will
be a failure. We feel sure that the reverse will
be true, as we have seen many very fine flowers
uninjured by the frost, which win DO at the exbi-
bition. Doubtless all interested will generousl 4,
bring the flowers they have. even though they
should rob their gardens of oil their beauty.
The decorated Hall, the fno pictures, the social
intercourse would seem to be sufficient to attract q
crowd, even though we are minus a little fruit
and a few flowers. In addition TO the home dis
play. very likely we shall have help from abroad,
as more than one LIorticalturist expected to be
present.

only made now by little third-rate men. The ltad-

We are referred to the fact that men who formerly
acted with the Abolitionists are now numbered
among the Republicans. This is true, but they do
not give character to tho party eny moro than the
extreme disunion fanatics of the South, who vote
with the Democracy, give character to that party"
And yet some of "the abolitionists now number
ed among the Republicans" become terribly pro-
Soked when we tell them these very truths. We
have ever aimed tc so draw the line between Re-
publicans and abolitionists, that the wayfaring
man, though q fool, need not confound the two
