THE RIVAL CANDIDATES.

A Washington correspondent gives the
following sketch of the rival candidates for
the Speakership;
Thomas S. Bocock, Of Va. the De.
mocratic candidate for Speaker, is man
Of thoroughly national and moderate views,
a member Of the greatest experience in the
House and one who is universally esteemed
for the possession of sound judgment, good
temper, great courtesy Of manner, and very
decided abilities lie is tall and rather
graceful man, of some 4S or SO years of
age, with aduiline features, long face brown
side whskers and imperial, mild gray eyes,
and plentiful supply Of dark chestnut
colored hair, arranged on his head with
considerable adroitness. Ofcourse, in the
present 'controrersy he has no opportunity
TO speak but it is well understood that lie
is at any moment willing to sacrifice his
personal aims to secure compromise of
all the interest net openly or secretly in
league with the Republican party.
His chief rival, John Sherman, of Ohio
is man some ten years his junior, Of mid
die hight and nervous figure with fine
square forehead, light brown hair, light
beard shaven on the upper lip, large blue
ish eyes, prominent perceptive faculties,
and features of the ordinary New England
mould, with touch in them of 'frmness,
resolute will and subllefy. During each
ballot Mr.. s. appears agitated, and at
tempts to conceal his nervousness by taking
up newspaper, which trembles in his
hands as he holds it.
John A. Gilmer, Of North Carolina, the
South American candidate is a large and
robust-looking man-much such man as
Senator Toombs in style-with dark thick
hair bushing out on all sides Of his head,
full dark whiskers curling round his chin
and checks; decp-set and laughing dark
eyes, features irregular and defying all classic
models, but full of strength, and with a
general air of good humor and slynlss
good breeding and peace of mind, such as
t'does the eye good to rest upon in this
hurried and agitated city.

OLD FOGY FILTRATION.

Goethe was sixty and Rcttina sixteen
aud the tenderness between them is to be-
come one Of the classics of German literature
Ticknor and Fields have just published the
translation of their correspondence. 1t is
not so impossible as it at first seems, for it
is curious fact that some women love the
intellect of man without utEtbinking of his
person. and wonderfully vice tersa ~
so that age makes no great difference some
times. But it would have been better not
to pot it in book Thus discourses an able
writer on kindred topic:-
"Aldo not know the secret of the ari
Of growing old gracefully. It is an art
which middle life works at and perfects.
The secret'lies back there. Serene and walt
ing, and beloved age is the result of honora-
ble and virtuous middle life and age, queru-
lous, exacting bnrdensome to itself and
others, is the product Of selfish, frivolous
middle life. 1t is perhaps not without some
shade of sadness that one comes to rank
himself in middle life. Slowly it dawns
upon relnetently he admits it. II is
no sense of growing old that teaches him,
no tagging Of the powers Of the spirits,
not even the taunt of that opprobrious
epi:het nowadays fiippantly flung AT mid-'
die life-for ihe .fogg' is not the old, but
the middle-aged man; but one finds that,
with esfuller flesh, and firmer muscle, aud
stronger tread, and truer poise Of his facul-
ties-while yet hissympathies are all young
and fresh, while yet he waits to follow where
the older and wiser lead-the world waits
and looks 10 him pushes him forward where
he hesitates, until he discovers That, no
longer looked upon as young, hsmnst take
his place in the toiling and exposed van,
and hew the way in which other steps shall
tread

SPEECH OF THE HON. M. L. poNHam


The following is the concluding portion
OF the able and patriotic Speech of our es.
teemed Representative, delivered in the
House Of Representatives, Dec. 16, 1859,
on the Election Of Speaker.
Gentlemen from the North talk of for
cling us back into the Union; and the hon
orable member from Pennsy lvania (Mr.
H'ckman) speaks of the numerical power
OF the North being sufficient 10 compel US
to remain in the Union. SIR, whenever
force is found necessary or expedient, the
Union no longer exists and as TO disunion
upon the election of BLACK Republican, I
can speak for no one but myself and those
have here the honor to represent, and I
say, without hesitation, that upon the elec.
tion of Mr.. Seward, or any other man who
indorses and proclaims the doctrines held
by him and his party-call him by what
name you please-I am in favor of an i'm
mediate dissolution of the Union. And sir
l think | speak tie sentiments of my own
constituents, and the State of South Caro-
lima, when I say so.
The honorable member from Tennessee
seems to place the extremists of the South,
and the extremists Of the North. as he calls
them, in the same category, and censures
them alike for the introduction of.this sIa-
very discussion. ask if he does not antic.
apate rebuke from his own people for the
Hnjustice that he does to the Representatives
of the soath7 Does be suppose that the
people Of the South Withhold Us responsible
