The House met at 12 O'Clock. Prayer by
Rev. Mr.. MINNEGERODE, of the Episcopal
Church. 80
South Carolina Mission Personal Expgana
tions.-Mr. BARBOUR rose to a personal expla-
nation, relative to the affair pending between
the Speaker of the House and Mr.. Seldom, OF
Stafford, when the House adjourned on Sat
urday last. He was authorized to state that
explanations, mutually satisfac tory. had bee II
exchanged between these gentlemen, and all
unkind expressions and feelings had been
withdrawn and removed and the former kind
relations between these gentlemen again re-
stored.
Mr.. DuCKwALL arose to a personal expia-
nation. He came here this morning with a
view to pressing the resolution he had IN ade
on Saturday, for the discharge Of the commit
tee on the South Carolina Mission; but as it
might seem reflection on the Speaker of the
House, he would not do so. 1t seemed to be
the opinion of many gentlemen, that it would
also be construed into refiec tion on the men,
bers OF that committee. He believed when he
offered his resolution merely that no good
would grow out of the committee and he
need hardly say that in Offering il he meant no
reflection on the Speaker or any member
OF the committee While he still retained his
views as TO the expediency OF the committee
he would relinquish his inten ton of pressing
the resolution In difference 10 the opinions Of
