Forney has been elected Clerk of the House of Representatives by the votes of all present, who had voted for Speaker Pennington, together with those of Horace F. Clarke and George Briggs, and with the exception of H. Winter Davis, of Maryland. Hoffman, who was elected Sergeant-at-Arms, re- ceived the votes of the Republicans, and about half the American votes. Speaker Pennington has appointed John Sherman, Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means. and Eiihu B. Washburn. Chair- man of the Committe on Commerce. Truly, Pennington shows who placed him in position. and he seems disposed 10 re- ciprocate. A. MT. Lucas has been elect. ed postmaster of the House. A special Washington correspondent of the Cincia- ndfi Enquirer, says: T Gw A
 The action of the Black Republicans in giving the clerk and postmaster of the House to the anti-Lecomptonites, and the sergeant at-arms to the South Americans, is regarded as a movement to concentrate the whole Op- position party of the country upon Bates, of Missouri, for President.

gW- The Fort Smith Times has an
 editorial favoring the nomination of the
 Hon. R. M. T. Hunter, of Virginia, by the Charleston Convention. MT. Hunter
 is one of the ablest statesmen of the day, and he would be most cordially supported by the Democracy, if nominated; but if we are to have Southern leader we n- fnitely prefer Jefferson Davis, the war rior statesman of Mississippi. In point of statesmanship and real ability, he is the peer and equal of any man in the nation. In addition to this he combines more elements of strength than any man who will be prominently before the Con- vention. He possesses more of what the world calls "force of character" than MT. Hunter, and if elected would be less likely to be improperly influenced by his sur- roundings. Although of the State Rights school of politics. yet, he has many friends at the North, and it is said that he will receive in the Charleston Conven- ton, very nearly the unanimous vote of New Englanda We shall take occasion at an early period to indicate more at length the grounds of our preference for Col. Davis.

 ACTIVITY AMONG THE SLAVE CRAFT. A correspondent of the New York Times, writing from the San Jacinto, Mo- vember IA, while lying off the mouth of the Congo river, says: s' saee
 During our run to this place from Mon rovia, we chased and overhauled the brig Gehasser, of Charleston, S. c. Boarding her, she proved to be q very suspicious vessel, and there was iitlleT doubt in the minds of any of us of her beinga slayer; yet, from some cause or 7other, she was allowed to go her way, rejoicing, no doubt, at her lucky escape. The United States ship Portsmouth has made one, capture and sent her home. She met the Fare mier, of New York, in, charge of an Eng fish, Lieutenant, having been captured by a British cruzer. She had full cargo of slaves aboard. The notorious Orion so lately condemned and sent home from this coast-is now in this vicinity, trying to ge, cargo of negroes. Ac- tivily is the order of the, day in the slave trade. Four vessels have latelyieh with full cargoes., alsj Emamgs 9ss gamges

ny MONDAY, the 5tlR DAY GF " MARCH next, will sell at public auction, number of Lots in the town of HICKORY PLAIN, without reserve.
 The town of Hickory Plain is situated in Prairie county, Arkansas, fifteen miles West of Des Are, sixteen miles North East from Brownsville, and fourteen miles East from At lanta. The town of Hickory Plains offers more inducements to purchasers than any in land town in the State; from the fact that the society in and adjacent thereto cannot be excelled in the South West. In point of health, it is only equalled by locations east of the Blue Ridge. Besides, there are other inducements held out to purchasers, such as being in the heart of the best upland portion of Arkansas; and being situated directly on the Stage road leading from Des Arc to Fort Smith, and also, on the road from Des Arc to Little Rock. And last, but not the least, we are building, and will soon have finished, one of the finest Seminary buildings in the State. We design establishing high school of the first character. We also have number of churches in and around Hickory Plain.

 'sThe union of the American people is of importance not only to themselves, but to the world at large. To Englishmen the spread of our language, of our religion, and to certain extent of our laws and manners can never cease to be an object of interest, nor can we desire success to the fanatics who in their wild dream of raising an inferior race, would imperil all that has been accomplished in the World during two centuries of industry and genius"
