but objected to it entirely. Judge Kenny stated
that IT was the opinion of the officers that a inrv

Sheriff Campbell here made a statement that he
was convinced that jury could not be obtained
In this county, and therefore took the necessary

times although little known as such, can hardly
be ver-estimated in its importance upon the well
being Of our widely scattered communities The
population Of the American States is in many sec.

available to them. Vast numbers of our people
are obliged to employ in sickness, such medical
relief as they can hear Of from each other, or in
deed any they can get from any quarter. Hence
arises the great consumption Of patent medicines
among us, greater by far than In any of the old

THE FIRST MAN BEHEApED under the new regime
around the House Hall was Mr. Charles Cone
the Clerks principal messenger. He was Presi-
dent Pierce's confidential messenger during the
whole Of that gentleman's administration. and
was appointed to his late place upon the urgent
personal solicitation Of. President Pierce himself.
The ink with which the record Of Mr.. Forneys
election was written was hardly dry before he
struck of Cones official head There he rested. i'm
his labor for the time being; having made but one
other removal since. Col. Carter, the chief clerk
Of the office, resigned, and therefore was not
removed.
No CHANGES So FAR-Neither the new Door.
keeper nor the new Postmaster Of the House have
so far changed any of their subordinates Thew
probably delay welding the axe for day or two.
until they can so arrange the 'vctms" to strike
of every head at single blow. Poor consolation.
indeed, for those about to bleed though perhaps
poorer 70, the much greater multitude who
must fail to obtain places under those officers:
the number of applicants being perhaps forty for
every place they have to bestow.
THE House CoMMITTEEs.-It is understood that
Speaker Pennington is arranging the Standing
committees of the House under the supervisory
advice of two three Republican party leaders
Mr.. Sherman at their head. Various opposition
members are doing their best to secure committee
places to suit each his own fancy or ambition.
They will find their labor thrown away, unless
their hopes meet the sanction of the COMMITTEES re-
ferred to above.
The BALTIMORE PATRIOT.-It is understood
that Mr.. French 5. Evans. one of the publishers
of the Baltimore Patriot, is to be appointed to
the principal clerkship under the Sergeant at
Arms of the House, in consequence of the ardent
Republican partyism of late characterzin, that
journal. So the world ways.
DErACHED.-Lieut Robert nj. McArann, and
Midshipman w. H Farquhar, have been detached
from the prize brig "Delcia," at Charleston, s
G., and are awaiting orders. This brig, it will
be recollected, was captured by the United States
sloop-of-war Constellation on the coast of Africa
| and placed in charge of these two officers
APPOINTMENT OF VICE CONsUL.-Dr. David
Porter Heap, Of Washington city, d c., son of the
late DR.. s. d. Heap, who was for many years T.
s. Consul for the Regency of Tunis, Barbary has
been appointed British Vice Consul for the Port
of Pensacola.
TO BE REMOvED.-We have reason to believe
that the new House Clerk designs removing eveIy
mothers son now in office under him, except MT
Barclay. the Journal Clerk, and Mr. Buck the
File-room Clerk.
The NAVY IN CONGREss.-The bill lately re-
ported in the Senate by MIR. Mallory to increase
