THE SPEAKER AND CLERK OF THE New House
OF RErREsENTATIvEs-In about one month the
new Congress meets at Washington, in extra.
ordinary session. For this Congress President
Lincoln is already preparing his message, and
the business and organization of the House are
in course Of arrangement. Under the circum-
stances which attend this special session, the
Speaker and Clerk of the House should, with
propriety, be selected from the Eastern and
Western States; and if this arrangement be
made, we suggest for Speaker the Hon. Frank
Z. Blair, Of Missouri, and for Clerk the Hon.
John B. Haskin, Of New York,
The Hon VIM. A. Pennington, of New jersey,
the Speaker of the last House, was most
genial and amable gentleman, but was hard

Is low doubtless engaged in making uniforms
'or the army. Cbevalier Forney, we under
stand, has had surfeit of the good things of
the Oit1ksbip, and intends retiring, with all the
nonors, TO devote himself entirely to his paper
or, as rumor states, to take military com
mand, BIKE his friend Brigadier General Sickles.
1t Is hardly necessary for us to say how cor.
daily we endorse this resolution, and wish the
Chevalier more success in his new station than
he has before achieved. Neither the Sneaker
nor Clerk of the last House is therefore eI;-
gibie for re collection, and the Offices are open
Tor new nominations.
We suggest Messrs. Blair and Haskin for
Speaker and Clerk because we think they ara
in every way fitted for the stations, and that
they will be generally acceptable In his ca.
reer In Congress, and in hi. connection with
recent affairs in Missouri, Mr.. Blair has dis.
played just those qualities which will be re-.
quired, In this crisis, of the new Speaker. He
has, we think, energy, sagacity, a thorough
knowledge of his duties, and great efficiency in
their performance. Mr.. Haskin has been in
Congress for the last two years, and has dis.
played uncommon energy, business capacity
and practical talent. He has every quality re.
quisite to fill the Clerkship most worthily.

THE CONFEDERATE STATES Let all our readers
remember that from and after this day the
United States mail service is suspended in all
the Confederate revolted States excepting
those portions of Eastern Virginia occupied by
United States troops, and the loyal Western
section Of Virginia, the good people of which
have refused to paas into the service of Moloch,
and are as steadtast to the Union as the people
of New York. The Confederate States have
adopted an independent mail system five and

stand it, no letter to party liz Confederate

engaged co,CmDs with immediate reinforce
ments If necessary. But there is one measure
which we conceive most important to be at
tended to. In the event Of great battle a
large amount of surgical aid viii be
required for our troops. The regiments gone
forward, most of them numbering thousand
men or more, have only two surgeons attached
to- each, medical force wholly inadequate to
the duty demanded in the field and the hospi-
tai. The Medical Aid Association should at
once organize body Of minute men, selected,
if possible, from its most skilful surgeons,
ready to hasten to the scene of action the mo-
ment the telegraph brings the news of battle,
so that our wounded soldiers may be properly
cared for. This is not the least important duty
of those left behind and we hope that our
patriotic physicians will not fail to attend to it.
