How the House Received VallandtS-
hams Speech.


WAaH1sGToS, July II, 1861.
The delivery Of Vallandigham's speech In
the House Of Representatives Vas a curious
sight, md if Mr. Russell waa present, certain
y he can sketch picture which will contrast
strihipg1y with some of those he looked at in
the Southern States. Here was man Intense
y unpopular, delivering set speech against
the Government, every line of which reeked
with sympathy with rebels, every paragraph
Of which contained d gross Misrepresentation
OF fact and Intention, and this too in the very
midst and presence Of gigantic civil war:
Jet not single supporter Of the Government
made the slightest objection to the speech,
and it WAS greeted with a so1itnry hiss. Il
Was very hard to sit and listen to such trea-
soEable stuff, and some Of the members left
The Hall because they could not sit and hear it,
but there Ea. no interruption. Whenever in
the rebel Congress member is permitted to
deliver speech entirely In the interest Of the
United States Government ind bittsr1y against
the rebellion, such men rs Vallandigham can
with prcpriety claim that the right Of free
epee ch exists among the rebels, mud not until
then. It is believed here that the speech was
made BY the suggestion Of Jefferson Davis
and friends as piece Of diplomacy to afect,
If possible, foreign governments.
The vote upon the loan bill, which immedi-
ately followed the speech alluded to, was a
hot rebuke to Va1landigham, for among all
the mtmebrs from the Free States, he and
Ben Wood were alone in voting against the
bill, and their three associates from Slave
States are openly aVowed secesionists. Wood
and ValIandigham will henceforth epiov the
uotoriety Of being the only two disloYal aud
unpatliotic men from the North.

The steamer Arrow left our harbor on Thurs
day night, by order OF General Banks, having
on board company Of the Massachusetts VOL
unteets stationed at Fort McHenry, for the
purpose Of looking after the piratical schooner
Georgians, which vessel, it will be recouected,
was reported as having been seen cruising in
the PaWtuxet. The Arrow proceeded to Ches~
ter river, where she met the steamer Chester
on her return to Baltimore, and transferred
portion Of the military to her. They observed
theschooner aground at place cal1edEgg Neck

On board Of fer, it was found that she had
been stripped Of every movable article. A
guard was placed on board, and the Arrow
turned her head to the city, where she arrived
about seyen o'clock last night, having landed
the frof ps at Fort McHenry.
The steamer Pioneer arrived at her wharf
last evening from Cambridge, having landed
at the Fort four prisoners, who are charged
st. Nicholas. These men, 1t appears, arrived
at Cambridge on Thursday night ii large
boat, having two larga boxes filed with car
bines, Colts EeVolye1a, cutlasses, sabre bayo
nets, cartridge boxes, &C. The authorities at
Cambridge arrested them as soon as they
landed, and placed them In charge OF Lieut..
Coburn, Of the Dorchester Home Guard, who
delf!ered them into the custody Of General
Banks
Their names are Alexandcr, Lyon, Cusick,
and Murpby-tWo Of whom are Baltimoreaus

were only suboriinates to the others.
just as the Pioneer was leaving her wharf
at Cambridge, man on shore, named Burke,
proposed three cheers for JEFF Davis. This
was the signal for general fight, in which
pistols and knives we're used with considera-
bic effect, as several persons were seen to fall
Gov. Hicks vas upon the wharf at the time,
and lnterposed to stop the fight. It Ia not
known who were injured, as the steamer did
not wait, but started off on her trip to Balti-
more-the fight still going on.
