whom was born and have passed my life.
Anu u is eAcceuipsy Sratiiyins that porton
lately of the Army of the Potomoc, but now
serving with the great Army of the West, have
borne so conspicuous part in the late brilliant
triumphs in Georgia. Honor to the soldier

to him only less than to him who braves for
the common good the storms Of heaven and the
storms of battle.

OFFlCERs OF THE HOUSE.

There is a sharp but friendly conflict goiug
on in the Republican ranks for the several
offices of the House of Representatives. The
candidates for Clerkship seem to be reduced
down, by combination of circumstances, to
two persons, both OF whom come from New
England-Mcssrs. Bufflnton and Fessenden.
Sergeant-at-Arms,D Doorkeeper, superintend
ent of Folding Room, &C., have eight or ten
candidates each-all sanguine. The House
should select some hgh-toned, intelligent
honest gentleman, without reference ts locality
who has made no promises and consequently
can break none.
