Speaker Of the previous House.
In the general caucus there were only
two names mentioned for the speakership
of this branch of the Legislature, that OF
DR.. Hugh Martin, of Sussex and Genl. IIol-
comb, OF New Castle. There was really not
what might be called a contest. New Castle
cast its vote as pledged in private caucus to
the candidate then named, and the two
lower counties went solidly for Dr.. Martin.
Kent received the ClerkShip OF this body
and to New Castle was given the Sergeant
at Arms. c. II. b. Day, of Dover, RECEIVING
the first named position, and w. III. Crow.
of New Castle City, receiving the second.
Thus the offices in this branch We're dis
trihuttd evenly with the three counties.
The greatest fight WAS in the Senate over
the SpeakerShip. There We're four candi-
dates: II. B. FIddPman, of North Milford :;
John ". Causey, South Milford j. Turpp;
Moore. Laurel and James II. Ray of New
Castle county. The contest over this posi-
ton was we'll fought, requiring eighteen
ballots to settle it, and then the honors fell
upon the head of one who was the least
prominently mentioned for it, }. Turpen

course gave its vote for the candidate from
that county, but the feeling seemed to bp
among the lower counties that New Castle
should have as little of the official h"nor>
and patronage as possible, and not until
the New Castle delegation had exhibited Il
| little spirit of temper, did it seem as though

After day of hustle and excitement, in
which there was considerable electioneering
for the four Offices at the disposal Of the
present legislature, both Houses went into
general caucus last evening at nine o'clock.
For the four Offices at the disposal of the
body there were over sixty applicants, each
county Of the State being about equally
represented in seekers after position. II
is stated by those who have attended ses-
sions of the Legislature for the last twenty
years that the support Of members was
never before so much demanded by Office
seekers. They literally oyerran the lobbies
Of the State Capital, and button holed the
members as they passed in, not with per-
saasive entreaties but with almost impera-
tive instructions, each giving his great SER
vices 10 party as reason why he should
be specially supported.

having learned that there was a strong
