was all right then. But for the Demo

they propose to do, is Revolutionary"
now, say the Republicans. If it be revo-
luton, it is revolution wholly within the

little show Of consistency or honesty that
they now object. Their objections, how

Congress win meet in extra session next
Tuesday, the 18th inst Ever since the
adjournment Of the last Congress, rumors
have been rife about the organization Of
the House. These are purely sensational,
and manufactured to keep up political ex-
element. We. have no idea that the
Democrats will be so short-sighted and
impolitic as to break ranks aud cndangcr
the party and legislation, on account Of
the Speakership. The rumors that GER
tain members viii not support Mr.. Ran
dali, should he be chosen as the caucus
nominee for that position, are too absurd
to be entertained for moment. Any
member who would pursue such course,
in such crisis as now presents itself to
the party, would be denounced throughout
the country and be asked to resign by
his constituency.
