What Mr.. Blackburn Said.

WASHINGTON, March lS.-Mr. Black
burn moved to make Randalls nomina-
ton unanimous, and said: "Mr. Chair
man, il is not in my power TO express TO
the gentlemen who supported me in
this contest those sentiments in which
hold this evidence OF their friendship.
l will in candor say | had hoped that it
might be the pleasure of this House to
have imposed the duties and response
bilities Of the SpeakerShip upon one
from the section and people with
whom am identified; for felt assured
that, had such been done, the
result would have proved 10 the people
OF this country that the South might
safely be charged with the formation of
these Committees, and TO shape the leg
islatiOn Of the land. Had j been St.
lected for this service, it would have
been my duty, as il certainly would
have been my pleasure, 10 WELD the
great powers that pertain TO this station
in such a way as To put all sections and
factions behind me, and to promote the
general interests Of common country
in which citizens all hold equal rights,
and 10 which each citizen should tender
a common allegiance. / would have
endeayOred To prove 10 those generous
friends from the North who stood by me
in this contest, that their confidence was
not misplaced; for | should earnestly
have endeavUred to bury the melancholy
memories of the terrible past in those
trenches where the mOldering remains
OF those who gave their lives to those
struggles to-day are resting. | am a
party mani am a paTtiSan-nOt for
the sake of party, but because | honest
ly and earnestly believe the best inter
ests OF my country are 10 be subserved
by the triumph Of my party's principles.
l have but this To say: The edict OF
the caucus is to me final and
conclusive; and il there he any
among the fifty-seyen gentlemen whose
partial friendship has given me their
votes that hesitate or doubt To- give him
their votes, now appeal 10 them To
make the verdict Of this caucus effective
when tO-mOrrow's roll is called. / move

of office was administered to the
Speaker by Mr.. Kelly, of Pennsylvania,
after which the oath to the members was
administered by the Speaker in groups
OF States.
The Clerk gave Hull, Democrat, OF

son claiming to have been elected from
the State at large, the State being only
entitled to three members.
