THE NEW SPEAKER.

Speaker Carlisle, in his brief
speech upon assuming the Chair of
the House of Representatives on
Monday, talked very much like
statesman who understood the situS
alton, knew his duties and was de-
termined to perform them. There
seemed to be nothing of the dem
agogue, and none Of the politician
III the short address expressive of
his thanks for the honor conferred,
his appreciation of the important
position into which he had been
elevated, and outlining or indicat-
ing a policy for the House. 1t is
predicted for Mr.. Carlisle that he
will make an enviable record as
Speaker, and the little fear that ex-
lists over the fact that be is
southerner will soon be dispelled by
the broad-minded patriotism by
which he will be governed. He is not
a southern brigadier," and we be-
lieve was not even private in the
late war, his profession being that of
the law instead of that Of arms.
His life has been that of a pure and
upright man, original and progress
sive in his ideas, but not radical or
extreme in his modes. His reputa>
ton in Congress is that of a hard
working, industrious member, de-
voted to the interests of the people
and thoroughly in harmony with
the principles of the Democratic
party. He is reformer, as indicated
in his address on Monday, though
his reform ideas do not 60 to the e1-
tent # a mania, as with some whose
craze to cure evil leads them into |
the bringing of others. Speaker
Carlisle has a narrow plank to |
walk, but we believe he will not |
stagger or fall.
