CONGRESSMAN RRED. of Maine, thinks
the bloody shirt will be as effective means
for obtaining the Speakership of the next
House of Representatives as 1t was for OBJ
tanning mis- election as member OF that
body. He, therefore, comes out boldly for
allowing the democratic, that is, the south
ern. members of the House no consideration
in the organization of that body and ia the
establishment Of its rules, and for riding
over them rough shod by the republican
majority of three. OF one thing about this
.uaster there is no doubt, and that is that
regard for the Constitution will afford no
lar TO the execution Of any design there
publicsns may entertain, provided they have
the re- qnsite number of votes to obtain that
