which appeared to bo satisfactory for hi

Mr. Cdinnheli, of Ohio, appealed to the
honor of gentlemen to cany the plurality
rusolutiou into f(R.ct, and end thisdUgmee
ful content.
Mr. Cobb, (dein.) of (leorjjia, regarded
Mr. Il:ink as virtually elected by a nnijor
it j of tlio llnuso under the plurality rule.
Mr. Aiken asked to bo allowed to conduct
Mr. Hunks a Speaker to tlio chair. (Ap
plauso.) Mr. Smith, of Ala., highly appreciated
Mr. Aiken' request' If granted, lie thought
it would heat divisions, and pour oil on
troubled waters. When grown up men
make n child's bargain, they ought to stick
to it (Laughter.)
After further debate, Mr. Cliugmau,
(dein.) of N. C, oflorod a resolution declar
ing that by reason of the adoption nf the
plurality rule and the vote taken under it,
Mr. Hank hud been duly chosen Speaker,
and is hereby do declared.
This passed by yeas, 130 ; nays, 30.

Actors, to carry out tlio order of the (louse
by voting for the above resolution.
Mr. Dunk was, by request of the Clerk,
conducted to tlio chair by Mr. Aiken, Ful
ler of Penn., and Campbell of Ohio.

I can only say I shall bear myself, so far as
applicable, with fidelity to the interests and
institutions of the country Bnd iho govern
ment, and with impartiality so far us re
gards the rights of the members ol this
House. I have no persoual objects to ac

the maintninance of the well established
principles of our government, in their origi
nal American signification iu developing
that portion of the continent we occupy, so
fur as we may do so within tlio power con

SWEARING IN THE MEMBERS, ETC.
The Speaker administered ihe oath to
Mipport the constitution of the United
States to the members the representatives
of each State advancing as their names were
called for that purpose.
The delegates from the Territories were
likewise sworn.
When the name of Mr. Wn field was
-H.l Mr. r.row. .republican) of Fa., said,
in deference to the wishes of his friends he
would not object to his being sworn, tie
thought, however, that circumstances would
warrant the withholding the oath. He
hoped to be heard some other time on the
question.
Mr. Campbell, (rep.) of Ohio, said that
a constituent of his, (a Kentuckian by birth),
had been Jiabolically murdered in the most
cowardly manner, having been shot in the
back, as he was credibly informed, by an
officer under the pay of the general govern
ment in Kansas. As objecting to the ad
ministration of the oatb to Mr. hit field
would only tend to greater confusion after
their excited struggle, he would not insist
. it
.upon ifc- , . . . f.
On motion of. Mr. Washburn, (rep.) or
Me., a committee was appointed to wait on
the Senate and inform them that a quorum
of the House had assembled, elected Mr.

reviewed tho history and geographicul re
lations of that territory at ilie mouth of the
river Sun Juan, known as the Mixqnito ter
ritory, and conjured the S-nat to hold

to insist that Ureal Britain shall eras to

Wo would not, he said, recede without na
