It. Keeiio's brother is said to have received
diiputi-hrs from him with order to sell, and
did sell 2,000,000 bnnhels, aud other dealers
more than as much. It is said tbo dispatch
from Now York was forged, that the brother

and received another forged dispatch saying
it was, S me persons think the wholo affair
was put up bv Ketnc.

tlii i.i-r-H sbt to MnUh 1 JLfgUtuer the
fullnning dispatch :" Keene will pay ten
tlion und dollars for the detection of the
pin ty who feint the order sigued ' Keene' to
sell wheat. Mil thinks it regular conspir
acy, and that several people are engaged to
break grain and proviaiou markets."
It is stated that Kcoue scut to the same
firm im order to buy one hundred thousand
bushels of wheat. It is a generally aoCcptod
opinion on 'change that Keene has neither
sufl'ered by tho whole transaction nor been
victimized, and that if the bogns dispatch
was actually sent, ho will more thau recover
the loss by the uatural reaction against the
heavy fall of yesterday.
CntCAUO, March 9. Archie Fisher made a

Wasmisoton, March 8. The Natioual
Capitol is excited over tho organization uf
the next Uonse, and the canvass for the
Speakership is the absorbiug topic. Ran
dall is again a candidate ud his friends
claim that he has 90 votes and is sure of the
cations nomination. That i3 considered a
over estimate, besides vhicb, it is possible
a Diuiocratia caucus nomination may sot
coutrol tho organisation, tho Democratic
majority over Republicans aud Greeubaokers
being only 5, so absence, illness or dofevtion
of a few may make combination of Urctn
backers and Republicans possible
Tho contest is likely to narrow down be
tween Itaudall nnd Blackburn of Kentucky.
Tho bitter bus many personal friends and
will have the support of all who think Ran
dall has mistreated them or fulled to give
them duo consideration. Also the friends of
the Tea. l'aciflo Bill, and such other
schemes, aid tootie who oppose Tilden's
nomination in 18S0, will probably oppose
Randall. Ilia strength is based ou his
ability nud bis clear record, without taint of
corruption. He has made an excellent
Speaker nnd is an accomplished parliamen
tarian; is temperate, obliging nud vety dis
creet. !
Blackburn is nu able parliamentarian and
his integrity is unquestioned. He is youug
aud poaaettses uiuny attractive traits of
claructer. At times he gives way to temper,
but generally ha wonderful control over a
a high strung and impetuous '.coipcr. Mor
rison of Illiuois, House of Tennessee, Mo
Muhon of Ohio, Goods of Yirgluia, and
Cox of Now York, ore in the back ground,
but only ns compromise candidates.
The content for clerks. up of the House
will bo between Adams, present clerk and
ex-Coiigi'cssuinn Caldwell, of Alabama, with
chaucus about oven. Kergcant-at-Arms
Thompson will probably be re-elected. L.
G. AYaHhiugtou, formerly of San Francisco,
Gen. Duncan S. Walker, of Washington,
aud Isaao Eaton, of Kaunas are candidates
for Sergeant-nt-arms of the Senate. Among
those who desire to succeed Mr, Gorhsiu as
Secretary nro ex-Seuator Dennis, of Mary
laud, Col. Watterson, of Kentucky, John 6.
Bird, of Nashvlllo American, A. 0. Buell, of
Washington, Prof. McMahou, of West Vir
ginia, ex-Representative Stengor, of Pennsyl
vania, ex member Wuddoll, of North Caro
lina, and others not yet Darned.
It is thought the Demojrats will promptly
paHs n repeal of the federal election laws and
other obuosions statutes, and the president
will veto tho first measure nnd it will be at
tached to nn appropriation bill, but it is
doubtful if so narrow a Democratic majority
cau proo BttccoBsful. It is probable the
session will last until hot weathor comes.
Thero is a strong determination on the part
of prominent Democrats iu different parts of
the country to defeat Randall. It is possi
ble tiiat some time may be occupied in af
fecting an organization of the House.

The following is Speaker Randall's ad
dress: REriESE.'.'TATivEs: Iu a moment this Con
gress wjll expire. IU acts whether tor weal
or woe, are indelibly inscribed on the pages
of history. In this hall party has been ar
rayed against party, and interest against in
terest in fierco and bitter struggle; but it Id
dre to truth to say that on every aido there
has been honest ainbit'on to win popular es
teem by seeking, each iu bia own way, ac
cording to bis best judgment, tha general
welfare. Whether or not the desired end of
publio good has been successfully attained
is for time to prove; that such has been tho
desired end of both parties cannot justly be
disputed. Genuine concert between all the
States and citizens thereof is tbo corner
stono of our national prosperity. What
prostrates cr elevates one at the expense of
another must ultimately work the injury of
all. Although euch representative has cham
pioned the immediate wishes of lis imme
diate constituency with earnestness and en
orgy, yet during the period ot the existence
of this house there has not been a singio
breach of legislative decorum. Thtt noble
respect born of generous rivalry in common
good cause has softened all asperities. I
feel that more words are inadequate to thank
fully this Houso for its resolution of appro
val of tho manner in which I have discharged
the duties of Speaker, always responsible
and onerous, and often most delicate and
difficult. I have done my best. Long ser
vice here has taught me that hate or veu
geauce has never raised any cause to endur
ing honor, while on the contrary, justice nnd
mutual regard have often given tho weaker
side an easy victory. With recovering busi
ness nnd restored "confidence wo may look
hopefully to an early dawn of a new era ot
increased prosperity and happiness of tho
country. Such is toy fervent prayer. To
each and every member here I tender my
heartfelt acknowledgemrnt for kindly for
bearance extended to mo as presiding officer
of this House, and to say that I shall, ever
giatefnily cherish the honor t which I hive
been tho recipient. Who the wish that you
all may return aafoiy and in health to your
homes, it renins U r mo to deotaro iu ac
