that such is tho exact state of tho case. And if
the representatives sincerely and honestly desire
the defeat of Sherman and the election ot a safo

these facts and circumstances clearly show that
Democratic representatives arc determined either
to elect one of their own number as Speaker, or
failing in that, to compel the election of a Mack
Republican. , They have no idea of aiding in,
or permitting, if they can help it, tho election
of any Southern Opposition member. And the
