It, would afford far greater pleasure were it ac companied by the slightest assurance that could bring to the discharge of the arduous and delicate duties (always difficult, but now envi roned with unusual difficulties) any capacity commensurate with their responsibility and dig-nitv- " ''" " ! I can only say that I shall bear myself, so far as I sra able, with . fidelity to the interests and institutions of the country and government, and with impartiality so far as regards tha rights of members or this House. .

I-am, therefore, as a man must be m such a presence, a suppliant for your indul gence and assistance, and 1 again return my thanks for the honor which you have conferred on me At the conclusion of the addresw, there was deafening and lonz continued applause. ' Mr. Giddings (the oldest member of the House) administered by request of the Clerk, the oath of office to the Speaker. .

Mr. Banks, when his friends rushed forward to con gratulate him on his geod fortune. f ,' Mr. A. K, Marshall, of Kentucky, when his name was called, asked the consent of the House to submit a few remarks, and no objection being made, 1 :--' ' ; Mr. M. remarked that 'ha had in his eye a member of the House whose "acquaintance he formed on his way to this city, f They travelled together in tlie railroad cars and became acquain ted on the route, in the course of this protrac ted contest for the Speakership, and in view of the action taken ' by the House, especially that taken by the little band with which be had been acting, he had been often reminded of a conver sation between himself, and that gentleman on the route hither. 1 ha gentleman told me (said Mr. M.) that I was young as a politician, and that when I arrived in ashington I Would find that the American party had no existence at all ; that at the rorth it was merged in another -and very different sort of feeling, 'and that the few who . . : . . a .L T . migoi oe nere irom me ouuw, uuanieu oy any Northern help at all, would not be able to make the least stand as a party upon tha floor of Con n-ess. I think rnv friend woo HI take back that declaration now i" and I think can say that we have not only stood her aa a distinct and sens rate party, but that wf bare fbaghta good fight; Gentlemen, my friends, we hava not yet fin ished our. course. .. The battle in which we have been hitherto engaged has been a party fight. V a hava been coutendmg for party existence and for party supremacy: we have been .contending with our Democratic- friends to force from, them an acknowledgment upon their part' that, they did us wrong in -the idea which they held ' out in tha resolution adopted in their caucus and in the declaration, which they made, in that resolutions We have fought a good fight for our party, and hava done more than fight : we have conquered. Is there standing out now upon, this floor, as a candidate for election to the speakership, any nominee of tha Democratic party. fT Is there any Democratic platform now presented upon this uuur wuitu implies iiiuigoity ur ououcn ui tuv members of the American'-party t I have -lost sight of them altogether. ,i So far then, we have lpughtagood fight . i , But I say to my friends, we nave yet a duty to perform. ' Having 'done all that, party . men could require having done all it was 'our duty to do as party men : having, as l.believet proved ourselves equal to the cantest and victorious over the mighty, numbers, that,- aasaiIad:UB,.f we hav now a duty to pertorm to our country. And let us ask ourselves what is that duty? ' Look at tha state and condition of this Honse at this mo- ment. See, I appeal to those who: have been acting with me thus far, and whose conduct, whose fearless defence of .their : principles have commended them not only to their friends abroad, but even to their enemies see what it U now our duty to do. Our .chieftain T. left him- with as much reluctance as ever Highlander left his chieftain has fallen, .but with the love of his friends and the admiration of his enemies. Great applause in the galleries J What is now ray duty 2 : According to, the view I ; take of it, there is now presented to this House this ques tion : Shall there be a sectional organization 7 Shall there be an organization of such a charac ter as will perhaps, whether it onght to do so or not, inflame a portion of the people of this coun try and bring about an agitation -which la to be deplored, or shall we for a time five np our par ticular party organization and unite with those who agree with us upon the great and paramount question of the day? x ). V u 1 make these remarks that I may be under stood here and at home. I occupy a very pecu liar position. I have been a Democrat for years. I represent a district which is largely, Whig, and owe to Whig votes my position upon this floor. T X ' A 1 ' . 1 T i reprcwni ia American constituency aiso. i have not abandoned the principlea of the Ameri can party, and in voting now .for a Democrat, I shall do so under the firm conviction that when I reach home my constituency will excuse ine on the ground of the absolute. necessity of ao cast ing my vote that I may save the whole country. Having fully performed my duty to party, my constituents demand of me that I should dis charge that duty which I owe to my country., Upon the motion of Mr. Cuxgvak that the House confirm the election of Banks, Mr. Pain it, of North Carolina,' remarked that ha desired, when his name was called, upon the last vote for Speaker, to give the reasons why he should no longer vote with his party aa a party man, but was willing, when the. contest was nar rowed down between two gentlemen, to give his vote for the gentleman from South Carolina. He . loved this Union; it waa dearer, to. him than any parties or party considerations ; and there were no circumstances which had occurred or could that would ever induce him to vote for a, man, as Speaker, of the H.qusa or for any high re? sponsible political station under this government, who had declared himself in favor of a dissolu-i tion of the Union. Maintaining these principles, ha could not rota to confirm the election of the gentleman from Massachusetts,- As would be well remembered, when that gentleman ; was charged with having made a speech in the State oi Aiaine in wmcn ne ueciarea inai ne was wn ling "to let the Union, slide," tha gentleman un dertook to extfain what he meant by it, remark ing that if the General government should foster any one institution at the expense of another, be would consider the Union' no longer desirable, and would be willing "to let it slide.", Had the uenerai uoverflpRenf ffdf undertaken to pursue such a course ? No exigency, then, for a disso lution of the Union had ever arisen. -There must have been : some other reason for this speech. : ne would state to the House that the distinguish ed gentleman from Massachusetts, -net longer than eighteen .months ftgvn, this city, declared to a gentleman who was in favor of a dissolution of the Union, that he himself was an. advocate of disunion, and desired his cooperation unt ' The guiding star of Mr. P.V life had been h'is devo tion to the Union, and he.Vould never vote to place any man in the Speakers chair or in any other responsible political station who maintain ed such a sentiment as tha one to which be had alluded.: ' . v t ; . .' , ; ; JbTFrom Hay tl we have additional particulars eoncerning the defeat of Soulouque by . the Dch mimcans. ; the latter, were armed, with Mime rifles," which accounts for the great slaughtera- morujthe Uaytieqa.. iolqque bad tuyhed nrp and was concentrating His forces for another , e$- petuuoB. . xne iKtmrntcans, nqwever, were rujiy prepared to repel" their enemy.

Hia unexcep tionable moral character, and his example for good behavior and probity and .worth, will long be remembered in connection with his acquaintance by a large circle of sincere and devoted friends.' Many of his classmates; and college companions will read with sadness and sorrow the intelli gence of his deaths and heave a sigh-over the painful and shuddering reminiscence of the bright morning of. their youthfuVneas i and .bloom. ' He graduated with distinction and honor at Wake Forest in 1853, and to the close af his fife-evinced a fondness for reading and a taste for science arid literature peculiar to well-disciplined and richly cultivated minds. - We deeply regret tlie loss of so estimable and worthy a citizen from our midst as, in such a dispensation of Providence, a kind father,' an af fectionate mother, and several brothers and sis ters are. left to mourn over tlie premature demise of one hallowed and endeared to their memories, by a thousand fond and j pleasing associations. Green, then, be the embowering shades that can opy Jiis repose !. and soft the foot prints that are left to remind the j passing : wanderer that the (Tram inf VVi v d-xA LrA swim nmxw I Ivn IXfoalrom 1W hearts both' fond arid true! and flowers of sweet and perennial bloom spring up lightly above hi grave -and shed perfume upon the zephyr-wind that lingers around so sacred a spot in accents of peace and whispers of -love ! j May - no ' rude breath disturb his slumbering, but the brooding genius of calm tranquility le : his to all eternity.
