A Governor's Testimony. Simmons Liver Regulator has been in use in my family for some time, and I am satisfied it if valuable addition to the medical science. J. GtLU Shorter, Governor of Ala. Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, of Ga., says: Have derived some benefit from the use o' Simmons Liver Regulator, and wish to give it ft further trial. "The only Thing that never fails to Relieve." I have used many remedies for Dys pepsia, Liver Affection and Debility, but never have found anything to benefit me to the extent ' Simmons Liver Regulator has. I sent from Min nesota to Georgia for it, and wonld send further for such a medicine, and would advise all who are sim flarly affected to give it a trial as it seems the only thing that never fails to relieve. P. M. Jannev, Minneapolis, Minn. Dr. T. W. Slason says: From actual x perience in the use of Simmons Liver Regulator in my practice I have been and am satisfied to use and prescribe it as a purgative medicine.

C, THE SPEAKERSHIP CONTEST. Correspond ende Cbarloite (jbserver. ' ' '" 'l , Washixoton Dec. 1. Hon , John G. Carlisle was nominated for Spea' ker tbnigbv ly the Democratic can. ensj on tbe first ballot. . The inci dents of the caucua are meagre. Communication is difficult, for; .'few .congressmen pasi .the, doors and none stand long enough to give more tban fragmentary particulars. ' Jii 'ge Geddes. of Ohio, presided 'y general agreement. - Although the cancup organized. -before 8 o'clock, the result was not.Hnnouriced until n quurtr past nine. The vote stood 106 for Carlisle, 52 for Randall and 30 for Cox. i" Ail through the thronged cori-idors the announcement had been awaited feverishly though decorous ly. ' 'lhe first news was doubled, for L it seemedtao much of a good thing to all except the best Carlisle figure makers. Representative Rol'insoh brought it out. Kvon then the Car lisle people in the lobby refused to hurrahs In a few moments, when tbe news had been confirmed a shout was raised, and then, when Randall and Cox passed out to invite Carlisle into tiie caucus, all was breathless for a moment s Th iron-hearted loader of the Democracy went on his mission without a sign of the pain of defeat, but his eye .was ablaze with the light of courage. As the tri -j of candidates, attended by Cobb, of Indiana, return ed to the hall of aepresenta lives, an other demonstration took place, and shouts and clapping of hands re sounded. It is understood that there has perfect harmony -and the bst of order. mr. caklisle's speech. Mr. Carlisle was escorted to the Speaker's desk by Mr. Randall and Mr. Cox, and accepting the nomina tion, spoke' as follows : "Mr. Chair man and gentlemen of the caucus : Your'coniip.ittee has just notified me - of my unabinious nomination for the .office of sptssker of the house of rep resenti lives' for the forty ejghth con res, and I am here to thank you very briefly and very earnestly for the confidence you have reposed in me. If this had been a mere person al contest between me and either of the three distinguished gentlemen whose names have been mentioned in connection with this nomination, I should have had but little hope of sue cess. They are all gentlemen of great ability, long experience and undoubt ed integrity, and I assure them and their friends that this contest closes, so far as I am concerned, without the slightest change in the friendly per sonal relations which have ht rtofore existed between us Gentlemen,,!, trust that you may never have reas. on to regrtt your action this evtuing, and that hen the labors of the for ty eighth congtess are closed, you may l e able to congratulate your selves th&t no material interest of your party or your lountry has been injuriously affected by my ad ninistration of the office lor which you have h".min:ited m';. In fact I may go a step further and vvuture to express" the confident hope tat ev ery substantial ;nitrest wi 1 be ad vanced and promoted by the united efforts of the presiding officer and the democratic majority on the floor Such a result will insure victory in the great contest' yet to come and guarantee a long line of democratic executives with ua horiest economi cal and constitttt onal administration of our public affairs. But yoia have "yet much other labor to perform, and again thanking you for what you have already done. I shall say no more." :'-'" ;:: . ... . , kANDAt-L-'s SPEECH. "The majority of the Democratic Representatives of the forty eighth congress eave seen fit. to designate the distinguished gentleman from Ky. for exaltation V to the position of Speaker. His administration sKall have my firm, fixed and , honorable support. To my friends, who may be disappointed at this result, I ten der my gratitude for their support, which was actuated by a noble disin terested friendship, based, j on the highest consider it ion of duty, as they believed, both to their partv and to their country., ,1, bow to thivdecision ; of the majority of mv colleaguts. The duty impo;ed jupon iug "hyfmy! constituents wUl ie pecfoi-med with earnest zjeul fur, thei' in tl rest, for the triumph, of ciyrirjy hnd thefeHt j t)rosperity;af-iuv,ountf . If, iu titer future, there be any service I can render that will tend to these ends it will be performed with a cheerf ulness that ' no ( other, citizen can exc6l.v : Applause. J'.. j . ,. ' . . Mr. Cox. then spoke as follows: cox s. SPEECH. "I tender my acknowledgements to the gentlemen who have given me their, confidence, and especially to the sixteen gentlemen from New Yorkj andT have, to say ' that I am relieved rom the 'l-esponsibilfty which possi bly1 might have ' fallen upon my frail shoulders. '"I sympathise with the .distinguished, gentleman from. Ken tucky who is to bear the burdens of the great office of speaker. In so far as I can assist him in any way, he will find as ready a coajutor as the distinguished gentleman from Penn sylvania The future of our party depends largely upon its action on fiscal questions. They connect themselves with the liberties of life, with tr.-de, with commerce, the mag nanimrties of public life &nd with the grandeur of the public. While thanking those who have sustained me during this long seige, I confess to reeling somewhat wearied of being on my feet during the lst two weeks. '84 depends upon the wisdom with which we exercise the duties of this congress. Without a wise fore cast and discreet horoscope we will be in the future as we have been in the past derelict, b59ten. doubly discontented but I hope for better things, and shall endeavor in my humble way to do something towards framing legislation on a higher and purer tone. Remember that '84 depends upon our wisdom and dis1 ere tion." Applause. A X A 11 TJL EMS If A P. Pecks San.

TIIKOPEXIXG OS CO ft' GR ESS. Washinotox, D. C., Dec, 3. There was nothing iu tha ; circumstances attending - the , opening of the 48th Congress of an unusual .character, yet from the vast crowds that fought and struggled to obtain admission to the galleries it might have been sup . posed that a renewal of some of the exciting scenes of the past was antici patecb The , proceedings in both' .Houses were of the ordinary routine character entirely. . Just,.beforo the House was called to order a moment' ry commotion was caused , in conse; quence of the antics of'Col." Mau rice Pinchover, who has been seen frequently in the halls of Congress and the executive departments for seversi years, and always with a grievance. His favorite illusion is that Mr. Randall has somehow rob bed him of forty million dollars, and he is constantly applying for a war--rant for the arrest of that gentleman. He some months ine handed in to the clerk of the House his creden tials as u member of congress at large from the city of Baltimore, and he took a seat in a prominent position, expecting the clerk to call his name as member-elect. He was requested to vacate the seat by one of the offi cers under the doorkeeper and re fused to do so. The attempt was then made to eject him gently and quietly, but he resisted violently and screamed like a maniac, his coat coming off in the struggle. Finally he permitted himself to be led out at the pursuasion of Mr. Blackburn, It is a reproach to the authorities that this poor creature is not token care or. He is permitted to run at large because he is said to be harmless, but the general impression is that someday his resentment of his fani cied wrongs will carry him beyond safe bounds. The most prominent objects of inteiest on the floor were Messrs. Randall, Carlisle and Keifer. Mr. Mr? Randall ; came in some twenty jninutes before hobn and walked quietly to his old(. seat in . the last House. He had a wearied appear ance, and frequently rubbed his bis head and passed Lis head over Lis eyes. It will be some time before he recovers from his bitter disap pointment. He did not seem dis posed to engage in conversation, and replied briefly to what remarks were addressed to him. Mr. Keifer sat alone in his glory. Not a single member on the Republican side came near him, and in OTder to obtain any notice be found it necessary to lean over and tap his Republican col leagues on the shoulder as they pasn ed by him. It seems that at the last moment the large proportion opposed to him had reluctantly decided to support him for the complimentary nomination for Speaker because they did not feel justified in setting such a precedent as bolting the caucus decision, Hut they did not appear to want to go near him. Mr. Carlisle entered the hall only a very few minutes before the house was called to order, and when the v time arrived to ballot for Speaker he left and went to the Speaker's room. The calling of the roll of members and the balloting for Speaker occu pied considerable time, and was nec essarily monotonous. On the Re publican 6ide Mr. Kasson, of Iowa, and Gcv.-elect Robinson, of Massa chusetts, declined to answer to their Dames on the bollot for Speaker, although they were called three times. The Virginia Readjustee all voted for Keifer, and Mr Yorke, the inde pendent Democrat from North Caro lina, who was elected on the coali tion ticket, voted for. John S. Wise. Mr. Bobinson received two Republi can votes for Speaker. Mr. White, of Kentucky, voted for Mr. Lacy, of Michigan, and Col, Ochiltree, the independent Republican from Texas, voted for Mr. Wadsworth, of New ;York. With these exceptions Mr. Keifer received the solid Republican vote, and probably regards himself as thoroughly ''vindicated.". . Mr. , Carlisle, of course, received the solid Democratic vote, including the Maryland delegation, who have not yet heard ofany bankruptcies at home or closing of business establish ments in consequence of his nomina tion. He walked to the Speaker s chair arm-in-arm ' with Messrs Kei fer and Randall, who acted as his es cort by 'appointment of the clerk. He made his address, standing be 1 hind the bed of flowers which, sent v frieBdsanamirejrs, ia. banfefsft, and patdclic dcv-ics .. v. v i I'n Speak ev's desk.
