Mr. Crawford proposed to offer one to ac- complish the same object, by voting by States, as is done under the Constitution by the House, when it becomes that body’s duty to choose a President of the United States. Both these propositions were laid over until te-morrow, by consent. Mr. Marshall proposed a resolution expressive of the inion of the House, that if all the candid: now being voted for would withdraw, their course would be con- ducive to an election. Mr. M. advocated this proposition with great earnestness, offering, on the part of the Na- tional Know Nothing party, to support a Dem- ocrat, to be named by themselves. or to su) port any member of their own party, to A named 4 the Democrats. ee as — setiaeed tie House in favor of resolution, ing the existing state aged the hal a tin on our Govern ment, and urging that it be speedily ended.

Mr Cobb, of Ga., also the resolu- tion, replying to so much of the remarks of Mr. Millson as (he held) reflected on the course of the Democrats in this contest. Mr. Millson denied that he had assailed the Democratic party. He did not regard the caucus asthe Democratic party; and remarked that in common with many of the gisest, most experienced, and most patriotic bers of the cor ee on the floor, he serious! doubted the wisdom of the action of their caucus Mr. Whitney addressed the House in oppo- sition to the resolution, declaring that nocau- cus or combination could induce him to vote for anything looking like a support of this ad ministration. of the Board of Aldermen on THURSDAY, the « ist instant, at 7 o’clock p. m ’ EDWARD C CARRINGTON, janet (Organ) Secreta.

We have no doubt that such was the inten- tion of the directors of their counsel, subse- quently abandoned, however, because those whom they have been spurring, lashing, bully- ing, and browbeating, were inno temper to be put through the drill that usually takes place on such occasions. The Mission to England.—Perceiving it announced by telegraph that the mission to England has been tendered to the Hon. Geo. M. Dallas, of Pa., we have to remark that up to this time, we did not feel at liberty to state the fact, as we obtained the information in a manner in which we felt it to be obligatory on us to say nothing about it until the Govern- ment thought fit to make it public. We have only to add that we have no doubt of the truth of the statement. No better se- lection, in any particular, could be made. RUBERT MACAIRE.
