PRAKER PENNINGTON MENTIONED FOR THE PRESIDENCY. Pesnington’s election, for Speaker has made him promi- fentfor the Presidency. Already his friends are active, His souservative views on all national questions, his tariff ‘octrines ana old line whig prociivities, will, they say, se- ure Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The American party North witl alao accept him; that portion of the aati-Le- ©ompton force refusing to follow Douglas in support of the Charleston nominee, will be marshalled in line by drain, Forney and others. To secure the influence of the Biair party, young Blair will be offered the Vice Presiden ‘y. This movement is dangerous to Seward’s prospects. THE STANDING COMMITTERS OF THE HOUSE. The Speaker will not announce commitiees before Thurs ay. Sherman will be Chairman of the Committee of Ways Bud Means, and Leader of the House, An absurd story is #float that Corwin is entitled to that position, but he does ‘not want it, and is sensible enough to know that Sherman is extitled to the place by parliamentary courtesy. Mr. Grow will be Chairman of the Committee on Terri- Frtorics, the position assigned him by Speaker Banks in the hirty-fourth Congress. Had Sherman been elected, the heirmentbip of the Committee of Ways and Means id, by parliamentaty courtesy, have fallen to Grow, he being Sherman's principal republican competitor for Speskership, but even in that event Iam authorita- tively informed he would not have accepted it, considering ritorial atlairs,upon which he is thoroughly posted, more Mr. Corwin from his past position is, by general consent, warded the chairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and report says that Speaker Pennington will as- gn himtiat position, Mr. Burlingame, who by courtesy 8 entitled todt, having intimated to the Speaker that such an arrangement would be gratifying to him. Me, Washburne of Maine, declining to accept the chair- webip of the Committee on Riections—a highly impor- #n\-committee this Congress, on account of the unusually large nrmber of contested seats to be settled—leaves the eid to Mr. ‘Wilson of Indiana, a manevery way qualified hie the post. Mr. Haskin, of New York, will probably be Chairman if the Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads. Mr. Colfax at the head of Indian affairs. Carter, of New York, or Washburne, of Illigpis, at tho jead of the Committee on Commerce. Fenton, Chairman of Committee on Invalid Pensions. ‘Dawos, of Massachusetts, Chairman of Committee on evolutionary Clalms, Cuotiz, Chairman of Committee on Military Affairs. ‘Mr. Adrain will probably retain his place at the head of e Committee on Engraving. ‘Tappan , of New Hampahire, is the only republican elect- to this Congress who has served on the Judiciary Com- ittee in the last Congress, and therefore the chairman- ip by courtesy is due to him; but the honors seem to be ided between him and Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania. E. Joy Morris will be Chairman of the Committee on the {der him to republicans, the rest will be divided among A friends. His olection being considered a political ne- psity, and achieved as it was without exacting from him ty pledge, he ig more free than most of the other offi. elected. The contemplated appointment, by Col. Forney, of Sher- , of New York, to the place of Reading Clerk, is ongly opposed by republican members of the New delegation, Mr. Buch, Document Clerk, will pro.

TBR CANDIDATES FOR DOORKEMPRA AND POSTMASTER. two men, Marston and Lucas, nominated by the jubtiean caucus yesterday for Doorkeever and Postmas- lof the-House, turn out to be two cx-clerks of the past joual administrations which are so distasteful to the biicans. Lucas has not been in the employ of the ernment for nearly two years, and Senator Trumbull others endorse his republicanism. Another caucus be held by the republicans on the subject of Printer. uty Pennsylvanians in caucus yesterday voted for the ‘ination of Marston as Doorkeeper, thus striking at the » England interest for printing, which creates intense , and it is said may defeat Marston's election to- ‘THE POST OFFICE DEFICIENCY BILL. ‘ong efforts will be made to pass the Post Office Defl- | cy bil this-week. Notwithstanding the recommenda- | of the President to interest on Post Office securities, bdments will be offered against its payment, on the i that the scrip has been bought up by speculators ‘ge discounts, and hence ought not to be allowed. ‘TRE PUBLIC PRINTING. printing lobby are working like beavers to elect candidate. A written programme has been pre- , with Lackman’s share of the spoils set apart. Some rn republican members are said to be cognizant of the ce. Wendell and a paper maker of notoriously bad edents in his dealings with the government are in plundering progaamme. Every other candidate has bought off by promises, but the old line republicans mined to head off this corrapt scheme. They 'y have elected a peoples party man for Speaker, ju Lecompton Clerk and a South American Sergeant- , but now they mean to recognize the services of | Mrlieet and ablest defenders of the principles of the | jlican party. Rich deyelopements will be made if ‘under combination is passed. They will rival the pt bargainings exposed in the Senate printing inves- mn. ZVELOVEMENTS BEFORE THE SENATR PRINTING COMMITTER— AID FURNISHED TO NKWSPAPERS. developements before the Senate Printing Invosti- \, Committee are the subject of general discussion, yreaten to break Gown the corrupt and extravagant “4 which bas hitherto onavied a parcel of adven. and broken down political hack newspapers to get vietuals trom the public crib. Wendell com. of baving been cheated by General Bow- and hence his virtuons indignation, and the the country is being favored with ag bargains and corruptions of the existing injob. Wendell has testified, in addition to the de ‘with Genera! Bowman to transfer the ir to him, and pay him (Bowman) the 4,000 per annum towards ite support; said pay- _ eptatinus so long as he (Wendell) continued in the “w@rfoe of the executive printing and binding as - NEw YORK HERALD, MONDAY all there fair agreements, Wendell says; forgot the wm,” | thousand dollars he had received for the physical nutriment of the Constitution newspaper, and entered into a contract with John C. Rives to execute a portion of the work, whilst other portions, consisting of Post Offiee Dianks, he bas arranged to have executed by Jewett, the Publisher of that Know Nothing organ, the Buffalo Com- mercial Advertiser. Nay, Wendell goes further, and de- clares that the polite and ornate Jobn C, Rives is really the junior partner still of that arch republican Blair, who was the author, or, at all events, editor of the Helper book—so that in fact and in truth the Senate printing, together with that of the execu- tive departments, now serves as pabulence for a Know Nothing organ on the one hand, and the Sponsors of the Helper treason on the other; whilst that ‘bogus miliary character Gen. Bowman, sits quietly be- tween the two and pockets his per centage of the profits, Wendell proves the partnership between Blair and Rives by the fact that Rives’ business notes are given in the name of the firm. This arrangement accounts for the re- tiring of Senators Seward and Sumner when the vote was taken, thus allowing Bownan to be elected so as to benefit the editor of “Helper.” Add to these disclosures the assertion that Wendell ha” to support also the Pennsylvanian and the Evening Argus couple of apparently not over prosperous Philadelphia newspapere—that he alleges he has had to sustain other newspaper starvelings, and a herd of beggarly hangers- ‘on, Steedman, Banks, McLean, Walker, Rice, Severns, &c., and a pretty good insight is given into the corrup- tions of this gigantic swindling job of the public printing. ~ RLBCTION OF A UNITED STATES SENATOR FROM CALIFORNIA. Private advices by the overland mail state that Mr. ‘Milton S. Latham has been elected Senator of the United States for California. COMMITTEES OF INVESTIGATION. Committees of investigation will be demanded upon Public affairs in California. ‘THE MINISTER FROM BOLIVIA.

No clue has yet been obtained of the recent robbery at Charleston of the money and other valuables belonging to the General, amounting to seventeen thousand dollars. Trial of Stephens at Charlestown—Ver- dict of Guilty. Cranresrown. Va, Feb. 4, 1860. ‘The trial of Stephens was concluded to-day. No new evi- dence was adduced. The speeches of counsel were mostly of a political character, discussing the present po- sition of the questions between the North and South. ‘The commonwealth made a proposition to submit the case without argument, but the counsel for the defence, wished to be heard for his chent. Mr. Harding made the opening argument. He denounced as a jalsehood and libel that assertion of John Brown that he was to reeeive aid from the laboring classes at Harper’s Ferry. He claimed that they were true to the constitution and the State, and re- ferred to their action in putting down the invasion, Ho concluded with an carnest appeal to the jury to vindicate the law, and charged that the prisoner was a bloodthirsty villain and wretch, and worse than Brown. Mr. Sennott, for the defence, made an able and cloquent speech, going into a history of the rise and progress of the republican party, and closing with an earnest appeal to the jury to apare the life of the prisoner. Mr. Hunter closed on the part of the commonweaith. He replied to the arguments of the dofence with telling effect. He had ne confidence in the Union meetings held in the North. The invasion had been a benefit to the ‘South, as it had shown them the position in which they were placed. He referred to Mr. Hickman’s boasting of the eighteen million of Northern men, and declared the South were prepared for any emergency. ‘The case was submitted to the jury at four o’clock. They then retired, and after fifteen minutes’ absence, re- turned with a verdict of Guilty of all the counts. ‘The prisoner received the verdict with most perfect in- difference, and smiled at the announcement.

The ca- lendars seem to grow with the growth of the city, for all of them are unusually large; but, owing to the parsimo- ny of the Board of Supervisors in some things which are actually necessary, the calendars are not published in book form, as heretofore. Judge Ingraham being en- gaged at the Oyer and Terminer, a neighboring justice will come to New York to preside at one of the branches of the Supreme Court Circuit. Several murder cases have stready been disposed of, and there are some twelve of fourteen trials for homicides of various grades yet to come before the Court of General Jail Delivery. Two branches of the Superior Court and two of the Common Pleas will also be in session, and two judges will preside in the Marine Court. ‘The February term of the General Seesions commences this morning, Recorder Barnard presiding. All the im- portant cases having been removed to the Oyer and Ter- miner by the District Attorney, the Court will be occu- pied in trying a Jarge calendar of indictments for grand larceny and burglary. February Session of the Common Coun- ceil. ‘The Board of Aldermen will meet this evening for the despatch of business. There are several matters of im- portance te which their attention has been called in vain, and we presume that some member will move to take from the present committee the matter of the inquiry into the charges against certain Aldermen of the present Roard, unless the committee are prepared to show that they are progressing iu their investigation.

Vera Croz, as well as New Orleans, keenly feels the withdrawal of the Tennessee, in stoppage of mails and business operations. «Surely? sayae correspondent, “something should be done at once, by the Postmaster General, for this neces- sary mail line.”” The latest cates from the city of Mexico, by the Brook- lyn, are to the 19th inst.

The novelty for the present week is an historical pageant called the Merry Sports of Old England, in which there will be an exact representation of a steeple chase.
