To thoe ! nt a distance j it may Le difficult to frame a j definite and satisfactory answer; but to those her, the rep'y is easily conceived and expressed. There are three partes in the House, one, the Democratic party number 75 rotes ihe j ItepubTicau or Anti Nebraska party about 1 1 5. -t and the American party about :. The Dem- j ocrats determined, in caucus, that they would vote for their nominee until some one was I elected -of coure without any hope of elect-! ing him. Iu their caucus they passed a reso- j lution denunciatory of the American or j Know NV.hing party, at they term it, audi hi resolution prevents any c-v-operation of J the two parties. The Administration Lai aI.o been very prescriptive of the American party j here, descending in their bitter pr script ion, i t:i-n down to lite day laborer aboa; th Cap- ' f..l. S long a the Americans in-iin'ain any ' ft!f -respect, they cannot, will not unie wkhi the Democrat. The large proportion of the Auieiicnn party, as a (lis. lot priy in the! House, are bora the South, and they denounce the northern Americans, wi.o are, at all j times, with A nti -Slavery principles a-i spo- , tates from the party, and jet soma of these unilo with lhe. Americans of the South, arid j ov for Mr. Fuller, he having taken ground ' in faor of permitting Kansas to come in a? a Live or Free S'.ato. as she may apply- j you will say, why do not the ltepublio- j in-, iiu lube ring il.'i, elect n speaker. One j hundred and seven have o ed for Mr. Hanks; ' but it re'jn'res eten or eight more to elect ' him. Some will no', vote for Mr. Hanks, be- i cauo they ay Mr. Banks' friends would not j vote for Mr. Campbell. Other say they w ill not ot2 for him because he U a Know Nothing, j ifcc, il c. A few men hold the ability to elect him, but refuse to do it. There the j matter rests. I lie time is taken up iu voting and funking speeches. The speeches are almost all of a personal and political nature, defining the position of members or of their respective parlies. The speeches are such as we should expect to hear before the people, previous to an election, but utterly uncalled for, and ustles in Congress. As to when an election will be haJ, is a mere matter of speculation, and I am not disposed to engage in its unce.taiiois. Several ineffectual efforts have been made to secure the adoption of a plurality resolution similar to that by which an election was male in 1 04!, but no vote has yet beeu taken upon it. because no one has believed it could pass. The Democrats will not vote for it unless ! well assured that it would secure the election of Richardson. The Americans have de'.er- j mined, and avowed their determina'ion not to . contribute to the election of any man, and so ' they will not vote for it. The fame cause! t j which prevents the election of Hanks by the T.epublicnn party, prevents the passage of a plurality resolution. We w II I, are to bide our time. j 1 have full faith that the friends of slavery restriction will stand firm, and will eventually j elect a speaker who will act with equal and j exact justice to all parties. They seek no ad-1 vantages above a fair administra ion of the' duties of the chair, under the long establish- ', ed and well known principles of Parliamentiv Law that in the apjiointraent of commit-' ;ees, a majority of each committee shall be! in favor of the proposi ion sought to be carried out. In other words, if a petition is presented asking the abolition of the slave trade in the Distiict of Columbia, that peti- ! lion shall be referred to a committee, a major-' ity of which shall be in favor of the prayer of . the petitioners, so that a favorable report may be made, nnd it rtceives a res ectful hearing. On the other hand, if a petition be presented asking for the extension of slavery, that it be treated in precisely the same respectful man- ' ner. In the appointment of the standing committees, so far as freedom is preferoble to ' slavery, tl e friends of freedom should have the control of those committees. Kiinal and exact jistice, uiJer the the spirit of our free institutions, is all that is asked. It is said the PreVi Jem's message was printed in the White House that for the purpose , of secrecy, a punting office was moved into' the third story of the Executive Mansion, and the message there printed. It is probable the ' type was set up there, and the form retained in the possession of the President, as there j could be no object in printing it until about ) the time tt is to be delivered to Congress. j We have heard no anxiety expressed to see the j message. It may refer to important questions, but the public mini does not f-eem to care what Mr. 1'iorce's opinions may be in regard ! to them. H. l S. I have received a large number off applications for documents, and beg leave respectfully t assure those making application, as well as those who may sead me their : address, that I shall be happy to forward all ; that I can obtain; but as all published by the last Congress go to ray predecessor for distri- j bution, I have but few at my dispoaal. I shall be pleased to receive the name and address of any person who may desire such documents as may hereafter be placed at my disposal. The New Jersey Colinixation Society, , which baa been in existence since 1825, has recently purchased 1 53,000 acres f land in the interior of Africa. By this it is their intention to to open intercourse from the seaboard to the centre of the continent. The New Jersey Legislature ruu appropriated 96, 000 to the Society, and with this they propose making roads and build eg houses suitable for the emigrants. K.i plosion f Uai. Elizabbthtoww, N.

An accident occurred this afternoon at the gas works in this city, caused by one of the workmen going into the purifying house with alighted can die, a large quantity of escaped gas being there confined. The explosion, which immediately followed, demolished the building and seriously burned the workmen.
