This communication provoked a rather savage debate,' in' which Mr.' McCulloch and his officers were severely ' handled. , We wish the Speaker would put a peremptory stop to ' such debate as Messrs. Schenckand Ross indulged in.- ; The former accused Mr. McCulloch of a "dirty blackguard attack on Congress," and the latter did -not want mambers to make blackguards of themselves. The disgraceful sceues of the last session show the nevitable result of snch abuse of the freedom of debate, and we beg the Speaker to check it promptly in future. N. Y. Tribnne, July 19.

The inconvenience and solicitude experienced by our people throughout the Territory on account of the delay in creating these last mentioned offices, and the making of the appointments thereof has been great ; and it will be a source of general satisfaction to know that these positions are now finally about to be thrown, open to the public, and that they hare been filled by experienced, competent and obliging gentlemen.

To day the General stands unequivocally for the Union and for the Union party as against all forms and factions of disloyalty.; He is, in short, a consistently conservative Republican: one who believes that the first and highest dnty of an American citizen is to love, honor and piotect his Government and his country. He believes that national politics and abstract political issues should not be allowed to distract the, people of a young and dependent Territory.like ours, but that we should unite as a people in the selection of true,' reliable and patriotic citizens to represent us in Congress and fill our local offices, such men as will secure the greatest amount of the necessary?
