SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.
“'9 suppose that there will be more or
less speculation in reg-aid-to the Speaker-
ship. Of course the Speaker will be a
Whig, but which one among the number of
those competent to the discharge of th--
duties of theoflice, we can form no satis-
factory conjecture. The place will re-
_q_uire a gentleman of some experience in
legislation, one who has been a member
for at least .one session. ,There are seve-
ral such persons. Among those more
rominent is Layfayette S. Foster, Esq. of
Norwich, an-experienced member and one
of the most promising lawyers and politi-
cians in the.S’tate. But Mr. Foster is very
muchneededuipon the floor, and is withal
in poor health, so that it is very doubtful
whether he would accept the appointment.
Another prom_inent gentleman is Charles
Chapman, Esq:ofHartford. Mr. Chapman
has much. experience as a legislator-—is a
gentleman of brilliant tullcnts—and every
. way qualified tomake an excellent presiding
officer, but he is much needed upon the
floor. He is the man to take care of Mr.
Cleaveland, and some three or four more
prominent loco focos—and we doubt
whethierhis constiuents would le willing
that he should leave this post of represen-
tative for the Speakership. In Fairfield
County, we perceive the name of two or
three members who will perhaps be bro’t
forward by the whigs of that county.
In Litchfield County, we perceive the
name of a gentleman who would doubless
"' grace the Speaker’!-: chair and make an
acceptable officer. It is that of Nathan’l.
B. Smith, of Woodbury, and there maybe
others in the same County. Mr. Smith
\vas a member many‘ years since--is a
gentlemen of fine talents, and we presume
of sufiicient experience to fill the place
with credit to himselfand the House.

In New Haven county one of the most
prominent of the members elect is that of
Hon. Green Kendrick of \Vaterbury. This
gentleman has been a member of both
Houses of the legislature-—hns been an ac-
tive public man tor many years, and been
accustomed to presiding in public meet-
ings, conventions, dzc. He has a quici «S1.
sagacious mind is a high mind-d, gener-
ous hearted inan, and we believe has all
the qualities requisite for an accomplished
speaker. Being thus qualified, and thus
prominent, we should not be surprised if
he should receive the unanimous vote of
the members of this county and of the
legislative caucus, unless he refuses to
have his name presented. There may be
other prominent names in the State than
those alluded to. VVe certainly have no
thought ofdispara,qin,'1' any——but it is al-
ways very natural, after an election to
exercise the yankee privilege of guessing
who will be Speaker 'l——PaIludiu/n.
VERA CRUZ SURRENDERED!
With the Casttetl
The intelligence of the unconditional
surrender of Vera Crir/:‘ and the Castle
reached the city of New York, on Saturday
2 o’clock, P. M., from the South. It took
place on the 29th, after a terrific bomard-
merit of three days.
The steamer Princeton, Com. Conner,
arrived atPensacola on the 4th inst. with
despntches for the Government, containing
the news of the glorious victory.
The loss of the Mexicans is represented
as immense, while only 6:’) Americans were
killed and wounded. The fire from the
American batteries is represented as
terrific. Capt. Vinton and Midshipman
Shubrick are killed.
More than 4000 Mexicans, with their
officers, among them live Generals, sur-
rendered- Gen. Worth and Pillow, with
Col. Trotten are the commissioners for
treating with the Mexicans.
Com. Connor returns home, and Com.
Perry is left in command of the Gulf
Squdron.
Locqfocoism Dagucrreotyped.-—The Journal
of Commerce of yesterday has the following,
which shows the rapid strides “Democracy” is
making in its downward earea to infamy.-
\Vhen the friends of loco focoism speak such
language, is it not: time for decent men to pause
and reflect. The Editor is speaking of the can-
didate for Mayor of that city.
“If democracy runs much lower in this
city it will be lost in the gutter. Now is
the time to rebuke the spirit that would
degrade it. Real Democracy seeks to
protect the rights of all, without injury to
any. Spurious democracy [locofocoism]
sacrifices the general interests of society
to the caprice of the low and grovelling.
It loves degradation for its own sake.”
The Mi1:t.—The coinage of the Mintat Phil-
adelphia last month exceeded two millions of
dollars, being the largest amount ever coined in
one month since the government was founded
It was as follows:
In gold coins. $1,988,880
In silver do. 88.600
In copper do. 2,031

Gen. Taylor and Family.—A letter from
New Orleans to the N. Y. Mirror says:
1 It is understood here that Gen. Taylor
will soon apply for leave to retire from
his present arduous duties. He has been
absent now nearly three years, and con-
stantly in the field. This for an old man,
is a severe and protracted service; but he
is It tough, patient and persevering old
fellow. His family are now here though
their residence is at Baton Rogue. His
unmarried daughter is a beautiful, accom-
plished and interesting young lady; she
attracts much attention among the fash-
ionables. The old soldier’s private for-
tune has been much impaired by his‘ long
absence from home, He was quite well
off at one time, but unfortunately made a
purchase of a cotton plantation on the
Mississippi, a portion of which caved in;
this and the failure of his crops for seve-
ral years, have somewhat embarrassed him
and demand his present attention and care.
A great and fundamental error which lies at
the root of all so called incurable cases of Lung
and Skin disezises, is the simple fiictthat scarce
any reliance is given to the source and charac-
ter.ofreinr:di'es, and of course the patients t.ry
many that pretend to cure without iltappening
on that which may actually produce the effect
desired. Ifa fiiithful trial be given to Briint’s
Indian Remedies, no disappointment can occur,
tliey have the true medicinal power and need
only to be used to convince the otherwise incre.d-
ulous. Observe the udveitiseineut. 3
