YANcEY is a member from that State elected to supply the vacancy occasioned by the esc ton of the Hon. DIXON H. LEWIS to the United States Senate. Though young man, he came into the House with high reputation for talents and ability as debater. His speech to-day has fully and amply sustained that character and met public expectation.
