'The Speaker. The opinion oi the Ohnir is tho same as before announced. Tho point on whioli tho two hoOsos separated waa on the objections made bv the gentleman from Massachusetts. The President of tho Senate, as the members know very well, hesitated as to tlie construction of tho joint res olution, mid finally decided that tho Scnato should retire; - Tho decision and tho retiring were both on tho point of the objection mado by .tho gentleman from Massachusetts. After some further points of ordor I being raised by Messrs. Mungen and Farnsworth, and 'overruled by the Speaker, the question was token on the direct question whether tho vote -of Georgia should bo counted, nnd it was decided iu the negative—yeas if, nays 150—tho only Republicans vot ing yon being Messrs Baker and Hawkins. The Houso—then whilo awaiting tho i ( turn of tho Senate—disposod by unanimous consent _ of considerable routine business. Mr. Young, of .Georgia, doolarod that lie entered bis solemn protest in the name of tho people and in tho name ot tho Constitution, against the action of die House. Tim Speaker then, at 4,25, announc ed that tho Houso would reoeive tho Sennftl bl tho United States. TlmTSmators entered tho hall for tho third tlbu,- took the feats sot apart for then^jfend Senator Wade, as presiding officer, again called tho joint cflnvon- t ion to order, and announced that the afejMftions ot tho gentleman irom Mas- 'fitePnsetts woro overruled by the Sen- i*Mr. Ilutlcr, (renewing the attack itfipetiioualy). Mr.President,Iriso to a Qubnliun ot tf.’y- gavel was made tj this quoation. . Mr. Baiks (making an effort to throw oil ipon tho troubled waters) asked leave to piako a suggestion which he itought; would relieve the convention rom the difficulty in which it was placid. Mr. Kldsdgo objected, saying that he wantodi Ires fight, and that if any body waa gsing to pitch in thoy should all nave ai equally fair chance. The Prislding Officer. Objection U mado.

Mr. 8hallabarger*(\vho waB trying to have order restored) went quietly to the Clerk’s desk and suggested the course that! hould bo pursued. Win thp midst of all this turmoil and excitement, Senator Conkling, one of the tollers, rose to annonneo tho result of the Vote. His first sentence was drowned in.vooiferous shouts of “No voto!” “No votol" from the anti- Senatorial aide of the Houso.
