law of 1872, relieving certain foreign

to Committee on Finance.
The Railroad Committee had a long
and rather excited session, and adjourned
without action.
Proceedings that have transpired give
no plausible indication of the result,
though the through line from ooean to
ocean seems to have most friends, the
argument being that feeders will come of
their owu accord. There are many con
necting schemes, which prevent the pres
ent, and which may defeat final ac
tion. It is either Tom Scott pure and
simple or nethiug.
Pratt of Indiana presented joint reso-
lutious of tholadiana Legislature in favor
of granting pensions to surviving soldiers
of the Mexican war. Ordered to be print
ed and lie on the table. Pratt said this

reached. He sent to tho clerk’s desk end
had read a letter from tho Commissioner
of Pensions in answer to an inquiry ad
dressed to him by the chairman of the

states that tbe estimated number of sur
vivors of the Mexican war is 35,604, and
the estimated number of widows of sol
diers who served in that war is 12,600.
Morton, of Indiana, presented a me
morial signed by officers of Women’s

sule, of alcoholic liquors, as a beverage,
in tho District of Columbia.
Norwood, of Georgia, presented reso
lutions of tbe Legislature of that State
condemning Federal interference in
Louisiana. Ordered to bo printed and
lie on the table.
Scott, of Pennsylvania, from Commit
tee on Claims, reported back several me
morials for compensation for quartermas
ter stores taken fgr the army daring the
late war, and the committee was dis
charged from further consideration of
the same. He said those olaims
oon'd have been filed undor statute
before the Commissioners of Claims be
fore the time expired, as the bill was now
pending before Congress to extend the
time for filing claims of this character.
Committee on Claims had decided to take
no action on such claims until tbe policy
of Congress on extending time should be
settled
Senate then rosumed consideration of
the resolution of Scburz instructing the
Judiciary Committee to inquire what leg
islation is necessary by Congress to se
cure to the people of Louisiana the rights
of self-government under the Constitu
tion.
West, of Louisiana, and Worrill, of
Vermont, spoke.
Sargent, of California, has floor for to
morrow.
HOUSE.
The first resolution offered in tbe Honse
was one by Hale, of Maine, to amend the
rules, by adopting the following:
Whenever a question is pending before
the House, the Speaker shall not enter
tain any motions of a diliatory character,
except one motion to adjourn, and one
motion to fix the day to which the Honse
shall adjourn; but tbe previous question
on the engrossment and third reading of
a bill, or joint resolution, shall not be or
dered during the first day of its consid
eration, unless three-fourtbs of the mem
bers present shall second the demand;
provided that this rule shall not apply to
the House resolution offered in the morn
ing hoar of Monday ; and provided far
ther, that it shall not apply to any propo
sition to appropriate the money, or the
credit or other property of tbe United
Stntes, except tbe regular appropriation
bills.
Randall, of Pennsylvania, made a point
of order, which, after discussion, was
overruled, and tho resolution was referred
to the Committee on Rules.
Tbe Speaker then proceeded to the call
of the States for bills for reference, be
ginning with tbe Slate of Maine.
Halo, of Maine, introduced a resolution
to change the rules of the House by tbe
adoption of the following as a new rule.
[Published above.]
Cessna, of Pennsylvania, alscuoffered
resolutions to change the rules, providing
in addition to a rule, substantially the
same as the one offered by Halo of Maine,
that the Judiciary Committoe may report
bills of a public character on Tuesdays
aud Thursdays, and that the House may
by a majority vote dispense with further
reading of the journal, after its reading
shall have occupied thirty minutes.
A point of order was also made upon it
by ltanduli, which was discussed and
overruled, and the resolution was referred
to the Committee on Rules.
An appeal from tho decision of tbe
chair was taken by Randall and Beck, and
the appeal was presented in written form
as follows :
The undersigned take an appeal from
tho decision of the chair made this day,
which permits the reading of House reso
lutions intended for reference to a coni’
rnittee ou rules to the exclusion of the
business first provided for to be proceeded
with in rule 130. Signed, Samuel Ran
dall, James B. Reek.
Garfield objected to tbe presentation
of suoU a paper setting out what tbe
Speaker's decision wus.
The Speaker remarked that the appeal
waa presented in an unusual way. He
had not decided that Hneh resolutions
should be reoeived to the exolusiou of the
business first provided for.
Randall—“That ia what I say in my ap
peal.”
Tbe Speaker—“But neither the gentle
man from Pennsylvania nor the gentle
men from Kentuoy (Beck) bes e right
to eay so. The motion should go before
tbe House regularly. The piper pre
sented is wholly unusual.’'
After some further oolliquy, the Speak
er stated that he had reduced to writing
his deoision, which was that a resolution
to emend the rules may be read end re
ferred to the Committee on Rules during
the first oall of States in the morning
hour of Monday, and that that constitutes
notioe acoording to the usage of the
Honse, and from that deoision the gen
tleman from Pennsylvania had appealed.
Randall's statement of appeal having
been handed baok to him, he stated that
he had not withdrawn it, and was inform
ed by the Speaker that there was no
neoessity for withdrawing it, as the ohair
had not received it.
An attempt at farther diseueiion was
defeated by load oslle for tbe regular
order.
Kasson of Iowa moved to lay Randall's
appeal on the table. Agreed to by yeas
175, nays 84—a strlot party vote.
Cessna's resolution was then referred to
tbe Committee on Rules.
Butler, of Massachusetts, moved to sus
pend the rules so as to allow the Commit
tee on Rules to report at the preeent time
for consideration amendment and notion,
any new rules or changes of rules, and
providing that during the consideration
end discassion of each report and amend
ment offered thereto, the Speaker shall
entertain no dilatory motion, whatever,
and that the disousaion on the rules and
amendments thereto shall not exceed one
hour.
There was great excitement as the vote
progressed, and particularly whan it be
came known that the neoesssry two-thirds
had not been obtained, it lacking foar of
that number, when the roll-call was fin
ished.
Messengers were sent to committee
rooms to look for absent members, and
every effort made on part of majority to
secure the nsoessary two-thirds.
After the reading of the names, but
before the announcement of the vote,
Williams of Wisconsin rose and voted
aye, whereupon Randall asked the Speak
er whether the gentlemen (Williams) waa
in the hall daring roll call as required by
the rule.
Tbe Speaker intimated to Randall that
he waa not justified in suggesting that
any member would offer to vote if not
entitled to do so.
Randall replied that be had meant no
imputation on any one, and would not al
low tbe Speaker to endeavor to make him
appear as if be had.
The Speaker said lie could not regard
it s the right of any member to oate-
t-U so another member on such a point.
W .Hiatus said he did not regard Randall
as capable of putting an imputation on
bis veracity. He had not voted at first,
beesnse when bis name was called he was
in conversation with a gentleman.
Randall replied that the gentleman from
Michigan should not refleot upon him in
any p irtionlar.
W.l.iains—Does the gentleman cast a
suspicion on me now, that I was not with
in the hall during roll oall ?
Randall—I do not, and I will not allow
the gentleman to refleot on me, either.
Williams—Then why did you put the
question ?
Randall—Because I wanted it distinctly
understood.
After Williams bad voted aye, Pelham,
of Alabama, also voted aye, and McNnlta,
of Illinois, was ready to vote the same
way, but stated that he waa in the eorri-
dor and not in the hall daring tbe roll
oall.
The vote was then announced as yeas
170, nays 86, less than two-thirde in the
affirmative ; so the motion was rejected.
The only exception to the vote being a
striot party one was that of Saner, of
Virginia, a ltepublioan, who voted “no.”
His vote tbo other way would have carried
the motion.
Batler, of Massachusetts, moved to
sqspend the rules, so as to authorize the
Committee on iialoB to report immediate
ly after reading of tho journal to-morrow
changes or amendments to tbe roles and
providing that during tbo consideration of
snch report no dilatory motion whatever
shall be entertained by tbe Speaker and
that debate thereto shall cease within one
hour after the report shall be made.
Eldridge, of Wisconsin, moved an ad
journment. Negatived by yeas and nays.
The vote was then taken on Butler's
motion, and amid renewed exoiteinent it
was rejected—yeas 173, nays 89, not two-
thirds in the affirmative.
Sener, of Virginia, was tho only Re
publican who voted in tho negative.
Garfield, of Ohio, then moved to take
a recess till ten o’oloek to-morrow morn-
Bnpreme Court.
Haughton et. al., vs. Rouse. Error to
the Oirouit Court of Mississippi. This
was the reversal of a judgment in favor
ef Rouse in an action brought to rcoover
a plantation in Mississippi, belonging to
Haughton sold for taxes, on the ground
that Haughton, notwithstanding his bankj
ruptcy, after sale was entitled to redeem,
and that a sufficient application to re
deem was made.

London, February 1.—One hundred and
twenty thousand miners are idle by tbs
lookout in the South Wales. Six thou
sand ship wrights of New-Gaatle-on-Tyoe
have struok.
—Tbe Mseon Telegraph nays that the
“much abused Central railroad is about
the only thoronghfare iu tho country
whioh encourages immigration and dis
courages emigration.” Mr. Wadley, the
president, has always refused to grant
any redaction of rates to person* leaving
Georgia for tbe West or Southwest. Im
migrants, white or colored, coming into
this State for the purpjse of locating are
given the benefit of very low rates and
receive the kindest treatment from tbe
employees of the eompany.
—The Elberton Ornette give* tbs fol
lowing aoeount of tbe affray in which Dr.
Stribling received the wound of wbiob
he has sinee died: It appears there was a
dispute about an acoouut betwoou Mr.
John Eberhsrt and Dr. Stribling on Sat.
nrday last, which to all appearances had
boon passed over, or rather the pirties in
dispute bad agreed to disagree. Some
few miuutes after, without any apparent
8 revocation, Mr. Eberbart struck Dr.
tribliog with bis stick, knookiug him
down. Dr. Stribling attempted to rise
when Jacob Ebsrhurt, son of tbe first one
named, knooked him down again. Tbe
second time tbe doctor essayed to get ap
John N. Eberbart, another son, ran up
and cat him in two places, one of which
wss in tbe bowels, with a dirk, producing
a fatal wound. At this janoturs Mr. Bioh-
ard Ward came up and took stand between
the contending parties, in order to pre
vent eny further assenlt on the doctor.
While Mr. Eberbart, senior, engaged Mr.
Werd in front, John, the younger, came
behind the peacemaker and drove his dirk
in his back, directly under the shoulder
blade, tbe knife penetrating aix or eight
inches, producing, iu the opinion of) he
'physicians, a fatal wound. The Eber-
harts have been arrested.
