Tha Wreck or tho Oriental.
Boston, Juno 5.—Tho steamer Ori
ental, Capt Doane, of the Savannah and

last evening. The vessel left Savannah
on Tuesday last and experienced heavy
winds as far as Cape Hatteras. On Sat
urday night last, when off Gaybead of-

Tho Marsrary Murder.
London, Juno 5 —A special dispatch
from Calcutta to the Times save Mr. Gros-
venor’s mission arrived at Kangoon on
Friday last. Messrs. Grosvenor and Bab-
ler remained at Mandalay. Tho evidence
shows clearly that Mr. Margary was
murdered by tho Chineso Imperial troops.
It is expected that Loaettahee. tho Chi
nese General, will ho exonerated from
complictity in the affair. The Chineso
authorities await Mr. Grosvenor’« report
beforo carrying out executions of those
implicated in the murder.
Vxbt Latest—The Berlin Telegraphic

The Times' Berlin correspondent, com
menting on the tono of the Gorman press,
remarks that thero is but too much rea
son for these apprehensions. Tho King
of Greece has ordered his army on a war

Mr. Blaine Again Explains.
Mr. Blaise rose in a personal explana
tion. He read tho resolution offered by
Mr. Tarbox. The author of the resolu
tion at the timo disclaimed any particu
lar allusion to Mr. Blaine. It soon be
came entirely obvious that tho resolution
w,is solely nnd only aimed at him. The
Union Pacific matter, or any other inci
dent to the investigation was secondary,
insignificant and unimportant. He did
not care for that, 03 bo was ready to
meet it. He had expected an early re-
por', but it hid been prolonged. It had
no sooner got through with the last than,
without the slightest notice, another
committeo bad entered on an is
vestigation specially aimed at turn
so there were threo investigations
going on at the ssma time and
none completed. He understood Mr
Hunton proposed still another enquiry
about tho Kansas Pacific—a transaction
which was fifteen years old. Even if it
existed and was also aimed at him now,
ho would say it, and say i’ boldly, that
under these general powers to investigate
specific railroad corapinies. tho wholo
engineering of the committees was aim
ed personally at him. Why did they
not organize a committee to investigate
Jamei G. Blaine? He wanted to
meet tho thing rquarely. He did n-.t
srish to stir up any blood on this
question, but he would say that ever
since a certain debate took place in the
House in January last, it had been known
that thero were gentlemen hero whoso
feelings had been exasperated against
him, and it was to bo remarked that
while thero were seven Democratic mem
bers of tho Judiciary Committee, tho
Chairman of that committee, Mr. Knott,
selected on tho sub-committee to which
these matters had been referred, two
members from the South who had been
in the rebel army.
Mr. Knott—The matter of that rail
road investigation was referred to the
eub-committee before I over heard your
namo mentioned in connection with it.
I had no act nor pait in inciting any in-
vestigationjimplicating you at nlL
Mr. Blaine proceeded to narrate the
progress of tho investigation and, while
finniiy tho witness (Mulligan) came hero
loaded with information with regard to
tho Fort Smith railroad, ths gentleman
(Hunton) drew out what ho knew had no
refereneo whatever to tho question under
investigation, and then and there insisted
on all my private memoranda being allow
ed to be exhibited by this man (Mulligan)
which had no more connection or relation
with this investigation than with the
North Pole. Tho gentleman tried his
best, also, until I believe teat the idea
has been abandoned to capture and use
nnd control my private correspondence.
This man had selected out of a corrcs
ponds nee, running a great many years,
letters which ho thought would be pe
culiarly damaging to me. Ho camohere
loaded with them. He came here for a
sensation. He cams here primed. He
c.imo hero on that particular errand. I
was advised of it. and I obtained
theso letters under circumstances which
havo been notoriously scattered through
out the United States, and known every
where. I have them, (bolding up a pack
age.) I claim that I have entire right
to these letters, not only by natural
right, but on nil tho precedents and prin
ciples of law. Tho man who held them
in his possession held them wrongfully,
and the committee which attempt
ed to take these letters from this
man for use against mo proceeded wrong
fully. It proceeded in the boldest and
mo3t defiant violation of tho ordinary
personal and private rights that belong
to every American citizen. I am willing
to meet the Judiciary Committee on that
point. I wanted that committeo to in
troduce it. I wanted tho gentleman
from Kentucky, (Knott), and the gentle
man from Virginia, (Hunton), to intro
duce that question on the floor, and they
did not do it.
Mr. Knott (tn his seat)—Oh, no; you
want to be made a martyr of.
Mr. Blaine—Yes, and you did not want
it. There is the difference. I will go a
little farther and say that you did not
dare to do it.
Mr. Knott—Wo will not talk about
daring.
Mr. Hamilton, of New Jersey—I rise to
a question of order. Is the gentleman’s
language parliamentary?
Mr. Blaine—Yes, entirely so.
Tbo Speaker pro tern., Mr. Cox, of New
York, in the Chair—It is for the Chair to
docide.
Mr. Blaine—I understand the Judi-
ary Committee to havo abandoned that
issue against me; but thero has gone
forth tho idea, or impression, that
because I wonld net permit that
man, or any man, when I could prevent
it, from holding as a menace over my head
my private correspondence, there must
be something in it most deadly and de
structive to my reputation. I would like
any gentleman cn this floor, and all of
them ore presumed to bo men of affairs
tvhoro business has been varied and
whose intercourse has been largo._ to
stand up here and sxy that bs is willing
and ready to have his private corres
pondence, for the last ten or twelve years,
handed over and made public.
Mr. Blaine said he proposed to read
those letters to tbo House to silence
slander nnd check surmise. (There was
decided sensation and applause). He
then held up a package of letters, read
ing them rapidly, occasionally stopping
to make soma eiftlanation, and as he
concluded, ho banded them to his private
secretory, who stood near bio.
Mr. Blaine charged Mr. Knott, chair
man of tho committee, with suppressing
a telegram from Josiah Caldwell, in Eu
rope, entirely exhonorating him.
Mr. Blaine explained the Spencer con
tract, to which allusion was made in one
of tho letters, by saying that, in the sum
mer of 1S61, two years before he first
came to Congress, he had been asked if
ho could not get an opportunity for tho
inventor of the Spencer repeating rifle,
to bring that new arm to the attention of
the Secretary of War. He said he thought
he could, and he had come on to Wash
ington and had an interview with Sec
retary Cameron. Mr. Cameron had given
orders to have it tested by the ordnance
bureau, and it had been thoroughly tested
and the experiments were so satisfactory
that a preliminary order for 20,000 rifle3
was made. The company had imme
diately proceeded ta erect an armory in
Boston." He had been paid not an extrav
agant, but a moderate fee for his ser
vices, which he had just as much liber-
tv to take as any other lawyer or agent
had to take a fee. Subsequently he had
taken and paid for $10,000 wortn of stock
in the company which had since been
merged in the Winchester Rifle Compa
ny "That was the whole story.
it tho conclusion of the letters Mr.
B’.a : ne appealed to the House wjether
r.cv member’s private correspondence
would bear search and scrutiny. With
regard to the $6*000 bonds, bWMbOS
he said tho testimony o: Josiah Caldwell
would make his vindication comp.ete.
He offered a resoiution demandmg the
previous question, inquiring of the Judi
ciary Committee whether the chairman
(Mr. Knott) had not on la3t Tuesday re
ceived a dispatch from Caldwell complete
ly corroborating Col. Scott’s testimony
sad exonerating him (Blaine.)
Mr. Hunton, of Virginia, chairman of
the sab-committee, stated that he would
make a short statement of the matter to
which the gentleman (Blaine) bad al
laded, and he trusted he would do it
calmly, dispassionately and fairly. The
House had witnessed lhi3 morning
remarkable, not to say an unexampled
scene. During this session two resolutions
had been adopted by tha House, each of
which ordered an investigation—each of
which had been referred to the Judiciary
Committeo by the House,and each of which
had been by that committee referred to
sub-committee consisting of Mr. Asho.of
North Carolina. Mr. Lawrence, of Ohio,
and himself. Before that committee had
reached any conclusion, or hid finished
taking testimony, an effort was made by
the gentleman who wa3 eupposed to
be most deeply concerned in these
investigations to tako the consider
ution of these question? from the
organ of tho House, and to report
upon them in person. Ho need not re
mind the House what sort of a report
would come from that committee, if the
gentleman from Maine were allowed to
’make it. After the House had ordered
an investigation it was not only unex
ampled, but entirely against legislative
practice for a gentleman to riso and un
dertake to anticipate the conclusions of
the committee, or to state what the ac
tion cf the committeo had been. When
the sub committee was organized, the
gentleman from Maine hud expressed
himself not only satisfied but pleased
with its personnel, and now that gentle
man complains that two members of tho
sub-committee were ox-Con federates.
At the instance of the gentleman from
Maine a day had been appointed on
which tho eub-committee was to enter
upon its duties, and now tho gentleman
told the House be had learned, first, from
tho sub-committee that ho was tho party
to be investigated, and not tho Union
Pacifio Railroad. So far from that being
so, the first that he (Hunton) had heard
from any member of the House, or of the
committee, on the subject was from Mr.
Blaine himself, to the effect tho reso
lution offered by Mr. T.irbox. at-
touched to him, and that ho wanted
tho investigation commenced. On a giv
en day fixed the investigation had begun
and from that day to this every hour
that tho committeo could [devote to it
had been devoted to it, except when
the gentleman, himself, prevented
it. More than two weeks had been
lost to the committee, because of
the conduct of the gentleman from
Maine, and now that gentleman makes
the impression that it was the purpose of
the committee to prolong tho investiga
tion for some sinister purpose. He might
just as well have said that it was the
purpose of the committee to postpone it
till after tho 14th of June. Every mem
ber of tho committee had worked, in
season and oat of season, tilting on ono
occasion nearly the entire day, in order
to get through with the investigation
prior to the 14th of Juno. Every delay
that had occurred had been either be
cause the gentleman was absent or re
quested an adjournment.
In regard to tho Northern Pacific and
Kansas Pacific railroad investigation he
had told Mr. Blaine that tho committeo
would tako up firat tho matters which
touched him if ho desired. Mr. Blaine
had desired the committee to do so, and
yet he seemed very much surprised to
find that an investigation was to be un
devtaken by tho committee that involved
an examination into these Pacific roads,
and that it wa3 to bo prolonged and pro.
longed, while the committo had agreed
for his sake, and for his purpose, to skip
all other inquiry, under Mr. Lntterell’a
resolution, until the committee disposed
of that which seemed to attach to Mr.
Blaine.
Mr. Frye—DM not Mr. Blaine object
that under Mr. Luttroll’s resolution, the
committee had no jurisdiction of a stock
transaction between two individuals.
Mr. Hunton—I think it very likeiyho
did, and I think that if the question of
jurisdiction was left to Mr. Blaine, there
would be a great many questions ruled
out; but the committee had to decide the
question of jurisdiction for itself and I
had decided that it had jurisdiction.
Coming down to the Muligan matter,
Mr. Hunton spoke of Mulligan as a Bos
ton gentleman whoso character was un-
impeached and unimpeachable. Ho said
that Mr. Fisher had been asked the que3
tion on the stand, what sort of man
Mulligan was, and that tho reply was
substantially if not literally, that Mulli
gan was as good a man as he ever knew,
if not the best man ho ever kaew, and
Mr. Atkins, another witness, had made
substantially the same answer. Mr.
Mulligan had mentioned in the examina
tion certain letters, and tho mention of
these letters had seemed to have an im
mediate effect on Mr. Blaine who Imme
diately whispered to Mr. Lawrence to
move an adjournment, and Mr. Lawrence
had got np, with great solemnity on his
countenance, and said, ‘‘Mr. Chairman,
I am very sick." [Laughter].
Mr. Lawrence rose to explain.
Mr. Hunton—I hope the gentleman is
better to-day. [Laughter].
Mr. Lawrence—I ask my colleague
whether, when I went into the commit
tee room that morning, I didn’t say I
had been exceedingly sick. I was so
sick that it wa3 very difficult for me to
sit there, and about half-past twelve, at
the time the committee usually adjourn?,
I said I was quite unwell, and moved
that the committee adjourn. I have
been quite unwell ever since. [Laughter
on the Democratic side ]
Mr. Hunton—That is exactly as it oc
curred. The gentleman from Ohio came
in oa tho morning sick, but ho went to
work in tho most vigorous style, for two
hours, and when the letters came the
gentleman became sick again, and some-
body else became sicker. [Laughter.]
Mr. Lawrence—It ought to be eaid in
justice to Mr- Blaine that as to his indi
cating his purpose for mo to movo to ad
journ, it was cot because of any fear of
what was going on.
Mr. Hunton—I never intimated any
such thing. [Laughter.] Tho gentle
man is raising a war of straw just to
knock him over, but I do say that, after
these letters were mentioned incident
ally, the gentleman, on the suggestion of
Mr. Blaine, moved an adjournment, and
put it in on the ground that ho was sick.
An adjournment was had, as we did not
like to keep our colleague in misery and
distress. When Mr. Mulligan was put
on the stand next morning, he proceeded
to make a personal explanation.
Mr. Iluntcn here recounted Mulligan’s
explanation substantially, as has already
been printed.
Mr. Hunton, resuming, says who has a
right to complain, the gentleman from
Maine, or the committee of this Honse ?
Here was a witness summoned from
Boston, who did not appear as a volan
tary witness, but came under the com
pulsory process of the House. He was
entitled to the protection of the House.
This is a question which concerns
the House more than the committee. I
claim that, according to the well settled
principles of law, those letters belonged
to Warren Fisher from the time that he
received thsm until tho time he deliv- j
ered them to Mr. Mulligan, and from i
that time forth Mr. Mulligan was entitled j
to the ownership of them. Mr. Blaine
had
than
piece of my property.
Mr. Frye—Did not Mr. Blaine offer to
Esbmit these letters to be eramined pri
vately—and aid not Mr. Hunton say that
he would not examine them privately ?
over again, I don't want to see your cor
respondence, either publicly or privately
—I have got no right to see it. except as
a committee man, and those gentlemen
who sit on either side cf mo have the
same right as I have. I do not mean to
receive any papers which my colleagues
of the committee cannot see and inspect
with me. Then I had tho honor of an
invitation to Mr. Blaine’s honse to read
these letters; but I roplied m tho same
way—I have no right to go into your
house as a private citizen and read your
private correspondence. If I have
right to look at it all, it is as chairman of
the committee. If I have no right to
look at it in that way, I have no right to
lookatitat all, and I shall notdo it. It is
for the Honse to determine whether the
committee did right or wrong. If I have
erred, it has been an error of the judg
ment and I say to day that it is a job
that t never fancied.
Mr. Blame—Does the gentleman from
Virginia know of a dispatch received from
Josiah Caldwell in London ?
Mr. Hunton—My friend, the chairman
of the Judiciary Committeo will reply to
you in full on that subject.
Mr. Blaine—Then I ask you to state
whether, on Thursday morning last, tho
gentleman from Kentucky (Knott) did
not call you out of tho committeo room,
and acquaint you of that fact.
Mr. Hunton—If my friend from Ken
tucky does not answer you in full, I will.
Mr. Blaine (contemptuously)—Ah 1
And Now Mr. Knott Goes Tor Blaine.
Mr. Knott, of Kentucky, chairman of
the Judiciary Committee, said ho had
listened to imputations upon himself,
within the last two hours which, coming
from a different source, he might berhap3
answer very differently from the manner
in which he should now attempt to answer
them. Those who were intimately ac
quainted with him knew that was tho
last man in the world to seek a personal
controversy; and he assured the House
that, of all men in tho world, tho gentle
man from Maine (Blaine) was tho last
man with whom he would seek such a
controversy. That gentleman wa3 en
tirely too immense in his proportions.
Why, man, he doth bestride the world
like a colossus, and we petty men walk
between his huge legs and peep about to
find ourselves in dishonored graves.”
Personal controversy seemed to bo that
gentleman’s forte. He reminded him of
Homer's description of Diomede—
“ Diro was Ilia clans, and dreadful from afa -,
Tho armed Tydidos rushing to tho war.”
As a friend of his would say, tho gen
tleman was entirely too bumptious and
too usurptions for him. [Laughter on
tho Democratic side.) Two-thirds of tho
time tho gentleman was in the House ho
did not seem to realize whether ho was
Speaker or simply a member, and, to a
stronger, it would be an insoluble enigma
to know which he wa3. Tho gentleman
had quite unnecessarily lugged him
(Knott) into this personal matter of his
own. lathe first place, ho had insinua
ted that from some unworthy motivohe,
(Knott) aa Chairman of the Judiciary
Committee, bad appointed on the sub
committee, which had charge of these
investigations, the gentleman from Vir
ginia (Mr. Hunton) and the gentleman
from North Carolina (Mr. Ashe.) Iu
answer to that he had to say, first, that
either of those gentlemen was bi3
(Blaine’s) peer in any sense of the word,
and that in point of honor it was no dis
paragement to the gentleman from
Maine to say to say that they were his
superiors. [Hisses and other marks of
disapprobation from tho Republican
side.]
Me. Knott—That is all right; there
aro three kinds of animal3 in tho world
that hiss, vipers, geese and fools. [Laugh
ter].
In tho second place, this sub-commit
tee was selected long beforo there was
any insinuations, public or private, that
tho gentleman from Maine wa3 in any
manner implicated in any of the alleged
fraudulent transactions on the part of any
of these corporations, and it did seem to
me, when the gentleman flung his imputa-
tionas, a little strange that ho could as
cribe such motives to me, under the cir
cumstances. Even granting that the gen
tleman from Virginia and the gentleman
from North Carolina were his personal
enemies, it does seem a little remarkable
that you cannot touch one of thb30 rail
roads but the gentleman from Maine
wi'il squeal.
As to tho cable dispatch from Josiah
Caldwell, it is true that on last Thursday
morning I did receive a dispatch. The
gentleman from Maine (Blaine) seems
to know precisely tho hour at which I
received it, and its contents. He seems
thoroughly posted on the subject, but
permit cie to say, with regard to the in
sinuation, that that telegram ha3 not
heen suppressed— that any man, high or
low, whoever he may be, who will else
where mako such an insinuation will
havo to take the consequenaea. I hurl
the falsehood back into the teeth of any
man who makes a suggestion as to the
suppression of that dispatch. [Applause
on the Democratic side.] I received it.
I did not 6nppres3 it at all. In less than
thirty minutes after I received it I read
it to several gentlemen, but there was no
particular address in London from which
it purported to come and I did believe,
and urn net altogether certain yet that
it was not a fixed up job. [Murmurs of
dissent from the Republican side.]
The House refused to second the pre
vious question on Blaine’s resolution,
nqd it was referred to the Cqiaactteo cn
Judiciary, by a vote of 124 '
The Senate?
The committee on militarlfKirs re
ported adversely on tho House bill au
thorizing the Secretary of War to loan
camp equipage to the Mexican veterans
during their Centennial visit; also, ad
versely on tho bill for the relief of officers
and privates of the Arkansas Fourth Vol
unteer Cavalry; also, favorably on the
House bill retiring General W. H. Emory.
A new conference committee was ap
pointed on the diplomatic appropriation
Ail.
Tho Senate resumed the legislative
appropriation bill. The appropriation
for Indian commissioner wa3 restored,
and the Senate then adjourned.

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES.
Tho Mysterious Letters.
Washington, Jane 5. — The corres
pondence, fifteen letters in ail, covering
a period from 18G2 to 1873. Blame read
and commented on and explained as he
went along. He took the letter? as they
came to his hand, without regard to date
or snbject. Several of them were in ref
erence to a proposed settlement between
himself and Fisher. Some were in re
fusal of Fisher’s applications for money,
stating Biaine’s inability to comply with
the requests, but expressing readiness to
hare a complete and full settlement.
One was a relttion by Blaine of how
daring the Erst five weeks of his
Speakership, he had decided a point of
order which proved to be in the interest
cf the Little Rock and Fort Smith Eiil-
road Company without his knowledge,
however, that Fisher cr any of bis friends
wa3 likely to be benefitted thereby. In
regard to this letter his explanation went
into full particulars, including quotations
from the Congressional Globe. Another
had reference to tho contract for the
Spencer rifles. •
