HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
Several resolutions calling for information
from public Offices, which information has
been included in acquisitions already made,
or Is no longer thought necessary, were taken
up IN pursuance of the new rule of the house,
read over, and, on motion, laid on the table.
On motion fNIr. Mccoy, the house agreed
To- consider the resolution by him submitted
on Friday last, for the adoption of a rule that
no petition for a claim of any description shall
be received, unless accompanied by evidence.
showing that the claim had been made at the
proper department, and disallowcd, and sta.
ting the reasons Of such dsallowance
Mr.. MCCOY supported the resolution. He
thought any person who was acquainted with
the laborious duty imposed upon the Com
mittee of Claims, would see a strong reason
for adopting 1t. Probably one third part of
their business consisted in the investigation of
papers which might, with greater propricty,
ny referred to the departments. 1t was not,
IN his opinion, asking too much of the claim
ants TO require of them that their claims
should be first submitted to this previous tri-
bunal He thought nne-tenths Of the whole
number might he settled there, without af-
forwards troublingt the Committee or the House
with their further consideration. He also be-
lieved that such reference would be sauta-
ry IN the prevention and detection of frauds
aud imposltions upon the government. In
the case of private land claims, the proper ev-
ldence TO support or repel the claim could be
investigated and settled in a better and surer
manner at the Land Office than it possibly
could be by being brought into this House.
After some opposition TO The resolution, Mr.
McCoY remarked that he perceived strong
current in the house against his resolution
which he should mt be able to resist. From
Difference, therefore, to the sentiment of the
house although without abandoning his own
he would withdraw the resolution.
