This rrport when il was presented 10 tho Committee

Of the Commitiee. Messrs Lincoln Of Massachusetts,,
and Canpbel Of s Carolina yet this report went out
as authentic and appealed 10 by tbs party IN con-
tradc,on the statements Of The minority Of the Com
nttee
The hour or the consideration OF resolutions having
expired, on motion Of Mr. Cambreeng, the House pro-
ceeded 10 the orders OF the day.

The House went into COMMITTEE Of the whole. (Mr.
HAYsEs 10 the char) and resumed The consideration Of
the ball to postpone the fourth instament Of tbs depo-
sites directed 10 he made with the States, under the
18th section Of the Deposito Act.
Mr. CAMBRELENG made some statements IN ex-
plsnaiion OF the condition Of the Treasury.
Mr. UNDERWOOD, spoke, at length, in opposition
to the bill.
Mr.. PlCKENS moved TO amend the bill, so as TO
postpone the instsment till the LIST Of January, 1889,
instead OF posiponing il indefinitely
Mr. DUNCAN spoke ia support Of the bill
Mr. GARLAND, OF Va after bneAy referring TO
some Of the other alluded In debate, and
particularly to The Subtreasury BILL in opposition TO
which, be should. he said, ct proper tme urge some
Arguments which TO him appeared conclusive proceed
ed give his views IN regard 10 the bill before the
House. There was some difficulty, arising from the
confused statements OF the Report Of the Secretary Of
the Treasury, ascertaning whether the Government
required this money But he had come to the conclu-
sion that it did need the money, and he could not hes
tate as the choice between Withholding this money
which belonged TO the Government, and supplying the
deficiency BY further tar upon the consumers. We
were bound place that degree Of confidence in the
officers Of the Government, as TO act upon the suppo-
silion that their statements correct The Govern
ment, then, wanting the money, aud having right to
it, he could do no otherwise than give his assent to
their taking It,
NJ BIDDLE commended that the statements Of the
Secretary Of the Treasury vague and unsatisac-
tory and that we could not depend upon those gentle
men around us who had undertaken to cypher out the
condition Of tho Treasury, Amidst these conflicting
statements he could find nothing upon which TO rest his
vote against this bill Mr.. b spoke at considerable
length on the subject
The Committee then rose, and
Tho House adjourned.

We are not unmindful Of the feelings that
ultra partizans indulge towards us. Some
denounce us with reckless disregard Of
truth. Some doubt us with significant inuen-
does, and some affect to regret our course
The motive Of all is the same, it is either to
crush us under the tyranny Of absolute party
discipline which tolerates no independence
Of thought and no freedom of action, or by
doubling our fidelity, to hunt US down with
the cry Of q traitor in the camp" To all
such, whether welding the influence Of the
press, the power Of Office, or mere ibellers
without honor and without responsibility, we
tell them, that we have placed ourselves upon
che ancient principles Of the Republican, par
ty, the principles Of jefferson and Madison,
and as far as principles go to form classi6-
cation Of parties, there are we to be found
We claim the right that belongs to freemen,
the right Of opinion, and we will never sur
render this invaluable birth-right to the fac
tious biddings of demagogue intolerance
This has no terrors for us. Our ambition
and our range are above the tribe. We shall
perform our duty, guided by the purest die
tates Of patriotism. When we fail to come
up to our professions, then let good men de-
nounce and shun us but whilst we work
faithfully to the letter Of our covenant, we
dread not the verdict Of our country.
If there is to be found in society one set Of
beings more odious than all others, it is the
ignorant, prejudiced, political slave, whose
vision is bounded by the narrowest confines
Of party, to which every attribute Of mind,
every aspiration Of honor, and every regard
for consistency are made to yield. Real love Of
country, regard for the peace and harmony
Of society, the sympa.hies and the charities
Of life, belong not to these blind zealots, and
notwithstanding the veil Of their hypocrisy is
too thin to cover them, they have the temerity
to fix the standard Of orthodoxy, and to ostra-
else all those who depart from it. The timid
may cover under their lash, and may deceit
fully say amen, when in their hearts there is
no such response; but we should be traitors to
a noble inheritance if VIC did not defy and
despise them.

VIRGINIA.

From the formation Of the government, this great
State has held, and welded, moral influence
which has been respected by all her sister states and
felt throughout the country The part she acted in the
great drama Of the Revolution, while il for her
character Of exalted patriotism imposed upon her, in all
after times, the obligation to maintain it. She will not
now, trust, violate the plghted faith and that cha
racter, when the most pressing emergency calls upon
her to redeem il and maintain it.
She is now called upon by Executive recommends

opposition in 1884, was countenanced only by less than
one-thrd Of that party, and universally denounced by

In speaking Of Mr.. PATRONS speech the
other day, we might have observed that that
gentleman will be found advocating the same
doctrines in 1887 in regard to the State Banks,
that he urged with so much force in 1874
Like many Of his able colleagues from Vir-
GINA, he sees no reason, in. these times of
difficulty and embarrassment, to exchange
views which were then considered orthodox,
for those which were at that time advocated
by his antagonists, and denounced by the cor
acles" as " disorganizing and revolutionary"

FLORIDA WAR
The House resumed the consideration Of the rcsolu-
ton offered yesterday, by Mr. WISE, for the appoint
nent by ballot OF Select Committee to investigate the
causes Of the origin Of the Florida War; and Of its de-
lays and failures with power to collect information,
and leave to sit during the recess
Mr.. H0LSEY. Of Ga, spoke at great length. in
ply those gentlemen who had ani,nadvertcd upon the
conduct Of the war, and pronounced that il dis
graceful to our arms and 10 justice. Mr. H. con-
tended that though the had been disastrous had
not been dsgracefnl and that the sympathies manifest
ed for the hostile Indians here were ill-founded.
Mr.. CUSHING replied, in an eloquent strain Of re-
mark, the injustice Of employing savages as al
lies IN this He suggested to the mover (Mr. Wse)
the cxpedency Of striking the clause directing that
the Committee be appointed by baof With this mod
hcaon there would be opposition to the resolution
Mr.. WISE said he could not modify il in the man
ner proposed, without defeating the investigation He
would boldly and with candor stake his for pro-
posing that this Committee should he appointed by ball
