I Reports. By Mr.. Buckmaster, of the
minority of the committee on the New
/ Jersey case, justifying the course of Con-
gress ID that case, presented a paper pur-
| porting to be report OF the chairman oil
! the conmlttee," but not setting forth that
it was (as in fact it was) a report Of the
minority of the committee. Mr.. Buck
master moved that the paper be received
as a report: MIR Rice of Somerset moved
to lay this motion on the table Mr. Beard
/ (of the eomminee) said thai this paper had
| been presented and read by its author 10 the
| committee, and that an invitation, from
one of the committee, to have it laid before
] them for examination and consideration
had been refused. He was against re-
ceiving it, until it could come up in a
proper shape Messrs Rice of S., Kins,
! man, Buckmaster and Villas, supported
| the motion to lay on the table and Messrs.
Beard, Lille, Sabin, Chandler OF w,
Hebard. Hodges. Warner of n, Cuts.
Warner of b. and Cleveland, opposed
both this motion: and the reception of the
pa per, until presented ia the usual form
of a minority report. The motion Of MIR
Rice Of Somerset was rejected, 1873 to 62.
| Mr. Villas moved that the paper be read.
I and called for the ayes and boes-rejected,
144to So. The question then recurred
upon receiving the paper Mr. Bard called
for the ayes and noes :. he said the paper
was an ilIegitimate one. and the author Of
it might as we'll have presented alast
years almanac. MIR Buckmaster said he
! understood that the conmlttee had con-
scented to receive this paper as minority
report. Mr. Swift (of the committee,) said
| he did not so understand it, and that on
the other hand, it had been suggested in
the committee that it would be altogether
improper 10 present the paper in lis present
shape Mr. Rice of S. said he did not
consider the paper as coming in a proper
] shape, but as the House had refused to
lay the motion Of reception on the table,
that il might come up properly, he should
vote to receive it now. Mr. Chandler of
W., said be was against receiving the pa
per on the sole ground that it was wrong
In form. Mr. Villas thought that if the
paper was not now received, and permit
ted to lie until the report Of the majority
| came In, Ii could never come before the
House. After further discussion BIZ
Messrs B lckmaster, Beard, Warren Of N,
and CooIidge. (who suggested that there
was not the slightest difficulty in this case,
/ if the author OF the paper would retain the
paper In his own possession, or leave ia thu
hands of friend, until a majority could
present report,) the motion to receive
! was negatived; ayes 80, noes l49. Mr..
/ Beard then asked leave for the committee
on this subject to sit during the sitting of
the House--granted Mr.. FuIlamm NOV
! ed to reconsider the vote, rejecting the pa
per above named, aud also TO lay this mo-
ton on the table-the design being to
leave The way open for It's reception as
a minority report, when the majority shall
have reported-agreed to. "
