In connection with Mr. Oglc's speech,
III following versificaiion Of extracts by
him from Public Documents has been
furnished for public atisn:
The Undersigned, Wing members Of
Congress, have had their attention cal.
led to a publication in the "GIobe" of
the 10Th July, 1910, under the caption
Of "Mes RS. Lincoln and Ogle," from
which the following extract is taken:
He (Mr. Liucoln) was no friend of Mr..
Van Buren,, but he would do him the Justice
to say IT there was any thing wrong in rela.
ton 10 the furniture Of the White House, the
President was not 10 blame for il. On the
contrary, he (Mr. L.) knew his great delicacy
on the subject, and would assure the gentle
man that, whenever the committee had con-
suited the President in relation to any addi.
tional furniture, he had invariably expressed
his reluctance to have any thing expended
for that object. He (Mr. L.) would state,
from his own knowledge, that not single
article of furniture supplied during the last
three years had been supplied at the request
were answerabc, and they would assume the
responsibility"
Tho undersigned do not undertake to
say whether MIR. Lincoln used the Ian
guage imputed to him by the Globe"
or not; but as he has pers.itted its publ
cation to remain ten days without public
contradiction, we presume that he now
adopts the language ascribed to him, if
he did not originally utter it. For the
purpose, therefore, Of placing the matter
truly before the country, and to correct
the gross misrep presentation Of facts con-
tanned in the above extract, the under
signed certify that they have carefully
examined the vouchers which have been
audited and settled by the Treasury De-
partment, for the purchase Of furniture
for the Presidents House since the 4th
of March, 1887, and that they have COM
pared the said vouchers with statements
Of the same in the published speech Of
Mr.. Ogle, and find the said vouchers
truly set forth in the speech
And they further certify that it appears
from the said vouchers that more than
eig hteen thousand dollars were expend-
ed in furniture for the Presidents House
between the 4th day Of March, 1887,
and the 9th day Of December, 1897, the
day on which the commmitte on Public
Buildings and Grounds was appointed, =,
and OF which Mr. Lincoln was chair
main [; the former Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds, having ceased
to exist on the Sd day Of March, 1887.
The undersigned further certify that
it appears from the SAID vouchers that
the said money was expended by the
agents of the President, viz. his son
Abraham Van Buren, II. l.. Smith, and
others, on warrants drawn by order of
the President of the United States him
self.
And the undersigned would further
state that the Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds have no control,
direction, or jurisdiction whatever in the
selection or purchase Of furniture which
the President may see proper to procure
by himself or his agents, when appro.
priations are made Tor that object by
law

The bill by him iniiOduccd in amendmen,
of the Militia Law. The bill was read
second time, a d passed with mn u
mendmenl suggested by Mr.. Simmons,
bi Johnston.
II The two Houses then joined and pro-
ceeded to complete the election Of civil
and military officers.
/ Edward +. Newton was elected Brig
adler General LIST Brigade-Wm. Swan,
| Col. LIST Regiment; Elenzer J. Read

Benz. Easton, Commissary General

tor; Inspector lst Brigade, Corneliss

VIM. ID. Lake.
The election being completed, the
Grand Committee separated.
Act in relation to Scituate Bank was
taken up.
Mr.. Atwell, one Of the commission n
ers Of the Bank, stated the facts with
in the knowledge Of the commissioner rs
The commissioners had made sale OF
stock of the bank sufficient to discharge
all demands against it. These demands
had been paid by the commissioners as
fast as presented, and were now nearly
all discharged. When discharged there
would be balance remaining in the
hands Of the commissioners.
Il. w. Dorr, Esq, the other, commits
sioncr, made sundry statements in addi-
ton 10 those Of MIR. Atwcll.
After some discussio the bill was
postponed to the next session.
On petition Of Peleg Rhodes and 9TH
ers w. Pawtuxet Turnpike Company,
voted, that tho further consideration
thereof be postponed to the next session.
On the petition of the Wickf I'd Bap-
tist Society, praying for an amendment
Of charter, &c.-volca the same be con.
tinued with an order of notice.
On the petition Of the New York,
Boston, and Providence Rail Road Co.
-ordered the same be continued with
an order Of notice.
1t was resolved unanimously, MIR Jack
son OF Providence in the chair,
That the thanks Of this House be pre-
sented to Hon. Henry Y. Cranston, for
the able and dignitied manner in which
he has performed the duties Of Speaker
Of this House during the present session.
On resuming The chair, the Speaker
responded to this resolution in very
handsome and appropriate speech
Feeling conscious, he said, that the dis
charge of the duties so politely referred
to in the resolution just passed, had been
very imperfect, owing to the severe in
disposition he had labored under during
the whole OF the session, it was not with
out the most grateful emotions that he
had listened to that resolution, assuring
him as it did, that his imperfect services
had not been unacce eptable to the House.
1t was then resolved that all unfnish-
ed business lying before tho General
Assembly be postponed to the next ses-
sion, and that the General Assembly do
now adjourn to the Saturday preceding
the last Monday in October, then to
convene at the State House in Bristol.
His Excellency and the Senate CON
curing, the General Assembly ad-
ourned.

and Liberties, requested them to decide
the question Let every man vote his
honest opinion" says the aspirant with
a loud voice-the subalterns answer
in whispers she soldier that opposing
shall die" Again the address says,
"we should watch with slccpless vigi-
lance over our national honor, cherish
ing at the sume time, and acting OIL the
conviction they can in no way be SO
efectually guarded as by invariably
doing justice to othcrs." Does Mr..
Kendall, and all the opponents of Gen.
Harrison "wutch with sleepless vigi-
lance the national honor" when they
declare his glorious achievements in the
cnuse Of his country as "dishonorablc
defeats" and "inglorious victories. -
Is it doing "justice to others" when the
hard earned laurel Of the aged soldier
is torn from his brow, and ridicule alike
poured upon his dwelling and his food
II indeed it he "national honor" to dis
grace the men who fought until victory
crowned their efforts with success, or
if it be ".justice" thus to SANDER, ridi-
.cule and abuse the men our fathers
"delighted to honor" let the Demo-
cratic Kendall, his President, their min
ions and expectants enjoy it.
