Communication would be adopted.
Mr. MORGAN also advocated the report, and
remarked upon the great abuses which prevailed IN
the various Departments in the disposition OF the

the Treasury, disclosed the fact that sio0S were
expended for newspapers and periodicals. Mr. 5
also enumerated several items of similar magnitude
and improperly.
The morning now having expired, tho House
went into Committee OF the Whole upon
THE GENERAL APPROPRIATION BILL.
Mr. BRIGGS was called TO the Chair.
Mr. WOOD rose to speak upon the bill. He
moved an amendment to the second clause.
The CHAIR said he mus, conhne his remarks TO
the amendment; and then
Mr. WOOD, for the purpose Of getting wider
field for debate, moved TO strike out the enaeiins
clause.
The CHAIR said this motion was not in order
the bill must first be read, item by item, and
anne ailments might be offered, but it was not in
order to move to destroy the bill, which was DONE
in fact, by taking away the enac,ing clause.
From this decision an appeal was taken by
Mr. WOOD, and the appeal was supported by
Messrs. CLIFFORD, PROFIT, POPE, and
UNDERWOOD, and opposed by Messrs.
ADAMS and HOPKINS.
Telers were then appointed, and the decision Of
the Chair was sustained by vote OF 70 to SO.
