HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

Inc JOuIndl OF yesterday StatlnB tnaL Mr. J. ".
Adams was called to order for g offensive re-
marks" Mr.. A. desired the correction made, as
it was for " irrelevancy" he was called to order
The journal was amended so as to state the
particulars of the call to order.
Mr. FRENCH, Of KY, took occasion to set
himself right in matters wherein the newspapers
Of the morning had misstated his remarks.
SLAVERY.
The unfinished business was the joint resolu-
tion of last winters (Democratic) Massachusetts
Legislature in reference to slave representation.
Mr.. ADAMS desired to be heard Five men,
bers on the other side had been heard by cour-
tesy of the House, and he asked similar privi-
lege.
A variety Of objections and questions were
raised from different quarters.
Mr.. J. r. INGERSOLL endeavored to get in
resolution making the subject the order Of this
day, as it was one of great importance but the
resolution was crowded down. Finally, mo-
ton was made to suspend the rules, so as to
allow Mr.. A. leave to speak The yeas and
nays were called, and by large vote of two
thirds, Mr. A. had leave to address the House,
which he did, in mastery review of the pro-
ceedings of this body since he first attempted to
discharge his duty in presenting the petitions in
his possession, In the course of his remarks,
he yielded for explanations from Messrs. French
of KY, and Holmes Of S. C. Mr.. A. concluded
his remarks with the affirmation that he had
spent his life in supporting the Constitution of
the United States, and should continue so to do
for the brief remainder Of his days, and that he
could see nothing Indicative Of a contrary pur-
pose in the presentation Of the resolutions of the
Legislature OF his State, proposing an amend
ment Of this Constitution. e. sa
Mr.. HOLMES desired leave to speak, but af-
forwards withdrew the request.
Mr.. GIDDINGS desired leave to make brief
explanation A motion 10 suspend the rules, to
allow Mr.. G.. to speak, was taken by yeas and
nays and was rejected by Sd to 70.
Mr.. BELSER, of Ala, then moved 10 lay the
resolutions Of the Massachusetts Legislature
upon the table; and upon this motion the yeas
and nays were called, and stood, ayes GA, noes
104--so this motion was lost.
Mr.. BEARDSLEY then moved the reference
of these resolutions to select committee OF nine,
and this motion was agreed to.
Mr.. ADAMS finished the presentation Of his
petitions, and thanked the House for allowing
him to do so.
A great number OF petitions were then pre-
sented, and the States were called through.
Among the petitions were many praying for
a I" reduction of POSTAGE and in one, presented
by Mr.. CARROLL of N. ", the petitioners
state that it costs little more to carry letter
from Geneva to some other place, two hundred
miles distant, than it does to carry barrel OF
flour the same distance.
Several Executive communications were re-
ceived and referred.
On motion, the House adjourned to meet again
on Tuesday next at IL o'clock.
