Mr.. SUMMERS hoped that the House would
print the minority report, so that II gould at least
be seen before acted upon. 4
The discussion was gong on when Mr..
WHITE remarked that it was out of order.
A motion was then made to proceede to the
consideration of this report.
Mr.. VANCE thought that justice and human-
ty required that the House should give the day
to the consideration of private bills, and if this
regular order was to be departed from, he should
call the yeas and nays. The vote was taken,
and the House decided, by party vote, to con-
slider the subject now.
Mr.. SCHENCK moved it's postponement as
it was obvious that members could not act I'M
derstandngy upon the subject Mr.. s. stated
that the majority report gave Mr.. Jones his seat
by l52-the minority by ID only. Important
principles were involved in the reports.
The whole subject was then postponed until
Thursday next, with leave for Mr.. Bolts to be
heard in person; the testimony, which is volumi-
nous, is not to be printed.
LAND CLAIMS.
The House went into Committee of the Whole,
and resumed the consideration of the bill settling
old land claims in several of the Southern States.
This bill was laid aside to be reported, as was
also the bill to pay for horses lost by the Missouri
volunteers in the Florida war.
The committee then took up the Senate bill to
establish naval depot at Memphis. Tennessee,
and the discussion was kept up on this matter
until the hour of adjournment.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

Mr.. ADAMS asked leave to present memo
rial from citizens of the United States, who de-
sired the laws of naturalization to be so changed
that, hereafter, residence of twenly-one years
shall be requisite 10 enttle the foreigner to the
privilege of franchise.
Mr.. A. observed that he took this method of
presenting the prayer of the petitioners because
the subject was one which excited great interest
in the country; he desired to say, however, that
he did not himself concur in the prayer of the Pc
titioners, extending the time of acquiring citizen
ship to twenty-one years. He moved the refer
ence of the petition to the Committee on the Ju-
dietary.
Mr.. BROWN, of Ia, moved to lay the petition
on the table, upon which motion the yeas and

CONTESTED ELECTION.
Mr.. NEWTON, from the Committee on Elec-
tons, made minority report, in the case OF
Messrs. Jones and Bolts, declaring that John M.
Bolts has not been elected a raember of the 2Sth
Congress, and is not entitled to his seat. This
report was laid on the table, and ordered to be
printed.
Mr.. DROMGOOLE thought as two reports had
been made giving the seat to the same person,
there was no necessity for discussion, and that
the subject should at once be acted upon. ta

this city, was drowned on yesterday afternoon,

his juvenile companions; and in diving from a

stone or part Of the abutment of the bridge, and
sunk. His youthful companions, from fright,
were unable to render any assistance, or procure
aid until it was too late-the vital spark had fled.

~ MrDAar, & the Ohio Statesma,

u MrDAsY, e the Ohio Statesman,
in publishing table showing the present
complexion Of the Senate, says:
But, there is Iowa-thc young, the gay
bride Of the west, who has Just adopted
her constitution, Iaidl wiz send two Sens-
tors tQ Washington, a. soon, a.. admitted,
which will Be before the meeting Of the
next Congress, IN Dec. 1916. This will
settle the question as to the political char
acter Of the Senate, without much doubt.
The Cincinnati Gazette, in '.,ll ,allussion to
the same subject, speaks most desponding-
ly Of the prospect Of the Senate being
made democratic in its character BY the
admission Of Iowa. It says:
sit iFa general impression that the
wings have secured a majority Of the Sen.
ate beyond dispute. Not so. Even that
is not certain. We have, now sepenteen
members Of the Senate. Ten more are
required to make majority. Where are
they to come from? Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland,
Virginia, Tennessee, Ohio and Indiana.
Failure ip any one Of these States, would
leave the Senate equally balanced between
the two great parties--la tie. 1t will be
seen, therefore, that the whigs are not Ger
ta'" of a majority in the Senate, in the
present condition Of the Union. But if Eve
elect these Senators, there are the new
States Of florida and losca, with constitu-
tions ready formed, demanding Of Congress
admission into the Union, according to COM
pact. If admitted they win add four Loco
foco Senators to the number already in the
body, and leave the whigs III / minority.
Will these States be kept out? We have
little expectation ef.it. ps9a w
1t remains to be seen whether theinfiu,--
ence which the admission Of Iowa into the
Union is. thus likely to exert upon the
character Of the Senate is to be made a
pretext for opposing such admission. We
hope not; but short time will show.
