Mr. MORTON presented communication from Hon.
D. L. Yoee, addressed to The Senate OF the United States,
requesting 10 be afforded opportunity be heard upon
the question OF ;he contested election 10 which he u
party, and giving the reasons why he deems that the re-
port OF the select committee on that subject does not
rive decision as to the merits OF the case
The Clerk commenced reading the document, and bad
proceeded to some length; when
who writes that letter in entering into discussion OF
the subjectmae which has been referred TO the special
committee and the question u not now before the Sen.
ate, think Il IL very unnecessary that our time should
be consumed by the reading OF IT, The letter commences
with application to the Senate TO be allowed 10 be
heafd 10 person when the Senate shall proceed 10 the
consideration of the matter; then Immediately follows
an argument showing that the report OF the committee ~
wrong, both in point of fact and in point Of construction

the matter with great proprety should be perfectly
willing either to hear the gentleman speak his argument
or TO hear II reads but do not think that al this late

therefore, that the further reading OF the communication
be dispensed WITH and that be laid upon the table and
printed for the use OF the Senate. ~
