and advocated the passage of the bill He had been m-
lar with the for years. and he satisfied that the
claim Just and equitable he said that the sena
tor from Wisconsin had fallen into some errors IN his state
ment The price Of the machine SIX hundred dollars
instead Of sixteen hundred and Mr. Moore thought inn
proyements might be made in the mode Of manufacture
which would reduce the price TO four hundred dollars The
cost Of the machine arises from its combining reaper and
a threshng machine and farmer has 10 give two or
three hundred dollars for threhng machine alone and
to have eight horses work il Moore Hascas machine
only requires twelve horses 70 work IL instead OF sixteen
as stated by the from Wisconsin Tie said that all
that the bill proposed to do 10 give Moore Hascall
the benefit Of their inventions and improvements and
the matter should be examined it would be that
Hussey inventor of something valuable Moore
Hascal also inventors of valuable improvements but
of those who TO the Worlds Fair and carried on

regard null and void any action Of Congress which shall
repeal the restriction existing upon the introduction
Of slaves into the proposed Territories OF Nebraska and
