HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

Mr.. k5iCHOLS made personal explanation re
specting his vote for Mr. Banks as Speaker. 1t was
called forth by recent speech, by his colleague, Of
Hamilton, Ohio He denied that the printing and
binding question influenced his vote against hs col
league and for Mr.. Banks.
Mr.. CAMPBELL Ohio disavOwed having intended
to caet the least imputaton Mr.. Ncholss tegrty,
but at the time, he believed the Printing ques-
ton delayed the organization of the House.
Mr.. READY asked questions Of Mr. Campbell in
reference to what the latter had said at Hamilton
about South Americans in connection with the Speak
crship.
Mr. CAMPBELL replied that no formal proposition
was made by members of that party but ii was suS-
gested to him privately by persons not pretending to
represent it, that if he would consent to ndOrse the
twelfth section of the Philadelphia platform, the proba-
billty was that lie would acquire strength for the
Spe akership from that quarter.
Mr. MORGAN objected to further explanation, aud
the Senates bill to remit duties on goods wares and
merchandise destroyed by fire was taken up.
The Houie rcconsidered ITS action overriding the
decision OF tho hair that the bill did not make an APP
preparation, - not therefore required te b re-
ferred to the Committee of the Whole.
The decision of the Chair then sustained by hve
majority and after unsuccessful motion to mtke
the bill special order, it sent to the COMMITTEE
of the Whole on the State of the Union.
The Senate bill amendaOry of the act establishing
the Chcuit Court of California passed. Adjourned.

Mr.. HAMIIN introduced bill to incorporate the
Atlantic and Pacific National Union Railroad Company.
He said the bill had been sent TO him by an indi-
vidual whom he did not know, with request that
should be offered as a substitute for all other Pacific
Railroad bills but as he did not think proper to do
that, be introduced it a separate bill, and moved its
reference to the Pacific Railroad Special Committee.
He read some extracts from a letter accompanying
the BILL in which its author says it is the most import
ant bill presented in Congress since the adoption
of the American Constitution, and whatever party viii
fist adopt il will be to succeed in the Presidential
campaign.
Tie reading Of the extracts stoned much laugh

In reviewing this whole affair. the thought is
