CeNGREss.-Iu the House Mon day, an anus
ing scene occurred during the attempt of General
Whitfelds friends to stave off q vote on MIR
Crows motion.
The Sergeant at arms was by order directed to
bring the absentees to the bar of the House.
Mr.. Jones, of Tennessee, inquired whether
while the Sergeantat arms was executing that or
der, those who had been here all the time could
not get their dinners. tLaughter)
The Speaker responded negatively
While the Clerk was calling the roll on motion
to adjourn, he was frequently interrupted by the
Sergeantat arms announcing the arrest and pro
duction of certain absentees. Several gentlemen
humorously moved to take up the criminal dock
ct.
The absentees brought before the House were
ordered to be discharged from arrest on payment
to the Sergeant-at-arms of fee of S. EACH
(Cries of 'fork over and laughter
Mr.. Mace among them, was willing to be dis
charged without payment of the fee and TO accept
as a substitute SOLITARY confinement" He went
home at 81 o'clock as every orderly man should,
leaving members here going ont and taking horn
and placing themselves in such 4 conditio ion that
they dii not know what they were driving at
Iaugbter)
Mr.. Trafton did not think the House should take
advantage of bis honesty. He had just returned
from dinner when the sergeant At arms opened the
door and let him in He had not been arrested.
Mr.. Lindley thought the fee cheap, and would
cheerfuily pay it.
Mr.. Houston-To those standing Sit down. I
want to see the prisoners.
Mr.. Cobb, of Georgia, would discharge them on
their giving pledge that they would hereafter
vote for an adjournment. Laughter
At quarter past seven the House adjourned by
one majority.
