Mr.. Bigler said he intended to make
no issue with The report of the Com,

political parties were to bring their con.
troversics. If members of the Legsla.

in dirty water. let them wash themselves
before they come here.
Mr.. Bigler supposed his proposition
was so reasonable that there could be no
objection to it.
Mr.. Seward stated The reason that
Cameron made no reply, was, that he
acted on the ADVICE of his personal polili-
cal friends. Resolution Of the Commi-
tee then adopted.
Mr.. Benjamin reported resolution
that all parties TO contested election in
Indiana, take testimony for a Judiciary
tribunal in that State.

After spirited discussion, Mr.. Fitch
was called to order by the Chairman for
personal remarks, but Fitch resuming SAID
he had right to complain, because he
said the capacity in which the Senator
had heretofore acted had prejudged this
case.
On motion, Mr.. Trnmbull ordered the
credentials of Messrs. Bright and Fitch,
together with papers on file, relative to
their election as Senator, be referred to
