The MARYLAND CONTESTED ELECTION CAsE-We
learn from Washington that the committee on elections
in the House of Representatives have decided against
Mr. j. Morrison Harrss right to the seat contested by
Mr.. VIM. Pickney White, of Baltimore, for the
third congressional district of Maryland The report of
Mr. White it will be recolected contested Mr.. Harris
seat on account of the alleged great frauds upon the bal
lotbox at some of the wards in this city correspon-
dent writes from Washington on the subject as fol-
lows:
House on Tuesday next that Mr. Harriss was not legal
ly elected with resolution declaring the seat vacant
and requesting the Speaker to issue his warrant for
election for representative in the Third Congress
sonal District of Maryland.
The decided action of the majority Of the House in the
Ohio contested election case is thought to present
strong indction that the House will sustain the report
of the committee and pass the resolution presented by
them.
