 It is with DO little regret that we have to re- cord one of the most dsgraceful transactions it has ever been our hap to witness in the terrl- tory, and to herald to the world the nfamy of a majority of the members of the present legis- lature. The facts, from which we leave the public to judge, are as follows:
 The House went into committee of the whole yesterday morning. on joint resolution for the election of public printer. bill had been pre- vously introduced, for the relocation of the capital, and a motion to suspend rules and put 1t through without delay, had been announced on the part of its friends. To consume time, when the House went into committee of the whole on the printing resolution, several gentlemen who are opposed to the removal of the capital spoke against time; thus preventing a motin for the rising of the committee At this the speak CT and his friends-a majority of the House, and the same men who voted for the Delegate Resolution"-become much exasperated, and withdrew from the House; the minority-thir- teen in understanding in committee.
 Speaker Decker and his friends came down to the Douglas House, and, in caucus, decided to break up the committee and get the chair, at all hazards, the speaker declaring that he would have 1t, or die. It Is even rumored that the speaker and several of his friends armed them selves with revolvers. The chief clerk of the council was found and pursuaded to take mes sage to the House. On a message from the council being announced-the House being still in committee of the whole, NIT. Thrall in the chair and Mr. Clayes having the hoor-.an in- quiry was made as to whether the council was in session, and the clerk replying that that body was not in session, rule in J Jetferson's Manual was cited, showing that no message should be received unless both the houses were in session: on which the chairman informed the clerk that his message could not be received, and Mr. Clayes proceeded with his remarks. At this iuncture, Mir. Decker, who, with his friend, had returned to the House, started for the speakers chair, and snatching the gavel from the hand of the chairman, raised 1t in a thratening manner at the same time ordering Thrall to leave, re- marking that he would take possession of the chair or die. Mir. Murphy, on seeing the speaker in the act of assaulting Dr. Thrall, interfered and endeavored to wrest the gavel from his hand, when a pretty general melee ensued creating nice scene of confusion, which, in the expressive language of an eyewitness, would "almost make one think that h--ll had given a holiday and turned all the devils loose in the Nebraska legislature" Several members pitched in," and it is said that the speaker would have been pretty roughly handled had it not been for the timely assistance of Mir Hans com, who happened to be within the bar, in rolling him under the table, without even wait ing to "suspend rues.''
 Dr. Thrall still kept the chair, and succeeded in restoring order. Mir. Claycs went on with his speech speaker Decker and his friends left the House without getting possession of the chair by force and at length the committee rose, the members present elected aspeaker pro tenn, and adjourned till the usual hour this morning
 It should be remarked that the lobby was crowded during the melee, and that no disposi- tion to interfere was manifested; and as soon as partial order was restored, every man in the lob by, at the request of Mr. Morton, of Otoe, left the room.
 The House met this morning at the usual hour; the reading of the journal was dispensed with, and a motion to ad djourn to Florence was made and carried, on which the majority, with drew, leaving the minority, who elected Mr. Poppleton speaker pro tenn, and adjourned un- til tomorrow morning. The clerk of the House, understanding his business fully, refused to move the journals minutes, and other papers. but kept the same here at the capital
 About half-past ten o'clock this moraing, MT. Reeves, in the council, moved that that body also adjourn to Florence. The president, Dr.. Miller, very properly refused to entertain the motion; thereupon MT. Reeves put the motion himself, for which act it is to be regretted that he was not promptly arrested by the sergeant at-arms.
 The reason of Dr. Miller's refusal to enter fni ha, .lu .lz not adjourn under the organic law, without the joint action of the two Houses and the official action of the Governor An appeal was taken from the decision, and sustained by the majority. The president still firmly refusing the question, MT. Reeves, of Otoe, arose in his place and put the question. which was declared by the presi dent to be informal, and out of order; but re- gardless of that, the majority withdrew from the council chamber
 Gov. Cunning has issued an order for keepino the journals minutes, etc., of the council also a the capital
 The greatest excitement prevails, and numer- ous are the conjectures as to what will be done. II the withdrawing members-twenty one in the House, and eight in the councl-assemble at Florence, the Governor will not, and cannot. recognise their acts. In the meantime, those members of each House remaining here, will as semble at their respective rooms, and, not hav- ing aquorum present, will adjourn from day to day.
 It should be remarked, that Florence is a very appropriate place for these revolutionists to meet. They sustain the election frauds per- petrated at that delectable town in August last and are in most respects fit subjects to be under the protection and control of Brigham Young and his satellites If Brigham Young should condescend to deliver to them message. we shall endeavor to lay the same before our readers
 But after all, we are not much surprised that men who can fritter away nearly whole ses- sion of the legislature in foolish agitation of l subjects over which they have 10 control, on
