l
his views on the subject, be had a perfect
right to do so.
Mr.. lIaskin gave his reason why he
should vote against the report, and briefly
vindicated the remaining anti-Lecompton
Democrats. The submission of the Con-
stitution in the way proposed, was of a
thimble rigging character, and an attempt
to reach by indirect action, what the South
should attempt directly. 1t was because
he wanted TO see the Democratic party tri-
umphant in 1860; that be was against
the passage of the bill, and twelve or thir-
teen anti-Leeompton Democrats would op-
pose it to the end. TIE demand for the
previous question was seconded. Voices,
now we'll have vote, order, take your
seats, &c., During the roll call the House
was unusually quiet. Before the vote
was announced the Speaker requested that
there be no demonstrations of applause or
dissatisfaction. The result on adopting
the Kansas report was yeas ll2, nays 1O3.
Applause followed, accompanied with
hisses.) The Speaker said there were as
sistant door-keepers in the galleries who
would take the disturbers of the House
into custody. The following is vote on

Mr.. English moved to reconsider the bill
by which the vote was agreed to, and TO
lay that motion on the table.
Mr.. Washburne, of ILL.,, demanded the
yeas and nays.
Mr.. Campbell asked him to withdraw
the demand, as, it was fighting after the
battle was over.
Mr. Washburne-Not withdraw; the
battle is not over, and will fight to the
end of time.
Mr.. English, motion was agreed to by
l13 to1OO.
Mr.. Clark, of N. Y, made statement
On behalf of Messrs. Haskin and Cox, say
ing the former withdrew any imputation
he may have cast on the personal integrity
Of Mr.. Cox, who cheerfully accepted Mr..
Haskin's explanation.
A message was received from the SEN
ate with the announcement of the concur
renee of that body in the report of the
Committee of Conference on the Kansas
question.
The House adjourned till Monday.
SENATE-Mr. Doolittle, of Wisconsin,
'ead from the Secretary of Gov. Geary's
history of Kansas, to show, in reply TO the
emarks of Mr.. Pugh yesterday, that the
population has diminished from the deeds
If violence committed. II
Mr.. Pugh replied, after which Mr.. Sew
lrd took the floor. He objected to the
Conference report, because it presented a
alse issue to The people. The true ques-
ion at issue is the submission of the Con-
titution direct to the people. The ques-
ion of public lands has nothing to- do with
hat, inasmuch as lands are the dowry of
il new States. The land question does
ot occupy one line of the eighteen hun
red quarto pages of the Kansas debate: !,
is therefore feigned issue. Beside, the J
uestion of Conference is equally new, dat
lg only from the Conference, viz: that
Aansas has enough population for Slave
tate. Further he objected to the bill, be-
ause it bears equivocation on its face. 1t :
urports to be submission of her dowry, '
ut it submits the Lecompton Constitution, t
nd it is so regarded by Democratic press r
5. Thus indirectness and equivocation Q
re on the bill, and double entendres in t
'gislation are an immortality. Moreover, b
you make slave barrier across this lati- t
lde of 46, you interpose barrier to pro- L
ress more insurmountable than the Rocky s
or tho Sierra Nevada. 1t a
nused him when he heard patriotic t
len talking of removing the Capitol v
you confne slavery within its true lin a
5. the Capitol Of the nation may remain. d
