Difficulty the House OF Reps.

A Washington letter gives the following
particulars Of toe d ffaulty in the llou5e Oh
Friday, during the debate or the report OF
the Kansas Conference Committee:
MIR. Trippe explained his reason f)r vol
ing for a postponement in opposition TO the
majority of his party in a manly and sens'-
bic speech, indicating his personal lnoepeu-
depce. MIR. Hill wished to make similar
explanation, but MIR. Gartrel, also OF usof-
gia, objected. ,,.,
"Wfo ohjects?" inquired Hill, turning
toward him.
81 object" replied Gartrell, turning his
head in very naughty manner.
where is your graveyard" exclaimed
Hill, rushing st him with great fury.
He was intercepted, however, aud Gartrell
merely said, eve will talk of graveyardS
esew here"
THE Speaker called upon the Sergeant-at-
Arms to conduct Hill to his seat, and order
was soon restored in the Hall.
A scene also occurred il the Senate on this
subject.
Mr.. Green rose to make a report from the
Conference.
Mr.. Stuart objected, on the ground that
the bill itself was not in the possession OF the
Senate, but i'll the House.
Mr. Green arrogantly objected to this 10
tervention.
While Mr.. Stuart was on the floor, the bill
was brought over from the House and quiet
ly laid on Mr.. Green's desk.
MIR. Broderck Immediately rose and said
that be was informed by member OF the
House that the bill had been surreptitlously
obtained from the Clerks Office and sent to
the desk of the Senator from Missouri
MIR Green inquired if the Senator charged
that he had eptitiously obtained the bill
Mr.. Broderck replied that he stated the
fact that it had been surreptitiously procured
Subsequently, after remarks by others, Mr.
Green again got the floor and said that the
bill had been brought to him to compare data
with his report. A very remarkable colncl-
depce, but it did not mislcad anybody.
| MIR. Broderick answered that he had been
informed by Mr.. Harris, OF Illinois, that the
bill had been improperly obtained, aud that
