mission to present report on the part OF
the managers appointed by the Senate to
conduct the conference with managers on the
part of the House of Representatives, in re-
lation to their disagroeing votes on the ad'
mission of Kansas.
Mr.. Stuart made point of order against
the presentation of the report. TIE Kan
sas bill was now in possession of the House,
and it was not competent for the Senate to
receive report on the same unit! the
House had returned the bill to the Senate.
Upon this question protracted discussion
arose, which was participated IN by Messrs.
Green. Stuart, Biggs, Broderick, Hunter,
and Seward, at tho conclusion OF which the
Senate decided to receive the report.
Mr.. Broderick having charged during the
discussion that the Kansas bill had been sur.
repti.iously taken from the House and brought
into the Senate, Mr. Green, on rising to make
bis report explained that he had sent for the
bill for the purpose Of verifying its number
and of insuring accuracy III any al!usion he
might make to the same. Aludng TO the
bill reported by the Committee OF Conference,
he remarked that it might not come up TO
the expectations Of any body, but was per-
haps the best that could be had under the
circumstances Jt had heen conceived in n
snirit Of mutual concession and COMPROMISE
between the two Houses, without involving a
sacrifice OF principle on the part of either.
The bill was then read, after which MIR.

committee. briefly stated his objections to the
measure. which we're. in the first place, that
it practically involved re-submission of the
Lecompton Constitution. which had already
been reiected nv the people of lusas Sec
