POLITICAL DISCUSSION. -Ilon. j. Morrison
Harris and VIM. p. Preston, Esq. the former
the the American and the latter the Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress held political
discussion on Friday last. From the speech
of Mr.. Harris we make the following extracts.
His competitor had charged that the Amer
icars in Congress had shown disposition to
affiliate with the Black Republican patty be-
cai>e Mr.. Preston averlcd that they often vo-
ted on the same side with them. This Mr.
Harris said was undoubtedly true of his Amer
lean associates in the House, and also true Of
many of the honest democrats also. for the
Republican members sometimes offered rcso-
tons for select committees to ferret out the
corruption aud cnormites Of the printing
business and the gross ouiages in our naval
contracts and the Americans were very glad
10 vote it'll them to bring 10 light these ini-
quitics which, be it remembered, the bulk Of
the democrats Of the House always voted to
suppress 1t was simply absurd Mr.. Harris
SAID. to charge any utilization with the Re
publicans on that ground and that it was not
possible for the gentleman to show any single
case in either the J4th or 35th Congress
where the Americans had done any such
thing. even in the most remote manner, or
iiaa '"'itu 10 MAINTAIN h'Sh, consistent and
answering national position.
