The Speaker desired to say the parliament
tary usage was to name on the Committee
the mover of the resolution under which the
Committee was ordered to be formed. He
had omitted to name Mr.. BoTELER at that
gentleman's own request. He had endeavor-
ed to appoint the Committee to the best OF
his judgment, and at the earliest period, in
view of the important business with which
the Committee was entrusted.
Mr.. HAWKES., of Florida, asked to be ex-
cused from serving, giving his reasons. Mr.
CocHRANE, of N. Y, made an eloquent ap-
peal to him to throw aside his objections and
act. The House adjourned before taking a
vote on the question.
