Seldom is a more exciting witnessed The Iegp
laye halls than that which transpired yesterday over
the report of the Committee Banks About third
of it was read, when motion made 70 suspend The
reading, under charges of dsoyalty, treason, and all
manner OF accusations against tie report. stranger
would have imagined from the tb1t it caused.
that Jen Davis had walked into the Assembly and that
the patriots there bowling for tho purpose trying
TO frighten him out. Then a desperate effort 10
smother report and prevent il from being printed
Assertions made that the New York papers would
be allowed publish it. The efforts 10 emoher
failed by vote OF thirty to sxtytwo. The Sneaser,
however contrary to the usual custom, referred tbo
report to Committee Printing, when the custom,
and fact the rules, require that reports SHAH he laid
on the table and printed.
Tho presentation OF the report Ike bomnsbell
among the republicans From he developments and dis
cussons over it In private IL is apparent that IL will
prove monster wedge in the party and Of sufficient IN
portance to split it in two Already the different mem
bers Of the party are quarrelng with bitterness
that shows mercy and no spirit OF compromise Three
republicans signed the report aud it Is useless 70 cry d
loyalty upon Their record s beyond question ard
they publicly defy their party friends and ihc
Tribune to raise that charge against them. We have
had only the first chapter in this drama II nas been IN
its demonstration thus far, somewhat comic aud ite
prised to learn that the second in this drami
will be of the tragic order. The resolution
of Mr.. Bryant relative TO amending the coDs,
tution TO abolish slavery opened the bali and
started the division in the republican ranks The report
Of the Bank Committee has struck little deeper and the
storm is raging in all its fury. Curses loud and
deep are heard on both sides. Let who has the
nerve stand up. There is no longer room for weak
kreed men, All such had better stand from undcr.
