Investigating this charge This absurd proposition was
ouietv disposed Of by the Speaker. who stated what
every Pafameniarian knows. that the calling OF the

and resolution:
Asyeli II ias been openly charged BY members Of Tire

April next.
A protracted and heated discussion Immediately
arose Mr. Turner modified bis statement OF the morn
ing by saving that the language Of the fellow member
who solicited his vote for the bill (and who by the way
is a Dcmocrat, was that there were FIVE hundred
reasons" whv be should vote FOR the bill. Why vas
that the gentleman from Queens came TO tie conclusion
that dollars" and reasons" were in this instance
synonymous does not appear At all events the Dem.
ocrats saw that the charge had completely fzycd out.
Mr. Salmon very scnsbly withdrew his resolution. Mr..
Vccdor however promptly renewed Il, and the debate
went on. One two ers to cut it off by the previ.
Gus question were voted down, the majority jndicionsy
dcemne it the best policy TO let the excitement have
full vent aud by all means TO avoid any step which
would look like shutting oil discussion or investigation
After al the gentlemen who felt exercised upon the sub
jcct had relieved their minds. the resolution was CARED

tbs bill TO have originated in report invented
and industriously circulated time ago by the ad'
yocaes OF the old Fire Department that the Insurance
Companies had paid TO IA few leading members oi the
MON party large sums to induce them make the bill
a party measure This was intended to excite the
cupidity Of the weak minded of the majority and to
render them disaiectcd. These stories were repeated
and at one time obtained considerable crcdcnce but all

This morning the Speaker appointed the Committee
consisting OF Mr.. Pitts as Chairman, Messrs. j. l."
Parker, g. Parker. Crandall Sumner W. y. Clark and
Lockwood.
It's pity that the bill could not have had temper
ate and full discussion the floor of the House but the
conduct OF its opponents made this impossible and
course was left without entire surrender OF the
rights OF the majority, but resort to the previous
question.
