On the reading of this report resolu-
ton was offered in the Senate to refer the
message of the Governor to the Commit
tee on the State of the Republic. Con-
siderable debate ensued regarding tele-
graphing to the President. A resolution
was offered that as the Senate had heard
the statement of the negro, through the
Governor, that an account from the white
man be read; agreed to, but substi-
tute was offered for the whole that a spe-
clal committee be appointed to investigate
the whole matter. and report forthwith all
the facts. The House also appointed a
committee OF five to investigate and lay
a correct account before the Assembly.
At the request of Major Howard, Agent
of the Bureau, Judge Vason and Captain
johnson will investigate the matter, and
furnish the necessary papers for informa-
tion this afternoon.
The Senate committee appointed to take
into consideration the message of the Gov
ernor relative to the Camilla affair, made
report that they find the testimony submit.
ted to the Governor untrue, and accom-
panylng the same with sworn testimony.
The report gave rise to an exciting discus
sloH, but was adopted-yeas %, nays 10.
The House passed bill, by l12 to 30,
appointing the first Tuesday in November
for the Congressional election.
The House received a majority and mi
nority report relative TO the Governors
message on the Camilla riot. After heat
ed discussion the majority report was
adopted. 1t is, that they find the evidence
referred to by the Governor is not sus-
tanned by the evidence produced before
the committee, which was returned
with the report. They have come to
the conclusion that the whole difficulty
occurred and originated from the deter
mlnatlon of the parties referred to in the
Governors message, to wit: Pearce, Muir
ply, and Putney, to enter the town of
Camilla at the head of an armed company
of freedmen, which right was disputed by
the sheriff of the county. The persistence
OF one and determination of the other
caused the disturbance. They find that
the civil authorities are able to execute
the law and that there is no necessity for
military interference.
The report is signed by one Senator and
four members of the House. One Senator
dissenting from the report, and one said Il
agree with the committee, but believe that
other legislation is necessary to preserve
order and protect persons and property"
