/ In speaking, and he had asked for order be-
cause there was at the time great confusion
| In the Hail. Az TO the statement that he
had Just put 5000 In his pocket, the state
ment was so groas that II ought not 10 DO
permitted TO 60 upon the record. Every one
knows that the Committee on Banking and
Currency was charged with tho unpleasant
duty Of Inquiry Into the late gold panic In
New York, and 10 do so properly they had
10 send for persons and papers, and required
funds. II was for that purpose that the res
olutiou was introduced, aud the gentleman's
assertion Of anything 10th contrary Ia UNI
worthy OF the House and Of the gentleman,
and an injustice to every committee Of the
House. ~
Mr.. seonela did not sec any necesslty for
90 much senSltiyeness. II the gentleman
bad been here when no made his remarks
and noted the manner In which he spoke, he
would have understood what he meant.
The gentleman was pressing an iuvestlga-
ton and needed money 70 help him, and he
got II. He did not intend 10 mean that the
gentleman would use tho money for an I'M
proper purpose, aud he supposed the House
would ascertain what was done with II when
the report was made on the Rold-pauic In
vostlgatlon.
Mr. Myers obtained the floor, but pending
plrcd and the bill went ever.
The House then took up aud passed the
Military Academy appropriation bill, with
the single amendment providing for an In
crease In the number Of Visitors BY adding
two Senators. .f'f .uHT-.TTH. :
Mr., Lanln. Of N. T., from the Committee
on Printing, called upthe resolution 70 print
extra copies OF the report Of Special Com
missioner Wells, OF tho revenue bureau. He
said no did not propose 10 20 into Che merits
/ OF the tariff question at thia time, but would
leave ltior the House 70 dothfmine how far
the debate should be extended. .f.rI 10. .' Z
Mr.. Cake, Of Pa, opposed the printing Of
the report, and In the course Of his remarks
mado general denunclatiou Of Mr.. Wells,
az having been bought up by British gold,
aud also denounced the Democrats generally.
He thought the report was too full Of errors
70 be cent over this land. rrs $500 u.s.
d. Mr.. Dlckey, Of Pa, said he would no.
address himself directly 10 the tariff queal
lion, but would call attention 10 some other
matters In connection with Mr.. Wells. He
held In his hand, he said, book called ga
miliar Science" Of which Mr.. David A. wolls,
the present Commissioner Of Revenue, was
the author. II seems, therefore, that Mr..
| Wells was philosopher and teacher boz
| fore he became q political economist. Mr..
Dlckey then auotod from the book referred
70 70 snow certain deiecs OF reasoning, &C.,
and argued that because that book was do
leeuye Ihis book must be necessarily 50,
and therefore was not proper 70 DO printed.
Mr.. Brooks, Of N. y, advocated the print.
Ing, and deprecated that sort Of argument
which LEFT tho real question at issus and dc.
nounced the author aud political parties for
the course they might take on the subject.
