THE LAST OF THE BRIBERY INvEsTIGA-
T1oN-The Committee Recommend the EI-
pulsion of 7',co CoIored Members Of the
House.-Pursuant to the notice published
in the DISPATCH, there was meeting of
the Bribery and Corruption Committee
last evening, in the office of the Superin-
tendent Of Public Instruction. Present :
DR.. Pannill, chairman Messrs. S. S. Tur-
ner, Mahood, and Geo. Walker.
The chairman stated that he bad not
called meeting of the committee sooner,
because the witnesses summoned from
Portsmouth had gone North before. the
summons reached Portsmouth, and, OF
course, they could not appear before the
Legislature adjourned.
Mr.. Walker then moved that the commit
Tee; present their report to the House OF
Delegates upon the evidence already ad-
duced, which report should recommend the
expulsion of two cOlored members OF the
House of Delegates. While the evidence
might not he sufficient to convict the par
ties if tried before q court of justice, ut
the same time it was sufficiently convincing
i'm the opinion of the committee to warrant
such a conclusion and such report.
The motion prevailed, and Mr.. Smith
Turner was appointed to prepare the re-
port, he having been in constant attend
ance during the session OF the committee,
and fully posted in regard to all the cyl
dence. .1'..
The committee then rose.
