HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

WASHINGTON, u. e., May Q, '72.
DEAR SIR: In answer to your inquiry
in regard to mode Of choosing clerks OF
committees, l have to say that 1t is very
often left to the chairman as matter Of
courtesy merely, but not of right. Ihave
served on five committees with clerks; on
three Of them the committees chose the
clerk by majority vote; on two Of them
the Chairman was allowed by courtesy to
select the clerk. AS o matter of strict
parliamentary right, the selection Of the
clerk belongs to the majority Of the COM
mittee. Respectfully, &c.
J. G. BLAINE,
1fully concur in all that Is said by the
Speaker. My experience is entirely in
accord with it. Il. L. DAWES,
also concur. J. A. GARFIELD.

On motion of Mr.. STEWART, the Goat
Island bill was taken up and read sec.
ond time, when MIR. STEWART moved to
refer 1t TO the Commissioners.
Mr.. Cole moved to refer II to the Com.
mittee on Military Alta irs.
These motions were pending at the ex.
piration Of the morning hour, when the
amnesty bill was called up as the unfn-
ished business.
On motion OF Mr.. SPRAaUE it was laid
aside and the West Point appropriation
bill taken up and passed.
The Senate then resumed the consider.
alton of the amnesty bill. the pending
question being on Mr.. SUMMERS motion
to substitute the supplementary civil
rights bill tor tho bill as 1t came from the
House.
Mr.. CAssERLY attempted 10 call up his
resolutionSofered some days since, asking
for information as TO the State Of accounts
between the government and the existing
Pacific Railroads, but STEWART objected
on the grounds that most OF the informs
ton asked for was already before Con
gress, r.
Mr.. CAssERLv argued that SUMMERS
motion TO the substitute Of the civil
rights bill for amnesty was contrary L
the'parliamentary law, and could not bt
entertained.

New Orleans Mobile and Texas Rail Road:
''In another column may be found full re-
port of the action taken by the Chamber of
Commerce on the pending controversy between
the New Orleans Mobile and Texas Railroad
Company, and the City Council, touching levee
privileges. 1t is understood that the recon-
mendati6ns of the Chamber, framed as they are
in IA spirit of compromises, and with due appre-
citation Of the commercial exi9encies Of the case,
will prove acceptable to all parties in interest.
Should the Council pass the proposed ordinance
at its sitting to-day, a difficulty will be solved
which has seriously interfered with the progress
of an important work.

the Governor, within an hour after their pas

The Governors Modified Reforms
from the N. O. Times

The sketch given by the Republican OF
Gov. Warmoth's message, relating to the
reforms demanded by the people, does
not come up to the flourish of his friends
The Governor is very guarded in his COM
initial on three bills of very great impor-
tance. They are the Election, Registra-
tion and Constabulary bills. He proposes
some notifications Of the first. They do
not, however, extend beyond the require
ment that the registrars should be resi-
dents of the parish in which they act,
and that they should not be candidates
for, or incumbents of any offices. These
are good amendments but they do not
go far enough.
The most odious Of the provisions of
this bill will still remain, to-Wit: the
power of appointing these registrars and
supervisors, which is to be continued in
the Governor, and the transmission to
| the Governor of all the election returns.
1t is the exercise of these dangerous and
enormous powers of manipulating the
ballots and correcting and certifying the
| the returns, which have produced the
shameful abuses, against which the peO-
pie have risen in their might. just such
officers and representatives as were sat
isfactory to the Governor and the party
| have been returned as elected, without
| regard to the votes cast. Half of the leg
| islators owe their seats to this manipula-
| ton of returns at the State House. Most
of them so returned were registrars OF
! the voters and non-residents of the par
| ishes they claim to represent. In many
| cases it has been ascertained that these
persons never received q 1.-THE OF the
votes which were cast for their opponents.
vet they were returned as elected, and
| hold their seats by such returns. The
modification of the election and registra-
tion bills proposed by the Governor does
! not strike at the source of these outrages
and abuses.
As to that odious-perhaps the most
odious of this whole series of despotic
enactments, the Constabulary Bill-the
Governor makes no recommendation. 1t
is this bill which gives the Governor the
power to send his Hctors into every par
ish, with absolute control of the police,
and powers equivalent to those of a mill
| tary commender. Persons at % distance
may we'll express their unbounded sur
prise that the people of Louisiana should
submit as quietly as they have to the
vile indignity, and oppression of such a
law and its enforcement by Gov. War
moth. The horrible murder of two OF
the most respected citizens of the parish
of Ascension, last year, was due to this
law, coupled with the appointment OF
two colored ruffians to carry it into effect
No free people can consent to live quietly
and snbmissively under such laws They
must be repealed-not simply modified ;
repealed in all those features which give
to any political funcionary the control
of the elections, the manipulation of the
ballots of the people, and the power OF
defrauaing or intimidating them in the
! exercise of that dearest right of freemen
the right of free and independent suf-
frage.-N. 0. Times.

THAT ESGrNE-The citizens of Opelousas will
no doubt be pleased to learn that Mr.. Simon
Richard has undertaken to put the Fire engine
recently purchased for our town in thorough
order. The fact of Mr.. Richards having ex-
pressed his ability to render the engine ser
viceable as new, when he is through overhaul
ing it, is sufficient evidence that the work will
be well done, and when it leaves his hands, to
use his own expression, 'it's bound to squirt"
The job could not have been entrusted to better
hands, and if Simon don't succeed in making it
work, it will be the first time he failed in his
undertaking.

THE Posr OFFICE.-There are rumors of q
change in our Post Office. Mr.. Hill who was
appointed Post Master but few months ago, to
succeed Mr.. Mayo, has, it is said, resigned the
position, and another appointment is soon to be
made. And the question is, who is to be his
suecessor2 Some say Capt o. A. Rice, ex-US
Int. Rev. assessor, is the man; others say Mr.
Ben. Cuny will get it; and some think Mr.. Le-
febvre may receive the appointment.
In the meantime, Mr.. +. A. King, the efficient
deputy P. NJ, has charge of the Office, and we
have no doubt the public would be perfectly
satisfied to have him rs Post Master.

- Passing the speakers platform on

the close Of the meeting and after most
of the reporters had left, we were struck
by the remarks of an old darky orator.
One passage was about as follows &:
when republieanism was fus planted
in Louisiana, it was in purity big field ;
but it come up mighty spindlin', like
corn planted in de bottom. It had to
look to de colored man to dig about it,
and plow it. and hoe it. Finally, when
de sun shone upon it, and the showers
came, it began to flourish an look prom
isin'. But soon as it got fit for roastin,
Henry Clay Warmoth and his particular
friens took all de sof corn in de ear, and
da choke de niggef rid de cob y This
outburst was received with laughter and
hearty cheers, and accepted as a palpable
hit by all who heard it.
