and it was for the House to say whether
the impeachment resolution would now be
considered.
The question was taken and decided in
the negative, yeas los, nays 100. So the
House refused to consider the resolution.
The Democrats all voted for the resolution
and the Republicans against it except
Messrs Beatty, Butler of Massachusetts,
Fsrnsworth, Porter of Virginia, Stevenson
and Smith OF Vermont. There was great
deal OF excitement as the vote progressed
and groups of members gathered around
Mr.. Banks, of Massachusetts,, whose vote
against considering the resolution seemed
to disappoint the members on the Demo-
cratic side. His explanation was that
Colfax had testified yesterday and he had
not heard or read that testimony, and could
not therefore vote for the resolution.
COIfsx9s Name Scratched Out.
Mr.. Tyner offered a resolution which was
adopted, referring the testimony taken Ee-
fore the Poland Committee to the Judicial
~ Committee with instructions to inquire
whether anything in such testimony war
rants articles OF impeachment of any Off
Ger Of the United States not member of
the House or makes it proper that further
investigation should be ordered in his case.
Another Investigation Sprung.
Mr.. Randall then offered a resolution,
which was ADOPTED, referring to the state
ment of LIE Grand Lockwood, OF New
York, before the Committee of Ways and
Means, that large amount of money had
been used last session to secure an addi-
tional subsidy to the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company, and directing the Committee on
Ways and Means to investigate the matter
and send for persons and papers.
Mullett's & ON X-A Flare Between
FErnswOrth and Plat.
The House then resumed the sundry
civil appropriation bill. Mr.. Farnsworth
made his usual onslaught on Mr.. Munett,
the architect of the Treasury Department,
alluded to the patent known as & on Z,
roofing patent, which be said was owned by
the Vice President of the Washington
Board of Works. In response to remark
by Mr.. Platt he said something which
looked towards connecting Mr.. Plat with
the Washington ring, to which Mr.. Platt
replied that if the gentleman from Illinois
charged or insinuated that he (Platt) was
In any way connected with any ring or COL
tract he (FarnsWorth) insinuated what was
not true, and lied when he made such
statement.
Mr.. Plat was called to order for unpar-
liamentary remarks, and Mr.. Farnsworth
expressed surprise at Mr.. Platt's iuttering;
he had aimed at
Larger Game.
[ Laughter.J The ''enteDte cordiale' was
completed by the two adversaries being ap-
pointed tefiers and shaking hands warmly.
Another Credit Mobiiier Report.
Mr.. Wilson, Chairman of the Select Com
mittee on the Union Pacific Railroad aud
Credit MObilier made their report, which
was ordered printed. -
The death of Mr.. Thos. j. Speer, of
Georgia, who died during the recass of
Congress was announced, appropriate eulog-
les delivered and the House adjourned.
