bill found below by a,large majority. II
would have also been passed by the
House, but could not be reached before
adjournment. Upon a motion to sus-
pend the rules and put it upon the pas
sage without wiiiing us regular turn.
the inotion failed to obtain the requisite
two-third majority by only six votes.
The vote was strictly party one. The
same provisions relating to the Cherokee,
Choctaw, Chckasaw, and ether civilized
nations of indians West were incorrorat-
ed in another bill, and passed by the
House after this bill passed the Senate.
The Republican State Conven-
ton held in Illinois on the 18th inst, in-
dor.cd this bill in the fr.t plank of their
platform. This attempted outrage,
which failed - scouree the country, only
rbccause Of the want oi time, was coupled
with another if possible sill worse. y
ioint resolution was Offered in the senate
providing for 10th amendment to the
} Constitution" Of the United States, in
which authority j. given to the Congress
of the United States to 'ar tic peopis and
