WASHINGTON, January 2I.-Ine
house caucus resolved to instruct the
judiciary committee to report the civil
rights bill in regular order. This takes
the control from Butler and slaves ac-
ton Off for two weeks. The best par.
Lamentations say there is machinery
to push it over the fourth of March.
Butler of massachusetts, as question
of privilege, called up the mo.ioA maze
by him last session to reconsider the
vote by which the civil rights oili was
referred to the Judiciary committee. a
point of order was raised, but Til" speak
er decided OH the authority OF That
days journals of the proceedings that
the right existed and therefore the dem
ocrats fell back upon the policy OF MI
clustering, and the house is now en-
gagged in that business.
The words, sin order" inserted in
the caucus action, was misunderstood
by many members. it appears that
the judiciary committee had presented
their bill, and that n motion to recon-
slider was pending, which Butler, chair
man of the committee, could call up mt

The Louisiana, question was resum-
ed and Mr.. Thurman occupied the bal
ance of the day. He reviewed, at some
length, the circumstances attending
the election of'lS72, as we'll as the last
election, and read frequently from the
report of the senate committee in re-
gard to the frauds of the Lynch return
ing Loard. He commented upon the
message of the president III reply to
the resolution of the Sth instant, and
said a paper more full of omissions OF
material facts never ein6nated rom
tie chief magistrate of this country.
He argued that the dispatches of Sher-
idan were one sided and did not tell
the whole truth. He replied to the
charges of southern outrages, aud said
the great majority of the homi-
cides in the south were
committed bv blacks upon biacks, and
were not committed hy whites upon
blacks, as had been charged. In con-
clusion, he said 1t was u bad thing to
