of Mr.. Blaine till the testimony Is all in. 1t has
been interrupted by motion to postpone on part
of Blaine. The testimony not being all IN have
come to no conclusion on the subject.
Mr. Frye--If that is true do you justify the
chairman of the judiciary committee IN bringing
that matter before the House
Mr.. Hunton--l have nothing to do with it. The
chairman Of the Jude larry acts for himself, and
act for myself
Mr.. Fyre-AnsRcr me catagoucally, do you
justify him
Mr.. Tucker of Vngiuia-I call the gentleman
to ORDER lie has not the right to address my col
leage directly.
MIR Hale of Maine, said that this winter there
had been much of fair combat on the floor OF the
House, and foremost in these cOmbats bad been
his former colleague, (}laine.) lie had given and
taken hard blows, but had never given blow in
the back. His colleague had always been open
and manly, and everybody knew his ground and
had a fair chance to thrust and parry
All Of this matter had by unanimous consent
been considered, as far as this session was con-
cerned, thing Of the past.
The judiciary committee had agreed after full
deliberaton in which its chairman Knott had
participated, that the matter in which Mr.. Blaine
was interested should cease from discussion and
should go over until the next session. He had
failed to hear before to-day any murmur of dis
sent to the conclusion of the judiciary committee,
for at the time it was reached his colleague lay on
a bed of sickness.
At the time that conclusion had been reached it
had been determined in consideration of all the
circumstances, that Blaine should have the bene-
fit of what any party in any court would have
always accorded him. The subject had been
opeued again by the gentleman from Kentucky.
II by that opening he had gained ANYTHING, if his
friend. had gained ANYTHING it would be very
surprising to him (liale)
The House had had remarkable manifestation,
a manifestation not often seen, manifestation of
combined deliberaticn and passion, passion which
did not choose its words, delberaticn which lay
in wait until some dreaded enemy had disappeared
before it struck forth The House had had the
two combined in manner which it had never
seen before
An investigation had been entrusted to the law
