II 1t should be clear that Governor Haye.>

Mr.. Sherman then argued that the Louis
lana Returning Board was a legally con-
stituted body, and it had not shown that
that Board had made false return. He
did not desire to see Governor Hayes have
the benefit OF any wrong, and he was salts
fed that he spoke the sentiments Of Gov
ernor Hayes when he said If that gentleman
should be convinced that the Returning
Boards OF Louisiana or Florida acted wrong
he would make no claim to the office Of
President OF the United States. There was
an absence Of any proof that these boards
had acted wrong. As the returns from those
States now stood they were just as much
entitled to be counted as the returns from
New York or Ohio, and he could sheW from
the evidence now before the Senate that the
vote of the State OF Louisiana, in fairness,
should be counted for Governor Hayes.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. -.
The question OF the right OF committees
of the House to compel the production OF
dispatches by the telegraph companies came
up in the form OF a report made by Mr..
Lynde, from the Judiciary Committee, af-
tirmiDg that right.
An amendment was offered by Mr.. Hurd,
OF Ohio, representing the majority Of the
committee, which required the description
OF the kilograms needed to be set forth
specifically in the Subpoena. ~ VI
4 substitute was offered by Mr.. Knott, OF
Kentucky, chairman OF the Judiciary Com
mittee, asserting in more direct terms the
right of the House to compel the produc-
ton of telegraphic dispatches, and declaring
that there is nothing in law that gives any
more privilege to telegraphic communion
tons than to oral or other communications.
After debate, in which Mr.. Garfield, OF
Ohio, took ground that the privacy OF the
telegraph should be held as sacred as that
of the post-office, and that sacredness Of the
post-otlice correspondence was more i'm
aginary than real, and that his letters pass
ingthrough the New York post-office during
the last month had been uniformly tamper-
ed with. -t-,3
Mr.. Hurd's amendment was rejected, and
Mr. Knotts's substitute was adopted.
The conference report ON the bill to de-
fray the expenses of the investigating COM
mittees was agreed to.
