| House.
The House in adjourning to O'Clock
yesterday morning, preached better than il
practiced, as it was at least half an hour af
ter the appointed time before the routine Of
business was commenced. Mr.. Purdie OBJ
jected to Mr.. Hicks resolution to pay the
managers in the Page impeachment ten dol
lars day, and motto to suspend the rules
by Mr.. Mead was lost. Next came the
Brandt resolution, with it's revival of the al
ready historic scene of the 18th ult, ii
which that famous $50 bill played so promi
nent part. AS soon as the resolution was
read it was expected that lively seen,
would be inaugurated, but if any such wal
in contemplation, it was spoiled
by Mr.. w. M. Campbell, VIII,
gave notice of debate and insisted
upon it. When the resolution again comes
up, if it ever does, the opportunity will
J doubtless be awaited of by more than on
member to express his views thereon, and i
is not improbable the discussion will ASSUME
a range in which the entire case will b.
resurrected and amended
, Mr.. richardson's resolution in reference
, to filling possible vacancies on the board o
impeachment managers excited no discussion
and was adopted without opposition. Tn
t possibility was probably deemed too remot
t to be Of serious import, and therefor
nothing was said for or against it. Th
House then took up the regular routine 0
business, and passed large number o
! Senate and House bills. just before TIL
noon recess the bill relating to calling
constitutional convention was defeated by
vote of SO to IS. not voting. A two-third
1 vote, Il, being necessary, the bill still lack
or 10 votes of the requisite number
should all the absentees favor it. The bill
however, was reconsidered, and will be give
another chance, and it is to be hoped, vii
: ultimately be passed.
During the afternoon and just prior to tn
r hour for recess, a spirited contest ensued i
| committee Of the whole on the two bills relat
ing to the ST. Paul Il Pacific road, introduce
respectively by Senator Nelson and Speaker eli
, man. The former had passed the Senate, an
on being reported back by the House COMM,
tee, was ordered to be considered along wit
the House bill. The main points Of differenc
between the two bills were that the House bi
distributed the lands pro ,ut0, each mile G
> TOAD being entitled to an equal amount :
lands for every mile Of road, while the Senat
r bill distributed the lands unequally, givin
4 specific amounts to different parts of the roac
!, The latter further gave unconditional e,
!. tension of time in which to build to Sau
= Centre, while the House bill gave an extensio
J OF one month on condition that the work {
construction was not commenced prior to Jul
i, LIST on any part of the road.
The House bill also withheld one quarter {
all lands earned by the railroad company fe
i construction between Crookston and Glyndo
until the completion of the road between Me
II rose and Fergus Falls. In his contest Sneak
e Gilman was opposed by the members mort
I and west, and also by Senator Macdonald {
II Stearns.
Messrs. McCrea championed the Senate bill
i and was ably assisted by Messr
Rice, Gilman. Cowing and Holton. VIII
o strongly urged the settlement of the col
