the heart of labor. What the people wanted
was bread, not blood.
| Mr.. De La Matyr spoke in the same vein.
| Down with the peurile cry of revolution raised
| by those who had been towards, on one side,
or cormorants on the other. He had no language

country wanted peace, not the reopening OF

At this point the committee rose, and the
session of Wednesday ended and that of Thurs

mittee of the whole, Mr. Blackburn in the
chair, on the legislative appropriation bill, and
De La Matyr continued his remarks, and when
his time expired, Mr.. Weaver moved that it be
extended. To this Mr.. Hazleton objected,
which called forth the remark from Mr.. DE
| La Matyr that he submitted although his party
had had but one hour allotted to them in this
| debate.
MIR. Joyce stated that he had heard in thi.

armed men in the South took possession of the
ballot box, stuffed it full of tissue ballots and
killed men who would not vote the Democratic
| ticket delicacy should not be laid aside, and
| men of the North should resent the insult and
| again hurl defiance to treason and modified re-
bellion. The people of the North had no con-
cessions to make, but were determined that the

preserved and enforced at all hazards and at
any cost, and the men who in 1861 had

Mr.. O'Neill denied that in the execution OF
the election laws in Philadelphia single Dem.

Mr.. Randall asked why, in view of the fact
that the railroad riots of 1878 had been quelled
by Mayor stokeley without federal interfer-

| into Philadelphia at an election, which gave
| promise of being conducted, and which was

Mr.. Dunnell argued as to the constitutional
power and duty Of the President to veto meas

Turner made speech in defense of the Demo-
cratic side of the question.
DE LA MATYR AGAIN.
| Mr.. De La Matyr again obtained the floor
for the balance of Turner'S hour and conclud-
ed the speech which he commenced in the
morning, charging that legislation since the
| war had been altogether in the interest of the
wealthy classes and to the prejudice OF the
| poor, whose slavery he said was far more intol-
erable than the slavery of the colored people
! South before the war. There were ominous
indications that efforts in the direction of

had been carried to the very verge of the line

party to avert the danger.
| Mr.. Hazelton denounced the Greenback rep
resentatives for the "fol de rol' in which they
had been indulging. He said that they appeared
to him to be prepared to stab the national credit
and honor and that their speeches were like
the chattering of some maudlin individual at a
funeral. One of them, Mr.. Gillette, had told
| the House that the country was going to the
| dogs, because two heifers in Iowa sold for $40.
That only showed, he said, that what was need

of less heifers. Naughter.) He then proceed

Mr.. Deuster inquired if the men who hac

A controversy then arose between Deustel
