ALBANY, April 2l.-Poltical buncombe
occupied the first hour OF the session OF the As
semhly. All the Tammany Democrats, except
Calvin. were attending King Kelys meeting in
Tammany Hall Don Hamilton Fish. Jr..
opened tho ball by calling from the table his
resolution for q committee to meet Con. Grant
upon his return from Europe, and amending II
by enlarging the Committee so ns to make 1t
consist of flve Senators and nine Assembymen.
Mr. Brooks said that If Fish or any other men,
bcr desired to pay his respects 10 Gen. Grant
upon his return there could bo no ohjec-
tion; but he did object to this attempt
to make political capital by the use OF the name
OF the Legislature to forward tho nomination
for athird term OF Gen. Grant. Mr.. Williams.
tho Grecnhnck Republican member from Os-
wego. said he did not believe I'm this attempt to
endorse n man whose Administration had not
reflected credit upon himself. his party, or the
nation II WINS a mere electoneering scheme.
and an attempt to drag and bulldoze. ms he be-
leved. n majority OF the Republicans Of the
State to the support OF Gen. Grant for n third
term. For one. he declined to be so bulldozed.
No ono defended the resolution and 1t was
adopted 10y u viva vo"c vote.

from the table the resolution passed by the Sen

the Democrats IN Congress In attaching to the
Army hiil the act rep"a' a'inE tho clarion laWnu

required unanimous consent nnd Mr.. BROOKS

Rpnulltauns rose on unesn for IL "a also did the

| Mr. Brooks appealed to the minority 10 lay the
! resolution over until more Democrats were
| there and II could be- debated inteigently. But
! this WAS no part Of the programme. Again
| RockHnd's Farle hurried down the centre aisle
declaring that the Republicans and Democrats
alike knew all That these resolutions meant.

! voted the ballot that WIS placed in their
