THE ARMY BILL RECONSlDERED.
The House Refuses to Pass II Over the
Presidents Veto, by Strict Par
y VOte-feas, l20i
Nays, no.
" AsHNCTON, May /.
SENATE.

Consideration was resumed OF the bill
TO prevent the introduction Of conta-
gious or infectious diseases into the
United States.
Mr.. Harris, chairman of the select
committee on the subject, explained that
the object of the bill was to regulate
commerce with foreign nations SO as to
prevent the importation into the United
States Of contagious diseases, and to so
regulate commerce among the several
States as to prevent the importation Of
such diseases into one State from
another. This was the precise and only
object of the bill. He defended the
Constitutionality of the measure, and
opposed the recOmmitment OF the bill.
Mr.. Worries rose 10 notice little
fictitious newspaper literature, a thing
he seldom did. He said that in paper
known as the National Republican there
appeared an article this morning head
ed, a Day OF Democratic DemOraliZa-
ton, in which a description OF what
was alleged to have been said in the
Democratic caucus yesterday was given,
and a speech made for him and put
into his mouth. Mr.. Voorhees, read that
part of the article referring TO himself
and then said, Inasmuch as he was not
in caucus and had not heard of it,
not having received his notice to
attend the accuracy and truthfullness
of the writer would be appreciated.
Laughter. IL was hard TO Overtake
lie when it had commenced its travels,
but notwithstanding this he thought he
would join in the race.
Alter further debate on the pending
bill, Mr.. Walker, from the Committee
on Appropriations reported a bill to
provide for the payment o. bounties
and back pay to those who were de-
privcd of the same by frauds with which
they had no connection.
Mr.. Salisbury, from the Committee
on Privileges and Elections, reported
resolution instructing that Committee
to inquire into the matter OF the con-
test of II. NJ SpOhord against VIM. z.
Kellogg, regarding a seat in the Senate,
with power to send for persons and
papers, and 10 employ stenOgrapher to
take testimony either in Washington or
New Orleans, by the subcommittee.
Mr.. Cameron, OF Wisconsin, objected
to the present consideration OF the resO-
luton.
Mr.. Edmunds inquired when the
Senate might expect the Committee on
Appropriations 10 report back the legls-
tive appropriation bill.
Mr.. Davis, of West Virginia, replied
that the bill had just been printed, and
that the subcommittee had been at
work on it and might report to the full
con, -nittca tomorrow.
Mr.. Edmunds inquired whether it is
not the same bill that was acted on at
a former session OF Congress, except in
the matter eXtraneOus to the approprla-
tons.
Mr.. Davis replied that it was; but it
was known that there were some mem
bers on the committee who were not IN
the previous Congress, and, therefore,
the entire subject had to be considered
irrespective on the former action.
Adjourned.

slanderous, and said he was not sur

Cency and proprlctv.
Mr.. Garfield made the point Of order
that the language used by Nr. Kitchen
