Special Dispatch 20 the Register.
COLUMBUS, o., April II.
The Committee on New Counties and
County Affairs reported to the House Ct
Representatives, this afternoon, by spe-
cial permission. on the Belmont county
seat question. The report is signed by
all the members except Sextro, Chair
main, and comedies all the advantages
claimed for Bellaire, but recommends
the indefinite postponement OF the bill
on account of the increased taxation,
which would be required to put up new
public buildings. Immediately upon
the introduction of the report Mr..
DanfOrd, of Belmont, moved that the
bill be engrossed for a third reading,
and spoke in support Of his motion.
Wright, of Hamilton, Norton, of Seneca,
Sturgeon, OF Lewis, and Covert, of Cuya-
hoga, also favored the bill and spoke in
favor of its engrossment. Oglevee, of
Clark, opposed the motion. Alexan-
der, of Belmont, demanded the ayesand
noes upon the question, which were
taken. Ayes ~, noes 81. SO the mat
ter is settled at least for the present, adj
versely TO Bellaire. The discussion eli

tive department for a revolutionary
movement against the constitution, and
for an ultimate monarchy. In the earlier
days of the republic there was
party in favor of a monarchy.
The party is larger now, and
there were laws in force by which the
scheme could be put into actual opera
ton. Would any one here say the laws
10 which he had alluded were required,
lest our liberties should be destroyed?
Were measures enacted fourteen years
ago, TO be upheld for the government of
the Southern States? Ii so, then in
deed hal the North paid a dearer
price than the preservation OF the
UniOn demanded, because for the loss of
liberty there was no reparatiOn. The
conquest Of the South at the expense
OF courts and free elections was q dear
price. He denied that the South dis
regarded the law; on the contrary they
submitted 10 every legal requlrment.
The people of that section had, under
adverse circumstances, viDdicated them
selves aS law abiding people. They had
been slandered by sectional spirit. He
had pointed out the laws 10 repeal
which his party stoOdlpledged, and such
repeal was important TO the liberties of
the northern as we'll as the southern
States
Mr.. Teller followed Mr.. Voorhees,.
Mr.. COnkling asked il a vote could
no; be- taken on the pending Blaine's)
amendment, but Mr.. Butler thereupOn
moved To 20 into executive session,
which was agreed To, and on the doors
being reOPened, the Senate adjourned.

reading Of the journal, the bill reported
Yesterday from the Committee on Coin
age, Weights and Measures, To provide
for the exchange of subsidiary silver
coin for legal tenders, in all sums not eX-
Ceeding ten dollars, came -p. The ques-
ton was on the motion made by Mr..
Buckner, Chairman OF the Committee
ON Banking and Currency, TO refer the
bill'tO that Committee.
After a long discussion the previous
question was moved, and the motion To
refer the bill 10 the Banking Committee
was rejected; yeas IS, nays 81.
The bill was then before the House,
but went over till tomorrow.
The morning hour having expired,
Mr.. Atkins moved that the debate on
the legislative Appropriation Bill close
Saturday
This motion brought on a pointed

and COnger.
The former then substituted Tuesday

Mr.. Garfield moved to substitute Fri
day. Agreed 10.
The House then went into Committee
pi the Whole on the Legislative ApprO-
priation bill and was addressed by Mr.

WASHINGTON.
Around Robin Hoods Barn.

WASHINGTON, April l7.-Speaker Ran
dali, by decision yesterday, settled the
question that bills presented through
the petitien-box were properly before a
committee, and that they could be re-
ported back the same as If they had
been referred in regular course of busl-
ness in open House. When the Com
mittee on Coinage was called, Stephens
reported a bill authorizing the inter
change of subsidiary silver coins for
legal-tenders to the amount OF $50. Con-
ger Immediately made a point of order
against il. In the debate that followed,
Stephens called attention to the fact that
but for filibustering movements led
by Conger on Monday, and the obstruc-
ton OF legislation which fol-
lowed, there would have been
no necessity for a resort to the
petition-bOx. Conger took exception TO
this allusion, and wanted TO know
whether Stephens accused him OF viola
ting any rules in the motions he made
on Monday. Stephens admitted that
Conger and his associates had acted
within the rule, but he, nevertheless,
insisted that he had obstructed leglsla.
tion. Judge Kelley took the same view
Of the matter. Randall's decision, and
from which there was no attempt TO ap-
peal, was, in effect, that il petition was
presented in proper form, and accord
ing to rule, 1t was proper basis Tor
framing legislation. This settles the
question, and it will be useless TO at
tempt to obstruct the introduction of
bills on Monday or any other day. Dis
cussion of the point of order consumed
the morning hour, and the bill was not
disposed of, but will come up again to-
morrow in the morning hour.
Postal Decision.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE AttOr-
ney General has affirmed the decision
OF the Assistant Attorney General, for
the Postoffice Department, that regular
publications, designed primarily for adj
vertising purposes, cannot be sent
