HOUSE.


The Speaker stated that he, yesterday,
submitted the question to the House
whether Tuesdays journal should DO
read before Mondays journal had been
approved He thought it just and equi-
table TO submit a similar question reia-
tive to Wednesdays journal.
Mr.. Fernando Wood, as means for
an amicable adjustment OF the present
difficulty, advised that the journals oi
Monday. Tuesday and "Wednesday be
approved, and Immediately thereafter,
without debate, the House should vote
on the following resolution:
ResOlred, That the COMMITTEES on Re
vision of Laws be discharged from the
further consideration OF the bill INTRO
duced by Mr.. Townshend, and that 1t
be referred to the Committee on Ways
and Means.
After long and heated debate, par
ticipated in by Messrs. Townshend,
Kelly and Mcmillan, the question re-
Cured upon Mr.. +. Wool's proposition.
Mr.. Conger objected to it and discus,
sion arose as to whether tho objection
did not come too late.
The Speaker decided that, though lac
thought the objection came too late, a.
long as Mr.. Uonger asserted that he had
intended to object he would recognize
the objection.
The question then recurred upon the
demand for the previous question upon
Mr.. MClane's proposition, which, az
modified, provides as follows:
WHERRAs, The House being OF the
opinion that the reference OF House bill
No. 5,265 TO the Committee on Re-
vision of Laws was incorrect under ITS
rules, doth resolve that the Journal ol
Tuesday and Wednesday shall be read
for approval in their order, and that
said committee be discharged from lt'
further consideration and the same he
referred to the Committee on Ways and
Means.
The previous question was seconded
and the main question ordered.
Mr.. Blackburn demanded q division
of the proposition.
Mondays Journal was then, on mo
ton of Mr.. Garfield, approved, aud the
clerk proceeded to read Tuesdays Jour
nal.
The Speaker then announced that @
vote would be taken on the portion o
the proposition which discharged the
Committee on Revision OF Laws IRON
further consideration. The House ther
by lac yeas to 100 nays discharged thu
Committee on Revision OF Laws iron

ring the bill to the Committee on Way'
