FORTY-sIxTH CONGRESS.
WASHINGTON, Jan.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.
 SENATE-Among the business of the morn ing hour was memorial which was presented by MT. Jonas, who asked to have 1t read by the clerk. The memorial proved to be that of one William J. Moore, who states that he was member of the Packard Legislature and he received bribe of $500 to vote for Kellogg as United States Senator from Louis jana. He further alleges that he and two other members of the Legislature secured their election through fraud at the polls in the Seventh ward of Orleans parish, and asks matter of his memorical. MT. Jonas asked that it be referred to the Committee on Privileges and Elections.
 Mr. Cameron said this witness was exam ined before the committee which went to New Orleans in 1879 regarding the Seventh ward in New Orleans. Most emphatically he knew of no wrong committed in the cleo tion to which he now referred. He thought the memorial should not be referred until they had an opportunity to examine the tes- timony of the witness before the committee
 MT. Jonas said the petitioner requested to be examined with others in relation to ques- tion of bribery. He thought the memorial should go to the committee, who should de- eide whether he should be heard and whether it had any bearing on the pending contest.
 MT. Hill, of Georgia, thought it very prop CT that the memorial should lie on the table GQ6 pr6S01b, anu u6 uOp0O L0At 1n no event it would be referred to the Committee on Privileges and Elections without giving the committee discretionary powers.
 Mr. Logan said he would like to know when there would be an end to this case It had been referred and referred time and again. It seemed to him that for the pur- pose of reopening the case the petition of a person declaring that he was a villain and scoundre1 asking to be examined should be used.
 Mr. Kellogg, who had just entered the chamber, said if he was correctly informed there was memorial signed by man named w. J. Moore before the Senate There was such man who had been dismissed from the New Orleans custom house for stealing. If this memorial says he was bribed he lies, and if he swears to it he perjures himself MT. Kellogg denounced Moore as blackmailer and Ebeller, and declared he had never re- ceiyed cent from him. He said Moore was brought before the committee in New Or leans by his (Kellogg's) friends, but against his judgment As the Senator from Wiscon- sin would remember, he swore that there were no frauds in the Seventh ward and swore so persistently that the other side undertook to and claimed that they did inn peach him. For months he had been trying to sell his evidence to the other side and had named consideration which he demanded He had no objections to having the matter

THE SEAT OF GOVERNMENT.
Baton Rouge Advocate.

We learn that in view of the posi-
bilitv Of an extra session the question
has been suggested. whether the legis
laJure, in case the State House canno
be completed in time, may be legal,
called to assemble in New Orleans,
ms Is not aquesti0D OF policy ol
expediency. but one of construction
simply, and the constitution has spok.
On on the subject with 10 uncertain
0oand.
Article 100 provides. "the seat OF
government shall be and remain at
The city Of Baton Rouge" The same
article directs the legislature TO make
appropriation for the removal of the
aTchives. and authorizes the city of
Eaton Rouge TO issue certificates of
Indebtedness to the amount Of &35 .0W.
Article 81. The General Assembly
shall meet at The seat Of government
on the second Monday of MAY, 1852.
ut IL o'clock noon and bennially
thereafter"
Article 72. And he (the Governor)
may, on extraordinary occasions, con.
vene the General Assembly at the seat
oi government, OF if that sllonld have
become dangerous from an enemy or
from an epidemic, at different
place.
IL viii thus he observed that Baton
Rouge is declared to he the seat Of
government, and that all the sessions
OF the General Assembly are required
to be held in this city.
The argument alb inconrcniend is
used to authorize the calling of the
legislature in New Orleans. But WHY
10 New Orleans more than in slueve-
port or Monroe ? The Con stjtntion
does not in any manner regard New |
Orleans as the seat of government
tut on the contrary, Article 2G3 con-
tains an affirmative pregnant with u
negative, limiting the employment of
the Old capitol TO one session alone.
IL provides, "The General Assembly
first elected under this constitution
shall convene in the city Of New Or-

Quickly ConsoIed.

A few days ago the GLOBE gave an account
of the elopement of cigar manufacturer
named Louis Fernandez with young girl
only thirteen years of age, leaving behind him
young wife who apparently was over
whelmed with grief at her desertion. Yester-
day young man who gave his name as
Arthur B. Kier, made application at the office
of the clerk of the district court for mar
riage license. The urbane deputy clerk of the
court proceeded to fill out the license, until he
came to that part of the blank where the
lady's name was to be inserted when he inquired
the name, and the smiling, prospective BRIDE
groom replied, ''Evangeline Fernandez" The
name sounded familiar to ''Milt," and before
proceeding farther he asked question or two
and discovered that the lady in the case was
no other than the deserted wife. Slowly and
sadly he tore the half finished license up, and
explained to the disappointed swain the diff
Guilty in the way of obtaining a license. The
matter being full explained the would-be hus-
band frightened up, and said, if that was all
the difficulty he would send his expectant
bride around in the afternoon and get the di-
vorce. He left full of hope and Milt is wait
ing for the return of Mr.. Kier to get the
license
