The committee appointed by the House
to investigate the killing of Capt. Frank
Whitehurst, of the dredge boat " Nichol"
on the night of the 22nd of February, by
the crew of the oyster police sloop Folly,
Capt George Clark, made their report to
the House yesterday. The committee
state in their report, that after full in
vestigation, they find that the "Nichol, =
commanded by Capt Whitehurst, was
dredging on exempted bars, and during
unlawful hours that Capt. Clark attemps
ted to arrest him, and ordered him to sur
render, when Capt. Whitehurst opened
fire on the police boat, which was retur-

ity with any degree of accuracy. The
committee recommends that in order to
make the police boats more efficient they
ought to carry more men, as any dredger
fully manned is in condition to offer re
sistance. The report then goes on to
state that the law is habitually disregar.
ded by the dredgers, and that in view of
the facts Capt. clark nor any of his crew
exceeded their authority.
The report of the committee was adop-
ted. Mr. Thompson, of Baltimore city,

THE ANNE ARUNDEL PRINTING BILL
A Lively Tilt in the House Between Cotton
and Cheston.

When the Senate bill introduced by Mr..
Randall to regulate the printing for An
ne Arundel county, came uD In the House
yesterday afternoon, lively tilt of words
took place between Mr. Cotton, the senior
member of the Baltimore city delegation,
and ar. Cheston. the senior member of
the Anne Arundel delegation, which
created considerable interest on the floor
and the lobby. The discussion began
when MIR. Bowie, of the Anne Arundel
delegation, moved to strike out the enact
ing clause of the BILL thereby killing the
measure outright. The motion was Sec
onded by Messrs. Nichols and Cotton.
Mr.. Cheston claimed that 1t was I'M
necessary interference on the part OF Bal
timorc city members with Anne Arundel
county affairs. Il deny" he continued,
that this bill, as has been asserted, is In
the interest of a negro printing shop In
Annapolis. 1t is in the interest OF the
down-trodden taxpayers of Anne Arundel
county,"
Mr. Colton.-"This is the first time l
have been compelled to differ with my
esteemed friend (Mr. Cheston) of Anne
Arundel county. | have always been with
him, though he would not believe it,
But | am opposed to this bill, because it
is to aid negro printing establishment.
Mr.. Cheston.-"Was ii in the interest
of this n. gro printing establishment when
four years ago, before it was in existence,
Senator Randall prepared similar billY
Mr. Colton.-"I acknowledge that Dir.
Randall prepared such a bill, but it was
then as now backed up by 3 600 negroes.
| am sorry | cannot agree with the gen.
tleman on this bill; that We should not
for once be on the same plane
Mr.. Cheston -'tWe are not on the
same plane, sir Sensation.
Mr.. Cotton. But we were up TO this
time" Applause.
Mr.. Cheston. - Permit me, sir, TO give
you some advice, old and gray headed as
you arc" As Mr. Cheston said that be
left his seat, walked over to Mr.. Colton's
seat, and, pointing his finger at him, con
tinued: when you go to your home and
again join your family circle. sit by your
fireside and ask yourself. How much
good have / done my fellow menY Let
me, sir, quote Scripture for you and ap.
ply it to you: The latter end of this man
has been worse than the first" Scnsa-
ton and raps by the Speaker.
Mr.. Cotton My only regret, sir. as
sit by my fireside and ponder over my
past life-I shall have only one regret TO
express, and that will be that / was once
compelled to differ with my esteemed
friend" Laughter.
| Mr.. Bowie's motion to strike out the
enacting clause of the bill was carried.
