A FIELD DAY IX CONGRESS. Dilatory Tactics and the Hottest Strug-glo of the Session. Indignation at Ferry for Withdrawing' the Vermont Papers. The House a Scene of Tainnlt and Yio-lent Disorder. Which is Quelled by the Sergeant-at Arms and the Macor. Washington, March 1.—The Sen-ate recess having expired at ten o’clock, the Senate're-assembled at that hour, but no legislative business could be transacted, tlie objections in the Vermont case having been dis-posed of last night, 1 lie Senate awaited the action ot the House in that, matter. House—All the liills recently passed by the Senate, removing po-litical disabilities, were passed. A call of the House was moved, for the' purpose of delay. The Speaker counted the House and found a quorum. Roil call was de-manded,. to verify the Speaker’s coynt. The Speaker said that, fur-tlier proceedings under the call of the Ilonse were in order, under the rules of the House, but not under the electoral law; the Speaker was not responsible for the law. Mr. Walling disclaimed any reflec-tion on the Speaker, but demanded the roll call to make his motion fora call of the House. The yea* and nays were taken for the call of the House resolution, and resulted yeas, 68, nays, 169' This skirmish occu-pied an hour and a quarter, and was followed by a motion to reconsider. The Speaker ordered prayers, and the legislative day .of Thursday began. After reading the journal, Popple-tonchiiitied tliat duplicate returns from Vermont, had been properly madeMo Ferry, and Vermont should go to Die Commission. A hail'dozen roll-calls arc possible tinder the pro-ceedings jn this direction. The six-ty- eight are determined to die game, which it is thought they eventually most. No committees this morning. All interest centers in the House, and there intense excitement over the roll call, to dispense with the eading of the full journal under suspension of Hie rules, which is dlowable by a two-thirds vote, dur-ing the balance of the session, if the minority iiud themselves short of a third on the call, they will be help-less, unless they recruit or by strata-gem compel t he House to suspend the rules continually on minor points. The motion to suspend the rules and suspend (lie reading of the jour-lal, resulted, yeas 165, nays 85. Gib-son, Levy and Ellis ol the Louisiana lelegation voted yea. This cull is preliminary to Poppleton’s motion egardlng the Vermont returns. The further count may be delayed several hours, unless forced by a resolution to proceed, which can be passed un-dor a suspension of the rules. It has transpired that duplicate returns from Vermont were filed with 1 lie clerk of tlic court, whose duty it was to forward it. The minority insist that the senate shall meet and open the certificate tendered now from that State, and the one which by legitimate procedure should be in Ferry’s box. Speaker Rand all rules that Ferry, in refusing to read but carrying away with him a duly authenticated paper affirming the election in Vermont, acted wrongly, and it is competent for this house to demand the return of Lire paper. A resolution to that effect is pending. The house seems perfectly uncon-trollable. The minority demand the Vermont paper, and the Speaker rules that the motion to suspend the rules is in order, and refuses to en tertain appeals? All the members are -on tlioir feet except those who are on their desks. & _ Randall has just said ‘‘the chair is determined that, gentlemen shall take their scats It will not submit longer to this disorder,” [applause] but the disorder continues. The mace officer lias’ just paraded over the floor. Members were seated and the Speaker lias ordered visitors from the floor. Speaker ltaudall, afier having the rules i said : “The chair is reso-lute and the sergeant-at-arms will do his duty. Clear the room.” The lobbies and all approaches to the house are cleared. The vote is now progressing on the motion to sus-peud the, rules and proceed with the count. It is quite likely that the house, instead ot certifying the Re-turning Board of Louisian , to court for punishment,, will turn them loose. Two hours’ debate on Vermont have commenced, after which pro-ceedi'iVgs for the' missing paper from Vermont will be in order. The committee ot arrangements for the inauguration have decided to have a grand torch-light procession in lieu of a ball. The buildings along the A venue will be illuinina-ted and decorated. All associations, civil and military, desiring t» parti-cipate in the display, are requested to address Alex. R.' .Sheppard, chair-man executive committee, postoffice box 3+2, Wushingtou. W asli ing ton, March .1 .—Evening— During the bouse debate on the Ver-mout certificate Mr. Ilewitt stated that lie had received the package ad-dressed to Ferry, in December Jasl, but Ferry had persistently refused to receive it. Hewitt made a long state-ment about Ferry’s conduct. A statement was also read about Mr. Gorham, Secretary of the Senate, explaining the course of Mr. Ferry in not receiving the package. Ferry sent the package to the house this afternoon, while the de-bate was going on,but no one seemed disposed to receive it. A resolution was then offered by Proctor Knott that fhc duplicate return from Ver-mont, bo opened by the President of the Senate, in the presence of the two houses, and if found to be a genuine certificate that the same, to-gether witli accompanying papers, bo referred to the electoral commis-sion; and that if the senate refuse to meet in jointsession for that purpose, that the house notify it that it will not bo ready to receive the senate un-til it does. This was lost, by 116 yea s to 148 nays. Hopkins of Pennsylvany, offered a similar motion, omitting the threat about not meeting the Senate, which was lost hr the same vote. Lane moved to reconsider, and the Speaker ruled the motion in order. Hale moved to lay it bn the table, and this time an all night session seems probable. Evarts has publicly stated that the declaration of Hayes election cannot be delayed beyond to-morrow even-ing. MISCELLANEOUS. En Route for Washington. Columbus, Ohio, March 1.—Gov. Hayes held a reception last night, md left at noon to-day for Wash-ington. He made a brief speech last night, and after sperking of local af-fairs and old associations, the Gov-ernor proceeded: “As for myself and family, we go perhaps to return in a few days to occupy our accus-tomed place in this community. Pos-sibly we go to other scenes and other duties, not to meet you again. In that event I wish to say, as Mr. Lin-coin said, on parting with Ms friens at Springfield sixteen years ago, I trust you will pray that I may have that divine assistance aud guidance without which I cannot succeed, and with which 1. cannot fail.” Gov. Hayes will not resign the Governor-ship at once. Hayes’ Progress—His Pai’ty. Columbus, O., March 1.—Hayes and party left for Washington at one o’clock. The party consisted of • Mrs. Hayes; his sous, Webb C,, and Scott Hayes, and liis daughter Fan-nie. Among (lie party were Gen. J. G, Mitchel and wile, Miss Platt, R. H. Piatt and Frank Hickerett, all of Columbus; Gen. 11. P. Buckland and wife aud Dr. J. T. Webb, of Tremont; Gen. R. P. Kennedy, of Bellefonte, and T. G. Nickell, ot Chidieothe. The train left on time. A Wayside Speech. A halt of the train at Newark, O., allowed Goy. Hayes to say a few words, as follows, to the crowd as-seinbled on the platform ; “I appear to say a few words in bidding you ood-bve. I understand very well the uncertainty ot public affairs at Washington. I understand very well that possibly next week I may lie with you again to resume my place iu (lie Governor’s office and as your fellow-citizen—but I also un-derstand that it is my duty to be at Washington, prepared to assume an-other position, higher and more ihi-portant, and with more difficult du-lies. I have thought, as I look upon this great audience, and as to-day I gazed upon the people who thronged our route to the depot, ot a similar occurrence sixteen years ago. A little less than sixteen years ago l marched down High street with a thousand men, to pass to the East and the South to do what we could to restore the Union of the States and re-establish the authority of the constitution. [Cheers.] Iu that work we were eminently successful, so far as it was possible to be sue-cessl'ul by force of arms. I am not here to say a word iu disparagement of what was accomplished by the brave men who went out with me from different parts of the country. Of my comrades one-third and over pever returned to their homes. They perished in the discharge of their duty, that tho republic might live. But there was something force could not do. We would have our Union to be a union of hearts, and we would have our constitution obeyed, not merely because of force that com-pels obedience, but obeyed because the people love the principles of the constitution, [applause] And to-day, if I am called to the work to which Abraham Lincoln was called sixteen years ago, it is under brighter skies and more favorable auspices. [Applause] I do hope, L do fervently believe that by tliu aid of Divine Frovidence wo may do something iu this day of peace, by works ot peace, toward re-establish-ing in the hearts of our countrymen areal and hearty attachment to tho constitution as it is and the Union as it is. Good-bye.” The Sew Folicy Toward the South. New York, March 1.—The Tri-bune’s Washington special says it is undoubtedly true that the President intends, as soon as Hayes is official-ly declared to be President-elect, to modify the orders to Augur so as to require him to uo iouger maintain the statu.quo in New Orleans, aud to use the U. S. troops statioued there only lor the purpose of preventing bloodshed. This policy has been determined upon by the President in opposition to the advice of some members of his cabinet, but it is un-derstood to have the approval of some of Gov. Hayes’ most intimate friends now iu Washington. The Republicans are greatly divided in regard to this new Louisiana policy, and some ol them have already been to the White House to protest againt it. Satisfactory to Minors. Wilkcsbarre, Pa., March 1.—The Dispatit says a telegram was received there yesterday afternoou, from the managers of the Lehigh and YVilkes-barre Goal Company, to their agents, ordering all idle mines in this vicin-ity to resume work at once. This will put into immediate operation, in this vicinity, eight colliers, wnich have been idle lor some time past.

House—All the liills recently passed by the Senate, removing po-litical disabilities, were passed. A call of the House was moved, for the' purpose of delay. The Speaker counted the House and found a quorum. Roil call was de-manded,. to verify the Speaker’s coynt. The Speaker said that, fur-tlier proceedings under the call of the Ilonse were in order, under the rules of the House, but not under the electoral law; the Speaker was not responsible for the law. Mr. Walling disclaimed any reflec-tion on the Speaker, but demanded the roll call to make his motion fora call of the House. The yea* and nays were taken for the call of the House resolution, and resulted yeas, 68, nays, 169' This skirmish occu-pied an hour and a quarter, and was followed by a motion to reconsider. The Speaker ordered prayers, and the legislative day .of Thursday began. After reading the journal, Popple-tonchiiitied tliat duplicate returns from Vermont, had been properly madeMo Ferry, and Vermont should go to Die Commission. A hail'dozen roll-calls arc possible tinder the pro-ceedings jn this direction. The six-ty- eight are determined to die game, which it is thought they eventually most. No committees this morning. All interest centers in the House, and there intense excitement over the roll call, to dispense with the eading of the full journal under suspension of Hie rules, which is dlowable by a two-thirds vote, dur-ing the balance of the session, if the minority iiud themselves short of a third on the call, they will be help-less, unless they recruit or by strata-gem compel t he House to suspend the rules continually on minor points. The motion to suspend the rules and suspend (lie reading of the jour-lal, resulted, yeas 165, nays 85. Gib-son, Levy and Ellis ol the Louisiana lelegation voted yea. This cull is preliminary to Poppleton’s motion egardlng the Vermont returns. The further count may be delayed several hours, unless forced by a resolution to proceed, which can be passed un-dor a suspension of the rules. It has transpired that duplicate returns from Vermont were filed with 1 lie clerk of tlic court, whose duty it was to forward it. The minority insist that the senate shall meet and open the certificate tendered now from that State, and the one which by legitimate procedure should be in Ferry’s box. Speaker Rand all rules that Ferry, in refusing to read but carrying away with him a duly authenticated paper affirming the election in Vermont, acted wrongly, and it is competent for this house to demand the return of Lire paper. A resolution to that effect is pending. The house seems perfectly uncon-trollable. The minority demand the Vermont paper, and the Speaker rules that the motion to suspend the rules is in order, and refuses to en tertain appeals? All the members are -on tlioir feet except those who are on their desks. & _ Randall has just said ‘‘the chair is determined that, gentlemen shall take their scats It will not submit longer to this disorder,” [applause] but the disorder continues. The mace officer lias’ just paraded over the floor. Members were seated and the Speaker lias ordered visitors from the floor. Speaker ltaudall, afier having the rules i said : “The chair is reso-lute and the sergeant-at-arms will do his duty. Clear the room.” The lobbies and all approaches to the house are cleared. The vote is now progressing on the motion to sus-peud the, rules and proceed with the count. It is quite likely that the house, instead ot certifying the Re-turning Board of Louisian , to court for punishment,, will turn them loose. Two hours’ debate on Vermont have commenced, after which pro-ceedi'iVgs for the' missing paper from Vermont will be in order. The committee ot arrangements for the inauguration have decided to have a grand torch-light procession in lieu of a ball. The buildings along the A venue will be illuinina-ted and decorated. All associations, civil and military, desiring t» parti-cipate in the display, are requested to address Alex. R.' .Sheppard, chair-man executive committee, postoffice box 3+2, Wushingtou. W asli ing ton, March .1 .—Evening— During the bouse debate on the Ver-mout certificate Mr. Ilewitt stated that lie had received the package ad-dressed to Ferry, in December Jasl, but Ferry had persistently refused to receive it. Hewitt made a long state-ment about Ferry’s conduct. A statement was also read about Mr. Gorham, Secretary of the Senate, explaining the course of Mr. Ferry in not receiving the package. Ferry sent the package to the house this afternoon, while the de-bate was going on,but no one seemed disposed to receive it. A resolution was then offered by Proctor Knott that fhc duplicate return from Ver-mont, bo opened by the President of the Senate, in the presence of the two houses, and if found to be a genuine certificate that the same, to-gether witli accompanying papers, bo referred to the electoral commis-sion; and that if the senate refuse to meet in jointsession for that purpose, that the house notify it that it will not bo ready to receive the senate un-til it does. This was lost, by 116 yea s to 148 nays. Hopkins of Pennsylvany, offered a similar motion, omitting the threat about not meeting the Senate, which was lost hr the same vote. Lane moved to reconsider, and the Speaker ruled the motion in order. Hale moved to lay it bn the table, and this time an all night session seems probable. Evarts has publicly stated that the declaration of Hayes election cannot be delayed beyond to-morrow even-ing. MISCELLANEOUS. En Route for Washington. Columbus, Ohio, March 1.—Gov. Hayes held a reception last night, md left at noon to-day for Wash-ington. He made a brief speech last night, and after sperking of local af-fairs and old associations, the Gov-ernor proceeded: “As for myself and family, we go perhaps to return in a few days to occupy our accus-tomed place in this community. Pos-sibly we go to other scenes and other duties, not to meet you again. In that event I wish to say, as Mr. Lin-coin said, on parting with Ms friens at Springfield sixteen years ago, I trust you will pray that I may have that divine assistance aud guidance without which I cannot succeed, and with which 1. cannot fail.” Gov. Hayes will not resign the Governor-ship at once. Hayes’ Progress—His Pai’ty. Columbus, O., March 1.—Hayes and party left for Washington at one o’clock. The party consisted of • Mrs. Hayes; his sous, Webb C,, and Scott Hayes, and liis daughter Fan-nie. Among (lie party were Gen. J. G, Mitchel and wile, Miss Platt, R. H. Piatt and Frank Hickerett, all of Columbus; Gen. 11. P. Buckland and wife aud Dr. J. T. Webb, of Tremont; Gen. R. P. Kennedy, of Bellefonte, and T. G. Nickell, ot Chidieothe. The train left on time. A Wayside Speech. A halt of the train at Newark, O., allowed Goy. Hayes to say a few words, as follows, to the crowd as-seinbled on the platform ; “I appear to say a few words in bidding you ood-bve. I understand very well the uncertainty ot public affairs at Washington. I understand very well that possibly next week I may lie with you again to resume my place iu (lie Governor’s office and as your fellow-citizen—but I also un-derstand that it is my duty to be at Washington, prepared to assume an-other position, higher and more ihi-portant, and with more difficult du-lies. I have thought, as I look upon this great audience, and as to-day I gazed upon the people who thronged our route to the depot, ot a similar occurrence sixteen years ago. A little less than sixteen years ago l marched down High street with a thousand men, to pass to the East and the South to do what we could to restore the Union of the States and re-establish the authority of the constitution. [Cheers.] Iu that work we were eminently successful, so far as it was possible to be sue-cessl'ul by force of arms. I am not here to say a word iu disparagement of what was accomplished by the brave men who went out with me from different parts of the country. Of my comrades one-third and over pever returned to their homes. They perished in the discharge of their duty, that tho republic might live. But there was something force could not do. We would have our Union to be a union of hearts, and we would have our constitution obeyed, not merely because of force that com-pels obedience, but obeyed because the people love the principles of the constitution, [applause] And to-day, if I am called to the work to which Abraham Lincoln was called sixteen years ago, it is under brighter skies and more favorable auspices. [Applause] I do hope, L do fervently believe that by tliu aid of Divine Frovidence wo may do something iu this day of peace, by works ot peace, toward re-establish-ing in the hearts of our countrymen areal and hearty attachment to tho constitution as it is and the Union as it is. Good-bye.” The Sew Folicy Toward the South. New York, March 1.—The Tri-bune’s Washington special says it is undoubtedly true that the President intends, as soon as Hayes is official-ly declared to be President-elect, to modify the orders to Augur so as to require him to uo iouger maintain the statu.quo in New Orleans, aud to use the U. S. troops statioued there only lor the purpose of preventing bloodshed. This policy has been determined upon by the President in opposition to the advice of some members of his cabinet, but it is un-derstood to have the approval of some of Gov. Hayes’ most intimate friends now iu Washington. The Republicans are greatly divided in regard to this new Louisiana policy, and some ol them have already been to the White House to protest againt it. Satisfactory to Minors. Wilkcsbarre, Pa., March 1.—The Dispatit says a telegram was received there yesterday afternoou, from the managers of the Lehigh and YVilkes-barre Goal Company, to their agents, ordering all idle mines in this vicin-ity to resume work at once. This will put into immediate operation, in this vicinity, eight colliers, wnich have been idle lor some time past. |
