GRAPHIC SCENES XX THE HOUSE The Last Impotent Kick of leinoc" racy, at the Lnvs. and Const U tuliou, ns it Struggles in the Last Pilch. It is said that gold has been discov ered in the Big Horn country. But there Is not much of a rusli in that directon yet on account of the danger from those northern Indians, The United States Supreme Court has decided that until Congress makes an inter-state commerce law, the States have the right to regulate the charges for carrying freight aud pass engers on railroads. The opinion was elicited in the decision of one of the granger cases of Illinois. In this the farmers gained a mo9t signal victory. On the morning of March 1st the boiler of Kocher & Baker's saw mill at Brown's Corners near Huntington, Ind., exploded just after work had commenced, Instantly killing Samuel Hull, and fatally injuring Fred Allen, Joseph Brown, James Collins, W. Fraser, and John Koche. The latter Is one of the proprietors. The build ing was shattered into atoms. A lioree standing riear was killed. The cause of the explosion is unknown. General Garfield ha9 sued the Cleve land Plaindcaler for libel, it having published a long and filthy letter about his attending that colored ball in New Orleans. The article charged that Garfield, who was a clergyman until he entered the army, attended the ball and conducted himself Inde cently. General Garfield did not at tend Palmer and Trumbull's ball nor any other, and he proposes to punish the PlaindeaJcr for the very free use It makes of his name. President Hayes has not as yet ap pointed his Cabinet, but Washington reports indicate who some of them will very probably be. Wm. M. Ev erts, the greatNew York lawyer, will be Secretary of State ; Senator John Sherman, of Ohio, Secretory of the Treasury. Gen. Key of Tennessee, McCrary of Iowa, Gen. Devans of Massachusetts, Frye of Maine, Carl Schurz of Mo., and Richard W. "Thompson of Indiana, the President jhas indicated, will receive Cabinet .appointments. The Chanute (Kan.) Times says: 'The prospects for fruit at this date was never more flattering. The usual Jow temperature of last November, with the increased and continued cold of December and January lias had a favorable effect, in preventing a pre mature developement of fruit buds up to date, and thus preceded by an uu usual vigorous wood growth of last year amply sustains the expectation of a good fruit crop. Democratic Caucus. Washington, March 3. The democratic caucus this evening adopted an address to the country, prepared by Representative Hurd for signatures of the members of the par ty In congress. The address is In the nature of a protest againat the declar tion that Hayes and Wheeler were duly eleoted, and criticizes the action of the electoral commission, and as Herts that the rights of congress have been invaded, that crimevand fraud have received judicial sanction, and that republican Institutions have been imperilled. The Democratic party commenced the campaign upon a platform based upon falsehood and hypocrisy. They raised the cry of "stop thief to divert attention from themselves and enter ed upon the work of attempting to elect a President by a policy of delib erate deception, lies intimidation, ballot stuffing, repeating, assassina tion, negro murdering, bribery, per jury, and frauds and crimes of every phase unprecedented in the history of any party even perhaps that of the Democratic party yet they have been vanquished. Nevertheless they propose to begin another campaign against Republicanism by promulga ting an address the spirit of which is falsehood and the object of which is tb cripple and prevent a good admin istration of governmental affairs. New Pension Bill. Washington, March 3. There was passed, without discus sion, and with yeas and nay 8, a bill making all pensions for death or wounds, date back to the time of the Boldler's death, or of his discbarge from eervlce. and providing for the payment of all arrears of the pension on that basis. The conference report on the legislative appropriation bill was agreed to. When the bill for the formation of the Tripartite Tribunal of arbitration was being discussed, we pointed out the tremendous odds the compromise give the Democrats Slate Journal. Not much.

ItwnBonlhe counting of the vote from Vermont during Thursday and Thursday night last that the filibus tering Democrats In Congresp, made their final and mostdesperate attempt to prevent the completion of the count of the electoral vote; and it is conceded that had it not been for the firm rulings of Speaker Randall, who chope to placo himself In antagonism with a majority of his party friends rather than to launch the country in to anarchy and perhaps civil war, they would have succeeded. During that day and night the fate of the country depended in his hands, and all men of all parties, who desired an amicable settlement of the question, honor him and sincerely thank him for burying the partisan in the patriot. It seemed that the spirit which im pelled Brutus to slay Cajsar had pos sesion of Randall that day and night, for while he struck down with His gavel his partisan friends and ruled to thwart tho last hope of Tildeu, he gave them to understand that it was not that ho loved his party less but hl country more. We are willing to give Speaker Randall credit for such nobleipatriotism, and attribut no self ish motive for his good day's work And for sustaining the speaker, among the Democrats, Fernando Wood, Regan of Texas, and even Hewitt, leaders of the anti-filibusters, are sharers of his glory. They acting in connection with the solid Repub lican vote, with the favorable ruling of the Speaker compelled the count to go on in accordance with law, and the final announcement that the count was finished aud a President elected. A more intensly exciting and stormy time was never witnessed." The pretext for ail this display over Vermont was, that Hewitt had offer ed to the President of tho Senate a paokage which he claimed was a sec ond certificate from somebody of that State giving one vote for Tilden be cause one of the Hayes electors was ineligible. The Democrats claimed that this package should be received, opened, read, treated in all respects as if it had reached the Vice Presi dent's hands In due manner and with in the time prescribed by the law, and Mubmitted to the commission for their decision. The Vice President, of course would not touch the pack age, and stating that ho had received but one set of returns from Vermont, paid no further attention to Hewitt's paokage of papers. No lawyer, statesman or any one else with a grain of sense could seriously blame the Vice President for this clearly lawful ruling, yet the filibustersmade it the pretext for great indignation and the most contemptible work ever any such a body of men were guilty of. To give our readers, who do not see the daily papers with full reports, some idea of last Thursday's proceed ings in Cougrpss, we will condense some qf the telegraph reports : Washington, March 1. Old habi tues of the reporters' gallery who sat here during the exciting scenes that foreshadowed the rebellion, and the equally exciting scenes during the re construction legislation, say that the excitement in the House to-day has surpassed everything in their recol lection. Since 10 o'clock this morn ing the House has been nothing but confusion, and although under the spirit of the electoral bill the vote of Vermont should have been counted at 12 o'clock to-day, nine hours have at the present writing (7:30 p. m ) been exhausted, and wo look forward to several hours more. The clerks of the House have been CALLING THE NAMFS OK MEMBERS FOR FOUR HOURS CONSECUTIVELY, there havlnc been eight calls of the roll since 4:30. Tho filibusters had gained rjjqny reoruits since last even ing, and were prepared ior tne nnai and desperate fight. As Boon as the House was called to order this morn ing at 10 o'clock, the filibustering commenced, and dilatory motions were made one after another, on which roll calls were demanded, so that the time was occupied till after 12 o'clock, when Ferpand.0 Wood, who has assumed the leadership of the anti-filibusters, succeeded in ob taining the floor.' But Wood yielded the floor to Pop pleton an, Ohio filibuster, for a speci al purpose. This was uufortunate. for Poppleton at once words, and a better much wrangling was among the brethren. Randall sustained Wood. While Popleton had the floor he permitted a resolution censuring the Vice Presi dent to be offered, for his contempt toward Hewett's package. The read ing was interrupted by cries of "No," "No," from the Republican side, and at its conclusion fifty filibusters sprang to their feet with a variety of motions, while "Order," "Order," "Order," was shouted from all parts of the House. Randall then ordered the journal of yesterday read as a se dative, but it proved to be a mistake, for the journal wae imperfect, the journal clerk not having had time to complete that part of it which related to the proceedings from 10 to 12 o'clock to-day. SPRINGER WAS UP EVERY FIVE MIN UTES. with an objection to the journal, but Randall rapped him downevery time. At its conclusion Springer Rot the floor, and moved to correct the jour-j nal by inserting the report of the Chinese commission made yesterday, which, if It had been read, would have required at least five hours. Fernan do Wood moved to lay Springer's amendment n th table, on which the filibusters called for a vote by rvph and noes. The confusion was her of men who desired the floor grew rapidly larger, until it included near ly every man oh tho Demooralkmide. Republicans very wisely kept their seats AND LET THE DEMOCR ATS FIGHT IT OUT AMONG THEMSELVES. It was the last ditcU for the filibust ers, and they fought desperately. Had the Speaker been disposed he couJd have caused revolution in an instant, but lie held very tight rein, and aton ed for many of the faults he had pre viously committed, by his straight forward course in the interest of law and order. Many of his rulings were arbitrary, but were justified by the exigenc3T. Springer's correction of the journals had been laid on the ta ble, two-thirds having voted in the affirmative. This was the most en couraging vote of the fight, for it was first outof order on the grouud that the House had no authority to re view the action of the President of the Senate. A dozen meirshouted an appeal from the Speaker's ruling, and as near as could be told from the babel of voleeu, a doaen more were denounc ing the ruiingas arbitrary and unjust. Randall kept his temper, however, and FOUGHT THE FILIBUSTERS SINGLE HANDED. A dozen men were yelling at the tops of their voices, while the Republicans were crying "order," and Randall was beating his desk into Bplinters. Beebe, of New York, was the most excited man in the House. He is a tall man, of a determined aspect, with a voice like a trumpet, and could make himself heard above all the din, butKandall would neltner hear nor see him, and kept up his rapping with the gavel. BEEBE JUMPED TO THE TOP- OF HIS DESK, gesticulating wildly, and demanded that the Chair should entertain an appeal from his decision. Randall shouted in return : "Tho Chair will entertain no appeal, but will romind the member that he is violating the rules of the House and conducting himself in a highly unbecoming man ner." Randall's retort was greeted with loud cheers and clapping of hands from the Republican side and thegallaries. Randall continued that Beebee must remember that he was a member of the American Congress, aud if he persisted in disgracing him self he would TUT HIM IN CUSTODY, hut tteebe would not hear, and climb ing over the tops of the desks, knock ing books and ink bottles on the floor, he shook his fist at the Speaker and denounced him for usurpation, and violation of law. Beebe'a voice was DROWNED IN A CHORUS OF CAT-CALLS AND HISSES. Almost every man in the House was on his feet, shouting "order," aud ad ding to the confusion. People were standing up in the galleries, waving hats and handkerchiefs and yelling at the tops of their voices. Randall was the only cool man in the Housu. Shouting that the Chair had authori ty and power to preserve order, and iutended to do so, he ordered the Ser- geant-at-arins to do hia dut', aud Thompson seized his mace and start ed down the aisle toward Beebee, who jumped down from the top of Glover's desk, on which he had been standing and slunk into his own seat. Randall then ordered the floor cleared of sev eral hundred interlopers who had gained admittance and crowded arouud the back rows of seats. It was at leas f FIFTEEN MINUTES BEFORE THE DOOR KEEPERS HAD DRIVEN OUT THE CROWD. during which time business was sus pended. During the evening, up till mid night (the present writing), the gal leries were as crowded as they have been on any day during the count, and on the floor of the House were at least 300 people who were not mem bers, many of them being Representatives-elect to the next Congress who were treated to a scene which is sel dom witnessed in an ordinary life. consin vote. That matter was then considered. Randall declared- that the debate on the objections must go on, and announced that ha would en tertain no dilatory amendments. He recognized Lynde, of Wisconsin, to speak, who called for the reading of the testimony taken by Fields' com mittee In the Wisconsin case. Much time was wasted hunting it up. About 1 o'clock the galleries had be gun to thin out a little, but at that hour six or seven hundred people were present. f k - March 2. 1 o'clock a. m. After the House had voted down a motion to adjourn, Fernando Wood submitted a proposition that the House take a re cess until 10 to-morrow, with the un derstanding that the flnal vote be taken at 2 o'clock. To this the Dem ocrats would not agree. O'Brien said that Wood was the high priest of the Republican party, and was insulting the Democrats by submitting such a proposition. Springer said they would never cousent to a recess with a com promise. Blackburn got up in a trag ic way, and pointing to the clock, said: "The clock indicates that Fri day, hangman's day, has come. Let the fraud be consummated in dark ness." At this there were roars of laughter. Fernando Wood culled up his proposition again, which could only be entertained by unanimous consent, and, it being objected to, he declared he would not consent to leave the hall till the count was finish ed. March 2, 1:30 a. m. Debate began about 1:15. Magoon and Cate read written speeches in low monotones un heard by anybody. The members are sprawled around in the cloak-rooms, and about half the seats are empty. Mills, of Texas, spoke ten minutes in favor of the House electing a Presi dent ''before tho infamy Is consum mated,' aud so forth. Sir Edward Thornton and several other members of the diplomatic corps were sitting in the gallery at l:30oclock in full dress suits. Mrs Fish remained a spectator until after 12 o'clock. Associate Justice Swayne sits beside Sir Edward with his chin on his cane. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. now $9 per bushel, it shows a decided ly better margin than wheat in its best j'ears. Valentine Burke a notorious count erfeiter after spending six years in the Mo. penitentiary, out of a term of fifteen, to which he was sentenced, has been pardoned, and is now at liberty. The Grasshopper Act. violated his dispute and indulged in but Speaker At 11 o'clock p. m., the filibusters reached the eqd of their rope, and the final resolution to sustain the objec tions to Vermont was adopted. The filibusters were all ready with a reso lution to notify the Senate that the House was waiting to receive them In joint convention, but Randall decided that it was unnecessary beoause the electoral bill authorized the Speaker to perform that duty. Randall had seemiugjy been favoring the' filibus ters all the evening, and tljfl Repub licans felt a little blue, but this ruling encouraged them, and they greeted it with cheers. Bane, of Oregon, a vio lent little fellow, flew into a passion, and declaimed at the Republican side, but his voice was drowned in roars of laughter and tho whacks of the Speaker's gavel. O'Brien, Springer, and others tried to get in resolutions, and Barney Caulfield was standing Ju his seat with a pile of law books be fore him, and a slip of papers in his hand, but Randall, refused to recog uize auybody, aud ordered the seats generally reserved for the Senate cleared for their accommodation. The Senate morcbed into the House a few minutes after 11 o'clock, when Vermont, Virginia, and West Virgin ia were counted, and at 11:30 o'clock Wisconsin, the lastState was reached. Objection being raised to one of the Republican electors, it being alleged that he was a pension surgeon, the two bodies separated to consider the objections. It took the Senate just three minu tes to dispose of the Wisconsin case, Mr. Cameron offering a resolution to count the votes, objections notwith standing, on which resolution there was not a dissenting voice. In the House, as soon as the Sen ate had withdrawn, the filibusterjug began again, but not energetic as at had been. Mills of Texas sent up a resolution that the House pow pro ceed to elect a President, but the Speaker decided that it was out of orr der, itnot being pertinent to the con- iocrefthing.all the time, and the num-jsideratlon of the objection to the Wis- Nlne million barrels of beer were brewed in tiie United States last year.
