After the prayer by Mr.. fusion, who seems
generally 10 perform double duties, perforce.


Mr. Mcconnell rose TO personal explana-
ton, Ia relation TO an attack upon him in the
columns OF the Columbian Fountain and New
York Herald. In relation TO the Fountain,
vol. /, No. 5O.-The editor noticing the refusal
OF the House 10 grant the use of the hall to the
Congressional Temperance Society, had sin
gled him out among the .Mack's and B's.,
(which put tog Ather, would make beehive"
(lie was called on 10 read the artice) Mr.. BIC
Z. would not indulge them by reading the ar
tlcle. "Tbis man had great name ulysses
a big man of war, daughter loud and long.)
But why should he, Mr.. McC., be made the
scapegoal? Why should he be singled out2
Why isolate him, because he chose TO take a
glass or SO? Others, also take the same privi-
lege, and yet they were not complained Of by
his censor Of public morals. II the editor
chose TO attack him by hitting him on the pate,
ne could do so as he passed his office on the ave-
nue., and he, Ward, would find that in such a
case, his own pate would not be wholly ne
elected.


The House went into the case of the New
Jersey contested election on motion OF Mr..
Dobbn. The reports were read, majority and
minority.


Mr.. Hamln moved that the resolutions of
the minority be substituted for those OF the
majority.


Mr.. Harper, Mr.. Hamln, and Mr.. Dobbin,
participated in the Debate. Mr.. Chapman
also entered into the argument, and, without
concluding the debate, the House adjourned
at half past three.
