Tho rosolation proposes that a simplo majority voto bo sufficient to auspond tho rules, a two-thirds vote belng ro quired now, and that tho rules of tho House bo so far suspendod during tho remainder of tho present session of tho Forty-third Congross os to prevont the Speaker from entertaining any dilatory motions pending tho coneidoration of any public bill or joint rosolution, or of acy motion to bring, or tho rosule of which will bring bofore tho House for action sny Dill or joint resolution, ‘The avowed purpose of the resolution was to facilitate tho transaction of public business, ‘Tho rogolution failed to secure thonccessary two-thirds and was rojectod. ‘Tho voto stood, yeas 150; naya 98. ‘The defent of tho resolution was duo to Republican votes. ‘Tho Republicans who voted against il thought ey dincovered dangor in the proposed rulo. "They belioved that it might bo USED FOR EVIL AS WELL AS FOR GOOD, and that whilo it might onable tho majority more eusily to pees some Republican moasuros, it would also pormit a majority to pasa the Toxas Pacitic bill, and other liko jobs whose managers aro ausiously awaiting toe approach of tho end of the aessjon. It was kaown that the caucus at which tho resolution waa agreod to was calied by Southera Kopublicans, and that ono of tho intended purposos of the rute was to facili- tate the passage of now logislation concerning thoSouth., Notablo among those schemes is the ue making appropriation for two yoars for the army, and tho ono providing sdditional protec- tion'to the ballot at national clections, A con- siderable number of Republicaue wero opposed to theso measures, and for that reason voted against the resolution. They foared that cho passage of tho Army Appropriation bill for two years would be fatal to the future of tho party, ‘Pho advocates of the rosolution insisted private ly and in caucus that such action was absolutely Rocowary, aw tho Domoorate liad repentoly do- clairod it to be their intention to filibuster dur- ing tho entire soasion to defeat, if possiblo, tho will of tho mojority. Thero was but little dobate of the question upon the floor, ‘Tho Democrats sought by varions movemonts to bring o point of order to boar, but failed, Soma urged that it wos a rulo to destroy the rights of the minority ; others that it wada plan to open the Troasury to all manuer of plundering, A few on the Republican side coincided in the latter suggestion, HEPUBLICANS IN THE NEGATIVE.

B. Wilson for an extension of the patent of the four-motion fecd for sewing machinos. ‘Thiw patent was iasued Juno 15, 1852, and ts the niost valuable in existence, In this the fecd-bar or pea ts given a forward motion to carry tho cloth to the needle; 9 motion downward to re- lease the cloth from its grip, a back- ward motion to the extent of the length of the stitch, and finally an upward motion to takes fresb hold on thecloth, So valuable has been this four-motion feed that few or no clotn sewing-macbines are now mado without it. Isis owned by the sewing-machine combi- nation, which fs composed of the own- era of tho four leading machincs,—the Wheeler & Wilson, Wilcox & Gibbs, Singer, aud Howe,--and has served to bind the sowing-ms- chine mauufacturers together and enablod them to defy competition by force of the monopoly. Ay wae thia feature that the combination wished to further MONOPOLIZE YOR SEVEN TRARS by an act of Congress. ‘The inventor has realized 1875. neyoral mlllions for his invontion, Singer ad- mits that his patonte, which aro much loss im- portant, patd him €2,000,000 prior to 1870, vince which timo ho has not boen compelled to render an account. A monopoly of this feod motion for oven years more would he worth from. 10,000,000 to 490,000,000 to the owner, and would cost the peopla four times ox inich. Neatly a ton of petitions havo heon filed, asking that tho ortension be rofusod. A former Commin- sionor of Patents, Gen. Leggett, onco said that it would take one man, reading ten houre per day, sixty-fivo yenrs to road all of the ovi~ donce that haa been takon in regard to this ap- plication for an extension, Ono exhibit only makea tivelyo yolumos, cach an large oa Web- ster’a unabridged dictionary, all of which the Commissioner a9 once asked lo read betore ho Toftactl tho extension, ‘Tho tltiniato offect of this refusal to graut an extension wilt be to REDUCE THE PRICE OF BEWING-MACHINES as low a6 $20, though this will not come about for ‘couple of yoars, then othor patents expire, It is in ovidenco thatthe cost of tho average sew- ing-machine ia but $12, and that small manufac turora aro roquired to pay to the xowing-inachine combination ng much as $40 profit on each ma- chine manufsctured. I¢ is also o curious fact that Wheolor & Wilson sewing-machines can bo purchased In Europa and brought to this conntry for just ono-Lalf of ein they cost bere, in- cluding all costs of freight, duty, ete, tho reacon being that they lave no protection thera, any ous beiug allowed to make them.

Emory to tho War Department, in which he oxprossea STRONG DISAPPRODATION OF MAJ. NERIILL'S ACTION in makang ailidavits against citizens of Shrove- port, under which they were arroutod for allesot violations of the osfarcomont act. Gov, Kmory informed Merril that ho considered his porsonal appoarance ag prosecutor was a departure from (ue established rules of the servico, and mischievous jn ita tendonoy. Bforrill thereupon oxplained that his action waa duo to the fact that no citizen could havo mado those aflidavits excopt at the risk of bis life, and sub- mita sundry voluminous roporta dotailing tho Jawiess condition of affairs in tho Ted Rivor region.

Among tho papers ta the report of Lieut.-Col, Monty A. Morrow, who waa detailed by ‘Gon. Emory to make a thorough examination of tho condition of affairain tho Rea River country. lio saya that so far oa relates to the United States thero is not tho slightest disposition to oppose the General Governmont, but tha oppo- tition to the Stato Governmont is doter- mined and oxpreseed, and will manifest itaelf in open violence Whonever and wherever opportunity offers. Tia dissatisfaction{and dis- contont affect all departmonts of business, and tho whole aspect of tho country has .a look of poverty and neglect. The law has fallen into disregard and disrospect, and the Judges aro openly charged with corruption; United States Doputy Marshals have used United Statos sol- dlers in cases WHERE THERE WAS NO NECESRITY FOR THEM, — and in gomo parishes have discharged their duticn in au unnecesenrily hareb, if not crucl, manner. Uql. Morrow gives the following as his doep- seated convictions: Tho prosout Stato Govern- ment cannot maintain itself in power a single hour without the protection of Federal troops, and even with thia protection they will not be able to collect tho taxes and porform the func- tions of the Government. ‘Tho State Govern- mont MAS NOY THE CONFIDENCE O@ RESPECT OF ANY PORTION OF THE COMMUNITY. Furthor on, ho saya: “If expressions of tho people are to ve believed, (and I do bolievo thom,) thoro ia a very sincere devire to live quietly under tho protection of the Constitution of tho United States, and onjoy tho blessings of the Gatioua! Government ; butthere is no disguising the fact that the protection afforded by the Fed- eral Government to tho Government of tho progont Stato Executive Is the causo of bitter personal and political feoling in the hearts of nincteon-trentieths of tho white inhabitants of the State.” GEN, EMORY's TESTIMONY, In forwarding this report, Dec, 27, Gen. Emory says: ‘Tor nearly two yeara the condition of affairs has boon very precarious, sand tho State Government ‘has constantly shown itulf — unable cope) with =the dificalties of tho situation in which it ia pliced. ‘This stato of things ia daily growing ‘worse, and I commend the subject to your sori- ous consideration, ‘Cho mission of the army to keep the peace without the power of romoving the caunes which disturb it, has, I think, been carried as far a3 practicable, aud I therefore respectful- jy recommend that, if it can bo dono, the pow- ors of the military commander bo greatly in- ereasod, or that some other measure bo resorted to to obtain tho desired end.” GEN, BERMAN'S INDOBSEMENT. ied Sherman makoa tho following indorse- ment: Heapguantens oF thx Aasy, Br, Lours, Jan, 4, 1875, ‘This paper in mout reapectfully forwarded to tho Secretary of War with the request that be submit {for the personal perusal of the Hresilent, ¥ kuow of ne oficer of Col, Morrow's rank who is bet- ak and write of matiers ‘this, opinions sre entitled fo great’ consideration, I profess {a inva some knowledge of the poople of that section, both white and black, from long reaidence among then Deforo tho War, and soveral visita eluce, but I euall not intrude my opinion in the confustou in which the eut- dect is now enveloped.

IBWIN's CLOHING TESTIMONY. Tho examination of Irwin to-day disctoued lit- tle that was now, The Committvo for the most part wont over the old ground. The mowt soarobing questions failed toelicitany satisfactory: Teeponses ag to tho direction which the mausy Qoally took. The most significant admission was that Irwin acknowledged tho oxponditures Of $880,000 instead of 750,002, Irwin attaches more importance to tha servico of Iugham, of tho Inder-Ocean, that tho latter in his toati+ mony admitted.’ Ho seid that Ingham, Moran, and” Shorill rendered importunt servicow ot a critical time. That service wae after tho bill was dofested in the House and bo- fore it was brought up in the Heuate, The point to be ascertained was, what the majority was likely to bo against the bilt. ‘This informa- tion was necessary to determine the actlon with reference to & conference committeo. Theso three mon rendered important services iv that rogard by informing Irwin of the way in which certain mombors would voto. In this coonec- tion Irwin said emphatically that overybody eu~ ployed by him WENT OVER TUE LIST OF CONGRESSMEN WITH HIM, Tho special service for which Ingham was re- toned was the diflicult one of oxcertaining the probable vote of those who were njerkod ‘doubt fal" on tho general Wet, Xt was the understand. ing with eversbofy that they alonld nse thelr influence with their pertonal friends. Irwin gave Col. John W. Forney aomothing more to oxpinin, He raid that Rtockivell told bim to employ him (Forney), becausa bo thonght he vwonld help to keep Kam Randall” atill, Irwin ret at rest tho rumors to tho offect that the corrospondent Shaw received his $15,000 to dia- tribute smong other newspaper men, Irvinsaid emphatically that there was no underatanding of tho rort ; that tho monoy went ontircly to Shaw, upon tho recommendation of Stockwell ; aud that tho other newspaper men noithor knew of nor participated in any of this fund. This con- firms Shaw's tostimony, ‘Tho greater nunber of tha persons wore omplosod by Stockwell. Irwin corrected his tentimnony by showing that he gavo Whiting $66,000 inetead of $100,000. Ho gave the Committee no satisfactory information ab to THR USE SCNUMAKE MADE OF HIs £300,000. Ho only swore that it all went to him, aud that ho thought that ha was quite worth i, Irwin knew nothing of the story that the Doorkeopor, Morsey, had received the £11,009 for threo mem= ders of Congress, deducting $2,000 for uimeelf, He thought, bowsver, that Gchumaker must have employed somebody to aueint him, ay it was not likely that hu would go niono, A aolitary awe lamb (Irwin),upon the recoramendae tion of the Committos, was aubsequontly dis- charged from custody, but waa not excused from attendance ag witness. ‘The Committes did not hesitate to suggeat to him that they dis- Hoyed great portion of what he aaid. WAQES OF ALN, ‘Tho Pacific Mail Steamship Company, there ta littie doubt, will logo tho ad-tional subsidy weanted by tho act of 72 ‘Tho Tousa to-day _ susponded tho rulea and mado in order an amendment on tho Post-Oilice Appropriation bili to entirely repeal that act. The Company thuy far hax tot received ono dollur of the increased subsidy. ‘The Com- mittee on Appropriation, it sooms provable will mako the usual appropriations for the o nal subsidy, Gen. Gartiold, Chairman of tho Appropriation Committes, "to-day estisfled tho Committee ou Ways and loans that. there ia no evidonco — Lefore tho Appropriation Committee to cause them to ‘rofuse the usual appropriation for the original subsidy, No charges of corruption in counec- tion with securing tho first subsidy bavo yet boon made. The Committco was then under on entirely different management, Thore is a gon- cral belief in tho House, however, that the Va- cific Mail management from tho ontact bay been scandalous and dishonest, and thero will doubt- Jess be s motion to ropeal both subsidies. IRWIN LIRELY To RBCAPZ CRIMINAL, FROBECUTION, Tho District Siarney et this Dietrict,to whom tho contempt caso of Irwin was certified by tho Hpeuker, states that ho does not tind that tho Committee on Ways and Means iv the preseut Congress las any authority for making the in- vestigation. Tio has not, therefore, o legal Lauiu upon which to proceed against Irwin. BILL KING'S SPOILS, Minnesota people here confirm the theory that Dill King appropriated most of hia sharcof Pa- citic Mail monoy. Thoy sny that he returmed to St. Paul loaded down with money at that time, took up somo large mortgages, purchased a greater intercat in a Dowepaper, and bought an additional farm.

For instanco: It was of primo importaves to dotermino whotber it would bo best to have a direct yoto takon in tho Honso on concurring in the Senate amendment grant- img the enbsidy, or to have tho question referred toa Committee of Conference. Cormick bored the witness to death, and was paid to keep out of hia way. EX-GOV. RANDALL'S SERVICES wero of a genoral character. Ho kept thom in- formed of what was going on, and used his in- fuouce with hia porsonal and polifical friends, ‘Tho witnees employed J. W. Morney by the per- emptory order of Stockwell.
