They' tureatened all day yesterday that they would to-day commeuce a filibustering movement which would result {n defeating the sendiug of the South Carolina case to the Electors’ Commission ULefore ‘Wedoesday. These attempts were made this mornfag and continued throughout the day, but they were beaten at every point by a large” majority, and at 6:15, after a continuous ses- alon of more than eight hours, the certificates of the Bouth Carolina case were referred to the Commisston, This' result might bave been reached sooner but for the unfortunate and stu- pid porliamentary blunders committed in two or threc lustances by Republicans. The day ‘was full of complicated, dilatory, and Slibuster-~ Jing motlous, Early fn the morhing .the Reyo- lutlonists were MADE VERY JUBILANT by a ruling of Speaker Randall that the testi- mouy in the Peonsylvania case could be read, and by s victory which they gained (n sustainiog ' that ruling upon an appeal from the Cialr, The motlon to read was carrled by yeas, 183; nays, 116,—only thirteeg Democrats vo‘tg with the Republicans, At this stage of the proceedings many Republicans wera discouraged, and feared that the revolutionists in the Bunday fn. terim had succeeded in strengthening thelr forces. This vote, however, was mnot a test of thelr strength, as many Democrats who other- wise would have voted with tho.Republicans preferred to vote with thelr party,since the fssuc bad been made on the reading of a comparative- ly brief plece of testimony that it ‘would bave taken much Icss time to read than to call tho roll upon, and for «the further reason that in making thelr objections the Republicans were unncccu'ufly Irritating and offenslve.

Committee, for which ¢ or three days would be required. The attempt was uot made to read this &s & part of the objection in the Jolnt Conventics, but it will undountedly be made {u the House whea the case i3 returned from the Tribuoal. The fact that the manu. script of the enttre Bouth Carolins testimony has been withdrawn from the Government Printing Oflice by the Democratic Commiittes conflrma this theory. 4 . ‘ TUX TEST VOTA OF TUK DAY was on the mot{on mads by Poppleton, of Oblo, after tho sesslon of the Jolut Convention, that the House take & receas untll to-morrow at 10 o'clock.. The Oblo Democrats, especlally those who have been zcjected by thelr constituents, aro the most conspicuous in thelr attempts to lead the dlibustering revolutioulsts, This mo- tion was rejected by a volo of 183 yess to 78- nays, The result showed that, on any test vote upon & motion of a really Hlibustering charac- ter, the anarchists have not Increased thelr stroogth, ‘Thelr highest vote last week was 63, and they did not exceed this number to-day.

RIIODE ISLAND IN THE BENATE. ‘The {nsincerity of the objections to Rhode Isl- and wasdemonstrated by the fate they met with io the Benate, * Not a single vote was given to sustaln them.

The Commission ssscmbled by the light of candles as soon as the Joint Conventfon had broken up, and the oath of office was adminls- tered to Bcnator Kernan, who was chosen by the Senate to-day to take the place of Senator Thurman. Unly sbout a score of spectators came jnto the court-room. The Secretary began calling the objections to the South Carolina re- turns, but Judge Clifford, finding that none of his assoclates cared to bLear thewn, Lhad him de- slst. Representatives Ilurd and Cochrane, both of the filibustering faction, appeared ns objectors to the Hayes return, and Representative Lawrence and Senator Cliristlancy 0s objectors to the Tilden certlfl- cate. Inreply to inquirics as to who the coune scl would be, It was nonounced that Judge Mathews and Judge Shellabarger would repre- gent the Republicans.

The Congres- slonal members are willlng to st late, but the Judges, all of them old men and wedded to the easy-going bLablts of the beneh, don't want to do any work after sundown if they can help it. 1t is understood among the Commissioners that the pending case will be disposed of by to-mor- row night, aud that «bls may be done the Re- publican’ objectors and counsel will Umit thely spceches to a bare statement of the facts upon which they rest. The Democratic objectors do not present o case upon which it will be possible to make Py 5 s MUCH SENIOUS LEOAL ARGUMENT, and if the counsel and objectors of that party occupy the six hours allowed thewn by the rules, it will be only to kill tima. It is not alleged In tho objections that the Tilden Electors wers chosen, but only that the electlon was {llegal and yoid. One reason assigued for this clalm fa that there was uo registey of votes as required by the Constitution. If this argument is good, then HAMPTON IAS NO CLAIM to the Governorship, and Chamberlain holds over, Another reason is that there were United States Deputy Marshals at tho polls, and so there were lu Now York and many other States whose votes the Dunocrats are not protesting against counting. A third objection s, that there is mo 8tate Gevernment republivan in form {n South Camlinz, which, it it were true, would warrant, the very military fnterference alleged fn the foregolag objection.

After the vote un the Rhode 1sland objections, one of the tilibus- ters moved a recess untll to-morrow ot 10 o'clock.
