Bpectal Dispatch to The Triduna, Srninarisiy, 1ll, May 24.~The oxcitement orer the Revenue bill kept about 120 members {a town, who put in an appearauce this morning. 1o count nosca on that measure, and meanwhile exch to struggle with each other for the floor in order to move to tako up his particular pet messure—the “my bill" of each of them. The arder of proceedinga may be described simply as achorus of yella and shouts—*¢Mr, 8peaker," joterrupte<l by hammering of the gavel on the Speaker's desk, and roll-calls which resulted (n the passage of every bill called up. Meanwhile all were waiting for the renowal of the conteat on e TUE INTANGIBLE-PIOPERTY AMENDMENT tothe Revenue bill. It was, all felt, the final stuegle,~to be short, sharp, and declsive. Mr. Rowett, from tho Conference Committee, reported the DIl back with recommendation that the louse concurin the Seuzte amend- ments. Mr. Morrison, of Morgan, made an argument agalnst the bil), {o which be reflucted severely upon TR CHANGE OF MIND which he alleged had coma over the House, or a portlon of it, upon the bill. 1le did not say so diroctly, but intimated that the chunge was ot Jesst open to suspicton that it had been Induced by questionable means., Mr. Rowett rose to anuestionof privilege, and hotly responded. The first Conference, Committée had not Liad couraze to report what they woull do, The present Conference Cowm- mitteo had dared say what they would do, aud had promiptly reported the bill. Amidst much excitement Mr. Rowett moved the previous question. M. Phillips, of Montzomery, ruse to s ques- tlon of priviletze, and sald A CORNUIT PROPOSITION HAD BEEN MADE TO 1IN tovote for tho bill, Ho offered a resolution for the appolntment of n special commitico of three tolnguire and report what corrupt means, if m‘, ad been used to seeuro the passage of the i This was followed by a tremendous scneation, dorin whica Mr. Powell aruse and sabil he had wen approached, 1o had been told by o cer- fain purty that there wus a bet of 81,000 that the Bbill woulil pase. If he (Powell) would vote for the bill the bet would be divided with him, THE EXCITEMENT WAS NOW TREMENDOUS. When [t subsided a little, Mr. Phitlips’ resolu- tlon was passcd without opposition. The motlon of Mr, Ruwett to order the Lm-luns question was then put and lost—nyes, 3 noes, B—Indleating that tho bill was loaing support, and that the triends of the bill DID NOT PROFOSE TO HAZARD 1T by putttng it upon passaps under the cxelte. ment created by the statement of Mesars, Phile lips adtt Powelll MA-Morris eald ic wanted the bill to have & fairchance. Ho wanted falr play upon [t, and dia not want its friends fntlmidated, This thing of taxation of capital stock was never hearil of untfl the Granger oxcltcment swept over the State, Mr, Juck asked if tho Le; s Granger or a Rapublican Leglslature.
