He said he had not filed the per with the Clerk of the Houee, because of the dis- Eegeubed chira ter of 8 who took part in the @ importance of the subject. He ‘wished \the subject to be bronght directly before the Bicuse. This is not a question of local interest.—not a juestion between the citizens of and the Railroad pany. New York and all the West have an interest in it. For mapy days con panies of armed men, by threats of violegoe and bloodshed, have held and obstructed one of the great channels of commerce, of trade b: tween the West and East. or eight ad inter- tention of the whole country would have besc at once arrested, and the of the whole country commanded. The same of the constitution which confers pewor on this government to reps! invasion, also gives the co-relative Obligation to suppress inrurrection.

Mr. MoNam, (dem.) of Pa., remarked that the Legis- ature of Pennsylvania, about to assemble, would doubt Jess take the matter into consideration, so far as Erie is concerned.

The is are simply these :—The railroad passes through the goatee me ‘and the company was authorized by law to arcad at a guage of four fest eight inches. Ia GeBance of this law, the company laid down a six foot @, and, therefore, was the aggressor. He under the people of Erie are acting under legal advise, ‘and there will not be the slightest diffi sulty in enforcing thedecree of the court. The proceedings of the Indiana masting were Dased on an entire misapprehension. Mr. cm, (Coma ) of 8, C., said—It is one of those ac cidents to which you are subject, bec: ‘the institution of slavery there.’ It is only the beginning of the exd. If we can do anything for you we will, for we of the South are conservative We can oaly offer you our sympathy. It is one of the misfortunes to which you ‘are exposed, by having your whole population made up of freemen. jughter. ‘Mr. Incx, (whig) of Pa., begged to present the history of the difficulties. [pat & question of opder was raised, and he was denied the privilege. | The memorial wes referred, under the rule, to the Com- mittee on Military Affairs. RIVEKS AND BAR?ORS, Mr. Hovstox, ef the Committes on Ways and Means, moved that the estimates for rivers and harbors be transferred to the Committee on Commerce.
