Mr. Brair, (Union) of Va., inquired of Mr. Potter on what authority he yesterday predicated his charge of dis- loyalty against Judge Pitts, of Northampton oounty, Vir- givia, Mr. Porrur, (rep.) of Wis., teplied, on tho address o Judge Pitts to the Virginia Legislature at Kichmond, ‘The address was now read, in which Judgo Pitts refo to the action by the Legislature to depose him without giving him an opportunity for do’ence. Tho cousumma, tion of this would be manifestly unjust. He could only plead not guilty of disloyalty to the South, and doubted not he could triumprentiy vindicate himself from even every chargo his enemies and porsevutore might bring against him. He protested against being removed from office by extra constitutional means. DEBATE ON THR REPORT OF TRE GOVERNMRNE CONTRACE COM- mirras. The House then resumed the consideration of thereport of the select Committee on Government Contracts. Mr. Roscor L., Conxtiva, (rep.) of N. ¥., said he voted ogainst raising that committee. It seemed none could be 6o honest or eminent that it would be suitable to clothe them with the unheard-of power asked on that . It soemed untit to censtitute an advisory upervise questions of integrity relating to every dig the administration of departmental affairs, It secmed to him @ wrong commission to take into consideration the honesty or fraud of all feture tracts to be entered into with any department of the ent. It brought with it ve objections, and ‘gument could be found in its favor. Exporionce had demonstrated that every objcetion there made had been abundantly sustained by ike conduct of the eom- mittee, which had done grave and irreparable injustice both to individuals and classes, These, as we!! us nation, have suffered by the declarations of the o mittee. As this coramitiee was a pioneer experinient, and had turned out bicly, thoy could dispense with i ‘The gentieman (!'awes) had said the @ was indubitad. ovidence of fraud, well nigh, ina singic year, as much the current expenditures of the government during 1 administration which the peoben hurled from power bocause of its corruption, Now he (Mr. Conkling) re- marked that if any man was warranted in making that statement it would justify the people in resorting to any- thing but revelation to redress the wrong. The poisoned urcows, feathered by the franking privilege, were shot far and wide among the loyal States of the republic. Like other remarks and statements the gentleman (Mr. Dawes) made, however deliberately prepared, this was one, on mature resection, he-would be willing to recall. The committce had proceeded on ex parte testimony in secret, Fartics never wore informed they were to be tried, aud convicted, and stigmatized, and hung up to fester in infamy; and, a8 a case in point, bo said the cor mittee had priviiy and clandestinely gathered evidence against General Fremont to blast tis character aga citi- zon and soldier av the tite he was in command of an army. Thoy never informed General Fremont that he was aspersed, nor gavo him the names of the witnesses against him, and they aiforded him wo opportunity for defence. What good, Mr. Coukling asked, had the commitice done to offs:t the harm: He was not awsxte that one gingle fraud had been developed by the commiitee which remained unearthed at the tine they pretended to dig teup. Mr. Conkling asked the Speaker what time re- mained to him. ‘The Srraxen replied, eighteen minutes.

If frauds were detected, they went before the conniry, and the country hurled from power the men who bud com. mitied them. What was then sald in reiation to theso matiers? Why, when we aunounced to the coun try that these frauds were committed, the party in power said thet the frauds’ wero committed by men for whose acts the party was not responsible, What was our reply to thist What the reply of the republicans? It was, to be sure you would not be respousibie in the first instance, but when your investigating committee disclosed all the facts, and placed the particuinrs on record, instead of your coming ‘out and voting upon them, and cénsuring the parties who committed them, you are found on the record supporting and sustaining them. Ido not propose to place myself in that predicament. When i suspeet a republican of committing a fravd, 1 feel yoetly mores inclined to expose and punish him than B would a demo- erat, for he brings disgrace aad dishonor upon the ‘party to which he belongs.
