Mr. Scort—I was in no way interested in its passage torough Congress.

ADVANTAGES TO THE GOVERNMENT. To meet this obiigation the company places avery bond created under tae mortgage tae | ‘treasury of the United States, and pledges all its | Ancome and property of every nature, to provide | ten days before the maturity of each coupon the Moneys necessary to place the Secretary of tne Treasury in funds to pay this interest, without | by asking the appropriation of @ dollar irom the government.

Why did they not attack ‘oth roads? How came they to speak of the Mem- | phis and El Paso? Mr. Scorr—aAs before stated, for the purpose of ereating, by implication, in the public mind an tm- eo that the Texas and Pacific road was con- ted with the corporation that failed some years before tue Texas and Pacific was cuartered.

But they are so tar from being true that any man who will take the time to examine them certaimly ‘would not ve affected by such stavements. QUESTION—A great many people, Whose names Mave been connected with the El Paso sabject, Mave denied that they received any money.

THE FIGHTING LEGISLATURE. 4 CORRECT ACCOUNT OF WOLFE’S INSUBORDINA- TION—THE DEMOCRATIC VOTE OF CENSURE JUSTIFIED BY PARLIAMENTARY LAW. HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 6, 1875, To THe EDITOR OF THE HEBALD:— As the accounts of the “late unpleasantness” Ip the Pennsylvania Legislature which have ap- peared in tne democratic dally papers of the country have been branded by the partisan repub- lican press as “lies from the whole cloth,” and as | an dttempt was made to impeach the veracity of the HERALD’s correspondent in the House of Rep- | Tesentatives yesterday, he desires, without enter- ing into the details of the debate on parliament- ary points, to give a succinct and truthful accoant of just what happened in the Lower House of the Pennsylvania Legisiature on last Monday night and proceedings subsequent thereto, THE CONDUCT OF MR. WOLFE, The House was considering the admissibility of | the petition of citizens of Lancaster county, pro_ testing against the admission of D. P. Rosenmil- | ler, republican member returned from that dis- | trict. An appeal from the decision of the Chair, that the petition could be legally admicted, was ot sustained on a call of the yeas and nays, when Mr. Wolfe, of Union, republican, raised the further point of order that it required a two- This point he submitted in writing, simply asa point of order, @nd not a8 an appeal, as its form shows, and im- mediately, before the point was decided, began to discuss it. Mr. Lusk was in the Chair, (Accord- ing to parliamentary Jaw a point of order cannot be discussed until a decision has been made upon | it by the Speaker and ay appeal, signea by two members, is entered against the decision. The Sppeal may then be discussed.) Tue proceedings from this point were as Jolliows :— Mr, Wotre—Mr. Speaker, I desire to state and I do hope that the gentlemeh on the other side of the House Mr. Faunce (interrupting)—Mr. Speaker. is it the point of order to which the gentleman 18 speaking? Mr. Woire—It is the point of order I am speaking to, As I was saying, the gentlemen on the other sice of the House will remember that in establish- ing precedents those precedents, are for the whole House, and however untavorably they may seem to strike Us at one time they may rise upin judgment ‘ainst us at another. ir. Tattey—I rise to a point of order—that the gentle. man from Union (Mr. Wolfe) has presented a point of | order, that the Chair has not yet decided upon the point of order and that the gentleman is row discussing it ‘The Srraxer tem. (Mr. Lose)—Well, 1 would decide the point of order not well taken. Mr. Woure—I am in order now, I suppose? Several Mempurs—No, you are pot. The point is not debatable. Mr. Wore—Well, that is true. [Ihe Speaker ot tne House Qtr, Patterson, of Alle- gheny), here resumed the chair.) Mr. Woure (continuing/—Mr. Speaker, if I remember Properly. the gentleman who occupied the chair just fore ¥ou decided that the motion was carried. 1 then presented my point as an appeal, that the Chair was not sustained because it required a two-third vote to sustain the Chair. That is what the point I presented amounts to; and { think I am in order. The Sreacer—The genticman is out of order. Mr. WoLre—Mr. Speaker — The Sreaxxa—ihe gentleman is out of order. Mr. WoLre—Mr. Speaker— Mr. Tattxy—I move that this Honse do now adjourn. ope— Vanious Memszks (vociferating)—Give us the yeas and : Lcall for the yeas and nays © By THE RevorteR—These calls for ere interspersed with cries of “Mr. the yeas and Speaker:,” Tho Srraksf (addressing the gentleman from Union, Mr, Wolfey—The gentleman will taxe bis seat. ir. WoLre—l will Dot take my seat. Tux Srraxer—The Sergeant-at-arms will rake the | gentleman in Mr. Wourn— ge. he won't Several members reiterated **No, he won't!” At this point, a scene of disorder ensued. during which the Speaxse put the question upou the ‘motion of the fenteman, rom Delaware (ir. Talley), which was jecided to be carried. The House accordingly adjourned. This is the correct pnhonograph‘c report of the- procedings. THE SCENE OF DISORDER. Of this seene 01 disorder we wish to speak a “litt more fuily. In response to the command of | the Speaker the Sergeant-at-Arms came waiking down the central aisie of.the hail to where Mr. Wolfe sat. As be @pproached Mr. Wolfe that | gentieman rose in bis seat, protesting against | arrest, at the same time, with his arm ratsea over bis head, gesticulating and pointing soward the Bpeaker’s spit he ejaculated peri! which sounded liké “Go for him!” “go for him!” but your correspondent, will not venture to state as a fact | shat this the exact expression used | Mr. Wolfe, as he did not catch the woras clearly in the confusion which at once en- sued. The members on both sides of the House leit their seats and crowded around Mr. Wolfe. At this juncture, when everything was excite- | ment, it Was alleged by a few bystanders thai a | pisvol was drawn in the hands of some person un | nown in the crowd. MR. WOLFE'S DEFENCE. The day following the trouble Mr. Wolfe, being acknowledge that he was wrong, and desired to be considered as standing upon the phonographic account of the proceedings, and not upon the legal minutes of the House. By the phonographic | account he claimed it was shown that the Speaker pro tem. (Mr. Lusk) had ruled the | point raised by Mr. Talley not well | taken, instead of his (Mr. Wolfe’s), as. by the journal shown, and consequently be had a Tight to the floor. Now any impartial reader, acquainted with parliamentary law, cannot faii to see that what Mr. lailey, when ne rose, saw ft to Gesignate a “point of order,” could, ander parlia- | mentary law, be considered nothing but a sugges- tion, a8 there was already & written point of | order, that of Mr. Wolfe, pending. And when the | Speaker pro tem., Mr. Lusk, prompted to a com- prehension of tbe situation of the matter before the House by the second part of the suggestion | of Mr. Talley, “that tue chair has not yet Gecided upon the point of order” ig’ the gentle. man from Union), said:—Well, | would deci tue point of order not well taken,” there can de | | DO ovber inference than that it was the only real | pointof order before the House, which was de- cided—to wit, that of she gentieman from Union, Mr. Wolle, THE RECORD. ‘The journal of the House and the phonographic Teport in the Kecord, upon the latter of whicn Mr, Wole claims to stand, are precisely alike, with the exception that the journal, being the oMcial minutes of the House, takes no cognizance of the remarka of Mr. Tailey, as it does not of tne sug- gestions or remarks of any other member which were not legally admissible as or in the shape of bg nad actions. And when the friends of ir. Wolfe, the most conspicuous among whom was Hon. Joho Mitchell, of Tioga, who sets him up @8 & paragon of og nrg A pertection, at- tempted to amend the Journal by inserting upon it the suggestion, or, as the gentleman himself termed it, the point of order of Mr. Talley, they Were attempting to stuitify the legal record of the House to make it conform to an unparitamentary action of a single member, for even though Mr. Woife had been entitled to the floor his refusal to take his seat when ordered to do so by the Speaker was unpariiamentary. A safe precedent, indeed, was ft that the gen- tleman from Tioga (Mr. Mitchell) was desirous of < | ‘| railroad before RAPID TRANSIT. UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS IT WILL PROBABLY BE ACCOMPLISHED—THE CITY NOT TO BUILD THE ROAD. Rapid transit ie coming out of the dim perspec- It seoms to be advancing to the end of the nue, where 16 will become a bold, definite Ogure in the picture of the general prosperity of ew York. More has been done to urge it forward within the past two weeks than during all the years that have elapsed since the subject of the necesstty of facilities for edy travelling through this city was first debated. The people who have always desired to have rapid transit made a valu- able fact have been educated to @ certain degree th during the past two weeks, and they now begin to regard with contempt those things which have hitherto been obstacles to the accomplishment of this wish. It is wonderful that such things could have been hindrances for so long @ time—that the people have sat idly for years while lymphatic inventors, conniving politicians and anscruputous rail- road men bave “juggled”? the question of rapid transit and prevented the establishment of a rail- way to overcome the most pressing need of the metropolis, It was @ grand idea of Mr. J. M. Drake to appeal to the people to take the matter mv their own hands so far as they can, Grand not, because Mr. Drake's project 1s one that commends itself to the minds of prosperous peopie, but on account of the appeal that proclaimed it having revived the pop- ular interest in the subject of rapid transit. The indications at present are that the committee of gentiemen who were appointed at the meeting in the Chamber of Commerce on Monday last will not beable to procure pledges for more than & tithe of the sum of $3,000,000, with which it isnow proposed to “subsidize” some responsible com- pany to begin the construction of a rapid transit some independent, wealthy association will start the work. At last accounts not more than $75,000 had been piedgea to the ‘subsidy? or “deferred stock’? pan, and a part of this sum was pledged under conditions that may not be fuifliled. Tne most important of all the meetings that bave been held recently for the discussion of tne subject of rapid transit was the session of the As- sembly and Aldermanic committees on Saturday last, and the two most important speeches that have been made auring the debates of the past two weeks were uttered at that session. They were those of Mr. Wheeler H. Peckham and General Daniel Butterfield, They settied, or seem to have settled, that the tate an idea, which bas been strenuously upheid, shali be death and condemnation. The idea alluded tol is that which declares rapid transit to be something which private capitalists can never achiéve in the lace oi the great opposition to it, ‘This idea has become firmly fixed in the minds of mauy ardent wisuers for a railway on whica trains can run rapiily, and, a8 @ resuit, they have reached the conviction that the city alone can build such a road, and should at once be em owered by the Legisiature to do 80. Accept Ing the sew words and references in Mr. Peckham’s speech a@ truthful, though not studied, it is evident that such gentlemen have deceived themselves, And Mr. Boyd’s arguments, to which Mr. Pecknam replied, appear to indicate that some deceived themselves willingly aiter studying the constitution. Even if Mr. Peckham had not demonstrated that the city cannot legally be empowered to lay down ratiroad ti , Gen- eral Butterfield’s remarks would have suaken somewhat the belief that only the city can build @ rap:d transit railway. General But terfield’s statements bear the mark of” sincerity. His scheme is approved by and will be supported with the money of several capitalists who represent more tuan $25,000,000, and they, if @ chance 1s given them, will bid high for the iran- chise of an elevated railway, for iailure to build which they will forieit $500,000, If Mr, Peckham’s statements are correct the Legislature must neces- sarily pass a general railroad law under whieh every Company qill have a chance to bid for the right to bulid a rapid transit railway.

As the morning wore on people commenced to stir themseives, and the usual scenes of a cold winter's day in New York were presented, It being Sunday church goers were in tne ascend- ant, and even they hurried through the frozen Btrcets as though piety were a martyrdom. The cars were crowded, as the cold wind made walking positively painful, and many were the complaints made by saffering passengers regarding the insufficiency of accommodation and the lack of heating arrangements. It was fortunate, how- ever, that the streets were comparatively clean. The recent warm rain did the work tn a few hours more thoroughiy than a dozen Boards of Police Commissioners could have effected it during tae entire winter, and there was nothing to im- pede the progress of venicies. The merry ring of sleigh bells was indeed missing, but 1n its stead was heard the solemn, deep rumble of the car wheels over the irosted rails, The tem- perature at noon yesterday was twelve degrees and at six P, M. eleven degrees, but she easterly Wind made it seem much colder, Aga@a rule the attendance at the churches was silm, as the fire- side seemed espectaliy tempting when one looked out into che wintry landscape.

The greater portion of young New York seemed to be taking an interest in the skating carnival, and during the day a vast multitude enjoyed themselves in the heartiest possible manner. Many present, it ts true, were of that class who are alway* skating when there is plenty of good ice, but besides them were those who had not be- fore been of the ponds this season, making the occasion with them one of much gayety, . | by water to the amount of about $500. tion of those unfortunate persons whose avoca- | crowd began to gather, and continued to aug- ment antil near five in the afternoon, an hour prior to “closing up’? on Sundays, a rule some skaters deem 8 little arbitrary, but is right, when all things are considered. The boys that work in stores, oMces aad factories were first to arrive, coming fully equipped, and started the ‘ball’ in & delightful manner without delay. Then a few young ladies came rusDing into the waiting rooms set apart for their use, and, with skates fitted snug and nice, darted off with faces ali aglow with the ruddy colors of health, Next the aduits began to appear, and though the landscape around and about was bai cold and cheeriess, they evi- dently thought the Park was an exceeding! pleasant spot, simply because tuere was eXce! lent skating to be had for the seeking. And 80 every car route leading to the Park brought ‘resn Acessions of those enthusiastic m the pleasure of the pastime. ‘The assemblage was very like many that have gathered there before, but the utmost order and decorum were observed all day. Consequently thorough and legitimate enjoyment was universally had by each and every individual present. At least the spectators go concluded, as Lappy faces were on every band. “Isn’t this splendid,” said Kiuy to George. “Ain't yer glad yer camer”? shouted Jakey to Ned, or similar eXclamations, were heard on every hand during the entire after- noon, proving conclusively what a treat the occa- sion was to all participating in the fee ge oy recreation. Then again, ‘Come, Tommy!’ couk have been heard from a mother to her young boy, a she prepared reluctantly to leave tne g: and festive scene, but invariably came ¥ entreating response, ‘Please let me stay a little longer, mother; just one more skate around the ponds,” and, seemingly giad of the excuse her- self, the Mother gave consent.

Thus the sport went on from morning until night, and the buzz of joyous intercourse and the music of steel-clad feet on the ice, and tne laugh- ter of merry voices gave animation to a scene not easily forgotten. Tne ice now is in magniticent condition, and the carnival wul doubtless continue jor several days.
