Mr, Watson, (rep), moved that the bill be mdefinately postponed, and speakiug on the motion said: **This schemo, although origin- ating with the medpendent, s branded all over with the carmarksof democracy, and whilo it was but natural that theso wo_ par- ties snould affiliate, pendents ourht to be able to see *he trap set for thom by their allios and confederates.” Dobson (ind. ) believed that tne voice of the people could be better expressed when the solection was made from congressional dis- tricts than from the whole stateand reminded the people that o president mnow sat in the presidential chair who had not received o majotity of the popular vote.

Luixcory, Neb, March 21.—[Special to Tie Bik.|—The deadlock in the senate aud the general feeling that no further legislation of importanco will bo enacted has had a very demoralizing effect on the house. Nearly ail of the morning session was spent in frivolity and the house indulged in scenes not at all in keeping with the dignity of legislators, When the roll call on a motion to indefin itely postpone abill providing for choosing presidentiul electors by con gressional dis- tricts, was pending Mr. Cornish desived to explaln_ his vote, but was met by a storm of good natured objections from all parts of the house. Ho persevered, however, and M. White finally incased his head in a waste basket to the infinite delipht of both sides of the house, These proceelings greatly amused the lobby, and the galleries, but were apparently too much for the nerves of a woman named Poden, who rose quickly from her plice, and slipped up to theside of Mr. Cornish sayin, “Now Mr. Cornish, you know youare mis behaving yourself, and you had bettersit down.” This duty having been performed amid a storm of cheers from all parts of the house, she proceeded to tho spealer’s desk, and a monished the astonished presiding ofticer that he should at least endeavorto keep some semblance of order and volunteered ner assistance o that dircetion, Walking down the aisle she stovped at the seat of Irank White and procseded to lecture him upon the propricties of life in general and of legislative assemblies in particular. By this time the cheers and shoutsand vig- orous hand clappiog goingon in all parts of tho room completely drowned all attempts at recoguition, but the lady was undismayed, and looking up with the air_and manner of one who had performed u disagreeable but necessary duty, slipped quietly behind tho railing and disappeared from view. The log- isiators breathed a sigh of weliof and the gavel of the speaker onco more commanded attention. Bouncing the Lobby. Laxcory, Neb, March 21.—[Special to Tur Bee.|—A bombshell was exploded in the house today by the mtroduction by Mr. W son of the following resolution : Whereas, A gang of lobbyists has Infectea this sesslon of the legislature from the begin- ning, resorting to unlawful and disreputable means to gain their ends tosubvyert the will of the people, therefore be it Resolved, That the speaker of this house be requested to enforce the rules e erning the admission 1o the floor of the house nd that all Tobby Ists be ejected.
