Mil. POTTER'S REPORT, Mr. Potter bias submitted the report of the majorityjof his committee to the House. The necessary Dbjects of the inquisition, the complication of the 1 subject arid the' time and ground cov cred, make it 4 long out. Perhaps no member' of.thc. House w is more fitted than r. Potter to so1 ma ,pear s as to make an wicked Republicans in ze things ap- exhibition of contrast with innocent and saintly Democrats. But he iailed. ' He says that never was there such an orderly, peaceful, 'fair and,, honest .electica .as occurred inj Louisiana in 1870. The desperate attempts, of ' Re publicans to drive Democrats into bull dozing the colored voters were in vain. His party would not have done so if they could, and they knew there was no need of itj. So the' determined to try the effect of seducinj; the negres by y arts and blandishments into the sup port of the fiDemocra ic candidates. They j went through the s state, and or ganized clubs in which joth races were thoroughly mingled. They pleaded the cause of the political equality of the negrcj with more zeal th: in Republican's themselves. They eve 1 went to the ; extent of advocating: equality in the theatres and other puhljie places. This . uddcu friendship - brought according to Mr, Potter, the great body of the negroes the siipport of he Democratic ticket. MvJch the same ground is taken in t egard to Florida, i Those who can be- iieverthe faithfulness of the picture presented by Mr. Potter, can believo anything. Tfjiat any approach to social equality with the coldred people was offered by: Louisiana Democrats is sim - ply incredible. " They do not recognize his political Quality.

Mr. Speaker : I rise to a question of personal privilege. J In the New York Tiiees of the 27 ult., which reached here yesterday, there appears an artinle in regard to myself which is so grossly libellous and sianci- erous, that J leel caiieu upon, in to myself, and the good people whom I have so long had, the honor to prepfesent on this floor, thus publicly to notice it. The charge made in the limes, T&t. Speaker, is that I robbed the state by drawing r double mileage for fuyself. This charge, I pronounce a wilful, deliberate and malicious falsehood. The simple tacts, as they appear are that, in .November, 1876, when I came ut to attend the sittings of the uenerai Assemoiy, i Drongni; ro wj mA 'tv thA fiiirt.inn rpt.nrn of that J J -r - county, and delivered them to the Sec retary of State, as will appear from the following certificate : State of Norrh Carolina, ) Office of Secretary of State, X This is to certify that V. V. Richard- son. ior tueouenuuivumuiuus i,uuutj, delivered to me two sealed packages, said to contain the election returns ot State officers and Electors. (Signed) W. H. Howerton, - Sec'y of State. Now, Mr. Speaker, the Sheriff being by law entitled to mileage for making said returns, whether done iu person or by proxy, I obtained from the ..Auditor warrant, jor tiC bhentf, lor UlC amount ot money to which the tohenn g -nfitlp,fi Affpr pnHnra nc nn this warrant that it was for the Sheriff, I drew the monet from the Treasury an 01 wuicu appears irom me louowmg certificates : AuprroR's Office. Raleigh, N. C., March 1,1879. I certify that the records of this office show this, that V. V. Richardson! received a warrant for the Sheriff of Columbus county for the 'amount off forty-four dollars and sixty cents oa account of election returns made in November, 1876. (Signed) Samuel L. Love, Auditor of State. Y per A. J. Partin, Clerk. . ) ' Treasurer's Office : Raleigh, N. C, March 1,1879 J. I certily that a warrant was drawn by the State Auditor on the Treasury of North Carolina for the sum of forty four dollars and sixty cents, in favor of V. V. Richardson, for the Sheriff of Columbus county. (Signed) J. M. Worth, State Treasurer. Mr. Speaker, I accounted to the Sheriff of Columbus county for the amount of this warrant. T The habits of Sheriffs to make re tdrns to the Secretary of State, and to make settlements 'with the Treasurer, and to draw pay for such services, through the representatives from their re spective counties; is well established and long recognized in JNorth Carolina, as will appear by reference to the records in the several departments of the State Government. The Very fact that the gentlemen named in V the 27mes7 article had thus put themselves on the publsc trecord?, would have been sufficient to convince any honest man that nothing was further from their thoughts than corruption. But the Raleigh correspondent ' of the Times' was not honest, nor did he desire the truth. Evil speaking, a perversion of the truth, and slandering, seemed to be the objects sought after. I do therefore denounce the writer of the article in the Times and the instigator of this article, Jas wilful slanderers arid per verters of the truth ' I would have called the attention of the House to the matter last night, had it not been for i the reason that I was unable Sto obtain a copy of "the New York Tims which contained the libellous article to which I refer. -me; vaughax's speech. I Mr. Vaughan stated that as his name was used in connection with the other gentlemen meutionod in the article referred to by the gentlemen from Columbus, he thought it proper to make a statement about the matter. That the article was brought to his at tentjon latelast evening, and that he took occasion to : explain hls coime tion with the matter in a slvtrt ariicie wnicn appeareu in one ui the citv papers this morning. He now desired to repeat what he then stated, that he 1 conveyed to the city the election returns for toe Sheriff of Alleghany couniy, receivea ine amount to wnich luZu rl ttUUTLuu"r , oauic' ;uc d,ld th" in accordance with a custom inat uaa as. n was- miormed by the i . - . - y rv"-v fP their earliest knowledge of jegu- Ja"Te matter oi memoers ot the Legis- I tr.A iUi tbhenlts. 4He only deaired o state further that he had" no knowledge who was vthe author of the article in the New York Times or the instigator thereof, but de- sired tf that thq imputation, so far , x0 hh.uwwiucu. vurxupuon tions they would have been in posses containedm said article, was Jalse as sion of material to form an undisputed hell ttsdms false. . judgment.

In October 'the publication of the cipher dispatches in the Tribune show ed conclusively that tlio very men who had been loudest in their denuncia tions of the tribunals belore whom they had iailed had themselves en deavored to corrupt with money those very tribunals. At that moment the accusation ceased to be the assertions and opinions of honest men, and be came the slandera of foiled and 'beaten subjorners.ol corruption. The country, which had been deceived by the ap kdenand his agents, began to realize parent earnestness and honesty of Mr. Marble had written and Pelton circu lated. ! This fabric of alleged fraud thus, fallen was what the report of the majority is endeavoring to build up azain and upon the old foundations. No wonder, then, that they preferred to make a separate report on the ciphers. When Ike parties to the at tempted briberies were put upon the stand the v' were forced to admit the receipt and transmission of the crim inating despatches, each and all ot them. Colonel Pelton, whose appear ance before the committee' was really pitiable, seemed to have been selected to pear the largest share ot the buraen. Mr, Manten Marble occupied a dit fPrht sitnati Sbw :?1878 high toned ri situation. He had prior to Oe taken a conspicuously high toned position. He had written the Ark and Shekinah letter, and had otherwise conducted himself loftily before mankind. He could hot, there fore, avoid an attempt to preserve him self, jit was not for him to take the bold ! position of Mr. Smith Weed that it was right to rescue stolen goods from robbers. Such an ark of refuge would have wrecked him long before reachinsr Ararat. Nevertheless the committee had two propositions to buy the Florida Returning Board, in his own liand writing) two replies of Pel ton and his own rejoinder. These he was obliged to admit, and also to admit the "Substantial" accuracy of the tran3 lations. His explanation of the two incriminatins: despatches which the committee had, and a possible third one which the committee did not have', was itnat no sent tnem as danger uaUghter with whiclthe audience grcet- ed this explanation Mr. Marble will probably never forget. They did not intend, however, to- comment upon them. The evidence that Mr. Tilden was ignorant of these transactions was, limited to the denials of Mj. Tilden and Colonel Pelton, and .that the latter should endeavor to shield his uncle, upon whom he was dependent, was natural, but the idea that this penniless man, living in the house and sitting at the Lvcry table of his Wealthy uncle (Mr. Tilden) should havej conducted negotiations involving such large sums without word or hint to the man most deeply interested or to anybody else could not for a inoment be entertained by candid men. If Col PeltO-n's story be true he must be re moved from the category of knaves to that bf fools; but 'the men who con ducted the campaign of 187G as acting secretary of the Democratic National Committee was not a fool, nor did Mr. Tilden after election centre all his in terest in the hands of a fool. Mr. Til den's denial was of course to be ex pected. Precisely what the arrange-' ment was iy wiucn mr. niaen was kept posted as to the doings of his agents, and yet left in condition to make a general denial if he was so left-pthe Cbmmittee probably shall never know. gAgainst these denials are set all the fact3 and circumstances 'of the case. The men who went south Messrs. Woolley, Marble and Smith Weed were on terms of the closest political and personal intimacy with himj They were selected by his nep hew furnished with a cipher which contained ample substitution words, fitted for the yery transactions for which they were afterward U3ed. One at least of them had an interview with Mr. I Tilden before his departure. It was arranged that Woolley and Smith Weed, who were pretty well known, should send their telegrams to Have me)Ter; while:'' Mr." Marble, heretofore of good repute, should send' to 15 Gramercy Park. i It may be said that if Mr, Tilden had contemplated wrong he would notihave had despatches sent to his house: and yet,; if they were in a cipher known to the (National Committee, he would not want them to go to that body His only fear would be, not that the des patches would fall into the hands of those who could not read them, but into the hands of those who could. It has been urged in Mr. Tilden's behalf that as soon as he became aware ot the South' Carolina negotiations he promptly suppressed them, and they were assed to draw the inference that he was guiltless of all. Had these transactions ceased when Hardy Solo' mons went home, had Pelton been dis charged from his plenary superintend ence of Tilden's affairs, there might nave Been some snow ot reason lor this plea. But Mr. Pelton remained in full control. The Florida negotiations went on.i The attempted bribery in Oregon followed; all under the guidance of the reserved nephew, Mr. Pelton.

The minority were driven to the conclusion that if Mr. Tilden had told all he knew of these transac The The lateness of the commencement of the inquiry precluded thoroughness. An Outburst of Eloquence. While the traitors and rebels of 1S61 to 1865, who have been returned to the United Senate from the. rebellious state '. were eulogizing Jeff Davi3 the other evening with, remarkable zeal and devotion, they aroused the atten tion and ire of Senator Chandldr, and instead of swinging the British lion by his tail he seized the late rebels ' and handled them for a few minutes in the followingstalwart manner : ' Mr. President :., Twenty years ago, I, in company with Jefferson Davis, stood up in this chamber and with him swore $$3, SSSSRS? Mr. Jefferson Davis came direct from I 'the Cabinet of Franklin Pierce into the Senate of the United States and took the oath with me to be faithful to the Government. During four years 1 sat ; in this body with Jefferson Davis and saw . the preparations going - on from day to day for the overthrow, of this Government With treason in his heart and penury upon his lips he took the oath to sustain the Uovern ment that he meant to overthrow. Sir, there was method in this madness. ?e . co-operation th other men from his section, and in the Cabinet of Mr. Buchanan, made careful prepara tions for the event that was to follow. Your fleets were scattered wherever the winds blew and water was found to float them, where theV could not be used to put down a rebellion. Your armies were scattered all "over this broad land, where thev could not be Vnnr TrMnrv lour reasury used in an emergency. was depleted until your bonds, bearing b per cent, interestprincipal and iny terest payable in coin, were sold for eighty - eight cents on tne dollar to pay ... . current expenses and no buyers. Pre parations were .caretully made, lour arm 3 were ; sold under an apparently innocent clause in aa army bill pro viding that the Secretary of War might in his discretion, sell such arms as he deemed best for the interest of the Government to sell.' Sir, eighteen years ago last month I sat in this hall and listened to Jefferson Davis deliver ing his farewell address informing us what our constitutional duties to this Government were and then he left and entered into a rebellion to over throw the Government that he had sworn to support. I remained here, feir, during the whole of that terrible rebellion. VI saw our bravesoldiers by thousands 1 miccht almost say millions as they passed through here to the theatre of war. I saw their , shattered ranks returning. I saw steamboat after steamboat and railroad train after railroad . train brinsinc: back the wounded. I was with my friend from Rhode Island (Mr. Burnside) wheu he commanded the army of the Potomac, and saw piles of zleits and arms that made humanity shudder. 1 saw the widows and orphans made by this war and heard them wail and mourn over the death of their dearest and best. Mr. President, I little thought at that time that I should live to hear in the Senate of the United States cu '.ogiea upon Jefferson Davis a living, rebel on the floor of ti'e Senate of the United States. Sir, I am auiazedto hear it ; and I can tell the gentlemen on the other side that they little know the spirit of the north when they come here at this day, with bravado on their lips, uttering eulogies upon him whom every man, woman, and child in the north believe to have been a double dyed traitor. . The effect of thi3 sudden outburst of fervid eloquence was electric. The sensation was intense, and when the Democrats attempted a reply it became apparent that the stalwart Michigand er had knocked them out of wind and time, for they soon subsided, j and the debate endedl This effort has the olden time ring, and such rehearsals o.f history in the face of southern bravado is an indication of returning health to the Republican party. ;. The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle pub- Iihes, without comment, a letter from Mrs. W. H. iFelton, wife of Judge Pel-. ton, independent candidate for Congress in the Seventh Georgia District. The Chronicle had copied a charge made by the. Democratic paper at Macon to the effect that last summer Mrs. Felton wrote a letter to Senator Ferry (Repub lican), of Michigan, imploring the Re publicans to aid her husband in the ' . i -r ' n-ii-J . i I vuuiessiuuai. ugui. xura. reikOn au- mits that she wrote to Senator Ferry explaining the situation. Then, de-! claring that the attack on her comes from Senator Gordon, she proceeds to read that gentleman and the regular Democracy of Georgia a lecture. She expresses the opinion that chivalry is at a discount witn tne organized De mocracy of Georgia, that no man's home is safe frem their attack if he dares to resist tlie public plunderers,, and that the clique of Democrats now in power In Georgia will spare no sex or condition to keep themselves in of fice. As to Senator Gordon, Mrs. Feh ton says : " When a United States Sen-! ator can run a convict camp, which "is a disgrace to civilization," 4for momcyt when be can manipulate a Southern In-j surance Company and & Southern Uni versity Publishing Company, not to speak of other circumlocution enter prises, where the monet of the, sub scribers disappeared forever when he could borrow the money of a Southern' Bishop-and the Bishop sold the coU laterals for only one dollar, in the hnn dred, you peed not be surprised that he should attack the wife of a political opponent." All iu all, the letter gives a suggestive picture of the Georgia Democracy. ' , When Ben Butler begins to talk abottt southern bravery as shown id the late war, aq.4 throws out all sorts of pleasantries on that subject, and indulges in the expression ot the be lief that in time the Government will provide 'maimed Confederates with wooden legs, the .first finger of one' left I hand, involuntarily places itself vertically upon the nose, and one's mind runs upon a calculation of how many Votes a wooden leg 13 worth. i Exchange. ' The Organization of the House i ..j -. sumea to oe iiepuDiican, : comes out stronsly aeainst any combination be- tween the Greenbackers and Republi cans ; to secure the organization of the next House. It intimates very broadly that it would prefer Democratic su premacy to such a combination. -- Let us examine the consistency and wisdom of this position for a few ma ment3. - I;..: v y- : '' -..,';.: In the first jlace it is universally conceded by such papers as that alluded to that the fight in 1880 will be between the Republican and Democratic parties. They are pretty evenly matched, and no single advantage can' be safely thrown away. The control of the House of Representatives, and, in con sequence, the control of legislation, which the Democrats will succeed in obtaining unless this combination shall be made, will be such an enormous lever in the campaign as to make its transfer to the Democracy a blunder j j i the part of Republicans too gigantic ti be patiently tolerated. Not only that, but the yielding up of this advan tage without an effort to secure it, means the entire surrender of the leg- islative power to those whom the, coun try regards with suspicion and disgust, and whose rule cau be little less than disastrous. v Thesocalled Republican newspaper, to which we have alluded, has repeat- Ully urged two propositions: 1. That 'r, Ko,. nr, ada . 9 That nothing can be so unfortunate as tlie unrestricted succession to power of the Democracy. v. ;. If the first proposition is true, what danger is there in combining with the few Greenback Representatives who may hold the- balance of power, and who alone are able to teep the Demo cratic party in subjection ? If the sec ond be true, what folly and wickedness is that which declines to embrace so simple a remedy for so grave a disease !. Is that paper honest in the expression of its belief when it follows such ex pression with advice which tends to belie its words and demonstrate its in sincerity? I It is an ordinary practice for minor ity organizations to join teams for the advancement of their respective inter ests and for thejoverthrow of a common enemy. It is not only, an ordinary practice, but an eminently sensible one. The coalition does not mean the sur render of cherished views or principles on either side, but siijnply the occupa tion of a strategic point which will him bfh important ! advantage. The xtepuoacans are in a miuoruy ; iney would eagerly form such a combination with independents ;. why should they refuse to. do tho same thing with the so called Greenbackers. We cannot believe it possible that there are any Republican members of the House who are prepared to go into the Democratic camp upon this ques tion. If there are, then their profes sions are vain and insincerje, and their oft expressed fears of Drpocratic su premacy hypocritical cant. They will exhibit ; to the world the meaninglee s character of their charges; against the Democratic party, and show that they are ready to extend aid and comfortlto that! dangerous organization, and im- peril the success of Republicanism, simply to spite a dozen and a half of very worthy members who happened to differ with them on one question of poiiiicai economy, it is to be hoped that: no such persops have found seats in the next Congress, and there is ground for the .belief that if the Green backers are judicious and sensible they can easily present a ticket that will be satisfactory both to themselves and to the Republicans of the House, and that the ! organization of that body can be taken f so m the hungry hurdle that now controls it.--Inter Ocean. There are two reports from the Pot ter committees The majority agree to find that Florida and Louisiana were carried for Tilden, and that he was de prived of thera by outrageous and bareiaced fraud. Tney further report that the guileless old man who was robbed of the Presidency was " not cognizant of the efforts made to purs chase yotes from state Canvassers and Electors, and that the wicked cabal engaged in that business received neither aid, countenance, nor encour agement from their alleged principal: It also: "arraigns" Secretary Sherman for, personal complicity in falsifying the vote of Louisiana, and other prpi mineut Republicans are abused in, good set terms. 'The minority report is more judicial in tone and" temper, and more truthful in statement. Gen. Butler; while agreeing generally with with the minority, reports on his own account. General Butler's conclusions on the electoral count business are of course different from those of everybody else President Ilayes, he believeg, was counted in, Mr. Tilden was defrauded, and the appointment of the Supreme Court Judges oh the commission has been prejudicial General Butler has his own little party to take care of in his campaign document.
