rial of the American Geographical and Sta
tistical Society, praying for the publication

ment of diseases incident to crowded popu

tive to amputations of large joints, &c.
On motion of Mr. Morrill, it was resolved
that the Judiciary Committee be instructed
to inquire into the expediency of restraining
by law the act of the 2d of March, 1863, so
that the same shall not confer the right of
removal from a court of any State on indict
ments for sales of spirituous liquors under
•the laws of said States to the Supreme Court
of the United States before trial of the same
in said courts.

gan, asking for a modification of the tax on
tobacco.

Mr. Sumner called up the following reso
lution, 'presented by him yesterday:
Resolved, That the Secretary of the Trea
sury and the Postmaster General be in
structed to report to the Senate, so
far as the records of their res
pective departments will allow, whether at
any time since the report of December last
any persons have been permitted to enter
upon the duties of office and receive the
emoluments thereof without taking :the
oath prescribed by act of Congress, or if
they have taken it, adding thereto expla
nations; or if they have altered the oath,
then the alterations they have made; and if
-such things have been done, then to request
the names of such persons, the oaths they
have taken, and the reasons for allowing
the same.
Mr. Hendricks inquired of Mr. Sumner
if there was reason for calling for such in
formation.
Mr. Sumner said that on last Saturday he
called on the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, and was told by him that the
oath had, in many cases, been modified to
suit persons in the South.
Mr. Hendricks did not see the necessity
for passing such a resolution. He believed
the Secretary of the Treasury to have done
his duty, and to be an able and efficient
officer.
Mr. Sumner said there was a law requir
ing a certain oath from all officers in the
employ of the government, and no Cabinet
officer had a right to dispense with it.

Mr. Randall (Pa.) objected.
The House next proceeded to the con
sideration of the contested election case
from the Eighth Congressional district of
New York, Dodge against Brooks.
Mr. Dawes (Mass.) Chairman of the Com
mittee on Elections, addressed the House
in support of the report of the committee,
the conclusion of which is that Mr. Brooks
is not, and that Mr. Dodge is, eutitled to
represent the district. He spoke for nearly
two hours, going over much of the matter
covered in ite testimony.
By reference to the report it appears that
the official canvass showed the following re
suit: For Brooks, 8,583; for Dodge, 8,435; for
Thomas J. Barr, 4,544; giving Brooks a plu
rality of 148 votes. The report represents
the allegations of the contestant as being
vague and uncertain, and the answer of the
sitting member asequally . vague and uncer
taba, and abounding in irrelevant matter.
The contestant, however. had confined his
proofs to allegations affecting only fonrpre
ducts, the Thirteenth -and Fifteenth Dis
tricts of the Eighteenth Ward,and the Third
and Seventh Districts of the Twenty-first
Ward. The allegations of the contestant in
reference to the Fifteenth District of the
Eighteenth Ward, commonly known as
Mackerelville, were that the- Fifteenth Dis
trict was not legally created and estab
lished; that it was not known to bona fide
residents of the district that the inspectors
of election themselvestascertained the same
only by persistent inquiry on the morning
of election day; that the register was frau
dulently and irregularly filled with the
names of partisans of Brooks, most of whom
do not reside in the District; that the ma
jority of the names therein were copied
from lists handed in by a barkeeper on the
premises, an ardent Democrat; that the
clerk who acted for the Board of Registry
was neither sworn nor appointed; that the
District, only a portion of the original
Twelfth District, from which it was sepa
rated, gave more votes than the whole
Twelfth District at the election last year;
that the population of the District had not,
during the twelve months/ increased mate
rially; that of the votes then cast for Brooks,
one-third and upwards Were given by par
lies not qualified to vote. The committee
were of the opinion that there was no regis
try at this District: that neither of the per
sons appointed as registers was competent
to hold the office; that the man acting as
clerk acted without authority; that the
mode of making up the registry itself was a
fraud upon the registry law,and in no man
lier a compliance with its provisions; that
the use of such registry at the polls was' a
rand; that the. inspectors of election contri
buted directly to the polling of fraudulent
votes, and that the larger and unaccounted
for increase of votes at this poll is di
rectly attributed to these departures from
and -violations of the plain provisions of
law. The committee therefore hold that the
entire vote of that district-221 for Brooks
and 57 for Dodge—should be set aside.
Mr. Dawes' argument was confined almost
exclusively to the discussion of the ques
tion of the Mackerelville district, and sup
poiting the position taken by the commit
lee. It will be seen that it gave a majority
i)f 16 votes to Brooks, exceeding his official
majority by sixteen votes, and that the ex
clusion of the vote of that district would of
itself give the vote to Mr. Dodge. In regard
'o the Seventh District of the Twenty-first
Ward, the committee believed that at least
116 illegal votes were cast, but there was no
means of discovering for whom such frau
dulent votes were cast. The committee,
therefore, saw no alternative but to reject
the return of that district altogether. The
official canvass in that district - showed for
Brooks, 160; for Dodge, 71; for Barr, 158;
giving Stooks a plurality of 89 votes over
Dodge. In regard to the Thirteenth Dis
trict of the Eighteenth Ward, in which the
contestant charged that the voting was of a
grcssly fraudulent character, and that one
et the inspectors was bribed and exchanged
;daces with another partisan of Brooks,
who, unsworn, acted as inspector; that one
f the inspectors, refused to receive votes
fir Dodge, and that the greatest frauds were
perpetrated in canvassing the votes, did,
the committee held that the allegations were
hot sustained. The committee decided
also, not to disturb the keturns of the 'Third
DifArict of the Twenty-first Ward. The
result of the case as) summed up by the
committee is as follows—The official return
for Mr. Brooks was 8,583. Deduct illegal
return from Fifteenth District, Eighth
Ward, 221; deduct illegal return from
Seventh District, Twenty-first Ward, 160,
making 381. The whole number of legal
otes cast for Mr. Brooks was 8,202;- the
nicht" return for Mr. Dodge was 8,435.
Deduct illegal return Fifteenth District,
Eighteenth Ward, 57; deduct illegal return
irom Seventh District, Twenty-first Ward,
71; making 128-8,307. Majority for Mr.
Dodge. 105.
Mr. Marshall (I11.),who with Mr. Radford
:lad made a minority report, next addressed
the House in support of Mr.Brooks's right to
retain his seat. The minority reports sets
forth that the irregularities charged, if they
existed, are not shown to have been pro
duced by the procurement or connivance of
Mr. Brooks, or to have inured in any way
to his benefit. In all the districts assailed
by the contestant a clear majority of the
officers of the election; including registers
and inspectors, were his own party friends,
while none of them are shown to have been
the personal or partisan friends of Mr.
Brooks. In all the vast array of evidence
there is no proof whatever that illegal votes
were given or returned for the sitting mem
ber. Vast sums of money were used in the
most shameless and scandalous manner to
control the election, by direct and indirect
bribery, but this was done by the con
testant or his friends, and not by Mr.
Brooks.
There is no attempt by proof to show any
wrong or fraud on the part of the sitting
member. There is no pretence that Mr.
Dodge could, under any possible circum
stances, obtain a majority of the votes of the
District he claims to represent. It is, indeed,
admitted that he would, upon a fair vote,
tall short of a majority by several thousand
votes. If there were irregularities, they
were not produced by the connivance or
procurement of Mr. Brooks. If there were
frauds and bribery,they werechargeable ex
clusively to Mr. Dodge and his agents, In
reference to the defects iu the registry laws,
of Mackerelville, the minority stated that
the registers were Republican, and were
appointed by a Republican party organiza
tion. Decency and honor forbade the asser
don that Republican registers were pur
posely appointed by the Republican party
residing out of the Fifteenth District with
the deliberate object of disfranchising the
district. Contrasted with the Gubernatorial
vote of 1865, the Congressional vote of
Mackerelville in 1864 showed an increase of
only eighteen votes, while the Fifth avenue
district, which . gave Dodge 511 votes and
Brooks only 192, showed an increase of 202.
This tended to show that if there were
frauds perpetrated there were committed in
Mr. Dodges district, not in Mr. Brooks's.
The minority report refers to the fact of the
large outlay of money made by Dodge and
his friends to influence the election, amount
ing to $11,120, according- to facts ascer
tained, and $15,508, according to the state
ment of Brooks, and to the fact that a bar
gain was made by Dodge's friends with
Barr the Tammany Hall candidate, by
w 1 Barr was to get, and did get, $2,014)
fc,r fling against Brooks. The result ar
rived at by the minority is that, deducting
seven votes cast in three districts thrown out,
there was a majority for Brooks of 141.
Without finishing his remarks, Mr. Mar
shall yielded to a motion to adjourn.
Mr. Garfield (Ohio), from the select Com
mittee on Education, reported back, with a
substitute, a bill to establish a National
Bureau of Education. Ordered to be
printed and recommitted. It provides for
the establishment of such Bureau, with one
commissioner and five clerks, the commis
sioner to publish an mann alreport of the con
dition of e ducation in the United States,show
ing the school systems of the different States,
dm. He is also required in his first annual re
port to give a history of all the grants of
land made by the general government for
educational purposes, and the disposition
made thereof , the design of the bill being
not to attempt any control of the school
system of States, but rather to assist and
foster them.
Mr. O'Neill (Pa.) presented resolutions of
the Philadelphia Board of Trade, approving
of the acceptance by the government
of the 'United States of the invitation of the
Emperor of the French to participate in the
Paris Exhibition of 1867 and hoping for a
liberal appropriation, so that a proper dis
play may be made in it of the products of
our country. Referred to the Committee on
Foreign Affairs.
