WEDNESDAY MORNING:
IXTEVSIOH OF COLT’S BEVOLVEB. PATENT.
THE CHAHGKS OP BRIBERY.
Mike Walah and Gen. OiuUtu Adolphne
Scroggl,
The House of Representatives, on Saturday,*
Trent into commUjeo of tbe whole on the Private
Calendar. bill on the list being that
extending the Colt patent for an improvement in
firearms, for seven years, Mr. Peck moved that
it be passed over informally.
Mr. Pratt, by unanimous consent, made an et*
planatioo. This matter had been magnified into
each importance as to oall for a eeleot commit*
tee, which is now acting. It was one in which
he had a personal interest. [Laughter.] By
this he meant the repatatipn of an intimate
personal acquaintance is involved. [Kenewed
laughter.] Colonel Colt has a right, as an
American, to apply to Congress for what he
believes to be just. He has been charged,
indirectly if not directly, with .doing what is
unbecoming an honorable man, suoh as using
improper means and outside influence, and
attempting to bribe members of this Home.
Col. Colt is as honorable a man as any on this
floor. There is no trath in the charges preferred.
If any gentleman here has been bribed let him
rise in his place. [Laughter.] Either in the
way of pistols, money, or anytning else.
Mr. Pratt would say, with all respect for the
select committee, that he looked on this whole
movement as a reflection on the character of the
House. He did not know a gentleman here who
could thus be bribed.
A Voice—lf so let him show himself.
Pratt resuming-r-As to MrT Dickerson
[Col. Colt’s agent,] he did not believe he would
be guilty of eonduet unbecoming an honorable
man.. All Col. Colt asks is, that Congress
will five its opinion one way or the other on
this biU. J -
A question of order here sprung np, as to
whether the bill could be set aside, but the Com
mittee refused—Ayes, 29; boss not counted.
Mr. Campbell said the charges fixed the re
sponsibility in bo particular quarter He had
seen nothing to throw corruption on any person.
He was cotprepared to believe—nor evensuspect
~tbat any member of the House was so base and
lost to honor, as jo involve his character in any
suoh way. He had never seen or expected to
see CoL Colt, Jbnt was In favor of the bill, be
cause he believed it to be the best for the coun
ter to renew Colt's Patent. He had one of
Colt’s revolvers made a present to him in 1843
in New Orleans, by a dear friend now deceased.
He found it a good instrument, answering his
purpose very well. When at home, bo ammed
himself shooting rats. He hoped he might
never find occasion for a more serious purpose.
Mr. Letcher, in reply to Mr. Pratt, observed
that he did not say CoL Colt had setbd properly,
because it was a notorious fsot that, at the time
he appeared before the Select Committee, he was
drunk, and his mind obfuscated. If gentlemen
would take the trouble-to examine the testimo
ny they would find that he bad no definite ideas,
of the sum of money bis pgent had distributed.
Mr. Chamberlain—Do these questions su’d
answers constitute part of the writ ten report ?
Mr. Letcher—No sir. It would have been u
bard matter to daguerteotype the testimony of
a drunken man. He read from the testimony in
order to.sbow that Mr. Dickerson bad unfimited
power to draw on Colt, and that $15,000 on the
books of Colt’s clerk, [Mr. Josslyn,] were un
accounted for;.and further, that money 'was
spent to help the bill along through Congress, as
wofc suspected, though Mr. Dickerson refused to
answer as to the use of the money, saying the
Committee had no right to look into bis private
matters.
Mr. dots tbe gentlemao plaoe toy
confidence Id tbe testimony of Gt!L Colt, if he
wa* drank ?
Sir, Letcher—Tbe Committee Was convened
for his convenience, end he oogbt not to here
.como before them in that condition. I hare no
confidence ia |£a statement.
Mr. Waiah-rfMr. Letcher yielding the floor.)
During the late election in New York, there were
three candidate* for Governor and three for
Lieutenant Governor. 1 see two of them pres
ent. One gentleman, who was on the rump
ticket, is inside of the Hall, andthe other in the
gallery. I that a Committee be sent
to General Augustus Adolphus Sofpggs, invito*
him to a soat on the floor. [Laughter.]
Mr. Letcher— Is it expectetfihat I shall defer*
my remarks till the Committee go out f [Laugh
ter.]
The Chairman to Mr. Walsh—We’re in Com
mittee now.
Mr. Walsh—Send the Bergeaat-at-Arms.
Mr. Letoher concluded by saying that the bill
should not be acted on pending the investigation
of the Select Committee.
Mr. Pratt remarked that he certainly under
stood Mr. Letcher to say, in private conversa
tion. that there dishonorable in Col.
Colt’s conduct. Colt was sick, and had just
come out of his chamber when he appeared be
fore the Committee. His friends thea feared for
bis life. He was surprised that Mr. Letcher
had acoused him of being drunk.
Mr., Letoher—The gentleman says Colt was
not drunk. I appeal to my eolleagues on the
Seleot Committee.
Mr. Ruffin-r-I so considered him.
Mr. Zollicoffer—There was a like impression
on my i^ind; bat while * believed Colt intoxi
cated, I thought he wks in the haadi of men
who txnght be sharper*, and would ruin him;
but 1 believed he was an honorable man.
Mr. Wheeler—Col. Colt was to have been ex
amined in the morning, but the Committee being
occupied, hie examination wae postponed till
evening.
He appeared before the Committee directly
after dinner, and seemed to be slightly excited
Mr. Massachusetts—l feel bound to
say what I am about to eay, and yetoannot cor
roborate to thr full-what the gentlemen from
Virginia (Mr. Letcher,) haseaid. I would not
examine a drunken man. I ehonld be loth to
examine a man In tbe technical sense, in
toxicated, and yet the witness was not in a full
proper state of mimi. [Laughter.] It is right
to say that after thfWxamination was completed,
I felt constrained to believe he was a man of
honor. He said nothing to shake my confidence
in his integrity. I thought he was in unfortu
nate hands, and might well exclaim, « Save me
from my friends.” The examination wae con
ducted in the afternoon.
Mr. Thurston—l wss present during the ex
.mutation of Col. Colt Ho seemed to bo some,
what exoited, whether with diaease or drink I
don't know. r * ’
Mr. Letoher—l ehonld not hare made anv
reference to this, bnt for the allusion of the
gentleman from Connecticut, (Mr. Pratt)
Mr. Bdgcrton dahbted not that members of
die Houso sometimes get a little oonfosed
after the dinner hour, [laughter,] and there,
fore ought not to bo so particular. The action
of the Select Committee amounted to nothing
It will link into forgetfulness, as bare all
other iurestigationo. The Committee wait no.
torioualy a failure. In 1831, (Jolt inwnted
an operating arm, but owing to difficulties in
constructing sooh a weapon ns coold be need
with safety did not receive n patent till 1830.
Colt and his friends were incorporated by the
New Jersey Legislature In that yeahas the Pat
eat Arma.Manufacturing Company, with an
thorised capital of $300,000, $230 000 w.. J,v'
