his life if hinin Mali prove that Northern men are
not cowards, and if the great

WO bei pinteeted upon the floor of the House. It
ought •to be reedlootad by the country that for
six weeks, prior to the election of Speaker,
the Southern men controlled the discussions of
the Mortar sliest entirely, and that their bearing
to the Northern members was in the highest
degree Offends., dictatorial, and insolent. The
latter eat Silent drainede long series of attacks
made upon them: They were denounced as animal.
Mal participants, it not in deed, in sympathy with
Jobs Brown;. they were taunted as unwilling or no
able to fight, and the threat was openly made, that
if Mr. Sherman was sleeted Speaker, (although it
Js well known that he is 'one of the most conserva
tive men in the Boum) the ilknithent members
would 'prevent his taking the chair. The effect of
thli lihigeage and this motion upon such men as
Lovejoy was natural. What he said was Seine
and violent, but it was not more so than that which
had-been uttered by numbers of- Southern - repre
sentatives, only a few. weeks previous ; and when
they.itempted to prevent him from speaking, Mr.

TEE COVODE INVESTIGATING • COMMITTEE—TE®TI•
/CONY OF DISTRICT ATTORNEY VANDYKE, OT
LADELPRIA.
The Coved° Investigating Committee met this'
morning , AtIO °Wool ; preeent, Mears. COVODZ of
Pennsylvania, Onus of 'New ' York, Winnow of
North Carolina, and Tam of Maseaohusetts ; ab
sent, Mr: Rontssou, of Illinois.
- JAYE!! 0. VANDYII3I; Philadelphia, appeared
before the committee and was examined. He
testified that he was still United States Dietriot
Attorney for the Hasten district of Pennsylvania,
not having had offiolal notification of his removal,
although he understood that the name of his sue.
oessor had been notninsted tothe Senate. He be-
Hived the canoe of his removal was hie refusal to
combine with other Federal office-holders in Phi
:isdelpMa in their management of inter-party poli
ties, although the. President put it upon other
grounds—to wit, that the personal relations between
the Colleetor and the District Attorney must be pre
served in order that the pnblie duties should be pro
perliconduoted2 Mr. VANDTX.II stated that all the
public &Alia, bet Ween the different officials and
himself, had necessarily to be conducted by ones
pondenee, since, 'unless it was so conducted, the
successors In office could not know the condition of
any cause pending ; and that ,his political differ
ences with the collector never interfered, either on
his part or on the part , of the colleotor, with the
proper discharge of official duties.
Mr. 00V0D111 inquired whether the witness knew
af any Oombinations among the Federal office-hold-
In in' the Mite of Pinpsylvania; to control party
aolities, and whether any removals had , taken
niece because the. eollector's trabordinites would
not obey the dictation of the collector?
. Mr. Vernon roped that he bad always con
sidered that there was a thorough combination
among Mi. BIICIIIANAN'i aloe-holders in Philadel
phia, with' few 'exceptions, for the purpose of con
doling inside party polities in that city, And that
nasty 'pentane had been removed bonus they
would not obey tha dictation of the collector.
Mr..oovonle ; Naked whether these ,00mbinations
extended into, the, State 1,, ,
Mr. VAXIMCII repliatthat the general opinion
among a larger portion - of the party was that they
did, but thatte bad always opposed sash oontblna•
Lions from 1839 op to the'presemt time, and would
oontimm to do so.
Mr. (Joyous then desired to know whether Mr.
WINDY/CI had had any oonnspondenee or commu
nication with the President in relation to these
combinations?
Mr. Vain:ones declined answering the question, 1
on the ground that all nob correspondence or com
munication between the President and himself for
three pearl pant; and prior to March 14th, 1880,
having been of a confidential character, as' an
honorable man he could net 'reveal it, and sug
gested whether the gentlemen on the other side
would think proper for the committee to inquire
into such matters, or for him to answer.
The question wit not pressed. Mr. Corons, Do
you know whether the President ever was informed
of these combinations, and whether he approved or
disapproved of them?
Mr. VANDYKE replied that he had frequently
complained to the President of those combinations.
and he was of opinion that other oltisens of Philo'
- dolphia had done the same thing.
In answer to another question, he stated that
Gsoaas WANSUNETON RAKER was incorrect In his
testimony before the committee when he said that
he was appointed to office la the Philadelphia eas
tern house for the purpose of assisting in the public
duties of his (Mr. Veenreale) office. That Mr.
BAKER, in the particular office he held, never had
any connection with the witness's office ; the
only -matter In which he (Mr. Deere) ever
was employed being the single ease in
which he was detailed by the endow hones to
procure testimony in.a single ease in which he per
formed very little duty, not being engaged for
over two weeks at the furthest. Mr. BAKER had
been appointed to the office he holds several
months previous to his being detailed to perform
the duties to which witness referred ; and that he
paid very little attention' to them, was shown in
the fact that he had sworn thit the ease was one
of the seizure and forfeiture of Mr: Boren's
hermit* when the truth, so far as Mr. Verprru's
knowledge went, was that Mr. Boras never im
ported any brandy Into Philadelphia which was
"eked or forfeited ; that the suit was RE action on
the common law side of the court to recover duties
paid under Opted.
In answer to a qiiestion whether Mr. Berra bad
ever'performedany other service 'of the kind for
which hewn detailed by the collector, the witness
said that when he . asked him to procure testimony
to another ewes Mr. Berra informed him that he
was those/tit e ngaged In ',steamship line, then or
lonising, to littered to It. That the assertion, on
the .part of Mr.BAKilk that be was appointed to
this !See on account Of the personal relations be"-
tenon the oelleetor and the witness, was untrue, as
he (Mr. 'Peewee's), *mid stash - prefer pers onal
islatiosi with the et:Meister' thin 'with his brother,
Gao. W. Berns. He thought the eelleotor the
better nun of 'the two. Mr. Berm bad appeared
in other tunes, in which the Government was iota

Philadelphia, on the hearing of persons charged
with slime ; but in those oases he did not, in behalf
of the Govermapt.
committee with his professional opinion as to
whether it was a violation of any United States
statute for a United States collector to appoint per
sons, and pay them salaries, without requiring The
performance of any olgialal duties from them?
. Mr. WrusLow, of North Camila*, objected to
the witness furnishing any suoh opinion, and the
comMittee held the question over for advisement.
Mr. VALIII4IOI Is to appear before the committee
again to-morrow morning.

. It is due to myself to say that, although he may
have been near me, I did not recognise the pre
sence of the, honorable member front Wiceonein,
nor did I bear ono word from his lips. Now, sir,
MR I peculiar or singular in failing to observe his
presence? for, by referenee to loading papers in
New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, all of
which give separate and distinct account, of the
proceedings of that day, I find that no allusion is
made to hie presence, and not one word to he re
ported to have uttered. 'However. I find thin lan
guage reported in the Globs, and I presume I must
°encode that ho did appear, and that he did speak
On that occasion. Bat, on recurring to the mann
armlet of "the reporters, I find that ho has interpo
lated the record .of our proceedings, in a matter
touching personal relations, affecting that record in
a moat material regard :
"We listened to them enietly, and heard them
through. And now, air, this side shall be heard. " ,
There stopped the manuscript of the reporter.
The member from Wisconsin then added, in his
own handwriting, " let the consequenees be what
they may."
Again, lam reported as having said: Yon
shall not come hero gesticulating in a menacing
and ruffianly manner." Mr. Potter was reported
to have made no response. The reporter heard
no rations., and accordingly reported none.
The member from Wisconsin here interpolated
in his own handwriting, "you are doing the name
thing."
Again, following a remark made by Mr. John
Cochrane, the member from Wisconsin In made by
the reporter to say :
I do not believe that side of the Moose can say:where
a member shall epeak."
There the Official report terminated ; bat the
member from Wisconsin has added: "and they
shall not say it."
With this statement of facts, repeating that the
newspapers of the country have not reported his
pregame in the House at all on that occasion, and
that the Made' report pf tour prootedings exhibits
the fact that he did not say that which he repre
sents himself to have said, I resume my seat,
Mr. POTTEn. lam very much earprieed that
the member from Virginia should, say that he did
not nee me upon the occasion alluded to ; but, air,
I have no right to say, and I shalt not any, that ha
did see me; because I, of mime, cannot say that
he saw me; but 1 stood within a few feet of the
gentlezein; and when he made the remarks which
he has just road In relation to Mr. Lovejoy', com
ing down into tho aroma gesticulating and ahaking
his tests, 1 said : " You are doing the same thing."
I said it, as I eupposed, distinctly and I wail ear
prised when, on looking at t he notes of the
reporter, I found that it -was net ea reported.
did what I supposed every member had a right
to do under the oircurestances. When I was eon
mime, when I knew that I made the remark. and
when other members on thin *ride of the House
heard me make it, I put the remark in its proper
plate. I also claimed the right, and exercised the
right, in looking over the notes of the reporter, to
correct them. I believe the Member from Vir
ginia did the same thing. At any rate, his re
' markt had been oorreeted, judging from the ap
pearance of the manuscript. I did no more than
the member from Virginia did I corrected my
remarks. is perfectly natural to suppose that,
under the oireumeteneet, in the confusion which
took place when so many wore speaking at the
same time, the reporters did not heat distinotly ;
but thin) are gentlemen op this side of the House
who did hear me make the remarks as they appear
in the Globe. This is all I have to say upon the
subject.
llr. PRYOR One word more. As to my seeing
the gentleman from Wisconsin, it is proper for me
to say, that although I did not see or recognise him,
he MO have been there - vita:tut my geeing him.
As to the other point the gentleman makes, that I
also altered the report of my remarks, I have thie
to say: that I dM in two instameeti,.l think; which
I have here, s lbetttute one word fier another, not
in any respect changing the sense or meaning;
certainly not making the language stronger, or
putting me in any more heroin attitude,
,I understand the gentleman, then, to remark
that be did say, on that oCoasion, that I had, in a
ruffianly and violent manner, approached and ges
ticulated towards the gentleman from Illinois. I
understand him to say that. Now, sir, I wish to
know if I am to understand further that be intends
by that any menace, or offence to myself
Individu
ally? [Laughter from Republicans.]
lIMr. POTTER. What I meant to say wan this:
at when the member from Virginia had left his
own seat and came down into the area, end was
shaking his lists at Mr. Lovejoy, and was charg
ing, no that it might go to the country, the slime
offence, 'if it be an offence, upon the gentleman
from Illinois, I said wirer wag eery petural that I
abould ray under the eiroumstaneee, that "You
are doing the same thing." I deprecated the
shaking of flats on one side as much as upon the
other ; but I meant what I then said, and I stand
by what I said.
And, sir, I said before that I consider that a
member has the right, not only to correct his re
marks as taken by the reporters, but If a remark
has, lathe excitement and confusion of the pen
sion, been left out, he has a perfect right to pat it
in. did put in this remark, because I wanted
m
the report to be sorted t. Viet wits the only motive
I had.
And now, Mr. Speaker, I will ask the member
from Virginia whether he did not, of his own motion,
erase that remark after it had been put in the re
port? I ask him what right he had, even after I
had put in a remark, to erase It'lrithout oonsulting
me? When I looked over the notes again, I saw
what the gentleman [from Virginia had done; and
I now say that he had no right whatever to niter
single word Qr a eomma in those remarks. I
would kayo out my right hand off before f would
have done it.
But, sir, that remark of mine, put in its proper
edam as I uttered it, was entirely wiped out by
the member from Virginia, (Mr. Pryor.) Re
erased it in such a way that neither the reporters,
the printers, nor anybody else, could have told
what were the words which had been written. It
was taking athberty, Mr. Speaker, which he bad
no right to 'take. It is the right of no permit, in
looking over the notes of the ropprtor, to erase any
remark there written, whether by the reporter,
himself, or anybody else. If the manuscript has
been submitted to a member, and ho has corrected
his remarks, as he has the right," do, the gentle
man from Virginia has no business and no right
whatever to amend, or alter, or strike out the re.
marks purporting to have been made by another
meteber. It is a liberty which I did not take,
which I had ne right to take, and which no gen-
tleman has the right to take.
Mr. Pam,. One word, and then I nen done
with this matter. The gentlemen from Wisconsin
wants to know by what authority—for he itu
ptlaphos the sot—l erased matter which he had in
terpolated there I erased no word which the re
porter bad written upon his manuscript, but I felt
myself authorised to erase an unwarrantable and
impertinent interjection in the gentleman's our.
handwriting. lie says before he would have dem
tint thing—erased that which somebody else had
put upon the manuscript—he would have his arm
cut off, and yet be could interject into the mane
swept that which the reporter did not write down
and report him to have said [Laughter from tilt
Republican bombes.]
The gentleman says that be stands by his len
gums lam very glad to hear it. I understand
him, then, to give me theliberty of construing his re
mark as l ploaso. I will put what construction I
please upon it, anti whether or not he stands by it
the sequel will demonstrate. (Derisive laughter
from the Republican benches ]

Dr; Noutider's Second Lecture at Con.
cert Hall Met Evening. '
Retwithitandieg the lateness of the semen for
popular lectures, • large audience was assembled
at iloneert Hall, last evening, to listen to a lecture on
The Late Mutiny In India," by the Rev. Henry Mar
tin Shudder, D. D. He will shortly return to resume
his labors es a Millenary in the East. During his so
journ in this country, he has delivered a number of leo
tards neon various topic', hearing upon the groat sob
feet to which his life, in common with several other
members of his family, his been for years past faith
fully devoted. He is one of the most eloquent living
orators, and iris effort lest evening, we may say, was up
to the measure of his reputation in this lumpier.
Mr. Getty, le introducing him, said that he had much
pleasure in introducing Dr. geuditer to the audience,
and that this would be his last ammitrinioe befo.e a Phi
ladelphia audience, certainly for many yearn to come
perhaps forever.
The lecturer said, in opening. thee .he Wag enteriMe
upon a subjeit respecting which there were opinions
widely different, He believed his own views to be'right;
nevertheless, he claimed no infallibility in the matter,
and wail quite vilifies that others should think differentia
if so disposed. lie would ask their attention first to ,he
origin of the British Empire in the East. The colossil
dominions of the Beetled's Company were then sketeh
ed from their beginning; in which it w•s leg t ti at
wherever the Anglo-Saxon placed his foot it was diffi
cult to remove him. It was so with Our forefathers in
this country. Agairat this was placed the sangetne ima
gination end the treachery of the Oriental. Excite hui
fury, said the speaker, and he looked upon the work of
whipping the universe as a trifling tack I From this pe
culiarity, it was not hard to see that the Englishman
most assert his mipremeet unmistakably, or By away
from them. Be could not. for hie part, understood how,
under the eircenrisMneee, the Aaglo•Baxon *mild have
done' anything than assume the sway of empire after
once attemptineto gain a foothold.
The barbarities of Indian rulers ware graphioally de
plated; among whom, one was referred to whoa* din
ner amusement it had been to push an Englishman into
a room In his palace, occupied by several hungry tiger!
For various reasona. he said. it (meld riot be said Vial
trash that India had suffered from having been sub
jected to a Western yoke, se he was sorry to know was
frequently charged in this country...-Tte government of
their country was shown to have bean greatly 'ameliora
ted for the good of the natitwe, by tat Imposition of this
go-called yoke; and Wadi of pirates: end difeds of vil
lainy unnumbered, had been pot down by the English
OoPernment. In oonsequenee, India had a settled Go
vernment now, just, equal, and equitable, insuring to
every"individtial his personal rights. And was there no
good to be seen in this? Was it no good that the
funeral fives had been' put out ; where women stood
clasping their dead husbands while consuming on the
funeral pile t or that a thousand superstitions Naha
titles of a like nature had been suppressed t•
Speaking of the fatalities of education there, the
'pecker said he was a physician. He did riot study
medicine' in America; he went out a olergsnusn, but
had subsequently studied at a first-class medical col
lege, established by the Haat India Company at Madras,
in connection with which he detailed several interest
ing partionlars, bearing upon the subject of educational
institutions. Hs saved number of humorous instanoe
of their domestic difficulties. It was a eastern among
the Hindoom he said, to have the kitchen severe—
ted from the dwelling, and, speaking of the ill beha
vior of the native servants, he told tie that en English
gentleman had one morning walked to the kitchen, and
foetid his large, lazy Hindoo cook !ring on the flat of his
back. with the bread for his master's breakfast stuck
between his toes, toasting before the fire. This, he
thought, wan almost enough to have provoked chaatise
meet, but, in doing so, they are liable to prosecution.
How the cook escaped having his feet searched off, du
ring the above operation, was duly explained.
But be mu not prepared to lay that the East India
Company had done nothing in that country that wag rep
rehensible. Thera we., indeed, much to blast their
good, the direct cause of which was sittriboted bi
their undue lore of wealth and power. The truth wee,
it wee to the sadly unchristian conduct of these Chris
tian rulers that their misdoing. were traceable.' They
had, ip fact, been guilty, in many oases, of the grossest
emulation of the errors of the people they sought to
Improve, and so incurred their suspicion and contempt.
The lecturer then took a rapid glance at the leading
historical events of the country through teveral centu
ries, up to the period when the second great erisis_in
India, since his residence there, had ()conned—the re
bellion. It must be remembered that there were in that ,
country about thirty million Mohammedans, if wewould
understand the real cause of that outbreak. Hie own
home was about eighty mites due west of Madras, Pro- '
seeding to the mutiny, he described some of the unequal
cone etc which had occurred between the natives and
the Englighsoldiers. One case of epeeist interest, and
which elieited.no small amount of merriment, was
noses in which a handful of men had gained a strong.
hold under a wall where they were attacked with fu
none violence by a numerous band of natives. From
the superierity of their position they - were enabled to
maintain their Post for hours, and finally, when their
last ballet bed been discharged, one of the men took
a silver cola from hie racket. beat it into shape to be
rammed into hie musket, and clillobarged it into the body
of one of the fiercest of his nuallants, exclaiming, as he
did so, " There, you blackguard, give the change of that
rupee, will you I"
He had been present there during the late rebellion,
and had witnessed the dreadful surge of insurreetioe,
Bengal was for the time being gone, and. practically,
English rule wee at au end. It was, however, not a Pop
ular insurrection ; it wee apolitical movement, set on
foot by the Mummmedans. These were, of all men.
moat addicted to rebellion. They needed no persuasion
to throw off a Yoke at any time. The course they took
to enlist the Hindooe in this movement, was by aim-
Meng that the Commit ,in some insidious way, in
tended forcibly to deprive them of their religion sae
castes. This was the mat cause of the rebellion. and
its chief agents had been the Mahommedans and the
Bengal army.
The want of faith in the East fans Compeer, which
hed been wide!, excited, paved the way for an uprisim ,
fearful as a conflagration. and the result which Wawa,:
wee inevitable. In this connection he compared the
estimation in LIM MCIS(014611IS are held by the ea
tense, wish the resent :bet is entertained for the "om
Pane,erbleh was greet], to the disadvantage of the let
ter. The Towson of this was. that the former were ho
nest in denouncing the errors of the Kindest.. Whilst the
letter gluier a falu gets° pandered to their religion and
outer.; thereby iliffirririlt the Ash* of hypocrisy and
the contempt of the people.
'That this nation' had been marked with diabolical
deeds oe 00VA - of ttier natives a as not, to he doubted
nor vu it unlikely that the kinglishae gm& initaroma
had been carried to extremes by their ire. Were it not
that time would fail him, he should tell of the deed. of
heroism In that conflict between Uwe of ;deed-thirst)
men and little handful. of Englishmen. Tee name of
Ilevelock, the pious and the brave, was greeted by the
audience with immense apPlausi.
Delhi was 'the centre of the rebellion, and under its
walls no less than twenty-three defensive battles had
been fought by a band of three thousand English sol
diers against fearful : o(lde, having fought. tiled, and died
without a murmur. it was a fact that India. by the
help of God, had rescued herself without any aid from
abroini, for practically the backbone of the rebellion had
been broken in the streets of Delhi before any assistance
came to hand. Among the matdente 'elated of the in
surrection was the following: An Englishman and his
wife had been surrounded by a horde of savage Indiana
while in their carriage. They endeavored to make
their escape by flight. To do this, the lady took the
reins and lashed the horse forward, whilst the husband
employed himself in reloading his gun and shooting
down one after another of their assailants as he at
tempted to seise the home. or mount upon the ve
hicle. Still, forward the lady pressed the horse, till
finally, despair seemed to stare them in the face as they
saw a strong rope extended zeroes the road directly in
front of them. Undaunted, however, the lady pressed
with ',mewed fury the animal In whose strength their
salvation now depended, and with one desperate plunge
the barrier wee broken and their escape was erected.
So much, said he, for the noble daring of • brave
woman, whereupon the speakir called upon bachelors
if there were any present, to g 0 atraightway and"
married."
Ludy, India, under various rulers, had at hat been
brought ender that of the white man. who came with
hie telegraphs, his locomotives, and machinery, and
with what was not for one but for all'imtions—the
blessed Book of God. No man, said he, who was ac
quainted with English history or English men ociuld be
here for a moment that she would ever allow any other
Power to wrest India from her possession. There were
some who said that India must he given up because
didn't pay; and if this be go," he continued, "it is in
deed an unanswerable argument, for if a thing don't
Pay it's got to die." But this calculation was fallacious.
and owed its source, if it existed at all, to the
monopoly of the Bast India Company, and that
monopoly should be remedied by the English Go
vernment. which there was reason to beam would
corm be done. Wm, ton, must be Ohristianieed. The
Londos. /IMF, whiph nobody suspected of being over
,religious. had once looked out from its wisdom on the
darkened corpses at Delhi, and sad that, " tf England
wanted to keep India, India must be Christianized!.
This was the utterance of a true prophecy. When this
is accomplished, then, and not until then, will the ad
vantageous results of English domain over India bn
roily realised. Then only would s its national prosperity
be seen to bud and li'oseom.
This grand result the missionaries had vowed :to ae
on nplish, pot in their own strength. of course, hitit in the
siren ith of Him who rules among the nations. Nor wise
this a vain vow. A. missionary had once vowed to enter
into the heart of a territory, and thirty-two times was
he kid upon his book with a fever, and thirty-two timee

hand, and a big bottle of quinine in the other, ho accom
plished his I ow, and from that time forth the name of
Li. ingetone had fitly becomen household word of praise
and admiration all over the world.
The missionaries knew no gaol. thing ea discourage-
That woe a word long sines expunged from their
vocabulary f.nd even today, in accordance with their
faith, the tiiumphe of Christianity in India were aeon

TUE NEW BRIDGE OVER THE .SCRIM= AT

called the "Penrose Ferry Bridge Company," was
chartered by the Legislature of Penns, Ivania. The
object was to construct s bridge over the river Sehayl

Ferry." as it re called. Owing to some least dechnone
whorls interposed objections to bridges over itavtgabili
streams, its offering obstructions to navigation, the cot
merators concluded not to operations, and the
matter remained dormant until August a l639. when the
company wee reorganized, by the eleotion of Pearson
