LIVELY TIMES AMONG THE REPRESENTATIVES.
WORDY WAR OVER TITE ELECTORAL RESOLUTION.
PROPOSITION TO PASS A NATIONAL ELECTION LAW,
LIVELY DAT CI THE UOTJSB. WASHINGTON, Decomber 8,—The House had a lively day. To hurry up matters for a vote on the Morgan Election count rule, the Democrats made an attempt to dispense with the morning hour, but this was defeated by the Republicans.
Fernado Wood gave notice that he should withdraw his refunding bill that had been made a special order for the day until the controversy was settled in relation to the Electoral count.
Mr. Conger tried to shame him out of position, submitting that it was more important to consider the vital question of funding the Nutional debt than to occupy time*in political discussion-. The public credit must be protected and politics could go over. Wood, however, presist ed in his course, and there was no help for it but to put in another day in debate.
THE CGNTRAL FIGURE
Of the day was Ho&eson, who occupied the floor, speaking on the legality of the proposed measure, and answ*ring a volley of questions showered upon him by Hunton, of Virginia, McLean, of Maryland, and Sunset Cox.
Willits, ofMichigan, made a speech of half au hour, and then Robeson beiran. Th^ Democrats manifested more inclination to listen than on the day before. As he proceeded about flftv Republican members gathered around him, and when General Hunton opened on him with a cross fire of questions, standing but a few feet away, he was also surrounded by his colleagues. Robeson held that the proposed rule was unconstitutional because Congress and the Vice President only acted in a ministerial, not a judicial sense in counting the Electoral vote. "Suppose,', he said, "II. L. Morey should send in forged returns, under this rule* there was nothing to hinder such a rote from being counted."
General Hunton then undertook to show that by passing on the certificates of the Electoral vote tue Vice Presideht and Congress did perform a judicial act.
This Mr. Robeson showed to be true only in so far as the doing of any ministe rial act presupposes the exercise of judgment enough to make the proper selection. Mr. Hunton retorted that unless the act Was judcial, mistakes might be made, just as au employe of his might count a number of goats in his flock of sheep. Robeson said if the Electoral votes came indorsed and authenticated they were sheep, and if not they were goats. So far was the action of the Vice President judicial, in opening, counting and announcing the vote.
Then Sunset Cox came ^forward briskly and read a supposed case of returns tampered with in transmisaion, and the insertion of Hancock and English's names in place of Garfield and Arthur's making the former elected.
This was cheered on the Democratic side, but Robeson answered it by reciting a fact Cox had evidently not thought of that returns were transmitted, by different routes in triplicate, so they could not be all changed very well. Cox subsided, Hunton ana McLean took up the cudgel again and continued to hammer away at Robeson, who took1 it witfi the utmost good nature, causing roars of laughter by some of bis hits.
Kiefer thought he would relieve him and came down the aisle to the front and took Hunton to task for erronous statements.
Robeson's argument claimed marked attention and caused general comment for ability and strength.
A
NATIONAL ELECTION LAW*.
Senator Teller introduced a bill to-day that will excite interesting debate. He proposes a National election law. fixing the size and color of the ticket, requiring the ballot-box to be placed in sight of voters, providing for witness of count, which must be made without adjournment as soon ivs the polls are closed. State laws are to remain in force where they do not conflict with tills act. He

THBKSTTKEX) utrr.
Genera] McCook's bill, introduced in the House to day. to place General Grant on the retired list, with the rank and pay of General of the Army, will meet some opposition on the part of the Southern Democrats. They manifest a resentment on account of his arraignment of alleged political methods In his Warren speech.
General McCook is not regarded in New York as a particular friend of that faction of the Republican party which idolizes General Grant He, however, is a bosom friend of General Garfield, and whatever he rcccommeods concerning General Grant mar be reasonably suppoe ed to have Genera.

*V JCELLOGG'S SEAT.
Senator Hill says, that a meeting of the Committee on Privileges and Elections will #hortly be held to consider the new phale of the Kellogg case, as involved in theDresentation of the credientials of Mr. Manning appointed by Governor Wilte to continue the contest begun by Spofford for the seat now held by Kel !og$
If is understood that this is the opinion also of other Senators on the oeratic side, nnd some of them, in ing several who are oft the record as sed to seating Mr. Kellogg are anxthat the case shall be definitely decided. Several of the Southern Democrats have said that it will not be wise to leafe the question an open one, as it may furnish a precedent which the Republicans under certain circumstances might follow up to the great disadvantage of th#r opponents.
GES IN COUNTING ELECTORAL VOTE UNDER MORGAN RESOLUTION. ie Morgan resolution provides an entirely new method of counting and declaring the Electoral vote. Under the Twenty-second Joint Rule, which governed the proceeding of the joint convention of the two housds for a number of years prior to 1876, the vote of the two houses was necessary to reject the Electoral vote of a State which was disputed. The Morgan^ rule, which Democrats are now attempting to pass, places it within the power of either House to reject the Electoral vote of a State.
MEXICAN BLOOD UP.
An Attempt to Arrest a Mexican Captain Failed. SAN FRANCISCO, December 8.—A few days ago a Mexican, Clodoniero Cota.'was arrested under extradition, on a charge of felony. A writ of habeas corpus was got out and the judge of the superior court ordered the commander of the Mexican gun-boat, Democrata, to whose charge the prisoner had been turned over, to produce him in court. The commander refused, alleging want of jurisdiction. The court then sent the sheriff to the gunboat with two warrauts, one for Clodoniero, £nd the other for the arrest of the commander for contempt of court.
The sheriff and party returned from the Mexican gun-boat, Democrata, about half past ten. Two boats, with Sheriff Desmond and two deputies, Cola's brother, and a number of representatives of the press, left the wharf about half-past seven. On arriving within about a half cable's length of the Democrata they were hailed, and ordered to keep off. Cota rose in the boat and hailed the steamer, when his voice was recognized. A swivel gun was trained on the boat, and a party of marines jumped on the bridge and brought their rifles to bear. In a few moments a boat put off from the Democrata with an officer and a squad of marines. After a brief conference the sheriff was transferred to the Mexican boat and taken on board the Democrata. A long Interview ensued on board. The sheriff served his warrant for the arrest of SenorCeriso. commander of- the vessel, but that officer refused to submit, and retired to his state room, and a marine was stationed at the door who, on the sheriff attempting to enter, threatened to run him through with a bayonet. The sheriff finally retired to his boat, and he pulled ashore. The Democrata has steam up ready to leave. It is not known yet whether her departure will !e permitted. The United 8tates steam corvette Pensa cola, and the Alaska were anchored out side of the Democrata, and a boat from the former boarded the gunboat just after the sheriff withdrew, but the nature of the conference is unknown.
THE PRISONER DELIVERED. 8hortly after midnight the Mexican Cata was brought to the city prison by the Mexican consul, and given in charge to be produced in court to-morrow. In view of this action it is probable no further steps will be taken for the arrest of the commander of the Democrata.

WASHINGTON, IND., Dec. 9.—The min era in two of the largest coal mines here struck to-day. They are now receiving 85 and 87}4 cents per car, the cars averaging seventy bushels each. The strikers demand an advance of ten cents per car. At a meeting this afternoon they decided to hold out until their demands are complied with. They claim to be in a good condition to stand a protracted strike.
SULLIVAN.
SULLIVAN,December9.—The Union this week criticises severely the Democratic Grand Jury, for indicting young Gatt, Republican, for p.erjury, etc., and refusing to return bills against other parties for greater offenses. It has been satisfactorily explained why the Grand Jury is composed entirely of Democrats, so soon after a campaign, but the reason is becoming apparent.
The Commissioner's Court is in session this week, and the usual number of road eases are being tried. Two applications for liquor license have been rejected on technical grounds.
GOSHEN.
GOSHEN, IND., December 9.—The water in the canal which furnishes the power for a majority Qt the manufacturing establishments and mills of the city broke through the banks, last night, near Davis & Drake's saw mill, doing considerable damage to the mill and carrying away about 30,000 feet of lumber. Iiy this ac cidcnt a large number of men are thrown out of employment, and the city has no adequate means to suppress a fire should one occur, as the pumps used by the city for fire purposes are run by water power on the canal. •••j-s iT
