Orders of the Day.

The hill dividing tbe State into Congressional Districts,

coming up,

The question l>eing on the agreement to the amendment of Mr. English, to place Lawrence ami Monroe in the 2.1 District, ami Scott and Clark in the 3d, it was de-

cided in the negative.

The question then recurred on striking out the original hill and inserting the substitute submitted by Mr.

Stuart.

Mr. Stuart withdrew the hill he had formerly offered,

and introduced the following as a substitute:

1. Posey. Vanderburgh, Warriek, Spencer, Dubois,

Pike, Gibson, Knox, Daviess, and Martin.

2. Perty, Crawford, Harrison, Floyd, Clark, Wash-

ington, Orange, and Lawrence.

3. Brown. Bartholomew, Jackson, Jennings, Scott,

Jefferson, and Switzerland.

4. Ohio, Dearborn, Ripley, Decatur, Franklin, and

Rush.

5. Fayette, Union, Wayne, Henry, Randolph, and Delaware. 6. Hancock, Shelby, Johnson, Marion, Hendricks, and Morgan. 7. Green, Monroe, Owen, Putnam, Parke, Vigo, Chy, aud Sullivan. 8. Vermillion, Fountain, Warren, Tippecanoe, Montgomery. Clinton, and Boone. 9. Carroll, Cass. Miami. Fulton, Marshall, Laporte. Staikc, Pulaski, White, Benton, Jasper, Lake, and Porter. 10. St. Joseph, Elkhart, Lagrange, Steuben. DeKalb, Noble, Kosciusko, Whiiley, and Allen. 11. Adams, Wells, Huntington, Wabash, Jay, Blackford, Grant, Howard, Tipton, Madison, and Hamilton. Mr. Stuart opposed at some length the formation of the 8th, 9th and 10th Districts as reported by tbe committee, and advocated his substitute. Mr. Spencer moved to amend the substitute by detaching Switzerland from the 3.1 and attaching it to the 4ih District. Mr. Spencer said the citizens of that county desired to be so connected. Messrs. Davis and Doughty advocated the bill of the committee. Mr. Torhet moved to refer the bill to a select committee of one from each Congressional District to act with a similar committee on the part of the Senate. Mr. Torhet said it was no use to disguise the fact that the democratic party are trying to form democratic districts, and they think it is the duty of democrats to do so. because their principles are best adapted to the government. He hoped the hill w’ould l»e referred that the subject might he properly digested before final action be had in the House. Mr. Modgett opposed the reference. Ho desired to have a test vote on the hill of the committee before any disposiiion is made of it. If it was then ascertained that a majority of the House was opposed to the bill, he was willing that such disposition should be made of it, as tbe House might think proper. Mr. Buskirk favored the reference. He contended that great injustice had been done the old 6th Congressional District. She was the banner district of the State, hut now she has been severed to accommodate districts adjoining. She has been so divided that but two connties remain in the same district. He thought that his district had not been properly treated. Mr. Beeson opposed the proposition to attach Switzerland county to the 4th District. He said it was done fir the purpose of throwing Rush couniy into the “ burnt district.” The motion to refer the hill to a select committee of one from each Congressional District was decided in tho negative,—ayes 32, noes 56. The question then recurred on the adoption of Mr. Spencer’s amendment to the substitute of Mr. Stuart ; it was decided in the negative—ayes 32, noes 49. The question recurred on striking out the bill reported by the committee and inserting the substitute of Mr.

Stuart.

Mr. Brady demanded a division of the question. The question recurred on striking nut, which was decided in the negative—ayes 29, noes 56. The question then recurring on ordering the bill to he engrossed fora third reading, Mr. Stuart warned the democrats against the great injustice which this bill would do to the 9th or Northwestern District. He asked justice to he done—he wanted nothing more, and he hoped the House would grant it. Mr. McDonald said that he was from tbe 9th Diatrict, and he titonght that a majority of the people in that District was in favor of the hill as reported. The opposition to this bill has come from persons who are looking forward to some political position. Mr. Torl»ct said that he made the motion to re-com-mit to harmonize the conflicting elements in this House, and not for the purpose of creating a factious opposition as has Iteen intimated. Mr. Donaldson said he wished it understood that Mr. McDonald was not the mouth peace of tbe democracy of the 9th District. Mr. McDonald asked who were? Mr. Donaldson said that we all are. Mr. McDonald said then I suppose I am oee of them. After which some personal conversation occurred between the two gentlemen. Mr. Stuart said that if be occupied the position of Mr. McDonald, he would certainly favor this bill. For he (Mr. McDonald) would hold the balance of power, with his eleven hundred free-soilert. He spoke at some length against the formation of ike 9th District. Mr . Brady said he was for doing justice. He'thought from looking npon the map that the bill was a fair one, hot he thought that we should adjourn until Monday to let memliers settle their diffieoltics if possible. Mr. Don.. Id son moved that the House adjourn, which was decided in the negative—ayes 33. nnes 5$. Tbn hill as reported by the eomesittee was then erdared to he engrossed for a third rending, as follows: .dyes—Barker. Bench. Beaaa. Beeson. Brady. Bella. Carpenter. Cbowning. Ceckrnm. Davie, Dice.
