TRIAL OF GILV. HOUSTON.
Mr. Robert Murray, jr., testified to the habits of IsJhcr Blake and the manner in
which he left this city. Captain Jlawldns testified as to the habits, &c. of iAiiher
Blake, and his explanation of the cause of
his hostility to Gov. Houston. Dr. Daris, of South Carolina, gave evidence in relation to a reconciliation which Blale recently sought through him, with General Houston, and also in regard to other occurrences between Blake and the deponent. In the course of his examination, Dr. Daris was asked bv Mr. Cooke, of Ohio, how long he had been in Washington, and u hat was his business here? Messrs. Whittlesey and
McDufeie, objected to this question as improper, and suggested its being withdrawn. Dr. Davis "hoped it would not be withdrawn, as he could easily satisfy the gentleman on that point or any other' Mr. Cooke then struck out that portion ofthe interrogatory which is in Italic. When Dr. Davis had finished his testimony, fc left the stand, Mr. Stanberry rose, for the purpose, he said, of calling the attention ofthe House to another breach of privilege. He had overheard the witness who had left the stand, as he passed out ofthe Hall, make a remark to a member of the House, which evidently implied an intention to make an assault upon his colleague, (Mr. Cooke,) who would probably be the next victim. Upon this
annunciation, some conversation took place

Green relating to the contemplated fraud, which was determined in the negative, ayes 40, noes 101. Mr. Paving was then called by Mr. Staneekrv to prove

ment when he had seen him. A. D. llaU
was then called, who stated the circumstances under which Blake's affidavit had been sworn to. An interrogatory was then put to Mr. Stanrerry by Mr. Whittlesey when it was answered, Air. Coulter said the Committee had not taken upon themselves to enquire after evidence. The
House had reserved to itself the right of
determining whether other witnesses should
be called. So far as regarded the duties of
the Committee under the rules, their func
tions were closed. Mr. Stanrerry said if
the House wished to go into the examina
tion of the contemplated fraud, he was of
opinion that it could be proved. Mr. Polk said he was assured the friends ofthe parties who had been charged in this matter were entirely willing to meet any investigation, at this or any other time. He had himself enquired into the circumstances that had been so often alluded to, and was satisfied that enquiry would result in the perfect acquittal of those individuals from all blame.
