Af r-rtlicir decision uiion the previous question this motion wa decided bv the Speaker to be not then in order. Mr. Elmendort appealed from the decision of the Sneaker. It was de crniined lo take the question on this appeal by yeas and nays, i iio lei a. was iust rcadv to 'begin, when, to escape from this whimsical embarrassment, an adjournment was moved and carried by the muusicrialnts.

p.inri nr a letter from Washington, to the Editor sf ilin n.izeiiee of the United Stales, The scene exhibited on ihe 21st, upon the amendment ofl'ered by Mr. Dennis, was diver lievond descrtniion. The federal reiiuLIi cans resolved lo use every effort in their power to make part ol the reduction tit revenue fall upon those articles of necessity svhirh are exclusively used by tlie labouring part of ihe community The president's sect labouring with equal assiduity to prevent these erlorls from appearing in the 'proceedings ot the house. For this purpose they votcu against, an express rule oi the house and against ine ilu ir own sneaker, to divide the mo.ion of Mr. Dennis for striking out the words 4 sales at auction' and inserting in place of them, the word entfee.

After rejecting the motion tor striking out they were thrown into a most ludicrous perplexity on the question of inserting. Thev maintained that no vote cud I be taken, inasmuch as no place was designa'ed for the in sertion. 1 lie speaker said thai a voie must tx-hodi rvarts of a motion vhich vl been divided and tlie federal republicans told then Hat if OuV b4 re Vcecl the tAtbfert jo nunscnac ami ab-artli it ow bnJy mxk. aivd Uatl a thry insisted upon ttiinn. up lh inolion.

MONDAY, APRIL 3, IM. Inked hardly declare that it it with reluc tance inexpressible I find myelf compelled to obtrude my ersoiial concern on the attention of the public. Sensible that an apology is ne cessary for occupying that portion of my with my own tubjoct, which ought to be allot, ted to the amusement of itt'reade I beg per- mission to ay that I owe it lo the respectable patronage with which my excrtiont are honor cd, to a regard for ray connexion and and I lrut I may without indecorum add, to a projnrr degree of self-respect, to repel in the licit manner I am able, all which strike directly at my integrity. In the Citizen of January last appeared a paragraph, in which the Editor of that papar, after attempting to fix some dishonorable conduct on me, charged me with having withheld from Col. Burr hi part of the profit ofour law partnerships which, taking tlie whole par agraph in connection, must be intended to mean a fraudulent withholding.

After con sulting with some of my friends, I wrote in the evening' paper of the same day, a short reply, from which the following an extract "Ii is unfortunate for the truth that Col. Burr i absent at Washington, else in a short time, every slanderous fact staled in the libel should lie completely disproved. A detail of the private concerns of the Editor and Col. Burr would be now indelicate and improper, as it that gentleman. The Editor contents himsclt at present, with declaring, that none of his com er with Col.

Burr need raise a temporary uneasiness on his account, in the mind of the most scrupulous. Of this he solemnly pledges to produce, in due time, the most satisfactory pronl. Uc ha reason to believe, that these alumnie have been long since circulated in dark whispers and in a manner not to be traced they are now openly and unequivocally published to the world Of the spargere voces in rulgutn ambiguat, it was not possible to take the proper notice; they have at length come out, and they shaH be fairly and openly encountered." When I committed myself thus fully, I relied for proof, partly on facts re corded in books and papers, but principally on Col. Burr himself. I did believe that the polit ical differences which existed between that gentleman and myself and which it was always well understood had subsisted both before or acquaintance, and during its continuance, would not have had any weight with him in a case of this kind a case in which I thought he owed it to himself as well as to me, to have been prompt and explicit.

Although I was not ignorant that Col. Burr does not number me in the list of his friends, yet disdaining to harhnur anv unworthy suspicions, I wrote to him the following letter, in the full confidence, must be seen, of receiving a fair and satis factory answer. AVu-Vor. Jan. 18, 1902.

I nm. Sir, Your obedient Servant, i Wm. COLEMAN. Tothehon. Aaron Burr, Esa.

By the mail of the 29th January, I received a letter fiom General Morri, dated th 55tirf of which tlie following is an extract Ag eeably to your request, I waited on Colonel Burr this morning and presented him-your letter. He informed me tliat he had anticipated you, and showed me copie of two letter, under date of the 2 1st inst. directed to jvlr. accompanied with parugraph for Mr. Chcttham to puUUh, and which letters I.

Iiarl directed him to you. I think these lclters contain every thing you wish ii answer to your request. Tlie following letter, written the same day to Colonel Burr, will render any narrative here superfluous New-York, January 29, SIR. r. ed a leller this morning from Uen- eral Morri, informing me, that in compliaiw with my request, he had ca led on you ana ae- ivcred you my letter, and that you informed lim vou had anticipated my request." (copying the above.) Permit me, sir, to make you my best acknowledgments, and those af my family, for as nrvtm nt niiemnt.

before vou were sidicit- ed, to remove the cal jmny which hat been a wantonly levelled against me. A soon as I received the information, 1 wrote a note to Mr. to ak him if ha had yet seen any thing of your letters i He- IT i T. Iltf lias since been at my omce, to ten ni had come to hand in due lime, but mat tvaa vested with a discretion, or wa on such terms with you as to feel himself at liberty to exercise it, whether to shew the letters and make the publication, or not; and that it was his opinion that as Colonel Burr's name had been brought before the public in this affair, without his knowledge or consent, he had nothing to do with it, and ought not to appear in it that he had declined to call on Cheelham with the paragraph, because 1 Tha the had not before called on me, because he had hoped I should be wil ing to let the subject die away, without seeking in llu or any other manner to revive it. He informed me that he had written to you on the subject, to impress you with a sense of the propriety of thi proceeding, and that as soon as he should hear from you he would call on me? again.

I told him I would at bis request, wait for vour answer but that as I liad engaged to the public that I would exculpate myself from the charges which hai been made, I shonli certainly hold mvself fxmnd to fulfil the obligationthat although I could readily allow for the feelings of Colonel Burr, and the. sensibility of hi friends, yet that something was al-o di'. in raw own fi-t'linir. and lire en-ibility of those connected xvith me, which had been more deeply wounded than even my own.
