Quite an exciting debute occurred
upon the above question, which was
presented by tlie Chairman of the
House Committee who are now con
lucting the investigation into the
Belknap uflenees. XMr. Clyiner, o:

t question pi privilege, stated tliat a
?ul?poona had been served on him is
sued by the&upreme^Uourt of the Dis
trict of Columbia, sitting as a criminal
court, to appear befofe tiiat court and
oring with, him all tiie papers, checks,
locuments, &c., and^to testify in re
.aid to the charges^pending in that
>-ourt against 'he l|tte Secretary 01
War. Two of his colleagues, Messrs.
Kohbins, 'of North} Carolina, and
Blackburn, of Keiftucky, had been
similarly subpceuaed lie .(Clyrnwr)
Had appeared before jthat court, and
.iad stated that, in obedience to the
