Speaker Keifer Casi? tho Vote Which Formed thc fjaorura ?nd Puts the Xegro in the Boose-Slr. Calkins' Negative Vote. (Special dispatch to the Philadelphia Times.) WASHINGTON, July 19.-Another col? ored Keprescotative from the South oust? ed a Democrat to-day. Thc vote was 141 yeas against 5 nays on the ques? tion of divine Robert Smalls the seat of George D. Tillinau, of South Caroliua. From the outset the proceedings to-day were interesting, although the palm of humor was awarded to Mr. Herr, of Michigan, who enjoyed himself and amused the spectators with his caustic jibes at the Democratic contest?e. The strongest point was exhibiting a map io which the redistricting of South Carolina was set out, and in a dispute between himself and Mr. Atherton, of Ohio, he referred to the gerrymander? ing of certain portions of the Buckeye State as being "as disgraceful as the villainous system adopted in South Caro? lina."' Mr. Horr extolled the virtues of the Republican party at great length. When he concluded he sat down, apparently well satisfied with his effort, but was made to squirm visibly when Mr. Tillman, speaking in his own behalf, characterized the Michiganders actions as similar to the antics of a clown in a circus. WriAT MR. TILMAS SAID. This was more than Mr. Horr could bear, and he attempted to interrupt the South Carolinian, but was .sternly or? dered to sit down and stop playing the buffoon-that he was old enough to know better. This rather disconcerted the humorist of the Republican side, who waxed very wroth at not being allowed a chance to reply and was with difficul? ty pressed down in his seat. After paying his respects to Mr. Horr the South Carolina Representative stated confidently that he would be returned to Congress again this Fall and by such , a majority that no one could set it aside. I He proceeded in a witty manner to j show the hardships a contestant met J with at Washington, and said he spoke ! from experience, having been through j the mill twice. He was partial in con? demning the action of both sides in his case, and claimed, moreover, that the Democrats had deserted him when they were in power in order to placate pub- j lie sentiment and put in Smalls. A COMMOTION OVER ~MR. CALKINS. j He was listened to very attentively, j and as he poured hot shot indiscrimina- ! 'tily into the camps of the two parties he was rewarded with generous and con- j tinued applause. It was stated opeuly j about the Capitol to-day that Chairman* j Calkins, of the Elections C m mitte, j was opposed to the seatiug ot Smalls, j and considerable anxiety was manifest- j ed to see what his course would be in ; the matter. When his name was j reached on the first roll-call, relative to j adopting the majority report in favor of ! Smalls. Mr. Calkins did uot vote, In-1 stantly he was beset by his Republican ! associates, who urged and entreated j him to stand by the party. When the j second call was made Mr. Calkins, in a ; low tone said, "aye," greatly to the dc- j light of those around him. But a !" bombshell could hardly have created more havoc in the Republican ranks j than the. announcement by Mr. Calkins, ! before the result of the vote was stated, j that he wished to change his vote. ? t MR. CALKINS CHANGES HIS VOTE. - , . I Speaker Kiefer, not relishing such a ; state of affairs, persisted in looking the i wrong way while ' Mr. Calkins was j clamoring for recognition. Fiually the j latter, in thuuder toues, demanded that I the Speaker should recognize him, and j in a reluctant manner the Speaker j awarded the floor to the gentleman from [ Iudiana, who was surrounded by his ! friends, anxiously entreating bini to j stick by his first vote. 'It is no use ? appealing to me getlemen,' replied Mr. Calkius,' I cannot reconcile my con- j science to vote for Mr. Smalls, and i I therofore desire my vote recorded j with the negative instead of the | affirmative.' The excitement follow-1 ing this announcement had scarcely ! subsided when Speaker Keifer stated that in calling the roil on the proposi? tion declaring Mr. Tillman not entitled to a seat the Clerk had made a mistake in footing up the result, and that there were ouly one hundred and forty-five votes, only one less than a quorum. This did not make any difference, how? ever, for the Speaker directed his name to be recorded in order to make a quo? rum, and made the statement in order j to prevent any further complications. . EX-SPEAKER RANDALL'S OBJECTIONS. ? As another roll-call had intervened before the Speaker made this announce? ment ex-Speaker Randall objected to such an arbitrary proceeding, stating that there was no preceedeut for such action and that a quorum had not voted on the measure. The Speaker retorted with the assertion that Mr. Randall on two occasions had exercised the same privilege. This was denied by the Pennsylvania Representative, who ob? jected to being misquoted by the Speak? er or any one else. A tumult was at once iuaguratcd, greatly to the edifica? tion t>f the throng in the galleries, and every member on both sides of the chamber was on his feet waving the books of rules and demanding a hearing. Speaker Keifer, as usual, became angry, and in his fury, while pounding on the desk struck an instand with thc gavel and shivered it, the contents be? ing splashed over the papers on the desk and the backs of the reading clerks just below. The Speaker's lieu? tenants, Messrs. Reed and Robeson en? deavored to help him out of his scrape but he was so enraged that he could not distinguish friend or foe io the how? ling mob around him. MR. REED AND SPEAKER KEIFER. Finally Mr. Reed, who is Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, crept stealthily up to the desk, and, in angry, tone, plainly audible in the reporter's J gallery, said : 'Look here, Keifer, why don't you let us help you ? You arc the cause of all this trouble, but if you will assist by recognizing us, we can man? age those fellows on the other side.' ? Before the Speaker could reply, Mr. Reed discovered a knot of correspon? dents on the alert for the answer, and hurriedly returned to his seat. Mr. Robeson, in his most bullying manner, was shaking his fist at the opposition, and howling : 'Mr. Speaker, 1 demand to be heardl' until, in order to quiet him, he was allowed to speak. He made the point that no question had been raised ; that the voiu was regular at the time, and consequently that it \ was too late. MU. SMALLS TAKES THE OATH. This afforded the Democrats an op- j portuuity to get in the remark that they 1 knew nothiog of any irregularity till the Speaker announced it. Speaker Keifer had the journal of the House read, in order to show that ex-Speaker Randall had acted on a former occasion as he was doing, but it was only de? monstrated that Mr. Randall had exer? cised bis prerogative to vote on a cer? tain question relating to changes in the journal ; 'but,' as Mr. Randall prompt? ed, 'never on a question of a quorum, as you have just acknowledged to Lave done.' There was a lull in the battle for a minute, which was taken advan? tage of by Mr. Waite to urge that Smalls be sworn io. Before any ob? jection could bo interposed the Speaker, glad to be relieved of any further trou? ble, proceeded to administer the oath to the new Representative and the excite? ment died away. Small's first vote was recorded in favor of a quorum to take up the case of Smith against Shelley, in which the elections committee recom? mend that the seat be declared vacant. The case was put in shape for discus? sion and the House adjourned. Composed of the best known tonics, iron aud cinchona, with well known aromatics, is Brown's Iron Bitters.

Although Mr. Sauders has been a most zealous Demo? crat, working with might aud main in every campaign, in whatever direction, he could best serve Sumter County, and further the cause of the democracy, it is not for this rea? son that he is now endorsed by the best and most influential citizens for Sheriff, but by reason of his qualifications and peculiar tact for thc office.
