Mr. Hawkins, of Fla. asked to be excused from serving on the committee. He had been informed that if he refused without being formally excused, he would be reprimanded by the House, but his main reason for making the request was that he did not believe in the appointment of committees for Union-saving purposes now, as he had believed heretofore. The time for compromise had passed.
