APPROPRIATIONS BILL.
On motion of MIR. Ehhes. the House re-
solved itself into a committee OF TIE whole,
Mr. Cults in the chair, on the bill making
appropriations for the support of the go
vernment during the year 1870
= A motion was made to strike out the clause
q
centum pthe salaries of the clerks of the
public Offices. Mr. Bacon, Tallmadge,
Montgomery and Root supported the mo-
tion. and Messrs. Eppes. Johnson. Lyon,
Smile, Qwincy, Rhea, Mumford. Shelley,
and Taylor opposed it-Negatived So tool.
There is in the bill a provision for
repaying the Bank of tue United States a
sum advanced to the late collector Of New
Orleans. to enable him To pay drawbacks"
This blank was filed with the sum Of 100 COO
dollars.
Messrs. Quincy, Lyon. Goldsborough,
Emctt and Key, objected to the appropria-
tion in the bill of 1000 dollars for a minister
to Madrid. as we had no minister there,
and making such an appropriation would be
sanction of this House to such a mission to
proceed forthwith; to which they objected.
Even if it were proper now to send minis
ter to Madrid, there was no occasion for an
appropriation for that object. because the
President had already a power TO send
minister to any nation, if he thought proper
toexercisc it.
Messrs. Eppes. Bacon, Root, Rhca, (T.)
NJ kim, w. Aston. and Montgomery, re
piled that this was included in the estimate
from the Treasury Department, and was
no doubt intended to meet the appointment
of a minister to Spain. whenever the govern.
ment should be settled, whether Joseph or
Ferdinand swayed the sceptre, whether the
king was selected from the Napoleon or Bour-
bon dynasty. Whenever the government
Of Spain was settled, we ought to have mi
mister there.
The appropriation was refused to be in
serted-52 to SIS.
After filling varioas blanks the committee
rose at O'Clock, reported progress, and
asked leave to sit again.
