the measure--and concluded with moving
reconsideration Of the last vote; which was
lost.
MIR. Preston followed in a short speech of
remarkable force and eloqnence, also in op-
position TO the measure: and after few re.
marks from Mr.. Knigh: of r. l., the question
was taken on the final passage OF the bill: and
carried-Ayes 81. Nays IS.
Alter some unimportant proceedings, the
Senate went into executive business; and
after being engaged for conside rable time
therein, the Senate adjourned.
] send you report of the proceedings of
last evening. You will perceive that Mr..
Bell offered u most important amendment
1t was to add section, requiring that the
money remaining in the Treasury on the first
of January, 1888, be deposited with the sew
eral states, according TO the provision Of the
deposite act Of last session.
] wish the whole country could have seen
the tumult this proposition produced in the
ranks of the party; and which was increased
if possible, when in the House to-day, Mr..
Bell moved the same proposition as all amend
ment to the section, making appropriations
for the erection Of Notifications at New Lon
don, and Penobscot, and thus put it out of
their power to cut OFF the proposition by the
previous question.
Up rose partisan after partisan of the Pre-
sident Of the spoilsmen, TO oppose with yehe-
mence this odions scheme, which has the eff
feet Of returning to the pockets of the people,
the money of the people. Oh! 1t was rare
to see how PATRIOTS struggled against this
attempt tn interfere with their money-making
vocation. The proposition wascarried in spite
of the resistance Of every friend Of Mr.. Van
Buren,, from your state.
Mr. Vance then moved a provso that the
distribution Of the money should be made ac-
cording to the rates Of representation in this
house. This gave rise to a most animated
debate, and was finally rejected. Ayes, 72-l
Nays, I2l.
Mr.. Cambreleng then sent to the chair
what do you imaglne-an amendment, which in
effect breaks down the whole protective sys-
TEN at once, and at blow. It was suggest
ed by different members that the motion was
out Of order. Great confusion Prevailed,
The chair decided that the proposition was in
order. Mr.. Vance appealed.
