Correspondence Of the N. Y. Journal Of Commerce
WASHINGTON. Saturday Eve,
Sentember % 1897


The effort to procure any action, on the
part Of the House, upon the deposite bill, this
day, was abortive. The ardor Of the debate
has greatly increased, and. by a sort Of sym
pathy with the Senate, as well as from the
natural connexion existing between the DIFF
ferent measures brought forward, the sub
Treasury scheme has become the main topic
of discussion. The speech delived by Gen.
Thompson Of South Carolina yesterday,was
the strongest and most decided, in opposition
TO the measures proposed in the message,
that we have yet had in the House. ibis
gentleman is a nullfer and has, hitherto.
acted with MIR Calhoun but the separation
is now marked and wide. Mr. Calhoun will
find few supporters among bis former friends
perhaps none but Mr. Pickens. The posi-
ton OF Mr. Calhoun has become very uneasy.
The whitening speech Of Mr. King Of Geor-
gia, the cutting Ietorts of Mr. Rives, and the
bold denunciatons Of Gen Thompson, were
too much for man of his sensibility to stand
in one day
We want few more such speeches as
those OF Mr. Smith, of Indiana, and King, Of
Georgia and Tailmadge Of New York
men OF known and uniform republican prin.
ciples,--before we can let this desperate eff
fort Of the disorganizcrs pass from the no
tce Of the public.
The people have been too long hoodwink-
ed by the party in power. They have been
blinded bv the dust raised about "ihe bank "
They must be instructed by those in whom
they have been accustomed to place conn
dence 1t is gratifying to see these men
shaking eff the trammels of party. and, des
pising alike the frowns and batteries Of pow

J, consider Mr. Smith. Ct Indiana, as

The Report Of the Secretary Of the Treas
ury, which was laid before the present Con-
gress. has been published; and reminds us, in
its length, of the old fashioned Proclamations
of our Governors. 1t would nearly or quite
fill our sheet. II any other excuse were neces-

will therefore excuse us for not beginning to
set il up" Mr. Van Buren, has anticipated the
substance of il in his message; but some of the
points therein assumed are argued more al
length than they were by the President. The
following remarks upon il are from the New
York Journal of Commerce.
Rrponr ON THE F,SANcEs.-This docu
ment occupies over nine columns OF our pape

gard to the condition and prospect OF the pub

tions, for the consideration Of Congress will

they affect the government 1t proposes NJ
measure for the relief of the merchants, ex
cent an extension of the ware-housing system
and further extension of the payment OF dut
bonds, not exceeding six months from the tim
when they respectively fell due.
As to the currency, all that is proposed is
Inew EXPERIMENT, more hopeless than an
which has preceded II.
The Secretary invites the attention of Cor

A Farce has been lately enacted in WASH
ington in which COL Webb, proprietor of the
New York Courier and Enquirer, was the hero.
Our readers will remember that the opponents
of the United States Bank aedged that that
institution bribed Webb to support their claims
for new charter. The following account
Of the late affair growing out Of a renewal of
this charge by one Of the members of Congress,
is from the New York Journal of Commerce.
A detailed account of the affair, with the notes
which were passed on the occasion, appeared
in the National Intelligencer; in which Webb
cuts ridiculous figure enough.
ANOTHER HuMBuo.-Our neighbor Col.
Webb is making muss at Washington
One Of the Wing members accused the
Government of buying presses. Mr. Ghol-
sonsof Mississippi, said in reply, that the
Bank bought press for $4,000. This
coming to the ears Of Col Webb, he sent a
letter 10 Mr. Gholson, saying that the speech
reflected on his honor, was false, &c and
that he suspected Mr. G.. meant TO be person
al, and had seized an occasion when he
! (Mr Webb) had just LEFT the House, to abuse
! him. Mr. @. replied that he supposed, when
he spoke, that Webb was in the House =
and still thought it very likely that he was
that he should not hold himself accountabl,
to Webb, but il Webb would get gentle
men to take up the QUARREL, Mr. G. woult
be prepared 10 meet such substitute on any
terms Webb, after that, refused 10 receiv,
any communication on the subject short of |
challenge. If challenge were sent. h,
said he would be ready in two hours Tbi
is the substance of the matter, If we caugh
il right by hastily glancing over the accoun
! which the Col. himself published in tn
, National Inteligencer.
: The affair" caused good deal OF inqu
. ry Wednesday for bloody news thong
, there was queer cast upon the countenar
ces OF those who inquired, which indicate
/ something besides anxiety. One man sni
iaat be heard that Webb was winged. -
Q Another said. that was likely; for a marks
I man who could hit him, must shoot hyint
: We have no idea that man who wen,
y Washington three times, expressly to hgl
= Duff Green. but could not make it out wi
!, now be so imprudens as 10 head off a bull
d from the pistol of any body. As 10 II
+ present affair, he is evidently safe as nous
+ in a mill. He will take nothing but cha
+ lenge, and that from man who has alread
$ announced that he shoots no body but gent
: men.

The PRESIDENT AND CoNeREss.--Mr Van
Buren, is, we believe, the first President who
has found majority in Congress opposed to
him at the first session after his election. Ifhe,
does not find majority of the people opposed
to him at the next presidential election, we shall
be mistaken. Il is pretty generally believed
now, that Congress will do nothing at its pres
ent session for the relief Of the country. The
Loco Focos, who sustain the message, are not
strong enough Of themselves to carry the meas
ures recommended in that document; nor can
the Wings succeed in accomplishing their wish
es; while the Conservatives are not exactly
prepared at present to unite with either,-they
are for making another experiment of the State
Banks.
| The vote OF the House Of Representatives, in
the choice of printer, places the Administration
in an awkward predicament. II shows that n
majority Of the popular branch OF the National
Legislature are opposed to the system of meas
urcs which the President has developed with an
explicitness of which he has hitherto been
thought incapable on any subject, and which he
has recommended with an earnestness inconsist-
ent with the idea of his readily abandoning it..
Such vote in the British House of Commons,
showing so decided majority opposed to a
system Of measures recommended by the minis
tiers Of the crown, would be considered signal
for their mmediate resignation, and an entire
change of administration. What win De Che
consequences in the present case, il is difficult
TO predict. II is a novel situation for the Pres
ident, under our constitution, TO find himself
out-voted on his first appeal to the House Of
Representatives, on an important and leading
measure of policy. II is pretty evident that
the President, aided as he is by the advice and
influence of the tenant of the Hermitage, can.
not carry his measures in the House. Wheth
or there is any other party in the House, capa
Bile Of carrying through it any system of meas
ures, remains to be seen. 1t is perhaps doubt
full whether such will prove 10 be the fact. II
such case, little benfit is to be expected from
the labors OF the present session, beyond tina
of proving TO Mr. Van Buren,, that his theo
T rics will not receive the sanction Of the Repre-
: sentatives Of the people.
