WAsnIsoTos, Sept Ii, 1887.
The deep and agitating question of United States
Bank, was today brought up before the House OF Re
representatives. by Mr.. Bell Of Tennessee. This gen.
teman openly avowed HE preference for the establish
lnent Of such institution, before the adoption any
other that could be brought before the House and
the only measure that would De able 70 afford relief TO
the country in her present distracted condition.
This honest but somewhat untlmey acknowledge
Iaent o. Mr.. Bells, created an immediate excitement
among those OF his own party muci 10 the JOY ofhe
administration. The delight expressed by Mr.. Cam
breeng he mounted the floor, was so strongly
marked upon his countenance, that no man coald mis-
take il. In his oudest tone of voice Mr. g. reolned,
that he truly oyeUoycd at the frank acknow-
gauntlet had beel thrown by the opposition and he
was now ready in behalf of himself and his friends,
to take up; and IN return for the sentiment so bold
ly spoken the one hand, he, Mr.. Z. would also be
explicit in avowng the sentiments that should guide
his course throughout the session. II was glory for
him in knowing that the sentiments Of the Executive,
in his recent Message, were the sentiments OF nearly
the whole nation. They are my sentiments, contin-
ned MIR. c. and hesitate not to affirm that they will
be kept in full view by the Committee on Ways and
Means, who will doubtless report unanimous IN favor
of their adoption. The question, thanks to the MEN,
Der from Tennessee is again to come before the peo-
pie in the character of bank or no bank. They have
twice spoken against such institution. They Will
again do II for the third time.
Mr. Bell was perplexed at the stand he had assum-
cd The impolicy of his step was now apparent.
Throughout the House the opposite party were laugh
ing in their sleeves, Wise OF Virginia, whose NORTH
cation was now excessive, could no longer restrain
himself. He flew at little Cam" with the ferocity
Of a savage He denounced him as the plant tool of
faction the base and serve sycophan, of the kitchen
cabnet. Wehaye no plan TO propose, said Mr. Wise,
we await the action OF the Committee on Ways and
Means. Let them bring forth their proect-ull we
see of what complexion II is made OF do not say
thar | will agree TO it. If should not my reason
will be given on I is floor for SO dong. Again say,
we have no plan to propose-we are not prepared TO
bring forward the qaeson of United States Bank.
The Executive in his revolutionary Message, has pro-
posed the adoption OF schemes which in heart he
ssevcs intended should be passed upon HIS own
tools will not d1rc support him in this stand He IN
tends substantial relief 10 the country The peo-
pie have led for bread and VIVA; does he give them
"a stone. MIR. Wise concluded by calling upon Cam
breleng who Is appointed as chairman OF the Com
mttee on Ways and Means to bring, with all possible
despatch, his plan of reform before the House.
Mr.. Bell smartng under the rebuke OF Cambre-
leng arose and called upon the Organ" pointing
10 G. TO tell what scheme had been In contemplation
between him aud his master, that was TO be thrust
slolentibtts r0ientibuS upon this House. want to
knew whehert is theinteniion ofthe party opposed to
me TO do nothing and then throw the blame oil II up
on US who stand as the minority on this floor. a
gree with my Trend not TO propose but 10 let you, the
administration, do that part Of the business. BY this
means the country will be enabled to Judge whether
your motives any thing more than put on.
Cushing Of Massachusetts followed with much Sc
verify imputed the entire fault OF the pane 10 the oc
ton of the government departments inasmuch as
they had thrown every obstacle in the way that was
possible for them do, and at the same time Keeping
out OF the peoples sight.
Boon OF Indiana, thought that the opposition were
bad hunters They were firing their twcntycIght
pound shots at ground squirrels lie thought their
ammun ton should be preserved for some future occa-
con, when II could be more benefcially used.
At this stage of proceeding conservative member
presented resolution 10 the effect that oil other bus
should be laid aside for the general session. con-
tanned in the Message, save that which required I'M
mediate action. This resolution drew forth some
fiery debate-several members from both parties
thought u advisable that the special session should be
continued on until the usual time for commencing the
General Scsson-that committees should proceed
with the execution of all business that might come
before them. Alter much sparring this resolution
was laid upon the table until Wednesday Of this
week.
On motion Of Mr. Cambreleng the House resolved
itself into committee of the whole the state Of
the Union, by calling 10 the chair Mr. Adams of Mas
sachHsc,is. Here MIR. Cambreleng exhibited his
perior political tact in moving that so much OF the
sage az relates the finances Of the country be re-
ferred TO the committee of which he Mr.. c. Is chair
man. Tins piece OF holiness completely contour
ded the opposition. They the object OF its mover,
bat whilst they were suspended between doubt and
surprise, the question was put and the resolution
RED ner..
The parry feeling in the House today is stronger
than have ever known IL TO be. Between the two
factions the bitter opposition cxHts. The line
has been drawn by the wings and the country will be
able TO see VINO is that toes the mark. The deter
mination of ,Ae opposition not 10 propose any plan
will leave the party in power no excuse IN bringing
forward their views 20 the fullest extent. The
excuse "thst plan Is the better OF the two will

that the oppos predsposcd to the charerlng

that preference under the existing circumstances and
condition OF the country. What relief can be grantedl

already prepared TO Say anew to the PRAYER OF Mr.:
Van Buren, aud the tools Of party IN the House, will

committee.
