Proceedings Ina Congress.-Ecrsonalities in
the House.
The Senate have al last passed the civil AID di-
pomatic appropriation bill. The session pro-
traced until after six o'clock this evening the ma
ory being determined TO carry 1t through to-day
The opposition of the minority has been captiouS
and unreasonable in many instances. Ihey nave
resisted appropriations of obvious necessity, ana
proposed amendments apparently Tor The mere pur-
pose Of delay This has been matter OF surprise,
for the democrats throughout the session, barring
AN occasional outbreak, have been models OF legis-
latire decorum and courtesy.
The debate in the House on the motion to print
the Custom House reports, was continued up 10 The
hour of adjournment, and Mr.. Gushing has the floor
in continuation tomorrow. There was some bit
terness of language between Messrs Wise and
Stanley, in the course of the debate, but approbr-
Gus epthets are very easily got over in these DAYS
of chvalry, aud no blood will be shed on the occa-
sion Members OF Congress can abuse each other
like iish-women, and no harm comes of it. Wise
and Stanley are both brave men, but there is q
queer code OF honor prevailing here. Ii il IA recent
discovery among gentlemen that direct atront can
be replied 10 in words but these are DAYS of inn
provement, and 1t may save bloodshed
Both houses are expected TO adjourn for the week
tomorrow.
