CoscREss-fn Senate yesterday the bill ap-
propriating $4,000 for an Equestrian Statue Of
Washington, was passed-as it had passed in
the Honse-Unenimously. The session Was
mostly occupied by discussion upon the resO-

doctrine and Cuba Mr.. Cass made very long
speech, an abstract of which, and Of Mr.. Hale's
reply, win be found in the proper columns.
In the House bill was reported establishing
a Branch Mint in New-York, which, from the
report Of the proceedings, seems to have been
the victim Of Congressional hocus pocus and tie

Mr.. Brewer of Cambridge yesterday sub

diency. This order came up to-day for action,
and was modified by it, more judiciOus friends

question and simply direct al inquiry into die

Having thus been licked into its mildest and

RANKING IN WASHINGTON

A very preposterous bin in regard TO the
issue and circulation Of small bills below the
denomination of five dollars, has been reported
TO Congress by Mr. Fiekln, from the Commit
tee on the Distric, of Columbia. The bin pro-
poses TO make the issue Of such bills felony,
and undertakes TO prevent their being passed
BY anybcdy--penalties being imposed upon
every person in the Distric, doing business
under license who shall receive or utter them.
II is very extraordinary, in the first place,
that anybody should desire to suppress the cir
culation Of small notes particularly, Small
bills are just ~ coed As large, and vastly more
convenient for the general purposes of trade
and travel Aprejudice against them simply
because they are small is sbsurd A msn may

second place, it is idle to undertake to suppress
small bills in any one State or district. when all
around are States whose Institutions issue

been tried over and over again, but il has always
failed, and it ia just a. sure to fail in the District
Of Columbia as il has failed elsewhere. And
Congress is utterly blind to the experience Of
the past, and insensible TO the suggestions Of

more Of their plssters nor Bank failures in the

The banking laws Of the several States. so far
as we are aware are very defective in this re-
spect Nowhere is any provision made that the
circulation shall bear a fixed proportion to

no practical limit whatsoever. For proportion
