On motion of Mr.. PUGH, resolution was adopted
requesting the Secretary of the Treasury 10 inform the

eminent according b. such estimates as he may DO able
to make if oneffth Of the duties such imported art
ces authorized by the Tariff act Of July, 1916. should
be RENTED. What if One-iouIth should DO RENTED,
and what if one-thrd shOuld be remitted
The Senate resumed the consideration OF the House
bill providing for the settlement Of the claims OF oces
OF the Revolutionary army.
Mr.. FOSTER earnestly supported the measure.
placing in strong light the services and sufierings OF
those who pered their lives in the struggle arguing
that in consequence of the depreciation Of the value Of
the certificates in which they were paid, they were
Justly entitled TO the consideration Of Congsess.
Mr.. PUGH offered an amendment, striking out the
first and second sections, and inserting, There shall
" be paid 10 each Of the surviving soldiers embraced
by the resoution of Congress Of the 22d March, ISj,
the difference between the amounts specified In tn.
certificates issued TO him under the terms OF the ssd
resolution and the value of the said certificates n
money at the time they were issued and received.
Adotted by vote Of % against q.
Mr.. TOOMBS inquired Of Mr. Fish whether the
latter was not interested in the bill, and thereby dis
qualified from voting upon 1t D.!
Mr. FISH replied that he sent here by the State
Of New-YOrk, and had right under the Constitution
to vote her representative any oil before Con-
eIess. He would state TO the Senator from Georgia,
however that Dssnuch "a be raised the question, he
uouA be- entitled to receive something under this bill
if it should pass but that in case should cent OF
the money which he would receive go into hi. own
pocket lie would divest himself Of all interest in tho
matter and give whatever sum might come TO him TO
the representatives Of the New-YOIk line who served
in the Revolutionary war, and for whom no provision
hes been msde
MI CASS said that when first the bill was introduced
he favored IT, but the ihl esg cation which il had under
gore al satisfied him that il wa improper. He should
therefore vote against the whole of it, unless justice bs
reLdefod to sOldiers as well a. officers.
There was debate upon ether amendments, bu,
without taking the question the bill the Senate adj
iouTned.

BROADWAY TmATRE-yAs AMBuRGHs TRouPE-The
Broadway theatre returned TO first principles last night
and secured goodly crowd TO Assist IL in doing In
other words the horses and the RIDERS and the cario
and the gynasts and the Ions and tigers and the big
elephant appeared in lieu Of the legitimate drama If WI
may judge by the attendance this change has been highly
paatable to tie public. The troupe Of Messrs Van Am

gerie as well gymnastc and tight rope performers,
each star In his particular line Some Of the names
well known both here and abroad-those OF Mr. Van
Amburgh Mr.. Eaton Stone and Mr.. Nixon particularly
well. Our American riders are more daring, more bold
and graceful than those Of London Paris Both
Mr. Sone who rides without saddle, and Mr.. " W. Perry,
who drives four horse act In tho most reckless and
break neck way, would be stars al the Hippodome,

The arena quite perfect in way. The entire stage
has been removed and constructed several feet
below the level Of the footghts. Upon this IL erected

toward the audience thus giving idea OF the ancient
ampti;hcatrcs The view from the front Of the house h
entirely unobstructcd and equally good 10 every part
from the parquee TO the gallery The side scenes are
replaced by enclosure whchlruns around the arena,
