HNUsE.-Mr. Howard called attention
to the fact that the bill providing for the
deficiency in the appropriation for the
printing now before the Committee of the
Whole on the state of the Union had not
been, discussed, but the debate devoted to
general subjects. He offered resolutions
for extending debate on the bill till to-
morrow, and confding speeches strictly to
the subject.
Mr.. Jno. Cocbrane objected, for the
Simple reason that it was now too late to
insist on sue!l q course, the Committee of
Whole on the state of the Union having
Yesterday distinctly refused to enforce the
RUE. Further proceedings on this sub
iect were terminated by the House going
into Committee of the Whole on the prin--
ting deficiency bdl.
Mr.. Burnett said that the public print
ing had been charged as a souree of COR
ruptiou through which the Treasury had
been robbed also, that gents who held
the Office of public printers, had realized
p~rincrly fortunes, and that extensive
corr hinations are formed through which
the printing is controlled. He di1 pot

far they we're true. 1t had been advanced

enormously for a few years past. For the

other citations of extravaganza, he said
that $40 was spent for pictures of
woodcocks, squirrels, mice and other ami
mails, 10 be worthlessly put into the Pat

this draft on the Treasury, by paying for
all works completed, and dispensing with
that not yet performed. He moved TO
ameud the bill by reducing the proposed
appropriation Of $3.50, 600 to 1920 600.
Mr.. Letcber showed that the amount
