90 to II. Mr.. Bright called IT up after fail
under standing with Dir. Hunter and the Derso.
cratic side. Only two Republicans voted for the
resoution--Messr Hale and Clark-very much
TO the dissatisfaction Of their political friends.
ipasmuch as the Democrats were determined to
carry the resolution without aid, If necessary.
Consequently this assistance was entirely sratait-
ous and reflected no credit on either of the SEN
ators who thus separated from the Republican
side TO accommodate their opponents. Others
were absent who had better have been 10 their
places. The real design of this movement which
has been contemplated for fortnight past, though
disclaimcd, has been to Kill of the admission OF
Kansas. the Tariff, the Pacific Railroad aud ethor
measures of importance in order to disembarrass
the Baltimore Convention in regard to these
issues.
Mr.. Hunter and the master spirits OK the Senate
have never intended to do anything but pass the
appropriation bills, and renew Treasury notes, If
practicable.
THE TARIFF.
Mr.. Bigler made feeble attempt to relieve his
Democratic friends from responsibility concerning
the tariff. when arraigned by Mr.. Cameron for this
detection; but his apology was worse than the Of
tense. He he's been promising for several weeks
10 obtain votes for the Morrill, bill from the South,
not one of which can now be procured His last
dodge is TO revive The tariff Of 49, TO amend thu
present Law with direct bribe to the coal and
iron interests, knowing perfectly well that neither
can pass. The design is TO cheat Pennsylvania
again with false professions.
THE ADMISSION OF KANSAS.
Mr. Wade made an attempt 10 take up the bill
foY the admission Of Kansas upon the strength OF
assurances Obtsined from Democrats yesterday
that they would permit a vote. But they voted
down the motion by five majority, only two Demo-
Gratis voting for Kansas, and - against. Every
Republica voted for it.
MR.. COX's DENIAL.
Mr.. Cox's pretended denial Of mr. dispatch, con-
corning Mr.. Wilson's testimony ar his OWE before
the Coyode Committee, sub tautialy admits all
that was stated and which he knows to be true.
The evidence will soon indicate itself. There may
be other proof furnished which he viii be called
upon to explain. Perhaps be can tel whether
paper was drawn mp and signed by three persons
in Columbus to transfer the support of Tie Ohio
statesman
upon condition that the paper should receive an
interest of sc, eco in the printing of the Post Office
blanks. Also, whether an agent was sent from
here to Columbus, pending the English bill, for
advice as to his course, after having denounced it
as worse than LecomptOD. and why he changed
front SO suddenly.
a number of the witnesses called by Mr. Wins
low on the allegation of money being used in Mr..
ScIantou's District have arrived. When they have
rested, the charge will be found entirely unfouuded,
and react to Mr.. Scranton's advantage. There is
reason TO believe that some of these parties solicit
ted to be summoned merely for the purpose Of
visiting Washington at Government expense, and

with extrar cons matter, had the interest alleged

Geated before. Several Senators changed position
suddenly on this subject.
THE HOUSE SESSION.
The House sat nearly twenty-six consecutive
hours, owing to the factious course Of members.
IL has been the practice here for years that
when the House goes into Committee tho rule re-
quning a quorum shall be ignored, in order to
allow members to get of Speeches which might
otherwise rctard the business. The usage has pre-
vailed this session. as heretofore, and frequently
half dozen members have not been present. When
