The House consumed the morning session
to-day in debate " on the bill authorizing
TWINS 70 raise mlney to aid drafted soldier
by paying their bounties. The bill provides
that this may be done both with reference to
the past and future. It provides for refund
ing private subscriptions where towns choose
to do 80. Mr. Shaw of Burlington was pro-
uinent in opposing the bill 80 far as relates
u the future lie believed that it would
tend 10 prevent volunteering If 1t was known
thas those who should wait and he drafted
might receive bOunties. The bill finally
passed without any amendment and by an
almost unanimous vote. No movement has
been made with reference u the military
question to-day. The Senate released thei.
Military Committee from the further consi-
deratiOn Of the subject yesterday.

the regiment 10 Florida, in one OF which Col.
Billings received three halls in his person

rightly severe on the disgraceful treatment
Of the blacks by many Of our officers and sol

great change for the better. The movement
for the employment Of the blacks he con
sidered one of the most important of the war, ,
and in fact essential 20 final success. The
lecture wac received with close attention,
and occasional applause, and resulted in an
addition of $40 TO the funds Of the Relief
Association. for whose benefit it was given.

UNIFORM currency both to the Government
and % the people. --

Uniform currency both to the Government
and to the people. .rr
Mr.. Hooper, abiding to the former action
ol Congress, said the currency provided was
recognized IN every State. Il had satisfied
every purpose for which currency was needed
The people asked for more OF It, because the
actual result OF its use had shown that more
was required for the purpose ol trade. and
because lurther issue was necessary aud
would be beneficial to the public service
The tax bill was in successful operation, and
it was believed that the revenue derived
from i. and from the tariff on imports would
much exceed the estimate then made Of
$l50OO0.000 without operating oppressive
ly on the Industrial interests OF the country.
One more measure was required 10 perfect the
system. namely. a national bankrupt law,
which would establish uniform aud secure
system OF banking through the country.
Mr.. Hooper said the subst tute he bad
offered for the bill reported hom the com
mittee of Ways and Means, would afford
the means to pay all the demands Of the
public service, and at the same time provide
for capitalists, bankers and the people, the
means to prevent any depreciation Of the
currency growing out Of the redundancy OF
the notes issued by the Treasury Depart"
ment.
Mr.. Horton argued that there was no 9th
er mode by which money could be raised ex-
cepting public credit. He said in order to
fund large amount of debt it was inevita~
Bile the currency should be inflated, but the
bill was calculated to prevent evil results
-, IL Il - xxyorly
able as possible, but would consider any
suggestion in the way of improvement, lie
opposed the proposition OF Mr.. Stevens to
pay interest in paper.
Mr.. Watts, delegate from New Mexico,
opposed two classes Of currency. lie would
pay all debts with legal tenders.
Without concluding the question, the
House adjourned.
