TIE FINANCE BILL.
The days work over the Finance bill was day
Of skirmishing. The Committee concluded its con-
alteration of the section taxing banks, without
further amendment. A long debate ensuod upon
the eighth section, which partially su'pends the
Sub. Treasury act. tho speeches being limited to five
minutes. /. was finally adopted in COMMITTEES,
without material alteration. Mr.. Hooper's amend
ment, in the nature Of a substitute for the whole
BILL preceded by an hours speech from It's anthor,
was then offered to the House. 1t received but %
votes. and 70 voted against il. Mr.. Stevenss sub.
sti,uie was then offered, with ten minutes Of explain.
alton and argument in its behalf by Mr. Stevens,
and rejected by vote Of 6S Nays to 10 Yeas Dis
cord was then let looso by resolution Of Mr.. Love.
10y taxing all bank circulation per cent pes annum.
Two hours Of discussion, 10 ive-minute speeches,
ended 10 rejection Of the proposition. 1t received
but 10 votes Mr.. Stevens then proposed new
substitute for the whole bill-a scheme which was
brought last "Wednesday into the Ways and Means
Committee room by Jay Cooke, and there argued by
him ia a speech ~ hour long, but which was re-
iscted. Pending this motion Of Mr.. Stevens, the
Committee Of the Whole rose, and ordered the Ways
and Means bill, with the amendments agreed TO, to
be printed together with Jay Cookies substitute.
The House then adjourned TO Monday. A final vote
will probably be taken on that day.
Jay Cookies scheme was 10 borrow $500 ,OOO, 600.
Its distinctive feature was 10 issue Treasury notes
bearing interest at 3.65, and to make them legal
tender. The Committees objection to it was that
circulation should no, bear interest," that it would
cease to DO circulation the moment men would have
an object TO hoard H. All the essential amendments
70 the Ways and Means bill, which Secretary Chase
desired, have now been Incorporated in it. lie and
the majority OF the Committee are in perfect accord
GEN. BUTLER TO RESUME HIS COMMAND.
may be positiyely stated that Gen. Butler will
resume command of tho Department Of the Gulf.
His headquarters will at first be at New-Orleans,
and soon at q higher point on the Mississippi. This
determination in regard to him was arrived at
Immediately after bis departure from Washington
for tho North. IL was the inevitable result Of his
conferences with the President and heads Of De-
partments.
No ono here could tell Gen. Butler why he was
recalled. He declared he would cheerfully carry
on, the plan formed for him by the Government il
tho means were given him. One Of the means being
an army tuch as that which Banks commands al
New-Orsaus, or that which Sherman or McClenard
commanded above.
To organize au African army without the assist
ance and cooperation Of white army lie declared to
be out Of the question, aud the alternative was soon
presented Of leaving Gen. Butler to spend the
Winter and Spring at home at Lowell with lis boy,
or to sending him to take the place Of Gen. Banks
or that of Gen. MoCernsud. He will, on bis return,
have the troops for which lie asked in vain, and more
than once, months before he was superseded, will
have new responsibilities aud a broader fold Of
duty. To him quite us much AS to Gen. McClernand
and Gen. Grant the West may look to open and
keep open the Mississippi.
