cial's money article contains the fol-
lowing: The market sympathises
slightly with the movement in the gold
market; the sub-treasury on Saturday
and yesterday sold about five millions
of gold at 81 37A, which temporarily
takes nearly seven millions of currency
into the sub-treasury and so far dimtn-
ishes the supply of money for loans.
All the demands of the street however
were met at Der cent. The CHIEF pur-
chaseTs of tho gold were the foreign
bankers, who had sold freely during
the late decline, and have replenished
their stock ut lower rates. There IS q
disposition among the foreign houses

cessity to ship specie, and for this rea-
son materially relieve the market. The

earnings has not established any real

Il is still thought probable that there

more strongly speculative. Govern

very irregular. The market for foreign

seREss1oNAI PROCEEDINGS
WASHINGTON. Feb. 20, 1866.
SENATE.

Mr.. Wade offered n resolution to
amend the Constitution by rendering
the President ofthe United States ineli-
gible to a second election.
Mr.. Wilson offered a resolution which
was adopted, instructing the Commit
tee on reconstruction to inquire how
far the lately rebellious States hadcon-
formed to the requirements OF the Pres
ident's reconstruction policy.
Mr.. Lane, of Ind, presented the petit
ton of Assistant Assessors! asking
for an increased compensation, which
was referred to the Committee on FL
nance.
At one O'Clock the Chair announced
that the morning hour having expired,
the unfinished business of yesterday,
which was the bill returned by the
President with his exception to it, was
before the Senate.
Mr.. Davis took the floor and read a
long argument in, opposition to the bill.
The Senate failed to repass the Freed-
mems Bureau bill over the veto, not
having the required two-thirds vote
The vote was so against Is:
Petitions from citizens OF Wisconsin,
Missouri and Massachusetts, were pre-
sented, asking Congress to annul acts
passed in establishing civil govern
ments in the South, and to secure equal
rights to all without distinction of color.
Referred to a committee of fifteen.
HOUSE.
Mr., Stevens, from the Joint Commit
tee on Reconstruction, reported joint
resolution that, in order to close agita-
ton on n question which seems likely
to disturb the actions of the Govern
ment, as well as to quiet the uncertain
ty which exists in the minds OF the
people of the eleven States which have
been declared to be in instruction, no
Senators or Representatives shall be
admitted into Congress from either of
the said States until Congress shall have
declared such States entitled to repre-
seutation. --H E-. 40
Mr.. Order obtained leave TO have
read minority report, concluding with
resolution declaring that the State OF
Tennessee is entitled to representation,
and that her Representatives be hereby
admitted to seats in Congress on quail
flying themselves according to law.
Mr.. Stevens said there was an earnest
disposition until yesterday to inquire
and to see whether they could admit
that State to representation, but since
yesterday there has been such a state
of things as to induce the committee to
consider it wholly out of their power to
proceed further without surrendering
great principle and without surrender
ing the rights of this body to the usur-
patton of another power. He demand
ed the previous question.
Mr.. Rogers, of New Jersey, amid calls
of order, declared against the passage
of this resolution under the gag rule
Mr.. Stevens objected to Mr.. Order
making the report. He said he could
not consent, for there was an earthquake
around us, and he trembled and dare
not yield. There was much excitement
and calls of order during the proceed
