CoNGREssIoNAL.-In the House on Tues
day, Mr.. Conklin, from the Committee on
Ways and Means, reported bill declaring
money on time not exempt from taxation,
and explained that it was intended to pre-
vent depositors in the banks from holding
large sums Of United States notes exempt
from taxes; the law exempting United
States securities from taxation being not in-
tended to apply to government paper used
as money. Mr.. Stevens, after reading the
law e1empting United States notes and other
securities from taIation, expressed the opin-
ion that Congress had no right to pass the
bill that he could not see the distinction
presented BY Mr.. COnkling, but he could
sea how easy it would be, if one obligation
was violated, to violate ottere. After fur
ther debate, the bill was recommitted.
In the Senate Wednesday, the bill to pun
ish forgery of United States bonds OF other
securities by imprisonment for ten years was
passed.
In the House the bill to secure the speedy
construction of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road and Telegraph line, was recommit.ed
and ordered to be printed.
A bill to equalize the bounties OF soldiers
and sailors who served during the rebellion,
was introduced.
The Committee on Agriculture reported
back the resolution to encourage education
IN Agriculture, with the recommendation
that 1t be Indefinitely postponed.
A resolution was adopted instructing the
Committee on Military Affairs to inquire in
to the propriety of making appropriations
to complete the work of disinterring and
gathering into the national cemeteries, the
soldiers who gave their lives for the saliva
tiOn of the Union. with power to send for
persons and papers.

there awaiting the train of box cars which
is to jolt them through to Washington on
their way to the war. A knot Of officers
and soldiers is sitting en- the platform. kick

hours more there must be of waiting before
there is any moving. a large mule stands

made out to put that useful appendsge into

contriye how to withdraw it, The flies bite;

interest and merriment, which stills for
moment as Perley Downer, the witty Drum
Major of the regiment, announces solemnly
that he has new conundrum; only to burst
into roars of laughter, where the laugh
comes in.''
QuOth Perley, "Why Is this apimile ab-

letting his angry passions rise at q mere
