MIR. MoRRILL'S bill 10 regulate the
sale OF gold by the Secretary OF the
Treasury, which has passed the House,
requires that public notice, OF at least
six days, shall be given of any sale OF
gold, in which notice the amount offer
ed and the terms OF payment shall be
stated, and proposals for any portion
Invited. No proposal will be received
unless accompanied by certificate OF
deposit in the Treasury OF five per
centum OF the amount bid for. The
Assistant Treasurer at New York. who
is TO receive the proposals, is author
ised, with the approval of the Secretary,
to reject proposals. and 1t is provided
that the highest bid only shall be ac-
cePted. No distinction is made between
currency and legal tender notes as pay
ment for the gold.
Ii appears that some seventy or
eighty million OF dollars in compound
interest notes fall due the present year,
and that, under tine present arrange
ments, the Secretary will redeem the
same. Two or three of the Ways and
Means committee are in favor of some
legislation that will keep them or their
equivalent in circulation, being oppos-
ed 10 contraction. In this connection,
too, it is stated on the authority of
Washington correspondents that Mr..
Wilson, OfIowa, "a member OF the Ways
and Means committee, intends to offer
in the House, as soon as he can obtain
the door, a resolution for the issue OF
$4,000, 900 in notes, at a rate of interest
OF per cent, to take the place OF the
compound interest notes. The resolu-
ton has been before the Ways and
Means committee during its recent sit
Iings, but the members were unable to
agree to it.

A BILL to re-enact the entire registra-
ton law WINS reported yesterday in the
House OF Delegates from the judiciary
Committee. 1t has been very apparent
ever since the first registration under
the law of last winter, that that law
was exceedingly defective. The bill
presented yesterday has. we under
stand, been carefully prepared, aud as
well as we could judge from only hear
ing it read, 1t has been ably drawn.
Our impression, however, is that some
of Its provisions are too stringent to be
practical. But OF this we can better
judge, and speak, after an examination
OF the bill, which we hope to lay before
our readers in extenso to- morrow. The
authorship OF the bill is attributed to
Mr.. Ferguson, OF Cabell. II Is consid-
cred by the members OF the House, as
fur as we have heard any expression, u
very strong and thorough measure,
which will riGidly enforce the Constitu-
tional Amendment, and allow no dodg-
ing. In the language OF our old friend
Bee. OF Doddridge, sit is u clencher!"
The question of locating the State
Capital was up again yesterday In the
Senate; and that body decided to post
Pone further consideration OF the sub
ject until the 9TH OF next month. The
House bill on this subject is made the
order for tomorrow, on its second
reading, when we shall see what the
temper of the House is respecting it,
The question is approached very eau
tiOusly in both Houses. The friends OF
Charleston, it is understood held "A
meeting last night at the Senate Cham
Der. We understand that Charleston
will offer to donate sixteen acres oil
ground. We infer from Mr.. Spencer's
withdrawal yesterday from the tiles oil
the House OF the papers relating to the
proposition made by Purkersburg last
season, that the friends of thaiapOint ART
preparing to renew her offer or make q
different one.
Meanwhile the friends of other points

burg are not idle. Still we believe
there is doubt in the minds of very
many OF the members about the neces
sity or prOpriety OF absolutely fixing
Nhs luChtlOu 1T All ut the present session
1t is apparent thet no appropriation
can now be- made to begin the work
now, or within a year; so that noactua
progress will be made by determining
on a site so long in advance of build
ing. The Legislature, we believe, does
not feel much inclined to tie itself uE
for all time, and find n year or two
hence. when IL practical change of CAPT.
tai comes to be made, that they acted
upon insufficient information or upor
baseless theories, and made seriou.
mistake. II each county could have
the capital located within its limits
thore would be no trouble bout agree
ing ON a site, but just because each ont
cannot have it, and because but one
out of all the candidates can have it al
least, we incline to think when it come.
10 the tiual test, the Legislature will still
! be unable to satisfy their judgment,
that it ought yet to be removed.
