CONGRESSIONAL.

In the Senate, on Saturday, the bill to
admit Colorado into the Union came up,
and provision was made to admit the
State, if, before coming into existence as
State, it shall ratify the fourteenth
amendment. While the matter was under
discussion, the Senate went into pro-
tracted executive session, and adjourned.
In the House large number of private
bills we're passed.
Brooks introduced bill to amend the
act of March 81, 1868, to exempt certain
manufactures from the internal revenue
tax, which was referred to the Committee
on Ways and Means.
Banks gave notice that he would ask
the House on next Tuesday to consider
the bill appropriating money for the
purchase of Alaska.
Spaulding gave notice that he would
ask for immediate action en- the river
and harbor appropriation bill, in order
that it might be disposed Of.
On the motion of Washburn, of Hi
nois, the Senate's amendments to the
legislative appropriation bill were re-
ferred to the Committee on Appropria-
tons.
Washburn also gave notice that he
would early next week report the de-
ficiency bill, and ask leave to make it
the special order for Wednesday next.
Poland gave notice that he would on
Monday ask for action on the Missouri
contested election case Of Switzler
against Anderson.
The House then proceeded to the con-
sideration Of the River and Harbor APP
preparation bill, the question being on
the motion Of Delano to recommit the
bill to the Committee on Commerce,
with instructions to report back bill
making the necessary appropriations.
1t appropriates sl,3OO,O0O for the i'm
provement of rivers. The House, how
ever, without action on the bill, adjourned.
