CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON, February Is.
H0USE.

Several petitions were presented and
referred, when the House resumed the
consideration of the Kentucky election
case.
Mr.. Smith spoke in favor of his claim
to the seat.
Mr.. Trumbull, on behalf of Mr..
Brown, said he hurled back as unmanly
and false all insinuations against the
honor or loyalty Of that gentleman.
Mr.. Washburne, of Illinois, desiring
to put a stop to the debate, moved the
previous question.
Mr.. Coburn offered as substitute
for the pending resolutions, one de-
claring Samuel L. Smith, having re-
ceived majority of the votes cast in
conformity to the law, is entitled to a
seat in the House, and seconded the
previous question.
After remarks by Messrs. Coburn,
Blaine, Poland and Dawes, the question
was taken and Mr.. Coburn's substitute
rejected.
Resolutions from the committee on
Elections declaring Mr.. Smith not emit
tied, and directing the Governor OF
Kentucky to be notified of the vacancy,
were adopted.
The Speaker presented the CORES.
pondence between Generals Grant and
Hancock. Referred to the committee
on Reconstruction.
The House went into committee OF
the Whole on the state of the Union,
Mr.. Walker in the chair, on the Consular
and Diplomatic Appropriation Bill. 1t
appropriates 81 ,265, 934.
After some debate, Mr.. Washburne
said that when the bill was prepared
the committee had no information as to
the appointment of Minister to Greece
and, therefore. no item for that mission
had been inserted; but the gentleman
from Massachusetts,, Mr.. Butler, had
been instructed by the committee to
move an amendment to that effect.
Mr.. Butler moved to insert the word
Greece.
Without disposing of the question the
committee rose and the House ad
journed.

General sherman,

NEW YORK, February l5.-The Trib-
une's Washington dispatches state that
Lieutenant General Sherman has tele-
graphed to one or two of his friends in
Washington and other places, that he
does not wish to come here, aud that he
does believe the President can legally
create new Military Director. He is
so determined on this point that he pre-
fers the alternative of resignation, and
will so act if ordered to accept the post.
Lieutenant General Sherman has tele-
graphed to his brother to have the mil
iltary committee refuse to sanction the
appointment, and the Senator will pre-
sent bill denying the authority of tho
President to make the proposed change.
This action on the part of General SHEER
man creates great deal of talk.

Political corruption has already brought the

Taxation already strips the clothes from the
backs of many people, and robs their children of
bread. Additional extravaganza threatens to
reduce the richest to poverty, and all the labor

In addition TO gigantic national frauds, the
taxpayers Of West Virginia are suffering from
domestic knaves and homemade scoundrels
