Conversational.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-Senate.-A bill
was introduced transferring the control OF
the Indians to the Freedmen's Bureau.
The vote rejecting the bill relieving from
tax the exporters Of distilled rum was re-
considered and the bill passed.
Pacific railroad matters were discussed
until adjournment. 80 -. ,s--2s
House.-The bill providing for the safety
of passengers carried on steam vessels, and
regulating the system, was passed without
division. "
The Conference Committees report on
the bill for relieving parties from political
disabilities was rejected-7S to 55; not q
two-thirds majority. The Democrats, on
account of the erasure Of the names Of two
Democrats from the list to be relieved, voted
with the Republicans, who oppose pardon
in any shape.
The result of the vote produces much
dissatisfaction among the Republicans
Some of them claimed that without the
passage of this bill congressional recon.
struction would be failure, and UNTOLD
evil would result.
Mr.. Broomall, who had changed his vote
for the purpose, moved o reconsideration o.
the vote; and the motion prevailing, thu
question comes up again next Monday.
The Senates amendment to the bill CON
tinuing the Freedmen's Bureau was. con
Cured in, and the bill now goes to the Pre-
sident.

troversy which has been progressing for a
week or two, in which shumaker received
several blows. Rainey closed in on shu-

TIE RESIGNATION OF MR.. ROLLINS.
I It is argued by eminent lawyers that the

once upon the acceptance thereof by the
President, and that the condition attached
to the resignation, nameiy-to take effect
when q successor is nominated and con-
frmed-is null and void, as it is not in the
power Of an officer to make his resignation
depend upon such condition or terms.

In your police report of the complaint of
Mrs. Pollard of an assault and battery in
Brooklyn you admit this remarkable state
ment: {" Mrs. Pollard informed the magls-
trate that she had been married Ito her
husband about three years, but soon
after discovered that he had another wife !
upon which she left him" a similar re-
port has also appeared in every newspaper
in this city and in Brooklyn. Now, II TINS
statement was made, it was made after I
had Withdrawn from the COURTROOM On the
assurance that the proceeding for that DAY
was ended. 1t was made out OF my pre-
sence and out Of my hearing. 1t was made
without the obligation Of any oath, or with
out the addition of any circumstance to ems
title tito belief. This morning protested
to the Judge that statement; should nave
been entertained when had no opportunity
to contradict or to challenge it; and ! then
took occasion to denounce it as totally,
daringly, atrocious1y, libel ously false. 1t
is my discrimination to Try the ques-
ton in q court of law, at least with
reference to those newspapers which
do not. ALLOW me the benefit OF this pro-
test, whether the publication ofsa naked
assertion. made in the circumstances refer-
red to. does not fall within the definition OF
libel J: else it does appear that no mans
reputation is safe-that he may be accused
in newspapers Of any crime. IN tne aecaT
