WAsHINGToN,June u, lsGS.-The
House today, after an exceedingly
animated contest of three hours,
adopted the following important res
olutiou:
RCsolccd. That in the Judgment
of this House it will inilict serious
loss upon the National revenues to
delay action upon the taxes on dis /
titled spirits and tobacco until the .
same can be accomplished by a gen /
cral revision of the entire Internal .
Revenue system, and the Committee
of Ways and Means is hereby in
structed to report, without delay, a
separate bill revising the taxes on
the manufacture and sale Of dis
tiled spirits and tobacco"
The resolution was the result of a
consultation and concert of action
between MeSSrs. Washburnc of Ill
noiS, ThaddcuS Stevens. Gen. Butler,
Mr.. Dawes, Mr.. Blaine of Maine,
Gov. Blair of Michigan, and others
who believed that it was highly
eXpedicnt to act at once on the
whiskcy and tobacco taxes, and IN
some way put stop TO the enormous
frauds which the "ringS Of thieves
are committing on the revenue
The resolution was placed III the
hands of Gen. ShankS of Indiana
/ because his State was the first called
upon for resolutions during the
morning hour. Its Introduction was
the signal for an excitement quite
unprecedented On a measure OF the
kind. General Schcnck, Chairman
Of Ways and Means, was furious,

the measure, but was prevented by
the stern operation of the previous
question.
Mr.. Maynard, Of the Ways and

decisivcly defeated. Then II motion

ABYSsINIA.-Gen. Napier appears
TO have done his business very well
in the Abyssinian campaign-all ex-
cept the conclusion of it. His adj ;
dress to the soldiers of the Army of

pOus for the occasional style which
was never the style of the old Eng
liSh school of commanders. The ac-
ton of Napier'S army was confined
to marching and making roads,
There was no military strategy, or
fighting, or loss of life. The poor
semi barbarianS of that hilly coun-
try showed neither pluck nor pa
triotiSm, being in this respect much .
inferior to our own wild ApachcS,

pier did his duty very credltably as
things 90. but he was not called up F,
ON to initiate that grand NapoleonIc .
mode which was all very well after
the grand Napoleonic victories.

this the Republicans have reduced
the national debt about Sl0O,0OO,-
600 in about three years, for though
the debt really appears reduced only
500, 100000, about an equal sum
had been allowed and paid for
claims arising ont of the war, which
otherwise would have been added
to the debt. In this time we had
reduced taxation largely.
