AIR Limo WaiIrOnds,


Air Line Railroads.
Mr.. Garrett, President OF the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad made an argument to-day
before the Committee on Roads and Canals
against the air line railroad to New York. The
committee, however, are determined to report
bill similar in character to Sherman's bill
now before the Senate, and an effort wall be
made to secure its passage.
Ineligible OHiciaIs.
The Senate judiciary Committee to day
agreed to report a bill imposing heavy fines
and imprisonment on any person attempting
to perform the functions of an Office to which
he is Ineligible under the fourteenth amend
ment.
Steamship Lines.
The Senate Postal Com mittee to-day heard the
New York steamship men on the same subject
that occupied the attention Of the House Postal
Committee yesterday.
Specie Payment.
The Finance Committee Of the Senate to day
considered amendments which will be offered 20
the finance bill reported the other day. The
committee are unanimous against fixing any
time for the resumption of specie payments.
COngressiOnaI News i'm n Nutshell
The House has ordered night session, COM
mencing this evening". These are for general
debate; no business is to be transacted.
Secretaries Seward and MeCulloch were on
the floor of the Hnuse for some time to-day.
The postponement of Lynch's bill for a gradual
resumption of specie payments sends it back to
the Committee on Banking and Currency.
Butler could not secure enough votes to
demand the yeas and nays on his motion to
postpone, which shows that the bill is not
popular in the House.
The Reconstruction Committee is still at
work hearing the different delegations from
Virginia! relative to the condition OF affairs in
that State. To-day Colonel j, B. Baldwin and
Mr.. Whittle:ey made statements before the com.
| mittee.
