road to the amount of three hundred aud

and report Oh Friday. Of the wisdom OF
such an investment by the county we
can see no room whatever for reasonable
doubt. 1t is only the question whether
we shall avail ourselves of the requisite

In the Senate, yesterday, Mr.. Edmunda
reported the following substitute for the
bill introduced by him on the 18th OF De-
cember, to prevent the holding of more
than one Office at the same time:
Be it enacted, etc., That no person
shall bold, nor shall receive q salary or
compensation for performing the duties
of more than one office, or place of trust
or profit, under the Constitution or laws
of the United States, at the same time,
whether such Office or place be civil, mil
itary or naval, and any person holding
any such Office or place, who shall accept
or hold any other office or place of trust
or prof under the Constitution and laws
of the United States, shsll be deemed to
have vacated the Office or place which he
held at the time of such acceptance.
The Senate then took up the bill to
"promote commerce between the States,
etc.
The Air Line railroad bill was read
at length. Mr.. sheruep said the COM
mittee had not thought IT necessary to
make q written report in favor of this
bill. because a member of the House
from Illinois (Washburn) had already
made report upon the subject, discus
sing freely the legal questions involved
in the bill, on the proposed charter of
three railroads. One from Washington
10 New York, one from Washington to
Pittsburg, and one from Washington to
Cincinnati.
Mr.. Sherman made an elaborate argu-
ment in favor of the Air Line railroad
bill, showing, frat, the necessity for the
neg roads; and, secondly, the right of
Congress TO authorize the construction
of them by virtue of its right to regulate
commerce between the States, and on
bis motion it was then postponed until
Monday. f
In the House the Secretary of War was
instructed to report how many citizens or
residents of the Southern States during
the var, or ex Confederate soldiers, are
now in the Union army in Texas, Missis-
sippi and Virginia.
On the Pension Appropriation bill
Wssbbprn, Of Illinois, made remarks,
which were listened to with unusual re-
spect in view of the supposed cor neetion
between the gentleman and the incoming
administration, and his speech might be
termed sn Introductory message, laying
the foundation for the policy of the next
pdmjnisirstion; and he was certain that
be spoke the sentiments Of the minority
Of the House, when he said that 80 far as
General Grant would faithfully initiate or
carry cut any reform, the minority would
give its full support, IS the country
wanted reform not reform in special
cases-not promises-not merely the cur
tailment of the expenses-but measures
that would produce harmony and the
GENERAL modification of the country.
The Pension bill appropriating 50. 250,-
900 was passed. The Naval Appropris-
ton bill Of 81, 527, 1872 was recommitted.
The Consular and Diplomatic Appropri-
alton bill was then taken up, and amend
msnts providing for but one Minister to
Nicaragua, Honduras, San Salvador and
Costa Rics, and bat one Minister to
New Grenada, Venezuela and Ecuador,
were agreed to, and the third, fourth and
fifth sections were strsck out The bill
was then reported to the House and
further consideration postponed.
