Congress-.

Both Houses of Congress have con-
Cured in lixinL upon the 18th OF July
Tor final adjournment. There i a good
deal of business laid ont. and it will bt
impossible to dispose of it all without
hard, diligent work. Last Friday the
Senate had an all-night session on the
bill to enforce the fifteenth amendment,
and at o'clock Saturday morning it
passed entire, by Il vote # y 20 Q. The
bill contains twenty-onc- sections, and is
destined to secure the practical enforce
ment of both the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments, and to preserve the purity
OF elections everywhere, particularly in
New York, several sections having been
purpoScly drawn 10 meet the necessities
of that state, and offered by Mr.. Shcr-
man as amendments 10 the original bill.
y special despatch to The Jouynai thus
describes the way the sleepy senators
were recalled:
At three o'clock in the mor:ing it was
noticed that several RcpGh.i - had
quietly slipPod away, and that there was
danger that the Democrats. by with,lraw-
ing from the chamhar, might leave the
Senate without y quorum. and lhu9 force
an adjournment. SO the abSentees were
sent Tor, and came IN one after another,
looking very sleepy. One veteran sen
ator. who had been thus aroused from
his slumber~, amused those who sat near
him by giving in a whisper an account
Of his dressing himself and If his at
tempts 20 put on one Of the sheets Of his
bed, thinking that he had gotten hold of
An under garment. Somehow he could
not find the sleeves.
