No Appropriation for Nashville.
WASHINGTON, March A. A. Mn the
omnibus appropriation bill, the appropla'
ton for public buildings at Hartford,
Conn, Nashville, Tenn, Little ROCK,
Ark, and St. Louis, Mo-, were rejected.
The bill then passed.
Mr.. Trumbun moved to proceed to the
consideration of the House joint resolu'
ton repeating the duty on coal. Agreed to.
Considerable discussion at once ensued,
and motions were made for an executive
session, and to take up private bills, fol
the purpose of consuming time and de-
feeting the bill. Mr.. Trumbull protested
against the course of the opponents OF
repeal and appealed to its friends to stand
bv the measure. 1t was debated until
within few minutes of 5 o'clock this
morning, when the Senate held an execu
tive session of one hour and then took
recess till 10:30A M.
Closing Scene-TOO Late 10 DO Good.
The galleries were crowded at 10 this
morning, on the resumption of business.
Much interest was manifested, both in
the galleries and on the floor, in the
closing scenes, which, however, were de-
void Of special interest. The bin for the
abolition of the tax on coal was laid aside,
to give way to bill for the relief of the
Sisters of Charity at Charleston, which
was under debate till che cession expired.
The same subject was under considera.
ten at the close of the preceding session
of this Congress, when, as on the present
occasion, it was defeated by debate.

9Th of March, at IL O'Clock, was agreed
to.

moved that Waddell be sworn in as
agreed, and Waddell, of North Carolina,
on motion Of Mr.. Kelly was sworn in,

with the usual uproar and confusion

A Loss OF Nine Millions on the
Staple within Twenty-FOur Hours
Threatened Financial COnvuI
sion In England.
NEW York, March 1.-The Worlds
financial article notices that the Bank Of
England has advanced the rate of dis
count per cent, and says the cotton
markets are in state of decentralization
bordering on a panic. The advance in
the rate of discount is precautionary
measure in the event of sudden and great
Withdrawals of money from the LonGOn
market, where it has been deposited for
safety by persons on the continent of
Europe during the war. The decline in
price and the tendency to panic in the
cotton markets in Liverpool and New
York, is caused by a notification that
loans must be returned by spectators
who are overloaded with cotton. 1t is
stated that the Greek merchants in En-
rope are carrying very heavy load OF
cotton, and no doubt they will be forced
to sell and realize from the action of the
Bank. The writer continues: that the
power of the Bank of England to crush
the most gigantic speculations has been
frequently illustrated in the past, and
cites how the Bank crushed the Greek
speculation In grain not many years ago,
and the financial crisis and panic which
resulted therefrom.
No doubt the Bank of England has
commenced the policy of contraction in
| its accommodations to all foreign firms
and SPECTATORS who are likely to weaken
| its reserve of coin, and there was a more
| active demand for foreign bills of ex-
change in the New York market yester-
/ day owing to kilograms from firms in
Europe to their correspondents here fol
remittances to strengthen themselves
against the eventuality of decline in the
| price of cotton. Within the last twenty.
| four hours there has been about nine
millions of dollars loss on the entire cot
| ton crop of the South.

Death Of a Well known Citizen.

We are deeply panied to chronicle the
death of our well known citizen John n.
Tardiff, ESQ.,, who died yesterday morning
at about o'clock. His death was from
consumption, and his disease has been
lingering one. Though his sufferings Of
late have been great, ne bore them pa
tiently aud without mUrmur, quietly and
philosOphically awaiting the result which
he was convinced would soon occur. Mr..
Tardiff was reared in this city, and had
very large circle of acquaintance. He was
genial and lively IN his disposition, fun Of
fun and life, and always pleased when It
was in his power to extend favor to
friend. He was in fact too charitable In
his nature for his own good. Wei DO We
remember his attentions to the sick during
the prevalence of the cholera in this city
some years ago. He iOrsOOk business and
went about day and night on a mission OF
mercy, administering aid to the needy and
comfort to the distressed, neglecting the
canton necessary to preserve bus OWE
health.
The deceased was the son Of tbs late
Peter Tardiff. one OF the pioneer news
paper publishers Of Tennessee. Our old
citizens are familiar with the frnfof Hunt,
Tariff Il Co., prOprietOrs Of the Nashville
Republican many years ago. Al his chill
dren, We believe, we're victims to che dread
disease which summoned the last surviving
member Of the family, the subject Of this
sketch, to that b2urne from whence no
traveller returns.
Mr.. Tardiff has been cut down in the
very hey day Of life. He lacked bat few
days of being 80 years of age, and during
his last hours expressed himself as bsin ;
anxious to witness the light Of another
birthday, but it was decre5d otherwise.
All thai was earthly of John Marshall Tar
diff has passed away. Let his virtues b
engraved upon the tablets of memory, and
if he had vices, lei them be written upon
the sand.
The funeral of Mr.. Tardiff takes place
at the First Cumberland Presbyterian
Church this evening at 2 O'Clock, and viii
be attended by the Order Of Odd Fellows.

Meeting of Finance Committee.

the Finance Committee met with the
Committee on Common Schools at the
Courthouse yesterday. The claims of the
First district were presented, based on the
following grounds: Three County Com
missiOners as such, in 1869, appropriated
81, 900 for the twenty-four districts, ex-
Guiding the First, or Nashville district,
from the appropriation. The amount pro
rata due the First district, as per scholas-
tic population, would exceed $1,000
There being a diversity of opinion no
definite conclusion was arrived at as to the
final settlement, but it was agreed that in
order to keep the schools of the First dis
trict in operation, that the Trustee be re-
quested to pay over to the proper authori-
ty the pro rata falling due for the months
of February and March, which will enable
the County Court at the April term to take
final action in the premises. The Com
mittee then adjourned till the next regular
meeting on Thursday next.

1t appears that Ward had been ar
rested several times on q charge of in
timidating negroes at the polls and given
bonds, which ]. G. Reeves, q cousin of
the deceased, acting Marshal, refused to
accept. Ward had denounced Reeves for
alleged persecution, which w. 81. Reeves
resented, which led to his death. tits also
stated that w. H. Reeves had been sum-
moned by ]. G. Reeves, acting Marshal
to assist in arresting Ward on an old
charge, and was in the discharge of that
duty when killed.

Down in the Gutter.

We observed yesterday, on Shankland
street, e man past the noon Of life, who
was tolersbly we'll dressed and apparently
in good health, down in the dirt and filth
of the gutter, overcome and senselessly
stupefed with drink. There he lay worse,
for the time, than the brute on the COM
mons, hogs roofing around him, his face
swollen, blurred and bloated, his clothes
soiled with dirt, as white boys and black
boys passed him by with their jibes and
jeers. Who can ever enumerate the
wrecks, the crushings, the soul-slaughters,
the heart-aches and the havocs Of the
whisky fiend?
