A Dull Day In Congress.

Neither of the houses evinced any remark
able degree of industry yesterday, and their
proceedings were unmarked by any hing
worthy of special reference. The Senate con-
Cured in the resolution for the holiday ad-
journment, and took up the concurrent resolu-
ton providing for final adjournment on the
third Monday in May. Mr.. Sumner desired
adjournment until after the passage of a sup
Elementary Civil Rights bill, securing equal
rights, without distinction OF race or color; and
MIR. Schurz wished to tack on similar pro-
viso, postponiny the adjournment until after
legislation reducing the tariff and internal
taxes and legislation to reform the civil
service. No action was taken, and the Senate
broke off the discussion aud went into execu-
tive session.
In the House o resolution was adopted di-
recting Investigations into the workings of the
several executive departments of the govern
ment The bill revising and consolidating the
Post Office laws was passed, and bill appro-
priating quarter of q million of dollars for
the expenses Of the Geneva Court of Arbitra-
ton was reported from the Committee on For
eign Affairs, and, after long discussion on
technical points of order, was referred to the
Committee of the Whole on the State of the
Union. Then the Apportionment bill was
taken up and discussed for a couple of hours
without any action, and, just at the adjourn
ment resolution was adopted directing in

SUSPENSION OF THE OCEAN BANK.-Another
rickety banking institution has gone the way
of its many immediate predecessors, the won
der being that its Pickering light held out to
burn so long. Tie Ocean Bank has been in
bad way ever since it was burglarized few
years ago, and, what with bad debts and loans
on deprecated securities has been going down
hill ever since. The Clearing House finally
thought proper TO investigate its affairs, found
them too precarious to admit of its longer
companionship, and threw out its checks yes

course, be all right, and the depositors are

THE Crown JEWELS OF FRANcE.-The Ma
tional Assembly Of France has adopted a
committee recommendation advising the alien
ation of the crown jewels of the country to
the State. OF what benefit will the gems be
to the simple republic? President Theirs
would not use them, probably, if they were
given him as present Will they be sold for
the use of the Treasury? Such an applca-
ton of the valuables would be beneficial to the
French people. Or will they be permitted to
remain in the government vaults awaiting the
return of Napoleon and Eugcnie?
