Second Days Proceedings of the District
erand Lodge.

ST. LOUIS, January 23.-The order
of Bnai- Birth continued its session
yesterday, but the proceedings were
confined almost entirely to matters
affecting the interests of the order.
The only subject before the meeting
of public interest was series of resO-
lutions offered by J. Wolf, of Cincin-
natl, snd signed by every member
of the convention, deprecating in
strong terms the introduction Of theo-
logical matters into the constitution
of the United States, or the interfer-
ence Of doeirinal questions with the
unlimited prerC. i've of religious
liberty in Americs. These resolutions
were unanimously accepted.
In the evening Missouri lodge No.

members Of the convention a banquet

Mr.. Sargent from the committee on
mines, reported bill for the develop
ment of the mines of the country. 1t
declares that all government lands,
whether surveyed or not, are free and
open to exploration and purchase, and
defines certain rules governing newly
discovered mines, etc. An amend
ment was agreed to tbss the bill
should not affect the rights of the pro-
prietors of the SutrO Tunnel.
Mr.. Pierce from the committee on
education and labor, reported bill to
establish an educational fund and to
apply the proceeds from the sale OF
public lands to the education of the
people, and asked that it be put upon
its passage.
The morning hour having expired
the house went into committee Of the
whole on legislative and executive aD-
preparation bill, Mr.. Wheeler in the
chair.
Mr.. Garfield chairman of the COM
mittee on appropriations, remarked
that the revenues and their expen-
diture might be almost said
to be the whole scope of the
government of modern nations. In
looking over the statistics Of England
de had discovered the curious fact that
whenever England had a war, the
expenditure Immediately, and natu-
rally leaped up enormously to a
higher level, and, war ending, expen.
dituaes graded down rapidly and at
last struck level below which they
did not 60. That level was always a
good leSl higher than the level from
which the country had started when
war began. But what had struck him
as most remarkable was the length Of
time it took after war for a nation to
get down as far as Il would 90 In the
reduction Of expenditures. 1t ap-
peared to be the law in the United
States that the length of that time was
about equal to double the length of
time that war lasted. 1t had taken
England twenty years after the Ma
pole0nic wars to reach her mean peace
level of expenditure. He calculated
that the United States would reach its
lowest peace level in 1875, when he
thought that the ordinary expendi-
lures Of the government would be
about one hundred and twenty-five
millions, and the interest on the public
debt ninety-fve millions. He had
divided the expenditures into
three great heads, and had found
the proportions of this amount
referable to the late war, exclusive of
the interest on the public deDt, sixty
and half I or cent, the present army
and navy Establishments, fourteen
per cent. and all other departments of
the government twenty-five and q
half per cent. The same heads in the
expenditures OF the English govern
ment were thirty-eight and q half.
thirty-three and twenty-eight and q
half per cent. Coming down to the
bill itself, be said it appropriated 81
2S6, 900 less than the like bill last
year, and $4,000. 900 less than
asked for in estimates.
Mr.. Beck remarked that he had

Third-Charity for differences of

the noblest attributes of man, and the
action of those who are endeayoring
to force their peculiar religious views

United States of America, will. If
successful, destroy the equality of man

jewel OF his soul-civi and religious
liberty.

mittee two years, and that it was
the stingiest committee he ever
knew. It had to come back with 8
deficiency bill and he predicted that
the present committee would have
to do the same after the presidential
election. Laughter.
Mr.. Wood said that he thought that
Mr.. Garfield should have given a por-
ton Of his time to the study and ex-
PLANTATION OF the IamentapIe and ex-
tra0rdinary fact stated in the eivIl
service report, that the cost Of col
lecting the taxes amounted to one
fourth. He thought that the chairman
of the COMMITTEES on appropriations
should have proposed some means by
which congress would curtail these
enormous expenditures and restrict
them within their legitimate bounds.
Mr.. Hale said, as to the statement
quoted by Mr.. Wood from the civil
service report, not one would claim
that it was borne out by facts and fig
Ures; on the contrary, the cost of col
lection was not more than five or six
per cent. Of the aggregate of the rev.
enue.
Mr.. Maynard suggested that the ex-
pense of collecting the revenue was
only four per cent.
Mr.. Hale explained that what the
civil. service commissioners want to
convey in the remark quoted was not
that onesfourth of the revenue was
stolen, but that one-fourth of what
ought to be received by the govern
ment was lost, and that was owing to
spOils, a system handed down from
Democratic days.
Mr.. Wood remarked that the cost
of collecting customs, ten years ago,
under the Democratic party, was three
million dollars year; now it was
nine million dollars.
Mr.. Kellogg remarked that ct that
time the amount Of the customs-du-
ties collected was less than one hun
dred million dollars, and it then cost
three million dollars to collect it,
whereas the amount collected last year
was two hundred and six million dol
lars.
Mr.. Wood remarked that it should
cost very little more to collect two
hundred million dollars than it cost to
collect one hundred million dollars,
because the machinery of collection
was all the same.
The general debate closed and the
clerk proceeded to read the bill by
clauses for amendment. After pro.
crossing through thirteen pages of the
bill, which contains tifty-six pages,
the committee rose.
