Congress in Session.

w AsHINGToN, Dec. 1.-The opening
of the third session of the Forty-third
Congress attracted a very large audi
ence, the majority of those present in
either House being ladies. There was
the usual scene in the Senate chamber
and on the floor of the House, of men,
bers congratulating each other and dis
cussing the political condition of affairs.
The Liberal Republicans stood the
brunt of many jokes by their political
friends in a more composed manner
than was expected.
Both houses were called to or der
promptly at meridian, and after prayer,
the rool call followed, showing a very
large attendance, many more than a
quorum.
A committee was thereupon appoint
ed to wait upon the President and oti-
fly him that Congress was ready to re-
ceive any message he might desire to
communicate.
The probable action of the Demo-
cratic Presidential electors on Wednes-
day is much talked about by the leaders
of both parties. The most prominent
Democrats say that the death of Gree
ley places them in very embarrassing
predictment, and if their electors cast
their votes for any persons than the
nominees of the Baltimore Convention
| there Is sure to be much dissatisfaction
among the wheel-horses of the party.
| The suggestion of the Tribune that the
entire vote be given to Grant is bitterly
opposed by leading Democrats, and
even Senator Fenton said to-day that
he regarded the proposition as in very
| bad taste.
| WASHINGTON, Dec. AFTER the
appointment of the committee to wait
| upon the President by the House, Mr..
Dawes said it was proper that Congress
should take notice Of very recent
national calamity, viz, the death of
Horace Greeley, and he therefore SUBJ
mitted resolution that there be placed
upon the records of the House an ap-
propriate notice of the life aud public
services of Mr.. Greeley.
Mr. Cox followed in a touching eulo-
". and the resolution was thereupon
unanimously passed.
Gen. Banks said it was proper that
the House should have at the head of
the Committee of Foreign Affairs one
| in entire sympathy with its policy, and
with the administration, which he is
not, and therefore he would ask to be
excused from serving on the committee.
Several members hoped that the
gentleman from Massachusetts would
not be excused from the committee,
but only from the craftsmanship.
The House, by vote of fifty nine to
seyenty-six, refused to excuse Mr..
Banks from serving on the committee.
Speaker Blaine, calling Mr. Cox to
the chair. took the floor, and said he
arose to a question of the highest privil-
eye During the recent political can
vass, charges of corruption were made
against several members of the House,
! Senators, and the Vice President, in
connection with the Credit Mobillier.
These changes we're of such nature
as to demand investigation, and be
would move the appointment of speci
al committee, which should be COM
| posed of maj ority of those who are in
the majority in the House.
After some discussion the resolution
was passed, and Mr.. Cox appointed
Messrs. Poland, Banks, Beck, Niblack,
and McCreery as the comittee.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

In the money market there Is no material
change to note. The demand for money con-
tinues good and the supply fair, and tendency
of the market appears towards closeness.
In Chicago the market is rsported about the
