CONGRESS adjourned last Monday.
Before the adjournment, however, a
fierce war of words took place in the
House.: between Judge BINGHAM, Rad
ical, and Gen. MORGAN, Democrat,
the former declaring that the con-
duct of the Democrats in delaying
Radical legislation was treason, as
dishonorable and damning as that
of twelve years ago; and the latter
replying that BINGHAM's statement
was lie, and he would cram it down
his throat. The Radicals tried to get
the Speaker to have Gen. MORGAN
arrested by The Sergeant at Arms,
but he only decided that their pro-
ceedings were out of order and dis
orderly. Gen. MORGAN was the Fed
eral commander in charge of Cum
berland Gap, in 1862, and succeeded
in escaping with his army with su-
perior hostile armies in his front and
rear.
The enforcement act was passed
after being robbed of many of its OBJ
jectionable features. 1t provides, as
passed, that in any county or parish,
in any Congressional district, if ten
citizens request the Judge of q. S.
Circuit Court TO have legislation or
elections guarded and scrutinized,
the Judge shall appoint two citizens
of the election district or voting pre-
cict, Of different political parties, as
supervisors of elections. They are
not TO be paid and are not empower
ed TO make arrests or perform other
duties except 10 be in the immediate
presence of the officers holding the
election, and to witness all their pro-
ceedings, including the counting OF
votes, and making returns thereon.
This is clearly an unconstitutional act,
although it is rot near so obnoxious
as it was feared Radical Congress
would pass.

NEW YORK, April Is.
Thomas J. Simmons. Garrett Mcmillan and
John J. Hall, Of the Georgia legislative COM
mlttee, appointed to register and investigate
the ownership of the Issue OF Georgia State
bonds, have taken offices at No. 40 Wall street,
and expect to hold daily sessions until the first
of May. General Robert Toombs Is not with
the committee as was enormously reported,
but is detained In Georgia by sickness. The
pow accorded to the committee by the acts
creating 1t is, that they have full authority to
examine and ascertain the number of bonds
which have been issued, and the aggregate
amount of the same, If any have been sold or
hypothecated, by whom sold, and the amount
paid for them, when and to whom paid, and
all other facts connected with their history.
Where such information Is refused, or where
the bonds are reported for registration, 1t shall
be construed as prima .facie evidence of their
fraudulence and Illegally. The act also states
that none OF its provisions shall be construed
Into q pledge for the payment of any bonds Is

heard on all sides when 1t became evident that
further waiting was useless. Every entrance
to the building was blocked, and at an early
hour the order was Issued to refuse admission
to every one. Still the crowd waited, and
men seemed loath 10 depart 30 long as the
barest chance of gaining an entrance seemed
possible. On Third venue and Fourth avenue
the sidewalks were completely blocked, and 1t
was not until nearly ten o'clock that the great
majority of the crowd had disappeared. One
feature particularly noticeable was the good
humor that prevailed; there were no disturb
ances outside the building, and everything
passed off In an orderly manner.
