The House to-day was engaged in the con-
slderatIon of the diplomatic and consular ap-

proprIatlon for a consul to Havana, character

which the Cuban people we're revolving, sup
ported by the sympathy Of the people OF the
United States. Voorhees, favored the recog-
milton of Cuban independence, saying there
was not q foot of the soil righlfully subject 10
Spanish bayonets. He said the Spanish ALL.

WASHINGTON, February 20.
The mightiest speech OF the session or OF
many preceding sessions of Congress was to-
day made by Senator Carl schurz before o
magnificent audience. During the delivery
Of this speech the idea OF o triumphant charge
with intellectual bayonets aud cannon was
fully realized, and at its conclusion every one
of the foremost henchmen OF the adminislra-
ton party In the Senate seemed In the minds
eye to be laid sprawling under their respec-
live seals on The Senate floor. Senator Schurz
occupied q seat In front OF Senator Summers,
next to the outer run of the semi-circle, on
The left or Republican side of The chamber,
surrounded by his Republican sdversaries, but
therefore all The more conspicuous as an inde-'
pendent champion of reform. He Stood up to
reply to Conkllng on the question of Summers
resolution lor The investigation Of the sale Of
arms by the United States Government dll-
ring the late Franco Prussian war to agents
Of France. The very attitude of the senator
proclaimed his Intention to attack Instead Of
to defend himself against his adversares. 1t
was the posture OF one of those fiery German
students that we read Of-with one foot ior-
ward and rapier in his hand.
The opening of his speech was like the

branded the motives and prophesied with
words Of fire the issue Of the attempt OF the
Republican senator's who are trying to ward
of all Investigation into the abuses Of General
Grants administration. 1t sounded like q
trumpet, aud stllng Conkling, Morton, and
their associates like an aduer. The senator
from Indiana, (MortoD,) he said, had SET out
to prove yesterday that there had been no
illegal sales of arms TO France because (al-
luding TO the course OF Senators Schurz and
Sumner at this crisls) there was no way
out Of the ranks of the regular administra-
tlon party tnat did not lead into the Demo-
cratic party. The senator from New York
(Conkling) had likewise essayed to show
that such sales by the government
were not facts 10 be Investigated, because
there was Senatorial cabal opposed TO the
corruption which has thrived under the rule OF
the administration. But Senator Shlrz made
II very plain that ii was this same cabal which
had niDped the Santo Domingo job IN the bud.
which had forced investigation OF the abuses
under the New York Customhonse system,
and which was now about 10 compel the adop.

everything that the administration Senators
could do or say. Passing then to consldera.

argument OF wonderful logical accuracy and
force upon three propositions: First, did tne

COLUMBIA, s. c., February q.
There seems at last to be some prospect OF
the General Assembly taking some action
looking toward the adoption Of the cumula-
tive plan; OF voting at general elections. A
resolution which sought to accomplish this
Important reform, by proposing constitu-
tional amendment to that effect, to be submit
ted to the people next October, was Intro
dtic&d in the Senate many weeks ago by Mr..
Cardoza, but It was at once referred TO the
Judiciary committee, and 1t has ever since
slufnbefed In that tomb ofthe Capnlets. To-
day however, 1t was reported bacS with a
favorable Recommendation, and accompanied
by resolution intended to define the manner
OF Submitting the question OF It's adoption to
the people. The report of the committee, AFTER
alluding to the Importance Of the proposed re.
form, and quoting the suggestion In the last
annual message Of the Governor, recommends
the adoption Of the following resolution
Resolred, &c. That the following article be
submitted to the qualified electors OF the State
to the constitution Of the State, which, II
majority of the electors qualified to vote for
members OF the General Assembly voting
thereon shall vote in favor OF such an amend
ment, and two-thlrds Of each branch OF the
General Assembly shall after such an election
and before another ratify the same, shall be-
come part of the constitution.
SECTIoN2. That at the next general election
in this State those who desire to vote In favor
Of the said proposed amendment shall deposit
In the ballot-box ticket on which shall be
written or printed Unconstitutional amendment

sire 10 vote in opposition to the said amend
mentshall deposit in the ballot-box ticket on

The Debate on Wednesday--A Tart but
Fitting Rejoinder.


The debate in the Senate was continued to-
day. Morton concluding his remarks Of yes
terday. Several exciting colloquies with
Schurz were interspersed in bis speech, In all
of which the latter bore of the palm OF victo-
ry. ConkIIng also attempted to spar with the
Missouri senator, but retired from the contest
without single triumph. The former lntimated
that Schurz, in his speech ofyesterday, strutled
before the Senate and boasled Of his personal
powess, referring to Schurz's assertion that 10
the past he had met men more dangerous
than Conking, and would not finch before
thousands of them. To this schurz said II he
strutted he begged pardon for Infringing on
ConkIings privilege, and as for boasling, he
had only said that he would never quail be-
lore thousand men like Conkling, and this
was surely no demonstration of courage. The
war WAKES more earnest and bitter every
