that all extra expenditures on the navy should at

the appropriation voted few days ago, expressed
TINS popular conviction. 1t may, therefore, be fairly

subject in the Senate have done more harm than
good. No one who has written speech on this sub
ject except Senator Fenton has apparently brought
to its discussion careful study of the principles that
underlie it, and the majority of the speeches that
are to come will probably be no better than those
already read. After the recess the Senate will be
able to take hold of the Pinchback case and handle
it more understandingly. Very few expected a re-
port from Mr.. Mortons Committee for weeks to
come, and very few Senators prepared for the
debate. Some of them, at least. will spend part of
the recess in reading the testimony taken and the

THE PRINTING ABUSE.

ANOTHER STEP IN THE DIRECTION OF REFORM-A
BILL ADOPTED BY THE SENATE REPEATING THE
LAW REQUIRING THE PRINTING OF DOCUMENTS
FOR POPULAR DISTRIBUTION.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSEl
WAsHISGToN, Dec. 19.-The Senate has taken an
other step toward reforming the public printing
abuse 1t has for several years been the law that of
certain animal reports the public printer shall
without any resolution directing him TO do
~. print an extra number for general
distribution that is make an edition of from 20OO0
$1,000 of them in addition 900 printed for the
Of the two Houses and those supplied TO the De-
yartments. One of those documents is the abridge
of the annual reports of which the law requires
s.. coo. Mr.. Anthony reported from his committee
to-day a bin repeating the law requiring
t1e printing of this document, and urged i'm
mediate action, since if the bill was not passed
before the recess the Public Printer would have to
go Oh and get ont the edition. debate of course
snsu,d, in which several Senators avowed them
selves as in favor of reviving the franking prvi-
lege, but opposed TO allowing any more extravagant
printing unless way of sending the documents
tIee through the mails was devised.
MI Sargent said that the ink, pTesswork, paper.
aud binding for the agricultural report, now IN
type, should the House resolution pass would cost
Sl3s,CO0. Mr.. Sherman moved 10 amend the bill by
making II suspend all laws and resolutions author
izng documents TO be printed for popular dis
tTibuton, and the bill, thus amended
Was passed. Although the House did
mot act upon this bill, the Public Printer

re- ess The passage of this bill by the Senate will
pul pend the printing of the following among other
documents 10000 copies of the report on exports
and imports; 5000 copies abridgement annual
Executive reports; 1000 copies commercial rela-
hons GOO copies diplomatic correspondence, two
volumes.
II is but fair TO the Public Printer to state one
fact that Mr.. Anthony mentioned in the debate to-
day and that is that all of the blanks &c, used in
the Departments now printed at the pub
3e printing Office at half the cost to the Government
Which would be charged by outside firms. The fault
IT lot that the printing that is done costs too much

KNCY.
INV TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.
WASHINGTON, Dee. 19-An experienced banker,
who has given great attention TO questions of ma
fional finance, talking with member of the Bank
ing and Currency Committee lately, urged plan
for resuming specie payments and at the
time sffording the increased volume
of currency for which the West and
South are SO clamorous. Let the Treasury issue
slO0Oo00O0 of bonds he sand, land sell them for
geld, aud at the same time bring the greenback cir
sulaton up to S4O0OOO,O00. The gold thus obtained
with that now in the treasury, would be ample
according 10 experience under the old State bank
ing system, 10 float the whole body of
rreenback circulation under resumption of
specie payments Then let there be an additional
jssue of National bank notes TO the extent OF
Sl00Oc0 600, with provision authorizing the banks
10 redeem their notes in either greenbacks or gold
The additional paper money thus secured, with the
gold that would be released by resumption and
thrown into circulation currency, would afford
1nhatiOn TO the fullest extent required"
The objection of the member of the Banking
Committee to this scheme not that the nfa-
tion IL provides for would be damage 10 the
country instead of a benefit for he is infla-
Zionist, but he said that resumption could not be
maintained for any considerable time long the
