unfinished business, being the bill to equalize
the distribution of the national banking circu-
lation, was taken up, the pending question be-
ing on the motion to recommit with instruc
tions offered by Mr.. MerrimoD and adopted by
the Senate. Mr. Schurz took the floor, and
opposed imitation OF the currency, aud was fol-
lowed by Mr.. Sherman upon the same side of
the question. MIR. Morton replied at length in
favor of such an increase of currency as the in
creased products and industries of the country
called for. Mr.. Sprauge, from the Committee
extension OF the Wisconsin Central railroad,
when the Senate went into executive session,
and then adjourned.
In the House Of Representatives the usual
number of bills, petitions, and resolutions were

District interests. The House then resumed
consideration of the bill to revive the traukiug
privilege, which led to an extended debate, pro
and con-, by various members, when MIR. Cobb
obtained the floor, and announced his intention
of speaking upon the subject when the bill next
came up. Mr.. Kelley, from the Committee on
Ways and Means, reported back bill direct.

An Unprecedented Appeal"


Senator MORTON begs Congress to take
money out of the Treasury to enable
the negroes of Indiana to appeal from
the decision of the Supreme Court Of
that State to the Supreme Court Of the
United States, in the case in which
it is decided by the Indiana court that
negroes have no right to be educated in the
same schools with whites.
Such an application, we take it, Is without
precedent. It would be beautiful thing for
the people of Indiana to contemplate, that
the Federal Government should step in as
the partisan of the negro, and endeavor By its
means and power to reverse the decision Of
their highest State court, and make them
all social equals and companions Of the ne
gro. Not to speak of such gross insult
to q State, the plain attempt that would thus
BE- made by Congress to force the whites Of
Inaiaua into intimate social relations with
heroes, would be an offence against the peo
pleof that State that could never be for
6 ven. Would they submit to it9 They
must be very strange part of the white
tace il they would.
We shall see how Mr.. MoRroN's move
ment takes. 1t was all very well SO long a,
his fanaticism and malice were directed q,
the South; but 1t Is q different matter wber
he turns upon the northern people, and
especially upon his own fellow, citizens.
