Congress

The second and last session Of the 43d
Congress commenced on Monday, and
the Presidents Message, synopsis Of
which We publish in another column,
taken from the Baltimore Gazette, was
read in both Houses.
In the Senate the credentials of Messrs.
E.lmuuds and Eaton were presented. -
Mr.. Morrill, reported from the special
Committee an entirely new scheme of
government for the District Of Columbia,
embracing system Of Municipal Boards
the chief of whom shall be three Regents,
to be appointed by the President and con
firmed BY the Senate Mr. Sherman sub
initted bill for the revision Of the Gus
toms laws. Among other bills introduce
ed was one for the relief of the Western
sufferers by the ravages Of the grasshop-
pers. and another to break up the impor-
tation Of Chinese into California under a
system of slavery
In the House a number Of the new
members who had been elected to fill va
clncies we're sworn in. The forwardness
Of business was remarkable for the open
ing of the session, six Of the Appropria-
ton bills being reported and days fixed
for their consideration. These, aud the
amounts named in them, were as follows;
Legislative. Executive and Judicial,
Sl9.65S. 1874; Army, S27.701 500; In
dian, 81 s65, SO7; Notifications. $3.50
600; Naval, sl6,97G.7O 700; Consular aud

endeayored to introduce a bill for the
repeal of the Poland Gag law of the last
session, but he was shut Of by Mr.. But
Ter. The irrepressible Mr. Cox could
not refrain from letting Mr.. Butler know
how good he felt over the elections by
reminding the latter that his (Cox's)
side of the House would soon be in the
majority After this remark the House
adjourned, Mr.. Phelps giving notice that
he will press his bill for the repeal of
the Poland law.

Secretary Robeson's Report.

Secretary Robeson's report, shows our
little navy to be in good condition, con-
sidering the small amount of money that
is spent upon it and the age Of many Of
its ships. Itnow consists of 1913 vessels
of ali classes, but probably one-third Of
these are practically worthless. We
have seyenty-three steam vessels nomi-
nalIy fit for cruising, but there are but
fffy-eight of them that are Of service,
and of these forty-one are now in COM
mission. Twenty-one Of our iron-elads
can do duty, and the rest are ready for
the junk shop. Mr.. Robson devotes a
considerable portion of his report to a
commentator of the great naval drill
off the Florida coast last winter as a
specimen exhibition of the discipline and
efficiency of the navy. The Secretary
nowhere favors extravagant expenditures
but he argues that there should be re-
gular addition to the navy each year to
replace worn-out and retired ships. An
interesting portion of the report is that
treating of the movement amongst the
people Of Iceland to abandon their an
cient home and settle upon the North
Pacific coast Of the United States.

The inaationists will derive no more
comfort from the report Of the Secretary
Of the Treasury than from the Presi-
dents message, as it is fully as emphatic
in its advocacy of speedy return to
specie payments. He recommends that
the date at which resumption shall begin
be fxed at not more than three years
from the present, and then in order to
raise gold for the purpose of redeeming
50 much Of the paper issue as may be
presented authority should be conferred
upon the Secretary of the Treasury to
sell bonds The legal-tender act should
be repealed, the repeal to take effect from
fixed date, and to apply to all contracts
made after that date, except the expen-
ditures Of the Government under exist
ing appropriations. He does not favor
the restoration Of the moiety system,
but thinks that the penalties for the yio-
lation of the customs laws have been in
iuriously modified in several particulars
In regard to the tariff he recommends
that if Congress should determine to
take any action upon it, it should be
done deliberately; to which end he sug-
gests that commission be appointed to
revise the tariff and report to the next
Congress. He urges rigid economy and
careful revision Of the estimates of ex-
penditures.
