Sec0nd--The retiring Of an amount of green
backs equal to 10 per cent. OF the amount of the
new National Bank notes issued until the green

after which no further reduction of greenbacks IL

General News Summary.


Petitions from the National Temperance
Society and other temperance organizations
and churches, representing over 100000
petitioners, were presented In the lower
house Of Congress on the 18th, asking Tor
the early passage Of the bill TO provide for q
commission Of inquiry concerning the alco-
holic liquor traffic which passed the Senate
last session.
Lieut. Com. Gushing died at Washington
on the 18th, In the ipsane asylum, Of which he
had been an inmate about two weeks.
A Washington telegram Of the 18th says
Atty Gen. williams was beginning to receive
returns regarding the troubles In Mississippi,
and affairs were reported TO be In deplorable
condition. 1t is said that 1T the city election
In Columbus on the 9Th OF December much
intimidation was used and many assaults
were made. !
According TO Washington dispatches OF the
10Th Twins testimony In regard to the dis
position OF the $3.50, 900 OF Pacific Mail money
is TO the effect that he spent 1t in Washington
TO secure an additional subsidy, but he re-
fused TO state to whom he had paid It, II
was declared that Irwin would be sent 10 jail
and kept there until he would testify as TO
who were the recipients Of the money.
The Secretary Of the Treasury says the esti-
mate OF the Director Of the Mint shows gain
In specie and bullion In the last two fiscal
years OF about 100000, and the stock OF
specie In the country Is said to be about
$1G6,O00,000. This, In connection with the
annual production OF about $70,000,OOO Of
precious metals, affords encouragement
that the stock OF coin may, within
reasonable time and with favorable legisla-
tion, be accumulated to an extent sufficient
to enable the resumption of specie payment
to be undertaken and maintained
In his testimony before the Ways and
Means Committee, on the 2lst, Richard b.
Irwin stated that he "neither employed, nor
promised, nor agreed TO pay, nor had any UNI
derstandng with any person that he should
pay money TO any member or officer OF this
Congress, or Of the Forty-second Congress, or
any person subject to the jurisdiction OF this
House." Irwin refused to give the names Of
the persons whom he did employ, and de-
clined TO state the largest sum paid TO any
one person, but said he had paid the whole
amounts 50, 000--to other persons whom he
employed. ~

ing Of Kellogg elected. to be Governor, and Penn
the Fusion candidate, who ran ahead OF his ticket,
to be observation-disclosures. Then Kellogg was to
be chosen Senator, and tho State Administration
would pass into the hands OF the Fusonists. or
course it would not do to let Pinchback, Marshal
Packard and the other leading Administration
lights who were then in Washington opposing the
passage of Mr.. Carpenters resolution know what
proposed, and so. while they believed that they
were supported by Kellogg, he was secretly
telegraphng to the President and Acknowledgement,
and perfccting the plan that was to deliver them
into the hands ofthe Phlistnes The Bdminstra-
ton here knowing nothing of what was to follow
the compromise looked very favorably upon it, and
the probability that il would be agreed to was tele-
grapbed to THE TRIBUNE. That dispatch and an
accidental reference to the matter in their presence
by ex-Gov. WarmOth, who had been consulted.
opened the eyes of those who were managing the
case in Washington, and led to an immediate visit
to the White House and n defeat of the plan. The
present movement for a new election seems to con
template similar selling OUT of a part of the
party in Louisiana, but it is not, this time, to be
for Kelloggs benefit.

OF Mr. Richardson declare that the President Is not
moved by the pressure brought to bear upon nm;
ana that although he has asked the opinions OF
half dozen Senators to the best successor TO the
Secretary, in case q change should be made he mas
never for moment seriously contemplated making
change. They say that Mr.. Richardson suits the
President exactly; that he does not want man OF
positive ideas finance in the Treasury but greatly
prefers Secretary who does not know more about
the subject than he does.
