From Washington.
CURR ENCY,

The Senate on Wednesday got back again
to the currency question, but this time deter
mined to make short work of it. After short
debate they came to voting, and few test
votes showed that the inflationists still
had small majority. The bill under con-
sideration was Shermans compromise bill
so called, which provides for free banking
and the retirement Of 100000 of green
backs for every $4,000,000 of national bank
bills issued, until greenbacks shall be re,
duced to s3O0,0O0000; specie payment TO be
resumed July /, 1876. The bill was SO amend,
cd that its author disowns it utterly. Il puts
off specie payment to 1878, removes most of
the restrictions from the national banks, and
reduces the interest on the bonds with which
it is proposed to redeem the greenbacks to so
low rate that they will never reach par until
redeemed in gold. The bill has still to pass
the house.
