IN CONGRESS.

4 part of the new business in the SEN
ate yesterday was a petition from the
workingmen of Michigan on the sub
ject Of the currency, asking a s1bsltu-
ton of national bank notes for legal
tenders, and that such substitute be
made legsl-tender for all debts, public
and private. The original joint resOlu-
ton, that the bronze statue of Thomas
Jefferson, presented forty years ago, be
now formally accepted, and the statue
placed in the national statuary hall,
was reported from the committee on
public buildings, but no action was
taken by the senate. The subject of
appointing q commission on the alco-
holic liquor traffic was resumed and dis
Oussed until the expiration of the morn
ing hour, when the currency bill was
taken up, in the discussion of which SEN
ators SchurZ and Morton engaged In hot
debate, using language toward each
other that necessitsted the speaker call
ing them to order on two or three differ
ent occasions. No action was
taken on the measure. In the house,
among other business, of minor i'm
portance, bill was offered providing
for more complete organization of the
State department by creating the offices
Of third-assistsnt secretary and solicitor
to the department, each sslaried to the
amount of thirty-hve hundred dollars
per snnum. The bill to provide for the
distribution Of public documents, ETC.,
WAS resumed, and discussed to the hour
Of adjournment without definite action.
