Ia the Senate, yesterday, Mr.. Frcnghuysen
reported the Simmer civil rights bill, with
amendments. A bill was Introduced and re-
fcrred to incorporate the Washington City and
Atlantic Ocean railroad Mr. Window called
up the bill to enable the Mennonites from
Russia to effect permanent settlement on the
public lands. The introduction of this subject
brought out several Senators. who opposed the
bill % the ground that it was class legislation
and woDld accord special privileges to sect.
They would not consent that any body OF pco-
pie should come here under the protection OF
our laws aud be exempt from contributing their
share to the common support aud common de-
tense of the country. The bill went over. The
Louisiana bill was then discussed.
In the House, the committee on civil service
reported bill for the reorganization of the
Treasury Department. also bill abolishing
the Office ofappraiscr of merchandise at Provi-
dence, II. l., Pttsburg, Pa, Norfolk, Va,
and other places aud declaring that hereafter
there shall be but one appraiser at the ports
Of Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Charleston,
5. Z. The bill was passed. Mr.. Maynard de-
manded the previous question on the finance
bill, which was agreed to. The bill was then
put on Its passage, and was carried BY vote
OF yeas l24 nays l6. After disposing OF
few minor bills the Senate currency bill was
reached. All objections were ovcrruled, and
the bill was put 90 its passage and carried by

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1874.

The civil rights bill as reported by the Sen
ate judiciary committee yesterday is an entire
substitute for the original bill OF Mr.. Sumner
Its understood that as reported 1t was APP
nroved of BY all the republican members of the
committee, the two democrats, Messrs. lhur,
man and Stevenson, only dissenting. One Of
the important differences between 1t and the
Sumner bill is that it does not apply to private
schools, private benevolent institutions and
private cemeteries and it would seem not tc
compel mixed common schools. The jury
clause is retained, though in different form
from that drafted by Mr.. Sumner. The las
section of the bill provides for appeals to the
Supreme Court. The extensive litigation thai
may follow from the passage of the act vii
add much to the business OF the courts.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1874-04-15

It is said that the testimony in the Sanborn
investigation, yesterday, puts the Secretary OF
the Treasury in a very awkward position. Mr..
Odell, Treasurer Of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Central Railroad, testified to sending a
check for 500 GS4 takes in arrears to the Sec
rotary of the Treasury. He had never seen or
heard of Sanborn or any of his agents in the
matter. A letter to the Secretary, bearing
date two days latter than the check, was pro-
duced by the committee, in which he speaks OF
this settlement, names the amount, and even
the number of Mr.. Odel's check, and claims
his moiety. These data must have been fur
nished him by some one iu the Treasury De-
partment. The inference Is irresistible that
there was collision between Sanborn and some
one of the Treasury officials.
