Alta caucus Of the Republican members
Of the National House Of Representatives,
TUESDAY evening, it was decided that the
Civil Rights Bill. which was referred to
the Judiciary committee in the carly part Oh
the present session, should be reported back
Wednesday. and that it should be kept be
tore the House anti decisive action coaI be
had upon il. Accordingly, directly upon
the concluSi,n. of the reading of the journal.
Wednesday. zen. Butler as the spokesman
Of the Republican caucus. moved to proceed
with the Civil Rights Bill The Democrats
Immediately commenced to flibustcr. and as
under the existing rule (which some Eepah-
licans attempted to change, Monday, bat
flilcd) hrty-cisht members can, by dilatory
motions, stop the business Of tie House
indefinitely. legislation was practically sus-
pended lv the factious course of the oppo-
nents of the h;il. The House has been in
session continuously since Wednesday morn
log, and during this time the roll has been
called no les than forty times. The Repab-
lican member. however, are reported as firm
in their Determination to &c sit it ont, and
hope 10y Monday, to get two-thirdS vote
Ter the bill
In ithi, connection it /, to be noted TINT
the distinctive feature of the rev Civil
Rights Bill, rs compared with former bills,
having TIE same general object in view, is
that il docs not impose mixed schools upon
every community, but. contains the following
provision " II any State or its authorities
having control Of common schools or other
public institutions Of learning shall estab-
fish and maintain separate schools or insti-
tutiors, giving equal educational faabhss in
all respects to all classes entitled thereto,
such school, shall he in compliance with
the provisions of this bill" In the all
important matter of education, therefore,
the bill simply guarantees and secures the
equal rights Of al citizens. 1t is bill the Re-
publican party should stand or fall by, and
we trust the present Congress viii partially
redeem Itself by making it the law Of the
land

this oae subject, the Democrats apparently
fearing that an attempt will soon be made
TO introduce political legislation. 1t is not
easy to see how any can be crowded

be avoided. for it will require nearly all the
time left to consider the regular appropria-

bill now before the House, if passed. can

! committee of the Massachusetts Logis
lature has been investigating the way in
which the county tTeasurers, trial justices, "
clerks OF the county and police courts,

practice. They report that more than half

Many trial justices have failed TO pay over
to the county treasursrs the unclaimed fees
of witnesses and officers remaining in their
hands. Others have been found Gelin-
auents in their returns Of fines. Fees IN
excess of the law are almost universally
charged. generally for small amounts and
IN ignorance OF the law, sometimes IN large
amounts and with the manifest intenti0n 10
extort money from the simple and helpless.

Congress adjourned at 10 O'Clock, Friday
morning after continuous session Of nearly
so hours. The correspondents are agreed
in representing the struggle IS extremely
dlll and uninterestiDg, with no funny cpl
sodes or exciting passages. even Gen. Butler

life being strictly decorous and prosy OF the
s,ene in the Representative chamber, Thurs
day afternoon. 4 correspondent says "The
unswept carpet was Strewn with newspapers

sent, not more than third were in their
seats, and these men stretched their tired
bodies into every conceivable position, while
loud yawns resonnded through the hall at
intervals from the Threats Of the unfortunates
who had not had a wink Of sleep for nearly
80 hours Tie half-dozen sofas around the
edges OF the hall we're occupied by recumbent
forms of apparently sleeping members. The
air of the hall was foul and filthy, the mem
hers having INDUCED freely in cigars during
the nigh, aud forenoon, and the air outside
WIS warm and mucgy. which interfered
with the ventilation" The session reached
lame and impoient conclusion, an adjourn
ment being finally carried without a vote or
the Civil Rights Bill. In other words fifty
hour of valuable time were wasted by the
factions conduct Of some forty-fve Demo
Gratis. In view of this fact a new rule Of
the House has been proposed and debated
among leading Republicans. 1t provides
that when any question is lending before
the House there shall be but two dilatory
motions entertained, one to adjourn and one
fixing the time to which it shall adjourn.
But the previous question is not to be sec
onded on the same day that proposition is
introduced or reported, unless by majority
Of three-fourths. In other words, the new
rule Is designated to prevent flibustering,
while at the same time it furnishes additional
guard to the minority.

4 Mex Orleans despatch says thai a com
promise Of the present legislative difficulties
in Louisiana j. Icing vigorously advocated
by the p-rtisans Of Governor Kellogg. Their
proposition is to let the Wilt party come
back with ffty-threc members, their side
also 10 lave ifty-thrce members with Witt
in tie chair. They p so far as to say that
the conservatives might scat again tile
five elected members if they would give
sufficient guarantees That they would TOT
attempt any revolutionary acts and would
recognize the present Senate, communicate
with Gov. Kellogg and not attempt to dis
turb BIN in his place. Such an arrange
ment If carried into eifect-of which there
is much d1ubt-wopll be merely 4 truce,
not permanent peace. and in the end We
fear that the unhappy State would be no
better OF than AZ present. mother plan.
of perhaps q more promising character, is
to refer the whole subject to the Congress
sional committee Of investigation on Louisi-
ana affairs - judges and arbitrators. Bat
it Is at on e evident that their decision in
that capacity coald not lomade binding on
the parties at issue, and the defeated side,
from whatwe know Of Louisiana politicians,
would certainly demand another arbi5ra-
ment In the meanwhile the Senate com
mittee on privileges and elections have de
cidei that kellogg's administration should
be recognized As the legal government Of
Louisiana, and it is TO be hoped that Con
gress viii take some decisive action on the
subject before the close of the session.
