resolution at once. 1t was read. and on
| motion of Senator Chadbourn, adopted.
Senator Blunt then moved q reconsidera-
tion OF the vote by which the resolution
was adopted.
This motion was sustained by Senator
Burch in some we'll timed and fOrcible
remarks going to show the improperly OF
such action upon the part of the
Senate at time when the matter was
already in process of judicial investigation.
He said if this was not the case he would
be disposed to favor an investigation of the
charges by the Senate but as the matter
had already gone before the courts, he
was in favor of letting it be deter
mined there He thought the Senator
from Concordia would be able to pass
honorably through the trial before him, and
he was not disposed to condemn him until
he had been trie and convicted of the
charges preferred against him. If those
charges had been trumped up by political
enemies, he did not think it would be con.
sidered becoming in the Senate to notice
them; and for that reason he was in favor of
reconsidering the vote by which the resolu
ton passed.
The motion to reconsider was then put
and passed, and the resolution, on further
motion. tabled.
Senator Wharton moved for suspension
of the rules in order to take up the bill
cutting off the Auditors fees, but it being
late the Senate refused to adopt the Sena-
tors motion, and adjourned until Monday
(to-morrow), at 12 NJ.
House of Representatives.
The House met at the usual hour yeater-
day, with Speaker Hahn in the chair. Not
enough members responded at roll call to
constitute quorum, and after sitting till
about one o'clock, motion was made and
carried to adjourn until Monday at twelve
o'clock.
In accordance with resolu tion adopted
some days since the House will have q
morning and evening session from and after
Monday.

Spring Trade.

Some of our merchants have been
receiving new goods during the last
few days. Do they suppose they will
ever sell them, unless they advertise
and let the world know what they
have on hand? There seems to be a
general feeling that business will re-
vive, and a good spring trade may
be looked for. Congress has ad-
journed, and the currency and the
revenue laws will remain unchanged
for some months, at least. Business
men can now make some more GER
tain calculations as to the future of
trade and finance. The New York
Post says:
'sThe recent turn, both in prices
and in the general feeling, is due to
several causes, among which is prom
inent the adjournment of Congress
on Thursday. This, it is believed,
will have a good effect on general
trade, as all uncertainties in regard
to the tariff and taxation will be re-
moved. Trade has thus far been in
jured by the severe weather, but the
weatherwise Calm that an early
spring always follows a severe win
ter. However certain this may be, it
is certain that with good weather bu-
siness will be enlivened, and there
is every reason to believe that we
shall have q good healthy, sound
trade. No one expects that it will
raise to the large proportions Of a
speculative business, but it is thought
that it will be larger than in any sea
son since the panic. Whatever bust
ness is done it may be calculated will
be on safe basis, as merchants are
exercising the same care in regard to
credits that they have since the pan
ic. No one now buys more goods
than there is a ready market for, and
business is kept in close accord with
the absolute wants for consumption,
and this is as it always should be.
With business always confined to
these limits there could be no panic
for panic is but the collapse which
follows a period of overtrading and
general expansion. Liquidation has
been forced on all sides, and yet
there have been but few more failures
than in ordinary times. Prices nov
are in many cases down to golC
figures; labor is cheaper than fol
many years. Even real estate, th'
last class of property to be affected
has had its fall. Railroad companies
which have suffered are in process o
reorganization. We have had tn
crash, and the indications on al
sides are of repair and re-establish
ment. The improvement may b
slower than wished, but it is no les
sure for being slow

Nvice-President Wilson and
the Bounty Bill.

Vice-President Wilson has written
a letter defending his vote in favor
of the Bounty Bill of the last Con
gress, which failed to become a law
for want of the Presidents signature.
Mr.. Wilson says that the amount
the law would have taken from the
treasury could not have exceeded
that required for the payment of
bounties under the law of 1866, which
was about S62,5OO,OOO. He says
the calculations made by some jour
nails that it would require from 100
to 300 millions, were entirely wild
and unreliable. Again, he says the
law was so well guarded that sol
diers could not have sold their claims
to claim agents, nor could claim
agents have bought them. He
thinks the measure was justly due
that large class of soldiers who en-
listed during the first three years oi
the war, and received but S100 boun
ty, while those who enlisted during
the last year got not only larger
bounty, but also increased pay.

A WORLDS PEACE CoNGREss-In q
carefully prepared statistical paper
on the Errors Of Modern CiciIiza-
ton, the Republic Magazine for
April, published at Washington shows
that the Great Powers are carrying
larger armies to-day than at any for
mer period in the worlds history.
It is also shown that as direct re-
suit of war and standing armies M
tional indebtedness has increased far
beyond that of any former period
Ten Governments, namely: France,
Great Britain, United States, Italy,
Spain, Austria, Russia, Germany,
Turkey and India, owe twenty thou
sand million dollars, an amount
which. to be transported in golt
from New York to London, woulC
require a vessel to make over thirty
VOYAGES across the Atlantic, carrying
one thousand tons of gold at eacl
trip. And this enormous debt-bur
den has been increased ten per cent
in the last two years.
In view of these facts, aud in OF
der to reach and strike at the foun
tain head, The Republic urges
general movement among the ms
tions for the suppression of the wa
spirit and the inauguration OF Inter
national Peace Policy, and suggest
the assembling of Worlds Peac
J Congress in Washington in jun
1876. There appears to be no insul
cradle barrier to such a movemen
9, and if once inaugurated and carrie
out in good faith, the result eoul
: not fail of permanent benefit to tt
, entire world, in the advancemel
g toward a higher and happier clvl
zation.

ticket in Cincinnati is largely attrib-

whereby innocent persons were ar.

encouraged. Such an unwarranta
BILE use of the police force, and suef
disgraceful mockery of preserving

after commencing q term of school
he could pick out the scholars whose

The Ironton Commercial, speak
ing of the proposed Scioto Valley
railroad, says:
We have before pointed out that
the quickest, easiest and cheapest
way to secure such q connection
seemed to be directly down the Ohio
river to Portsmouth. That feeling
is intensified by the movement
which promises much to be q success
to build the Michigan and Ohio road
striking the river at that point. IL
connect that road with the G. & o. r
R. at Huntington would seem very
desirable, and Ironton may find he
best opportunity, in fostering such
desire, and creating it, if it should
not already exist.
