CONGRESS

The following proceedings of Congress yes
terdav are additional to those published in the
Gazette of that day:
Ia the Senate Mr.. Sherman called up the
resolutions of the New York Chamber OF Com
merce relating to the finances, the pending
motion being to refer them to the Finance
Committee. He at great length deprecated any
repeal of the specie resumption act, and said
that this was the proper time to prepare for
resumption. He stated that the balance OF
trade was in our favor, our exports exceeding
the amount of imports for the last seven
months by over $53.0OO,00O. Mr.. Bogy
spoke 10 favor Of his proposition for the pay.
ment Of duties on imports in national bauk
notes.
Ia the House resolution introduced by Mr..
Randall was passed declaring the immunity OF
witnesses for the United States from arrest
after being subj e aaed or after testifying, and
from being molested for matters disclosed in
their testimony. A message from the Senate
announced that on the presentation of articles
of impeachment against the late Secretary of
War the Senate would take proper order
thereon. The House proceeded to consider the
Hawaiian treaty, and Mr.. Wood finished bis
speech in favor of its passage. Mr.. Burchard,
of Illinois, followed on the same side, and
Messrs. Morrison, Mills and Kelley opposed it.
Mr.. Banning, of Ohio, objected to a remark
made by his colleague, MIR. Woodwork, who
had asserted that the bill giving bouuties to
the heirs of soldiers who had enlisted for less
.hau one year had been pigeon hoed by the
Committee CD Military Affairs He said, on the
contrary, that it had been referred to SUBJ
committee Two days after it had been printed.
MIR. Banning went on to say that similar bill
was passed by the last Congress and vetoed bv
General Grant-a man who owed his name and
fame to the soldiers-st time, too when his
War Secretary was tattening and growing rich
out OF the profits made by post-traders from
The pay of private soldiers. Mr.. Woodwork
replied to this, denying that President Grant
had vetoed such bill, and said that the Chair
man of the Military Committee ought to have
known that the bill failed in the conference
committees of the two Houses. A resolution
was passed for the appointment Of a special
committee to inquire whether aoy officer or
employee of the Government had iutertered 10
the recent whiskey trials for conspiracy by the
disclosure of the course TO be taken by the
prosecution.

The Coal TRADE.-The various coal ageD-
cies 10 Georgetown are making preparations for
the opening of the coal trade, the season being
about TO open. Instructions have been issued
to superinteDdeDts Of the several divisions of
the canal 10 have that highway open for traffic
by the 10th inst, aod it is being put in excel
leot condition tor treightng. The new Quiet
lock will il is thought, be 10 working order iu 9
few weeks; and boatmen are very tavorably dis
posed towards the improvement, as by using it
they can be promptly locked into the Potomac
without the tedious delay that was sometimes
unavoidable, on account OF the blocking up Of
the canal by the number Of boats unlocked at
the same time. By using the outlet lock boats
can now come direct to Alexandria by the river,
instead OF the aqueduot and canal, as formerly.
1t is not expected that boating will be-!uly re;
sumed before the LIST proximo. .E !

DON,T WAIT FOR THE COM
MITIEE.

Our Cornucopia correspondent says
they are anxiously awaiting the arrival
of the committee appointed here to To-
cate the site of the bridge. He also
saws that if time is given, there will be
several responsible bidders from Cor
nucopia. The Secretary of the Com
mittee has advertised for bids to build
the bridge. The specifications require
that it shall be substantial, capable of
supporting heavily loaded freight waG-
ons, and built at point accessible for
teams going to and from Cornucopla.
Now if bidders are anxious TO get the
lob, let them select site on the Owy-
hse river, having the necessary require
ments, make their estimates, and send
their proposals to the Secretary. N.
Defiance, Winncmucca, Nevada. Don't
wait for the arrival of the committee,
but examine the ground and send in
your proposals at once.

failing to recommend to the Legislature
the enfranchisement of the loyal

violated his pledge publicly given on

A ROW IN THE CABINET.

Advises from Washington say that
there has been row in the Cabinet.
For some time past there has been
trouble brewing between the President
and Secretary Bristow, and it has
finally eliminated in an open rup-
ture. At recent Cabinet meeting
Bristow found himself opposed BY ev-
cry member of Grants official family,
and he left the meeting in disgust.
Bristow has been very active in I'M
sarthing the whisky frauds, and pros
ecuting those engaged in them. Part
ly through his instrumentality the
st. Louis whisky ring has been broken
up, and some of its most prominent
members convicted. lie insisted on
having able Democratic lawyers en-
gagged as counsel for the Government
in the whisky trials. These men have
shown no favors to tie scoundrelly rev
erue officials, through whose comm
vance the crooked distillers were per-
mitted to carry on their business uL-
molssted, and swindle the revenue OF
millions of dollars. BY their manage
Joyce, Mckee and others were on
victed and Babcock brought to trial.
This, reports from Washington say has
incensed the President, who since the
conviction of Mckee, and the certainty
of Babcock's being brought to trial,
has been in bad humor. While
in this norose mood the row oc-
Cured in the Cabinet meeting, a war
of words ensued, and unless amnesty.
based on the acquittal of Babcock, is
proclaimed, Bristow's resignation will
be demanded.

EASTERN DISPATCHES



WARRINGTON, Feb. IL, 1876.
Certain New York and Philadelphia
papers and others still further west,
have been publishing flaming sensa-
tional reports of renewed troubles in
the Cabinet. A detailed and exciting
broadside appears in New York paper
this morning purporting to narrate sue
cinctly the genesis of the enlargement
between Grant, Pierrepont and Bristow
The statement is made up of the tele
grams and official papers which have
appeared almost simultaneously with
their issue in the Times. To make
the narrative coherent, however, sew
eral of these dispatches are related,
notably that of the Attorney General
to the different District Attorneys,
which appeared in the Times ten days
ago, the day after it was issued from
the Attorney Generals office. Stories
similar in character, but not so circum-
stantial in detail or so sklllfully
grouped as this, have been sent in all
directions for the same effect.
