To these who are familiar with the present
condition Of business before Congress the
motion OF Mr.. Morrison for an adjournment
row regarded as certain that q serious disa-
greement between the two Houses on the
important appropriation bills Is inevitable,
and that In consequence OF this the session
VIII be unusually protrscted. Most of the
bills In question have not yet passed, and
among these are the legislative, executive
and judicial, the consular and diplomatic.
and the sundry civil appropriation bills.
There Is no prospect Of an agreement on the
consular and diplomatic bill, which cuts
down the compensation Of first class foreign
missions from s1T 500 to sI4, 500, and makes
q corresponding reduction in the present
paltry compensation Of consuls. The Senate
has absolutely refused TO concur In these
reductions, and proposes TO insist on the
usual allowances. The legislative bill passed
by the House, which proposes TO cut down
the salaries OF all government employees who
receive more than 81 200 per annum, ten per
cent, and TO reduce the number OF employees
twenty per cent, Is now before the Senate
Committee on Appropriations. which will
recommend nom concurrence with the House
In almost every particular. The sundry
civil bill, not Jet reported TO the House, will
doubtless make sweeping reductions In
which there Ii no good reason 70 believe the
Serate viii concur. IL would therefore
feem that one House or the other must re-
cede from Its position, II an adjournment Ii
10 be had before July I.

In rather dogmatic way that the action Of
the starter In the race between Bbu0oo and
Potodin, on Friday, which was adversely
criticised by all the newspaper reporters and
by dearly all the spectators present, was
unanimously sustained by the judges. This
settles the matter officially, we suppose; but
the question row is, who endorses the
judges? The declaration OF two dead heats

The bill that passed the Senate on Sat-
urday directing the Secretary of the Treasu-
~ to pay TO @. b. Tyler and E. h. Luckett
s16i wrongfully collected by an internal
revenue agent, will be, when 1t passes the
House, the first measure passed by Congress
over the veto OF President Grant. Nospe-
cial significance should be attached to the
matter, however, since the veto message was
based on the report of the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue that there was no evidence to show
that the sum named had been wrongfully
collected from the claimants. The Commit
tee on Claims took different view, holding
that the Presidents action was based on q
misapprehensiOn of facts, and the Senate in
dorsed the report by unanimous vote. Mr..
McCreery, of Kentucky, fathered the bill,
and seems to have convinced the Senate that
the measure was q righteous one and ought
to pass Notwithstanding the veto
The leading citizens who organized the
National Jockey Club and carried out the
late meeting with such success, despite all
obstacles of bad weather and scant time for
prepai alton, may fairly be credited with
having demonstrated the feasibility of MAIN
talping first class running races at the ma
tionsl capital. With the added attractions
OF the fall meeting, the very large, brilliant
and distinguished attend Al &c OF lest week q
races, will not only be kept up, but very
much Increased undoubtedly.
