No Blockade of appropriations.

\ Washington special to the Tribune
of Friday says:
The House of Representatives will
proceed as rapidly as possible with the
regular appropriation bills, and make an
honest effort TO pass them all before the
It'll of next March, no matter how much
political excitement there may be in the
mean time. IL is not seriously contem-
plated to refuse TO make appropriations
until it is determined who is TO be inaug-
urated President. The democratic lea
ders Of the House say that either Hayes
or Tilden will be President and they rec
ognize the fact that they have no right in
either event to cripple the government by
Withholding the necessary funds to keep
It's machinery in motion.
In accordance with this policy the diff
ferent bills were to-day assigned TO the
several members Of the appropriation
Committee in order that they may be re-
ported at the earliest possible day. In
the House several hours Of good honest
work were put in on the post Office bill.
This bill i constructed substantially Oh
the basis of last sessions appropriations,
with some unimportant reductions, OF
course. This does not give the Post-Of:
fee Department as much money as it
asked for by nearly three millions, but il
leaves the service substantially as it now

On Friday last His Honor Judge
Peters sent an order for the release of
Robbins, known as the annie b. Muir
derer," from the Insane asylum at Angus
ia, where he has been kept for nearly two
and half years, the Jury at the time of
his trial believing him insane when he
committed the murder. Judge Peters
gave the order on the ground thai the man
is not now insane, and should his symp-
toms hereafter Indicate 4 return OF the
malady any Judge of the court can order
his return. Thus it is that one OF the
most cold blooded, desperate, inhuman
murders, in this or any other land goes
unwhipt of justice. 1t is yet possible that
England will take jurisdiction Of the case,
as the murders were committed under her
flag, and demand his extradi;ion. -Senti-

IMPEACHMENT TRIALS ENDED.

E. A Bennett, auditor of West Virginia,
was on Tuesday acquitted of articles of inn
parchment preferred against him by the Leg
islsture during the past session. The vote on
the third article came within one of having
the required two>tLirds, standing guilty Is,
not guilty 9. Thus has ended the last of the
two impeachment trials, and the Democratic
party of West Virginia to-day stands credited
with having done what the Republican party
of this State, when in power, never dared to
do-hsld Its officers to strict accountability,
without reference to party favoritism or per-
sopal preference. In this connection it may
also be said to the credit of the representative
from this county who delivered an exhaustive
speech on the subject in tho House of Dele
gates, (Janes n. Mason, Esq.,) that the
finding in the two trials was 10 accordance
with what WAS advocated by him at that
time-the conviction of the Treasurer and
