CONGRESS-.

CONGRESS.
| WASHINGTON, d. c., May II, lS76.-The
Senate was engaged 10 the consideration OF
memorials until 1890 when the Court OF Iu1-
parchment was begun, and the doors closed
HOUSE OF REPRES ENTATIyEs.
ln the House OF r. representatives., after the
the reading of the Journal several bills and
RESOLUTIONS, for reference, were introduced
Among them,
Bills 10 reduce The rank and Gle OF the Navy,
and also Of the Maribe corps.
Resolution, 10 reference to the compeDsa-
ton OF railroads. for the transportation OF the
mails; and,
\ bill making appropriations for claims al
lowed by the Court of Claims.
The House thcO went into Committee of
the Whole on the Postof1ice Appropriation
bill.
TIE DOORKEEpER.
Action in reference to the Doorkceper of the
House is delayed, and rcactionary feeling has
already set in, So that it is not now certain
that MIR. Fllzhugh will be removed. The
Committee on Rules did DOT have a meeting
to-day there being no quorum present, aud
the aspirants for the position were disappolut
ed at the delay. The publication Of the let
ter is considered so base that the offence Of
having written it is not considered as hcinous
as the betrayal.
Among those who are reported as ca1di
dates, should Mr.. Firzhugh be removed is
COL j. W. Fairfax, Of L,udoun county, Va.
MR.. BLAINE
Gen. lluDton's Committee Of Investigation
into the affairs of the Pacific Railroad, il
which Mr.. Blaine is charged with completely,
had another meeting TO day, but, in the ab-
SERGE Of Mr.. b., who is still! sick, the test
money tak,n was only Of a general character
aud lot interesting, or sensational.
VIRGINIA $ POSITION.
There is much curiosity expressed here rs TO
the course to be pursued by the Richmond
Convention in reference to the Democratic
nominee for President. Several Of the mem
bcrs from Virginia will attend, but without any
intention orinterIerlng or giving expression to
their preferences, which may be summed up
to Ego for the winning man.
