ury and when it had lost credit at home
and abroad. 1t was when the Republi-
cans received the government from Bu'
chanan's administration. In conclusion
he declared the bill struch st American
commerce and at American honor;
that it was unworthy OF the
House. The Government was not bank
rupt and he appealed TO the other side OF
the house not to write across the fair fore
head of the country the word shame.
He said he should not have differed with
the Committee, if it had confined itself
TO the reduction of the European mis-
sion, even IL it had wiped out the mis-
sion whose very name was a scandal.
(Alluding to the English mission,) He
should have telt that then
a patriotic American might visit foreign
lands with greater satisfaction, and might
escape that humiliation which once fel
would not "down" until the cause was
removed. At the same time he dissented
from the reduction of the salaries of our
ministers abroad, and also from the pro
posed reduction of consulstes. The
United States was the only country whose
consular system was self-supportiug, and
American merchants might well demand
that the money actually collected from
them in consular bills should be- TO the
last dollar, expended in protecting and
extending their business.
Mr.. Wood of New York reviewed the
consulate system and spoke IN opposi-
ton to the recommendations of the Com
mit,ee on Appropriations and said touch
ing theques!ion Of C onsulstes it should be
a work OF great care and OF great delib-
Grafton and of careful examination, not
only in the.question of dollars and cents
involved, but in references to conse-
quences following tie withdrawal tfcon-
sulates to foreign missions. He regard
ed them. as secondary to the con-
,ular system and did not
attach so much importance to the
necessity of keeping them up, but as long
as they were kept up American Ministers
abroad should be paid enough to enable
them 70 live respectfully, as foreign coun-
tries understand it, and to MAINTAIN
their representative character. The COM
mittee rose without action on the bill
when message was received from the
Senate announcing the action OF that
BODY in regard to the death of the late
Senator Ferry. EuIogies in his honor
were pronounced by Messrs. Phelps,
Seelye and Garfield. An interesting
feature in the proceedings was the fact
that Mr.. Garfield, in lieu of any remarks
of his own, read speech prepared on
the subject by Mr.. Stsrkweather, himself
dead.
At the close of the eulogies the House
adjourned.
