WAsHTNGToS, Dee. lG.-The Senate refused
yesterday to consider Senator Buffers resolu-
tion for an investigation into hs alleged bar
gain with Paterson, put forwaru on newspaper
hearsay by Mr.. Edmunds. The resolution also
proposed to inquire into charges put forward
by Democrats that Messrs. Elmunds. Spencer.
Dorsey. and one or two other senators were
engaged in a conspiracy to force Patterson to
vote against Buffers adm lssion. II seems that
Butler met Mr.. Ingalls, before calling up this
resolution for nm investigation and told him OF
the extended 'ope he Intended To give IT,. Mr.
ingalls, warmly advised him to consult with his
party friends before he did so. ~ this charge OF
a conspiracy was without foundation, and But
lar rctorted that Il was IA true as the charge
agains, himself Whom the resolution came, up
for passage tho Republicans, headed by Mr.
Cameron Of Wi- onsin, refused TO permit its
consideration. and Mr.. Butler and his friends
feel disposed to regard this ~ n substantial re-
ira ,ion of the charges nude against him in the
heat Of the contc-' over his admission. II il
understood that unless some further refeIrnce
is made to THIS matter by Republicans aud the

LONDON, Dec lG.-A Constantinople des-
patch says that several Of the powers have al
rcady acknowledged tho receipt OF the Porte's
circular. The tone OF Italy's reply s very con-
cil!atory and friendly. II says Italy will en-
dsavor to have steps taken in concert with the
othsr powers for tho purpose Of Offering media
tion.
Mr.. Layard the British Ambassador, denies
that he has sounded the Porte as to the condi-
tlons Of peace it would be willing to accept
The London Observer says that It has reason
to believe the Turkish circular was despatched
at the instance Of England.
The Scotsmdp's London correspondent says
It is understood that the English Government
does not wish to act without tho concurrence OF
the other powers. It ia most anxious to avoid
complications which might lead to unpleasant
ness with Russia.
A despatch from Constantlnopie via syra.
says it ia reported that England has sounded
Russia IA to conditions OF peace. The Porte.
