Porti Fourth Congressional Session.
SENATE.

SENATE.
WASHINGTON, Feb g.
The credentials Of S. j. iLirkwood from Iowa
were filed.
Mr.. Christiancy spoke in favor Of the bill re-
ported by the Judiciary committee and in oppo-
slton to that of the railroad committee
MIR. West made persSHal explanation in
relation tG the letter Of Gov. Wells of the Lou
lsla ia returning board. addressed to him. He
said that on hearing that it was before the
committee of the House he at once, with out
having been subp9naed OF invited, went to the
committee, where he opened and read the let
ter. He then desired to make an explanation
but was refused the privilege. Last fall he was
told by the Secretary of War that Maddox was
here endeavOring to sell the vote of louisiana
Telegraphing to New Orleans he was informed
that Maddox had no authority for such propo-
sltIon, and was an imposter.
At the expiration of the morning hour the
Senate resumed the consideration Of the bill to
amend the Pacific Railroad acts.
When ChrisLancy concluded his remarks in
regard to the Pacific Railroad sinking fluid bill
it was laid aside informally and the Senate
proceeded to consider bills on the calendar of a
private nature.
Bill approprIatng $780, for deficiency in
public printing was referred
HOUSE.
The House met at 10 add took a recess until
1.30 when several bils were introduced and
referred.
A resolution was introduced that business
the calendar be taken up on calendar days Just
as II the regular session was being held. Re-
ferred.
Senate amendments to the Fertilization and
Military Academy bill were non-concurred in
The House at so took recess until 10 to-
morrow.

renee that nothing is thought of it now. The
general conviction is that Justices Clifford and
Field will sustain Tilden, the former because
his Democracy is of the most ancient and ada
mantine type, and the latter because he once
professed to be Republican, and got his ap-
pointment from Lincoln on the strength of it,
and has since hated the party with all the
bitterness of an apostate. In short, the weight
of the decision rests on Justices Miller, Strong
and Bradley, and if either of them finds
serious flaw ia the title of Hayes, their political
prediction will not stand in the way of their
80 affirming. 1t is owing to Republican mag
nanimity that Mr.. Tilden is still competitor
for the Executive Seat; it will be owing to Re-
publican conscientiousness if he establishes his
right to fill it.
The President with his accustomed good
sense and practical craftsmanship, has called
upon Congress to make preparation for the re-
sumption of specie payment. 1 have no idea
that the recommendation will be needed. The
house as now constituted, is disas reeably OBJ.
structive. Its career has been marked by no
act OF legislation conducive to the public good
1t might redeem the time by devoting its little
remnant Of existence to the passage of bill to
fund the legal tenders, and thereby atone for
some of its past errors. just such a measure
Is necessary now to keep the country on the
track OF par redemption where it has been for
some time. Ii the legislative branch of the
government were as wise as the Executive SO
obvious measure of relief and resuscitation to
the business interests of the people would not
be delayed. The time for it Is opportune. the
need of it urgent. The widest nfationist does
not imagine now that further watering of the
currency would restore the fictitious values
that were quoted prior to the panic. The para
mount necessity of the hour is a stable inan-
oial system, which shall re-establish conf
dence, and set capital at work.
Beyond the actual necesssries of life thare is
nothing in the way of property that possesses

MEXICO.

City OF MEXICO, JAM 30.-The elections are
going in favor of Diaz. Charges of fraud are
freely made as in previous presidential cleo
lions. Daz is urged to hasten his return to the
capital as the government is in danger of fall
Ing to pieces owing to dissensions in the cabi-

who favored the Diaz revolution have failed
and new revolution against Diaz is encour-
aged by capitalists, who make money out of
the reVolutionists at excessive interest.
