WAs1fxaroN, April 22.-The House passed the
River and H.rlor Bnl to-day without WoFd Oh
consideration, tie vote being 1877 in the affirmative
to G6 in the negative.
rhis bi,l has b-e1 fearfully and wonderfully con-
sructcl. Little attention seems to have Deeh palo
20 the actual needs of the several localities to he
benefited by il; bu5 appropriations have been
granted in such a way as to command the most
votes.
Mrs Cox appeared as the chief opponent OF
the hill and with one or two other Representatives
whose districts were left out when the bill was ar
ranged. succeeded in getting IN one or two dila-
tory motions After the vote had been an
nouuced M Cox undertook TO have
protest which had been prepared and
signed by the minority in the House who voted
against the bill spread upon the journal. The
sccnc winch followed the introduction OF TINS was
one of the most dsorderly and dsgraceful that has
been witnessed in this Congress. A hundred men
were on their feet at once, and all shouting al the
ton of their voices. The Speaker was powerless 70
preserve order and motion to adjourn was tnaHy
carried in the greatest confusion.
Mr. Cox based his demand to have the objections
of the minority spread upon the journal, upon the
proceedings which took place in the House Of Rep
resantaiyes on Monday, March 4, 1867, before the
body was fully organized. Mr.. Brooks, of New
York, introduced a protest setting forth that
whereas seventeen States were not repre-
septcd upon the floor Of the House, 1--WE,
The members elect of the Nth Congress,
DO now enter our most solemn protest against
any and every action tending to the organization OF
this House until the absent States be more fully
represented" This protest was signed by MI
Brooks and by thirty other Democrats. He de-
manded that this should be entered upon the jour
nal as the protest of the minority of the House. The
Clerk, Mr.. Mcpherson. declined to entertain the
paper on the ground that the law authorized HIM to
make up the roll and that nothing was in order I'M
til the House was organized.
Tomorrow Mr. Cox will base his demand upon
protest which was made in the first session of the
XXXVIth Congress during the contest over the cleo
ton of Speaker, when Henry Clay and about forty
Others declared that for the purpose of preventing
renewal of sectional controversy the subject of
slavery, "they would not support for the Office
of President or Nice-President, or OF Senator
or of Representative in Congress, or as a menl-
Der of q State Legislature any man, OF
whatever party, who was not known TO be opposed
to the disturbance of the settlement aforesaid ire
ferring TO the resolution passed by the AAAlst
COngress, and TO the renewal in any form Of aglta
ton upon the subject of slavery This protest was
signed by Henry CLAW Howell Cobb Henry =
ert TO0mbs, William NJ. Gwynn. Humphrey Marshall,
and Others. This protest was spread upon the
journal, and is the precedent upon which Mr.. Cox
will rely tomorrow.

HIS PLAN SUBSTANTIALLY ACCEPTED.
SOME INTRICATE DETAILS TO BE sETTLED-rHE
ARMoRIEs MEANWHILE KEPT BUSY IN RUSSIA
AND ENGLAND.
Prince Bismarcks proposal that Russia and
England should withdraw their forces from
the neighbOrhOOd of Constantinople, has been
accepted in principle but there may be some
difficulty in carrying it out, owing to the
mutual distrust of the two Powers, each of
which is afraid that the other may
act unfairly, if not treacherOusly. The
British military and naval departments
arc busily engaged preparing for hostilities.
The Russian naval authorities are likewise
taking steps to increase the efficiency Of the
Baltic fleet, and prepare it for sea.
1t is reported at Constantinople that $4,000
Mohammcdans have taken up arms in the
Balkan districts, and attacked the Russians.
The Bulgarians, on the other hand, have
committed great outrages in MuSsulman
villages.

AVOID ATTENTION VERY NUMEROUS.

AVOID ATTENTION. VERY NUMEROUS.
icy TELEGRAPH To THE TEiBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, April 22.-Thc list of Southern
claims published recently by The TRIBUNE was in
complete in one respect. II included only those
claims for which bills had been introduced. 1t IL not
necessary to introduce n bill IN orfer II bring
claim to the attention of Congress, and many OF the
older and more experienced members present such
matters in q quetcr though equally effective way.
This is accomplished by the introduction of peti-
tons under the rules which are simply journalized
and sent to the committee without being printed.
There they have the same standing as though bills
for the same purpose had been introduced. An eX-
animation of the docket of the War Claims Cum
mittcc shows that comparatively small! number
of the claims upon which that committee Is
called upon to act are represented by bills.
