YESTERDAY Representative kENNA
introduced into the House a JOINT resolu.
ton declaring in favor of the repeal OF
the resumption act and the remonetlza-
ton of silver. Just what object is to be
subserved does not appear on the face of
the proceeding.

sUBsIDIEs In CONGRESS.

The House passed yesterday, by vote
of l47 ayes TO So noes an anti-subsidy
resolution, similar TO the HOLMAN reso-
luton which was passed by the first sea-
sion of the preceding House, soon after
the election of Speaker KERR. This reso-
luton declares that
ain the Judgment of this House no
subsidies in money, bonds, public lands,
endorsements, or by pledge OF pubic
credit, should be granted or renewed by
Congress, to associations or corporations
engaged in or proposing engaging IN
public or private enterprises, but all aP-
preparations ought to be limited to SUCH
amount ard purposes only as shall DC
imperatively demanded by public serv-
ice."
This is q pretty sweeping resolution on
the subject, too much SO, it would SEEM
to command the support of the West
Virginia members, for we find all three
-KENNA, MARTIN and WILsoN-re re-
corded among the mas. We presume
they construed this as striking at the
Great Kanawha Improvement, as well
as the proposed improvement of Elk
Sandy, Little Ksnswha, Monongaha
&c. They could not very well vote toi
this resolution, and, in the face OF that
vote, ask for OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
for the improvement of their OWL
rivers. That would be too much like the
man who was ain favor of a temperance
law but agin its enforcement"
Our members evidently think 1t better
to discriminate among the subjects rather
than denounce sll subsidies. There Ii
reason in that view, we confess.

GOLD strong and higher, say our finan-
cisl dispatches. And the New York
Epcning Post, of last evening, says mer-
chants and bankers are buying up and
boarding ell the gold they can get hold
of, to facilitate resumption, says this jour-
nall Hoarding, to compel the govern
ment TO pay big premium for it when
il must be had in order to carry out the
provisions of the resumption act. That
seems more reasonable.

The aspect Of affairs in Europe is more peaceful,

there is good demand fos the four per cents,

THIRD WARD CoLoRED REpUBLICANs-A
meeting of dissatisfied oolored republicans OF
the Third Ward was held at the house of Cbss
Jackson, who occupied the chair, with s. G.
Dundas, secretary, this morning.
The following preamble snd resolutions were
adopted -
Whereas We, the dissatisfied colored repub
licaus Of the Third Ward, about fifty 10 mum.
Der, feel that We cannot support the candidate
of the Workingmen's party for the Office OF Su
perinterdeut of Police; therefore,
Resolved, That we propose to support Mr..
G.. w. Clifford, the nominee of the conserva-
live party, 10 preference to the workingmen's
candidate.
Resolved, That we do propose to support all
of the workiDgmen's ticket, except their can
didate for the Office named, aud We ask that
all right thinking colored voters Of the CITY will
unite with US 10 supporting Mr.. G. ". Gilt.
ford
Several colored voters from other wards were
present. and expressed their satisfaction at the
proceedings Of the meeting.
THE CAp1rAT1oN TAx.-It is important that
voters should know that they will be required
to show their State tax receipts at the polls on
next Thursday. The preparation OF list, as
was done last year, was found SO onerous aud
unsatisfactory, that none will be attempted
this year. The tax books are not made out 10
wards, and consequently, four complete lists of
the whole city would have to be made out, in'
voIviog labor which no one is willing to un,
dertake. and for which there is no provision OF
law. The City Treasurer's Office is kept open
until 10 O'Clock every night and all, who have
lost or misaid their receipts, can secure dupll'
cates on application.
Police ITEMS. The following cas,s have
been tried since yesterday, by Justios Thomp.
BON:
Harry Carter, colored. for abusing colored
woman, was Gaed and in default, sent to the
chsio gang.
John Colsor, alias Mumps, coored, for being
druok and disorderly on the streets, was sent
to the chain gang, in default of payment OF
foe and costs.
