Garibaldl's Views,

London, April 15.-In letter of
Gen. Garibaldi, in favor of universal
suffrage and convoking meeting of
republicans for the 21st inst, to take
measures for the agitation of the SUBJ
ject, he says he considers it,the duty of
the republican party to rally all its
forces in the field of legal action to Sc
cure progressively that liberty which is
their undoubted right, but which now
depends on the whim Of minister or
the programme of the ministry. Uni
versal suffrage is the basis of reform.
The people to whom it is denied were
considered capable OF founding Italy
with their arms. Even the presence of
the clericals in parliament would be de-
sirable, II it would dispel the langor
which now renders it impotent.

Refunding of the Ten Forties.
New York, April 15.-It is learned
that J. Pierrepont Morgan, of the
banking house of Drexel, Morgan &
Co., and Charles Louier, of the Third
national bank, have gone to Europe for
the purpose of forming new syndicate
for refunding the 1O:40 loan into per
cents. These gentleman are said to
represent syndicate who are willing
to subscribe at once for $50, ,000, 900 of
4per cents, and pay for the same within
ninety days at par and interest, less one
eighth of one per cent. commission, and
to continue subscriptions at the rate of
$40, ZOO, 900 per month until the whole
10-40 loan has been called in. There is
an impression in government bond cir
cles whether the above proposition, or
one similar, will be accepted.

The Press on Rlsine,s Speech.

New York, April l5.-Speaking Of
Blaine's speech, yesterdays Times says:
His entire speech was a valuable con-
tribution to the republican side of the
discussion, to which ii requires no little
ingenuity to add anything new or
striking.
Blaine's speech and Garfield's recent
speech in the house will stand together
as the ablest exposition that has been
made, or are likely to be made, of the
republican view of free election contro-
versy. Blaine's speech is more vivid
and thrilling of the two, and he must
have risen at times, notably at his clos
ing illusions to the martyred president
to a height of eloquence not often
reached in congress. Blaine's way of
saying old and well known things is a
most impressive one.
The Herald says: The vigorous and
effective speech by Blaine, illustrates
his sagacity in recognizing the force of
perfectly conclusive argument. The
Herald has ofteu exposed the utter alb
surdity of the democratic bug-aboo
about soldiers at the polls. Blaine in
his speech yesterday recognized its over
whelming force. He gave it new
point and force by fortiiying 1t with
statistics.

Senate and House Proceedings.



Washington, April 15.-The army
appropriation bill was taken up, and
Logan addressed the senate. He
thought the question now before that
body more important than any other
that had arisen since '61, when the
same sentiments which prompted the
present legislation, expressed by many
of the same men now uttering them,
led to war. He denounced the proposed
legislation as bad in itself, and as being
attempted by yunparliamentary practice.
Bayard offered the following:
Resolred, That in the absence of the
vice president A. G. Thurman be, and
he is hereby, chosen president of the

Boston, April 15.-The evening
Journal says: IF, as we are informed,
passengers are being carried from Bos.
ton to Chicago for S13 per head,s we
should think pool was as desirable to

troll the freight business of trunk lines.
1t has for some time been possible to
obtain tickets from here to Chicago for
s13, the regular fare being S22, but now
as tickets to California for emigrants
have been sold for S57, and as the pro-
portion claimed by the Pacific roads is
S45, and the roads between Chicago
and Omaha charge SO, there would only
by 50 left for the roads from Boston to

nousE-AFTERNooN SESSION.

Washington, April 15.-The pending
question being on Bragg's motion to
insert the clause repeating the law
creating southern claims commission
and substitute therefor the one Of
fered by Young, of Tennessee, abolish
ing its admission, but transferring all
the claims now pending before it to the
court of claims.
Bragg favored the proposition. The
law ordering the court had been passed
in what the republican side of the
house calls an unconstitutional and
revolutionary method, having been en-
grated on an appropriation bill.
After considerable debate by Baker,
Of Indiana, Keifer, Young, of Tennes-
see, Russell, of North Carolina, and
the southern members generally, pro-
testing against Bragg's amendment
Russell warmly objected to slurs being
cast on the union men of the south,
who were the equals of Bragg or any
other man on the floor.
The house committee on epidemic
diseases agreed to report favorably the
bill of Representative Young, of Ten
nessee, for the prevention of recur-
renee of the yellow fever and other
epidemic diseases. This bill also gives
the national board of health the power
to investigate cattle diseases.
Springer moved to amend Young's
substitute, by adding proviso that the
cases thus transferred to the court
Of claims shall be subject to the de-
fense Of the government that could
have been made If the cases were pend
ing before the commission. Rejected,
with only IS affirmative votes.
Young's substitute was rejected by
107 to SO.
Braggs' amendment was rejected by
112 to 85.
Without disposing of the pending
amendments, the committee rose, and
the house directed that ali debate on
the amendments shall close in ten min
utes after the house again goes into a
committee.
