The luncheon given to the COm61ie FRANCHISE by
the Lord Mayor does not seem to have been a great
success. They expected to meet numbers of arts
tic and literary celebrities; hardly one Of whom
was invited have even heard the luncheon called
shabby; not truly, let us hope. Some of the cere-
monies struck the Frenchmen drOll. They do
not seem to have been warned that it is the custom
to say grace on such occasions, and they were not
impressed with the soemnity OF that ceremony, nor
knew what part in it they were expected to take.
The political toasts, as they called them, were
fresh surprise. "Why should people be forever
drinking the health of the Queen in this countryp
queried one lady; and was only half satisfied when
told that the custom was immemorial. When the
toast to the President of the French Republic fol-
lowed. this same viyaciOus person remarked; Ills

cOuntry-a company of artists like thls-dream Of
troubling ourselves TO remember anything about

But whatever they thought of these peculiarities,
they were very sensible OF the compliment paid
them by such an invitation from such great func-
tonary. In Paris, luncheon with the Lord Mayor
will be looked upon as the next thing to having
lunched with the Queen. CIV. s.

THE OBJECTIONABLE CLAUSE.
The bill contains however, other provisions which
are identical in tenor md effect with the second
section of the bill entitled: An act making appro-
priatIons for certain judicial expenses" which on
the 23d of the present month, was returned to the
House of Representatives with my objections to its
approval. The provisions referred to are as fol
lows:
SEC. 2. That the sums appropriated In this act for
the persons and public service embraced In Its pro-
visions are in full for such persons and public ser,
wee for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1885, and
no department or officer of the Government shall
during SAID fiscal year make any contract or incur
liability for the future payment Of money under
any of the provisions of Title &C. mentioned
I'm Section / of this act, until an appropriation
sufficient to meet such contract or pay such labll
ity shall have first been made by law.
Upon a reconsideration in the House of Represen-
tatives Of the bill which contained these provisions
it lacked constitutional majority, and therefore
failed to become a law. In order to secure its en-
actment the same measure Is again presented for
my approval coupled in the bill before me with APP
preparations for the support of marshals and their
deputies during the next fiscal year.

functions of the public service to be crippled, or
suspended for the want of tho appropriations re-
CURED to keep them in operation, or to approve
legislation which in official communications TO Con-
gress he has declared would be a violation
of hii constitutional duty Thus, in this
bill the principle is clearly embodied
that by virtue of the provision of the Constitution
which requires that all bills for raising revenue
shall originate in the House of Representatives," a
bare majority of the House of Representatives has
the right to withhold appropriations for the support
of the Government, unless the Executive consents
TO approve any legislation which may DO attached
to appropriation bills.
respectfully refer to the communications on the
subject which have sent to Congress during the
present session for statement of the grounds OF my
conclusions, and desire here merely 10 repeat that
in my Judgment, to establish the principle of this
bill is to make radical dangerous and unconstitu-
tIOnal change III the character of Institutions.

81. A VOTE ON FREE SILVER COINAGE.
THE RESOLUTION OF SENATOR VEST REFERRED-A
MAJORITY IN FAVOR OF a RATIONAL SYSTEM


MAJORITY IN FAVOR OF A RATIONAL SYSTEM
IBY TELEGRAPH TO TRIBUNE.I
WASHINGTON, June 30.-A fair test OF the
strength of the two parties in the Senate upon the
silver question: as it snow understood, had this
morning upon tho motion to refer Senator Vests
free coinage resolution to the Committee upon
Finance.
No time was spent in debate upon the measure to-
day, but the debate of the last three four days
has served TO define the positions held by the
friends and the opponents of the bill. The former
comprise those who would open the minis immedi-
atey for the free coinage of silver giving to bullion
owners the world over the immense profit which
would result, and driving gold out of the country.
The opponents those who favor the full remone-
tization Of silver and its free coinage ultimately,
but would approach this result gradually and
secure if possible, the same result at the time
in other countries where at present gold is the sole
standard Iftbere any absolute gold monomet-
allists the Senate they have not given voice to
their opinions during the present session.
On the vote to-day every Republican present, to-
pether with Senators Bayard, Eaton Herman and
Whytc voted to refer the resolution to the Finance
Committee which is equivalent to its postponement
until next Fall. The vote stood % for ference
and % for present consideration half hosr later
Senator Bailey and Senator Hampton said that II
thew had been present they would have voted
against a reference of the measure, whereupOn Sen
ator GrOOme Il Democrat, and Senator MCMILLAN,
Republican, said that if they had been present they
would have voted for reference.
THIS result is believed to indicate that all the Re
publcaus and small minority of the Democrats,
making together majority OF the Senate, are in
favor Of a rational financial system.
