The alleged bribery of Swan and Har-
rimsn by W. r. White. Esq. OF Winthrop
is emphatically dened by that gentleman,
who demands an investigation. Swan and
Hartman appear TO have gotten them
selves into trouble by the statements they
made 10 the House, as the statutes provide
that the reception OF bride by legisls-
tive officer, works the forfeiture OF his

The first thing that gave the Fusion

THE SENATE was not in session to-day.
HOUSE.-The House met to-day for debate
only on the funding bill, and Immediately went
into committee Of the whole covert, Of New
York, in the chair on that bill.
Mr.. FELTON, spoke In favor of a substitute
which he proposed TO offer for the bill, and
which requires the Secretary of the Treasury to
redeem any U. S. bonds which may become re-
deemable during 1880 and 1881 to the amount OF
gold and silver coin now In the Treasury which
may be In excess Of rs per cent of the outstand.
Ing Q. s. notes, using said excess OF gold and
silver coin for the redemption Of said bonds.
Sec. 2requires the Secretary six months after the
aforementioned amount of bonds are redeemed
and to red redeem sna the
yer coin which may be in the Treasury at the
time in excess Of 25 per centum Of the outstand-
ing .. s. notes. Section requires the secre-
of $4,000,0W per month with lawful money Of
the United States, provided said bullion can be
purchased at par, and requires him to have the
dollars, as now provided by law. Section for
bids and prohibits the Secretary from issuing
hereafter any interest-bearing bonds for the
purpose OF funding or refunding the national
debt or any part thereof
Mr.. FELTON, expressed himself as opposed to
every form at fnterest-bearing debt.
MI Frye replied to dds the speech made
denied that the public debt could be paid in 20
years except by setting up printing presses and
paying it In irredeemable paper currency.
Mr.. Kelley.-Are we not now paying it at a
rate that would exhaust it all in good deal
less than 20 years without setting up presses?
Mr. Frye.--The gentleman from New York
debt from 1875 TO 1879. II that is true, how long
will it take to pay the national debt?
Mr.. Kelley.-That is not an answer to my
question aver that at the rate we have paid
the debt In this fiscal year, when people are not
specially complaining Of heavy taxes It will
disappear in Is years.

ENGLISH POLITICAL CAMPAIGN.
A Bitter Contest Liberals Hopeful.
UNIVERSITY BOAT RACE POSTPONED.
MORE MASONIC EMBLEMs.
THE POLITICAL CAMPAIGN IN
ENGLAND
A Bitter COntest-The Liberals Hope

LONDON, March 2o.-The electoral campaign
Increases In activity. 1t has been almost i'm
possible during the past week to get aJSufficient
number Of members of Parliament together to
make basis. All the important measures that
could be disposed OF this season were rushed
through and the House of Commons will meet
on Wednesday next, only for formal proroga-
tion preliminary to dissolution. The liberals
seem more active and confident, and their or
gans are freely predicting an Overwhelming
victory. MI. Gladstone's speeches alone occupy
more space In the newspapers than those Of all
the other candidates together. Thus far his
speeches follow the lines Of his previous utter
ances on questions OF policy the only remark
able development being bitter pronunciation
of Austria In his first speech, at Edinburgh A
Vienna correspondent reported that the En-
peror OF Austria had to be Sir Henry G. Elliot,
British Ambassador, at Vienna; that as Mr..
Gladstone disapproved OF AuStria'S foreign
policy, the Emperor hoped Lord Beaconsheld
would be successful In the coming elections.
Mr.. Gladstone after reading this statement
said II the electors approved of AuStrias
foreign policy he would advise them to vote
for the retention Of Lord Beaconsfield's ministry
Austria he said has ever been the untiinchIng
enemy OF freedom in every country of Europe,
and there is not spot on the whole mass
"There Austria did good" With much more to
the same purpose Right Hon. Jno. Bright
speaking at Birmingham yesterday, said rive
are at this moment witnessing the dying hours
OF the worst of modern partisans and beholding
the spectacle Of the worst OF administrations
brought up for Judgment"
The conservatives conduct the campaign more
quietly but every doubtful seat will be con-
tested to the bitter end.
