WEDNESDAY, Jan. 21-House. Mr.
Sparks, chairman of the committee on
military affairs, reported back the bill
for the relief of General Fitz John Por-
ter, accompanied by majority report
thereon. Mr.. McCook presented q mi
nority report. Both reports were ordered
printed and the bill made special
order for the 18th Of February. Nc
Manon, from the committee on Ap-
preparations, reported bill for the pay
ment of fees of United States marshals
and deputy marshals for the fiscal year
ending June 80, $780, The morning
hour was consumed by the discussion
of the bill requiring one-half of the bank
reserves to be kept.in coin. Mr.. Town
shend, of Illinois, argued against the
bill as being in favor of the national
banks and adverse to the in
terests of the people. Mr.. Buck
ner, who has charge of tn" bill,
argued that the whole scope and object
of the bill is to get into circulation some
Of the immense mass OF gold andssilver
coin now lying in the vaults of the treas
ury. In conclusion, he would move the
previous question, deprecating discus
sion on the general question of f.
nance, which he argued was not relevant
to the bill at all. The morning hour ex-
pired before the vote on the previous
question could be taken. Thu house
then resumed the consideration of the
revision of the rules.

drove 70 the house of Frank Eaton, in
Southwest Oswego, and impaired to
that gentleman the astonishing intelli-
gence that there was fortune OF
$1,000, 600 awaiting him in England.
that had been left by an uncle who died
twenty Years ago. The agent said be
had been searching the country for the
heirs, and had examined the titles OF
several Eatons. but TO no effect. He is
now assured That he had the right man.
The agent said he wanted no money
from Mr.. Eaton, as he had been prom
ised two per cent. of the entire amount
of the fortune if he would find the heir.
Mr.. Eaton is, of course, taken entirely
by surprise, but lie will see at once what
