CONGRESSIONAL.


The adjournment from Thursday last until
to-day was barren Of results. There is not the
remOtest sign of a break in the deadlock In
fact, the hopes of q compromise or settlement
lessen as time i.asses. The Democrats are stub
born in their avowed determination to remain
il session until December, rather than yield a
hair to their opponents and the same spirit is
manifested by the Republicans.
= The senate proceedings to-day were substan-
TALLY repetition Of those of many days pre-
vious. There was the same amount of bicker-
ing between senator's, justification of their con-
by the two parties, as has characterized the de-
bates of the past month. Senators Dawes and
Beck came very near an interchange of impolite
language, but the momentary difficulty was
amicably settled. Senator Brown delivered the
second section of his three-part speech, and
after great deal of time consumed in petty
debate and roll calls. the senate adjourned.

Mr. Blair of New Hampshire introduced
reeo. uion declaring that, in the Judgment of
the senate the public interests require that con-
gress be convened Immediately. Mr.. Blair

should be called TO protect the industries Of the
country. He read letter showing that under
. ruling Of the treasury department, sustained
by the supreme court, the hosiery manufactur-

Blairs opinion the tariff needed revision, and
he thought continual sessions of congress
would be good thing for the country.
Senator Logan refuted for the fortieth time
the stories that are current and believed to
some extent that he sympathized with the re-
bellion at the beginning, raised . regiment, etc.
He read letter dated April Ii, 1881, from
Senators Lamar and Pugh, who hao served with
him in congress at the outbreak CT theawar,
bearing testimony 70 his loyalty to the Union
at that period, and stating they had never
heard him utter one word Of sympathy with
the rebellion, but on the contrary, he had been
v,hemently opposed to it.
Senator Brown Of Mississippi. took pleasure
in saying he thought the Senator's vindication
was full, complete and conclusive.
Mr. Beck OF KY, said at the close Of the war
he had been kept out of the house of represen-
tatiyes some time through the efforts Of the
gentleman from Illinois logan, and he had
mans action at the outbreak Of the struggle
He had submitted many of those to Frank
Blair; who had said to him: "Beck, John Logan
was one Of the best fighters in the war, and
when men who are now trying to whistle him
down the wind were Yer seeking safe places. he
ued Beck, l took every paper l had and burned
them before his eyes.
After Gen. Logan came Mr.. Call of Florida

WEDNESDAY APRIL. FL.
Senator Frye of Maine made his debut in his
new field by . long and fiery speech bitterly
busive of the southern states
A scene very comical and earnest followed
between Butler and Burnside. The senator
from Rhode Island jumped angrily to his feet,
