EWAsHINGroN, Feb 24.-The Democratsint the House
of Representatives seem to be bent upon creating
the necessity for q called session Of the ALVllth
Congress; their action during the last ten hours
can be explained upon no other reasonable hypothe-
SIS Barely six working davs OF the session no"
remain. The House has devoted the greater part OF
two DAYS to consideration of the SundrY Civil Dill,
which is about half finished by the Committee OF
the Whole. The preparation of the General Dei-
cheney bill has not yet been finished by the SUD
committee of the Appropriations Committee. 1ne
Funding bill lies on the Speakers table, where IL
has been for q week. with important Senate amenu'
meuts. In the very last week of the ses-
sion, with business enough to occupy every
moment of the time remaining, the Democrat ma
iority set out this morning on attempt to force
through the House, under tho whip and spur,
partisan measure designed to give the Southern
Democrats an undue political advantage In the
House of Representatives during the next dozen
years, and to give the same party four more votes
than it is justly entitled to in each OF the ne1t
three electoral colleges. To this high-handed pro
ceeding, engineered by MIR. g. 3. Cox, the hepuDh'
cans and q very few Northern Democrats are op-
posed. . 4.
Time after time, in the course of the session to-
day, Republicans have appealed 10 thelr OpPonentS
to abandon this vain and vicious attempt and TO 90
on with the unfinished appropriation bills or the
Funding BILL all OF which must be disposed OF
within week or an extra session will be inevitable.
The Democrats have cOntemDtuously sDurned every
such appeal and have rejected every reasonable oher
of compromise. About o'clock no quorum was
present and call of the House was advised: AT y
o'clock no further progress had been made, ana
fewer members present than responded 70 their
names a roll call six hours before In tho course
of this time Mr. Carlisle and of the other few
cool and sensible Democrats, exDostulated ana

stnate course and allow legitimate business to take
precedence. At o'clock, however. be appeared to
DO more obduIate and determined, II possible than
at the beginning of the days proceedings.

xFFOR1s OF TIE TREASURY TO RELIEVE THE
MONEY MARKET.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Secretary Sherman states
this evening. relative tp the present movement of
the National banks to retire their circulation that
this movement of the banks to avoid the operation
of the fifth section of the Funding bill (which pro-
ydes that from and after aceran date the three per
cent bonds ehall be the only bonds receivable as
security for National bank circulation) necessarily
brought into the Treasury large sums of money ;
that it only affects the money market in the City Of
New-York, where the deposits must be made, and
draws directly from the banks the street currency
needed there for business operations.
Secretary Sherman says the Treasury can. and
wi pay out this money. and also the surplus reve-
nne. In payment for bonds for the sinking fund if
offered at par and accruing interest that the Treas
ury cannot nterpose further than to apply It's sur
plus currency in excess of the redemption fund to
the reduction of the public debt. Called bonds are
preferred, but if these are not offered, maturing
os and es win probably be taken on the same
terms, namely, at par and sccruing interest. The
bonds must be sent to Washington to be verified,
but will be promptly paid for at either of the punc-
pal repositories OF the United States.
