CoNGER AND BUTLER.
A Few Words Relative 10 the River ana
Mnrbor ApnroprIniiOn iii.

Mr.. Conger of the committee which reported
the river and harbor Till, deprecated all apparent
disposition in Congress to give undue weight TO
recommendations which did not come through the
proper committee He said that If the committee
had followed the suggestions for an increase
which had been made tothcm through other than
official channels the bill would have swollen to
s75,0OO,0OO. He could see no justification for the
pending motion, which increased the amount for
Charleston hGrbOr TO S50O,000
Mr.. Butler intimated that South Carolina was
entitled to benefit 10y the committees lberallty,
and called Mr. Conger's attention to sundry items
for Michigan rivers in which an increase had
been allowed.
Mr.. Conger said that where his own State had
received hundreds, o her States had been given
millions for rivers. He had even been driven 10
wonder at his own moderation when he heard the
demands that were made by other elSItors. 1t
was better, however, TO be grand than to be in-
significant in such matters, he admitted and to
men. He supposed the Senator(Mr. Butler) would
deem 1t unworthy of himself TO ask for less than
a couple bundled thousands of an increase, but
he would have the Senator reflect that there must
be limit to the size of the bill somewhere. He
then argued that South Carolina had been among
the foremost of the States in former years in re-
sisting internal improvements by the general gov
ernment, and that this was hardly consistent
with her present demands
Mr. Butter replied, criticislng Mr.. Conger's re-
marks as speech Tor home consumption, and q
scolding and sneer, for which the inquiry he
had addressed to that Senator furnished neither
justification nor pr, text. He challenged its cor
rectness in various particulars and asserted that
the Misrepresentation into which the Senator had
fallen concerning the record of South Carolina
upon internal improvements was upon par with
his miSstutcments generally concerning the
Charleston harbOr expenditures.

A.sociafel Charities.

The regular meeting of the Central Board OF the
Associated Charities of the District was held at
their rooms, No. lIls street, last night, Wm.
Gurley in the chair, and L. s. Emory officiating as
secretary. Aftcr the tran saction of the ordinary
routine business the report of the secretary for
the month ending July ~ was read Iwenty'slx
ceived during the month. Bills to the amount of
S7445 were audited and ordered paid. The board
then proceeded to an election to fill va
cancy in the board of managers caused
by the removal of Rev Dr. Paxton from the city.
Rev. DIR. Bartlett was nominated and unani-
mousy elected Several cases where the associa-
ton had been def auded by designing swndlers
were brought up, their names registered, and the
advisabiity, of publishing and prosecuting
action was deferred. After some discussion, it
was decided that the board should adjourn until
tral Office of the board No. 1ilS street, will be
kept open throughout the summer; Office hours,
