There is another element that iavors the
adoption Of the amendment with the idea
that 1t Will tend to strengthen the Speaker
by enabling him to provide for the mem.
bers who have regarded themselves as
sighted. Then there are Democrats who
are willing to use the question to divide
and distract the Republicans and make
mischief out Of II in any shape possible,
and besides, there are some members who
are seeking to tack on an amendment
to this amendment to authorize the
committee on the improvement Of the nav
igation OF the Mississippi river, to frame
and report appropriation bills for this pur.
pose.
Fiity.nine new Committees places con-
templated in Robeson's amendment have
already been promised, and Of course the
members who expect them are supporters
oil the amendment. The Democrats are,
IS q body, opposed to the amendment, but
they voted against laying II on the table
to-day because they wanted TO get vote
on 0rth's substitute. To have tabled the
amendment would have killed the whole

TO Redemption from DourbonIsm.
WASHINGTON, January l7-.Among move
ments to take Southern States out of the
control Of the regular Democracy, none,
perhaps, is more hopeful than that in North
Carolina, and within few ddysthis move.
ment has received marked accessions Of
strength. Nowhere, perhaps, out of vir-
ginia has the Malone movement been more
potent in disoganizing existing party ma.
chimes than in North Carolina, and the
prospect is that in the near future that
State will be enrolled in the ranks OF the
opposition.
Ex-senator Pomeroy, who Is largely in
tercsted in mining industries there, says
that he regards North Carolina to-day rs an
easier State to be carried by the Republi-
can party than Indiana, and that it only
needs proper party organization and sys-
tematic work. OF eight Congressional dis
tricts only one is strongly Democratic, and
with a little effort Hubbs (Rep.) was elected
10 the present Congress from the Sec.
ond district by a majority OF five thousand
votes over the Democratic candidate. In
three other districts the vote was'so close
as to be for time uncertain. By proper
exertions State Senator Pomeroy thinks
that North Carolina can be easily secured
for the Republican party. Knowing this
fact, the discontented elements in the
Democratic party are inclined to step in
and present to the minority compromise
alternative on which both can agree. The
recent secession Of several prominent poll
tiCians who have hitherto acted with the
Democrats has made quite stir in the
State and can not fail to have an inhuen-
| tial effect.

Tho Debate on shernian'H Three Per
Cent Refundlne BIII.

AAu Dehoto ou oueEntAn'h TnEee Eef
Cent Refundlng Bill. n
WASHINGTON, January tI-During the
morning hour Mr.. Beck resumed his re-
marks on Ingalls, resolution declaring that
the pensions arrears law ought not to be
repealed. The subject was accordingly
passed over for the present.
Consideration OF sherman's funding bill
was resumed, and Mr.. Plumb argued that
the redemption fund for United States
notes ought to be diminished. He argued
that It was the solemn duty Of Congress,
not only to cut down but to definitely limit
that fund at stated figure, thereby max
ing saving TO the country in the item OF
interest, while allowing the money hereto
fore boarded in tho Treasury TO circulate.
Mr.. Pugh suid that Vests amendment
being q copy Of the Carlisle amendment,
while applicable to the funding bill OF the
last Congress. was imperative and incon-
sistent with some provisions Of tho pend
ing bill.
Mr.. Teller said he was opposed to the
bill not because he thought the bonds
could not be sold, but because he was dis
clined to continue the act Of asking and
tinkering OF the llnanCier, and failed to see
where refunding would be OF advantage to
the Government.
Mr.. Saunders favored the bill and op-
posed any amendments to its essential
features.
Mr.. Pendleton supported Vests amend
ment He said it provided that banks in
tending TO increase their circulation and
citizens desiring to organize new
banks shall take new bonds as basis OF
their circulation. He could see nothing
unreasonable or unfair in this, rs the banks
were agents or creatures OF the Government,
enjoyed immunity from obligations which
other private corporations did not enjoy.
They were merely to be obliged to take a
safe and permanent investment in some
way compensatory to the Government for
the valuable privilege It had given them Of
issuing currency to the country.
After few remarks, Mr.. Pendleton add
ed that he would vote for the amendment
suggested by Mr.. Davis (of w. Va.) provid.
ing that the new three per cents, while
redeemable at any time at the option OF
the Government, shall not be called in
until after other bonds bearing higher
rate OF interest shall be redeemed.
Without closing the debate, the Senate
went into executive session and adjourned
until tomorrow.
