Congressional.
SENATE.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Vest opposed
the ratification Of Windows acts. He
wanted the country tO pass on the valid
ity Of the bonds, and the Republican
party to take their responsibility. He
woke up Window, who asked what was
the particular act which he objected to.
Vest replied that which he denounced
WA an act by which the Secretary of the
Treasury, without an act OF Congress
authorizing him to do it, called on the
creditors holding the ) and 6 per cent.
bonds, and said to them, II will treat
with you with regard to the terms by
which these bends shall be continued"
Window Secretary Ofthe Treas
ury did no such thing.
Vczt-The whole country knows the
position OF that matter, aud there can l,e
no mistake about it.
Windom-But the Senator himself
does n t know 1t.
Vcst-I will not let the Senator Judge
for me. + believe he has violated the
Constitution, and AIN willing to leave
that matter to the people. Congress had
pointed out u way to meet the enlergen-
cy Of the bonds falling due.
Window interrupting) - Right ut
that point say the bonds did not be-
come due; they were payable at the
pleasure Of the Government, and they
50 stand to-day.
Vest-''So nlucl, the better for my
argument. The sovereign power of the
country had spoken IN regard t. that.
1t had said the bonds were to le funded
in three per cents. The Secretary then
had the alternative either to let the
bonds remain rs they were Or fund ut
three per cent"
Win,lon. said at last, after his urgent
call for three days for some one to point
out the law violated Senator Vest had
specifically indicated it. 1t was the law
which the President vetoed, and which
never became law.
Vest-''If the gentlemen il satisfied
with that / am. Let it 20 to the c,un-
try III ti,nt.''
