WASHINGTON, D. G., November 29--ot
the new Congressman who have put in an
appearance nearly every one comes with
his pockets full OF bills to launch upon the
House at the very fist opportunity, and
many OF them talk very confdentia!ly OF
being able to institute radical reforms in
the way oflegislation. During the present
week the Departments have been called
upon by a number Of these Congressman
for information relating to the subject
matter Of the bills they propose iintroduc.
ing. The Treasury officials have been al.
yised that number OF bills changing the
existing tariff law, modifying the NJ
tional bank law, and repeating the sil-
yer bill, will be early introduced,
and the Interior Department has
been notified that bills repealirg the land
subsidies granted to railroads and trans.
ierring the Indian Bureau TO tho War De-
partment have been prepared Tor early
submission to the House. 1t is very
noticeable that the old members generally
do not seem to favor much general legisla-
tion, but content themselves with advo.
eating the adoption Of as few bills as posi-.
BILE outside OF the appropriation bills. II
the new Congressman will be guided by
the older heads the number Of bills passed
will be exceedingly few, and legislation
cleaned up 80 that an adjournment can be
had before hot weather sets in next sum.

noon. "It may not be done Immediately,
the Senate doesn't hurry matter, you
know, but resolution to take up the sub.
ject can be considered at any time"
~ notice that the Post this morning con-
cedes the fact that Senators Malone and
R:ddleberger will act with the Republicans.
Do you know anything about it?p
"No; but It Is fact that without the
Virginia Rsadjusters We have majority OF
two, and with their votes, four"
"But II they were to vote with the Demo-
Gratis it would create lie and deadlock"
"Yet; but Z do not anticipate anything
oil that sort, especially after the attitude
the Democrats Of Virginia have assumed
toward them. The Democrats are more
opposed to the Readjusters than they are
to the Republicans. l can't see that there
will be any opposition to reorganization.
We may not do It Immediately after the
opening Of Congress, but the principal off,
GERS will be first changed, and alter them
the subordinate. There is no reason why
the matter should be hurried at all"
On the subject Of the probable course Of
the Virginia Senators, the Star this evening
says: A Star reporter was informed to-day
that Senators Mahone and Riddleberger
had positively decided that they will not
20 to the Republican Senatorial caucus.
They will act with the Republicans, and
on that ground will strongly insist upon
the election Of George Gorham as secre-
tary. Manone and Rlddleberger claim that
Gorhsm Is the regular Republican nomi-
nee, and that he Is entitled to election.

THE AnEsicAN HOG.
Erect of tho Removal of the French
Embargo on Importation.

Embargo ON Importation.
NEw YoRK, November 28.-The action
of the French Government in taking the
embargo from the importation Of Ameri-
can pork was the subject of discussion on
the floor Of the Produce Exchange to-day.
The general feeling was one Of satisfaction
that the French were beginning TO appre-
ciate the superiority Of the American hog.
When the news was first heard on the Ex-
change, on Tuesday, there was an advance
Of so cents. Yesterday there was q re-
action Of 10 cent?, but the advance Of 50
cents that remained showed the frmness
of the market. The exporters, packers
and slaughterers do not expect to feel an
increase in trade for soms time, az, al
though the embargo has been abolished,
there will remain a suspicion Of the quality
OF meat Tor q long time. There was no
evidence Of any speculation on the Ex-
change in either pork or lard, and every
thing was quiet.
"fhe reintroduction OF pork into France
will begin" said one Of the prominent ex.
porters 10 reporter, "in the seaport townR,
and we shall rely on the merchants oi those
places to push 1t into the interior. The
French Government was placed under
great pressure there can be no doubt, BY
the heavy produce dealers in that country,
and It was by that means, am convinced,
that 1t was induced 10 admit tho Yankee
hog. We are now awaiting the news that
Germany has followed the good example oi
her neighbor."
