FREE COINAGE.

Debate In the House on the silver Ques-
ton.
WASHINGTON, D. C March 20.-Under
the special order made on Tuesday last, the
limited debate on the adverse report on the
Free Coinage bill, was begun, and the floor
was taken By Mr.. James, of New York, in
opposition to the bill. he said the people
were apt to look to lawyers and professors
and political leaders for financial legisla'
ton, instead of the business men. The re.
suit Of this looking to lawyers, protessors
and politicians was that now the country
was in a slough. and the car Of State nearly
ditched. Tnis was more question of get
ting out OF something bad than Of doing
something great.
Mr.. O'Donnell, of Michigan, branched
of from the main question before the
House with an argument 10 show that II
the cultivation OF sugar was encouraged by
boun,ies the PEOPLE would be relieved from
the payment of q portion Of their heavy
duties now collected on that article.
Mr.. Hemphill, OF South Carolina, said
that if the farmers were to be paid for their
cotton in silver worth eighty cents, the day
of their prosperity was, in his opinion, for
ever gone. -,
The relative value Of silver aud gold
would be fuctusting in the future as in
the past, The cotton grower must make
sllo owauces for that.
Mr.. Bynum, Of Indiana, supported the
minority report which fayors the passage
of the free coinage bill.
Mr.. Stone, of Missouri, addressed the
House and announced himself in favor o.
suy IN sssure which could tend to restore
silver to an equality with gold.
