Two Houses.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The Forty
ainth Congress is now fully entered
mon its first session. The members
all came back from their constituents at
Ter the holiday recess with pockets and
Qrip-sacks stuffed with bills, and on the
irst day of re-assembling nearly 800 OF
these bills were launched upon the legis-
lstiye sea, in the House of Representa-
lives alone. These, with the 9S9 intro
juced in a single day before the recess,
make in round numbers about l.SOO meas
ures offered for consideration thus early
ia the session. The average Congress
mans idea of usefulness connects itself
vita bills, and his great remedy for all
political and social defects is bills. Near
iyeyery member has a dozen or two Of
IT measures, and the member who does
NOT PROFOUND his share OF these conun-
drums is popularity supposed to repre-
sent a case Of misplaced confidence on the
rart ofms constituents. II is amusing to
Inc looker-on to see the eagerness men,
rels manifest TO eet their bills in when

The daily sessions begin at noon and
continue usually four or five hours.
Often in the early days of the sess' IN.
nothing is done beyond q little
routine lasting Sn hour or so,
but in the latter part of the
session there comes rush, of neglected
business and long days or even night
slttings become necessary in order to get
even the most urgent matters disposed Of.
The first session of each Congress. called
the long session, can be prolonged as the
two houses see fit but the last or short
session ends by constitutional limitation
on March 4. Political discussions
and buncombe resolutions occupy large
share OF the time of both houses and much
of the legislation, perfected IS tinged with
these considerations. But those who i'm
agine that scenes of political strife and
personal controversy in the halls of Con.
gress are innovations peculiar to our
times should turn back to the 'good old
days" of jackson and Clay and Randolph,
when Congressman had code of honor
and considered case Of pistols neces-
cary part Of their outfit. Such momentOus
questions as the United States Bank, the
Missouri compromise, the protection
tariff the Mexican war. the anneXa-
ton OF Texas, the notification act
and the fugitive slave bill, were not set

scenes.

When a message is received from the

TIE POTION OF PEACE.
An Important Question of International
Arbitration Before the Senate.

From tbs Nelo York Herald.
WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-Thc Senate is
soon to decide the rather interesting ques-
ton whether the much and Justly praised
system of International arbitration shall
he allowed 10 become the means Of furth-
ering and protecting fraud and swinde.
IL is TO vote on a convention concluded
between the United States and Mexico
for a retrial OF the notorious Veil and La
Abra claims. About the fraudulent char
acter of these claims there is no doubt.
This has beeh exposed again and again.
Mr.. Evarts, when secretary Of State, was
so satisfied of it that he wrote that "tbe
honor of the United States requires that
these two cases shall be further inVes-
tigated." Secretary Blaine, his successor,
wrote that "this government can have no
less interest than that OF Mexico in prob
ing any allegation OF fraud whereby the
good faith Of both in a common transac-
tion may have been imposed upon" Sec
rotary FrehnghuYeen negotiated a treaty
providing for denomination Of these
claims, and this IS now before the Senate.
The present pOssessOTs Of these claims
assert that "arbitratiOn il final" and that
therefore honest aud fraudulent claims
are alike sacred against retrial. But the
Supreme Court said on this point:
"As 10 the right Of the United States to
treat with Mexico for retrial we enter
tain no doubt, Each government, when
IL entered into the compact under which
the aw ards were made, relied on the honor
and good faith OF the other for protection
as far as possible against frauds and i'm
positionsOi individual claimants.
The presentation by "A citizen Of a fraudu-
lent claim or false testimony for reference
u the commission WAS an imposition on
his own government. and N that govern
ment afterward discovered that IL had
in this way been made an Instru-
ment OF wrong toward "A friendly power IL
would be not only lis right, but It's duty,
10 repudiate the act and make reparatiOn
as FAR as possible for the consequences OF
ITS neglect II any there had been. Inter-
national arbitration must always pro.
coed on the principles of national honor
and integrity. The United states, when
they assumed the responsibility Of pre-.
sentng the claims of their citizens 10
Mexico tor pay ment, entered iAtO no con-
tract obi cations with the claimants to
assume their frauds and % collect on their
account All that, by their imposition Of
false testimony, might be given In the
awards Of the commission. As between
the United states aud the claimants the
honesty OF the claims II always Open 10

with the government, against which,
through the United States, a claim has
been made

ceedIngs seldom possess much interest
for the outside observer. Debates in the
Senate are conducted on the gO-as-you-
please plan, Senators having the right 10
speak as long as they please; as, for in
stance, in the Fitz-John Porter debate,
when Senator Logan occupied two con-
secutive days. whenever the subject in
hand is not interesting, and the Senator
who is wound up happens not to be an en-
tertaining speaker, most Of the Senator'S
stroll out to the retiring room to smoke or
sit at their desks and write letters until 1t
is all over. The passages-at-arms between
Senators are usually mild in character.
On Que occasion, when a Senator had
finished speaking, another opposed to him
in the argument remarked that sit is gen.
orally understood the gentleman rests mis-
mind while talking" TO which the other
retOrted with: 1.-The gentleman reminds

York was called, something like a dozen
uen rose TO their feet gesticulating and
.1outing, "Mr. Speaker" But the great
and good Hewitt, who had so far been
able to prepare only 10 bills, which he
held sl0ft in MS hand, was first recog-
nized. The last Congress was particu-
larly prolific in bills. On the first bill day
in that Congress 1871 bills were introduced
with the call Of States only half finished,
