THE latest piece Of congressional idiocy is
the proposal, by Representative Warner, of
Missouri, 70 amend, by process of law, the
system of spelling now in vogue. 1t may be
laid down as general proposition that the
individual who objects to the accepted or
biography of the English language is him
self unable TO spell correctly. A reasonable
certainty also exists in such cases that the
dissatisfied person would find himself unable

WAsHINGToN, Feb. 9.-At to-day's meeting of
the ways and means committee, Chairman
Mills called up for action the bills introduced
by himself and Mr.. Breckenridge of Kentucky,
relative to the investment of the funds in the
treasury in United States bonds, and. after
port fayorably Mr.. Mills's bill, which reads as
follows:
Be enacted etc. that the Secretary of the Treas
ury is hereby authorized to apply the surplus money
in the Treasury and not otherwise appropriated,
SO much thereof he may consider proper to the
purchase redemption of United States bonds.
Mr.. Breckinridge's bill, which WAS laid over
by this action, was of wider scope, and not
only authorizes like investment of the surplus,
but also the investment of the funds now held
for redemption of legal-tender notes and as
security for national bank circulation.
