Referred to the committee on foreign affairs.
 A number of bills of little public impor- tance were introduced and referred.
 MT. Reed of Maine suggested that it was preferable to have the measures referred (as they were in the Fifty-frst congress- drought the medium of the speaker.
 MT. McMillin of Tennessee objected, and the regular order having been demanded, the house proceeded to the further consid- eration of the proposed rules.
 THE SENATE.
 The following bills were introduced and referred in the senate to-day:
 By Mir. Hiscock, respecting the reckoning of time throughout the United States.

 Mir. Morgan offered resolution direct ing the secretary of state to send to the senate copies of the correspondence with the Chinese government relating to the non acceptance of Henry w. Blair as United States minister to China.
 MT. Hoar suggested that the resolution should request the president to furnish the if in his judgment not in consistent with the public welfare.
 Mir. Morgan did not agree with Mir. Hoar on that point. He merely wanted to know the objections asserted against Mir. Blair by the Chinese government and the action taken by the government of the United States. Mir. Blair had been con firmed instantly by the senate and so far as the senate was concerned there had been the strongest affirma- ton MT. Blair's fitness to represent the United States government in China or anywhere else. The matter had fingered along for some time and MT. Blair had re- signed the position. In view of the ques- ton now presented (alluding to the objec- ton of the Chikan government to MT. Egan) it was important to know what was the established line of procedure on the part of the government of the United States. There was no more important question connected with the diplomatic service.
