CONGRESS.

By bold parliamentary move, the
silver men of the United States Senate
yesterday, under the leadership of
Senator Jones, of Arkansas, forced
aside all other pending business, includ-
ing appropriation bills, and, by vote
of 80 to 81, made the bill for the I'M
restricted coinage of silver the unfnish-
ed business before the Senate. Having
succeeded in this, Mr.. Jones gave notice
that the silver bill would be kept before
the Senate until final vote was secur-
ed. The move of the silver men came
as the climax of an exciting day in the
Senate. For two hours at the opening
of the session there was renewal of
the attack and defense, the charge and
counter charge concerning the course of
the President and the Secretary of the
Treasury in negotiating the recent bond
contract with foreign bankers. The
two notable speeches of the day were
| made by Mr.. Gray and Mr.. Sherman,
whose financial views are always re-
ceived with marked attention. Senator
Gray,s statement that had not it been
for the bond contract the United States
might have gone to silver basis in
twenty -four hours created something of
stir. Mr.. Gray said that just prior to
the signing of the last bond contract
United States Treasurer Jordan had
notified the secretary that he could not
continue longer than the next day to
pay gold on demand for legal tenders.
This statement was confirmed by the
treasury officials. Mr.. Sherman declar
ed that no bonds should be issued, e1-
cspt to be taken by the people of the
United States, and be asserted the
abundant ability of Americans to furnish
all the gold necessary. The agricul-
tural appropriation bill was finally
passed.
In the House bill was passed to
grant to the State of Alabama for
public uses the Mount Vernon military
| reservation.

THE RNER.-The Norfolk boats,
tugs. &c, are er4dHally widening the
enamel in the rivera tho ice III tho
track made by them lnoves with The
ebbing ard flowing of the tide. On
Sunday morning there was not clear
stretch of water between this port and
Point Lookout, but the steamers Wash
jngtoa ard Norfolk. the former on her
way up the river and the latter in her
passage down, made track in which
other steamers. especially those OF the
propeller type, can now run. The
steamer Norfolk reached this port this
morning at twenty minutes to nine
o'clock, or only an hour and forty
minutes late, which demonstrated that
she had met with comparatively few
obstacles in her passage up the river.
She reports much floating ice in the
bay and that the heaviest encountered
was at Cedar Point, and that it extends
from that locality all the way up the
river. The ice is softening all the time
under the prevailing mellow sunshine
and now that q channel has been
broken it is believed that it will soon be
dissipated without any material injury
OF course, should rain set in
and be prolonged for even forty-eight
hours apprehension would reasonably
exist. The tugs Templar, Harlow and
left Yeocomico yesterday With
six oyster boats in tow for Baltimore, it
being deemed hazardous proceeding
for them TO have undertaken to come
this way. The government tug Triton
which went down to Indian Head yes
