The Speaker presented correspOndence called
for yesterday between the Navy Department and
Rear Admiral. Goldsborough. Laid on the table
- and ordered to be printed. , • -
, The Speaker presented the reply of the Secre-_
tary of the Treasury to the resolution. ff ered by
Mr. Schenck, In reference to the Metropolitan
Board of Internal Revenue sitting in Now. York.
The Secretary elahns his authority to appoint
the commission from the general tenor of the
Internal Revenue law, and says he did so on 11c
-count of the shameful violation of the law, eve
., /chilly In New York, and unless Congress dis
. approves it, ho will establish similar boards in
ether cities. -
Mr. &hem* explained that he had offered the
. l'esolution because he had received letters,oot
from persons in.the, whisky business, but front
Tenons connected with the internal revenue
aerviee,criticiaing the establishnient of the board,
AndlteXpretesing the belief that it wits resulting in
positive evil to the government in aiding;' indeed
of preventing corruption..
-Mr. Allison defended the action of the Treasury
Department •in appointing the. Metropolitan
Board. It had becomeilotorious that in the city
of New York all sorbs of corruption had been
practiced by the officers of the government.. The
Secretary of the Treasury had, therefore, ap
pointed this board, consisting of an assistant
commissioner of the Internal Revenue, the three
United States District Attorneys of New York,
Breinklyh and Jersey City and the .Aesistent
Trensurer of New York. He did not believe that
all those officers could be subsidized by the
whisky,people, and, therefore, the Secretary had
acted wisely.
Mr. Schenck remarked that his objection was
that the Board was an extra -legal commission,
with powers equal.to those of the Commissioners
of Internal Revenue, and even-of the Secretary of
the Treasury. He thought it aglaring instance of
departmental legislation, and that the law-,
making power should be a little jealous of its pri
vileges and rightly , and<itat the Secretary of the.
Treasury knowAhat he does not make law; but
-must confine himself to the enforcement of law.
Mr. Barnes sustained the action of the Secre
tary, and said that since the appointment of the
Board whisky had gone up forty cents a gallon.
He related instances of the frauds of distillers,
and of the collusion of revenue officers, and men
tioned the, seizure three times of a lot of contra
band whisky, and its being surrendered "on pay
ment to the officers sewing it of $1,200, $1,600
and -$2,200. He believed the whisky manufac
tured this year would reach two hundred million
gallons, twice as much as/ the consumption, in
consequende of the facility of evading the re
venue laws.
Mr. Van Wyek also defended the action of the
Secretary. The frauds upon the revenue were
committed not so much by distillers as by officers
of the government, who winked at these frauds
and participated in them. „
— MrT - Schenck-complained-that-the-Secretary_of_
the Treasury kept his "brood of rascals" in office,
end then appointed a committee to watch them.
He (Mr. Schenck) sympathized as little with these
rascals as the gentleman from New York (Mr.
Van Wyck)-did. He had been reliably informed
that one of the district attorneys on the board
had introduced as subordinates his brother, his
brother-in-law and his nephew, and that one of
Aimee relatives, from being excessively poor, in a
few weeks became a man of considerable means.
Mr. Butler read a section of the. Internal
Revenue law, from-which he derived the Secre
tary's power to organize the board. • "
Mr. Ingersoll defended the action of the Seem-,
tary, - and claimed that it was necessary for the
I protection of Western distillers. The city of
Peori4, where Ahem had been twenty distilleries
in operation,. paying the government $200,000 a
month, had not now a single distillery in opera- •
lion, owing to the frauds of New York distillers.
The eite , .of New York made more illicit whisky
than ell the rest of the United States put together'.
the - New York frauds could be stopped, then
the distillery business would revive-in the West,
and the Treasury he supplied with a large emount
of revenue. He hoped the House would' take no
action toward depriving the Secretary of the
Treasury of the power which he was rightfully
exercising.
Mr. Kelley asked Mr.lngersoll what he thought
of Mr. McCulloch's action in turning out of office
men of experience and worth, and putting in
their placeswithout experience,and 'Without
moral or political convictions.
Mr. Ingersoll replied that he bad no sympathy
politically with the Secretary of the Treasury;but
ho had never seen any evidence of the Secretary's
having connived or winked at auy frauds.
Mr. Kelley wanted to know whether Mr. Inger
soll bad ever heard of honest and experienced
officers being putout of office,and men of known
bad character put in. If not, he was the only
member of the Honse who did not know it.
- Mr. Ingersoll replied that he hail never heard
of the case presented. He - had suffered some
himself in the removal of officers in his district,
.brit be ilia /10t believe the Secretary of the
Treasury had an.r.nik tai db . ri'e, be
lieved the President had directed the removal of
the Collector, but he had appointed another man
-whose-character- for--irdegrity_was_ beyond re
proach.
Mr. Schenck asked Mr. Ingersoll what member
of the-Cabinet, except the Secretary of the-Treas
ury, entirely endorsed the President in all his pol-.
icy, and demeaned himself so -- low as to Make a
dirty, blackguard attack upon Congress.
Zr. Ingersoll replied that the . gentleman had
answered his own question.
"Aye," broke in Mr. Kelley, "and who de
nounced the gentleman himself" as a tinker,"
[Laughter.]
Mr; Ingersoll adiriltted, with a laugh, that he
was one of the 190 tinkers referred to,
Mr; Ingersoll asked Mr. Kelley whether he be
lieved the Secretary to be dishonest because, he
had spoken of them as tinkere ?• • " •
Mr. Kelley replied that the lieeretary had set
mismanaged his deptd.tinent that, the distillers in
his (Mr. Kelley's) district did not pay the Govern
!Went $lO,OOO a month. He believed they would
ive security to pay $120,000 a month if the
leeches of the revenue department could be kept
off them;
Mr. Ingersoll retorted that 'the distillers of
Peoria would pay a million 'of dollars if the
leeches of Philadelphia 'Could be kept from
making illicit whisky.
Mr. - Kelley inquired whether that was to be
done by turning out honest and experienced offi
cers, and putting in men whom neither political
party knew or would own ?
Mr. Ingersoll did not Approve of such things.
.Ile wanted no honest 'or ciemble men turned out
of Office.
Mr. Kelley said he' given the Secretary of
the Treasury notice thet - the career which he was
iteen--entethig on woted cost the Government
fiftvinifilens of &Men, and it had already cost
thaloveitment - froM sixty to eighty millions.
Mr. Lagefsoll'iniDired what career he referred
to.
Mr. Kelley t'elAied that he referred to the cases
of turning out '4 the capable men in his depart
ment, and app Ling men whom neither party
would own, wie, , had no, political or moral prin
ciples, and 44- no were ready to follow any flag
that opened au avenue to plunder.
Mr. Schenck, in closing the discussion, said it
was the Secretary's own fault in having as his
subordinates in New York men whom he himself
charaCterized as a set of rascals.
The question was taken on -Mr. Van Wyck's
motion to lay the-whole subject on the table, and
It was agreed to—Yeas 68, nays 37.
Mr. Wilson (Iowa), from the Judiciary Com
mittee, reported a substitute for the Senate bill
for the further security of equal rights in the
District of Columbia. The substitute repeals the
word "white" wherever it occurs in the laws re
lating to the District of Columbia or in the el
tors or ordinances of - Washington or Georgetofh,
operating as a limitation on the rielit of any
elector in the District to hold any office or to be
• selected and to serve as a juror, uud makes it un
lawful for any person or officer to enforce or
attempt to enforce such limitation.
After some questioning and a brief explana
tion, the amendment was agreed to,, and the bill
as amended was passed.
The Speaker asked leave to present, and have
referred to the Reeonstruetlon.Counittee, a pro
test from one Senator and five Representatives
of the Legislature of Arkansas against their
being prohibited by the military authorities front
compelling the attendance of absent memberS.
Mr. Boyer objected to the reference, and the
Speaker said he would present the protest to the
Journal Clerk under the rule. Adjourned.

(Signed) H. MuCs Li.o. ft, Secretary.
E. A. Rollins. Commissioner. .
It will be obkrVed that the duties devolved
upon the Commission are._ehielly advisory. _The
authority for creating it is founded iu the general
scope and Apirit of the Internal. Revenue laws,
which clothe the Secretary of the Treasury and
the Commissioner ollnternalßevenue with po ver
to enforce them by the use of such means as to
them may seem to be judicious, not inconsistent
with the provisions of these laws. It is a mat
ter of public notoriety and painful interest to
those who are cheerfully bearing their portion of
the public burdens, that the Internal Revenue
laws.in . regard to distilled spirits have been
shamfully violated and set at naught th rO.OgII
- the country, and especially . in the city of
New York.
The Department has used every exertion
through the ordinary Instrumentalities to correct
thla evil, but without success. Officers have been
not only inefficient in the discharge of their duties,
but in many cases they have been suspected of
direct complicity with dishonest men to defraud
the Government. 'Satisfied that the means here
tofore employed for the purpose were insufficient
to suppress fraud and to expose and bring to
punishment dishonest officers, and convinced
that a faithful enforcement of the laws in the city
of New York is necessary to secure,the collection
of the tax upon distilled spirits throughout the
country, and of vital importance to the welfare
of the entire public service, I feel it my duty to
exercise, in a special manner, the supervisory
powers conferred upon me by law.
The couree that has been taken in creating the
..'smsr,i-Akon referred to is believed to be strictly
linalts:ot those powers, and to , confi
dent are both myself and the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue that good Mutts will be at
tained by it, that unless Congrsm shall disap
prove of our action, incasnrifs will be taken to
organize similar commisslotrs in other cities in
which the Government islargely defrauded .of its
revenues.
The Board of New York has. been so recently
instituted that the advantages to be derived - trout
it cannot now be properly estimated. but it is be
lieved that in consequence of its labors, the re
moval of spirits nn fraudulent bonds ha's ceased.
and illicit distillation largely decreased. The vio
lence with which it has becu assailed by some,
who, to say the least, do not favor an honest ex
ecution of the law, affords encouraging evidence
that it is a movement in the right direction, and
that distillers may yet be compelled to bear with
others their portion of the burdens of the public
debt.
In conclusion it is proper for me to remark
that,the Board in New York was created with
the concurrence and advice of the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue, whose untiring efforts to
enforce the law against the powerful interests
which have combined to evade and violate it,merit
the thanks of every honest taxpayer in the coun
try. Inclosed will be found copies of all docu
ments and correspondence relating to this Board
that firm of record or on file in this deli:lrma . or
its bureaus.

fiecretary of the Treasury.

THE AMENITIES OF MARRIED LIFE.—In the
Divorce Court in London, last month, the case
of Forth against Forth was a suit by the husband
for divorce, on account of the wife's cruelty.
The parties were married in 1857, and their life
since then seems to have been made up of violent
quarrels. Mr. Forth was called, and stated the
various acts of cruelly of which he complained.
Among them was au attempt to throw one of the
children by -.the first marriage into the film
throwing candlesticks at the 'petitioner; scratch
ing his thee; throwing the contents of a milk-jar
over him, and then pitching the jar at his head;
burning the nose of his eldest child, and also
burning his own face-with! a lighted paper, and
singing his hair; laying his forehead open with
the heel of a boot; throwing a baking-dish with
a fruit pie in it at him, the contents going all
over him; burning his sermons, papers, and
books: breaking his furniture, and threatening to
burn the house. The Judge pronounced a decree
of judicial separation.
PAUPERISM IN ENGLAND AND W.trars.,--A re
turn appeared in England in June relating to
poor rates and pauperism, which completes the
series for the parochial year 1860-'67. In Eng
land and Wales the last
_week of the parochial
year was higher than the last week of the Christ
mas quarter by 78,085 paupers. The paupers in
receipt of relief on the last day of the last week of
March were—in 1865, 959,903; 1866, 907,201; 1867,
982,477. The paupers in 1801, as compared with
those in 1800, have increased 76,276 or,. 8.3 per
cent.; but compared with 1
805, the increase was
22,574, or 2.4 per cent. According -to the returns
for the month of March, the number of paupers
in London was—in 1805, 105,988; 1800, 107,801;
1807, 147,756. In 1807 the increase in the- pau
pers, as compared with those oflBoo, VMS 39,892,

the Increase was 41,708, or 39.4 per cent. •

CITY BULLETIN
,Titls WARREN AND 11'1‘.17C MN !ma
Yesterday an adjourned meeting 0f.7...the st oek
holders of -the
Company was held. at the Were of the coMpany,
for the purpose of taking into - consideration the
proposed merger of the Warren and Franklin
Railroad Company with the PliihidelPhia and
Erie Railroad Company: Mayor McMichael •
presided. .
Henry D. Moore stated the proceedings of the ,
former meeting, at which a communication to
Councils had.been ordered to be prepared. This
communication (presented on Thursday laSt) sets •
forth that there are two or three important consi- • •
-Iterations which induce the Philadelphia and
.•Erie Railroad Company to urge upon Councils
I a favorable conaideratitin of the proposed iner
, ger or consolidation of the Warren and Franklin
- Railroad Company - with the Philadelphia - .
and Elie Railroad. First, so as to secure and
permanently retain its trade with the oil regions
of Pennsylvania through which the Warren mull
Multlin road passes; secondly, by the coining
winter the' Alleghany Valley Railroad will
finished to Oil City, where it will connect with
`The Warren and Franklin road, and then, unless
that road is controlled by the Philadelphia and
Erie, its business may be directed to Pittabuilai;
and asking for a , committee to act-In conjunction
with the Mayor and stockholders to examine
inta,the subject.
Mr. Moore regretted that the proposed merger.
had been denonneedln Councils. He was sorry
that this had been the late of the communication,
as-he considered the proposed union for the best
interest of the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad
Company, as well as the city of Philadelphia.
He denied the charge that nothing had been
paid fot the stock of the Warren and Franklin
Company It had been issued to the con--
tractors in payment for the road, and to-day,
rating its stock and bonds as a basis, it hay •
not cost as much by 1400 per mile as the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad cost, repre
sented tirits - stoek - and - bonds; --- Thestock - is - not
w•rthless, as the road is carrying on an average.,
more than two thousand barrehi of oil per day,.
besides its merchandise and passenger traffic, :did
has given to the Philadelphia and Erie railroad
nearly one-fourth of its entire business. lie
hoped the committee of Councils would make a
thorough examination of the subject and look
at the rival railroad intorests of this section, con
veying and. tending to this point, with a view to.
obtain and control, if possible, Um valuable trade•
Of this, region.
(general Wister followed and .Said, that-underw
the lease by the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. of the
Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Co., the former •
maintained the -latter road, paid all the running
expenses, and retained seventy per cent. of the
gross earnings of the Philadelphia and Erie. It
might be an item of interest to the Philadelphia
and Erie to retain a larger share of the receipts
of the Warren and Franklin Rail, cad than thirty
per cent.
Mr. henry D. Moore replied that if the merger
were effected the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany would Maintain the running expenses of
the - Warren and Franklin. But these expenses
are proportionately less in the latter than in the
former ease. Therefore it is understood that if
the two roads are unitid, a heavier proportion
• than thirty per cent. of the receipts of the War
len and Franklin Railroad will be retained by the
Philadelphia and Erie. At least this will be the
aim and purpose of the directors of the latter
company.
Mr. 11 m. S. Lane said that. City Councils had
appointed a'committee to, consider the proposed
' merger. That committee will., doubtless, wake
. a
full investigation of the ease. Ile hoped that
they would do so, and *would visit Are-lung°
county for personal inspection of the Warren and
Franklin Railroad. To enable the committee to
fully itiquire Into the merits and demerits/ of the
ease, Mr.. Lane moved an adjournment until
October 4th. This was agreed to, and the meet
ing adjourned. ;
ILLEI, DIST( • I..triaN. —A Italie of police of

arrest was also made by officers of the same dis
trict of one John Maguire, who was hauling,the

supposed to have come from the place where Me-
Collom was arrested. He was charged with aid

Dougherty, residing at No. 802 South Sixth
street, was held in fl,(Xitt bail by Recorder Erma.
upon the charge of making improper overtures to
a young girl. in Washington Square, and taking
her to a drinking house in the neighborhood for
evil purposes. The girl is aged nineteen, and her
father testified she had only partially - recovered
froM an attack of fever. She was accompanied
in the 'Square by a younger Sister, to whom, it is
alleged, defendant gave pennies to get her out of
the way. While she was gone he made off with

and arrested Dougherty. •
A Trap to Catch Snot brains.
In the optical room of the Conservatoire
des Arts et 146 tiers at Paris, near a window,
is an unpretending frame, says the Labora
tory, containinglialf a dozen test tubes tilled
with powders. bearing a written descriptive d o
label by M. 'Becquerel. Should . any one
pause before this object he need no be sur
prised if an attendant politely steps forward
and closes the window shutter, for darkness
is required to reveal the beauties of the
apparatus. The powders then exhibit in
a most striking manner the phenome
non of phosphorescence, each shining \k
with a different coloied light. A similar -
series of powders has been arranged for
sale in a neat little box, and has been bronghry
under our notice by Messrs. Harvey At, Rork
wilds, of. Leeds. It is called by its French ma
kers the "Phospboroscope," t hough.t his name
has been applied to a very different instrument;
but as ifscientific toy it is likely to become
known in England as "A. Trap to Catch Sun
beams."
Most of the powders are sulphides,(
and the brightest emanation is probably from •
the tube containing Sulphide of bariuna. , The
phosphorescence may be, induced by expo
sure to daylight for a few seconds, or to the ,
li *ht of a &cc of magnesium . wire.
ANU DEATH HATE Os"I'llE WORLD.—
Statisticians have circulated that if the population
of the world amounts to between 1410,000,000,
and 1,300,000,000 persons, the lamb.'r of deaths.
in a year would be about 32,000,000. Assuming
the correctness of this calculation, says the Lon
don Lancet, the deaths each day would be nearly
8s4,000; 8,000 per hour, 00 per minute, and thuS
every second would carry into eternity one
human life from one part of the world or another.
But reproduction asserts its superior power; for
on calculating the probable annual births on the.
globe, the result shows that whereas 00 persons..
die per minute; 70 children are born, and thus the.
increase of the population is kept up.
Qum; BAGGAGE.—Among the toilet articles
which the Sultan has brought with him into the
countries uf the infidels Is an hnmense- tank of
Nile water. Ills Highness 'is...forbidden to bathe
in any lees sacred water. The transportation of
this tank from Egypt to Paris .must have cost.
homebody a very pretty sum of money. another
of the Sultan's accessories is a kind of screen,
which he uses at meals. It enables him to see t ,
other people at table without being seen him
he
self. Tradition directs that profane eyes shall not.
be able to note either the 'appetite or the absti
nence of the Father of the Faithful--doubtless a.
I convenient regulation.
CAns.—A singular cab case was recently deci
ded In London. A hackman drove a man less•
than a mile, but claimed fare for a mile—twenty
five cents. The man refused to pay more than
twelve cents, and the case was tried. The hack
man won the suit, and the ride cost the man
$1 88. The case suggests the question,when will
New York have a cab syttmi equal to-that of,Lon
don? Here travelers are daily swindled, without
redress from the courts of law. Recently a hack
man charged a man five dollars for taking him a
distance of four blocks. In London the same ser
vice would havo,,cost twenty-five cents. _
