General Martinez, provisional and military
Governor of this State, ordered Ve as re-

right to arrest private citizens. Although
temporarily set free, Governor Vega is again a
prisoner, and confined up to hour of writing.

twac Vega's friends, numerous and influential. are
sletermined to free him by force. Bloodshed is
predicted to-night if Vega is molested or given
up to his enemies.
Reports have it that to-morrow morning Vega
will be declared Governor of this State by univer
sal assent of the people.
Well informed men say that the whole Affair
will end in the northwestern States of Mexico
declaring themselves free and independent, ask

The American man-of-war Saginaw arrived
here from the Gulf this afternoon. Her services
may be needed.

Tile Conspiracy against 3narez.
`lCorreepondence of the N. Y. Times.)
A further examination into the conspiracy
• against Juarez supplies few additional particulars
of interest. The plot had been in process of
planning some twenty days when discovered, and
appears, to have been organized under the leader
ship of Lieutenantreolonel Estevez, of the
Seventh, a Spaniard, who is said to be In league
with Santa Anna and also with Don Miguel Ne
grete, now in this city. Capt. Mendoza, of the
wane regiment, was also implicated, besides the
s 4 Spaniards, Tejides and,Casts f3otontayor, whom
wo have before mentioned, - and a Frenchman
named Charles Duffoo. It was,their intention to
allow their schemes to ripen Until Monday, the
17th of February, when Estevez would be officer
of; the day, find would be aided by Mendoza. The
latter was to withdraw from_thu _city part of the
troops and try to win over the others. But the
Government had been warned of their danger,
and had taken every precaution, and on Sunday
night and early Monday morning proceeded to
arrest all of the suspected persons, the Governor
of the District acting with most commendable
activity, until he succeeded in appre
hending the ringleaders and seizing their docu
ments and plans of conspiracy. Thus far the
exact purport of these important papers has not
been made public, but they will soon be published
in the official organ, and the public will be thus
Made acquainted with the full details of this in
famone plot. The criminals will be tried by a
military commission. The report that Col. Garza
had been compromised in this affair proves to be
untrue, for the Colonel is too true a Mexican to
be capable of committing an act of this nature.
The principal and only really able ringleader of
the scheme was the Spaniard, Estevez, and it only
brings to our notice with greater certainty the
bet that we have among us many strangers of
bad character, who are continually busying
themselves in creating disturbances of this kind.
They ought to meet with the severest punish
ment, and be hel us examples fr others,
and we trust that d
thep a
military commi o ssion, in
taking cognizance of the diabolical attempt to
assassinate our President and Ministry and rob
-- the Treasury, willbe able-to satisfy the people as
to the unmistakable guilt of the parties appre
hended, and then make examples of them all.

Baytien arrears to France for the last 3 years. In
case of an unsatisfactory reply, he Is, according
to instructions, to seize the Custom House and
collect payment himself. Conscriptions are
active, and there seems to be a special design
againt4Nealthy families. A certain Senor Car
valho4mhandependently wealthy gentleman, had
to pay two hundred thousand dollars, or be im
pressed into the service. It is supposed that he
has been killed or kidnapped. The government offi
cials are already looking after his property. Other
wealthy persons have escaped in female attire
or bid in the foreign consulates. The Caco
rebels manifest no desire for bloodshed. They
disappear for awhile and then suddenly fall on
the troops of the tyrant Sidney°. All communi
cation between Cape Hayden and Port-au-Prince

Modern Spiritualism and Vree Love
Where They Came From—Greeley
and Brisbane the Founders.
tFrom the Oneida Conference Circular 1
Albert Brisbane imported Fourierism di
rectly from Paris, where he studied under
Fourier himself and his ablest disciples. His
publications, from 1840 and onward, excited
wide and eager interest, and the thrill of
enthusiasm for social change which Owen'a
schemes had produced in 1823 was repeated
with hundred-fold power in IM2. Horace
Greeley sympathized. The columns of the
Tribune were opened to Brisbane,and'a syste
matic exposition of the charms of scientific
association was spread before enthusiastic
multitudes. The result was that in 18L3
there was a great uprising of the young and
enterprising spirits of the country in favor of
a social revolution. Fourier's millennium
- seemed b lli ely-corningimil-vors-----As—
sociations were commenced in all parts of
the country. Their plans deviated more or
less a from strict Fourierism, but they all
sought the great object of Fourierism and
Owenism and all other notable social inno
vations, viz: the substitution of large house
holds for small; which, in the long run, must
result in the abolition of private familyism.
The foremost and brightest of the associa
tions that rose in the Fourier excitement was
that at Brook Farm, near Boston. The
leaders were men whose names are now high
in literature and politics. Ripley, Dana,
Channing, Dwight and Hawthorne are speci
mens of the list! Most of them were from
the Unitarian school, whose headquarters
are at Boston and Cambridge. The move
ment really issued as much from transcen
dental Unitarianism as from Fourierism. It
was religious, literary, and artistic, as well as
social. It had a press, and at one time
undertook propagandism by missionaries
and lectures. Its periodical—the Harbinger
—was ably concluded and very charming to
all enthusiasts for progress. Our Putney
school, which had not then reached commun
ism, was among the admirers of this periodi
cal, and undoubtedly took an impulse from
its teachings. The Brook Farm Association,-
as the leader and speaker of the hundred
others that rose with it, certainly contributed
most largely to the effect of the general move
ment begun by Brisbane and Greeley. But
the remarkable fact, for the sake of which I
am_calling_anegial attentkon to .it, is,..thatt .. in
its didactic function it brought upon the
public "mind not WV anew socialism -lint a
new religion, and that religion was Sweden
borgianism.
But the spirit . of Buell an active people as
the Yankees could not receive an old and
foreign philosophy like Swedenborg's without
reacting upon it and adapting it to its new
surroundings. The old afflatus must have a
new medium. In 1843 the movement which
commenced at Brook Farm was in full tide.
In 1847 the great American Swedenborg, A.
J. Davis, appeared, and Professor Bush gave
him the right hand of fellowship, and intro
duced him into his office as the medium , and
representative of the "illustrious Swede,"
while the Harbinger rejoiced over them
both. •
•
After 1847 Swedenhorgianism proper sub
sided, and "mode& spiritualism" took its
place. But the character of the two systems,
as well as the history of their relations to each
..,
4 4,
trinttumar EVENING BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY *ARO'
other, proves them to be identical in essence.
Spiritualism is Swedenborgianism American
ized. J. Davis began as' a medium of
Swedenborg, received from' him his commis -I
sion and inspiration, and became an inde
pendent seer and revelator, only , - because, as
a son, be oingrew ins father: - The - omnis- f
dent philosophies which the two have issued
are identical in their main ideas about intui
tion, love and wisdom, familiarity of the liv- I
ing with the dead, classification of ghostly
spheres, astronomical theology, &c., &c.
A. J. Davis is more flippant and superficial
than Swedenborg, and less respectful toward
the Bible and the past; and in these respects
he suits his customers.
Modern Spiritualism, which I thus hold
and prove to be Swedenborgianism "gone to
seed," numbers its converts , by millions. The
Spiritual Register for 1859 estimated the
number of actual spiritualists in America at
1,1100,000; those who have more or less faith
in the , docrine, but do not openly espouse it,
4,000,000; public advocates, 1,000; mediums,
public and private, 40,000; places of public
meetings, 1,000; books and pamphlets, 500;
periodicals, 30.
And these millions carry in their hearts and
carry out more Or less in their lives the phi
losophies and moralities of Swedenborg.
Especially are they busy with his doctrines of
eternal dualism, mating by affinity and the
right of search; What will be the end?
The politicians are threatening the Mor
mons in the far-olf wilderness, while mar
riage is dying here in their midst. It was
struck with death in 1813. It was not killed
by the Mormons or the Shakers or the Oneida
Communists, but by Swedenborg and the
Spiritualists. On its tombstone might be
written—Died by visitation of Hades.
In my correspondence with Bush I said
that the object cf Swedenborgianism was to
destroy the Bible. But the worst things have
good in them. My final opinion is, that
while the devil meant destruction to the Bible
God meant destruction to marriage, in prepa
ration for the kingdom of heaven.

311.1 th CIONGRENIC-SECOND SESSION*
Satiates
Mr. HOMAN moved to Strike out the refined sugars
and the products of sugar relinerieri from the amend
ment of the committee continuing the tax on various
articles, and advocated his amendment, which was
oppoeed by Mr. Su - Erman and others.
Ile described the sugar manufacture an in a languish
ing condition In New York and Boston, in which
cities, if this tax were emtinned, the .25,000,000 in
voided would tie useless, and the business destroyed,
and - some - COW men thrown out of eurploymeet.
argued that refined sugars are used by the poor as well
se the rich, and no interest required more relief than
this. _
Ur. Menem( read some letters from,manufacturere
in support of thhs view.
Ur. Sitenierr opposed the amendment as calculated
to take away 02,000,000 of the revenue_ by relieving
an interest that could very well bear thgamall tax of
three per cent., leer than one quarter cent per pound.
They bad already thrown off the tax on petroleum,
losing thereby 82.500,00 e of revenue. There was a
discriminating duty on Imports In favor of the sugar
refiner of four times the amonnt of the tax, and that
duty was paid in gold while the tax was paid in cur
rency. No tax was more easily collected and more
generally diversified, an.l it was paid by the rich rather
than by the poor, who used a great deal of unrefined
sugar.
CONIIZSti said he had voted against the amend-
Went of Mr. Grimes yesterday, not because he was
opposed to a proper reduction of the tariff, hut be
cause that was net the proper time to do it. He was
opposed to continuing a tax home° it was easily col
lected. Ile would rather remit it for that reason, and
impose taxes on those who tried to evade their proper
obligations.
Be denied that it was any longer true that the refined
septa were used only by the rich. while it bad been
the Case once. No article was more generally nsect by
the mass of the people than refined sugars. Ile wish
ed the Senator from New York (Mr Morgan) had in
cluded in his amendment the other articles—coffee
with its substitutes, spices and mustardotc.,excepted
by the committee. The poor often were obliged to
use substitutes for coffee. The poor In the West tieing
harleyextenelvely for that purpose, and they might as
well tax barley.
Mr. Mono declined to modify his amendment,
and said the Senator from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) was
very much rr iste.ken In asserting that this manufae
tore of sugar was so profitable as to justify taxation.
Ile thought it the duty of Congress to so adjust the
tariff, as well as taxes, sato encourage this interest.
'Mr Oasterum said be held in his band two sped
• mew of sugar, one made In Demerara, the other in
Philadelphia, with a discrimination in favor of the
former of one per cent. per pound. He would vote
for the motion to strike out the entire amendment of
the committee, exempting various articles.
Mr. Janne:ea said the bill reduced the tax on the
_articles named one-half. The Chairman of the
Finance Committee (Mr. Sherman) had told them that
the country could not afford to lose the tax derived
from sugar, and that It was easily collected. He dep
recated the argument that a manufacture should not
be exempted because ita producers were honest, and
would pay the tax. Ile thought the Senator from
New York had shown that this interest required,
equally with othere , the relief proposed by tine bill.
The production benefited the whole country, and
thin discrimination would tend to throw that produc
tion Into foreign countries.
It was as much a necessity to the poor as to the
rich, unless made a luxury by a high tax. Why give
the woollen and cotton manufacturers the advantages
of this bill more than the sugar redpers? The Sena
tor said they wanted the money, and, yet did not at
tempt to get it from those other interests that had
made itumecee sums during the war, to whom it
might be said that they could, therefore, afford to
beer thin tax now. This interest was worth no more
during the war then at other times. The true mode
was either to reduce the whole system of taxes, or to
reduce the army and nave, and other expensai of the
government, and cut off the Freedmen's Bureau in
whole or in part.
Mr. °MECUM said that, as the amendment pro-
DANA to remove an unjust discrimination against the
City of Nev. York, he wonldsupport it in this reaped.
This interest was not alone, as nearly one-quarter of
the entire internal revenue was raised in New York:
and it would be 'remembered that about ninety per
cent. of ail the money used in putting down the rebel
lion wasobtained there.
Mr. Romtuips--Where did New York obtain the
money?
Mr. Corettnee--Not from that crucible of false
money called debts, hut from the acquisition of prop
erty in the sense of that terra when it represents the
product of human labor. Be believed the only possi
ble thing that would prevent unnecessary appropria
tions would be that condition of the Treasury which
would make It imposelble to make them without loan
bills. He looked - forward to tirade,' when that would
be the case as the era when contradictory legislation
would cease
air. Wustaxs. of Oregon. argued that there was as
much dincriminatiOn against the West as against
New York.fNewl'ork had more relief fromthis bill than
any other section. He understood that there was suffi
cient tariff still to protect the sugar . ..refiners from for
eign competition. Congress has been frequently mis
led by misrepresentations in regard to manufactures,
and though he did not charge any falsification upon
these refiners, he thought they - would not be injured
by this tax. Thecouenmers paid the tax, which was
not felt to be burdensome on such an article as sugar
as it would be on an article costing more, such as
clothlng. He reiterated the considerations that jew
elry and the other articles taxed were luxuries, and
the revenue wotdd be insufficient without these
taxed.
Mr. Davis, of Kentucky, etiggestPAl that a reduction
of the tax on whisky to fifty cents would supply
the deficit to the revalue.
Mr. Wixa,usts coupled the defense of the New
York interests with this remark, and said such was
the usual conree to tax bills.
Mr. DAVlif said that it was not the Interest of his
State that was in question; about three quarters of
the whisky manufactured In Kentucky was taken by
California and Oregon to supply the market there.
[Laughter.]
Mr. WILLIAM was glad to know that section con
tributed so larg ely to the support of Kentucky, but if
it was necessa ry to lower Mende of tax on whisky to
silty cents in order to keep the citizens of Kentucky
honest. it would be well to call this a bill to promote
honesty in Kentucky. [Laughter.]
Mr. Dam replied that one barrel of old Bourbon
sent from his Rate to New York, Boston and else
, where was manufactured into three barrels of *.lled
eve" (laughter), and it was there that these great
frauds were committed.
Mr. WILLIADL4 would leave that question to be set
tled between that Senator and the Senator from New
York.
Mr. MonniLL, of Vermont, opposed the amendment.
To leave this deficit in the revenue, that had been
shown by the Chairman of the Finance Committee, ho
called another species of repudiation. He would, at
the proper time, offer an amendment to retain the
duty on raw sugar also.
Mr. Fturuniorrtrysm, of New Jersey, would vote
against the amendment of Mr. Morgan, and then
against the amendment of the committee. He thought
all the manufactures of the country should be ex
empted, and that the result would be a greater revenue
ultimately.
The amendment 4:4 Mr. Morgan was lost by they fol
lowing vote:

Mr. Minoru., of Vermont. then offered his amend
ule.nt striking out theprovition in reference to refined
sugar, and inserting one including all sugars, except
those produced from sorghum or inphee.
Mr. ViN WINKLE, of West Virginia, opposed the
amendment as taxing the_produce of the earth, and,
one rmuiring protection. The motion was lost.
Mr. cONNESS, of California, moved to strikeout the.
amendment of, the committee to section 1, leaving it
as it peaked the House, striking out the tax on tur
pentine, coffee and its substitutes, spices, refined su
gar, jewelry, &c.
Mr: SKSBMAN reported the amount of revenue to be
derived from these taxes.
The amendment was adopted by the following
vote:

The amendment of the Committee on. Yinance con.
tinning certain taxes, moved yesterday, was lost—yeas
2i nays 18.
The question recurred on the amendment of Mr. Van
Winkle, adopted on Tuesday in committee, reducing
the tax on petroleum one-balf .
Mr, llininwert again urged the neteeeity of retaining
:the full tax.
. ,
Mr. VAN Wiliam' repeated the view taken by him
heretofore in regard to the inequitable nature of the
Mr. finsamax said if his people were as much in-.
- tereeted - inletoVering . the tax on petroleum as were
;the people of New York in regard to refined sugar,
_ and this was a high rate of tax ' whereas that was-. a
low rate; nevertheless, it was an article that could
'.bear it, he would vote to leave the tax as left by the
HOIIBO.
Mr. "FassztrnEN said the Secretary of the Treasury
had very properly paid a portion of the pablic debt
'from the surplus revenue. He was not responsible
, I?tit to Congret.s for that surplus. Congress had acted
rightly In, immediately after the close of the war, re
moving the burdens' of taxation; but they still must
carry on the government ; and not legislate to melte a
good showing to the people at the coming Presiden
tial election. The true, principle was to calculate on a
surplus of rover no over expenses; and because they
had a surplus in times of prosperity they could not
calculate on the same result in a Beason of depression.
The Chairman of the Finance Committee(Mr. Sher
man) had shown, one close calculation, a deficit or
4115.4.11). WO or $10,00400, even on the suppoaition

In bis opinion the estimate of the 'Senator from .
Vermont (Mn Morrill) of forty millions would fall
below the truth.' .JlO 100ked with , alarm' upon the
coming year. We Shako our credit it we proceed

In hie judgment theyshould first endeavor to restore

this danger.MaxatiOn wan Always opprefiive, bat the
government must be sustained, and they gained
nothing by dangerous experiments, which would
only involve the country in difficulty. [ lle could not,
in view of the probable deficiency, vote to relieve pe
troleum from tax, when he had voted to continue it
On sugar.
Mr. CORBETT, of Oregon, also felt oblig • •vo •
against the removal of these taxes.
Mr. BOORALEW thought they could safely repeal the
whole internal tax. Petroleum was an article of ex
port, and very different from most of the articles ex
empted from tax by this bill, in being one of neces
sity and general use. Senators should, in a spirit of
fairness, not discriminate against this article, merely
because its production was confined to two or three
States, and was not more generally distributed.
Mr. WILLEY, of West Virginia, asked whether even
with this amendment, petroleum was not taxed
higher than any other article ?
Mr. bugumashreplied in the affirmative, excepting
tobacco and whisky.
The amendment of Mr. Van Winkle was agreed to
by the following vote :
Ycard—Messrs. Buckalew, Cameron. Cattell, Conk

Corbett, Dixon, Drake, Ferry , Fessenden , Howard,
Morgan, Morrill, of Vermont, Pomeroy, Ramsey,

On the amendment of the committee providing that
no drawback shall he made on the exportation of any
article of domestic manufacture after the first of
April next,
Mr. lionoar, of New York, moved to amend by
inserting after the word drawback the words "on ac
count of internal taxes paid," which was agreed to.
The remaining amendments were also agreed to.
Mr. EDMEEDO, of Vermont, moved to substitute the
following as a substitute for the first section :
That the rates of taxation provided in section 01 of
an act entitled an act to provide, internal revenue and
support the government, and to pay interest on the
public debt and for other purposes, approved June
SO, 1804, or in the act amendatory of said section,
shall hereafter be one-half of the rates now provided',
except on wines in said section described, and on
snuff, and all other manufactures of tobacco, includ
ing cigarettes, cigars and cheroots.
Mr. GraxEs. of lowa, moved to adjourn.. Lost.
Mr. Edmunds' amendment was lost—yeas 10, nays
32.
Mr. TRUMP:I7LX, of Illinois, offered the following
amendment, which he thought would meet the antici
pated deficiency;
"That on and niter the lat of April, 1868, in lieu of
the duty now imposed, there shall be levied, collected
and paid in the manner now provided by law, a duty of
$1 per gallon fcr first proof spirits, other than
brandy. manufactured or distilled from grain or other
material."
Be advocated the amendment in a few remarks,
Mr. buzzltAri thought the true way to meet this
difficulty was to lay a special tax on distilleries them
selves. Before this session closed, however, there
would be a bill before the Senate for this purpose.
Be thought it should be left until then.
Mr. Douro. of KentnelY, offered a substitute pro
viding that from and after the 30th day of June next:
there shall be paid by the distiller on whisky, of any
proof, ..50 cents on each and every gallon thereafter
distilled, and no more.
Both amendments.were loot.
Mr. Bra - omens moved to amend by adding at the
end of the first
.section the words on diamonds,
emeralds, precious stones, and imitations thereof, and
on all jewelry."
The amendment was not agreed to, and the bill was
passed by the following vote :

Mr. &amt.!: said Mr. Grimes and Mr. Ramsey,
who were absent, had paired off. The latter would
have voted for the bill, and the former against it.
The bil, as passed by the Senate, reads as follows:
Be It enacted, itc.. That sections ninety-four and

The bill goes to the louse for concurrence in the
amendments.
On motion of Mr. Monsin.L, of Maine. the Po:;tot
flee appropriation bill waa made the special order to
morrow.
At half- plat five o'clock the Senate adjourned
House of Itepresenta.tives.
• Mr. ELIOT,of Massachusetts, closed the debate.
Before proceding to answer the remarks made against
the bill, he desired to brush away a teal slander which
had found a mouthpiece here to-day. He did not
know that the gentleman from New York (Mr.
Wood) was to be congratulated on having found an
opportunity to inject into the discussion a slander
born of private ill-will.' There was no slander, Mona
or so destitute of truth, that would not, when thrown
on the air by an envenomed tongue, find some friendly
voice to give it circulation and the offspring of this
calumny might himself be congratulated at the off
spring of Ids mind and heart having found a lit god
father in the gentleman from New York. When
that slander first came to his (Mr. Bliot's) notice, he
Lad addressed a note to the Commissioner on the sub
pct. and be would read his answer to the House. It
is as follows.
WABIIII7O'TON CITY, February 18,•1868.
To the lion. T. D. Eliot.
DEAR bin: You have called ray attention to an ab
surd charge made against me that I have said or done
something which looked as if I favored the intermix
ture by marriage of the white and black population.
This charge originated with certidomenwho hate me.
Of„ course, there is not , shadow of truth - in At.; In
'the Bateau work promoting inerriagris I have bad
no Ciise,of this kind to act oni.and known at
my office.' As a Board the Truatees,have never con
sidered the subject, and have,xlintr,to My knoWleilgo,
privately or of sought to do set.:Whatever words
I may have need, this charge isnettne.• !;
04 0. BoWinn,l
' , Major-General, Cdtamissioner,
Mr. ELIOT said he ought to believe that the gentle
man from New_York was glad to have this slander
nailed to the counter.
Mr. Woon—Will the gentleman allow me to produce
my'_suthority?
Mr. EL i
lOT--IS t signed "Brown?"
Mr. Woon--No, sir.
Mr. Buor--If the gentleman has . got a name to his
author_ily, he may give it.
W
Mr. oon—will the gentleman. allow the. Clerk to
read the authoriti.which I was very careful, to any I
would not guarantee.
Mr. Rum- -No? , shq -it is an anonymbus common I
cation, and I want no such thing read. g
Mr. Woon--If the gentleman does not want the au
thority-- •
Ei.toT--It Is no better authority than thogen
tlemao himself. [Laughter on the Republican didoo.)
Mr. Woon--I begin to suspect there is some un
dation for it, or the gentleman would not be so sensi
tive.
Mr. ELtor_ went on to say that the rumor that flea.
eral Boward,had grown wealthy in connection with his
administration of the Freedmen's Bureau was also
false, foul. and scandalous.
Mr. Wants, of Maine, added his denial to that of
'Mr. Eliot, and declared that a more upright or, disin
terested man than General Howard, did not es t in
the United States, and that any gentleman who ado
an opposite charge only disgraced and dishono him.
Belt in 50 doing. '
Mr. WOOD remarked that if the, gentlemen o the
other aide wolud give him a committee of ince iga
.
THE DAILY EVENING BIILLETIN.-PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAL MARCH 20, 1.868.
Um he would prove Borne of the etsteniento to be
Mr. Huo+—General Howard has lost' his' right arm
in the service of the country.
Mr. BLearn--An offense which cannot be forgiven
on the other side of the House.
Mr. Hr.rox —But his bout is right. There are
some who have both arms, whose hearts MO not
right.
• The debate being dosed,
Mr. ADAM, of Kentucky, moved to lay the bill on
the table.
Negatived—yeas, 34; nays, 100.
Tho bill was then pursed—yeas, 00; nays. 37.
The /louse then
proceeded to dispose of the amend
ments reported two weeks Once from the Committee
of the Whole on the state of the Union, to the sundry \
civil expenses appropriation bill
Mr. Looart, of Illinois, moved — Do amend the first
paragraph of the bill by reducing the amount appro
priated for carrying into effect the several acts of Con
gress authorizing loans and the Issue of treasury
mites from $1,5011,000 to 856.1,301. Heproceeded to
state the reasons for his amendment, and to argue in
support of it. The Treasury, ho said, was not now
printing bonds pr treasury notes, and, therefore, this
item was only to go towards the pay of employes in
the Printing Bureau. That pay would amount to the
sum which he proposed.
Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania. desired to offer an
amendment that no pert of the amount should be need
for paying commissions tor the sale of bonds.
Mr. WA9IIBUIME, of Illinois, said it was entirely
unnecessary, as, it could not he used for that par--
pose.
Mr. RANDALL said he was not sure of that, and,
therefore. he wanted to provide against it.
Mr. WAKIDURNE ' of Illinois, moved the previous
question on the bill and amendments.
Mr. Wrisox, of lowa, desired an opportunity to dis
cuss some of the amendments.
The House refused to second the previous tines
.
tion—yeas 31, nays 67.
The Douse then proceeded to vote on the amend
ments, the first question being on the amendment
offered by Mr. Logan.
Mr. RANDALL offered an amendment to the amend
ment providing that no part of the sum shall be used
to pay commissions for the purchase, sale or conver
sion of the bonds or notes of the United States.
Mr. Loons-1 think that is right.
Mr. HANDALL--I know it is right.
Mr. WASH - BURNT, of Illinois, amued against Mr.
Logan's amendment, and had read by the Clerk a
letter from tht Secretary of the Treasury- on the sub
ject of the appropriation. The Secretary estimates
62,000 000 as the requisite amount.
Mr. Loney argued in support of his amendment,
and repeated the point that as no bonds or green
backs were beieg printed w, it was not necessary
to make an appropriatiofi for paper for that purpose.
Mr. BLAINE said he was glad to see that the gentle
man from Illinois had given up all idea of having an
additional ISMS of greenbacks.
Mr. Lot:Am denied that he had, and remarked that
when Congress authorized it, an appropriation could
be made.
Mr. &am stiggested that the gentleman from Illi
nois regarded that as so improbable that he did not
think it worth while to provide for it now.
Mr. Loots thought the gentleman's , own position
quite as inconsistent. as be (Mr. Blaine) was opposed
to additional greenbacks, and yet was willing, as a
member of the' Committee on Appropriations, to ap
propriate a million or dollars for paper.
The discussion baying closed, the amendment of
fered by Mr. Randall was agreed to, and Mr. Logan's
amendment thus amended was also agreed to.
SAWYER offered an amendment for the erection
of a new light-house on Lake Michigan, between Bai
ley's Harbor and North Bay. on the completion of
'which the light at Bailey's Harbor shall be discon
tinued. Agreed to.
The amendment directing the. six steam rev
enue cutters on the lakes to be laid up in ordinary
being reached.
Air. Sremnla: spoke in opposition to the amend
ment.
Messrs. WASimmuir, of Illinois, KELSI'Ir; of New
York, and Clirtipma., of New York, • advocated the
amendment. I
Mr PITERS of Maine, favored the sale of the ye-
vela In preference to laying them up, and offered an
amendment to that effect.
Mr. Wasuarturx, of Illinois, again moved the pre
vious question ;Emil the House again refused to
second It
Mr. IfuLIIUBD, of New York, offered an amend
ment directing the Secretary of the Treasury ti lay
up and withdraw from commission every revenue cut
ter on the Atlantic coast,in the Bay of New York. &c.,
that is not actually needed for constant service. He
said that he wanted to test the sincesity of the House,
and particularly of the gentleman from Illinois (Mr.
Weald - mime) on this quu3tion of economy.
Mr. Wool), of New York. opposed all these amend
ments. argn ing that the revenue cutters were of es
sent lal 'service to commerce on the sea and on the
lakes.
The &tains! amendment, as offered by Mr. Church
ill. was further advocated by Mr. Tnownmoun and
Mr. ,
Mr. WABIIIVG7tKE opposed Mr. Bulburd's amend
ment, and intimated that the effect of it would be to
aid smugglers.
Mr. lita.nunn alluded to the report of a vestel in
the Bay of New York having within the last six months
nisrbarged some Mew trunks before coming up to her
dock notwithatandirig the revenue cutters , , the owner
of which trunks indorsed the Collector of New York
no an honorable, honest man.
Mr. PIKE did not know anything about the revenue
cutters of New York, but spoke of one of the revenue
cutters at Boston having had the high distinction of.
twinging Mr. Dickens up the bay.
Mr. BANES explained that the revenue officer having
in the regular course of business, boarded the steamer
on which Mr. Dickens was a passenger, that gentle
man had come up to the city in their boat instead of
remaining at sea all night; that was the whole of the
transaction.
Mr. Hrrturitn, alluding to Mr. Washburne's re
marks, said that the insinuation was an ungracious
one. as coming from that gentleman, whose efforts at
cutting down expenses he (Mr. Ilulbard) had always
seconded. If any member had done more than him
self towards suppressing smuggling and increasing
the revenues of the government be would like to see
him.
Mr. WAsHIMILST disclaimed having made any in
timations aeainst the gentleman.
The ditcnesion having closed, Mr. Peters' amend
ment was rejected.
Mr. Hulburd's amendment was adopted, and Mr.
churchilrs amendment., as thus amended, was agreed
to.
The amendments making appropriations for the
public buildings were reached. The first being that
increasing the appropriation for the construction of
appraisers' store at Philadelphia from .$25,000 to
$75.000.
Mr. WASUBURNE. of Illinois, acting Chairman of
the Committee on Appropriations, oroceeded to argue
against this and the other amendments for public
buildings, intimating that the votes which they had
!AA tri the Committee of the Whole looked to him as.
Something of a • 'ring."
Mr. O'NEILL. of Pennsylvania, made a onestlon of
order on the expression need by the gentleman from
Illinois.
The Sra KYR pro tem. (Mr. Allison in the chair)
overruled the question of order.
Mr. WASUBURNE explained that he had not charged
there was a "ring." here. •
Mr. O'Nzu.i.—Yon intimated that there was.
l--My-rWa..aux.-1-t-tr, ur" muchtlike- 1 4inge—tbat
have been formed in the Legislature of my own State,
and, I dare say. in the Legislature of Pennsylvania.
Mr. Ross, of Illinois--I object to any imputation on
the Republican Legislature of Illinois. [Laughter on
the Democratic side.]
Mr. Wasimmtos—The distinguished kni.y,tit of the
Golden circle is not authorized to speak for the Legis
lature of Illinois. [Laughter.] This legislation is
very much like the legislation of my own State, where
a "ring" attempted to fasten on the people the _cost of
the State House, the Cairo Penitentiary, andjof the
Industrial College. _
After an excited colloquy between Messrs. Wash•
barna and O'Neill, which cans"d much amusement on
the Democratic side of the House. the vote was taken
by yeas and nays tin the amendment, and it was re
jected—yeas, 95; nays; 63.
The next amendment was to increase the appropri•
ation for the construction of a court house at Des
Moines, lowa, from $15,000 to $89,000.
The amendment was advocated by Messrs. Dodge
and Wilson, of lowa, and opposed by Mr. Washburn.,
of Illinois. •
Without taking a vote on it,
Mr. Burom, from the conference committee on the
invalid pension bill, reported thatZthe committee had
not been able to agree. and a new committee was ap
pointed, and then, at 4:40 *. m., the ROM adjourned.
