: ‘Brazil and the Brazilians, portrayed in
..Historical ami Descriptive Sketches.) By,
Kev. James C. Fletcher and Rev.. V. F.
Kidder, D. D., eighth. revised ediUon. The
great realm of Brazil, under the enlightened
rule of Don Pedro 11, is making such rapid
advances, in civilization, that itineraries pre
pared but a few years ago will be found
ccregiously false to the factß of to-day.
, Messrs. Fletcher and Kidder, sensible of the
develo'pis&aature of their subject, have pre
parcd.fromftime to time careful editions of.
their work, the last‘of which, the eighth>
- now lies before us. It is unnecessary by this
time to say much in praise of the book itself,
long recognized as a. classic, and frequently
complimented more or iess agreeably by
translations and thetts. while Laboulayo, the
friend ol America, offers to introduce a com
plete translation to French readers by the
charm of his pen. It is not so much the
groundwork of the treatise which we desire at
present to comment on; but we wish to pre
sent some of the features which are new to
Uiejpresent edition, and which commend in
the'highest degree the watchfulness and in
dustry of the authors. Besides an exact ap
preciation of the improvement in Brazilian
exports, such as coffee and cotton, the writers
pay careful attention to those indications of
national enlightenment which' distinguish the
present dynasty: they thus indicate some
of the more important new elements in
the internal and external relations of the
country:
The Opening of the Amazon, which oc
curred on the 7th of September, 18G7, and by
which the Great River is free.to the flags of
all nations from the Atlantic; to-Peru, and
the Abrogation of the Monopoly of the Coast
Trade from the Amazon to the Rio Grande
miles of Brazilian sea-coast are open to the
do Sul, whereby four thousand
vessels of every country, cannot fail not only
to develop the resources of Brazil, but
these measures will," prove a great
benefit to the bordering Hispano-Ameri
can Republics and to the maritime
nations of the earth. ■ The r open
ing of the Amazon is the jnost significant
indication that the leaven of old, narrow,
monopolistic Portuguese conservatism .has at
IBBt worked out. Portugal would not allow
Humboldt to enter the Amazon valley in
Brazil. The result of the new policy is be
yond the most sanguine expectation. The
exports and imports of Para for October and
November, l 567, were double those of 186 G.
This is but the beginning. Soon it will be
found that it is cheaper for all Boli
via, Peru, Equador and New -Grenada
east or of the Andes to receive
their goods from, and to .export their India
rubber, cinchona, «fec., &c., to the United
States and Europe by the way of the great
water highway which discharges into the
Atlantic, than by the long, circuitous route
•of Cape Horn, or tee Trans-Isthmian route
of Panama. The Purus and the Madeira are
hereafter to be navigated by steamers. The
valley of the Amazon in Brazil is as large as
the area of the United States east of Colorado,
while the whole valley of the Amazon, in and
out of Brazil, is equal to all the United
east of California, Oregon and Washington
Territory; and yet the population is not equal
to the single city of Rto de Janeiro, or cue
combined inhabitants of Boston and Chicago.
It is estimated that a larger population cm
he sustained in the valley of the Ainazoß than
eleewhere on the globe; but it will never be
peopled until there is as complete freedom
for emigrants, and as entire absence of red
fapeism in Brazil'as exist in the United
States.
The system of emigration is improving.
In iB6O there were mistakes on the part of
the agents for Brazil at New A ork. They
were not careful enough. They accepted any
one and every one that applied for passage
under the liberal offers (which still hold
good) of the Brazilian government, and there
were mistakes on the part of many well
meaning, almost penniless adventurers from
our cities and from our own South, who sup
posed that there was a royal road to, pros
perity in the tropics without labor, and that
slavery was a permanent institution in Bra
zil. But, notwithstanding the croakers who
have returned, many Southerners have suc
ceeded and are succeeding in Brazil.
has decreased with gre at rapidity
during 18GG- <l7, and the best estimates make
the present number of slaves 1,400,000—-a re
duction by the mild process of law and cus
tom of 1,000,000 Bince 1853. The Emperor
took the initiative at the last session of Par
liament, and invoked legislation upon this
most important subject- Dr. A. M. Perdigao
Malheiro, an eminent advocate at Rio, has
puhliflhed a most important and convincing
pamphlet on this question, entitled A escra
vidai' no Brazil (Slavery in Brazil).
Direct taxation for the first time in Brazil
has been brought about by the exigencies of
the Paraguayan war, a conflict which has done
more to give Brazil a national feeling than
any event since 1822.
The Paraguayan War.—The history and the
aims of this contest, now waging, have been
more persistently misrepresented than those
of any other war of modern times, with the
single exception of the misrepresentation in
England of the late internal struggle in the
United States. From November, 18G4 (the
beginning of tho war); to November, 1805,
the various battles and victories were im
partially described in the English
journals, from which source other
countries, not South American, have
derived their information. But in the
autumn of iBr,n the Brazilian government
applied in London for a loan of .£4,000,000.
Such was the competition for this, loan, and
such the confidence of English financiers in
Brazil, that £30,000,000 were subscribed.
The loan, of course, immediately went above
par. From that time to this “operators” at
Buenos Ayres and Montevideo, one thousand
miles from the seat of war, had a motive in
sending rumors and partial statements
detrimental to the allies by the English
steamer to Lisbon, whence their correspond
ence would be telegraphed to London; and
the result would he the depression of the
Brazilian loan for a few days, then when the
■‘rise” tjoh place the “operators” and their
friends could profit by their former transac
tion. In regard to the contest, Brazil had no
other alternative than war with Lopez, who
is as truly a despotic dictator as Francia was.
The origin of the war is impartially set forth
on page 353. The present position of the
allies is very much, that of the armies of the
United States at the end of 1864, when Sher
man made his famous “march to thesea” and
Grant was before Richmond.', Brazil in 1867
sent an army to the north,of Paraguayand
■ retook all the fortified porta seized bv Para
__ guay in 1864; and the allied land ana naval
forces at the beginning of 18G8, after varied
experience, were closing upon Humaita, the
tost stronghold oflthe Paraguayns,—a fortresa
. Jar more'- 'inapproachable than SehastopoL
1868 will-doubtless see a complete resolution
of a struggle who - * end Is the liberation of
Brazilian citizens and the rc-opening: (.wfcioh
Paraguay hal by solemn treaty
ebiigSuons) of tho great natural highway to
the raa for the four nations of Eastern-South
Amuicn.

Jarge and handsome volume of C 35 pages, en
riched with pictures and prefaced ;6y a fine
map and a portrait of the Emperors while the
important events Which have recently'.oc-.

tU6 advance of its civilization,'are noted with
great fulness in the proper chapters. The

The family Adviser and Guide- to the
Medicine Chest. John Wyeth & Brother,
the excellent chemists and apothecaries, have
caused to be prepared by a competent phy
sician a handy, little manual, in which the
properties of a long list of familiar medicines
are elucidated, with directions for their use
and a Scale of doses. There are also familiar
and sensible hints on the care of a sick-roonij
invalid’s diet and the treatment of accidents.
The Galaxy for Jaly.
A quantity of Bhort stories and a few good
essays, with' little poems fitted into the
chinkß, jnake up a very good number of the
Galaxy for the coming month. Marion
Harland’a “Beechdale” reaches the seventh
chapter, and is introduced by a good picture
of Homer’s. “The National Prospects and
Resources”isaplea for increased efficiency
in the Navy. The writer observes: .
“A commercial nation requires an efficient
navy; and although we have paid so little at
tention to this matter in the past, we must do
better in the future. The navy of England
has kept pace with its commercial .marine;
indeed, butfor her great arm of national de
fence, Britain would no longer have her great
commercial marine. Her national ships are
spiead all over the oceaD, affording protec
tion to the smallest vessel that carries the
British flag. The size and character of the
TEnpUah men-of-war are such that thejr com
mand respect from all nations, and their com
manders are supported in every act : tending
to the protection of British subjects or British
interests. „. . „
‘‘While we have been frittering away all
our resources on doubttill experiments, and
spending many millions on frightful, failures,
England, taking advantage of our experience,
has marched rapidly to naval pre-eminence ;
and although the issue of the fight between
the Merrimac and Monitor reduced her for
the time to an inferior naval power, she now
stands, as she has done for hundreds of years,
the mistress of the seas. The millions we
have spent have produced us nothing in the
shape of of a navy with which we could as
sert the rights that have been violated by
England—the nation which helped to drive
our commerce from the ocean.
“Our navy must be rebuilt ' on a new sys
tem, with new plans. After perfecting our
ships, we must adopt a ratio by which the size
of our navy will be in proportion to the size
of our commercial marine. That is, we must
have so many tons of naval vessels to so
many tons of commerce, and so many guns to
a proportional number of tons of naval ves
sels. ' .
“At present, we are in no condition to. as
sert our rights, and although we have nomi
nally a number of vessels on our naval register,
yet few of them cpuld render any service as
vespels of war on the ocean.
“Our squadrons on all the stations are
entirely at the mercy of one or two heavy
iron-clads such as are found in the English
and French navies, for such vessels as these
would destroy our entire force in a very short
" time. Let us hope that there will not long
be cause for anxiety, and that instead of talk
ing war againßt a nation that could do us
irreparable mischief in the event of hostili
ties, we may settle our difficulties by diplo
macy. We can, at least, take our revenge
by distancing our rival in commercial enter
prises, and snatch from England the prize by
which she has gained her strength and glory.
Let us husband our resources, build up an
army and a navy, and then our motto may be
Nevio me impunc lacessil." ,
The author of “The Church of the Future
believes that the Methodist Church fulfills the
conditions of lasting pre-eminence. For our
part we do not believe that the sects of the
lUture will gather under any creed exactly as
it now stands; but we do not deny to Metho
dism a flexibility and a persuasiveness emi
nently adapted to the needs of a growing and
unformed nation.
In the Galaxy Miscelluny Anna L. John
son lays a tribute upon the pedestal of Mar
garet Fuller. She has not much to say, but
the elegy is pure and graceful like one of the
pansieß that empurple Margaret’s grave at
Mount Auburn:
“Tried by the test of accomplishment, Mar-,
garet Fuller’s life seems almost a failure. She
has left n 6 work whose value is at all com
mensurate with her powers. Her literary
fragments fall short of representing her truly.
Her brilliant eloquence will soon be a matter
of tradition. But a life should bo judged by
what it is, and not by its resiilts.
“Measured by this standard, Margarets
life was a noble success. It is what she was
that makes her a real, vivid, personal presence
to all who are in sympathy with her. No
more magnanimous. Catholic soul; no truer,
kindlier heart; no tenderer, loftier spirit; no
sweeter, more genial, more thoroughly
womanly nature is known to the present
century than Margaret Fuller. In regard to
her faults we make no question. So strong
a personality could hardly be without them.
But remote, inaccessible, statuesque perfec
tion is no longer expected of the great few
• who influence humanity.”
The illustrations to this number are by
prominent American artists, are generally
drawn witn too much eare and anxiety, aud
are admirubly eugiaved; we believe this en
terprise of magazine-illustration by means of
large and expensive drawings, signed, and
drawn for fame, will be rewarded with steady
improvement and ultimate success. East
man Johnsona picture, carefully cut by
■ Linton himself, is able in tone, though the
faces, like all bis luces, are poverty confessed.
There is a good deal of variety and entertain
ment in the editorial department.

Parlor Recitations*
The professional “recitationiat 1 ' has now
become as useful a personage at private par
ties as the hired musician. Pcoplo who have
money enough to buy anything which can
contribute to tho company’s enjoyment—
from Clicquot champagne poured by portly
English butlers to delicious harmony evoked
hy musicians of genius—can, of course, sub:
sidize elocutionists. ’ But, for the present, it
. seems rather an awkward sort of - entertain
ment While chatting and flirting and
laughiDg are going on, suddenly a deep voioo
is heard from one end of the drawing
room, and, on turping, lo! the g'sests ob
serve an intellectual (but not necessarily beau
tiful) person, erect by a chair placed at her
side, reciting, with a calm, confidence which
contrasts with the bashful confusion of her
hearers, Poe’s “Raven,” or Longfellow s
“Building of the Ship,” or Tennyson’s “May
Queen." Is subdued whispering out of order?
Of course. . . A-ah! ’ now the recitation is
over: but it seems to have thrown a damper
on gayety. Shall we applaud? Hardly the
thing to do in a private parlor, and yet, if ex
pected, it ought to be done. . Conversation
iangs fire, because nobody understands how
to take this sort of thing. Will she begin
again? Doubtful. Yes, there she gqes,swing
ing out into “The Maniac,” or something in
that vein. i .
Such are parlor recitations, to which we
Shall get used, though they ate depressing at
first. Half of the difficulty lies in the selec
tions. VerY pathetic pieces are particularly
disagreeable and bUt of place, which is per
haps the reason , Why they are usually
chosen. Patriotic pieces should also be
tabooed, especially where it is thought
necessary to introduce a flag to heighten the
illusion. A mournful ballad, in a touching
voice, with wild gestures—even assisted,
perhaps, with a wisp or two of dishev
elled hair, is a dreadful affair, and makes
one feel very uncomfortable in listening. It •
needs a pretty artful collocation of time,
words, and manner (and, let me hint, sym
pathizing claqueurs may be made as useful
here as elsewhere) to overcome the disadvan
tages of such surroundings. Your genuine
boy will declaim “Banished from Rome,
on the school stage with the full vigor
of his lungs; but he resents as a kind of
fraud the rehearsal which the family in
sist on at home, while mother goes on
placidly knitting, both sisters reading, and
brother Tom drumming a Bubdued accom
paniment with his boots, and twitching the
dog’s tail at appropriate, passages. The at
mosphere is unfavorable to effect, ana he
feels it. In like, manner, the narrow compass
of a parlor, in which is collected a rather
unsympathizing audience intent on private
enjoyment of its own manufacture, is a bad
atmosphere for the professional reader. To
avoid being a bore, he or she must have a
■ good, deal of tact, must be shy of pieces
which' require lungs, entreaties, or going
down upon the knees, and, in drawing upon
; the feelings of the assembly, must draw it
* very mild. — Galaxy.
A RiKb-Toned poms-Broalier-The
Amenities of Butglary.
[From tho Alta California of May 8.)
The other night a -well-to-do citizen was
roused from his slumbers by something
stirring in his room, and starting' suddenly
to his feet stood face,to face with a genuine
live burglar. ' , „„ ,
“What the -—• are you doing here ? de
manded the proprietor of the house, with a
voice that trembled a little with hohest rage
and natural excitement. Thereupon the
burglar presented a very ugly-looking knife,
as the citizen discovered
"By the misty moonbeam’s struggling light,
And tho (street) lantern dimly burning, ’
and thus delivered himself: “Gently, my
good friend, gently 1 I don't want to hurt
you, I assure you, and as I have got through
with my work for the night, am prepared to
leave you in peace; but don’t attempt, to
touch me; if you do, I must act upon the first
great law of nature. That law I need hardly
say is self-preservation. I am, sir, a gentle
man-reduced to follow the dirty business at
which you have surprised me, by untoward
circumstances. I have seen better days, and
am not a thief by choice or natural depravity
of heart If I had my choice, I should be con
ducting a bank with a capital of eight or ten
millions of dollars; but financial operations of
that extent are at this time a little beyond my
means. Now, don’t stir or attempt to call
for help before I get out of hearing, or it will
be worse for you. It is painful to me to be
compelled to put you to this trouble, but cir
cumstances over which I have no control
compel me to do it. Good-night, or rather, I
should say, good morning, sir!” and he
quietly backed to .the door, bowed solemnly,
and departed as he came, our friend not hav
ing the heart to hurt the feelings of such a
gentlemanly and high-toned burglar, under
the circumstances. It is needless to say that
the gentleman who had seen better days car
ried off everything of value which fell in his
reach that night.
A few mornings later, a wealthy member
of the medical faculty, who resides in the
immediate vicinity, discovered on rising in
the morning that the lower part of his house
waß all open, and that somebody who had no
legal right to be there had been through it.
There was nothing missing, save a fancy
plated candelabra from the mantel, whicn
was found wrapped up in a cloth and thrown
into the'neighboring premises, and a fancy
Japanese cabinet.. Next day, the front door
bell was rung, and on going to the door, the
servant found the cabinet, wrapped m a cloth
covered with sand and dust, standing on the
doorstep. On the top of the cabinet was a
letter,' written in a faultless hand, and gram
matically worded, aS follows. We copy ver
batim :
San Francisco, May l, 18(18. — Madam:
I called, uninvited, at your residence this
morning. Having spent the previous por
tion of the night conviviallyj all my ideas
were confused, and, to my chagrin, day
dawned as I entered your dining-room. This
is the reason I did not explore your sleeping
apartments tor money, watches, et cetera, and
I took your gem of Japanese art from pique
at my disappointment, and hid it under the
sidewalk in the sand, as people were gazing
curiously at it. „
I If 1 had got to business at IA. M., your
house and that of your neighbors adjoining
would have been stripped by 3 A. M.;' as it
is, I have ftirnißhed another filustratipn of the
folly of attending to business after pleasure.
Seeing the well-selected books on your
shelves, the Bible on youretagere, the portrait
of the immortal Webster on your mantel, I
judge that you are neither a foreigner nor
a Democrat, hence I return your property,
and pledge my honor never to annoy you
more.
I came to California firmly resolved to be
honest in a strange land; hunger and cold
- forced me back into my old - careerj but
when I have got out of the present scrape I
will cut my throat rather than steal again,
' If you are pious, pray for me, for 1 have a
mother whose cfay hairs would go down in
sorrow to the grave if she knew of my miser
able fete.

Senate. . -vr ■- i
The Chair appointed as the Select Commltteo of
seven, called for In Mr. Sbcraan’s bill, Messrs, tjher
mnn, Sumner, Chandler, Pomeroy, Stewart, Buckalew
and Vldicrs. Tlie bill provides for the sepirate incor
poration' of the “Washington and New York Railroad, *
the Washington • and Cleveland Railroad and Tele
graph Company, and the Washington and Cincinnati
Railroad and Telegraph Company,” which are all
made subject to the restrictions that they shall not,
without the consent'of Congress, consolidate their
utcck and franchise with those of "parallel or compet
ing roads, or by means of consolidation or transfers of
atockrhave power to connect with, and use oa part of
their line, any railroads now constructed, and that
their tariff shall not exceed three cents per mile for
ordinary first- class passengers, nor six cents per tin
for ordinary, flrat-ciaes freights, with charges for
other classes In proportion. Howovcr, tho Cleveland
lino may connect at PI taburgh with some existing
road to Cleveland, or bo constructed the entire length,
at the pleasure of the company. The schedule time to
New Y ork on tho alr-llne Is not to exceed sevonhours
for mall and passengers. The list of Incorporators of
the latter road is charged from that already pub
lished by the omission ot a number of names, and the
substitution ot those of Jay Cooke, Geo. W. Riggs
and othcra in their stead.
NATIONAL CUUIIEKCY.
At a few minutes past two o'clock, tho pending bill
In regard to the national currency was again taken up.
the question being on the amendment of Mr, Davis
•proposing to withdraw a pro rata amount from the
States having an excess of banking capital, and dis
tribute It among those*requiring ltto place them upon
an equal footing with tho former.
Mr. Vah Winkle took the floor, and Bald ho was
willing to accept the provision for the §20,000,000 In
crease, In lieu of something better.
Mr. Davis followed In support of hla amendment,
and pointed ont tho Inequality ot the present distri
butlori, and said If hla plan was not adopted, another
juetmodcof raising the 820,000,000 would be the re
duction of the army and navy.
Mr. Conkliso was in favor of the principle of the
amendment, and suggested a' modification specifying
the amount of the withdrawal from the excess of
§20.000.000. >-
Mr. Davis accepted the suggestion; and tho amend
ment was so modiiled.;.
Mr. Hendiucks was also lh favor of the prla'.lplo Of
the amendment! In hla opinion, however, It was
merely a question of profit to those engaged
ing. Establishing a bank In a Btate could hot keep
money jherolf tho laws of trade urged it elsewhere,
any more than the establishment oia mint In a cer
tain city prevented coin from flowing where the de
mand existed. He thought that the credit of tho gov
ernment being tho basis of the banks under tho pres
ent system. it would bo better to issue bills directly
from tbc Treasury, and he was in favor of withdraw
ing gradually from the system, which be considered a
stupendous folly. In a few years then tho people
would have a currency not taxed; then with a redac
tion of the expenses of tho army by 550,000,000, which
could be done as suggested by the Senator from Ken
tucky (Mr. Davis), and dispensing with tho Freed -
men's Bureau, the people conld easily control the pres
ent financial dUflcoltles. A reduction of the whisky
tax and some farther modifications of taxes, would
also prove very beneficial.
Ur. .Wilson said the Senator’s remarks reminded
him of the colpxel down East, who was In favor of
the Maine law, but agalnßt Its execution!. [Laughter. ]
He was opposed to Inflation, and would vote tor tho
amendment! He thought the greenback currency
should be gradually withdrawn, Instead of increasing
it, as the Senator’s proposition would do. A vitiated
■currency was destructive to the Interests of labor.
Wbat the country wanted was more banking capital,
not more circulation. Ho defended the present bank -
ing system, - saying that If a bank failed to-morrow,
its bills would immediately go above par.
■ Mr . Shep.has reminded the Senator that that was
■because they were immediatoly bought up by the
West for banking purposes.
Mr. Wilson was aware of the fact.
Mr. Hendiucks Inquired how a national bank bill
was more secure than a Treasury notojupon which It
v as baaed?
Mr.-Wilson replied that hla objection was to irre
deemable paper currency, whether bank bill or Treas
ury note. He pronounced the whole system of paper
currency as in the interest of jobbers and speculators,
and against the Interests of the laboring men of the
country, and said he was in favor of getting back to
specie payments
Mr. Hendebson urged tho impolicy of contraction,
signing that the demand of the business of tho
country rather called for expansion. He questioned
Hie propriety of a speedy return to specie payment:
the cry far it waa a myth and n humong. It would
mot last six months li it were resumed. He denied
Shat the §20,000,<X0 increase was an inflation of tho
currency. In reply to a question by Mr. Morton, no
Bald every attempt of Great Britain to fix a time for a
return to spcclo payment after their continental war
resulted in disaster. In his opinion, nntil mercantile
and agricultural prosperity had built up foreign
balances in oar favor, it is ldlo to talk aboat a return
2o specie payment. lie said New England had blown
a bladder, and thought itself rich; bat they forgot that
their property had not been destroyed by the war, as
liad been tbc case In the. West; they had Bold their
products to the West to replace the ravages of the
■war, receiving good bonds In return, which they now
desired to appreciate, and they wanted to prevent
other sections from getting any. An intimation had
been made that the Supremo Court would declare
their legal tender provision unconstitutional. They
-would theii have arrived at specie payment; bow would
they be prepared for it. He believed that the
next session of Congresß would be forced to come up
to his views, though this session thav bad feared to
touch free banking, or the taxes, or anything else.
Shortly before four o'clock,
Mr. C’anbeon asked the Senator to yield to a motion
to provide for a fixed hoar of adjournment at fonr
o'clock, saying he bad no doubt the business would
thereby be facilitated.
• Sir. Hehuekson Interrupted to eay tho Senator
need not make a long speech on the subject, as he
would not yield for any such purpose. Hla section
m as interested In this question and he would probably
speak until five o’clock.
Mr. Caiiebon made an observation unheard by the
reporter, but which caused general amusement around
him.
Mr. Hendeubon paused for a moment and then
asked the cause of the merriment?
Mr. Camehon rose, readily, aßd said he had made
the remark in reply to the Senator, ‘ 'I hope to God he
-would not occupy much more time than he has done In
ihe Senate”. [Laughter.)
Mr. Hendebson—This session? .
Mr. Caneeon—To-day.
Mr. Hendebson said he had not occupied much time
recently [n speaking, and that the Senator from Penn
sylvania (Mr. Cameron) had occupied more this session
than he, as since a recent event he had participated ’
in no debate at all. He spoke a fow minutes longer In
favor of the principle of free banking, and closed by
expressing the opinion that to force a speedy resump
tion of specie payment, as seemed to be the prevailing
policy, would sorely result In disaster.
Mr. Coebett insisted and argued that the §20,000,-
•tioo Increase was nothing else than a proposition for
inflation.
Mr. Pomeboy made a few remarks In reply, when
the Benatc proceeded to vote on Mr. Davis’ amend,
jnent, and It was agreed to, as follows:
Yeas— Messrs. Bayard. Bnckalew, Cameron, Cole,
Corbett, Conkllng, Doolittle, Ferry, Harlan. Hen
dricks, Howe, McCreery, Morrill of Vermont, Morton,
Patterson of New Hampshire, Patterson of Tennessee;

Jbnll, Vickers, Willey, Wilson and Yates—2B.
A r at«—Messrs. Anthony. Cattell, Chandler, Cragin,
Fessenden, Henderson, Howard, Morgan. Morrill of
Maine, Kye. Ross, Sherman; - Sprague, Von Winkle,
IVace and Williams—lo. "
Mr. SiLEiniAN said tho Senate having decided to
■prohibit any bank Increase,- except withdrawing It
from three or four New England Btates, he had care
fully prepared an amendment in Hen- of that of the
Senator from KentuckyfMr. Davis), which wasnot,
in bis opinion, properly framed, and which he hoped
: ihat Senator would withdraw for the purpose.
He read his substitute and continued, saying while
he was glad the Senate hod decided to withdraw a
email percentage of bank circulation from the Bast,,
be could assure them that if they should adjourn
without giving on Increase to the West and South, It
would give rise to a wide spirit of dissatisfaction, If
hlo amendment was adopted those States having none
now would have aflocal circulation by Blow and grad
ual process, according to the law. - ?
The Comptroller or the Currency was to distribute
the circulation, one-half accbrding to. population, and
-one-half according to hnsiness requirements, and the
result, would.be, that New York would be found to
have no; more than its proportion; 'and the only
Sfgtes affected would probably be Massachusetts, Con
necticut, Rhode leland,-and possibly Maryland and
Vermont, .Certainly ndt more than six or seven'Statcs
■wouldbecalled upon tofumleha cent. = -
Mr. .Bucicat.ev,' reminded the' Senator -that some
-days since herhkd said that hc would regard a certain
vote to postpone as a test vote on the proposition con
tained In the first section of the bill forbidding one
national bank to pay interest on the balances of any
•other; ‘
, . Mr.,Sheehan explained. that several Benators had
this voted merely to give time for examination.
Mr. Chandler moved to lay the bill on the table,
in order, he said, to avoid three orfour days’ discus
sion. Rejected—yeas 31, nays 22, ob follows:
Xms— Messrs.Ahthony. Bayard, Bnckalew, Came
ron, Chandler, Conkling, Conness, Corbett, Doolittle,

ison of Tennessee. Pomeroy.'RosSj Sherman, Sumner,

son— 22:. v .•■■■.?
Mr, chandleb then moved to strlko. ont the first
section ot the bill, and proceeded to argue thelnjus-
Uco to t he country bankß of forbidding them thus to
employ their surplus capital to advantage, advancing
substantially!he same considerations urged on a pre
vious occasion. .-.■■■ .
motion to adjourn was lost—yeas 15, nays
Mr. Cattell defended the section. Insisting that
it' waß Illegitimate banking, to pay Interest on the
balances of another bank, pointing out that the New
' York Bank of Commerce had refused to do such bust
jiess, ana that the. best bankers are opposed to it. lie
quoted the opinion of the Comptroller of the Cur-
rcncy to thc same effect, and whose recent report he
highly eulogized- ' ’ - ■■’••■ ?
At hhlf-past five Mr. Chandlub again rose to reply,
but a motion, to adjoum.prevailed, despite the pro
test'd Mr. < Sheehan, and at 5:40 the Senate ad
journed.
.. . Hotuie of Representatives.
The House tuen, ot half-past two. procecded to the
consideration Of the bid reported by the Committee
on Commerce, making appropriations for the repair,
preservation and completion of certain public works.
Mr. Eliot made a five minute speech in defense of
tbe general principles of the bllL .
Mr. WAsmumxE, of . Illinois, moved to'strike ont
the paragraph appropriating §40,000 for tho imprdve
ment of Wisconsin River, ana argued that that river
could not be made navigable to steamers under a.cost
of $3,000,(00; In fact, tbc project of making it navi
gable bad been practically abandoned several years
ago. He bad been In favor of liberal aopropriations
for river and harbor Improvements when there waa
money In the Treasury, blit times bad changed, and
he confessed that his views on the subject of making
appropriations for mere local Improvements had been
much-modified;
- Mr. Allison replied to the remarks ot Mr. Wash
burnc, and denied his statement that tbc Wieconsln
River could not- be made practically navigable by
steamboats. Heregarded It as the most important
item In the bill, because it affected the great grain
growing region of the West, and also affected the cost
oi breadstuffs In New England;
Mr. Wasubuiin, of Wisconsin, advocated the ap
propriation,. and stated the: great lmportancc'ol tho
work.'
Mr. Woodwabd stated that the tronblo about im
proving tho navigation ot the Wisconsin River was
that in summer there Is no water In It.
Mr. Washbubn, of Wisconsin, contended that
there was abundance of water In It if it could only be
controlled by engineering appliance. ..
Mr. Cobb advocated tbo appropriation, and replied
to the remaiks of Mr. Wnshbarac, of Illinois, con
tending that the river conld be made navigable all tbo
year with a moderate expenditure.
Mr. t cofield argued that a small river, like tho
Wisconsin, in a single State, should be improved by
local enterprise, jußt as the Monongahela River, la
Pennsylvania, had been Improved.
Mr. Hopkins argued ln favor of the appropriation,
and to show the importance of the propoaed Improve
ment In cheapening the transportation of agricultural
products, he claimed that the Wisconsin River
was capable of being made navigable at a cheaper
expense than any other water, communication there
would ever be between the Mississippi River and
tbo lakes.
Mr. Fabnswobth suggested that the Rock River,
which flows between Wisconsin and Illinois, was a
more feasible route for water communication between
the Mississippi River and tho lakes. '
Hr, Delano remarked that the hill appropriated
over §6,000,000, and that that amount was only an In
stalment ef. the‘lmmense sums which the great
schemes of Internal improvements would make neces
sary hereafter. He thought this expensive policy
should be left to aluturo occasion, when the country
would be in a better condition to enter npon It.
Mr. Eliot defended the special Item under debate,
and the general principle of the bill. The abandon
ment of the system or Internal improvement he re
garded as the most disastrous policy that could bo
pursued. The object of that particular Item was to
open a water communication between Green Bay and
tne Mississippi River, by way of Fox River and the
Wisconsin Rivet.
Mr. File advocated the general policy of Internal
Improvements. What the Mississippi Vallejfmost
needed was cheap transportation, and for that the
water routes wfould have to be relied upon. He thought
the Douse should not hesitate ot an appropriation of
$40,000 to enable tho experiment to be made by Gene
ral Warren, as to whether qr not the Wisconsin River
. could be made navigable.
Mr. Woodwabd declared’himself opposed to all
those appropriations for Internal Improvements, and
argued that the Improvements should be made by local
enterprise or by State authority. The Wisconsin
River should lie Improved In that way, as the Susque
hanna ever had been.
Mr. Eldkidge asked bim whether there were not
appropriations In the very bill for the Improvement of
the Susquehanna River?
Mr.fWooDv. AED said he did not know that fact, but
if there were he would vote against them on principle.
While the genius of the House was tested in lndeav
oring to devise means to screw money out of the peo
ple to pay to the bondholders, many of whom wcie
foreigners, he pretested agalnßt the waste of those
funds In abortive attempts to Improve Western riveiU.
which the Western States themselves should do. He
signed that tho country should concentrate all its en
ergies to reduce the national debt, which had grown
81lhOoO,ooO last montih
Mr. Paine replied to the objection that the pro
posed work was a .Wisconsin measure and had only a
local object, and said that that was a great mistake—
a measure that would cheapen the transportation of
the agricultural products of the West was a national
one
Mr. Butlsk argued that the financial condition of
the government did not warrant the making of such
experiments. He might as well ask one of the mill
owners of Massachusetts, whose mill was mortgaged,
and who waa not able to meet his responsibilities, to
go into a great experiment of improvinghls property,
and rendering It more productive. He asked his
friends from the Northwest whether they would
rather have their rivera Improved now, and have the
broad charge of extravagance made npon the party
this year, on which the power of tho government
would be taken ont ot their bands.
Mr. Banks argued that the proposition to improve
the Wisconsin River was not an experiment. He had
seen the experiment tried with success, and had seen,
by means of wing dams, steamers that had been Im
bedded from five to eight feet In the sand, floated ont
from that bed Into the Mississippi River. He had no
doubt that by tbe same means the Wisconsin River
could be made navigable.
Mr. Si-aldino Intimated that he would move to lay
tbc bill on tbe table.
Mr. Fabuswobtb agreed that this was not the
time, in the present condition of the country, to enter
on these works of internal improvement.
Mr. Washbubne, of Illinois, withdrew his motion
to strike out the item for the Wisconsin River, with
the understanding that a vote might be had on each
item in the bill.
The House proceeded to consider the items in the
bill.
On motion of Mr. Paine, the Item for the im
provement of Milwaukee harbor, Wisconsin, was in
