Harmony being fully re-established in the Republican ranks of Philadelphia, by the new nomination for District Attorney, the party may be considered fit to go into the real work of the important Presidential cam paign now before them.. The recess of Con gress, also, either suspends or removes the agitation among the people of various distracting public questions. And now let all good citizens go to work resolutely and actively for the election of Grant and Colfax. There are less than a hundred days between this and election day. Only eighty 'odd o these are working days. There are only from fifty to,sixty working days tili the October election. But this is ample time to do all that is needed to bring out the full strength of the Republicans, and to give rousing majori ties for the ticket in the city and the State. Fortunately, our candidates need no pulling. . : Grant's name, character and services are known the world over. His ability and pa triotism are thoroughly known here in Penn -eylvanla, where soldiers and civilians have "■* vied with each other to do honor to the great hero of the War for the Union. Colfax is r equally well known lor a different kind of v service, that has been scarcely less valuable. J The two men, brought togetner, before the . people of the United States, for the highest " offices in their gift, are entitled to- that most telling recognition—a full vote. To secure them this, every good Repablican must make up his mind to work. The Republicans of Pennsylvania have, ~ on their State and city tickets, the names ol ta.cn ho less worthy ot their hearty support than those on the national ticket. It is in behalf of Ihese State and municipal candi dates that they ought especially to labor; for the State election will take place on the 12th of October —only three weeks before the Presidential—and a handsome majority for onr ticket in October will not only bring out a tremendous one in November, bat will stimulate and invigorate the Republicans in other States deemed doubtful, and secure them also for our candidates. A glorious victory for Grant and Colfax, such as can easily be won by hearty exertion, will finish the work left unfinished by the war for the Union,and since then obstructed by Andrew Johnson. The country will then at once be restored to har mony; South as well as North will become tranquil; the peace that General Grant craves and promises will bring with it a revival of confidence, of industry and of prosperity. The executive and legislative branches of the Government will be made harmonious, and the whole nation will feel the beneficent ef fect of. having a treacherous, head-strong demagogue in the White House supplanted by a gentleman, a soldier and a true patriot. IBS tOBBERCUL ASPECT OF THE CARPAIUKi In every community there is a large class of persons who, in the formation of their po litical opinions, are governed almost entirely by motives of personal interest. They always vote with the party whose success seems most likely to prove favorable to their private en terprises, regardless of the effect upon . the general interests of the country. To these men the present altitude of the great political parties is full of suggestiveness, and the most selfish, as well as the most patriotic, in the ■mercantile class will do well to ponder the results that must ensue from a triumph of the Democratic party in the coming contest. It mußt be apparent to every thoughtful man that the policy announced by this faction as that which they will pursue in case of suc cess is fraught with danger to the true interests of commercial men. An exciting presidential campaign generally exercises a depressing effect upon trade; but it is fair to assert that the character of the issues at stake this fall will induce buyers to purchase with even greater caution, and in smaller quantities than is usual at such times. While the elec tion of Grant is morally certain,it is still phy sically undecided, and until it is positively assured that the national policy is to be founded upon the broad honest basis of the Chicago platform, rather than upon the Dem ocratic platform, men will not feel it to oe safe to buy liberally. At present the currency has a fixed and positive value that cannot be altered, as in the past, by any action of a financial experimenter in the Treasury Department. The prices of goods have conformed definitely to this value, and merchants can buy with the certainty that their stocks will not depreciate upon their hands. If the Democrats come into power with the declared intention to repudiate the promise to pay interest on certain classes of bonds in gold, the legitimate effect will be depreciation of the currency, a further re move than ever from a return to specie pay ments, a derangement and constant variation of values, and a feeling of uncertainty which will be ruinous to active and liberal trade. There can be no doubt of this, and merchants who purpose to support the Democratic .nominee and his platform, might as well make up their minds to the fact that apart from the general injury they are attempting to inflict upon the country,they are damaging their own individual interests to an incalcu lable extent. This is only one view of the matter. There is danger Qf au equal disaster In another, quarter. Every business; jnan knows that the unsettled condition of .political affairs in tho South since the close of the war, has pre vented a proper resumption of the profitable trade which we once had with that section. Under the present reconstruction laws the rebel; States have been reorganized and brought back into their normal relations with the Federal Government. Once more the industry and productiveness of the South have an opportunity, and the Southern peo ple can come into the Northern market as of old with established and an unfailing demand at home for their purchases. This condition of things will be en tirely reversed if Mr. Seymour is elected. If there is any one thing to which the Democrats have pledged them selves in their platform and their speeches, it is to the entire overthrow of the reconstructed State governments in the South, and to t heir return to anarchy. We will then have a worse state of things than evfer before. With a par alyzed industry, with ho foundation forsub stantial credit, andwith an entire absence of well-regulated government, the Southern people will not be our customers as they will be under the present system, and as they were greatly to our as well as their advantage be fore the war. . Hen who have begun to hope for the re-establishment of profitable commer cial relations in this direction will realize the importance of-this consideration in the clamor and excitement. Of. the present cam paign:- ’ There is still another reason, especially in teresting to the commercial class, why the people should repudiate the Democratic doc trine of repudiation. It is easy enough now to say that we will not pay an honest debt, but'the hardship comes-in the way of fearful retribution When we deßire to become credi tors again. This government has not done borrowing money. It will borrow as long aB it continues to exist as a government. If we refuse to fulfil our promises now, we shall-have to Bubmit to hard terms when we come"' into the market next time- The" difference between interest paid in gold as it should be, and in currency as the Democrats would have it, will be but a trifle to the exorbitant rates which will be demanded when the next loan is effected. We bad better pay the smaller sum now, than the infinitely greater one by and by. E very merchant understands this in his business, and even intelligent men who have no moral scruples act upon it. We do not understand how such men can fail to apply to a national tiansaction the principle ’which is so advan tageous in their private dealings. OUR COUNTY PRISON. The Grand Jury made its periodical pre sentment'to the Court of Quarter Sessions on Saturday. In the performance of its duties it visited the prisons and Almßhouse, and it bestows upon the officers of those institutions merited commendation for the good order and discipline maintained therein. But ia respect to Borne of tho public institutions of the city, while the officers are faithful and attentive, radical defects in laws, systems and buildings defeat the best efforts of managers and keepers, and call loudly for reform. Tnese remarks apply with especial force to the County Prison. This building was erected more than thirty years ago, at a time when the population of the city was comparatively small, and when needful accommodations for rogues and vagrants were much more restrict ed than at present. The law then required, and it still requires, that the Pennsylvania system of solitary confinement should be ob served in the convict department ot the pri son. The utter impossibility of doing this where there are three times as many prisoners as there are cells is apparent. Instead of the rule of solitary confinement being observed, three and four prisoners are not unfrequently con fined in the same cell, and while the health of the prisoners must of necessity languish from the crowding together of three or four into a poorly ventilated cell that was originally de signed to hold but a single inmate, tho mor als of all must suffer. Prisons upon both sides Of the Atlantic, where convicts are hud dled together promiscuously, have always justly been considered nurseries of crime, and it used to be said of the old Waluut street prison, that offenders who went in there tyros in evil-doing, came out at the close of their terms of imprisonment accomplished scoundrels. The Moyamensing Prison, in its present crowded-condition, is performing the same bad work in a more limited way. Several plans have been proposed in order to get over this crying eviL First and most manifest is the extension ot the prison, and the propriety of purchasing a sufficient lot of ground immediately sputh of the present buildings has been discussed, but thus far nothing has been done. Secondly, the relief of the institution, as it at present exists, has been urged. The establishment of a House of Correction, by drawing off the large class of vagrants and small offenders, would at once relieve the prison and do a service to the community by discouraging vagrancy; but a House of Correction for Philadelphia has been so much talked about and so little pushed forward practically, that like squaring the circle or any other insoluble problem, it seems to be about as far from accomplish ment as ever. The ridiculous extreme to which the sys tem of jury trials is pushed is a prolific cause of crowding the prison and a Bource of great injustice. Petty offences that should never occupy the attention of a jury are returned to Court by Aldermen who are more intent upon making fees than they are upon doing justice, and when the alleged offenders are brought to trial after weeks of delay, the frivolous character of the charge is made manifest and the prisoner is discharged or the prosecutor fails to appear. An immediate and prompt disposal of petty cases, by a competent magistrate, without the interven tion of a jury, would relieve tho untried department of the prison, serve the cause of justice, break up the system of malicious prosecutions, and cripple Aidermanic ras cality. But there are other and very sweeping Changes that aie demanded by tho pressure of the times. The rapid growth •if the city and the absorption within its built-up bouutis of such institutions as the County Prison, the Blorklcy Almshouse and the Eastern Peni tentiary, admonish us of the necessity for THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-~PH ILADELFIII.-MO.NI>AY.i JULY 27,,1868 looking for new, more remote iin:l more ap propriate quarters for” our 'public charitiea and reformatory institutions thaii they at present occupy. The Eastern Penitentiary and Mbyamensitig prison' are at this time scarcely more appropriately located than were the Walnut find Arch Street Prisons at the time 'of their demolition. Before many years their removal will be imperatively de manded, and a wise forecaste would look to the securing of appropriate sites while they could be obtained at a reasonable cost In imitation of the example of- New York, the plan of placing the prisons and almshouses on an island has been proposed. Petty’s (or Treaty) Island has 'been spoken of for the purpose; but Petty's Island is within tho jurisdiction of. New Jersey, and while it re mains there that plan is out of the question. Rut Philadelphia has a wide-unimproved mar gin within the bounds of the consolidated city, and if we cannot procure' an available island for the important .purposes'referred to, we can secure "plenty of sites upon the main land and within our own corporate limitß. Is there-no remedy for the abominable dis order that is created in Philadelphia almost every time there is an alarm of fire? In the last forty-eight hours there have been several such alarum in the night time. There was nothing very serious in any case, and in one or two a few buckets of water were sufficient to put out tho fire. . But station house bells were rung, and dozens of fire companies were called out. The firemen rushed through the streets, shouting; yelling and swearing; rous ing up and alarming everybody, and certainly causing great distress wherever there was a case of sickness. - FIME DISOIIDEUS In no large city in the world except Phil adelphia is it thought necessary to make a disturbance when an alarm of fire occurs. The custom is a puerile relic of old times, when there were no fire alarm telegraphs, and few of the facilities for putting out fires that now exist. In other mature, well-grown cities, it is considered that the lesß noise there iB made at a fire, or on occasion of au alarm the more work will there ba done. But here the DOtice of a fire, especi-illy after night, is a signal for turning loose into the streets hun dreds of screaming, shouting men and boys, v, tose abominable yells disturb the sleep of ;he whole neighborhood, terrify women and children, and produce more serious effects upon invalids. If we arc to have a volunteer fire depart ment perpetuated among us, it ought to be n formed in many respects. But especially i ugh’, this fashion of creating a tumult in the euects to be abolished. The police do not hesitate to arrest men whom they find dis turbing the peace,except when they chance to be llremeu. That fact seems to give them a license to make an unlimited amount of dis order. If the police, however, did their duty, they would arrest disorderly firemen as well as others, and perhaps a few examples thus made would have a good effect on the whole department. The results of the polygamy practised in Utah territory are themselves proving the in iquity and absurdity ef the Mormon marital theory. A recent census of the Mormon set tlements shows that of the whole number of children bom, the proportion of females to males is as nineteen to twenty, or nearly an equal number of both sexes. This iB nature’s protest against Brigham Young’s doctrine, and it is difficult to perceive how he can pre vent this hard, incontrovertible fact, working out the eventual ruin of his system of polyg amy. Either he must provide for an enor mous immigration of women that must con tinue indefinitely in an increasing ratio, or he must get rid of a great many more than half of the males that are born of Mormon parents; for as it is, there are not enough wo men to give the rising generation of young men one wife apiece. The first of these alter natives is nearly impossible; the second is quite so, and it seems to be inevitable that this simple and natural proportion of the sexes will be the occasion ot effecting the overthrow of the whole wicked system. Like every other violation of the lawß of the Creator, it works out its own destruction. It is strange that Joseph Smith, if indeed, as may be questioned, he authorized polygamy, did not think of this. It is an established law that the sexes shall be nearly equal in the total of the race. In crowded communities the well-known preponderance of females is attributable to loss of male life from excesses, violence, war and emigration. Tnat this latter is a leading cause, is evident from the preponderance of males in new communities. Probably if man had retained hi 3 pristine purity and innocence, humanity would be paired off in exact couples. But the excess of women in the population of the world, if, indeed, it exists at all, at any rate isnot great enough to supply the foreshadowed Mormon deficiency, without any regard to the insuffi ciency of numbers which would exist if all mankind took Brigham Young’s advice and adventured in polygamy. When Emancipation began to loom up as a logical result of the Rebellion, it was a com mon trick of Democratic demagogues who did their best to bring about a conflict of races, —to dwell upon the damage that would be inflicted upon the Northern workingmen when the current of liberated Slavery set North. Fair men, and men of sense, urged that emancipation would have a precisely opposite effect and that where one liberated slave would come North, a dozen free blacks would go to the more congenial climate of the South. Experience has proved this to be true, and if it were not for the Southern deviltry that is kept alive through the ma chinations of these same Democratic dema gogues, negro emigration to the South would be much greater. The drivers and conductors on tho city railway cars held a meeting yesterday, and adopted a memorial asking for an increase of compensation.' 'lt did Dot need the represen tations of this memorial to make the public understand that these men are the hardest worked people in the country, while their resolves demonstrate that their pay is en tirely clisproportioned to the service rendered. The drivers and conductors deserve an in crease of pay, first because they earn it, and secondly beeauße in asking tor it they protest that they have no intention of resorting to the By stem of combined strikes.

Evening Bulletin.) ■Washington, July 27.—0 n ihe last day of the session of Congresi large numbers of persons are generally present*: tills has, however, been ap exception, and when Congress assembled to-day but few spectators were present. The Senate assembled last night at ~y. o’clock and remained in session till after two o'clock this morning, and before adjonmlng disposed of all the Indian treaties mado by the Indian Peace Commissioners. The Senate corridor was filled with office-seek ers and lobbyists until nearly one o’clock. A re cess was taken until half-past nine o’clbck Ibis morning. At midnight It commenced raining and has steadily continued since that hour, with no prospects of its ceasing. Fears are entertained that the surrounding country will be flooded and great damage done to property. ARSKJir.LINO OF THE HOUSE The House assembled at nine o'clock tide morning, bat no quorum was present, and it was about 10 o’clock before one was obtained. The members dropped Into the House one by one, nnd engaged in conversation until the Hall as sumed the appearance of some place Other than a hall of legislation. The confusion . and noise became so great that Mr. E. B. Wathburne, who was In the Chair, was compelled to relinquish it to Mi. Colfax, so that order could be restored. TAHIKF ON COrrEU. Mr. Bchenck, from the Ways and Means Com mittee, succeeded in getting in a bill which placed the tariff on copper as follows: On cop per ore, three cents; regains, four cents; old copper for manufacturing purposes, four cents; bar ingots not for manufacturing purposes,flTe cents. An effort was made to put the bill on its pas sage, but the minority, under the lead of General Banks, resorted to all manner of filibustering by calling thjo yeas and nays, until General Schenck became alarmed lest the morning, until the hour of adjourning came, would be consumed, thus preventing the passage of the conference report on the Funding bill, so he consented to Its tem porary postponement. The Funding bill was then reported. Olnrder In HollidarKbnrer. (Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Bvenina Bulletin. Hollidaysbukg, July 27.—Qn Saturday last William Lane, a plasterer of this place, was killed by a man named Thomas H. Fagan, in a fight at the United States Hotel. Whisky was the cause of the affray. Fagan was arrested and jodgtd in jail. Late waa an elderly man and poor ; he leaves a 6mall family. His skull was crashed in by a blow from Fagan, and he died instantly. XL,til Congress—Neconil Session. Washington, July 21, lKiig. House. —Tho House met at 9 o'clock with a very thin attendance of memliers. Mr. Waehburae (111.) asked to have taken from the Speaker's table the Senate joint resolution to the stationery contract of the Interior / with D>-m])3ey and O'Toole. ’ y Mr Van Trump objected. Mr. Woshburne inquired the reason of the ob jection. The bill would save the Government $20,000 a year, out of which it would be choused by this contract. Mr Van Trump said there was a difference of opinion about that. Mr. Schenck, from the Committee of Ways and Means, reported back the Senate bill relating; to contracts payable in coin, and asked that it be laid on the table. Mr. Garfield suggested that that course should not be taken, but that the bill should be retained within the power of the House. Mr. Schenck assenting, withdrew the bill, and it remains with tho Committee of Ways and Means. Mr. Schenck, from the Committee of Ways •and Means, reported a bill regulating the duties on imported copper and copper ore, and asked to have It considered in the House. Mr. Ross objected unless he should first bo allowed to offer a resolution for the benefit o f no employd of the House. That privilege having been allowed to and enjoyed by him, Mr. Ross withdrew the objection, but on con dition that nothing else should be added to the bill. The Speaker declared that, objection being withdrawn, the bill was before the House. It imposes the following duties on copper Imported in the form of ores: 3 cents upon euch pouDd of fine copper; on regulus of copper, and on black and coarse copper, 4 cents. Upon each pound of pure copper; on old copper fit only for remanufacture, 4 cents per pound; and on old copper lu plates, bars, ingots, pigs and other forms not manufactured or named In the bill, 5 cents per pound. Mr. Banks made the point of order that the bill must be first considered in Committeo oi the "Whole. The Speaker overruled the point of ordor, on the ground that it was made too late. Mr. Banks insisted that he had not lost his right to object, as he could not do so an til he had beard the bill read. The Speaker stated that the bill had been read by its title, and that this having been the third or fourth attempt to do it, its contents must have been known to members. 1 Mr. Schenck proceeded to explain why the bil was reported. The Committee of Ways and Means had felt great reluctance to do so on ac count of the faUure of the general tariff bill, but on looking over the whole ground again and again, the Committee had come to the conclusion that if there was anyone interest which had a claim to some legislation that would relievo it from suffering it was the copper Interest. This was a very large ■ Interest especially in the Lake Superior region. It had once been so promising and nourishing that it scorned to ask protection. Since then,however, protection hashcon extended to the copper interest to the extent of from five to seven per cent, pd valorem, and it has only that protection now, while lead and Iron and every other corresponding material had 30, 40, 50 and 60 per cent, protection. The bill now re ported would give protection to the copper in terest to the amount of 30 per ceut.,not bringing . • 11 ., A,;' > 4 ' it up to tho average rate of protection under the existing laws. Tho prostration of the Interest was so great fhat operMlves at tho mines wore starving or going to the poor-house,by hundreds, or is king charl tytogot lawny from - thd mines, while the steamboats on the lakes were being re duced from daily to weekly trip*' ’ Mr. Kelley (Fa.) mado an appeal in- behalf of tho nickel interest. .. , ~ ■ . • ... The Speaker ’ reminded members of", tho con dition on which Mr. Rots had withdrawn his ob jections. Mr. Schenck- said that he could not at all ■events consent to an amendment for the benefit of nickel or any other interest. Ho should like toextend it to "the hair cloth Interest' and to the flaxseed interest in which his coristitu mts wore involved, bat it was impossible to do so. Mr, O'Neill made an ineffectual'appeal In be» half of the book interest, which he represented lo bo extremely depressed Iff Philadelphia. - Mr. Wasbbnrne (III.) said no would like to have ' tbe bill extend to the lead Interest,, but .in view of the very depressed corfditlori of the copper In terest he was willing that the bill should pass! Mr. Washburno (Mass.) made an appeal in be half ol the hair cloth interest, which, he psld was suffering as mnch as tho copper Interest, and he objected to singling out one and excluding the others. ' Mr.’ Schenck insisted on the previous question, and on a division of the house there appeared to be but seventy members present. A callot tho House having'bcon ordered, one hundred and eleven members, just a quorum, answered to their names. > - : ■ Mr. Banks demanded the yeas and nays on or dering the main question. The main 1 question Was ordered—yeas, 87; nays, 24. ; -*■ Mr. Bontwell asked Mr. Schenck. whether he was not ready to report on the funding bill, and whether he was not endangering that important measure by insisting' bn this copper hill, which was of no general interest or importance,, i Mr. ScbenCk was understood .to say that, the conference report on that subject had not yet come from the Senate. Mr. Bunks Objected to debate. Mr. Thomas moved to lay tho bill on the table. , < .! . The Speaker, at this point, 10 o’clock, inti mated to Mr. Bchenck that If he desired to, make thoconfcrence report on thefundingbill it should be done at once. Mr. Schenck made no responso. The proceedings on the Copper bill were Inter rupted in order to concur with an amendment of the Benate to a bill for the widow of Brigadier General Bidweil, adding to it the name of the widow of General Hackelmanto place on the Speaker’s table the Senate bill to regulate tbe foreign and coasting trade on the northern, northeastern nnd northwestern fron tiers of the United States, and to adopt a rnlo creating a etanding committee on the revisal of the laws, and abolishing tho Committee on Re visa! nnd Unfinished-Business, Un a conflict cf opinion between the Speaker and Mr. BaDks, relative to a count on ordering ■the yeas and nays, Mr. Binks appealed from the, decision of the chair and the decision was sus tain* d, ytae. 121: nays, 1. , The motion to by on tho table was rejected. Mr. Sebenek, at n quarter past 10 o'clock, rose to make a conference report on the funding bill, Miiv.rking the' the faction against the copper bill was so manifest that he would not press it at tlib moment. The Conference report was read. The bill ap pears In the Benate proceedings of Sunday night. Mr. Randall demanded, as a question of order, that tbe bill be read. The Speaker Informed him that it was not the right of a member to demand the reading of a bill In full in a conference report. Mr. Randall appealed from tho decision of the Cbalr. Tbe Speaker 'deel ined to sustain the appeal be cause the question was settled by parliamentary law. Mr. Schenck said that the bill was now reduced to a little bill of three sections, and had been published In the morning papers. Weather Report. July 27, \ Ther )‘j A. M. ' Wind. Weather, momeier.

The demand from the mercantile community is unimportant, and therefore the banks nnd private Under.* have to rely upon the btock'Ex chance for the employment of their capital. Henco t/j<* supply le excessive even at the low ratps now cumut, and there will: he-nothing to produce a more active movement-of capital until tSeptember, when the drain of currency westward to move the grain crops will begin to bn felt. EvrtifUen, however, there will be no material change excepting an advance in the rate of interest to six and seven percent. There is indeed noth it g in the financial prospect to warrant apprehensions of an active money market ro lone as currency contraction, remains soar ended, and trade is as at present devoid of . any pH reply marked HieculaiivO; and even if trade were otherwise the mercantile demand alone would uot lead to anything approaching etriucency in Sloreover. the twenty live millions of new three par cent, legal tender certificates recently autho rised by Confrere will be ismed in exchange for the com pound mtereft notes outstanding as fast as (ho latter ma ture, ond in this way all danger of disturbance arising fi om tbeir maturity will be »uardcd ag iinpt.

Y. Jn.v 25.—The fact of cheap money and stagnation of bn In* ra having been coexistent here and (n Europe for inor» than a ytar past, is an anomaly new in the history of commercial aflaiia. and by no means evidence of health ful p-ogress. Capitalists seem to be “governed - y a single sentiment—that of fear.” T hey prefer to hold their capi tal inactive rather than to'tirculate it They no not dace to act, nnd enterprise remains inert here and in Enronfe, with imuicnse capital at hand, and with elomrntß of pioduction such as have never before been amassed, wnd which could create public wealth to an unusual extent. Great Britain and France are groan ing under the burden of a plethora of money- gold aud Eilver, of whicn they hold our snare aa well os their own and New York la- equally glutted- with money, in our case consisting of ‘primed certificates," and not specie In Europe rnouey is begging for employment nt lJtf to 2>s per cent., and in New York at 3 to 4 per cent, per annum. Europe holds About SBQQ.OUO.(X 1 O of Untied bin tea sin per cent, bonds, and thousands are living on the $4%000,000 of gold interest which the I’i ited brat*-!* pav on tbe same Thousands of Europeans Live on thp difference between borrowing on the five twenty bonds at European rates of interest and the six per cent interest they receive. The European money icudera carry United States bonds say for 3 per cent, per aunuin, afcd tbe riifft rence, $24,100 000, fomis a clear ptofit for tho European holders of our bonds, without requiring more money on their part than the small sum for margin. There i* no increase of public wealth,from this use of capital, It ie in fact a retrograde and progressive movement. Eu rope Jiving on America. Capital devouring itself. Hence the "diy rot," or eating up of capital, v. liich for no ne ear? past has taken the place of tht- “ panic and cri?i?' of former years. Lienee the sudden and unexpected fail t: re? of first-cla e firms and institutions, like Uverend, Gur ney i l'o„ and the Credit Mobilier of Paris, at mom-nts when they were least expected.

Tho President and members of the Cabinet came to the Capitol this morning, and were as sembled in the President’s room for the transac tion ot business in connection with Congressional matters and nominations to office. XLth Congress—Second Session. Washington, Julv 27. Bhnate.— The BeDate mot at 9 30 A. M., and after bolding an executive session for about five minutes resumed legislative business. Tbe Chaplain prayed that all classes of people even where Bbould bow to the majesty of the law, and that our Legislature shall resnmo their labors alter tho recess with God’6 blessing on them. Mr. Bameey called np tbe House bill for the mi-re economical administration of tho goryern in the several Territories of tho United States,and lor other purposes, providing for biennial ses sions of Territorial Legislatures, &c. Mr. Drake called attention to the fact that the hill would prevent Governors of Territories froin callirg sessions. Mr. Williams replied that they have not the power now. Mr. Buckalew said while he did not know tho private objects of this bill, he was of the opinion that it iB one of that class which always comes up mysteriously at the end of the session, Mr. Sherman took tho same view. Here minded the Senate that a change of admin istra tiOD will probably take place in the fall. That will stop a great many nice schemes. Mr Williams 6aid the Senator was altogether too suspicious and that the great d ffleultv In tho territories Is the action of the legislatures in committing the people to contracts, granting charters, &c., so that it is impossible for the sne cetding State Legislatures to legislate in the in terests of the people. Mr. Sherman pointed ont that the result will be to take from the people the power for two years to dtfeat obnoxious laws. He moved to lay tbe bill on the table. Agreed to. Mr. Anthony called up the resolution for the purchase of one copy of Lanman’s Dictionary of CoDgress and the General Government for each Senator, and one each for the ofllcersof Sergeant at-Arms and Secretary of the Senate,and the Post master of the Senate.

Mr. Sumner suggested that Canada was not a sovereign power, and that the resolution should he modified by inserting Great Britain, instead of Canada. Mr. Ramsey accepted the amendment and the resolution was adopted. Mr. W ii6on called up the House bill to provide a more efficient government for the Btatesof Mis sissippi, Texas and Virginia. [HorfcE— Continued from Third Edition.) If there was a general desire ou the part of the House lo have the bill read exactly aB agreed u| on, instead ot an explanation from him, he would let that course be taken. Several members—Let the bill bo read. The bill was read from a copy of the National hitf-lligencer. Mr. Eldridge made the point of order that it was not in order to have the bill read from a newspaper. The Speaker overruled the question of order, staling that a member had the right to have any thing read, either from manuscript or print, as a part of his own remarks. Messrs. Roes, Eldridge and other Democrats, ■ommenccd a system df filibustering to defeat ihe funding bill, by submitting various motions lor a recess, and trying to get the yeas •,Ld nuj s on them. The Democratic strength was, however, not sufficient to order the yeas and' uoys. Mr. Eldridg e deslredlto have a call of the House so ns to have absent Democratic members brought m and fined for their absence without leave. Finally the, Speaker declined to entertain any lurther motions for a recess, and stated that he counted whether he should have entertained more than the one. Mr. Ross said he wanted the rule enforced so ihat bondholders should be turned out of the in.ll, ,He was apprehensive that the chair would eon lit them; The Speaker directed the door-keeper to i ulorce the rule, and intimated to Mr. Ross, that be himself was violating the rales in not occupy ng his own seat. - - Mr. Schenck insisted oh the previous question on ibe Conference report The previous qnestlOD was seconded. • Mr. Eldricigo demanded; the yeas, and nays on ordering the main question. ■ L: \ ; Mr. Schenck,obsi i ving that several tthpublican nu mbers wore voting for the yeas and nays, re marked that members might have their votes pat upon record, and the session could be extended til) four o’clock.

[ Tiiere were several hundred persons gathered at the Benatc main dqor while that body was in executive session this morning— aU of them in terested in the secret proceedings, and anxiously awaiting the action of the Senate affecting the nominations of themselves or their friends. At twelve o’clock, after the doors were opened, they rushed into the Chamber to prosecute their inquiries. Many of them were disappointed to find that Borne of the nominations had either not been acted npon gt all, or had been rejected. The name of Alexander Cummings, to be Commissioner of Internal Revenue, was not reached on the calendar for want of time.
