(Correspondence of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. WASIIINGTON, Dec. 21.—The proceedings in both Houses to-day reminded one of a Saturday session at school in boyhood's days, when the students were anxious to " clear out," and throw books and study to the dogs." The attend ance in both Houses was very thin, and the bud_ ness was rattled off with railroad speed. In the House, E. B. Washburne, of Illinois, was acting Speaker, in Colfax's absence, and he certainly made the most dogmatical chairman the House has seen for many n day. A few of the members who brad some "little bills" they wished put through, attempted to go into the consideration of general busLuess,but the Speaker was inexorable, and "shut down" on all such propositions with a brusque firmness which caused considerable amusement to those not in terested but was rathergalling to those compelled to submit to his irrevocable decision, because there was no appeal, no quorum being present. Mr. Washburne started out this session with the determination that as little general neatness as possiblishould be transacted the present ses sion; and ho has been consistent throughout, for he has interposed all the objections he could, and being regarded as one of the confidential advisers of Gen. Grant, his suggestionsare at all times re ceived with marked respect. The report of General Van Wyck on whisky frauds was presented to the House, bat its con ents--having-been-anticipated,-it was passed-over without reading, after which the House ad journed, and there was a perfect stampede of members and spectators. In the Senate very little business was done be yond the reception and consideration of resoln - dons on various subjects.-Senator Wilson's res olution requesting the Secretary of the Interior to_ inform the Senate how many Indian Agents and Superintendents were absent from their post was a telling - hit," as it is understood a consid erable number of these officials have been re cently "recreating" in Washington lobbying against the proposed transferof the Indian Bu reau to the War Department, in conformity with the recommendation of Gen. Grant. This reso lution will cause a stampede of certain parties hence to the far West. A small crowd of dlsconsolate-looking indi viduals loitered around the Senate lobbies hoping to get an Executive session, "only for a few minutes," to take up their, nominations for vari ous offices and act upon teem; but the Senators were in no mood for "Executive business," and the disinterested patriots left with heavy hearts. Both Houses have now adjourned till January sth,so we shalt have a brief respite from" Johnson eruptions," in the shape of nominations, for two wcnkfs ' . General Grant returned yesterday from Chicago, and was at headquarters this morning, looking much improved by his jaunt." Hc was waited - on during the morning by numerous Royston <and Representatives, who called to pay their respects. He was as cool, calm and reticent as ever..l mot him coming out of the head-quarters with a party of gentlemen, and saluted him, which he returned with his characteristic blandness and suavity. ito is emphatically "Citlism Grant," for no one PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, DECEMBER. 22, 1868. 5,000 923 CHESTNUT STREET.

He walked dower--. Pennsylvania avenue, smoking his cigar, chatting. good-na turedly With his frienes, and nodded familiarly to _his acquaintancea as they passed hlm. There irtgood reason tor stating that the . Gen triis hence, to keep out of the way of politicians between now and the 4th of March. In other words, he wants to "flank them" as much us possible, without giving offence 'or appearing discourteous. He will probably soon make a short trip to Hertford, Connecticut; and Mrs. Grant is desirous of going over to Philadelphia for a few days, to pay time visits to her acquaintances in 'your city, and the expectation is, she will be accompanied by the General. The time has not been fixed yet, but it , will be soon. COngresei when in session was overwhelmed -wake multitude of--projects - to - resume = specie - payments, and pay off;the national debt, but in consequence of the diversity, of views, very little will probably be iione this session.pon these im portant questions. The Senators ana Representa tives are not only perplexed with a host of plans, but it seems the Finance Committee of the Senate are in daily receipt of • innumerable "plans" and "projects" from amateur financiers, who think the Committee are like editors, to be dosed with "Letters from the People" on all imaginable subjects; and just'now the prevailing mania is to inflict upon the Committee an avalanche of propositions, not one in ten of, .whichis ever read by the Senators addressed, but._ areconsigned - hi the waSte - paper basket orMir fire4rate. One "plan," however, was lately sent to Senator Sherman Chairman of , the Senate Finance Committee,which the author considered so valuable that e wanted the Gov ernment to hive him one million of dollars for the idea alone! This was exceedingly modest, to say the : least. Senator S. called the attention of Sen ator Cattail to the proposition, and requested the latter to look at% but Cattell declined, "unless," as he jodularly remarked, "the Committee de cided to vote a million to the individual," in which case he would look into the merits of the "offer." it is scarcely nertsgsary to add that the party ambitious of extracting one million from Uncle Sam for "a patent to pay off the national debt and resume specie payments," will not en joy the honor of having his. plan submitted to Congress; ranch - less - be compensated for it. PEOTS.ST AGAINST THE GONFTEALITION OF FERIA- Col. Engelbert, Collector of Internal Revenue for the Seventh District of Pennsylvatila, has sub mitted to the Senate Finance Committee a pro test, signed by more .than.. twelve hundred tax payers and business men in his district, against any change in the present revenue collector. Col. E. is a Republican of- the strictest sect;.was a soldier in the war of the rebellion, captured and a prisoner in Libby, and all these facts are set -forth-as masons why no change should be made, as such change is not asked for nor desired by • the -- taxpayers or the Republicans of the District. - A similar .protest — will be presented in the case of Assessor Swayne, against the confirmation of Wm. Cooper Talley. Talley. was a good soldier during the rebellion, having entered the service as •a Captain in the First Regiment, Pennsylvania Reserves. and served till the close of his term, when he - returned as Colonel of the regiment. He embraced John- Fenian', however,. and was appointed Collector for the same district in which he is nominated for Assessor, but was removedby Johnson, who now desires to make amends: but the impression is. it is too late. The confimation of both Spear and Talley is very doubtful. THE POSTAGE STASW CONTRACT. In. the Rolm, to-day, Mr. Washburn, of Illi nois, offered s reSolution.reonesting Postmaster- General Randall to'transmit- to the Howe all papers relating to the., contract for printing postage stamps—the advertisement for proposals —together with the contract made with the Na tional Bank Note Company, of New York, in October last, for printing all the stamps required within the next four years. This is the case in which it was alleged by Butler & Carpenter, of Philadelphia, that they were the lowest bidders, Set the contract was awarded to the New York Company. If there was partiality or favoritism in awarding the contract, Mr. Washburne is de termined to ferret it out and expose it. THE ALASKA PURCRAIH: MONEY.

In contemplation of this, I purchased about three years ago a tract of freehold building land of about fifteen acres in extent, at Brixton, near the City of London School, easily accessible, and within a few minutes' walk of frequent trains to and from London. This land has increased in value, and can now be let on building leases of eighty years at rents producing about eight per cent per annum on the cost, which is £16,285175. 3d. This land I propose to convey to you with the same powers as are con ferred by the deed over the other property of this trust, and with discretion to you either to deal with It as a source of income by lotting is, or a portion of it, on lease; or, should you deem it expedient, to retain it in your own hands, as sites fordwellings to be erected by the trust. Pursuant to my letter of the 20th of January, 1866, I tranaferred to you, subject to a contin gency therein explained,, 5,000 shares in the Hud son's Bay Company, which accordingly stand in your names, together with 642 additional shares purchased, by the reinvestment of the accruing income Of 'the previous 6,000.

DMLRIATIU AND REIM 1413Atm —The Galion English Comic Opera Company. began an engagement at the Theatre Comique lust eveptue. An adaptation of a French Operetta entitled Protehttte was chesen as the inaugural.

Miss Susan Gallon and Mr. Thomas Whitlln carried oft all the honors of the performance. The young lady is a very charming soubrette actress, and she has a voice very well suited for music of the Fivrichette description. In addition to these advantages, she is graceful,haud some and vivacious. The met song was encored,. and her performance throughout was very creditable In deed.
