the let of January, 1870, there were at
least 100,000 tons of steel rails laid down
on the railroads of this country, and
probably 10,000 tons of stoel-hosded rails
besides. • The commissioners sent I dr
cular containing interrogatories in regard
to the use of these rails ten large number
of roads throughout the country, and
from the replies received conclude that
extremes of temperature do not InJuri
cmaly affect the steel ralls ; that their demi
bility far exceeds that of the bait iron'
rails, no steel rail having yet been report
ed as worn out ; that heavy Fades and
sharp curves do not materially affect their
wear ; that the rails shcmld be carefully
Inspec'ed before; laying, and that usually
all haws and imperfections can then be
d'scovered, and subsequent breakage in
t o track prevented.

In the Convocation in London the
Bishop of Winchester offered the follow
ing resolution: "That a committee of

appointed by the Conyocatibb Cof the
Northern Province, to report upon the

resets; in all those passages where .plain
and cleat errors, whether in the Hebrew
or Greek text, originally adopted by the
translators, or in the translations made
from the lame, Abell on due investigation
be found to exist."
The Mahe Pr in offering this resoledion,
said that everybody who studied the
'matter knew that there were in their
prevent volume parts of it which did not
really belong to the inspired: Record.
Therefore he believed it was the duty of
the Church - to remedy these errors. '
The Bishop of IX David's said he. wits:

carried, would involve the necessity of
constant revision of the Scriptures, and
for this ha was 'by no means -prepared.
Ste did not believe that any alteration in
the gran:retied or -verbal construction of
the New Testament - would In any way
affect the doctrine. which the Church of
England now hem. lle believed It would
be a great advantage, both to the public
and private reading of the English
Church, if judicious revisions l were
made. Such a revision would, no doubt,
alter In very material respects the face of
the Holy scriptures; but that ought to. be
no reason why they should abstain . Born
revision if, by inch roosion,i they could
secure a more faithful representation of
Scripture than they bad hitherto had. •
The Bishop of Liandaff said he thought
the resolution should apply to the Old as
well as the New Testament. (4s origin ,

Gen. Garfield, Chairman of the Com
mittee on Banking and Currency, made
a report today on the gold panic. It
kites a riesumidantial amount of its his.
tory, and comer to the following concha-
Sone In view of -the testimony: • .
Pird. Proinlnent 'bankers and mer
chants who testified before the Commit•
tee were nearly unanfmons in -the opin
ion there was no gullicient reason for the
existence of the Gold. Exchange and
Gold Exchange Bank; that they were
the source of measureless evils and
ought to be destroyed.
S'ecoad. The gold conspiracy dealt a
heavy blow at our credit abroad by
shaking the faith of foreign capitalists In
the stability of our trade and honesty of
our people. Hundreds of firms engaged
In legitimate, business were wholly
rained or severely crippled; importers of
foreign goode were for many days at the
mercy of the gamblers and suffered
heavy losses; In fact the entire country
was injured, the foundations of business
and morality were shaken and numer
ous defalcations that shortly followed
were clearly traceable to the mad spirit
engendered by apeculation.
Third. The committee fled that the
wicked and cunningly devised attempts
of conspirator' to compromise the Presi
dent of the United States, or his family,
utterly failed. Mr. Corbin, using the op-.
portunity which his family relationalnp
to the President afforded, and under that
wore. form of hypoclery which puts on
the guise of religion and patricide cumsed
his arts to learn something from visit.
oonvenuttione of the President., which
could be made profitable to him and his
conspirators, but with all the efforts or
hla.asociatea the teetlmooy has not elic
ited ono word or act of the Provident
Inconsistent with that patriotism and
integrity which befit the Chief Execptive
!gibe nation. The tussaag• sent to Cor
bin, when - big doplieltylein enenect:
ed, and the order which laid the strong
hand of the government upon the con
spirators and broke their power, are
most significant.
The report relieves lire. Grant and
General Porter from an suspicion of
gambling.
All the public, funds en rusted to Gen.
Butterfield were faithful' accounted for.
It la not oencludvely pro ed he was In
terested with the conspirators In realmg
the price of gold, though on 'this point
the testimony is conflicting. Gould
swears positively he bought two lots of
gold for Butterfield, amounting in all to
a million and a half dollars. Butterfield,
also under oath, denies this statement.
Both Flak and Gould swear they receiv
ed messages from Butterfield and an
ewers to messages which they sent
during the days of the panto In
reference to news from Washington, and
this 'statement receives some support
from Brown, a messenger of .the Sub.
Treasury. It is proved by the testimony
that during the days of the panic two
firms, brokers, sold gold on Batterfield'a
order and for his profit, and that during
his whole term of office he was dealing
largely in United Staten bonds on his
own account. When asked by the Com
mittee

of the public. Fisk and Gould thought
