Additional Progress in the Credit Mobilier Investigations Durant’s Expose of the Corrupt Practices of John B. Alley. The President Approves the Killing of the Franking Privilege. Procecdings in Congross Yesterday. 3 OREDIT MoDILIER, Wasmyoron, D, 0., Jan. 81.—Tho Wilson Committes had a long scssion to-day, and ita room was crowded during tho entire timo, bub tho procoodings woro not intoresting, oxcept during tho last half hour of tho sossion. The mont astounding fact elicited to-day, and one of tho most singular yob dovoloped, wos that 50,000 was paid to Gonoral Dix, whilo he wag Minlstor to France, for his supposed efforts in influoncing tho taking of tho bonds, It does not appoar that he was of suy sorvice in that capacity, but tho amount wag paid to him, and tho payment was disguised and coverod up, 80 a8 to provont discovery. Tho oxaminntion of President Olark was confinued, and, owing to tho fact that lo was vory diffuse in his answors, and Mr. Hoar by no means briof in his quoss tions, thore was very litle matorial obtained to ossiet tho Committeo. ~Mr, Hoar somewhat potulantly rominded Mr. Olark, to-day that it was not” customnry for witnesses todoall tho tn.lkh:F. Quck as nghtnlng, Mr. Clark repliod that it was not customary put ucations €0 s to bo awvswerod in tho nsking. To this Hoar roplied, that tho witnoss was cumboring the rocords, and tho controvorsy was onded by tho intlmation by Clark, softo voce, that Lo was not o voluntary witness, _Olark was nrxulnE in most of his tos- timony, that Congross should not hold tho pros- ent innocont stockholders of the Union Pacifia Railroad responsiblo for the extravagauce and improprioties of the Directors snd managers cight or ton yoars ngo. Ho did not attompt to Justify tho mnnnfiumant of the road, nor tho uso miado of its finances in formor yoars. o only insisted that tho rond beon prgfinxly, cconomicolly, and honostly man- B, during the past yoar. - Ho was_ nsked what ho had dono tu retraco tho past, and to ro- cover tho misplaced funds. Ho answored om- phatically that the statute of limitations barred any proceodings, and that it was useloss to apond timo on such things. Ho spoke of one Govorn- ment Direclor who had demanded $25,000 of tho Company, and anid hobelioved the Director was appointed for tho purpose. From 500,000 to 1,000,000 will bo required during the approach- ing summer, to roroll the iron of tho track. BShortly boforo tho Committes adjourned Aloxander ~Hay was _ called to’ the stand, and roved himsolf ona of the most romarkable witnesses that ever took an oath. Ho kept the Committoe and spectators in a constant roar of laughtor. Ho Dad been ongnfiud with Blowart, the lobbyist, who is now contined for contumacy'in n transic- tion in bonds and funds of the Company. It was thought ho . could oxplain whoro & portion of the quarter of a million went that disappoar- od with Btowart. Hay i arich old man, who has been familiar with ¢ lobby" transactions in Washington for a mscore of years, and in bia tostimony, it was impossible to toll whothor lis tostimony was o burlesque; whether ho was simple-mindod, . or whothar ho waa playing o very ingenious part at evasion. At mmmtn, noither rhyme nor reason came m from yothis manner was 80 agreeable and” smiling, that his contradiotions, Lis evaslons, and tho gonoral his dontals, bis_explanations, chaotio indication of his mlnd, a8 shown by his answers, woro roceived with patience by the Committeo, Itscomed ho had about_ 60,000 in his possossion, obtained from Mr. Durant, on tho™ order of Stewart, but he oould not toll whother it was bonds of tho Union Pncific Road or somothing else, and he did not know how much he had advanced to Btewart, nor how much ho had received for his sorvico {n. urging upon Congressmen the passago of tho legisiation of 1864, and his mind secmed to run particularly on a bridgo he had built dur- ing tho war aorosd the Potomne, whilo he owned tho railroad connccting Washington and Alex- andrin, and to this he turned for comfort when boset by ombarrassing questions. Ho was dis- migsed a8 incorrigible, after o short examina~ tion, and the Committao adjourned after & short secrot Besaion. THE COTTON TAX. The Beck for refunding tho cotton tax at last came to & voto in tho Ways and Monus Commit- tes to-day, and was defeated. It had previously Doen claimed by the Bouthern members, that tho Chairman, Mr, Dawes, would favor this bill, but Lis voto to-day was on tho othor side. Mr. Beck moved that tho Committeo roport tho bill favor- ably, and pending this, Mr, Roborts moved that an adverse report bo made, aud this was sgreed to—ayes, Messra., Dawos, Finkolnbur, olly, Burohard, and Roborta; nays, Mossrs. Maynard, Kerr, and Bock, Mr. Brooks being sbsont. The Committoo also considored the fax on small cotton planters, and agroed to allow thoso who raise for their ownuso to soll 100 pounds without licenso. BALARIES, Tho Judiciary Committeo of the Houso con- gidercd the bill for the increaso of the salaries, ote. Asnow stated, the Committoo is unani- mous in {ts favor, and a favorablo timo will bo improved for puthn;i it on its passsage, Itis gonorally conceded that it will pass the Houso, becauso more than o majority of thut are going out on the 4th of Murch, and, if they can take £6,000 o pioce in addition to thoir old selavics, they will bo that much botter off. THE VOST OFFICE DUILDING. The Exccutivo Committoo of the Wostern Commorcial Convention, consisting of Meesrs, Calliday and Acker, Illinois, Moans, Kentucky, Thurston, Pennsylvanis, and Eggloston on Bherlock, of Ohio, will call on the President to- morrow o oxchango specchos with the Execu- tive rogarding Westorn intornal improvements, a4 to l\!imtlmr or not an additional atory shull ba laced on the top of tho Post Office Department n this clt{, snd another one undor. It will robably bo decided by tho Committoo of Publio Buildings and Grounds on Wodnesday. The Department wna inspooted by tho Committeo to-dny, attonded by the Postmaster Geoneral and Suporvising Arohutect Mullott, ond found to bo inadequate for the usca required. Tho change, it is cstimated, will cost a million and a-haif. ANOTHER BOANDAL RUMORED, A rumor provailod at tho Capitol to-day, that another investigation is soon to be ordered, baving for its object an examination into tho charges of fraud in connection wirh tho Goat TIuland job. It is whispored that proof would be obtained 1mplicating o_cortuin Sonator whoso roputation has hitherto beon beyond reproach. THE PUBLIO DENT, The publis debt statemont, which will e fa- sued from the Treasury Department to-morrow, will show no roduction In the nmount of tho dobt forthe month just olosed, The causo al- leged is light recoipls from irports, and beavy payments from’'the Troasury on account of ap- lymprlmlons, including the million aud a quar- or dollars voted to tho Distriot for improve- monts to Government proporty.

A strong grcsaura was brought {o'boar upon the Prosi- ent to induco him to voto the bill, but he de- clined doing 80, on the ground that the faots in his poesession did not warrsnt snch actlon, In- nsmuoch as thero wore suspicious ciroumstances obout the bill, howover, kLo withheld his Bzgl‘uh turo, thus allowing it to become & law without ‘his approval, 3 NEGRO SYMPATHY WITH THE CUDANS. ‘The colored poople of , thia District propose holding & mags mesting for the purpose of urg- ing upon tho United Statos tho justico and tho nocessity of recognizing the bolligorent rights of tho insurrectionisterin Cuba.

FIED DOUGLASS is in bad tempor bocanao of tho lack of apprecia- tion by tho Republican party of the sorvices of the colored paople in the campaign. In his paper this wook ho says * Tho colored voters who Inbored with * zeal and effect for tho euccoss of tho Topublican ° party in tho Iate Prosidontial campaign, have to take back sents in tho Northorn States. Wo know of an instance in_one of tho Departmonts here, wheore o colored man, aftor having provon his ability under the Civll Sorvice rulos, was denied an appolntmont for some trumped-up reason outsido the rules of tho Civil Sorvice, which loft no room to doubt that tho non-appointmont waa on account of color.” (To the Associated Presa.)

This fact appoared from tho Boomer, contract, and the witness submitted & copy of it, Ho further satated that Alley and company improperly chargod him with miny {toms, and noglooted to cradit him with othors, oud thus placod him o a falao_position, in order to Influonce thio ologtion of n Bonrd of Directors of tho Union Pnciflo Railrond, As to the ¥lsk suit, tho witness stated that Amds, then Acting Prosidont of the Crodit Mobilior, gave diractions ta tho Tronsurer to recoive no sul scrl{;tions for stock, oxcopt when accompanied with tho pay- ment of the par_ value theroof, Thoroupon Alley aud his frionds procecded to subscribe for stock, Onthe first subsoription boing mado, & parcol of Frnunhnekn was produced by tho party making the subscription, stating to tho ~‘Troasuror that it was A tonder of 65 por cont of the smouut of tho par value of his subseription, which was, of courso, refused by tho Troasurer,ns tho party well knew it would bo. Tho amount thus protended toba tendered was not, as I underatand, over countod by tho Tronsurer, but was rotainod by the parly 80 offering to subscribe, to be used the noxt minutoon anothor stbsoription. Amongthe sub- seriptions mado in such # way nt this_timo are threo in tho namo of John B. Alloy sud John B. Mlci Trusteo, amounting it the agiregute to 928, b0,0DO. 'I'hlu farcical subseription nnd ten- dor thoreon was continued for b period of abotit ton minutes in time, and reached in amount a sum sbout £60,000,000. Notn dollar of this monoy passed futo the hauds of tho Company, nor was it intended it should so pass, All this took place about flve days boforo the election of Dircotors. Tho by-laws of the Company provided that no’ stock could be voted on which had not stoed on the ‘books of the Company in the name of tho porson offering to voto thoroon for ton days provious to the olection.
