WasminoTow, D. 0., March 81.—~T'ho most im- portant phaso of the prococdings in Congross * to-doy was tho voto on the motion to airko ont $ho fourth eeation of tho Senato Financo Com- mitteo's biil for tho rodomption and rols- ‘suo of United , Stotoa notes, aud for froo Lunking. Yosterdny, by B majori- 'ty of G, tho socond soction, which provided for spocio rosumption Jan, 1, 1870, was stricken out; and, very naturally, tho noxt move of tho inflat{onists was to got rid of tho fourth saction, which mado provision for tho gradual rotiromont of groonbacks, This was accomplished by.a baro anjority of two votes, whlch, (n tho boliof of Dfr. Foryy, {a ns good as & ‘majority of 200. THE INFLATIONISTE contond that, a8 theyarein tho majorlty, and aro alone ¢o e hald respousiblo by tho country for the Inw about to bo ouncted, thoy should bo al- +1owed to porfect tho bill to suit thomsolves, and ipon this hypothosis they base thoir complaints shout the offorta that they sllego aro being mado Ly thoir opponents to embarrnes and .yotord thom in this strugglo. 'Tlo cause for {hoir fault-finding mpposts in the fact that Sonators who happen to bo ontho numerically weaker sido just now seco fit to oxorciso their Senatorinl prorogative in the mat~ tor of offering nmendments intended as improve- 1mants, or to porfoct or throw additional safo- guards around tho proposition under cpusldern- tion, Mnving wiped out the redemption clauso, the noxt thing to bo douo was to provide for FIEE-DAXKING. . Mr, Togan withdraw his uarostricted free- ‘bunking proposition to receive ove which con- tained “somo: restrictions. Mr. Fenton wanted 1o complote the latter menasure, and offered an additionnl scction providing for tho redemption of Nationsl-Bank notes with greenbacka at the counter of banke of issue, and a eystom of ropoing_ . to _inaugurato m&(h\z identical with that of Now York State adoptod fu 1837, aud which operated so success- fally and satisfoctorily for noarly twenty-fivo yoars. R, MHORTON donounced this as a proposition to depreciate Natioual-Banl notes, o #nid no meorit in it, 3o was in favor of tho Fonton amondment so for 08 it roluted to free-banking, but ho thought the Senata would be o remarkably pious body if 3ts membars would pay ag much attention to tho xodemption ofgoula ny they did to the rodemp- tion of ciroulating votes. Mr. Schurz donied that by this proposition National-Bank notes wonld ba dopreciated in valuo, Qu thae othar hand, ho bolieved it would givefloxibility to that cireulating medium, TENTON'S AMENDMENT s lost by o voto of 87 against 14; and those offored by Mr. Buckinghom s o substituto for -tho pouding freo-bauking proposition woro also votod dovwn’ by o large mujority, Tao question seecuszing ugon tho0-callod Logon nmoddiont & motion to adjourn was ecarricd, contrary 3o the wishos and n!xl‘pulflu ot tho inflated oxpunsionists, \who wero anxious to eit until tho pending ques~ tion was disposed of. Judging by appearancos +ou tho floor and tho exprassed desites of o ma~ sjority of tho Bonate,- the final voto on this may ‘'bo roachod to-morrow, oven if that result lis to ,:bto nc‘cempuslmd by o night session or by sitting it out. p © . IN TUE HoUSE, Noyw that the Louisvillo & Portland Canal bill has been digposed of, the Houso will rosume consideration of the Financinl bill that camo ofrom the DBanking and Curroncy Committos, upon which dobata will continua sovornl dnys.

Thig would give the West and South sixty to goventy millions more than thoy now have, which would be sufticiont, and the friends of the proposition clalm, for all thelr wants, and it ‘would ba © BETTING A LIMIT SOMEWHIERE, after all tho wild inflation.
