The Committea is apparently moro divided than ever. The so-called hard-moncy party in the caucas and in the Committeo rocog- nizing what they think to bo tho necossity of making a compromise with the inflationiats, or s anti-contractionlsts,” as thoy call thomsolves, aro willing to agreo to & repeal of tho Curroncy act of 1876 provided somomoans nowinally look- ing to resumption at s distant date bo subatituted for it. This part of tho Com- mittes would probably agreo to Payno's bill, either an it was origiuslly introduced in the Housoe or with cortain modifications which havo becn supgested, No vote hag ss ot beon taken in Commlttoe, and, ssits meotings are socrot, thersis no way of finding how many of its membora would bo willlng to agreo to such » bill. v LEFT TOVIN, tir.

Both parties oro of the high- et standiog, and gouerally estoomod, THE GENERAL DITRESSION is that & majority of the Committeo, following tho fead of Chairmen Dright and Holman, will vote agalnet any such measuro, and inalst npon tho ropesl of tho obnoxlous act with- out aprecing to = substitution of any .other monsuro for it. It may be authori- tatively assorted that no proposition for issuing any groater volumo ol paper ourroncy than is now in ciroulation bas beon considered by tho Committes. Somo of its membera do proposo tho ropeal of tha Nationsl Banking law and the substitution of o greonback currency for tha Natiounl Baok circulation, but it is bolioved that this sentimont is not strong coough in the Democratio party to carry it through the Ilonse, Tho paseago of the bill repealing thio Resump- tlon act of 1875 MAY BE COXFIDENTLY LOORED FOR. The Vemocrats, inclnding thoso who favor a sound currency, will almest unanimously sup- port such a measare, and it will aleo recelvea con- sidorable numbor of votes from smong tho Ropublicans, Previous to tho action of the Topublican Convontion [u Indiaoa, it was roported that all, or nearly all, tho Itepub- lican Ropresentatives of that StateIn tho Houso would vote for sach a bill, and that it would algo receive the votea of many Ropubliczns from Obio and other Westorn and Southern States. Bright, Chatrman of tho Caucus Committoe, and who probably represents o large oloment smong the Domocrats, {8 not only in favor of repeallug tho TResnmption act of last year, but is strongly op- posed to any measurs looking to o return to specio payments, and holds TYE STHANGE DOCTRINE that contraction carticd to its utmost oxtent woutd not approciate the value of our curroucy, ~—would in reality cause the premium on gold to bo groater than it now fs. lleisuot in faver of the accumulation of coin iu tho Treasury for ultimato reanmption of specio paymonts, bo- cause ho balioves it would b impossible for tha Government to provent tho coin from flawing out of tho countryas rapidly as it was paid out by tho Treasury Doparimont. Ha says tunt & roturn to &peclo payment whilo tho United Stated owes #o large o foreign debt, tho intorest upon which 18 to bo lmld in gold, {8 entiroly out of tho question, and Hnt tho ouly way in which reszmption can be brought about s by a reduction of the debt hold in foreign countrics. Itis not undorstood that ho favors any extremo measurcs to bring this abuat, 88 hio describes the financial condition of the Southern poople as vory doplorable, and would bardly liston to a proposition to iucroass taxation for tho purpose of rapidly payiug off tho national debt. Whils tho nnti-hard-monoy Jontinont {8 very strong in the ITouso, 1t is AN INTERESTING FACT that hardly o singte membor of that body will admiv that ho is 1o favor of au,increase in the volume of the currency. In tins rospect, at leant, sowo advancement of sentiment in Con- gress towards sound eurrency views has beon mado during the last two years, Previousto tho pusseg of tho Rosumption uct of 1875, & vory arge numbor of tho membors of both Ifousea favored nn expansion of the currancy to at lenst ,000,000. Now, whilo somo of the inflo- . tiobista favor a substitution of grecnback cur- rency for bank-note circulation, tlioy all claim to be simply opposed to any furthior contraction of tho currency, and not in favor of suy oIpan~ sion of its total volume.
