Spectal Dispatch to The Tribuna. WasmiNGTox, D. C.,Feb. 22.—The House had avery apimated session, and the Democrats made a record which will stop them from de- dlaring that they have not been opposed to pro- ceeding with the Appropriation bills. The Re- Dublicans twice sought totakeup the Legislative Appropriation bill, and were voted down each time by the Democrats. A record vote was taken which showed that the division was along the party line. The objective point of the Dem- oerats was to o to the Speaker’s table, 1n or- der that they might take action on the Senate amendments to the Tobacco Reduction bill. In this they were successful. After o protracted parliamentary struggle the Speaker’s table was reacbed, but it happened that almost the first bill upon the table was the original House-bill of last session to repeal the Resumoption act, with the Senate amendment in the nature of o substitute, authorizing the re- ception of lecal-tenders for custems dues. The subject came back upon the House LIKE A FORGOTTEN GHOST, and the debate was the echo ouly on greenback and inflation babbling of Corigresses trom the Forty-third until now. The House showed that events have taught the majority a lesson in financial wisdom which the two-thirds vote by which the Resumption Repeal act originally passed indicated it needed to be learned. By an overvhelming majority—the vote being 141 yeas to 110 nays—the House bill and Senate amendments were tabled, and the financial subject therewith dismissed for the session. But it was not to be- dismissed withous an carnest protest of the handful of Greeabackers, who refuse to beconverted. It was a parade day for Tom Ewing, Prince of Greenbackers aud candidate for Socaker of the next House. He did not let the opportunity escape him, but, in a formal speech, presented the amendments agreed upon by the Bauking and Currency Com- mittee a8 ITS DYING EFFORT, the nature of which were long since heralded to the public. The amendments were, bricfiy, first, that United States notes shall be received for bouds the same as coin, and for duties, pro- vided the notes reccived shall be applied to the redemption of bonds; second, whenever there are $3,000,000 of legal tenders in the Treasury, there shall be a call at thirty days for bonds; third, the Secretary of the Treasury sball not bave power to issue legal tenders in denomina- tions of §5,000 and $10,000 fof purposes of contractiny the currency; fourth, that no bonds shall be sold for resumption purposes. On this Ewing made & THE LAST FINAL STAND OF THE GREENBACKERS, io this Congress. Gen. Garfield characierized the speech as a belated ghost that had come back to the minds of those who had forgotten it. There was the same frantic wail that resump- tion would bea failure; that it could ot be sustained except ou the shoulders of the Gov- ernment; and that the Treasury, to maintain it, woula contract the currency, violate the law, and ruin industry. The contaut refraia of Ew- ing's speech was, that resumption would add to the bonded debt of the country and prevent vrosperity. To this soeech Gen. Garteld re- plied. The reception which his remarks met, and the vote which followed, shows that the House, at last. is_disposed to take 1ts bands off from the financial question. GEN. GARFIELD, in substanse, said: ** All good busingss-men and business interests are sayinz: *‘Let the currency alone; let business recover upon the basis that we now have.’” The storm-centre of daneerio this countryishere. Conmress should take its hands ofi from tinkering with the busi- ness of the country. There will never be any safety to the business as long as thereis a sin- ele Greenbacker left in the United States. If experinents shall show that Congress cannot be trusted to let the greenback currency aione, the unwisdom will be demoustrated of having auy such currency. The wisest thing is to let the whole currency legislation of tnis country stand exactly as it is to-day.” The House in- dicated its agreement by the vote. AN AMENDMENT proposed by Townsend, of Tilinois, directing the Seeretary of the Treasury to pay all indebt- edness under the Appropriation bifls fn equal proportions in silver, frold, and greenbacks, was only permitted to be read. It was not admitted foravoe. Juége Helley sought to keep up with Ewing in_his prediction of the failure of resumption, but his specch had no effect. Burcnard @nd Canuon, of Iilinois, both advo- cated non-interfercnce with the curreney. THE DEBATE IN THE HOUSE. To the TWestern_Associated Press. Wasni¥GroN, D. C., Feb. 22.—The second bill on the: table was the House bill for the repeal of 1he Resumption act. as amended by the Senate, providing that, after the passage of this act, United States notes enall be receivable the same as coin in payment of 4 gercent bouds, and after Oct. 1, 1878, they shall be receivable for duties on imports. Mr. Ewing, acting under suthority of the Committec on Banking Amendments, first, Stril L1, 1875, 508 to d States uotes immediately receivable for pavinent of customs duties; secand, Provided that the money Lercalter re. cerved from anv sale of United States bonds Dbonds bearing the highest rate of interest, and subject to call, and provided that, wheasver, from time to time, the nroceeds of the sales of bouds shall agereiate 3,000,000, the Secretary of the Treasury shall issne a cail for that amount of tonds, snd_interest o caited for redemption shall from the date of such cal shall be apolied only to the redemption of other - PRICE FIVE CENTS. reissued and kept in cireulation without change in the agpregate amount of the several denom. inations_ existing on May 81, 1973, und it shall pot be Iawlul to issue legal-tender notes of larger denomination than $1,000.” MR, EWING SPOKE in support of his amendment. He said the Senate amendment to repeal the bill which authorized the Sccretary of the Treasury to re- ceive greenbacks forcustomswould bringintothe Treasury $130,000,000 in greenvacks every year. In that way 313,000,000 of paper money, which was the active, mobile money of business, would be taken into the Treasury and held for three or six months, until the time came around to use it for the payment of interest on the oublic debt. Though -~ he felt that the provisions would interfere with the business of the country, still he was in favor of it, because he wanted to diemify the greenback aud give it all the powets of money, and beeause he wanted legislative deetaration after declaration that the odious purnose of the Resumptionact to destroy the best money the people ever bad bad, or ever ‘would nave, had been defeated forever, and that the greenback should go down to posterity as the most prominent and useful money io the country. ‘I'he amendment offcred by him, providing that called bonds - should bear “interest ouly thirty days after the date of tne calls, would save to theé people the interest for sixty days upon those bonds. But the main point o his amendment was that which prevented the further sale ot bouds of any denomination for resumption pur- poses. Referring to the scheme of resumption, lie said that the people COULD NOT GET A CHANCE TO OBTAIN GOLD. There was only one counter over which gold was passed, aud then in sums of not Jess than $50. ‘This country was in a condition of practi- cal enslavement 1o the forelzner. No less than $1,200,050,00 of its debt was held abroad. It hadl to pay no less than $70,000,000 a year to forcign shipping. In this way, aud by the spendings of Americans residing abroad or - traveling abroad, there was a dran of probably $1,500,000,000 a year from this country. It was thut drain which threatened the hoard of wold in the Treasury. Comdared with thatdrain the §141,000.000 of gold 10 the Treasury was a petty aud contemptible provision on which to base the tremnendous industrics of a _country, which werc to live or dic according to the success or failure of the resumotion scheme. . The pile of gold in the Treasury, although it mizht be fenced against the people of the United States, could not be fenced. against the foreizner. In con- clasion he 1 i s */NOW, FELLOW-CITIZENS, [Rozars of laughter shich for some time seemed o disconcert the gentleman), if 1 did believe it desirable thut resumption should be maintained just as itis, I would still put a 5top to the pow- &r of adding to, this hoard in the Treasury, and thereby adding to the calumity which will come from a withdrawal of greenbacks to procure fzold for this foreign drain. Thatis the purpose of the ameudment as reported by the Commit- tee on Banking and Carrency.” i ported the amendment offered by Mr. Ewiog. He said: “ Iu order to maintain the legzal-tender currency at par, be though it well to_adopt the Senate amendment. (tiat le- gal-tender notes be recelved for costoms da- 1ics), and also to adopt the amendment sub- mitted from the Committee on Banking and Carrency.” Mr. Townshend spoke in favor of the propo- sition, which be desired to offer as an amend- ment, to the effect thut, in payment of the ob- ligations of the Government (not spceia'ly re- quired to be paid 1n coin), gold, silver, and cur- rency should e used in equal proportion to the amount of these forms of mooey wwu ia the Treasury. Mr. Kelley declared bimself inflexibly op- posed to an increase of the bonded debt, and also to an artificial contraction of the volume of the carrency to which prices and business had 2qjusted themselves. The imcrease of the bouded debdunder the present Administration was over $160,000,000. 3B. GARFIZLD, IN A TONE OF BITTER IRONY, spoke of the debate as a solemn oceasion on which the unburicd remains of thatold “ sub- jeer,” which fad been supposed to b taid away 1n its lase resting-place, bad wandered back to these palls; “revisiting. the glimpses of the moon” “ft was a sort of be- lated bost. It brooght back the ecioes of the old curreucy debates ip the Fortieth, Forty-irst, and Forty-sczond Con- gresses. Those of his associates who, like him setf, believed in resumptiou, might- have possi- bly been excused for saying a littie now zud 1hen about its suceess. The British men-of-war uever passed Conenbazen witiout firing a broad- side in commemoration of the bombardment of ht years ago. S uds ol resumption ht” be excused if they ccasiopally fired o salute over its success; but . that the otiier side should fire a sort of feu de joie over that ‘‘lost cuuse’ was astonisi tle ridiculed (in passing) the spcech of Mr. Kol Jey, of Peuns¥ivania, puolished uader the flam- ing beading, *Kesumption mnpossible.” ir. Garticld went on to argue agalost the bill and amendments. - He said all the great business ia- terests of the country—all wise business-men— were saying, **Let the currency laws alone; let business recover itself on the basis we now have.” BUSINESS WAS RECOVERING. He recalled what he had said last gession, that The “storm-centre of danger * was this Capitol. He believed that it would have beeua great blessing at any lime witbin the Jast fivé years if Congress had passed the appropriation bilts and zoue home—it it had kept its bands off from tinkering with the currency and bustness of the countrs. Uis experiencefn the House made him fear there never would be permanent safety to the business of the country 50 long us there was a greenback left, because the greenbacks are a source of agitation and frritation. In con- clusion, he moved that the bill and pending amendiments be Iaid on the table. Mr. Pricealso argued against the bill and amendment: nd recalled the scenes in the ears azo, when the present ad- vocates of paper mouey denounced the green- back issue as worthless. He believed from the astacks made on the National banks that, even- tually, thev would be driven to the wall, and swild eat ™ currency woilld cowe into circulation again, “Ar. Ewing, ot Obio, replied to Mr. Garfield. ‘His colleazue talked, he said, AS IF LE RAD THE WHOLE P2OPLE AT IIIS BACK. In the elcctions of last [all the resumption ques- tion had enered into_the discussion in almost all the States. The Republicau parts, plantin itsclf on its achicvments of resumptions, and the o[;u sition party (whether Democrat or Na- tional) planting itself on the repeal of the Re- sumption faw, the Republican party bad come out of that contest in a minority in every State in the Union otsix. His colleague, therefore, should not *bank " oo highly on the assumption that the people of - the country were content with the resumption scheme. Resump- tion did not mean an eaualization of paper- money with gold. It meant the addition of from 50.t0 60 per cent to ihe burden of all debts and faxes to be paid by the peo- ple. Will the people permit adding to the burden of iheir taxes their natiocal, State, - municipal, rond. and individual debts, not less than ,000,000, by forcing prices down to the gold level? Unless the de- maugs of the peole were complied with by the passige of some such bill as this, the whole re- sumption scheme would be smashed, even thourh some political parties might have to be smashed. A Mr. Burchard, of Iilinois, opposed particular- Iv that feature of the amendment which pro- vided thut called bonds shall bear interest for only thirty days. If the power of the Secretary 0 accumulate coin was taken away, in a week all the legal-tenders in the country would be rushed into the Treasury for redemption. [t Was just as mecessary that the Government should have 2 reserve as that 2 back should haye one. Mr. Cannon was not willing to deprive the Secretary of his power to sell bonds for re- demption purposes, because certain rentlemen wanted to appear cousistent with their action in former times. Mr. Hazleton said the gentleman from Ohio (Ewing) had told the Honse to-day that he, as Fabius Maximus. would cleave the helmet of the present National banks. Whaen Jackson bad cleft the helmet of the old National bank he bad- scattered 16,000,000 of the people's money to the winds. - UPON TUAT GIGANTIC ERROK the Democracy was to horse itself and ride again to defeat. 5 Mr. Butier attemnted to get the floor, but was cay ofl by 2 motion for the previous guestion.

The paper contains an jaterview with Murat Halstead, in the course of which the latter gives expression to the following views: Speak- ing of the Presideatial vomination, he said be thougzht Secretary Shernan would beat Gen Grant for the Repuvlican nomination. Ile, said: “Sherman is a maa who, like Gen. Grant, has placed the country under 3 great obhga- tion. Gen. Grant guided the armies of the’ Union to the overthrow of the Rebeliion. Secretary Sherman guided the fnanccs of the country to the resumption of specic vayments. Both fizured fn important erises of the coun- try's history. Grant has been rewarded. Sher- man will pe. Sherman’s chances for the nowi- nation arc excellent. He is o very clear-hewfed man, and, moreover, what some of bis cnemies affect not to believe, on honorabile man. He lives a very pure, clean ife,~—above réproach,— and fs much given to bard work. His mind is constantly taken up with the affairs of State, which be handles with masterly judement.
