March 16.—Tho Senate devoted tho afternoon to tho consideration of the “Star” Route Defloioncy bill, remaining in session until nearly 6 o'clock, but arriving at 110 conclusion, Mr. Heck, of ‘Kentucky, spoke at length in¢uis usual foreible manner, and quoted from tho statements of: Postimaster-Generat Key to show that tho law had beon defied by that official, who claimed all the Whilo that ho was promoting tho public good.

Somo of his criticlsms were vory severe.

It was unjust to the growing communities of the West. Mr. Wallucs pointed out that €100,000 was an proprinted fur necessary new service. It seemed to him the neople could get along a fow months without increused trips. Pending the debuto, tho Sonate adjourned. KELLOGG AND: SPOFFORD, THE VOTE ON THE CASE. Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasitinaton, D.C. March 10.—Tho scone in the Senate Committee on Privilegesand Elec- tions this morning, just before tho final vote was taken in tho Kellogg-Spofford cage, is de- scribed by an eye-witness tohave been Intensely dramatic. Tho Democratio Senators had not sald a word In defense of tho great outrage thoy wore about to perpetrate, and no roport had even. heen prepared. Ben Hill was clamoring for a voto on two propositions,—firat, that Kellogg be not entitled to his seat; second, that Spofford bo declared cntitled to m seat. At this juncture Senator Honr, of Massachusetts, sprang to his fect, and fortho next half-hour told the majority of thoCommittes what ho thought of tholr course. Ho Informod them that thoy were about to commit a great crime, and that it was meet that the party which had, nineteen yeara ago, fred upon the flag ot the Union and had tried to destroy this Govern mont, should be guilty of tt. Ho delicately ro- ininded thom that out of the six members of tho minjority, threo were ex-Hebels and two wore REBEL SYMPATHIZERS, and intimated that perhaps their conduct was not 60 very remarkable. Mr. Hoar next alluded to the Maino affair, and affirmed that the party which attempted to ateal o Stato was not incon- alstent in ondeavoring to steal a scat in the Seu- ate. Mr, Hoar'a aggressive mannor and bold! and truthful'torda took the mafority comp loto- ly by surprise. No one responded. Tué vote* wns taken, and tho resolution to unseat Kelloge and to scat Spolord was passed by the following voto: - Yous—Saulabury, Hill, Kernan, Bailey, Pryor, and Vanco, laye—Loar and Cameron. Gen. Logan was absent ‘The report will probably not bo ready for soy~ eral days. It may be two or thres weeks before tho ense fs called’ up, Tho Republicans will ox- haust all legitimate menus to prevant the con- summation of this giguntic steal, and the debate will bo ono of tho most notable arrnignments of Daranetucy. thut Congress has witucused for ye KELLOGG AND MILL. Tho Democrats of tho Senate, under the lead of Mr. Thurman, to-diy cumo up os ono man ta tho help of Mr, Hill, Senator Kellogg, in calling up his resolution, charged without qualification that r member of the senate (meaning Hil, 1s every one understood) had charged him (Kellogg) with'setting on foot an infamous schemo to cn~ trap Hill for the sako of intluoncing the vote in tho Kellogg case, Mut in tho fuce of thia direct charge affecting tho porsonal integrity of a Sonator, and considering the ulacrity displayed by Domoernts in tho Sunate and House of lato yours to investigate all sorta of matters, it was t noticable fuct that overy Democrat voted to lay this request of Kellogg on the table, CONTESTED ELECTIONS. M'CADE AND ORTH. Bptcat Dupatch to The Chicago Tribune, Waatrxaton, D. C., March 16,—The Houso Committce on Elections virtually deolded by its netion this morning to reopen tho contested casa of MeCabo against Orth, and toinvest the formor with all tho rights and privilegea which bo would have enjoyed hnd he prosecuted his contest moro than a your ayo,as tholaw roquirod. Air. Mo- Cnbe has nover brought before the Committco any ovidenco to show that this indulgonce ought to be oxtended to him, Indoed, thera is excel- lont ronson to bellove that, except for tho party ox!goncles of the Domocraoy, and for tho strong pressure which has been brought to bear upon him by tho leaders, Mr, SicCabo would nover have appeared nga contestant at all. Ilo has nevor noted as though ho himgolf believed that he had any sufficient ground on which tp bason claim tothoseatof Mr. Orth, Thoro is littleor no doubt that on noxt Tucsday the Committee will vote to put the caso of McCabe on exactly tho sane. fuoune which itoccupled a year agu lust ecembur, Tho Committee had the Minnesota caso under consideration again this morning, A vote upon it was postponed until noxt Thuniday In order to ALLOW THK VIEWS of the minority, a8 presented by Gen. Kolfer, to be printed. If thore bas nt any time been any real hesitation among the Democratic lenders tn regard to the adoption of tho qutragvous con- olusiong reported by. Mr, Manning and hla asso- clutes of the sub-Committcs, it healtution appears to have vanished. Tho Democratic leaders baye no doubt felt many misgivings as to the yotos of two mombors of the Committe, —Mr, Clark, of New Jersey, and Bir, Speor, o Georgia. From appearances to-day tt is judged that tho Demverats are contident that both these gentlemen have at Inst been persuaded to sure ronder thelr own conyictions sof justice and right to the deniands of party necessity. Prob- ably it has beon sugyested to Mr. Clark and Mr, Speor that it 1s very dungeroud for u Democratic miumber of tho Elections Committoo to differ from bis purty associutes in regurd to tho merits of # contested caso, It may huve beon paluted out to thom thata Democratic member of that Commities in the Forty-fourth Congress, who had {udopendence enatigh to sign uw report in favor of a Republican, although bo lacked grit to stand by the roport tn tho House, aud voted with bis party, wag - NEVERTHELESS LEFT AT HOME by his constituonts.

It remains to bo seon whothor Mr. Clark and Mr, Spoer will at tho Jast moment take warning by tho fate of Mr. Jones, of the Forty-fourth, and Mr, Eunice, of tha Borty~ fifth Congress, and 4 consont to aaoriflee thule real convictions, PUBLIC PRINTING, DEUATING THB DEFICIEROY, Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, ‘Wasninaton, D, O., March 18.—The House de+ voted ite dobute to-day to the Immodiato Dofl- clency bill, Gen.

REINSTATEMENT OF ae EMBEZZLER IN THA VY. 4, # : Srectal to Oineinnats Enquirer, Wasntnaton, D. ©, March 14.—Just now the officers of tho navy are vary much exercised ovor tho reinstatement of a nophow of the Rav. H. W. Bellows, of Now York, in tho Paymastar's corps, from which ho was dismissed in 1800 by Secretary Welles for embozzlement of Govern- ment moneys. The facts in the case of Pay- master Edward Bellows, according to tho record on file, are as follows: In July, 1868, ho was serving on board the United States ship Shamo- kin, then stationed at Montovideo, Uruguay, und on or about the 6th of tho month ho drow from Baring Bros. & Co.,of London, onc set of exchange in favor of Commodore D, Iu Hraing, then in command of the Shamokin, for £3,000, and recoived for sald set of oxchange from the London and River Platte Bank. at Montovideo $14,27.44, and credited the United States Government with only $13,013.0t as tho proceeds of salt set of oxobange,—or, in other words, defrauded the United States Government of about $414.40, On or about the 3d day of Aus sunt, 1808, the vessel boing still at Montevideo, Paytmastor Dellows drow upon Barlug Brothors anothor sot of exchange In favor of Commodora Braine for £4,000, and for this set of exchange received from the London and River, Pintte Bank $50,437.23 gold curronoy, and only credited the United States Governmont with having ro- cotved $1,012.03,—or, in othor words, defrauded the United States of about £105.20, ei Conmnodore Brame accidentally had his mise picions aroused in regard to these two transac tions of Bellows, and ordered n court of inves- tigation, which:met and found tho facts to be as above stuted. The papors in rej vestigation were duly forwarded to Rear- Adiniral Davis, then in command of the South Atlantic squadron, anda navul general court- martial was ordered by bim to try Rellows, and he was tried by court-martial ‘on onrd tha United States atoamer Pawnee, In tho harbor of Montevideo, the trial beginning upon tho 7th day of Novembor, 1818. Admiral Davis. pro- ferred the charges ugainst Paymaster Hollows, which were as follows: “ Violution of Sve. 2 of nn act for tho better governinent of the Nuvy ot the United States, npproved July 16, 1862." nd with the charge preferred two spccifien« tions, setting forth tho facts os nlroady stated. ‘The manager and accountant of tho London and Hiver Pintto Bank testified that the bani pnid to Paymaster Bellows the stnounts stated above, andtho United States Consul at Montevideo swore thut their evidence was worthy of belief. THERE WAS ALSO IN EVIDENCE a lotter from Paymaster Bellows to Roar-Admi- ral Duvis regarding the amount.of money ro+ ceived from these two bills of exchange, in which Mr. Bellows says that the rat netted him $1300.04, and the second netted “hin $19,012.03, ‘There was also o letter “from Paymaster Bellows to Com- mander Hraine, under date of Aug. 6, 183, re- porting the umount of money recoived from the second bill of exchange us $19,142.0), and a letter from Paymuster Bullows to tho Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy, under dnte of Aug. 3, 1608, in which Uellows roporia having Uravn the second bill of exchange, and reporta the amount of money received for the same fire ure, to-wit; $19,052. Tho tindIng of tho courte martial wis “guilty,” and the sentenco was 1a follows: “To make gol to the United States Government the umount'of money, $909.00, of which the suld Government was defrauded by him, and to be disminsed from the naval service rte United States." He was accordingly dis- m seed. In viow of these facta, which are all of record inthe Navy Department, thore would scom to be no question whatever but that Paymaster Del~ lows did embozzle moneys belonging to the Uulted States, was tried” and convicted by a naval neni court-mnrtinl, and was dis uilased from the service therefor by Becectary Welles. During Grant’s Administration the frionds of Mr. Bellows mado persistent. and stronuous offorta to get hin rofnatatod. The caso .wos placed in cl of two prominent lawyers hore {no ‘ashington, and every Intluenco that could be brought to bear was brought to bear to ins duco President Grant und Secrotary Robeson to revoke the action of Beoretary Welles and rein- stato Mr, Bollows.
