C., March 3.—The House, In day session, nccomplished & good deal of work, At 1L o'clockc it nssembled to com- mence the Inst legislative day of the Forty- sixth Congress. 1t was with great difleulty that members could reach the Capitol in any public conveyance, and with greater difil- fleulty that they could find thetr way to thelr seats, Strangers of every grade und condl- tlon, members of State Legislatures with gray badges, soldlers {n unifurm, officers in gala attire, office-seckers, buttonholing members and presswmg the dnquiry, “Do you know the Cabinet yet?” erowded every corridor and ° approach to the hall of the House of Representatives, Yet the crowd is but n foretaste of that which Is expected to-morrow, THE JOURNAL of two days’ sesslon had 10 be read, and it was some thne before the House could reach the veto message of the Funding bill, which wits broughit early and Inid upon the Speak- er's tuble, Some miscelianeous business was transacted, Including the agreement to one or two conferenice reports, when the message was presented to the Iouse. The reading of it was lHstened to with marked nttention on all skies, notably .by the Green- backers and the Democrats. The Intter elahned to see In it the basis of anew issue In politics, whieh would Involvo the unestlon of the existence or destruction of the Nutionnl banking system. It wasnoticed | that the President’s opposition to the bitl wis bused upon the arguments of the Seere- tary of the Treasury and the Controller of the Currency, us presented to the Senate Committes on Finunce, in'opposition to the bill AT TIII: CONCLUBION OF THE READING the proper courss would have been u motion that the bill should pass, the Presldent’s veto notwithstanding, but the Democruts were not dispused to take this course, They seemed to delight fn an opportunity to offer one more indignity to n Republican Adminlstra- tiot, nnd they made thelr Inst leglslative day consplenous for an net of gross parliament- ary discourtesy. ‘Thoy were at first disposed to allow the bill to remnin upon the Speak- er'stable witheut any further mention, but the Itepublicans forewl them to make n record on the question, and, Anally, by o strict purty vote, they decided to nllow the messago to remain upon the table without action. Of course, THIS 13 TOE END OF FUNDING FOR TIUS CONGRESS, 18 the expedient suggested by Mr. - Hoar In the Sennle, of attachng ' shinple fundlng scheme, stripped of repressive features, to the Deticiency o], was not successful, his amendment having been stricken out. An- other curlous fneldent fn the procecdings of the closing day was the passaga by the llouse of an apportlonment bitl, which was the ill recommended by the Republican minority of tho Censua Committee, and which fixed the number of Representatives at 319, Mr, Cox has hind the mensire vory much at heart, and has been restive at the fact that THE AVPORTIONSIENT WILT, hias been put askde on so many veeasions, He was notleed to be busy mmong the Repub- Ilean members of the Census Commitice this worplug, and the result of it was a partlal agreement that & proposition shoubd be sub- mitted to suspend the rules and to vote upot the numbers $23, 819, 815, and 307, Mr, Cox desired to have the condition Inserted that the Republicans should ngree not to re- sort to dilatory tacties. They would not cousent to this, however, but the result showed that Cox's suggvstion was quite unnceessary, a8 the — Republicans “ear- ried the “day, The motlon to {ix the number at 23 was rejected,—yeus, 1105 nays, U vhich was a strietly party vote, ‘Thie rotl was then cnlled on the nunber 19, The proposition was adopted by n vots of Bl o 125, oud the result was loudly appliuded by the Hepublienns, ‘Che following D erats voted to fix that nimbe S Beltzhoover, Bicknll, Coflroth, Felton, T, Hutehfs, Now, Richardson (8.
