Both houses yesterday concarred Feport cf the Cor{reace Qommittee upon the Ditl repealing the teuare of office act, and it there'ore only needs the sigmature of the President to become a law. It is claimed with quite equal pertinaxcity aod Maeacy of atga- met that the repealers Dave guiaed every- thing, and that the anti-repealers have con- crded nothing: the logical inference would be therefore, that the committee report strikes a pretty fair average between the sides. Wedo not see, Dowever, that the power of suspension as conceded m this bill differs materially from the power of removal; as the displaced offi is not by its provisions capable of restoration by tbe Senate,the process of gettimg rid of an obsoxious officer is a little more circumlocu- tury than by direct removal, bat he goes out and stays out. There seems to be thought thar the bill will receive the signature of the President, and then the grist of the appoint- ments will go im pretty rapidly to the Sena- torial hopper.

Dry Goods, The condition of the dry goods market for the past week bas been uncertain, fittul and ir- regular, and rather bewildering ‘to those who were @pxious to operate with an eye to the future. In certain styles of goods there bas been a decided scarcity, with a tendency to bigher prices: while in others there has been An evident disposition to sell, with a marked tendency to a decline. But upon the whole. the variations do not amount to a positive change im the tone of the irket, and bat for the strin- gency im money and the difficulty of selling dry goods paper, itis probable that we might have bad to report an advance of pric In unbleached shirtings and shestings con- siderable sales Baye been eifected, but prices are a sbade lower. In most of the standard makes a decline of aif acent a yard has been established. But this reduction does not appear tostimulate purchases, and it is not altogether unlikely that a still farther decline will be sab- mitted to by the manufacturers’ agents. No material changes can be quoted in bleached sbirtings and sheeting. The more popular of the standard makes command the top prices of our quotationsg but in the less popular styles pTices are less firm, and in some cases a lower Tate has tobe conceded by the seller. Tae tone of the market 1s not favorable to @ ri.e, bata steadiness of prices may be counted on uatil the Deighth of the season is passed.

The report was then concurred in—yeas 42, nays S—M srs. Bayard, Casserly, Davis, Me- Creery, Sprague, S ockton, Sherman and Vick- ers.

The House then resumed the consideration of the Dlississippi bill, the pending question being on the motion of Mr. Farnsworth w postpone the whole subject until next session. Mr. Dawes (Mass.) proceeded to address the House on the general question of recoustrue- tion, arguing that before the unreconstructed States are admitted to representation in Gon- gress their governments should be republican in form; that they should receive the assent of the people of the States, and that they must command such support within the bounds ot the State as will enable them to maintain t selves. He eulogized the Congressional plan of reconstruction. and argued that it was the only method by which the late rebel States could be restored to the Unton. Ioasmuch as there was not time at this session to give the matter the carefal consideration which it de- served, he hoped it would be postponed until the next session.
