Editor of the Evening Star : Yourremarks upon “Industrial Schools,” last evening, were timely and excellent. Crime is rapidly increasing.

SENATE.—Mr. Sherman reported back the House meseage returning the Senate tariff bill, and seid the Fimance Committee were unan mous in the opinion that the Senate had as cight to propose amendments to revenue bills as to any other bills. The powerof the Senate was lisputed now for the first time in the history or che goverrment. As this question was in the ure of one affecting the privileges of the Sen ate, the Finance Committee recommended that t be referred to the Committee on Privil: and Elections, ‘The matter was, after some discussion, re erred to the Committee on Privileges and Eloc ions. Mr. Sumner presented joint resolut ons of the Massachussetts legislature in favor of the French poliation claims, which was read and laid eu he table.

Mr. Hitchcock advocated the amen ment, after which it was adopted. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.—The | Speaker laid before the House a large number ot Executive documents, which were referred to ppropriace committees—after which the r: ar order was demanded, and the House, in morning hour, resumed the consideration of bills eported from the Committee on Post Offices and Post Koads, urged that the frank ge was not a privilege of Congresem: ilege of the people, and he urged an ent which Mr. Mil declined to admit, g that petitior Congres and sach documents as are puol or procured w either house of Congress, sball be sent free, Mr. Potter (N. ¥. mpracticable in that it made no provision for be transmission of government matter, which n the departments often exceeded the salary of he head of the bureau. He wan | vuncembe legislation done away with, and omething practicable done. He advocated a | tampi machine for each department and House of Congress. and an account kept wich | ach by the Post Oftice Department. ‘Mr. Butler (Mass.) said, personally, he would ve pleased to see the franking privilege abol- shed, but it wasa privilege that belonged to he people. He charged that the oatery came rom the metropolitan press, that desired hrough its associated telegraph and other ar. angements to crush out the country press. He hould vote against the bill. If he voted before or it, he did so with the understanding, as verybody else did. that it the House voted for ‘ehate would vote against it.
