This is a gain of some three millions despite the reduc- Uon of the tax on tob: . In reality, phon, the receipts from tol 0 have fallen off. ‘he gain is due to the more thorough enforcement of the revenue laws in thesouth. The breaking bp ot the tobacco ring in New Orleans adds $10,000 & month to the internal revenue of the country. THe Mussissirri River CoMMission.—The President to-day sent to the Senate the follow- ing nominations as members of the commission provided for in the “act to provide for the ap- pointment of a ippi river commission,” which was approved Le ee et Harri- son, of Indiana; James B.

WTeE New Issuer or Disrricr Bonps.—Secre- tary Sherman has addressed the following note to Assistant Secretary of the Treasury French, ‘Treasurer Gilfillan and First Auditor Reynolds: “Gentlemen: Refer to the act of Congress ap- proved June 10th, 1879, authorizing the issue ot Certain bonds of the District of Columbia and to the Re par advertisement inviting bids for said bonds, I have to request that at twelve o'clock noon on Lage next you will open and report on all bids which have been received at the department up to that time.” The advertise- ment referred to fs for bids for the $1,092,300 five peT.cent. bonds, the pi of which are to applied to the retirement of the six per cent. ered stock of the Old corporations of ‘ashington and town, which includes five issues.

Ex-REPRESENTATIVE GLOVER has written a letter to Representative Singleton severely crit- \cising the latter for his course relative to the printing of his (Glover’s) report. Glover says a leton misrepresents and does discredit tobis party by his course; that the House would order his report printed if the matter could once’be submitted to tt; that he has been treated With great discourtesy and that Mr Singleton 1s used by “unseen persons” to suppress the report. In closing, Le ar Mr. Glover says Mr. Single- ton’s course will defeat him for Senator from ‘Missiasippl. SENATOR CONKLING AND THE OHTO CAMPAIGN. It was announced some days ago that Senator Conkling had declined an invitation extended ‘him by Chairman Robingon, of the Ohio repub- to goto Ohio and seroma Maar id and “senator, we would like to have you come to Ohio and make a few speeches in the state ai the campaign.” “Are there no republicans in Ohio?” queried the Senator. “Oh, yes,” said Mr. Robinson, “but oneor two es from you in our state would help Mr. er, and the republican ticket.” At the an- nouncement of Foster's name, the Senator a: sumed a meditative air “Foster, Foster, Foster,” said he “I presume you refer to’ Charles ” «T do,” ied Chairman Robinson. “Well,” said the Senator, “He is a republican 1s he? I am very glad to hear that Charles Foster Le — ut I assure youl never knew THE Late GEN. SULLY.—In reference to the Statement in THE STAR of the 2th instant, copied from the Yankton (D. K.) Herald, “that the only person to whom any of ly's large fortune of right belongs is his half- breed daughter, Julia, at [heel living with White Swan’s band of Yankton Indians, eighty miles above thig place, on the Missouri,’ etc, Ellen Sully Wheeler, No. 23 Grant Place, writes us a8 follows: “This ogee gage slander 1s alike unjust to the gallant dead as it 1s lacerating to the affec- Uons of the living. A more devoted soldier, & truer patriot, ora mote polished gentleman, never died in the service of our country, His death carried a pang of sorrow, not only to his brother officers, but to all who knew his noble, generous character. So far ag the article states, that “General Sully inherited a valuable estate ip Philadelphia from his: father,” the illustrious artist, (whose fame will exist as long as art 18, cherished) like all artists, was but little blessed with worldly goods, and the pittance that fell to his only son was generously relinquished by him to his only unmarried sister. He did Not receive a dollar from his father’s estate. AS to his erg at bis death no wife nor any & well known fact that for e been married to an amiable and excellent lady, who cheered his last hours and who bas borne him several children to preserve his name and his honors. ‘The writer then gives a copy of the general orders from the depart- ment, dated 23th ao last,1n which the general commanding speaks in the highest terms of commendation of Gen. sully’s long and faithful service and pen character as an officer and Rendenians and she adds:—"The friends of Gen. ully can rest his fair name upon this glowing record, and allow the vile ‘slander Ty to recoil upon its mendadious authors.” PROF. GAMGEE, in a communication to Secre- tary Sherman, referring to a letter addressed by the Secretary to Dr. Cabell, president of the National Board of Health, and which was printed in THE STAR OR the 2th instant, says: “A contractor seeks first to secure a contract by bidding as low as he can, and then he at- tempts to make the greatest possible profit. ‘This would be simply fatal to so important a to initiate last December, and the failure of which would affect me much more than apy pecuniary loss.

ADJOURNMENT TO BE FOLLOWED BY A CALL FOR ANOTHER EXTRA SESSION. At twenty minutes past 2 this afternoon the President received the bill making the “regu- lar” appropriations for the judiciary of the United States. In accordance with the usual custom, the bill will be sent to the head of the department whose admintstration it effects—in thiscase to the Attorney General. The bill will, however, be approved by the Presiden ne t Nonday. The marshals’ bill, which is ding in the Senate, and will be passed, wlil fe ve od. If it reaches the President in tim *, his veto message will be sent in next Mon- day It willbe a short document, and will be 3ed upon the same ands as the recent veto of the judicial bill in its entirety—that of at- te npted nullification of existing laws. The qu stion WiLL THE PRESIDENT RECONVENE CONGRESS? t en arises, This matter, in connection with the Congressional programme, was under dls- cusston at the Cabinet meeting yesterday after- noon. All the members of the Cabinet favored @ vetoot the marshal bill and the approval of the “regular” judicial bill. ‘There wassome division, however, as to reconvening Con- gress after its adjournment upon the re- celpt_ of the next veto message. Such & procedure, it was thought, should not be had if it could be avoided. As the marshals will not be provided for, however, except in their salaries of $200 each, and as’ the whole machinery of the courts binges upoa the operations of thetr offices, a reconvention of Congress appears unavoidable. There seems to be no doubt that before Vopgress has ad- journed many hours a proclamation, calling it together again, will be issued by the President. Though no strictly official information to this effect has been received, THE STaR reporter ‘was informed that such would be the case from a source s0 authoritative as to warrant the assured statement that there will be another extra session of Congress. The Congressional Muddie. GOSSIP AT THE CAPITOL ABOUT AN ALLEGED BAR- GaIN, It Is rumored at the Capitol to-day, and gene- rally believed, that if Congress adjourns at 4 o’clock on Monday without providing for the pay of United States marshals, the President will forthwith issue his proclamation for an extra scssion of Congress to assemble on Tuesday rext. The President will veto the bill which ‘was the product of the last democratic caucus. It is believed, and 1s common talk at the Cap!- tol, that in view of some arrangement made with about fourteen southern democrats, the end will be that a bill for the pay of the marshals will be passed withous any riders. Western democrats say boldly that Gen, Garfield made a trade with certain south- ern Congresamen ‘whereby in consideration of licans the ropa allowing the bill to provide for the Mississippi river commission to be é, those Con their votes to help en it ler on his memo- | gressmen pl the passage of all of the appropriation bills be- fore Congress finally adjourned. “Why,” sald & western democrat to-day, “the trade is as ee ag the nose ona man’sface.

SENATE.—The President pro tem.announced his signature to the letter carriers’ deficiency bill, which now goes to the President. Mr. Vest, by juest, offered a resolution calling on the President for correspondence be- tween the State Department and Mexico in re- gard to the proposed survey of the northern States of Mexico for the austin and Tope-Co- vampa RR. Co. Adopted. Mr. Harris submitted a joint resolution that the Secretary of the Navy be and hereby 1s au- thorized to construct at the Washington and Norfolk navy yards the steam vessel and refrig- erating ship which the national board of health recommended to the Secretary of the Ti 0 and that the same be constructed under the su- P.Tvirion and according to the plans of the in- Yentor, George Gamgee and his engineers, and that sald Gamgee be allowed the actual costs of sich plans and Specifications, ‘not ex $500, together with reasonable compensation for his services and that of his engineers while Superintending such construction, and that the appropriation in the act authoriiag the con- tract for a refrigerating ship, or so much there- of as may be necessary, is hereby applied to the Construction of suen vessel aud macuine by the Navy department, Mr. Voorhees objected to the present consia- eration of the resolution. He “had about enough of this Gamgee business for the ses- sion.” The subject needed more ventilation than could be given it at this session. Mr. Voorhees had felt so severely the refrigerating influence of the question that even the hot weather did not prevent him from feeling it his duty to object to further discussion. Mr. Harris explained that he had no partiality for Mr.Gamgee. The board had decided his plan to be the best submitted. Prof. Gamgee now pcre to walve all profit on his inven- Uon in view of the question raised as'to adver- Usement, which he was unwilling to agree to, since his pians were not yet patented. ‘The resolution went over under Mr. Voorhees’ objection. ‘The president pro tem. laid before the Senate @ statement by the commissioner of patents raphic apparatus he: re . lerred to the committee on public lands. Mr. Vest’s resolution, declaring in favor of free coinage, was taken up, the question being on referring the substitute accepted by him to the committee on finance. The substitute is as follows: Resolved, That the complete remonetiz~ ation of silver and its restoration to a perfect equality with gold, both as coin and bullion are demanded alike by the dictates of justice and wise statesmanship. Mr. Morrill sald if there was any difference between the price of bullion and standard legal tender coin, it would, under this resolution, accrue to the bullion owner. In further re- marks he said the silver question was settling itself all foes the world, and hasty legislation was unwise. Mr. Kirkwood submitted an amendment to insert after the word ‘‘bullion” the words “‘at as early a date as these objects can be accom- lished consistently with the public welfare.” ie referred to the old maxim, “More speed.” He showed that the monetization, but did not think it could be hastened by Kotlar Poicseiacrt men” dif- recommending.
