A vote was allowed on an unrestricted . The bill was indefinitely postponed in the Senate and defeated in the House. Indeed, Mr. ‘Windom, who yesterday objected to the resolu- tion for adjournment, was afterwards ready, upon the suggestion of President Hayes, to withdraw the objection, but was informed that if he did Mr. Conkling would revive It.

SENATE.+ The Chaplain, in his opening prayer, alluded to the approaching adjourn- ment, and invoked a special divine blessing upcen the members of the Senate during its dis- perston. Mr. Allison, from the committee on Myon ‘iors, reported with amendments, House joint resolution in relation to pay of committee clerks, pages and other employes of the Senato and House, and similar purposes. Among the committee amendments is the provision for additional pay to female Treasury clerks, dis- charged under the reduction of force in the ‘Treasury Eee under the legislative ap- propriation bill, which was attached to the Senate aoe resolution, which this resolution is intended to replace. The committee amendments were agreed to and the joint resolution was passed. On motion of Mr. Eaton, the House joint resolution, fixing Monday, June 30, at 4p. m., as the time of final adjournment, was taken up. Mr. Eaton moved to strike out “Monday, June 30th, at +R m.,” and insert “Tuesday, July 1, at 5 p.m.” The committee on appropriations had, after mature deliberation, not felt able to fix an earlier hour, as there was business yet to be transacted by both houses. Mr. Windom said bis side had now exhausted all the i Seen powers conferred upon them by the rul coe Senate in order to See = majority to make necessary appropriations for manele, The President so far as Mr. Windom knew, exhausted all the powers pos- sessed by him on the subject. He had made a patriotic appeal to Congress to do Its duty and not go home without making necessary appro- rations. Mr. Windom quoted from the Presi- Sen's message to Congress of yesterday and from the laws defining the duties of marshals. What would be thought of a state legislature that would adjourn without See hem provi- sion for sheriffs to execute the laws of the state? Mr. Kernan.—Is it not true that the bill vetoed yesterday appropriated $600,000 applicable to the execution of all the laws that are meationed in that message? It simply prohibited its use to pay special deputy marshals for attending elections. If a state should provide money for all ordini expenses of sheriffs in enforcing laws, would it be extraordinary if the legisla- ture saw fit to say:—“We won't permit you to use this money to have special deputies to ar- aa = without process on one particular subject?” Mr. Windom.—That will not do. Whatever the original bill may have said on that subject. I offered one yesterday that sald nothing about deputy marshals, but only marshals and their general deputies; and every democratic Sena- tor voted for its indefinite postponement. Mr. Kernan.—Yes, after we had added a sim- ple provision that the money should not be ‘used for other purposes, which the President does not specify. Mr. Windom continued by Eacdehe 9 that for four years a eo House — 4 appropriation containing a al tanes that the provisions of Title 2, of the Ke- vised Statute, should be enforced. He thought this a curious fact, in view of the present atti- tude of the party. He referred to the asser- tions of prominent democratic Senators, that ‘under no circumstances would necessary appro- priations be allowed to fall. Those Senators now sat silent, while the party carried out the threat made at the 0] ing of the session, to coerce the Executive into endorsing certain ‘po- litical measures as the condition of allow- ing the government to go on. The republicans had done all in their wer DI and would not now further oppose the adjourn- ment resolution. If the dem Meinl could afford er the people with such a record, = pcena licans certainly could rest upon e Mr. Hereford made a few remarks, throwing the biame for the failure of the appropriation for marshals upon the President. Mr. Windom said part of the court expenses had been jeer for, but it was as if shot and shell bad been furnished and powder denied. ‘The arm was Mr. Eaton thought Mr. Windom had not visit- ed by ‘Kind Nature’s Sweet Restorer” last night. He must have had anightmare. The Attorney General, he ° given an inion that marshals could appoint an army of deputies if they chose. It was therefore necessary to insert in a bill making appropiia- tions for marshals, a clause appointments. He resented Mr. Windom’s as- sertion that the democrats would be responsi- ‘bie for non-execution of the decrees of the courts, and said the republicans were open to such a charge, Mr. Carpenter asked Mr. Eaton if he thought the army appropriation bill authorized the use of troops at the polls in any form whatever. Mr. Eaton did not think'so. If it did, he haa made a great mistake in voting for it. ae Carpenter entirely agreed with Mr. Eaton. Mr. Eaton was ified. He entertained a high opinion of . Carpenter's legal ability, and hoped his opinion would at the other end of the Avenue. committee, a single Objection. would detent com! a single ol ion wi present consideration. He desired it to be con- ‘sidered in the Senate and The Senate reconsidered the vote by which the “free quinine bill” was yesterday referred to the committee on finance, and proceeded to consider that bill.

The Avalanche used such as would create the impression that no such inter- but finding that it had been published, with some incorrect statements, he he had felt it due to Mr. Hubbell and himsel, to have them cor- rected. Mr. Hi had never denied and never Would deny that that conversation took place. Mr. Hubbell admitted that the interview had taken pisces, but thought that if the gentieman from Kentucky had informed him of his mis- take when he had bof tiga him that gentie- man would not have found it Lees dl tomake a personal explanation. He had no ili-will to- ward the gentleman en Kentucky, but if that mtleman had had sense to keep quiet ie would not now have been rising to deny that he had ever been drunk. [Laughter.} Mr. Turner inquired why Mr. Hubbell did not ‘State what he had said and what had oocurred. Mr. Hubbe.l.—Because I thought it so simple and so foolish a matter, and of so little import- ance, that I never intended to allude to it, and I never should have if the gentleman had not. {Laughter.] He said further that the affair was So funny that he sometimes laughed about it when he was alone. The great democratic party felt outraged to think that the republicans were trying to curry favor with the greenback party. It was awful bad. It wasa terrible thing in politics. [Laughter.] Ever since the greenback pe rty had been o1 ized the democratic party had tried to curry favor with it, and had made {t all sorts of promises, and now it wasa ter rible thing for the republicans to try to use it against the democrats. Awful! [Laughter.} Mr. Turner gave a shoit account of an inter. view which had taker place sul ment to the one already referred to, as to the exact language used on that occasion. The subject was then dropped. The bill relative to te pay of committee clerks, &c., was received. with amendments from the Senate, the amendments non-con- ree in, and a conference coramittee was ordered, ‘The House then resumed the consideration 0 the business of the morning hour—being the bill prohibiting political assessments. ‘The republicans resumed their dilatory tac- tics, and at the expiration of the morning hour the bill went over without action. eens ‘was received from the Senate stating that that body had agreed to the House resoiu- Uon for final adjournment, with an amendmeat fixing the time for adjournment at 5 Pp. m, t2- day. Mr. Morrison moved to concur in the amend- ment. The Senate amendment was then concurred in—yeas 93, nays 65.

Perplexing Position of the Bona- PArtists. . The Times correspondent at Paris says:—A Majority of the Bonapartists are understood to concur with M. Rouher in acknowledging Prince Jerome Bonaparte as chief of the Napo- leonic dynasty. They argue that the will of the late Prince Imperial, which asks the ex- Empress Eugenie to co-operate with Prince Victor, was written on the assumption that the testator would survive Prince Jerome Bona- parte. This reasoning, however, is considered a transparent excuse for the non-observance of the impracticable will of the Prince oe M. Rouher's retirement from active politics 1s evidently 01 to a feeling that he and Prince Jerome could not act and the latter could not be set aside, What between Prince Jerome Bonaparte’s possible adherence to the republic and the impossibility of the clerical section of the Bonapartists a leader without either against the Prince Impe- Tial’s will or provol a distinct disavowal from Prince Victor, the tists are in one o1 most perplexing posit ever occupied by any party.
