Hotels and boarding-houses are comfortably filled, but not crowde ‘That means many people. From the way the White House looked this morning it seemed as if every stranger ia town was there. Men, women aud children, and babes in arms roamed over the rooms below and then crowded in front of the President's rooms up stairs, President Hayes for over two hours stood in bis office and shook hands with the people as they passed in on one side of the table at which the cabinet sit and our the other. Charley Loettler, the President's doorkeeper, had’a great deal of troubie in keep- ing the crowd from getting yuto the room ta suffocating numbers. At the different depart— ments the rush of visitors was also great, bat hot by any means to be compared with’ the crowd at the White House. Of the people now here tt is noticed that the rural specimen is in a very large minority. Four Years Business of the Govern- ment. OFFICAL, FINANCIAL ANB ECONOMIC STATEMENT.

Indefinttely postponed. Mr. Davis (W. Va) Stated in regafd to the Jotnt resolution for the payment of governm employees {n the District, which had bee ‘erred to the committee on appropriations, that committee had been so much engaged late the subject had not been considered. As the resolution and. belteving {t fo De 8 merit 9- Tous proposition, he now reported it at Lis ow Instance without any recommendation by Uk commitiee. Mr. Paddock made an ineffectual effort to have tke resolution constdered, being obliged to yield the floor to Mr. Beck for the sundry civil bUL. After disposing of business of no spectal 17 terest, the Senate took up the sundry civil propriation bill. Mr. Beck, who reported the bill, explained the Items of Increase made by the Senate com- mittee, premising as follow amount of the bill as it passed the House was about $20, 000, S the total as now reported to tn P an £40,000; the Senate having added $2,119,000. The aggregate was #9: the estimates and 3324,000 in ex of the tots cf eppropriations for the current fiscal yea The lems of the increase made by the Senat committee were made as follows: For the barge office building m New York, $100,000; for the assay office, York, $50,000; a new light ew A house on the coast of California, $40,000; con- structing a reyenue steamer for the gulf ‘coast (10 supply the Mss of one now useless), 375,000; for the bureau of engraving and printing, $50,000, Passing over a number of email items, be sald the committee had, upon quite urgent Tepresentath added $50,000 to the national board of health appropriation, and $200,000 to epable the superiuiendent of public bulldings to proceed with the cutting of granite for tle new west and center wings of the State, War and Navy department bullding—tnis last Increase being made Low so as to avoid a prob- abie delay of the work to follow from deferring the purchase aud preparation of the granite until the expiration of the coming fiscal year (in dune, 1$s2), when the season would be so far advanced as to leave comparatively little of of the Ume otherwise avatiable for the work. 11 bad also been made apparent to the committee that a ball for the safe keeping of records ot the executive Gepartments (a bill for this ob- ject having alresdy passed the Senate and being now in the House) ought to be erected; and $200,000 had be appropriated for asite for such a building, the same to be erccted under the supervision of the quarter- master general, in separate compartments,etc., 80 as to be made as absolutely fire proof as pos- sible. The pension ofiice was now paying from 220,100 to ¢24,000 in rent for insufficient accomodations and, upon economical con- ‘ations, the committee had recommended $250,000 for a site for a butlding for the use of the Pension bureau, An addition of $75,000 nad been mace for the Pensacola navy yard.

HOUSE,—The House met at 10 o'clock in con Unbuation of Tuesday's session. Mr. Tucker demanded the previous question on the motion to concur in Senate amendment 16 to the funding bill. This is the “Kirkwood” amendment, authorizing public subscriptions for the bonds and nctes provided for in the bill. There being no quorum present a call of the House Was ordered on motion of Mr, Conger. One bundred ard twenty-five members pm. sponded cn this call—less than a quorum; and then Mr. Tucker moved to dispense with fur- ther proceedings under the call. Mr. Conger demande peas and nays. which resulted. as 15 813, So furthe proceedings wer ensed With. Mr. Tucker then yielded to Mr. McMahon, who reported back from the aypropriation commit tce the deficiency appropriation bill, and mot 10 suspend the rules 21.4 put It upon its passag reading of Une bill was not comp ck, ck, & member of the committee o} appropriations, criticised the bill, which we: cbicfly remarkable in that in which tt was deft clept. ‘The estimates for the Internal revenu DureaU Were $300,000 ID excess of Lhe amount appropriated in the bill. and the appropriation for public printing was $700,000 less Unan should bave been allowed. The attorney general had submitted an estimate of $100,000 to pay special deputy-marshais, which had not been allowed by the ccmmittee. He had hoped that the democratic party would bave seilied Its debts before it went out of power. Mr. MeMshon replied to the criticisms made upcn the bill, What part hed the democratic party 1p creating these deficienctes? Mr, Hiscock, “I supposed that the democratic party bad something to do in collecting the Tevehues of the government and tn carrying on the judicia) branch of the government.” Mr. McMahon went on to argue that the de- ficlencies ip the public printing office had been brought about through violation of law. la regard to the internal revenue appropriation, he called attention to the faci that the appro priation for the present fiscal year for that bu- Teau Was 2100,000 In excess of The estimates for the next fiscal year. In this connection be alluded to the Commiscioner of Interaal Rev enue as traveling around eile the civil service rues Of the deifghtful administration which was drawing to its inglorious close. The third objection ratced agatnst the bill was that it made bo appropriation for deputy marshals Alter the enormous sums which had been raised for the success of Garfield and the election of a republican bouse, it was rather hard that a democratic house should be asked to appropri- ate $100,000 to pay the Electioncering expense: of election marshals, This was no defictency. The services of the deputy marshals had not been appropriated for, and whether they hada night to be appropriated for was a question Which had been discussed in the past and need not now be revived. At 1 o'clock Mr. McMahon's motion was ay to, the rules were suspended, and the deficiency bill—the last of the appropriation bilis—was assed. ® The consideration of the funding bill was im- mediately resumed, the question being on or- dering the previous question on the motion to cencur In Senate amendment 16, ‘The large majority of the republicans re- trained from voting, but enough cast their votes to make a quorum, and the main question was ordered—yeas 134, nays 25. The republi- cans voting were Messrs. Anderson, Belford, Boyd, Browne, Cannon, Dunnell, Davis (Cal.), Haskell, Hawk, Hawley, Keliey, Killiger, Marsh, Neal. Orth, Page, Ryan (Ken.), Robinson, and Washburn. ‘The question then recurred on Soneurting in the amendment, and on a division the repubil cans refrained from voting, which left the House without a quorum. After further celay the sixteenth amendment Was concurred in—yeas 146, Days 16. Hepubliean National Committee, TEREITCRIAL DELEGATES IN NATIONAL CONVES- TIONS. Hon.
