Sharp Personal Controversy Be- tween Representatives Rous- seau and Grinnell. Wasuixatox, Feb. 6, 1866. REDEMPTION OP MUTILATED CURRENCY. A circular has just been issued from the Treasury De partment defining the rules heretofore laid down for the redemption of fractional and other United States cur Yency that has become unfit for circulation. It is ex-- pressly stated in this set of imstructions that the co- ‘operation of national banks that have been dosignate government depositories will be required in the work of redemption, save where the notes to be redeomed have been so mutilated as to be worth less than their face value, An assistant treasurer or depository of the United States is required to receive all parcels of notes which shall have been properly assorted, and being of the aggregate value of fifty dollars from the holder, and give ‘the latter either the value of the same in money or a receipt conditioned for the payment of the proceeds of ‘the parcel when returns shall have been received there- for from the Treasurer of the United Staica, The parcel must bave name of owner, amount claimed and date written thereon, The officer or bank will remit the par- cols in sums reaching one thourand dollars or its mul- ‘uple, and place upon the package the name of the party vemitting and the amount contamed therein, besides ‘writing upon the outshic ‘Forwarded under contract with Adams Express Company,” and address the same to the “Treasurer of the United States, Washington, D.

All piecing or mending of mutilated notes or currency ‘with fragments of other notes is prohibited. No national bank notes, whether mutilated or not, are redeemable by the Treasurer unless they be notes of banks in liqnida tion; Otherwise they will be redeemed only by the banks ‘that issue them. It is not desirable to send parcels of money to the Treasury by mail; but thos» who Incur the risk need not prepay postage thereov. All communica- tions by mail addressed to the United States Treasurer ‘ere free under the law. PASCAGE OF THE FREEDMEN'S BUREAU BILI. BY THE r HOUSE. ‘This wne of course lost; for Kentacky has few friends in ‘the House aside from her own delegation who could 20 go far, even when Btate interests were concerned One Kentuckian—-Mr, MeKee—proved recreant and voted against Smith’s amendment. Then the vote was taken on Thad Stevens’ radical substitute for the orivinal bill, ‘That providing homesteads and schools, &e., for the darkies was voted on and lost, Subseqnently the bil! as ft came from the Houre Committee, engineered by Mr. Eliot, of Maseachusetts, the Chairman, touing down ‘Sumner’s and Trumbull's ideas of a Freodmon’s Bureau to suit the House latitude, was passed. It differs from the original Senate bill in few partioulara The Afth eee. be to Sherman's Sea Injead pianta Vione— wae im view of the fect that the darkies General sherman provided for last January must svon be dispossessed, When they aro they will bo provided with other lands under the new bill. By it the operations of the bureau are confined to States in which the writ of habeas corpus was suspended on February 1, 1566. “ale fies are cut down and the number of clerk» and employes ‘are also cut down. If the dignity and conservatiam of the Senate will adopt this substitute it will soon be pro- sented to the President for his signature. OLAIMS OF LOYAL CITIZENS FOR FURNISHING OUR ARMIES WITH SUBSISTENCE STORRS. Senator Witley’s resolution instructing the Judiciary Committee to inquire into the expediency of allowing elaims of Joyal citizens for furnishing subsistence and ‘quartermaster * stores to our forces during the war was ‘he occasion of quite an extended and earnest « @uring the moraing hovr to-day. The mover of the tation made a short aud effective opening speech, in which be depwted the beavy cowt and hazard result. ing 10 loyal citizens residing ia the enemy's country whenever they bad thos = contrituted to the support of the federal forces, and he claimed there could be no questioning loyalty such as that when the act in itself exposed the contribu. tors to personal danger from rebels, snd ocrasioned & Jack of resource in their own domestic concerns The discussion was (hen taken up by Messrs, Wilson and Clark, the former declaring that no Teimbursing propo: sition such a* this should ever bave his vote, becauee it would open the way to an infinily of elaieas of like «har neter. Mr. Clark proposed (o back it by all the jntte- ence in his power forthe rightcousuess of the dewauds, and he gave bis Massachusetts friend to understand that it was neither honorable to hit head nor heart to be thus obdurate, Mr, Wilson's (ace had begun (o assume « ‘very roay hue, and his whole body indicated a nervous donire to retort, when discussion was sbut OF by the ex- piration of the hour. Before taking up other burinens the resolution was referred to the Committes on the Judiciary. egUeNRe's serrOR AGAINeT THE * TIONAL AMENDMENT.

His auditory in the galleries was more than ever numerous today, and was mainly composed of ladies, The speech is justly regarded by the learned Senators as one of the ‘most pedantic efforts ever put forth in the Senate, CEDING COUNTIES OF VIRGINIA TO WEST VIR- GINIA. ‘The bill ceding the counties of Berkely and Jefferson, in Virginia, to West Virginia, has succeeded the Freed. men’s bill in the deliberations of the House, The con- stitutionality of the cedure is being argued. The de- mocracy hold that the contract by which West Virginia got the two rich counties ia not valid unless ratified by the old State, THE NEW GRADE OF GENERAL. The House Military Committe to-day voted to report the Dill creating the grade of Goueral in the Army of the United States, The pay is increased over that of the Lieutenant General one hundred and thirty dollars per month, There is no increase in allowances or commuta- tions of any ‘kind. ‘ CONTROVERSY BETWEEN GENERAL ROUSSEAU AND MR. GRINNELL IN THE HOUSE. A paseage at arms between Mr. Rousseau, of Ken- tucky, and Mr. Grinnell, of Iowa, took place this after. noon. The gentlemen are bitter opponents in the House, although both are Union men. Rousseau warmly de- fended Kentucky, and his own remarks on the Freed- men’s bill against the aspersions of the wealthy Iowa farmer, whose loyalty has not been proven on a hundred bloody fieldsias Rousseau has proven his, THE CONTESTED BLECTION CASES. The House Committee on Elections to-day decided ad- versely to the claim of Mr, Voorhees, of Indiana, to the eeat contested by Mr. Washburn, of Indiana, The Brooks aud Dodge case also came up, both of the contestants appearing and arguing their claims before the comniftige. It wae significant that all the points made by Mr, Bragks in favor of his retention of the seat were ruled out. Ond of the chief of these was an endea- vor to show informal service of the notice from Mr. Dodge that he should dispute the former's occupancy. Forther evidence will be Mmimitted to-morrow, THE NIGHT SESSIONS IN THE HOUSE for debate only ‘on the President's Message, are, accord. {ng to the revolution adopted on the motion of My, Stevens, to continue until otherwise directed. It was | passed in order to afford seventy or more members an | of portunity to deliver speeches long since carefully pre- pared. But even this opportunity is not at all times em- braced. One evening last woek five or six members came together and mmediately adjourned, and to-night a representative had the slim auditory entirely to him? self for a few moments while he spoke of the barbors of Erie. Nobody else cared to coulinue the gloomy. proceedings by letting off his carefully prepared essay or speech to empty benches, It is the understanding that no business shall b> transacted at the evening sessions other than the delivery of speeches, These are all writton, and some of them read from printed slips and then inserted in the Congressimal Globe. It 1s a mistake to suppose that the proceedings are interesting beyond what is above stated. THE REPORT OF THE REVENUR COMMISSION. Secretary MeCalloch, in sending to the House to-day the report of §, §, Hayes, of the Revenue Commission, upon the property in public funds and income there- from, the dnauciat system, the creation of a sinking fund aud taxation in general, says in an accompanying Ietter that Mr. Hayes’ views are ably and clearly pre- sented; that he cannot concur in his conclustons; but it is due to thet gentleman that his report should be printed and carefully considered by Congrear, DEFROTS IN THK REVENUE LAW. It is known that many persons render thelr receipts to the officers of internal revenue on a gold basis, but pay thelr taxes on their amounte in paper, and that while bonds of railroad companies held by citizens in this country are taxed, the foreign holders of such secu- Mr, Morri!!, chairman of the Ways THE CLAIMS OF COMMODORE WINSLOW.

The United States Supreme Court has decided the case of the United States a Oue hundred and twonty-fire baskets of chainpagne, marked “¥, C,,"’ and five hundred baskets marked “@. €.," and one other case, for an sion of the revenue laws. These were cases of seia’ for alleged wadervaluation of the wmer, made by the Collector of San Frencieoo in April, 1864, The set under which the seizore was made provides that foreign wines be invoiced by the manufscturer, when intemied for importation into the United States, at the r market valve at the place of manufacture, and it js alleged that Lhe wines in question were invoiced at prices greatly telow the market value at Rheims, the place where they were manufectared, the claimants excusin: themselves erring that there was no market price at Rheims, and that the wines were accordingly invoiced at the price of mauufactors. The government responded that thie was a bad excuse and uot entitled to considera. tion; that the wines should have beea involeed at the prices to which they were sold to customers, whieh eale established a market at Roeims, The court below took that view of (he case and condemned tu? cargo, and the Supreme Court of the United Staves has now alfirmed that Judgment.
