(Laughter.) Mr. DkAKE—Or until the gentleman gets hungry for his dinner. Mr. Drake went on to say that the Senator had totally disregarded his appeal. He (Mr. Drake), however, Was not tobe “whistied down the wind” in this manner, Mr. Nye, (rep.) of Nevada, suggested smilingly that the Senator had better offer his proposition as an amendinent to the rules about to be taken up. Senators on the other side would probably make long constitutional arguments on it at all events, (Laughter.) Mr. Drake sald they might make their constitu- tional arguments. He was as much disposed to be good humored as any one when he saw occasion, but tie insisted that there was — substance this matter. Had he been in a position of responsibility on the last day of the trial he would have taken the position that the docu- meat sent there by the President of the United States purporting to be his appearance should not be re- ceived, because it was not addressed to the Senate, but to an individual who pad no place there. There was no Chief Justice in the Senate of the United SENATE. States; there never could be under the constitution.

There was aa evident purpose to ignore the constitutional characier of this body which he wished to vindicate, ‘They had eliminated every recognition of this body as a court from the rules, and yet the counsel of the accused had addressed it as a court, There was more in this than appeared on its face; it was a studied attempt Lo flout the Senate, which he wisned to check in the future. e Mr. ANTHONY could not recognize in the proposi- Several petitions were presented for the protection of industries as well as for the removal of political disability; also one from citizens of New Mexico against the threatened interference with their vested rights in lands by Briggen, Carleton and other mili- tary officers, which were appropriately referred. APPROPRIATION BILLS. Mr. Mort, (rep.) of Me., called up the Post Office Appropriation vill, which was passed as amended ‘and now goes to the House for concurrence. On moticn of Mr, MORRILL, of Me., the Army Ap- propriation bill was taken up and the amendment of the committee was agreed to. Mr. Grimes, (rep.) of Lowa, referred to a statement qm the newspapers that the appropriations in the House dilis had been largely increased by the Com- mittee on Appropriations, and said that on the con- trary every appropriation bill had been considerably decreased by that committee, and none nad been increased by the Senate, while in many cases they nt to have been.

Mr. SPRaaur, (rep.) of R. L, said he would like to see the question decided detinitely; if there were two Presidouts of the Senate, which was to be President of tue United States? It might make some diterence in his vote. (Laughter.) Mr. DRAKE had no doubt it would make a very big difference wilh the Senator, but he must remember thot the functions of the Chief Justice cease with the trial, while the President of the Senate then coms with his lead above water. There was no dificuity in determining whieh is the one, Mr. SAULSBURY, (dem.) of Del., said if it were true that the Seuator had known of some designs on tie part of Senators and of the President or his counsel in addressing (ue presiding officer as “ Mr. Chief Jus- tice,” of Which lis colleagues had no knowlege, it was due to tuem to reveal it.

Mr. BLA replied that he did not understand the armenia js oie conventions eae of Alo or Ans 01 e polic: ng off the public debt ip a although fy! yvished they had not ‘4one anything approximating to it. They had sim p\y made an unmanly exhibition of partisan fear- fulpess, He had noticed, however, that whenever thé question had come up in the House democratic ff ré had, nine out of Sn voted for every easure looking to the permet the national debt Va greenbacks, while republican members had gener- ‘ally taken the opposite side. He had, therefore, felt perfectly justi in describing it as a democratic measure, Mr. NIBLACK regarded it as an imputation on the republican party to intimate that it is not as sound on that question as the democratic party. ‘The scheme had originated with Mr. Stevens, of Pennsyl- vania, and Mr. Butler, of Massachusetts, and was, therefore, a “Simon Pure” republican measure. Mr. MUNGEN, (dem.) of Ohio, said that the gentle- man from Michigan had spoken of payment of United States bonds in greenbacks as no paves atall, and he wanted him to say whether the soldier, the sol- dier'’s widow, the farmer, the mechanic, the labdrer and the trader, who were now paid in that currency, received any pay at all. Mr. Baik replied that that was the catchword used to deceive people all over the country. He had undertaken to show that the iback has some value because it is to be paid in gold, and he mone that ought to be done directly or as soon as le. Mr. WELKER, (rep.) of Ohio, remarked that Mr. Blair had not represented correctly the position taken by the Republican State Convention of Ohio on the subject of paying the bonds in greenbacks, TITLES TO INDIAN LANDS. Mr. LAWRENCE, (rep.) of Ohio, said he would, when in order, submit to the House the following:— Resolved, That the Committee on the Judiciary be instruct- ed to inquire and report whether public lands soid under trea- ties with Indian tribes are held by a valid title, and whether such lands can be sold except in pursuance of & law duly en- acted by Congress. He remarked that during the four years prior to January, 1868, there had been sold in large tracts, to individuals and companies, under eight treaties with Indian tribes, 1,478,528 acres of lands, for $1,081,122, ‘This is destruction to the homestead policy, and he denied that lands could be sold except in pursuance of a law of Congress. He had introduced a bill to require railroad companies hereafter receiving grants of lands to sell them at a low price to actual settlers, It was the duty of Congress to siop the system by which the public lands were accumulating in the hands of a few, to be sold at enormous prices to aciual settlers; and especially to arrest this uncon- stituiional way of disposing of the public lands by treaties under which no valid title was acquired. Mr. PERHAM, (rep.) of Me., addressed the House on the nancial question generally and especially in favor of the interests of the merchant marine, adyo- cating the allowance of drawbacks on ail materials entering into the construction of vessels, and the re- moval of all other obstacles to the building und of mercantile vessels. THE UNIVERSAL NEGRO SUFFRAGE BILL. Mr. Woopwarp, (dem.) of Pa., next addressed the House, in answer chiefly to the argument of Mr. Broomall the other day on the bill to guarantee to all the States of the Union a republican form ce ment, and discussing the constitutional principles pa in the cn beet a ir, NIBLACK made a brief speech against the Freedmen’s Bureau bill, Mr. PETERS, (rep.) of Me., addressed the House in advocacy of the bill for the admission of Alabama. Mr. PAINE, (rep.) of Wis., discussed the question whether Congress was bound to make an cA a ria tion to carry out the treaty for the acquisition of the Russian American possessions. He argued that the treaty-making power was absolutely in the Presi- dent and Senate only when the treaty couid be per- formed without encroaching on the constitutional powers of Congress. THE RECENT RADICAL TRICK. Mr. WILson, (rep.) of lowa, referring to the dis- cussion which took place last Saturday on the sub- ject of his own connection with the measure de- riving the Supreme Court of appellate jurisdiction in reconstruction cases, said he could not account for the lage of the gentleman from Pennsyl- vania (Mr. Boyer) and the general course of the dis- cussion, except on the ground that that gentleman was smarting under the etfects of his inatten- tion to public business; for there certainly had been nothing in the transactions so far as he (ir. Wilson) was cocc-in:d, which could aiford any just ground for goupiaint. He went ou to state the circumstances under which the amend- ment in question had been offered, denying that he had had any conversation or bre: sizangement wita Mr. Schenck on the subject, and saying that he had prepared himseif to expiain the amendment; but that as no explanation was asked, and as he never troubled the House with unnecessary remarks he had refrained from saying anything. The gentieman from Ohio (Schenck) had then moved the previous question and the House acted on it, That was his whole connection with the matter, Mr. ELpuipGe, (dem.) of Wis., remarked that at the time the subject was introduced he had been called tothe door; that when he returned to his seat the last part of the amendment was being read; that he stepped to the Clerk’s desk to read it, but that before reading it the Speaker announced that it was agreed w The tirst tung that ied him to sup- pose there was anything remarkable in it was tie remarks made by members of the ma- jority. Even the Speaker himself had come tw him about the tiwe of adjournment and expressed his wonder that nobody had discovered What tiat measure was and objected to it. A gentie- man from Indiana had aiso said to him that le un- derstood precisely What was to be done; that if Mr, Sehenck’s proposition were allowed to come before the House Mr. Wilson (lowa) Was to offer an aimend- mentto it. [twas from such remarks that be be- came satisfied tiat the majority had arranged to adopt the measure in the manner in which it had sed. He asked the member from lowa whether there had not been sucu an understanding? Mr. WILSON said he bad nothing to disguise, He repeated that le had no interview with the gentie- man from Uhio (Schenck) as to the preparation of the amendment; nor «id tiat gentieman see it; nor as far as his (Mr. Wilson's) Knowledge went, know what it was to be. lam free to say, he continued, that [ had that amendment prepared for the purposé of putting it on to tuat bill as an additional section, Tn pursuance of that purpose | inquired of the Speaker whether there would be a morning hour that ‘Thursday, intending if such shoul be the case to move immediately on the’ expiration of the morning hour to proceed to the business on the Speaker's table, for the purpose of getting up that bill, 1 intended to make tat motion in order that | might put that amendment on the bill as an additional section. It was for ihe ex- press purpose, so far as | was concerned, of taking away the juriadiction of the Supreme Court in the cases Which are affected by that amendment of re- pealing the power which we conferred on that court ouly @ year ago. I have no disguise about that at all. ‘Tut was my purpose. How the gentieman from Ono came to move in the matier at that ume L do not know. Mr. Woopwaxp inquired whether in the legal Judgment of the gentieman from lowa the eifect of ‘the biil Was to take away the jurisdiction of the Su- preme Court in the Mecardie case? Mr. WILSON , Sir, TF think that would be its fee Woovwanp—Was it your intention in offering the amen ~—vheg take away the jurisdiction of the N—It most assuredly was, Mr. HUBBARD, of Conn.—lLiad the Other specific Intention than to reach t e case and all other cases in which the jurisdicuon Might depend on that provisiou of the statute? Mr. WILSON, in justitication of his action, 80 far as MeUardie himself was concerned, read to the House an editorial article from the Vicksbui which McCardie is editor, denouncing the Mississippi Convention and calling upon the people to resist by force wny attempt to collect taxes by authority of that Convention, He said he should be glad if the bill became a@ law before a decision in the McUardie | case, and thereby sweep that case from the docket. Mr. WoopwakD—It will not do any such thing, sir, At will accomplish no auch purpose, Mr. WiLson—Very well, then the gentleman 1s not tirt, nor is Mr, McCardie efther, And what, then, is ail this tempest in a teapot for? Mr. Woopwakp—I to the gentleman a8 a Jawyer that it is not in the power of the legislative department of the government to take away the Jurisdiction in @ case where it has already attached. Mr, WILSON replied that the Supreme Court tiself had decided that a repeal of jurisdictton even arrests a judgment. Mr. Woopwap remarked that however the gen- tleman from Iowa might have vindicated himself as to @ Very unquestionable line of conduct he stood here mainiaining that the legisiative department of the government might do the bighly indecent — | of looking into courts of jones, Ca. what were penaing in them, then using its legislative funct! to arrest and stop the course of justice, ‘That was the position in wich the gentieman placed himeelf, For himself he maintained that Congress had no it to interfere in #.wh a case.

Mr. WILSON in conclusion administered a good humored lecture to Mr. Wood and the other demo- cratic members, except Mr, Niblack and Mr, elvan for their inattention to business, or their uiness, At the close of the discussion the House at a quar- ter past five o'clock adjourned. MUSICAL REVIEW. ‘There is much weeping and gnashing of teeth among music publishers and composers on account of an adverse criticism on a certain arrangement of “La Grand Duchess,” and Bohemians refuse to be comforted because this “olla podrida” of Offenbach is considered trash. There can be no doubt, in spite of the assertions of publishers to the contrary, that those worthies deal unfairly with the unfortunate com- posers in every sense of the word. One publisher says that it is utterly impossible for him to calculate the just percentage for a composer on any one piece of music. He mentioned a greatmany obstacles in the way of arriving at a true statement of the balance sheet between him and the composer. This is all very well for the publisher, but it is abso- lutely swindling in a business point of view. No person should undertake to transact business in such @ manner without earning the contempt and indig- nation of the entire community as well as his own victims. It is easy, and any one can adopt a just course, to render the relations between publisher and composer entirely sa- tisfactory. Unfortunately those music publishers have enjoyed total immunity too long, and the Bohemian press have lauded their trashy pubii- cations and their injustice toward really meritorious compositions to the skies. The time will come, and shortly too, when composers of merit (not hum- bugs) will take the music publishing business in their own hands and crush their oppressors, W. A. Pond & Co. publish the following:— Reminiscences of ‘La Grande Duchesse,” No. 1. A. W. Berg. We have spoken of this number be- fore, but think it necessary to go into detail a little More to support our adverse opinion of it. We ad- vise the com! to look more carefully at the bass part of the ninth measure of the Bis pats pouf; the third measure on page six, which is di: ful for any one pretending to a knowledge of music, and the childish, ridiculous scale passages that follow. The composition is the veriest kind of trash, but those glaring blunders should be specially investi- gated. Consecutive fifths in this composition are so clumsily covered that every musician who has played them pronounces them to grating to every mu- sical ear. The only thing that is “‘discrectly hidden,” as the Bohemians call it, are the brains of the com- poser and writer, if either party be possessed of such inaterials, “Raindrops,” caprice. Bristow. Hereis anentirely different style of composition, one that is redolent of musiclanly, poetical, 1 passages, and, although unpretending ‘in its general character, it is worthy of the first of American composers. Hall & Son publish the following:— “I Love the Night,” vocal duet. John Daniel. Something of the Henry Russel style, nothing very striking, but nevertheless pleasing. ts Entirely “Home of My Youth,” bass song. innocent of anything attractive or novel Ditson @ Co. publish the following:— “Summer Night Dreams,” nocturne, Jennte Moss Holines. The simple little melody, which is charm- ing in itself, is varied and worked up in the most fantastic yet musicianly manner, “Not for poops comic song, Arthur Lloyd.

It is taking in its own line. “There's Music in the Dash of Waves,” song, words and music by Freligh. The words are very good, and so is the music, with the exception of the comic verses, the notes of which should not be placed in circulation, “The Lord’s Prayer,” Gabriel, arranged by Clous- ton. A very pleasing church piece, combining the most delicate and dramatic music with the sublime words of the Lord’s Prayer. “Tender and True,” song, Gaston Lyle.

Between ten and eleven o'clock last night a fire was discovered on tie second floor of No. 421 Broad- way, in the premises occupied by Maloy & Howitt, dealers in cloaks, mantillas and trimmings, The firemen were very prompt, and with one weil directed stream put out the fire.

As prepared under Dr, Radway’s new pi taining the active properties from vegetable substances (in vacuo, associated with other aaa ayy of extraordinal medicinal power, enters largely into RADWAY'’S RENO- VATING RESOLVENT. One bottle of this remedy contains more of the active curative properties of sarsaparilla than ten of the largest sized bottles sold under the name of sarsay ila in use. Sarsaparilla, although Popular with the public asa purifier of the blood, ts not consi dered a reliable remedial except as, a vehicle to convey more active agents, This is'a fact well known to medical men: and the remedies put forth as i curatives and made in the ordinary way of the common sarsapa- rill root or extract, are inert and useless in more aggravated forms of disease. The only” valuable curative principle in saraparilla is the SARSAPA- RILLIAN as prepared by Dr. lway. One ounce of the Sarsapariliian contains more medicinal power than TEN PouN DS of the sarsaparilla root as used by the makers of the advertised sarsaparilia. Let a person who has been using any of the incompatible and wasby decoctions or syrups of the advertised sarsaparillas try one bottle of Dr. Radway’s Reno- vating Resolveut. Une teaspoonful of the Resolvent Sarsa- parilifan wiil prove the creat power of this remedy and the utter weakness and uselessness of the ordinary tions made from the fnert root, If afflicted with skin diseases, pustules, tetters, black spots, worms in the flesh, roughness, pimples or sores a few tea- Tpoonulls will eradicate these blemishes and secure @ clear, smooth and beautisul skin, If Sores, Ulcers, Tumors, Cancerous or Sloughing Ulcers, me ota be Syphilold, tue’ Rewolvent te u radical cure.
