Batler’s Defence of the Administration—Has- tity ot Members to Butler. General Butler's onslaught on Mr. Dawes to-day is the talk of the town. Ben has been waiting a long while to get in his little speech and chafing at de- lays and disappointments, His speech was care- fuily prepared and printed. Is eect enerally Tegarded as disastrous to the chairman of the Appid- Priations Committee and a complete vin- ication of President Grant. When Grant “bottled up” Benjamin he little expected tat the hero of Fort Fisher would become nis ablest cha) ion in an emergency. Butler's de- fence of the administration is believed to be prompted by policy, He wishes to be looked up to ee BUTTS ‘Of the powerd that borand 1 de. monstrat? the nobility of returning good for evil for & purpose. Ben 1s decidedly looming up as tne grebt republican leader in Congress spite ot all the hostility and jealousy of nis rivals, The later heartily hate Ben, and the bulk of the party feei about the same; but, nolens volens, they are obliged to follow ms tead, It fs @ remarkable instance of the power of ihexhaustavle mentat resources, ‘The feeling of dislike to Butter was strongly sani- fested winth Dawes rose to make iis reply, Every emocratic member hurried over to near Dawes, and aii his republican colleagues gathered around hum, Profound silence reigned, so profound in- ueed (hat you could hear apin drop. When Dawes concluded they all, without exception, republicans and democrats, seized his hands and congratulated him warmly, Not a single member acted in this way toward Butler. The Goid Pool Investigation—Scathing Syrup for Corbin. Several days ago the Committee on Banking and Currency received a letter from A. B. Corbin giving excuses why he neglected their summons. Another letter was read at the mevting to-day, in which Corvin repeated that a chronic disease prevented to be bim from being pregent, buy not giving faire action in my = promise —_ of “his tiiat directigh. Tue chairman of the commitiee (Mr, Garfield) read the letter in an assumed solemn. manner, causing much diversion by his preacher- like tone and emphasis. Representative Cox sug- gested that in view of Corbin’s reportea physical infirmities the chairman send hima bottle of Mr. Mungen’s soothing syrup, in order to enable him to appear before the commitice. It is probable that the commitiee will send an attachment after Corbin, Proceedings of House Committees erfecting Reconstruction. The Committees on the Judiciary, indian Affairs and Appropriations held sessions to-day, considering & mass of business before tnem. Now that the case of Virginia has been decided, the question of the ad- mission of the remalning three unrepresented States will be taken up immediately. Mississippi and Texas, 1t is considered, will come in with littie delay. The case of Georgia will be more tully ventilated. State indebtedness to the Federal Govern- ment. Secretary Cox to-day sent to Senator Sherman the draft of a bill providing for reimbursing the United States for money disbursed on account of interest talling due on bonds heid in trust by States which talled to pay the Interest on their securities as it be- came due, ana for retaining and applying so much of the moneys due trom the United States as will be necessary to satisfy the principal and interest on such bonds as are due and unpaid.

He wou'd support the proposition to ex- tend panking taciities to the Souta and West, be- dieving it to demaided by the immediate neces- Sines of those sections. He also favored the pro- visions for the establisament of banks on gold basis, and thought these would eventually supersede the preseut national banks. lie had recently mtroduced a resolution instrucung the Fiuauce Committee to inquire mto the expe- dieney of compelling the banks to retain the interest paid then seg@-annually unt! it suali reach the amount of the reserve required under the present Jaw to be kept in legal tenders, said reserve of gold to b€ used us a BUbStILUte Jor said legal tenders. By @ policy like this the banks would ve in a condition to return to specie payment when the government 80 ordered, In the event of a contrary policy being pursued the banks might, upon the resumption of Specie payinent, preseat their legal tenders and de- mand from the voverument payment for them in gold. He had also introduced a bill for the gradual junding of the debt, which he would discuss at the proper tine, Mr. SUMNER, (rep.) Of Mass,, sald a simple redistri- bution of the exising currency could not be made without serious Consequences to the business of the country, while it would do nothimg for tinancial reconstruction, Nor was it easy Lo;see how any Yowsiribution could be made which, though just to-day, would not be unjust to-merrow, In 1861, When the national securities had received a terrible shock, whe banks of New York, Philadelphia and bosiou furnished the means by walcn our forces were organized agaist rebellion, one hundred and Oity mien Of dollars in gold being advanced by tueu, of wich Bity miliious were subsequent: subscribed by the peopie. Not trom the Sout hor from the West did succor come at that time, and he was uot, he said, now disposed to do any unjustice to the banks oi the North ana East. ‘The prominent features of the bill were—frst, to entarge the neliona: bank curreney; secondly, to create a system of free bunking, founded on coin notes, leav- lug out of view tne questions of refunding and con- solidating the national debt, and the great question of specie payment. The first proposition would be unjust to bie North and East and inadequate to the doutn ana W. ‘The second proposition would create # third Kind ot currency and a new class of bunks.

He must do it py increas ng the boaded debt. Mr. Sher- mau suggested that if @ more thorough measure than that recommended by tue comimitvee was de- inanded by the Seuator from Massachusetts he would ask nia to come forward and help to carry out the existing law; for it Was only by violation of law thas tus unequal distribution of ine currency nad occurred, resulung most exclusively in the bevetic Ol that Senator’s constituents, That Senator asked, why withdraw the three per cent certificates’ He (Mr, Saerman) would teil him why it was—because the government Was how paying to the Senators’ constiuents Ubree per cent mmterest on United Sigres currency. Sue forty-five million ddilars noW pro- vided tor, he thought, wouid be enough for the South and West, in view of ibe fact that banks could not now be established as readily eb Was the case afew yearsago, and the protits of banking were not as large as during tse War.

New England, with one Lenin of the population of the couatry, would stiJ have under the bill nearly one-third of the cir. culstion. This bill did not propose to take one doi- lar of circulation from that seetion. Ar. CoNKLING, (rep.) of N. stated his under- standing of the basis upon which the amounts of currency allotted to New york was regulated, claiu- ing that If there had been no departure trom the Jaw ube State would have been entitled to about Li- teen dollars per inhabitant, whereas tae existing rauo in that state was sixwen dollars and a trac- tion, Mr. Morgon, (rep.) of Ind., gave notice of an amendment Lo substitute fifty-two millions for forty- five muliious in tue bill, as the former amount would have to be provided to msure the latter amount of act ‘culation, He proposed to substitute for a portion oi the bill two sections from the bill pasved by the Senate last spring for a redistrivation ol the currency, 80 amending them as to take from the Staves having an excess but thirteen milion, if Gils amount sali be demanded aicer the fity-two miliituss bave been extausted. This would make ube additional volume sixty-five miiltons altogether, Whico he thought would be suilicieot for tue wants of the West and Sout. Mr. MORRILL, Ol ie., ilustrated the circumstances attending the merease in the volume of circutating noes in Engiand. ‘ihe distribution of one hundred und fifty milioas of the circulation had been based upon resources, tie other hundred aud fifty mitiions upon population. Ar. WARNER, (rep.) of Ala., advocated the prompt redisiribution of tbe volume of circulating notes autoorized by law a8 a measure of justice and one which the becessicies of the South and West for banking facilities demanded.

Mr. Woop, (dem.) of N, Y., asked leave to offer a resolution calling on the Postmaster General to state by what authority he had furnished to the pos masters throughout the country blank forms of peti- tons against tne franking privilege, and the cost of having the saine prinied, &c. Messrs. Davis and Press objected. Mr. Woop gave notice that he would offer the reso- tution on Monday. Mr. CHURCHILL, (rep.) of N. Y., offered a resolution calling for formation as to the extension of the public works at Oswego, N. Y., necessary for the brotection of the commerce of that port. Mr. Van TRUMP, (dem.) of Ohio, offered a resoin- tion calling on the Secretary of the Treasury for a Statement as Ww the interest paid by the government on the bonds of the Union and Central Pacific Rail- road cowpanies, as to government freignt trans- ported on those roads, as to why those bonds are omitted tn the oficial periodical statements of the public debt, and as to the stock of those companies; Wich was adopted, Mr. Hay, (rep.) of Ill. offered a resolution direct- nes and Mining to investi- ing the Commitiee on wale the causes of the Avondale Mine disaster, and veport whether Congress has power, uader the cou- stitution, to legisiate sv as to prevent such occur. | rences In the future; which was adopter, Mr. Cox, (dem.) of N.

Mr. Dawes, (rep.) of Mass., declared it to be nis Opinion toat the toree New England Navy Yurds mixbt be cousolidated in one, and at New London, that would swallow up tne Charlestown and Portsmouth Navy Yards, aud perhaps aiso the Brovklyn Navy Yard. With the great burden of public debt, with the cur- rengy deranged, with industry paralyzed in every department, he caied upon the House to pause and see whether some changé of pulicy might uot resuit iu the redacuon of the large expenaiture coniem- plated by the bill. That Was bis opposition to the bul There was no need of tuls preparatory pill. Four words in an appropriation olli when the time came would be enough, aud he predicted that those words would be added in the Senate to the Navy Appropriation bill Under these circumsianees, and with the eyes of the country upon them, hoiding thai to their pisses that they would expend no anoney unnecessarily in the aumuinistration of the governinent, he called upon them to wait till the question Was settied whether in the future the work of ine navy was to be done in private yards before they would jaunch out on this expenditure. Mr. Woopwakp, (dem.) of Pa., having five minutes allowed him, endorsed the views of we arguipent that of the Philadel. phia Navy Yard was to make room for the commerce of the he remarked that he had read im the papers other day that the commerce of Philadelphia last month had dwindied down to $60,000, and he thor that there was coast surface enough along the are tO accommodate We present commerce of Philadelphia and all the com- merce that Philadelphia was likely to acquire. ‘The bill, on motion of Mr. DAWES, was laid on the tabie—yeas $4, nays 67.

Mr, Joss, (dem.) of Ky., asked leave to offer a resolution deciaring that the public debt should be paid strictly accordiag to the contract; that the part specified to be paid incom sould be so paid, and the part specified to be paid in currency should be paid in currency, as all other debts are paid. and Vhat any poiicy to return to specie payment while the public dept exists, or to fand the same wita the espe ae payable in coin, would be an outrage upon taxpayers of the country and direct legislanon for capital agaiust labor, Objection being made the resolution was not re- ceived. THB LEGISLATIVE, EXECUTIVE AND JUDICIAL APPRO- PRIATION BILL. ‘The House then, at fiiteen minutes past two o'clock, went into Committee of tne Whole, Mr. Cessua in the chair, and ook up the Legislative, Executive and Jucicts ropriation bill, SPEECH OF GENERAL BUTLER ON GOVERNMENT EX- PENSES, Mr. BUTLER, (rep.) Of Mass., addressed the com- mittee as to Lhe expenditures of the administration, remarking that tt was a discussion of grave facts and figures which would be anything but interest- Ing, eXcept to those who desired to earn the exact condition of President Grant’s aduumistracion in regard to economy in tne expenditures of public money. In order to make no mistakes he had reduced his remarks to writing. ‘Ihe object, he satd, of the speech of Ms colleague (Mr, Dawes) Was to snow to the unthinking and un- Telloctng that the first year of President Grant's adininistration called for the appropriation of $10,082,637 tore tuan for the expenditures of the last Year of Johnsun’s administration. Because of the corraptions and extravagant expenditures of that administration the people drove 1 from power. ‘Tus was what had gone to the country, because the caretully conceaied fact that that $49,000,000, In a Jarge degree, Only appeared im the typographical errors aud biunders of a clerk in @ book of estimates which never had Lae to the country. ‘the estimates of $303,000,000 made by ‘Andrew lobuson and his secretaries were vot for what he ‘ould ry be the government, but for what General Grant should carry it on for. Of course, tae temptation of those ee a secre. taries was to make 4 show of economy by ébandon- ing ail pubiie works, and by underestimating every possible expenditure, so as to embarrass ine ia- coming administration and cause iw to bring mm a large deficiency til, upon wien the Gemocrats might found a charge Of extravagance against the republican party; but in their widest tmagination they could not have dreamed that the republican charman of the Committee on Appropriauons Rang Ae ys wilung instrament of their designs, A SUN Hh6rs Yatal Ta ToRCOoTON UE TS Lea oF Oke chairman of the tions, and a still Committee on Appropria- greater deception on the country, whether intentional or not, was m oyerlooking the = facb «that =the =~ estimates of Andrew Jobnson were based oa large unex- pended balances, the balance for the navy then beng thirty-eight midioa dollars and that for the Quartermaster’s Department of the ariay six mil- lon doliars, Those balances were now expeuded, aud substantially every dollar avauabie for tne fuvure would have to be appropriated froin the revenues. 1) Was hard ty beweve tial os colleague didypot Know tual great and determioing tact whien auswered ils attack upon tue republicad party; and it Was suil harder vo beilave thal KuoWng it 13 con- ceaied it, Had he been seduced by the tact taat lus predecessor, Mc.

As to the War Departament, the estimates for the year end- ing Jane 3¥, 1869, Were $66,000,000, aud Mf to that were added the old war debt paid it wouid bring 16 to $80,000,000, The ariny expenses for tue year ending June 0, 1870, the first year of Generai Grant, were $44,000,000, The reduction in the army expendiuures iroin the last year ol Mr. Jounsea’s to the first year of General Granws adminitration Was $12,355,v25, and the estimated reduction for the nent your was $6,119,145; aod he trusted that thac reduction would still go un. As to the Post Olice Department, bis coueague Knew that neariy $12,000,000 Of the estimuicd excess was a clerical error.

Referring in UIs COMBECLION LO the proposed aovlition of the franking privilege, he expressed is desire to see it abolished, because It Was an lpediinent and aul- sance; put Le wisued to see it avoilshed jor every- vody every Wuere, aid above ail alter the impudeaL howling of certain newspapers about the franking priviicye. He wanted to see every newspaper pay sa postage for tie use of the franking privilege 1a having te mutls loaded down with i many in oO; extravagance ¥ stances deleterious sicels, spreading advertse- ments of quack nosirams and —avortion medicines all over the Jand, When the New York Zribune paid at tie same rate Ly weight for the circuiation of 1t3 blanket sieet chat the poor man puid for lis ietter, then the abolition of the franking privilege would be nigh at han But while ali papers wicuin tue country were sen papers nearly free, ue desired a Ite modesty On tie part of editurs m demanding tue aboliaon of the Irauking privilege for over people. As io the Navy Department and his colleague's sneer at the atieinpted economy im coal, he showed that msiead ot coal tor the Bavy costing $150,000 a year Ue estimates for coal for the Lo years 163 and 1569 amounted to $90,000, As to tue Treasury Department, be pre led to show tnat the excess in the estimates was caused by the legisiation of Congrese i ordering tne erecuon of public works, such as we New York and Bo: ton Post Oilices, &¢., which made a autie against last year of over $6,000,000, Hus coli had not Seen Ht to pay iS respects parte! che State Department, perhaps because th e ence Was only $32,000; but Wat department, like all the rest, could stand vhe true test of economy in ex- penditure. The expenditure tor tie pasi year in Vat department was $94,000 less tnan in the last year of Mr. Johoson’s administration. As to the In terior Department, ne waought te could account ior $12,080,u0u of the excess OL estimutes. The expla- uation Was to be found im the fact taat now, for the first time, appropriauions were inade direcily for the Vatent Office instead of being paid out of the Patent Onlice Jund; that the Land Uitice required $32,000 additional jor land surveys, Owing to the immense Immigration, and that there was a@ difference of $11,000,000 for pensions, owing to aa unexpended bt ys BL youre —- ed AE ee earns had omitted to mention the ex- travagant estimuies for Congress, in waich there was an excess of estimates of $1,627,000, He as- sured the House that he had gone over them witn cousideravie care and with entire accuracy.

Was it wonderful that the democratic side of the House should Subscribe for one hundred and fifty thousand copws of hls speech as the best campaign document they could find tor their use¢ Why did not his coheague, if he wished to convict the administration of ex- Wwavagance, or to give it the fattniul wounds of a Iriead, be governed by its expenditures tostead of by mere estimavea made by bureau officers, and whitch they were directed to make by a law of Con- gress? Wy did he take the estimates of these bu- Teau officers to ve Laree hundred aud thirty-one mii- hou dollars, when he had in the oficial report of the Seoretary of the ‘treasury the statement that the whole expenses wouid not exceed for the year two hundred and bmety-one militon doliarsy Expendi- ture, after all, was the only test of economy.

WASHINGTON, Jan, 26, 1870, VISIT TO THK WASHINGTON NAVY YARD. Alter breakfast to-day Prince Arthur, In company with two or three members of his suite, started out for & walk and strolled through some of the streeta in what is Known as the West End, or fasnionable part of the city, until one o'clock, wien he returned to the resiGence of Mr. Thornton and bad lunch, To-day having been set apart for a visit to the Navy Yard the Prince, accompamied by Mr. ‘{ornton, Col- onel Elphivsione, Lieutenant Pickard and Ensign Fitzroy, leit the British Legation in carriages about two o'clock und arrived at tue Navy Yard about twenty minutes of three. Adinival Dahlgren, the commandant of the yard, had made every preparation to receive the royal guest. Tho marines were drawn up av the entrance to the yard, dressed in thelr holitay attire, and everyting about the yard presented a scrupulousiy.neat and udy appear- ance. As tbe Prince’s carriage entered the gate the marines presented, the band struck up “God Save the Queen” and a salute was fired, the Prince uncovering aud bowing as the carrlage was driven up to the residence of Admiral Dahigren, Tie PriicS Tad suite Was reedlved by the Secre- vary of the Navy, Admural Porter and Admiral Dahigren, ‘The Secretary then itroduced the Prince to the members of the Senate and House Committees on Naval Aifuirs, wno had been invited to join bim in the inspection of the yard. Afterwards he was intro- duced to the offigers of the yard and of the Ma- rine corps by Adimral Dahlgren. The Admiral then started with the Prince, followed by tne naval committees und the officers of the yard, to inspect tie shops, The tour of these was duly made, the Prince appearing to take a deep interest 10 all he saw. Admiral Dahlgren, Secretary Kobeson and Admiral Porter explained to him the nature of the machinery and tie use made of it. The Prince took @ look at one or two moni- tors lying out in the river but did not express any desire to go on board them, There were no war ves- sels of note lyimg atthe yard and those that were there were not visited, There waa nothing partic- cee ee ed ularly new To the Prince in tid YUACUS shops, as fi has no doudt seen as extensive gnd complete navy yards in bis own counury. Admiral Dahigren, provavly aware of that facr, did notseek to worry his patience by going into detalls, and to- wards the close the party did nothing but walk through the shops.

About a quarter past three Aquira: Dahigren, with tue Prince, Mr. Thornton, the frince’s suite, the paval couumittees and the ofiicers of the yard, repaired to the residence of Admiral Dahigren to aitend a card reception given by Mrs. Dabigren in honor of the Prince.

An elegant colla- tion was served, while the marine band dtscoursed some choice music. A large Dumber of those pre- sent, especially the ladies, had the exquisite pleasure of being introduced to the Prince, who seemed as much at home as if he had been in Windsor Castie, The Prince expressed himeelf greatly picasea with his visit, and at halt-past four o'clock he left for the residence of Mr. Thornton.
