Murmurs Against the Repeal of the Franking Privilege. Arrival of Revels, the Colored Senator. Revision of the New Tariff Bill in Committee. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30, 1870, The New Tariff Bill. ‘The Tariff bill wili probably be reported to the House on Tuesday. It ts about finished and would be reported to-morrow but for the litness of General Schenck, who was anxious to revise some portion of th The bill will be reported and taken in oharge by Samuel Hooper, the second member of the committee, as General Schenck, the chairman, will immediately tura his @ttention to the revision of the Internal Revenue bill, The most importans changes tn the bill are the reductions on tea, coffee, sugars, sptces ana pig tron, and the enlargement of the free list. Toa is reduced from twenty-five to twenty cents on the pound, coffee from five to four and spices from three to five hundrod per cent ad valorem. This will leave the duty on sptoes about what it was before tho war, Pig tron tw reducea from nine to seven dollars @ ton, The committee has placed on the free list a large number of articles, chiefly the products of tropical climates, none of which can be Fatsed in this country, and all of which enter largely into our manufacturing industry. The ad valorem system, the committee ascertained, operated tnjur!- ously to our merchants. They have therefore pro- vided for its abolition, and substituted specific duties on imported goods. There was a sharp con- test on coal, the New England men joining with the rest to get free coal. The protectionists, however, “compromised on this by consenting to allow anthra- cite to be put on the free list—s concession which did not injure them, as the amount’ of anthracite imported ts very small, and cannot come tnto com- Petition with Pennsylvania, The average reduction on raw sugar is from twenty-five to thirty per cent, end proportionately on the higher Grades, The bill will meet with cohsiderable Opposition in the House, because while there is QD apparent reduction in some things the tariff list taken as a whole is advanced from thirty to forty percent. At least that is what the democratic members say of it, and the tariff men say it is the best bill they have had for years. General Logan’s Army Bill. The army officers are getting up quite @lonby to Gefeat action on General Logan’s bill to reduce the number of oMcers and to fix the pay ofthe army. The number mustered out, should the bill pass, will be quite large, and no person can tell exactly who ‘will be discharged and who retained. The reducing of the pay 1s also obnoxious to jarmy officers, and it Is sald petitions will be sent to Congress setting forth that on the present pay and allowances tne officers cannot do more than maintain themselves, and if there ts to be a reduction they will be forced to resign. The committee, however, have made up their minds to the provisions of the bill, and General Logan is determined to push it through the House on the war cry of “economy.” He is prepared to sbow that is will be a saving of several million dollars @ year to the Treasury and no detriment to the puolic service. The Air Line Railroad. At {ts meeting to-morrow the Committee on Rall- ways and Canals will resume consideration of the air line road from Washington to New York. The fret question to be settied is the right of the federal government under the constitution to go into States and construct or grant franchises for the construc- tion of public works, Several parties interested in the matter are here to go before the committee and make arguments for and against the bill, The Franking Privilege—The Other Side. ror the past few weeks Congress bas been be- sleged with petitions asking the abolition of tne franking privilege. Under the pressure of this Popular clamor the House of Representatives passed & sweeping bill, without any deliberation whatever. The House bill fixes the time to take effect July 30, 1870. There is some talk in the Senate of putting the bill through with an amendment to take effect immediately, and thus send it back to the House. The people appear to have gone into this matter blindly, and now thi | has partly become a law they seem to have suddenly discov- ered that the privilege is not so much of an abuse after all. Country newspapers have already set up @ howl The national lawmakers are already annoyed by letters on the other side of the eubject. Should the present bill pe passed the business of the government would be almost entirely suspended, as there ts no provision for Postage stamps. Some of the bureaus of the Trea- sury Department alone mall onc thousand letters a a If the law goes into effect, and no other arr ments are made for the transmission of government mall matter, the departments will drop their letters into the Post OMce withont stamps.

River. Colonel Louis Wolfley, of New Orleans, was before the Committee on Commerce of the House recently, and after giving some information regarding the month of the Mississippi river, submitted @ proposi- tion for Keeping {t open. The matter was referred to @ sub-committee, consisting of Representatives Sheldon and Sawyer. The information and propo- sition are:—The miceting of salt water tides and fresh water currents causes rapid deposits, which tne counter currents retain stationary.

The New Orleana Chamber of O erce has endorsed and calied upon the chambers of commerce of Western cities generally to endorse Wolfey’s proposition and the machines to be used, Mr. Wolfley urged upon the committee that the contract and necessary ap- Propriations should be made, whether bis offer was Accopted or not, as a few months of inaction ren- ers all past labor use!eas, owing to the obstructing Clauses above mentioned.

(Correspondence of the Omaha Herald.) WHRTSTONB AGENCY, D, 18, 1870, Since my lover of last week { hav. and talked with “Pawnee Killer” and gained the following facts concerning the massacre of # surveying party near the Repub! river some time ago:— ‘The viliage oa Killer’ — “Whetstone” was crossing ridge (immediately south of the mouth of Red Wilson creek), intending to camp on Beaver creek, ten miles distant, when they discov- ered 6 party of six white meu with s team or teams, Ach was at once made, in which three Indians were killed. ‘The whites then gained tho timber on Beaver creek, where tuey deter- mined to make oa stand, and the dians in the meantime had increased their force to near 200 warriors. Frequent and desperate charges were made on the during the entire a , and about sundown last of tl ‘was killed and scalped. ‘Pawnee Killer’ ied fight in person. He claims that the very brave and many of his warriors were wounded. The three Indians killed were buried in trees on the south side of the Republican, just above the mouth of Red Willow creek. There ocket or memo- randum book here in the hands of Indians bearing the name of Vincent F. Brown. This man was from Lincoln, Neb., and had considerable money on his person when he was Killed. There 1s also @ report among the Indians that there are twelve whites in the party end that six of them escaped. This is hardly credicable. The savages are exultant over the capture of a large amounts of ammunition ip this nt. ae cporta from the Cheyenne and Grand river agen- Cles are not favorable. Spotted Tail is endeavoring to have @ reservation yt apart for him at Butte Casha, on White river, 180 west of Fort Randall. halt breeds are working arduously to get the Hills fora reservation. This is a good thing, 1s perfectly useless to the Indians and too rich county to lie unoccupied any longer. The Black Hills are 200 miles west of Fort Randall, and are 160 miles square, and this is undouptedly the richest gold bearing country in the world. Twenty-five soldiers aro now stationed at this agency for the protection of government property. ‘Yhere are 6,000 Indians in tue vicinity. Very re- cent arrivals of Indians from the Min-nie-ka-jo and Unk pa-pe Sioux report them encamped at the mouth of Powder river. Parties from the Red River of the North had visited their ei campments and distributed presents in the shape of guns aod ammunition. From tue description of these strange people I judge them to be English or Scotch. ‘he Indians were informed by them that the “Long Knives” (Americans) intended to overrun their country wita troops in the spring and advised them to prepare themselves, offering assistance in the way of arms. ‘Ten chiefs or braves accompanied chese white men north for the purpose of holding a council, und were to have been gone two months.

Our reporter met and cunversed on yesterday with a gentleman just from the Pawnee country, from whom he a the following particulars of @nother Pawnes ri Some two weeks ago about thirty braves sallied forth ona hunting and war expedition, the former for buffalo, the istter against the Sioux Indians, a branch band of the notorious Ked Cloud, Alter a ‘week's absence @ portion of the braves returned, wellladen with game. Tho balance of the party were not heard from until Tuesday last. Our in- formant ye he was present at an interview with one of the Pawnee chiefs with Mr. James Bowmaa, of Fremont, the weil known interpreter of the latter tribe. Mr. Bowman states that the chief informed him that the scouts made a raid on the Southern Sioux, killed several of their men, aud escaped with several of their ponies. On their return to camp, about eight miles from Lone Tree station, they were overtaken by the terri- ble storm of Sunday, the 16th, and all perished within @ Ip id march of home. The bodies of the Indians, their own and the stoten atimala were found by runners sent out by the nead chief.

HIS MOVEMENTS YESTERDAY. Devotional Exeroises at Trin- ity Church. How the Multitude Be- haved. ON THE AVENUE. ‘Tho presence of the seventh child of Queen Victoria in this city suggests some singular colacidences re- lating to the figure seven; but Prince Arthur, morely a6 being indicated by the talismanio number in the royal pedigree, is not the most wonderful ciroum- Stance of bis career. Prince Artour of this day had @ counterpart in Prince Arthur of another day, and one has been and tne other ts now a valiant knight of the sword, But bis Koyal Highness adds to this achievement the ability also to subdue the female hearts of his time—certainly something that will ap- pear to the close-grained visages that sctence tells us will dominate the now creation as fabulous as those conquests which historians instruct us to re- Gard as dubious respecting the firat Arthur, Arthur Il, the seventh ohild, entered this “New Jerusalem" on the seventh day of the week in the year cignteen hundred and seven-ty. Britain is the land of the Heptarchy, of the seven Saxon kings of his own blood, and they were wise and puissant rulers; and it was about their chivalrous age that bold cavaliers set out, moved bythe spirit of the Heptateuch, toward the Old Jerusalem. To-day, however, Prince Arthur could have no voice on the Seven hills of the Evernal City, whence the colonists of his princely domain once camo; but he is now a warrior, and as he reached twenty-one and each suc- ceeding multiple of seven he will pass through the ten phases of life which scientists would say must work his transitions to the septaugenartan; but before he has completed this atiotted time he may Dave to raise his sword and empty the seven vials of his wram upun his foes. At any rate he is Arthur IL, and ts worthy to succeed Arthur I., who has lett an lterregnum of over a thousand years. GOING TO TRINITY CHURCH. Princo Arthur was at home yesterday—in the Church of England—though also tn the city of New York. He visited Trinity to hear preaching, not- withstanding he has a Brilish minister in his suite, Atanearly hour he rose, and soon afterward par- took of a rich and substantial English breakfast, and after attending to the usual morning diversions, such as reading the HeRaLp, ho entered nis car- riage with his party and drove down Broadway to the most famous of American ecclesiastical edifices, THE MORNING was as beautiful as a May day. The temperature was very mild and agreeable,'the sky was clear, colored with a deep blue, and seemed to hold over winter the mantle of a Southern summer, where the atmosphere is pure and the breezes gentile and in- vigorating. The streets and pavements were dry. The sun shone with sparkling, yet not too intense, Dbrilliancy, and the sonorous chimes rang out on the morning air. ‘There was an easygoing aud gentle quict pervading everywhere. It was the day of recreation; the day, , it r too, of di sages Leste plot oe touets, of ENTKRED HIS OPEN BAROUCHR the private dwellings had begun their outpouring toward the churches, The avenue had begun to look gay; yet to unite its lively appearance with the strange solemnity thatthe multitude feels just be- Jore submitting to a sermon, but which, strange to say, leaves with the benediction— the ecclesiastical order to drop misplaced sanctity. Whether his Royal Highness witnessed these peculiarities or not is unknown to apy bat his own mind; but as he ALONG THE THOROUGHFARE his keen countenance secmeg to express many things, which indicated, after“@l!, that princes have the same impressions as those who are not princes. Along the greatest of American thoroughfares the Prince observed many things which attracted his attention and suggested the striking contrast be- tween Broadway and Kegent street, or the Strand or Fleet or Oxford street. Arrived at the door of the church, the fore ged of the carriage alighted and passed toward the tnterlor of the church. At this moment tue organ played “GOD SAVE THR QUEEN,” and the Prince with his partv moved forward to the second pew on the leit hand side of the middle aisle, the same as occupied by the Priuce of Wales upon his visit to this country more than ten years pie His Royal Highness chose the inner end of the slip, bus whether use there were some attracti young ladies In that direction patient observation failed to disclose. Patriotic strains now poured from the vast wind instrument, THE MASSIVE CADENOES of that grandest of all English airs vibratea beneath the vast arches of the church, the congregation was thrilled, d the deep solemnity of performing a na- tional anthem under the sanction of religion, sur- rounded with its stately ceremonies, its dignified robes, 1s tapers, its vessela and its interpreters, added to the occaston ® deeper significance than it might otherwise have had and tilled every one with the feeling that the movement was timely and appro- priate. Of course, Arthur was now RIDDLED WITH DEVOURING GLANOES. Nobody could neglect to inspect Jis manly face, to take an inventory of his wardrobe, or count the hairs upon his head. He was measured ina cal ae) the ladies. They iooked at his fresh and truly English complexion. They surveyed bis side whiskers, and wondered at the latent energy of their growth. People remarked upon bis personal attractions, and {t was fast whispered that “Prince Arthur is @ right good-looking gentiem: which is very patent. His Royal Higtmess, in truth, 1s the nearest approach to the late Prince Vonsort ofany of his family, amd bas many of his distn- guished qualities of mind and heart, It should be aid thas THE CONGREGATION AT TRINITY was very well behaved, and.every one, as far aa ia known, was as decorous as could be expected under the extreme provocation. Still there was that tendency to stare, to subject the Prince to microscopic examination, and to make an ordinary mortal decompose with embarrass- ment, carried on by general consent, as a necessity of to-day’a etiquette, and the vast con- gregation seemed to be formed into a joint stock company, where it was evident that the issues of certificates had been very unequal; though those ‘Want-to-say-I-have-seen-him’ people preponder- ated. Immediately in the rear of the Prince the eyes seemed to be natied to the cranium of bigs Royal Garner and clinched on the other side, Now, if this were true in every sense besides tne metaphorical interpretation, of course it would ve a marvel, 8 miracle of nature. It would be A SINGULAR SIGHT to witness the organs of sight themselves thus put to 80 unsightly a purpose. Yet if the optica were in no case transiormed, translated and transmuted as suggested, it is assuredly diiicust to indicate where ‘they migot or might not have been. ‘There were vast Dumbers behind the Prince who held their heads in 8 perfectly rigid position, and they neither stirred them nor appreciably moved them. Now, if the eyes of these same important postures of the congregation kept up a steady fire of giances at the Prince’s scalp, it would not be strange if there were some effect. Witness—there were two fires— cros#-fires—lateral fires and fires from tne pulpit, which ir of the dangers of the endiess ones below. What a hazardous and unseemly position for Prince Arthur! Still he stood 1t bravely, afd the glances of the eyes distilled through three thousand minds, all of which at that moment wondered what the Prince thought, did not prevail against him, Aod what did he think? Few men are the keepers of other men’s faculties, or have any great share in their activity; still the assertion 1s ventured that the Prince only wished that ne was like every- body on the footstool. Surely such @ feeling must sometimes be A COMFORT TO ROYALTY. His gracious mother, the Queen, in her beautiful Gescription of her travels through Scotland, when she disguised herself and threw off tno robes of an elevated caste, disclosed with what pleasure a relief from exalted dignities and stately honors comes upon the soul, Francis Joseph, of Austria, in bis mean- derings through France under the incognito of Frankenstein, also nappily reiates an agreeable and Valuableexperience, Prince Arthur hus visited the United States with as TATELM OSTENTATION, | ous haps, as any other person of title ion ate omer fautorea the Union.

He nat in an easy and uaconstrained position and fol- lowed the services with @ouracy. THE EXERCISES began with the processional hymn sixty-four, and the morning prayer foilowed, read by the Rev.
