Mr. BEOK, (dem.) of Ky., member of the, Commit- tee on Appropriauons, addressed the committee at Jength upon the general subject of the expenditures: Of the government, in the course of which he quoted irom Mr. Dawes’ New Hampshire speech, in which he sald be was told by the President to assure the people of New Hampshire that the exninit made by him of the successful collecuon aud economical expenditures of money during the present year was anearnest one and a pledge of what it should be each year to come. The Presidenv’s words being, “Tell tue people of New Hampshire that during my administration there shall be no ascending scale of pubic expenditures, but whenever ana wherever the closest scrutiny shali disclose the possibility of cutting off a do.lar it shall be done.” Mr. Cox made a remark avout the gentieman from Massachusetts blowing hot and cold, saying one thing in the House and a diiferent thing in New Hampauire, Mr. DAWES submitted that eltber he, himself, did not know what he suid in New Hatupsture or the gentieman (Mr. Cox) did not know it; lor he had re- afirmed in New Hampshue every word he hag ut- tered im the House, he now reaiirmed every word he had saidin New Hampshire. In no word that ne had uttered in the House haa he ever said that the present administration was more extravagant than ‘the administration of Andrew Johnson. He knew that it had been attempted in a two hours’ speech (re- ferring to Mr. Butler’s speech) to maxe him say that, but nowhere had he done so. He was ready to stand by all ne had satd in either of his speeches on chav subject. ‘Ihe gentieman from New York (Mr. Cox) wanted to know how he could say one thing here and another 12 New Hampshire. What bad he said im New Hampsinre? He had said that the estimate for the nexé fiscal year made vy the bareaus, when they came to be aggregated, Were too much, alarmingly too much, ‘Those were the words he had used aud that he had takea the liberty of telling those responsible for them that they were too much, He subuitted that his iriend irom New York could fiud no syllable of What Le had uttered out of the House im that regard different from what he had uttered 10 it, ‘The fig- ures which he had used m New Hampshire were the figures covermg the actual expenditures between the 4th of March, 1569, and about the middle of Fev- ruary, 1570; and those figures which his coileague ou the committee (Mr. Beck) nad used just now cov- ered a different period—from July, 1860, to the July yet tocome. His colicague’s figures were made up Ww two items—the item of appropriations for these expenditures and tbe estimated iwem of bow much Money out of the unexpended balances might be added tothe appropriations, He had stated correctly the sum total of these two items, but they coverea adiferent period irom that covered by his (Mr. Dawes) figures, and, therefore, he could not be ar- Taigned on them for what he had said, Nobody could tell unui after July what would be the sum total ot expenditures botween July, 1869, and July, 1870. He, himseif, had taken the figures betweea March and Mared, He was as sorry a3 the gentle- man trom Kentucky (Mr. Beck) for the figures em- bodied in the pamphiet from which he had quoted. He was uot here to-day, any more thao he had been @ Month ago, to palate or to cover up anything; but the idea of how much would be necessary to be ex- pended out of the unappropriated balances was a Mere estimate not an actual lact, and it was an esti- mate made by the same bureaus taxt he had had occasion to arraign here a mouth ago. On such a matter many of these bureaus estimated on the principle that they would keep their noid on all the money appropriated tor them just as long as they could. it wag the bureaus that were responsibie, aud more than half of the heads of bureaus had been inherited by this administration trom its predecessors, He agreed With the assertion of tue genvieian trum Kentucky asto tne honesty of the present Secretary of the ‘Ireasury; but until that officer eonid divest himself of, and throw of the embartassments that sur. rounded him from the machinery and those that con- trolied it that bad come down to him from profigate administracions and profligate policies in the past, neither the Secretary of the Treasury nor any other person Whom the administration could cali to its service, however honest, or nowever clear neaded, could Gemonstrate to the country that the affairs were administered on economic principles. After jurtner discussion the commitiee then rose and the House, atjnalf-past four o'clock, adjourned until to-morrow, When nO business is to be done, vue general devate only.
