WASHINGTON. Another Imbroglio Growing Out of the Dominican Treaty. SPANISH BOHEMIANS IN TROUBLE. The Charges of Corruption by the Cuban Lobby Denied. General Garfield’s Banking Bill Shelved. Trouble Imminent on the North- western Frontier. RIEL PREPARING 10 FIGHT: WasHinaton, June 8, 1870, A New Excitement in the House--The Cuban Bribery Charges Disproved=The Nevada Representative After the Spauish Bohemi- ans. A The story published in.a New York evening news- paper concerning, the Cuban lobby, and connecting the names, of certain Congressmen therewith, has Just attracted the attention of members and prommses to kick up considerable of a dustin the House, ‘To- Gay Mr. Fitch, a dashing young member from Neva- da, Whose name has been mentioned in a derogatory manner in the article referred to, arose in his place and having had the despatch read, satd:— Mr. Fitcu—in so far as the paragraph which has just been read by the Clerk intimates that I have either accepted or been tendered any bribe or gift. or: the promise of any bribe or gift, or any valuable Whatever, by Mr. N. Taylor or any other person acting as agent or fmeni of, or purporting to aet as agent or friend of the canse of Cuban independence, It ts an. unmitigated faisehood, and the author isa wicked and cowardly liar. I believe that some weeks singe @ portion of the Comiaittee 1 the Judiciary of this House was authorized by a resolution of the House to investigate charges or accusations that members of this House had been improperiy mfuenced by the Promise of Cuban bonds or of money. I eall upon the chairman ot that sub-committee, the honorable entleman from Massachusetis—Mr. Butier—to rise in his place now and state to the House and the country whether any evidence has been presenicd to that committee teading to implicate me in any discreditable manner whatever. Mr. BUTLER, of Mas:.—Mr. Speaker, I am bound to say, and it is a the same time a pleasure to say, thai there Is no evidence whatever to implicate the gentleman from Nevada—Mr. Fitch—In any lupro- er transaction in regard to Cuba, or anything cise. desire to add, further, that in my view whenever aby evidence comes before an iuvesugating com- mittee of this House which in the judgment of the committee tmplicates any member o! the House it is the duty of the committee to report the fact to the House vefore proceeding with the inves! ibe ‘That 1s the course I should aiways pursue, I repeat, there is no ev.dence implicating the gentleman frout Nevada. Mr. FiTcu—Let me further say, in reply to this or any stuiar siander with reference to this Cnban question Which may be promulgated by irresponsi- sible and disreputable persons, that I do not know Mr. N, B. ‘Taylor, and so far as 1 um aware I never met him or had auy conversation or correspondence With him upon the subject of the recoynition of Cuban indepeudence or any other subject. 1 say, further, that until after the remarks which J made tu this House in December jast, upet my Own motion in behalf of Cubun independence, I n met any mem- ber of the Cuban Junta or any person interested in organized effort to sustain the cause of Cuban independence. Afier 1 made that speech I was called upon by some gentlemen who aid me the honor to express their thinks for the few poor, unavailing words 1 have sad im belulf of that struggling peopie; but no person who called upon me, or wio las ever communicated with me since with reference vo the possibility of ob- taining aon from Congress or the administration With regard to Cuba, has ever insulved me by inti- Mating that in the event of the success of that people Tconid expect anyttang exvept uew gratitude and regard. Mr. MAYNARD—Wiil the gentleman allow me to ack him @ quesiton? Mr, Fitca—Yes, sir. M«¥NARD—itas the milemanigatiandantien - outlay wo ad colnmanication | Trom tis city, published in the New York Evening Post of the 6th Inst., on the subject to which he is now referring? Mr. FitcH—That 1s the article which I have sent to the Clerk’s desk and upon which lam now speaking. Mr. MAYNARD—My attention was drawn away at the moment when the gentleman was beginning his remarks, but] understood the article to be from the Evening Star of this city. Mr. FircH—It 1s copied by the Star of this city from the Evening Post of New York. I did not see it in the Post, Ido not take that paper, and my attention was cailed tothe matter by reading it last night in the Star, If I may be permitted to say one word in ad- dition, 1 will remark that the purpose of this Ife 1s as obvious as the lie itself is baseless. We approach, in a@ lew days, the consideration of the question Whether the House will help Spain to crush Cuba or not. jt is, perhaps, conjectured by members of the Spanish embasy that if cha of corruption on behalf of Cuba can be cir. culated with impunity and permitted to pass unnchailenged here concerning members, gentlemen on this foor may be afraid to express the kiudly sentimeuts which they may entertain for the persecuted Cubans, and at the cost of a dinner or a five dollur bill some scavenger who disgraces the reportorial fraternity 18 induced to sound the prelim- inary note of slander. I suppose we shall have the Whole pack yelping in chorus about Monday next. Ail I have to say, in conclusion, is that so far as my action is concerned, 1 should deem myself reereant Ww my oligations to my constituents and to my own manhood if I allowed the ery of a few hungry coyotes to swerve me ut any time from the utterance of words of encouragement and cheer to any people who are struggling tor civil and religious Iuberty, It is the intention of Mr. McCormick, of Missouri, and Mr. Butier, of Tennessee, whose names are also mentioned, to make explanations in the House to- morrow denouncing the statements with reference to them as false and slanderous, There is some talk of introducing a resolution expelling the author of the article from the privilege of the reporters’ gal- Jery. Trouble Imminent on the Northwestern Bor» der—Another Instance of Albion’s Perfidy— Riel Preparing to Fight. The Minnesota delegation express great appre- hensions that the course of Canada towards Louis Riel, the Red River President, will invoive the whole Northwestern territory in war. It seems that the Manitoba act more thanjconcedes Riel’s demands, with the important omission ot @ general amnesty. It is understood at St. Paul that the Red River dele- gates to Ottawa, when they passed such a provision, were told that no offences had been committed against Canada, but that the Queen’s proclamation ‘Would give Immunity to all the actors in the msur- rection. Sir Clinton Murdock, representing the home government, was present and joined in the assurance. On its faith the Red River delegates consented to the organization of the province, and the most unquallfied representations of the peaceful character of the Red River expedition were communicated to the American government by Minister Thornton. News from Fort Garry shows that Reil will raise 3,000 men and fight the troops now struggling through the wilderness beyond Lake Superior, unless a full and unqualified amnesty be proclaimed, Every day’s delay is said to make the situation more critical. It is alleged that Canada hoped to steal into the country without being forced to pledge the safety of Reiland his associates, and if tits matter shall remain in its present unsatisfactory state much longer the active interposition of the government of the United States will become neces- sary to the security of the frontiers of Minnesota, Dacotah and Montana, Senator, Ramsey’s resolu- ton calling for such mediation will soon be the sub- ject of a report from the Committee on Foreign Re- lations. General Garfield’s Banking Bill Shelved. After two days’ discussion the House practically Killed Gurfiela’s bill to secure additional banking facilities by adjourning without taking action on it. ‘This sends it to the foot of the bills on the Speaker’s tabie. Had a square vote been reached there is fittle doubt but that the bfMl would have been de- feated by a large majority. It contained some good features, but they were not numerous enough to save it, As predicted in these despatches before tt came before the House, the bill met with opposition from Representatives from all parts of the country, It sulted neither tne Hast nor the West, and was oniy ac. cepted by @ portion of the South as st resort in the hope of securing Ue more currency, The funding sections were pe NEW YUKK HERALD, THURSDAY, JUNE 9, etrnck out by the committee at the request of the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, which | is taken @s a favorable omen that Schenck’s Fund- | ing bill will find enough friends in the House to Be- cure ite passage. General Garfield even modified the bill this morning in his committee, but still it did Nol meet the approbation of the House, Another St. Domingo ImbrogliomImprisonment of an American by President Baez St. Domingo occupied the attention of the senate o-day in both open and secret session, and afforded quite @ splendid debate concermng the case of Hatch and General Babocck's alleged complicity in @scheme to keep that individual in dorance vile. In open session Senator Ferry, assiated by the lofty Sumner, succeeded in getting a special com- mittee appointed to investigate the case or Hatch aid the charges: against Babcock. Ferry and Sumner were unusually bitter in their remarks. relative to General Babcock, each deciaring that that oMcer merited nothing short of dismissal from the‘army in disgrace. “Sumner even sald worse, deciaring that-he ought to be stricken from the roll of honorable men. The paper pre- sented by Hatch is a3 follows:— The petitioncr, Davie Hateh, represents his griev- ance, arizing out of cruel treatment to which he ay been subected by President Baez, designedly with set purpose. exposing his life ana defamiug bie character by oileriug a sentence of death to ve Passed upon him, with the view of destroying his induence, aud permanently injuring his health . constitution by & reckless exposure and neglect; for all of which the petiuoner claims Abmaate from the government of Baez in the sum of $60,000, as per letter to Baez, enclosed with the petition, which the ‘Uutuoner believes Lo be jusuy due him for whathe jas suifered in person, character aud influence in beng rived of his liberty six moi ana Pub 4 he ree ag ab v8 Congress to ane fi ouside; ied BET O obtain the Siidunc of dameger olnimed bP Hit pe gq: ernment of Baeg, eytonar OP States ‘was 1 fearon Rein 0 fy rty by the army of that government in the sum 547, which he prays Congress to intercede to obtain from the government of Byez, the said Baez sull holding and exercising unlimited power by authority of Cun- gress aud solely respousibie for ine acts. The Indian Delegations. Spotied Tail and the other three of the delegation Of Slowx Indians took leave of the President to-day, and to-morrow will start on thelr return to their reservation. Red Cloud and his delegation will re- matn here a week ov ten days They will have a final interview with the President to-morrow and another with the Secretary of the Interlor and Com- missioner of Indian Affuirs in the course of three or four days. The Montana Indians. Reports to the Indian Ofice from General Sully contain accounts of @ recent conference which was heid by Captain De Camp, agent for the Crow In- dians, at their agen¢y in Montana Termtory, at which several of the leading chiefs made an earnest, request for ammunition to fight the Sioux with, as well as to hunt the buffalo, As the policy of the government, as indicated in the speech of Secretary Cox to Red Cloud yesterday, is to nave all Indians entertain peaceable relations towards each other, it may, of course, be considered certain that their re- quest Will not be allowed. Removal of the Osage Indians. Senator Pomeroy to-day succeeded in getting an amendment to the Indian Appropriation bill for the removal of the Great and Litte Osage Indians from Kansas into the Indian Territory, south of Kansas, | and the sale of their lands to actual setlers. The Osages number about three thousand four hundred persons, and thetr lands are very valuable and:magy, settiers have located there. ‘This ocedioned the re- cent order from tie War Department for. their re- moval. A treaty was made for the purchase of these lands in 1868 1n the interest of the Leavenworth, Lawrence and Galveston Railroad Company, but ‘was not confirmed by the Senate and was subse- quently withdrawn by the President. More Developments in the Management of Freedmen’s Bureau Affairs, The Wood-Howard Freedmen’s Bureaa investiga- Uon, before the Committee on Education and Labor, ) nakes slow progress. Every now and then some Startling testimony ts brought out by Fernando Wood's witnesses, There is evidence now, it is sald, toshow that Howard paid out of the bureau funds’ some $240,000 to the American Missionary So- cietys about $140,000 in: rations were sent to Florida, he rations seid and the! proceeds pocketed by the agents of the bareaty ‘The United State Marsual for South Carolina ay of the, United States Senators trom wat im to prove that about $400,000 of tne educational fund of the bureau were used for the purchase of rations, the majority of which were sold to the negroes of South Carolina, on time, for the purpose of securing the election of Governor Scott. Settlement of Internal Revenue Accounts in New York and Brooklyn. At the request of Commissioner Deiano Mr. Wil- liams, of the Internal Revenue Office, proceeds to New York and Brooxiyn this evening for the purpose of eflecting a setitement of the accounts of the several ex-collectors of those cities, Mr. Williams will also investigate the expenses attending the assessment and collection of internal revenue in the above cities with the view of seeing if the number of officials may not de reduced, the reduction to take effect on the adoption of the new Tax bill. ‘The Reported Massacre of Jews in Roumania. The President, in reply to a resolution of the Senate, says the State Department has received no oficial information concernmg tne reported perse- cutions and massacre of Jews in Roumanta. Destruction of Counterteit Plates. The Secretary of the Treasury will, in a few days, appoint a commission to superintend the destruction of all the captured counterfeit plates now in the pos- session of the Secret Service Division, amounting to several hundred. Scarcity of Seamen in The Navy—The Prac- tice Squadron. On account of the great scarcity of seamen in the navy the Secretary has been compelled to curtail the practice squadron this year, and instead of three (the usual number of vessels going out with the midshipmgn) but one will go. The Savannah will make the cruise. The midshipmen not going on the cruise will probably receive leaves of apsence until September or October. Importation of Cattle from France. Application was made recently to Secretary Bout- weil, by an eminent physician of Boston, for per- mission to import from France four hetfers for the purpose of procuring pure vaccine matter therefrom. As there are some restrictions placed by the ‘Treas- ury Department upon the importation of cattle into the United States from Europe, to prevent the intro- duction of the cattle disease which has heretofore prevailed in various parts of the Continent, the physician thought he would not be allowed to import the heifers; but the Secretary says that he does not think there is any objection to the importation, and that he will afford all proper facilities in his power to encourage so desirable an object. The President to Visit Pennsylvania. The President and family purpose leaving Wash- ington to-morrow evening for Pennsylvania at the invitation of Senator Cameron, and will return by Monday morning. Artificial Limbs for Disabled Soldiers. The Surgeon General’s office has expended $416,000 for artificial legs to disabled soldiers. The report of the Conference Committee on this subject, agreed to by the House to-day, is as follows:— Every soldier who was disabled during the war for the suppression of the rebellion, and who was furnished by the War Department with an artificial limb ov apparatus for resection shail be entitled to receive a new limb or apparatus as soon after the pi of this act asthe same can be practically furnished, and at the expiration of every five years thereafter, under such regulations as may be pre- seribed bythe Surgeon General of the army, pro- vided the soldier may, if he so elect, receive instead of satd limb or apparatus the money value thereof at the following rates—viz., for artificial legs, $75; for arms, $50;-40r feet, $50; for apparatus for resection, $50, 2, the Surgeon General shall certify to the Com. muissiSner of Pensions a list of all soldiers who have elected to receive money commutation instead of limbs, or apparatus, with the amount due to each, and the Commissioner of Pensions shall cause the same to be paid to such soldiers in the same manner as pensions are now or hereafter may be paid. 3. That every soldier who lost a limb during the Jate war, but from the nature of his injury was not able to use an artificiat limb, and consequently re- ceived none from the government, shall be entitled to the benefits of this act and shall receive commu- tation as hereinbefore provided, Nominations by tae President.

He ought . FERRY moved the reference of the matter to the Committee on Foreign Relations, with imstruc- tons to send for persons re.

He thought the great imtothke that government was that they had not executed him, Mr. Ferry said Mr, Hatch was a resident of the town in which he himself sived; that he kuew hin and would trust to his honor and integrity as quickly as he would trust the emu sie een cate the exceedingly vile language of that gentle was necessary a word should be said in defence of Mr. Hatch. He proceeded wo show that the aatnority jor the statement of Mr. Chandier would be shown to ve uniounded, Mr. SumNgeR considered the question not a per- sona! one, but as involving the graver questions of ag attempt of an army officer to negotiate a treaty of the United States, aud jor that purpose lending Himself to a machinaion to keep an American citi- zen in prison. Mr. NYB, (rep.) Of Nev., objected to the reference to the Committe on Foreign Relations, of witich Mr. Suinner wag chairman, in view of that.Senavor’s as- sertion that General Babeock should be cashiered at once, That language was unbecoming any man who was to sit as a judge upon the cuse, as It commitied him against the accused tn advance of a hearing. Mr. SUMNER said his remark implied @ con-idera- tion of al) the facts in the case. Mr. NYE moved to refer the matter to a special gotunittee of tive to be appointed by the Chair. ‘The ViCE PRESIDENT, in puiting the question, de- sired to be relieved from making the appvictment, ‘but several Senators evjected, Mr. Morton remarking that at had been invariably the custom of the Chair tu te ir, CARPENTER, (rep.) of Wis., wanted a full in- ve + ao y ee Tp ero diced the case. He thought @ fit opportunity for some investigation by the chairman oF the Com- mittee on Foreign Affairs—'the be-wil and end-all’ of that committee—into the wrongs upon American citizens in Cuba. Mr. THAYER, (rep.) of Neb., was notto be drawn Into.a crusade ka an oficer of the government upon sinister motives. He felt confident that Gen- eral would come out of the investigation and that the charges would be proved Mr. CAMERON, (rep.) of Pa., a member of the Com- mittee on Foreign Kelations, hoped that the comumut- tee would not be. charged with the investigation, as ‘they had already oonsidered the St. Domingo ques- tion in another phase. He said that while holding a position under the government he himself had been censured by his own friends in the House of Repre- sentatives for doing cercain acts; that that censure stood on record yet, and probably always would, to bis injury, notwithsianding the tnen President of the United States, 1n his sense of jusuce, sent a mes- sage to the House stating that the very acts com- piained of were done by his order and under his direction, 1t was now proposed to do the same thing With General Babco:k, who was actlug under orders of the President, That officer was one of the mildest men he had ever known, and the charge against him would doubtless be disproved, Mr. PATTERSON, (rey.) Of N. H., a member of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, claimed that. the chairman (Sumner) was the be-all and end-all of that committee, and remindea the Senator from Wisconsin (Mr. Carpenter) that each member of that commuttie? had-a judgment of his own upon every measure coming be'ore them, As to the St. Do- mingo treaty he believed they were nearly equally divided two, anit perhaps three, members being favorable toit, He protested against the injustice yntioted upon the Forelzn Commitee, * Mr. CARPENTER inquired what was the Injustice complained of. Mr. PATTERSON replied that it was the remark of Carpenter and others that the commuttce had cominitted itseif upon the Dominican treaty when the comimitiee had not uttered one word cuncern- ing it, Mr. DRAKE, (rep.) of Mo., objected to placing the investigation in the hands of tie Foreign Commit- tee as possibly ieading to a double purpose, the im- peaciment of General Babcock and defeat of the Do- muinican treaty. Mr, SUMNER defended the committee from the as- sault which, he said, had been made upon it. He sald the case was one of an American citizen swel- tering in @ tropical prison to carry out the machina- tions of an American officer. He referred to the composition of the Committee on Foreign Relatious as proof of its integrity, and intimated that the pub- lic reporis In Connection with the subject demanded attention. Mr. Scott, (rep.) of Pa., sald If information of the con«tuct of the agents of the President of the United States was needed some other means of obtaming 11 should be resorted to. Ii the Senate required fur- ther light for its guidance in ratifying the treaty it might obtain it more reaiily than by this indirect way of assailing the President. He could not agree to that part of the resolution authorizing the send- img for persons and papers, because under it the Sergeant-at-Arms might be seut to Si. Domingo for witnesses when it might be entirely useless to send anything less than a competent naval force for that purpose. Mr. TIPTON, (rep.yof Neb., took the position that when an investigation like that proposed Was asked tor by a fellow LRAaT he c Beacon at ee ‘re not cavil ag to who the exgimipatign was to be made Ri at ace and grant thé Boao Mr. THAYER inquired of Mr. Ferry whether he had ever presented his complaints against General Bab- cock to the Secretary of State or the President, Mr. Ferry replied that he had never made any complaint against General Babcock, and did not now make any. He said the facts he had siated ip ¢on- nection with Seen ay come be et inci- entally, Witle looking into 4 gasy of Qutrage upon ite rights of an Amefiéin dedaes. From vidence in his possession he believed every word of the charges to be true, and he also believed that within a wevk the Senator from Nebraska would acknow- ledge their truthfylgess, » THAYER Said his friend (Mr. Ferry) had neard only oné Sid@ of the case, and upon that had avo' his conviction that the charge was true. He (Mr. Ferry) had prejudiced the case, and was now anxious to bias the judgment of Senators. Having been sent out as a commissioner by the President, General Babcock was eae for his official acts only to the President. ‘The first duty of the Senator from Connecticut was to give the President an opportu- nity to have the acts of his commissioner investigat- ed. Why did the Senator ride over the President and bring the matter dfrectly to the Senate? Ifthe President had tailed to secure rearess after being acquainted with the facts, then the introduction of +] therefore it could never obtain bis assent. the matter in the Senate might have been proper. Had the Senator ever asked for any redress for the wrongs complained of? Mr. Ferry (interrupting) said—If the Senator (Mr. Thayer) would only be patient and wait until the committee was appointed, tf appoimted at all, all ne- cessary information would be forthcoming. He (Mr. Ferry) had uow on his desk the papers bearing upon the point suggested, but did not now desire to con- sume the time of the Senate by an elaborate expla- nation. The Senator would ascertain at the proper time tat since last December efforts had been made to obtain the reicase of Mr. Hatch, which efforts were success{ul some ume in May, and he would as- certain that there was abundant reason for the pre- sentation of the memorial of Mr. Hateh to the Sen- a His own judgment, in view of all the circum. stances, Was that the course which had been taken on presentation of the memorial to the Senate was proper and justifiable. ir, THAYER rose to reply, but yielded the floor upon a request by Mr. Howe to take @ Vote, agit Was nearly two o'clock. During the debate the morning hour expired, but the ee orders were laid aside informally by an overwhelming viva voce vote, in order to dispose of the subject, Mr. SUMNER preferred the reference toa special committee, and suggested to make the number of the committee seven, The suggestion was accepted by Mr, Ferry, when Le As eg cial committee CA aad or sider the facts set forth in tne memorial of Mr. Bavch Was adopted without a division, THE INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILD was then proceeded with, and Mr. POMBROY’S amendment for the removal of the Osage Indians Fan eared to and Varloys.othgy ane psig The VICE PRESIDENT Annouficed 48 0 mittee to investigate the imprisonment of Mr. Hatch by the Dominican government and the circumstances therewith Sonneeven Messrs.

ARTIFICIAL L1MMHS FOR DISABLED SOLDIERS, Mr. NEGLEY, frow vhe conference commmitiee on the supply of artifeval limbs to disabied soldiers, made a report, which was agreed to, QUESTTON OF PRIVILEGE, Mr. Fitcn, (rep.) of Nev., risi tO @ question of privilege, sent to the Clerk’s desk and had read an @rucie .roin the Washington Star, summarizing a recent correspondence in the New York Evening Post, tmpiicating him in the matter of the professed dis closure as to the corrupt use of the Cabin bonds, and stated that, so'far as he was concerned, it was an unmitizated falsehood and the author of it a wicked and cowardly liar, He called upon the chairman of the sub-committee which ‘had been tn- Vestigating the subject to state whetner any evi- dence had been presented tending to implicate hin im apy manner whatever, Mr. BUTLER, (fep.) of Mass,, chairman of the sub: committee, said that it was @ pleasure for him to say that there was no evidence whatever to tmpli- cate the gentleman from Nevaca in any improper transaction in relation to Cuba or anythtag else. Mr, FitcH added that he did not know and never Met the allezed agent in the trausacuon (N. B. tay- lor), and had never met or conversed with anybody connected with the Cuban Junta or with the move- Ment for Cuban independence until after he had made a speech in the House iu favor of the motion, After which he had been called upon by some gen- emen who thanked him for the words he had said, No man who had called on him had insulted him by tntimating that in the event of the success of it movement he should expect anything but their grat- itude and regard, The purpose of the lie was as ob- vious as the lic itself. In a lew days the Rouse was to act on ihe quesiion Whether or not Spain was to be heiped to crush Cuba, and it had been conjectured by members of the Spanish émb: that if such slanders could be ¢ifeulated, Such members sume gentlemen might beLafral to express their actual sentiments on the sithject. So they went to the cost of a diuner or of a five-dol- jar bill to sumebody to send out the first note of slander, He expected that the whoie pack would be yelping in chorus next Monday, So far as his own action was concerned he would deem himseif recre- ant tolis daues and his manhood if le allowed the cry of a pack of hungry coyotes to swerve him @t any time from speaking what !s tongue had to say In beiall Of a people struggling for Hberty. The House then resumed consideration of THE CURRENCY BILL. Mr. INGERSOLL, rep.) of Lil., Who Was entitled to the flour, expressed his regref that the House had lumitea the debate to-day to fifteen minutes on the Most important measure that Col gould discuss, He suggested that the hour di continue to-day and that to-morrow the debate be confined to fifeen minute speeches, Mr. DAWES, (rep.) of Mass., objected, and stated that at the session last evening, when he came inio the hall, there were pat two members present, the gentleman Who was speakiig and the genuemaa ‘who had charge of the bill (Mr. Garfield), so little in terest did members manilest. Mr. INGERSOLL then proceeded with his remarks, repiying to the arguments of Mr. Garfleid, and con- tended that it was public coniidence, uot gold aad silver, that formed the true basis of @ paper mone; He advocated an Increase of the circulating mediuin, Jaying it down #8 an axiom that the nation which used the most circulating medium was the nation wiich furnished the greatest evidence of na- tional prosperity and — progressive — civiizution. When Rome was at its height of giory and great- ness it had a gold circulating medium of $1,700,000,000, and with the failure of the Spanish gold mines began the decline of the Roman empire. He ridiculed wwe idea of the United States resuming specie payments, predicting that It would resuit in nqauonal rain and bankruptcy, It was easy for Great britain vo maintain specie payments with a circulating inedium of $40,000,000 in gold and an annual income of $14,000,000 in gold from nations whose debts she heid. He protested against resum- ing specie payments whue the country was a debtor nation and had not more than $150,000,000 or $200,000,000. He declared that the idea of specie payment was a delusion, @ cheat and a fraud, and wiways had been, and he hoped that the people of the United States would see to it that no State bank or privaie bauk should ever be organized on a specie bats, Mr. ALLISON, (rep.) of Iowa, offered an amendment reducing the proposed hew issue from ninety-live to Nity-five millions, Mr. RANDALL, (dem.) of Pa., argued that this was not the time for pressmg the bul, and said that he would move to postpone it, He explaincd and aa- vocated an ameéudment which he had offered autho- rizing an issue of three hundred millions in green- backs, aud the redemption and cancellation of an equal amount of national bank notes, with a pron- bition of apy further issue of Apyoual bank notes. He argued that the circulation of the Cee? should be ail greenbacks, and if it had specie payments He would have been reached before this time. therefore strenuously urged the adopuon, in whole, of the greenback medium, Mr. BURCHARD, (rep.) of Ill, moved to amend by inserting an additioual amendment requiring the national banks to keep, coin or ip the Treasyr coin certificates, the mntetest ie due OF ak bouds deposived in the Treasury Hi the reserve required be kept shall consist wholly of coin and oD cetililcates. ir, COBURN (ftp,), of Ind., thought that this was not the time for any radical Changes in the currency. All that Was asked Was an increase of the curren¢ so a8 to supply @ fair distribution Of It to those sec- tions of the country that are at present destitute in that respect. The distribution should be on the vasis of population. He argued that the first sec- tion of the bill did not actually increase the circula- ton $95,000,000 but only $57,000,000. ‘That was ow- ing to a peculiarity in the Banking law. He declared that no more radical measure of contraction could possibly be adopted than the pending bill, and His pro- position Was to redistribute $50,000,000 andjto reissue $44,000,000 of greenbacks in piace of the three per cent certificates now used as the reserve in the banks, ‘This wouid save the government $350,000 a year. He favored the adoption of the first section of the bill without any of the succeeding sections, nd then the increase of circulation would be only 57,000,000; and then the South and West would still have less circulation than before the war. Mr. HOTCHKISS, (rep.) Of N. Y., sald that the com- mittee had had a critical duty to perform, and he would not find fault with the mode in which that duty was performed, He was opposed, however, to the section for an issue of four and a half per cent bonds, It bad no business in @ Currency bill, and was caicultaed to antagonize with the Funding bili reported from the Committee on Ways and Means. He opposed ne sections authorizing the establishment of national banks to issue specie payment notes, regarding it as an approach to resumption. He believed tnat the currency wants of the West could not be met with- out encroaching on the East. The substance of nis views Was that the country must have a free banking system, untrammelled by restrictions and only made safe, There Was no more danger of redundant cur- rency than of redundant merchandise. All these questions were regulated by laws that were beyoad the reach of legisiation. Mr. TOWNSEND, (rep.) of Pa., could not coincide with the chairman of the Banking and Currency Committee in regard to the bill. @ was particu- larly opposed to the fifth section, requiring banks to surrender their six per cent bonds and take instead of them four and a half per cent bonds as a basis of circulation, He conceived it to be a matter of bad faith towards those effective and wonderfal institu. tions. The government owed it to good faith not to impair the obligations into which it entered seven ears ago. It could not afford to be unfaithful. hen the fonding bills were consummated the gov- ernment would go into the markets of the world and ask that its loans be taken up at a lower rate of intee rest; and with what show cowld itdo so after such an act of unfaithfulness? Mr. SMITH, (dem.) of Oregon, atened against the bill and in favor of a government currency as against the national bank currency. Mr. BURCHARD, @ member of the Banking Commit. tee, explained and advocated the amendment of. fered him to-day, and <uscussed generally the provisions of the bill. 5 Mr. WELKER, (tep.) of Ohio, moved to strike out all but the eleventh and twelith sections, communication between the | ‘| telaved to gold banking @ud that encouraged gold 3 NEW YORK CITY.
