Ennbling Acts for Colorade and New Mexico. : TEXT OF THE OCEAN TELUGRAPH, BILL, Gewvernment Asylums for; Disabled Soldiers. WASHINGTON, Dec. 20, 1870. AfSucoess for the Presiden’ on the St. Domingo Question, Senator Morton succeeded today in getting nis 46t. Doaiingo resolution betore the Senate, and a ‘aively debate followed upen the question of referring it tote Committee on Foreign Reiations. Mr. Mor- ton, Who 18 a member of this committee, did not seem Willing to have i sent there, for the obvious reason that i would not fikely be reported to the Senate this winter. Tue vote on taking up the Ths resolution stood, yeas, 36; nays, 17. ts regarded @ test vote on the passage of the vesolton, aud Morton does not entertain any douvt now of its final success. Buckingham, of Connecticut, felt 1t his duty, m the absence of his colleague, Mr. Ferry, to oppose the resolution, and 80 he moved its reference to the Commiitee on Foreign Relations. With a view to obtaining a show of hands, Mr, Sumner catied for the yeas and nays onthe motion to refer, but the Senate ad- jonrned without taking a vote. Of course, the same vote that enabied Morton to take up the ution will enabie him to prevent i going 10 the Committee on Foreign Relattons. This Is the fight just now, for its reference to that committee would be equal to its defeat, Benator Suniner leads the opposition to the resoin- tion. He does not oppose its passage, but he wants to have it sent to his committee, He said very little himself to-day, but seemed to enjoy the manner in which Schurz, Patterson, Morrill of Vermont, Thurman and others eriticised the action of tue President i negotiating the St. Domingo treaty. To-morrow Mr. Sumner proposes to deliver an elabo- rate speech on the quesiion, and those with whom i he has ta! ay It will be very btter, Conkling will reply to Sumner and Merton will close the de+ bate. Itis the understanding that a vote will be taken on the passage of the resolution before the Senate adjourns to-morrow. Should the resolution pass the Senate to-morrow an effort will be made to putitihrough on Tiursday, so that the President can appoint the Commissioners during tne holiday recess, General Butler’s Amnesty Bill. Ben Butler’s Amnesry bill oceupicd the attention ef ahe House for the greater part of the day. Butler has the floor to-morrow, When he will demand the previous question on the passage of the bill and close the debate, The most teliing speech against ‘the bill to-day was that of Judge Bingham, of Ohte. Bingham secured aud retained the undivided atten- {fon of the House while he spoke, the republi- cans coming over in @ body to the demo- eratic side of the House, where Bingham gits,to hear him. Ben Butler was among the au- itors, but he seemed to be engaged in conjuring up 8 reply rather than listenmg to Bingham’s elo+ quence. The ingications are that Butler will pe badly defeated. He gave notice to-day thatif any of the amendments or substitutes now pending were adopted he would move io recommit the whole sub- fect to the Reconstruction Committ of course this would defeat the measure for this session, Atall events, there 1s very little prospect of any general amnesty bill being passed in either House. Consideration of American Shipping Interests, The House Committee on Commerce had under consideration to-day the subject of American ship- ping. Mr. Barney made some remarks to show that the cost of building ships was so much greater in the United States than in Scotland that nothing short of free slips would enable us to compete an the carrying trade with foreiguera. Captain Codman, whois here in the interest of New York shipowners, delivered an address before the commit- tee, in which he argued that our present navigation jaws favor the interest of foreigners to the disadvantage of Americans. He said it was & mortifying fact that of the ships engaged in foreign commerce more were sailing under the English than under the American flag, Many of those vessels were American property, though they were held in English names, manned by Eng- lish seamen, controlled by English laws, subject to English taxes, and in case of war subject to the order of the English government. Jn applying the principle of protection he drew a par- lel, showing that within the United States Where legislation could protect American skill and labor and production to the extent of absolute pro- tection, it was not done, while on the ocean, over which as the highway of the world protection conid ot be extended, American legislation practically protected foreigners in the monopoly of the carrying trade by excluding our own people from ad- vantages which were guaranteed to others, He argued against the system of subsidies, and in favor of perfect freedom in buying and building ships. He advocaten the bill which Mr. Ingersoll ttro- duced last week, to encourage shipowning and shipbuilding ja whe United States, The bill is similar to other pending proposi- tions, and provides that vessels, wherever bullt, shall te allowed American registers and all the privileges of the American flag, and shall have Uberty to engage in any legal trade, except the coasting and inland trade, and that all materials sed in the construction of vesssela which are not ‘sed in the coasting end imland wade shall be ad. mitted from abroad free of duty. Provisions of the Ocean Telegraph Bill. The folowing are the*provistons of the bill re- dating to telegraph communication between the United States and foreign countries, as to-day Agreed upon by the Commilttee of Foreign Aifairs, and which Hon.

The Secretary of State encloses numerous letters and affidavits, one of the fermer saying that the seizure looks luke a wanton and unprovoked ourage. j General Schenck Preparing to Resign His Seat in Congress. General Schenck met with the Committee on Ways and Means, of which he 1s chairman, for the last time te-day. He mformed the committee that he does not expect to be m Congress after the holl- days. The programme now is to send his name to the Senate to morrow, have him confirmed at once, im order that he may resign his in the Houseon ‘Thursday. Mr. Hooper, of Massachusetts will act as chairman of the Ways and Means Committee for the balance of the session. National Asylums for Disabled Soldicrs—Re- port of the Bonrd of Maaagers. The Board of Managers of the National Asylum for Disabled Soldiers resumed their session to-day at the office of the Surgeon General. Mr. Gunckel, as Seoretary of the Board, made his annual report, from which the following facts are taken:—The whole number of disabled sol- «aiers supported duing the year were 4,194, being an increase of 400 over last year. Of the whole, 2,101 were supported at the Central Asylum, Dayton, Oho; 719 at the Eastern Branch, Augusta, Me.; 798 at the Western Branch, Milwau- kee, Wis.; 451 at Philadelphia and 125 by outdoor ef. Of the whole, 8 lost both arms and 5 both legs, 809 each ome arm and 388 each one leg, and 5 disabled by other wounds; 113 were biind and 48 insane, and 1,667 were treated in hospl- tal, mostly for consumption, rheumatism, &c. Of the whole, 1,065 were married, diarrhoea, 2 uamarricd; 1,455 native born and 2,163 of foreign birth; 863 received pensions, out of which maby supported their families at home. All labor and service at the Asylum is done by in- mates, Last year 663 were paid, in sums varying from five dollars to twenty-five dollars per month, the sum of $67,000. Workshops are es- tablished at each asyium and last year realized $50,000, while the farms and gardens realized 000 more, Each asylum has a library and read- mg room, aud there were taken out and read last year 24,565 volumes. They receive, besides, some sixty dally newspapers, over 200 weeklies and 120 periodicals. They have also schools at each asylum, at which many disavied soldiers are prepared as school teachers, bookkeepers, clerks and tele- graph operaiors, to earn a living for themselves. About four hundred attended school last year. Amusement halls, with ten-pin alleys, billiards, bagatelie, &c., and concert halls, where musical and dvamatic entertainments are trequently given, and give ample amusement to the inmates, There are aiso chapels, with regular religious exercises at each asylum, and Christian associations, B thle classes, Sunday schools and temperance societies, 4&c. These infuences have worked a marked change in the conduct and morality of the men, so that dis- cipline has become easy and rues almost unneces- gary. The report gives the daily bill of fare for each asylum, with the diet list of each hospital, showing What the inmates are afforded all the substantials and most of the delicaeies of the markets, yet the ave- rage ration per day during the year has been only twenty-five and one-third cents per day, while the average total cost of Maintaining each man, includ- ing transportation, clothing, medicines, food, ight, fuel, salaries, and all expenses of every kind, is only one hundred and eighty-four dollars per annum— less, I is believed, than at any similar institution in the United States, ‘The report gives the States these soldiers come from as follows:—New York, 837; Pennsylvania, 729; New Jersey, 96; Onio, 555; Indiana, 296, and pro- portionate numbers from all the other States. Dur- ing the year there were 142 deaths—more than one- haif from consumption; and 891, who had recovered health or learned trades or been prepared in schools to earn their own living, were honorably dis- charged. After the transaction of the usual vusiness the Board adjourned, to held its next meeting at the Southern branch, near Hampton, Virginia, in March next. Government Accounts With the Pacific Rail- roads. ‘The Secretary of the Treasury has replied toa House resolution, recently adopted, calling for in- formation relative to the financial account between the government and the Pacific Railroads. He en- closes letters from the Union Pacific Railroad directors, the Comptroller of the Treasury and others, and also the epinton of Attorney General Akerman, After giving the points of the latter, he says that the department accepts the opinion as @ cerrect interpretation of the law in the case, He makes no recommendations, New funding Bill. ‘The following ts the full text of the bill reported to-day from the Senate Committee on Finance:— Be it enacted, &c., That the amount of bonds anthorized py the act approved July 14, 1870, en- tilled an act to authorize the refunding of the national debt, to be issued, bearing five per cent interest per annum, be and the same is increased to five hundred milion dollars, and the interest of any portion of the bends issued under said act or this act may be made payable quarter yearly. Duties on Merchandise in Bond. Section twenty-one of the Tari! act of July 14, 1870, provides tnat:— On eranges, lemons, &c., there shall be allowance for decay on the voyage, unless the loss shall exceed twenty-five per cent of the quantity, and then the allowance shall be only for the damage over twenty- five per cent. The same section of the law also provides that so much of section fifty-nine of the act of March 2, 1799, as authorizes certain allowances for leakage and breakage on imported wines and liquors, is thereby repealed, and only actual breakage and leakage shall be allowed after the act goes Into effect. The question arises whether these pro- visions of law are applicable to merchandise of that character rematuing in public store or bonaed warehouse on the 1st of January next, om which the duties have not been fully paid, or only to such merchandise arriving after that date. The Treas decides that it applies equally to both cases and classes of goods, and that entries of such merchan- dise remaining in bond on the ist of January must be reliquidated according te the provisions of the taw ubove recited, | H Executive Neminations. | The folowing nominations were sent to the Senate if to-day:— | Robert §. Clinton, of the District of Colummia, to | be Consul at Clifton, Canada; Jasper Smith, of the District of Coimbia, to be msul at Funchal; | fhomas P. Purnell, to be United States Marshal tor the Western district of Tex as. ‘The two first-named gentlemen have for a number of years held important positions in the State De- partment in this city. The Haytien Representative. An impression generally prevails that the Minister from Haytt is a colored man, but Geueral Preston Is represented by his friends to be a native of Jamaica and of pure Engst parentage, Euabling Acts tor Colorado and New Mexico. The House Committee on Territories at their meet ing to-day discussed the question of reporting enabling acts to allow the people of Colerado and New Mexico to form State governments. The com. Mittee 1s im possession OF 4 large number ef facts and figures going to prove that both these Terri- tories are in a condition to entitle them to admis ‘Bited | sion into the Union. Weea the ma WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1870.—TRIPLE SHEE}, A REPUBLICAN ROW. The Tithee County General Committee in Sex ®tn—A Fancy Scrimmage—The Manly Art Resorted to— First Block for Seckey Worth—First Knock Down for Somebody Unknown— Chairs in the Air. ‘The Kings County General Committee, met last night at their rooms in Washington street, and wound up their proceedings in afree Nght. It was @ general “knock down and drag ont,” the chairs being used by some ef the members as weapons. The reporters were compelled to take refuge in a litile cuter roam in order to eseape broken heads, THIS LITTLE UNPLEASANTNESS has been brewing for seme time past, and last night being the last meeting of the committee, some of the members thenght they would improve the op+ portunity of setthng their differences by resorting to their muscle. ‘The first business which came up was a report of the committee appointed to reorganize the Ninth Ward Association. Mr. Fisher ati pted to sup- port the report in a short speech; but he was inter- rupted by Mr. Davenport and others, who shouted to him to “shut up’; “YOU'RE A BEAT anda dead one at that.’ Mr. Fisher replied in terms equaily compiimentary. In this round no blocd was drawn. ‘The report was laid on the table. ‘There was 2 motion to change two of tne in- Spectors of electton im the Sixteenth ward, This ward is represented i the minittee by Jacob Worth, who occupied the seat of John Raber in the Assembly in 1368, Two of the imspectors itwas said, were not sound republicans, and, in Justice to the republicans of the ward, Mr. Fisher thought the committee should remove tiem and ap- point substitutes, Mr. GronGk C. BeNNerr, chairman, ruled the sub- Ject out of order. Mr. Jacos Wort opposed the matter, and ate tempted to explain the aifairs of the the ward and the motives which led to the ovjection to these men. ‘olone] CHARLES MORTON, seconded Webster, appealed from the de und claimed ¢ THE INTERESTS OF THE PARTY demanded a settlement of the question. The ques- tion as to whether the general committee had power to remove these men had caused a great deal of trouble. Mr. WorrH called Mr, Morten to order for stating what was not true, Mr. Morron—What J state ts true. Mr. Worri—I repeat that it is not true, and I defy the gentleman to prove it. Mr, Morrox—If you say so again TP knock you down, Mr. Wortu—The h—I you will ! try it! Mr. MORTON, Without any more ado, rushed at Mr, Worth and PLAN by F. D. sion of the Chair You had better oD IIS BUNCH OF FIVES between Mr. Worth’s eyes, causing them to turn purple. Worth returned the blow and countered on Mr. Morton’s pose. ‘Then the men clinched and STRUGG! FOR THE FALL; but the crowd abcut them was too compact and they couid not get down, About this time some of the other members took a hand in, while others jumped upon the benches or fled from the room. Two chairs were hurled by some one among the crowd, the police were called for and the scene was one of wild confusion. One man who did not belong to the committee, but who had just dropped in, was KNOCKED DOWN WITH A CHAIR and severely injured, and while Morton and Worth were struggling together to settle the question some one turned off the gas, and the row broke up.
