—_—_—_—— CONGRESS. Tho Paraguayan Difficulties Con- sidered in the House, Minister Washburn Sustained —Implied Cen- gure of Admirals Godon and Davis— ‘Want of Courtesy in the Navy To wards the Diplomatic Corps—A New Foreign Policy Needed. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. WASHINGTON, Jan, 6, 1871, BILLS INTRODUCED, Mr, Wurrmore, (rep.) of Texas, introduced a bill to create an additional collection district in Texas ana to make the city of Sabine Pass « port of entry, and 4 bill relating to the sur- wey of the Naches and Angelina rivérs, in Texas, ‘THE WAGIBUERN-LOPRZ DIFFIOULTY. The House resumed the consideration of the resolutions reported by the Committee on Foreign Atfaire in reference to the dispute between Minister Washburn and the late govern- ment of Paraguay. Mr. SARGENT, (rep.) of Cal., advocated the resolution and Genounced the sangulnary character of the late President Mr. Brox, (dem.) of Ky., also supported the resolution and oriticixed severely the action of Admirals Godon and Davis, Mr. Dawn, (rep.) of Mass,, regretted the necessity of vot- ing on the resosution censuring Admirals Godon and Davis, Dut said that he could not vote no without approving thelr conduct, and he could not in bis heart say that he did ap- prove it. Mr. BANKS, (rep.) of Mass,, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Adairs, said that the resolution had been drawn very miid by the committee and did not amount to a censure Onuny naval officer, ‘the language wus that these ollicers had tailed to discharge their duty. | The reason why they failed to discharge their duty was the fauit of the Navy De- partment, and it was against the policy of the department hat the Committee on Foreign Aifairs protested most soi- cunly, On that point be quoted trom the testimony of Ad- miral Porter, showing that naval ollicers may disregard the advice of United States Ministers, and not be governed by it unless they bad instructions from the Navy Department, He Ss aucun the following paragraph from Admiral Por- uNODY :— “We look upon It that a Minister is sent abroad to preserve Peace, ancnot to make war; and naval oflicers, having 90 much inteFcourse with the world, consider that they are, per- hapa as well Informed about diplomatic matters as persona who have entered upon their diplomatic duties for the tirst tame. Now in England it is different. ‘There persons are educated for the diplomatic profession, and a British naval officer, in many cases, 1s put under the orders of a Minister, Tn case we bad any dilficuity with o foreign Power the Navy artment would matruct the Admirais ut that point to oo- rticnlar case.” a ‘on to yet that the committee did not sensure Admiral Godon nor Admiral Davis, but censured the practice and policy of the Navy Department, which set itself up against the State Department, against the government of the Sountry, and assumed to hold tisel! the judge of what shoula be done for American citizens in foreign countries, Mr. MAYNARD, (rep.) of Tenn., offered an additional reso- Jution censuring Flee: Captain Kamsey ana Lieutenant Com- mander Kirkland for going to the camp of Lopez and acting with inquisitors who extorted false confessions from Bliss and Mi DM, an act in which they were guilty of a grave otfeuce, dishonoring to the American navy and the country, and for which they merit the censure of the House. He spoke in favor of the resolutions, Mr. FARNSWORTH, (rep.) of 1l)., ofiered an additional reso- Jution requesting the Secretary of” the Navy. to iuatitute ceedings, by court of inquiry or court martial, for tho trial of Admiralg ‘jodon and Davis for the offences described in the report, He said that if those ollicers had only carried out the order vf their chief, tuen these resolutions ahould not be no matter how iild they were; they should not be even mildly censured, but should be commended for Febealt ly for doing uty. Mr. WOOD, (dem.) of N. Y., referred to the whole matter as & mere controversy between individuals, and ar; that the whole trouble grew out of the vagueness and indetinive- ness of the law governing the re ions between the diplo- matic and naval oflicers of the guvernmeut. Under these ciroumsiances he did not wish the House to pass censure on either pares Af the officers of the Navy had been wrong be court martialled; Uut for the House of Repre- (6 sit asa court of inquiry and punisn naval oft cers without havibg ail testimony and facts before it was in principle rous in practice. He was ie whole suvject on the table, wMr. WILLARD, (rep.) of Vt., a member of the Committee of Foreign Affairs, argued against the resolutions of censure. He informed the House that Admirals Godon and Davis had been complimented by both the State and Navy Depart- ‘ments for the manner in which they had performed tueir duties as Admirals of the South Atiantic squadron. It had been in the power of the Committee on Foreign Atfairs to re- port resolutions censuring the Secretary of State and ihe Be- cretary of the Navy, and even the President of the United Biates, for having sanctioned the instructions under which those ollicers act. But the committee had chosen not to do that, but to make thete officers scapegouts. In his judgment the subordinate officer who obeyed iis instructions was en- titled to consiieration and to acquittal. If the instructions were wrong the censure should be visited on the superior Ollicers who issued them, Mr. BANKS repeated the remark that the resolution did not censure Adp:irais Godon and Davis, ntleman’s (Mr. Banks’) be very apt to regard it as a resol Mir. Mrrus, (rep) of Fa, another member of the Com- mittee on Foreign Affairs, said he had voted ip committee for majorty resolutions id that they did mean to censure Aami Godon. If they did not do that he should not have voted for them. He certainly should not vote for them as censuring the Navy Department for instrucyons which he had never seen. Mr. Voorness, (dem.) of Ind., said he would vote forthe resolutions because he had been iong impressed with the fact that the foreign poliey of the government was weak and con- lemptible and wished it reformed. He wanted to have some- nin to which the country could point with pride besides Kosztaattair. He did not want the navy to live forever on the fame acquired in rescuing one citizen from foreign oppression and outrage. Mr, ELDELDGR, (dem.) of Wis., opposed the resolution, and ‘said that the conclusion te had arrived at was that neither Minister Washburn nor Admirals Godon and Davis should be censured by the House. Was the House oi Repre- sentatives to be constituted a court of justice to determine on the act: those parties long after the time had passed? Af these ollicera bad violated avy law they were entitled to a Yair tnal before the proper tribuni He denounced this as the most outrageous proceeding that had ever been conceived fn any legisiative body. Mr. MUNGEN, (dem.) of Ohio, did not look upon the pro- coming ‘as a trial of those naval officers, but as a deciaration £9f pubile policy on the part of the House. He would, there- fore, vote for the resolutions. Mr. ORTH, (rep.) of Ind., closed the discussion and ap- ealed to the House to adopt the resolutions, and thereby Pindioate the honor of the government. Mr. Woop moved to lay the whoie subject on the table. ‘The House refused to Iay the resolutions on the table. Yeas pay The Tesolution offered by Mr. FARNSWORTH, directing a court of inauley tor the trial of Admirals’ Godon ai Davis, was agreed to by 90 to 28. ‘The resolution offered by Mr. MAYNARD, censuring Fleet Captain Ramsey and Liewienant Commander Kirkland, was re} ted by 66 to 69. he resolution offered by Mr. ORTH, disapproving the con- ‘duct of Rear Admiral Charles H. Davis in delaying for an ‘unreasonable time to proceed to ‘the rescue of Messrs. Bliss and Masterman ; in accepting their release in the manner ‘and under the circumstances detailed in tne testimony; in receiving, holding and treating them as prisoners, was ‘adopted.’ Yeas 100, nays The resolutions offered by Mr. BWANN, (dem.) of Md., as a substitute for those of the majority, were rejected, only 14 voting in the affirmati ‘The resolution reported by the committee declaring that Admiral Godon, lecting to aid Mr. Washburn in Teaching the government to which he was accredited, failed to discharge his duty as commander of the South Atlantic \iadron, was adopted by 89 to 39. *Avhe other majority resolutions were agreed to without a ‘division. COAST SURVEYS. Mr. Woon presented a memorial for the extension of the ‘work of the Hydrographic Ofiice, from the officers of leading ‘Insurance companies, from the citic Mail Steamship Com. , the Panama Railroad Company, the A tic Mail Biecaantp Company, the New York and Mexican Steamship Company, and a large numberjof merchants, whose commerce As all over the worid, CONSOLIDATION OF THR INDIAN TRIBES. Mr. Van Horn, (rep.) of Mo., from the Committee on Indian Affairs, reported a bill to provide for the consolida- Zion of the Indian tribes, and to ize @ system of govern- ‘ment in the Indian Territory. _Recommitted. HOMESTEADS FOR SOLDIERS. Mr. JULIAN, (rep.) of Ind., offered a resolution mstrueting the Committee on Publie Lands to inquire into the peal ‘of providing by law that every officer, soldier or sailor who perved ninety days in the war for the Union and was houor- biy discharged shall receive one hundred and sixty acres of public land as a homestead; his actual term of service to eount as part of the five years required by the Homestead act ‘of 1862. Adopted. RESOLUTION OF CENSURF. Mr. Coyne, (dem.) of Texas, asked leave to offer n reso- fution instructing the Secretary of the Navy to publish in eneral orders the resolutions’ of censure adopted to-day on dmirals Godon and Davi Mr. HOOPER, (rep.) of Masa., objected, ,. Mr. SCOFIELD offered a resolution ip regard to establishing lighthouse at Presque Isle, Erie harbor, Pennsylvania, erred. ‘The House then, at four o'clock P. M., adjourned, the aes- ‘sion of to-morrow to be for general debate only. JUDGE DOWLING’S MEMORY. Attempt to Bail a Notorious Character~He is Recognized by Judge Dowling as an id Offender, and Bail is Refused. ‘The HERALD of Wednesday last contained an pccount of the arrest of a man, who gave the name ‘of Thompson, at Niblo’s theatre, for robbing a man Of fifty dollars, after hustiing him and knocking ls jhat over his eyes. Since he has been in the Tombs several applications have been made to get him released on bail, and yesterday the effort was wenewed. The prisoner had been committed by Alderman Coman in Judge Dowling’s absence. When ‘the last application nad been made and the prisoner prought up Judge Dowling immediately recognized him as an old thief, who ten years ago was sent to the State Prison jor stealing gold chains tn Nassau Btreet, in this city. At that time he was known among the thieves as “Boston.” Since then he has ‘been twice in the.Penitentiary under sentence from the Court of General Sessions, ana only a short ‘time ago he was pardoned by Governor Hoffman. Subsequently he attended the trial of Jerry Dunn fin the murder of Logan No. 2, and, it is stated, influenced the jury against Dunn by the testimony ec gave. A3soon as he was hme up into court yester- may the Judge addi him = as ‘Boston,’ at once refused to let 80 dangerous id determined a character loose to prey upon he inhabitants of the city. ‘Take care he does not scape,” said the Judge to the warden; “if he ob- bains his freedem he wiil at once commence turther epredattons.’? Scarcely had he been sent below han anether came into the court room and in to establish what he cailed a good character, nd, apparently being in ignorance of the knowledge ne Judge possessed to the contrary, positively said e knew him to be a “most respectable man,"? ‘This pplicant seemed astonished at the length of the trate’s memory as he recalled incident after ident of we man's life, FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, WALL Sree, Fampay, Jat. 68 Mf On 'Change to-day wheat was in active demand, but holders remained firm in their prices, and only a moderate business was done. Cotton was weak and at the close a shade lower. MORE FAILURES. Telegrams from Boston announce the suspension, if not failure, of three large dry goods houses in that city. Asmall “Yankee notions” house im this city stopped payment to-day, but their assets when converted will be suficient, it 1s said, to more than meet their llabilities, The Present season 18 attended with {ts usual crop of mercantile embarrassments, and a reprehensible eifert is being made to exaggerate their effect, As compared with 1868 anu 1869 the year 1870, so far as the returns have been received, shows a much better record, The recent fatlures are the last re- maining wrecks which continued foating after the great decline in gola, but went down at last. The business of the past year, while unprofitable, has been conducted on conservative principles. Our merchants everywhere have practised economy and evserved caution in all their undertakings. The tine of great financial catastrophes seems gone by. Our people read the papers and study history. The American merchant 18, in nine cases out of ten, an erudiie gentieman, posted in Mnancial history and political economy. Statistics show that the business of the country for 1870 was about seven per cent greater than that of 1869. But profits were less and the capital invested received litle or no return, for the reason that, in addition to the dimt- nution of the margin of profit by the lower scale of prices following the decline in gold, the taxes tm- posed by the government have been excessive. Mr, Boutwell, in buying an extra hundred millions of bonds the past year, has taken just somuch from the profits of tue business enterprises of the country. There is no need of this fatal haste to pay off the public debt. The hundred millions referred to, if left witn the people, weuld double Itself in a few years, Congress must reduce the taxes to the minimum of the government's needs, otherwise industry must droop and perish. As to the failures of the past year, they are small because of the great elasticity of the country, which, de- spite its enormous burdens, possesses extraor- diaary powers of recuperation. In 1869 the total failures were 2,800 and the amount involved about $75,000,000. In 1868 the failures were 2,600, with Mabilities to the extent of $63,000,000, The record for 1870 is not as yet at hand, but tt will doubtless show less than 1,600 failures, although the amount | involved will probably exceed $50,000,000, MONEY EASIER. The money market underwent a further relaxa- tion, and while gold interest was frequently paid in the earlier part of the day large sums were offered in the afternoon at seven per cent, and to the gov- ernment dealers at six. Commercial paper was still closely scratinized, but prime double names were quoted 7a 8}, per cent. Foreign exchange was higher and closed strong on the basis of 109!; a 10954 for prime sixty days sterling and 1097 a 110 for sight bills. GOVERNMENTS STRON An advance in geld, coupled with the easier tone of the money market, rendered the government market firm, and hence the freer pur- chases of the afternoon easily advanced the prices of the entire lst. The fol- lowing were the closing street quotations:—United States currency sixes, 110 a 11044; United States sixes, 1881, registered, 110% a 11044; do. do., coupon, 110% a 110%; do, five-twenties, regis- tered, May and November, 108 a 108%%; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 108% @ 10148; do. do., 1864, do. do,, 108 a 1084¢; do. do., 1865, do. do., 1084 a 108%4; do. do., registered, January and July, 107}¢a 10734; do, do., 1865, coupon, do., 1074 8 10734; do. do., 1867, 40, do., 10734 a 10734; do. do., 1868, do. do., 1074 a 108; do. ten-forties, registered, 106% a 107; do. do., coupon, 1063¢ a 107. GOLD HIGHER—110% A 110%. The advance in foreign exchange above noted, and the reported engagement of about $400,000 specie for shipment by to-morrow’s steamer, started a more active movement in the Gold Room, and the price rose from 11034 to 110%, the latter quotation being to some extent nominal, asthe sales thereat were confined to a few small lots. The price was bid “buyer three,” however, at the close. The course of the market 1s shown In the table:— 10 A. M.. 110% 2P. M 110% 10;30 A. M. 1105 1A. M. 110% 12 M. see 110% 12:15 110% 1P. M....

The stock market was again assailed by the “bears,” who took St. Paul for their scapegoat, which they pelted down to 484%. The whole market was weakened by this sharp decline (the opening price of St. Paw having been 60) and the pressure to sell extended to the entire active lust. A great deal of stock changed hands, much to the satisfac- tion of the commission houses, After three o’clock @ reaction set in and continued during the remain- der of the afternoon, with the result of making the closing street quotations tor most of the list the highest of the day.

There was a gradual improvement in the Southern ist, under large purchases induced by the recent decline. The Alabama and Chattanooga default has tanght a lesson which will not be without ita benefit to the Southern States and to Wall street. We are ikely to see for the future a more conservative Policy im granting State aid to ratireads. If tne reckless system which bas prevailed for some years back is abolished the public will be grateful. The sensitive pride of Alabama will doubtless take refuge in some safeguard such as that adopted by South Carolina, where an article has been inserted in the State constitution which places it beyond the power of the Legislature to lend the State's credit to railways, The improvement of the Southern list did not extend to the Tennessees, which continued heavy, owing to a notice read by the Vice President of the Board, Mr. Wheelock, to the effect that the State authorities had declared their intention of not redeeming certain issues which had been im- properly placed on the market.

Some of these poor fellows have to gat up very early im the morning, and have to stand In the cold and slush all day, freezing aud thawing by turas; and now that their business Is broken up so suddenly by the intervention of the ferry passengers, who petitioned the Mayor oa the subject, great nardship will be the result among these men.

A Revoluttvoary Case Unsetiied=A& Large Ex- tate In Issue. WASHINGTON, San, 6, 1871. No, 55, Bltzabeth W. Edmonson and Others vs. Adam Bloomshtre and Others, Appeal from the Circutt Court of the Southern District of Ohio.— William Riekman, of Virginia, served as Deputy Director General, with the rank of Colonel, in the Virginia Line, a Continental establishment in the Revolutionary War, and for such service he became entitied to bounty lands in the Virginia military dis- trict of Ohio. In August, 177s, he devised all his pro- perty to lus wite, Elizabeth, and died tn 1781, without issue. In the House of Delegates of Virginta, on tie ‘29th of November, 1783, upon the petition of Mrs. Rick- man, two resolutions were passed in respect of the ciaim—one authorizing the Anditor of Public Ac- counts to settle, and allow the legal depreciation of the pay to Rickman, and issue certificates therefor | and warrants for the Interest thereon; and the other that Mrs. Rickman be allowed such a portion of land asthe rank and service of her deceased husband merited, Settloment of the accounts under the first resolution was had on the 28th of February, 1784, and the balance due to him was found to be £1,722; and, under the second, certificate was is- Sued that the widow wasentitied te the proportion of land allowed a colonei of the Continental line, who has served three years, by resolution of Assem- bay; but 1¢ does not appear to whom the certiticate was issued. Subsequently, warrant was issued from the Land Office authorizing the Surveyor to lay off 6,666 acres as the ameunt required. Mrs. Rickman married Dr, John Edmonsen in 1790, all property coming to her under her husband ’s will being setiled upon her by post nuptial agreement; and, by her Will, gatterwards made, she gave to her husband all | the land she possessed during his life, and by spe- cific devise directed that “certificates in the hands of her brother [those in question] be given to her husband to dispose of as he may think proper.’’ Mrs. Edmonson died in 1791, without issue, and in 179% Edmonson married again. In 1802 he also ated, leaving three children, and a will dividing bis ie ° his wife. One of the chilaren died before the fataer, | under age, and the otuer two are the claimants, Filzabeth having intermarried with Littlejohn Wad- dell, Waose heirs are aiso joined. Bloomshire et al. hold titie and possession under the brothers and sisters of Mrs. Rickman-Edmonsou, as heirs, and | the allegation is that the descent was not bro- Ken by her wiil; that the claim tm the will referred to certain cortificates for back pay due her deceased husband, and did not include the warrants, as to which she died Intestate.
