The New Conigress--A Long Ses- sion in Prospect. ~~ The Order Suspending the Government Sale of Arms. WASHINGTON, Jan. 25, 1871, The Income Tax Repeal—Boutwell Opposing the Reform. ‘There is a confitct of opinion between the Secre- tary of the Treasury and the Senate Finance Com- mittee on the one hand, and the Commissioner of Internul Revenue and the Committee of Ways and ‘Means on the other, about the abolition of the Mmcome tax. The Commissioner has been before the ‘Ways and Means Committee two or three times, ‘Wrging the abolition of the income tax. He has pre- sented facts and figures which, to his mind and to \ the minds of a majority of the committee, were con- | ‘Slusivein favor of the abolition of the tax on in- comes. After him came Secretary Bontwell, who wesentead an entirely different view of the case the Ways ang Means Committee, and opposed with all the argument he couid command the proposed repeal of the tax. Commissioner Pleasanten had asserted that tax, uuoder the new law, would not yield over 97,000,000 per anuam, and that it would cost nearly cll to cojlect it. Secretary Boutwell stated that estinia(ed the” fmount of revenue from ig tax At between $22,000,000 and $13,000,000, ‘even with the reauctions.“.He further stated ‘hat it would not take over $600,000 to collect the tax. That was the gist of his eyidence Delore the commitiee to-day, and the members are @talossto know whether Pieasonton or Boutwell ie the best posted on the subject, In the meantime the Senate this afternoon took up the bill to abolish She income tax, and Senator Scott, of Penn- fylvania, made a stroig speech in favor of it He took the ground that the @overnment had promised to do away yith the tax after a certain time. { proposition Was made to dispose of a large number of arms, and asked that no sale sheuld be made wnt the Prussian government could make a pro- ition to purchase the entire lot offered. The of War in reply said that the government ‘would not, under any circumstances, sell to foreign governments, The right to dispose of the arms of its own citizens had not been disputed, anv more than the right of private companies to fuifll con- tracts, and that the sale of arms should go on as be- fore the war, The Democracy Enjoyins Themsclves—A Ban- quct to Blair and Hendricks.

Regulating Rank in the Navy. ‘The bil to regulate rank in the navy is likely to meet with @ reverse in the Senate, It is asserted that the provisions of the bill as it passed the Honse are altogether in favor of the staff officers, and that the rigits of the Ime officers have been entirely ignored. At all events, the Senate Naval Committee propose to give the vill careful considera- ton before reporting it to the Senate. Nominntious by the President.

Mr, Sumner says that 80 far as he is concerned there is not a word of truth in it. fhe President states was ecen similar canards trom the same kource. Altogether the story seems to have been Manulactured for the purpose of creating a tempo- | rary sensation on a subject Just now regarded as one of the greatest importance. Argument on the Alabama Claims. + Te-morrow Mr. John A. Parker, President of the Great Western Insurance Company, will make an grgument before the House. Committee on Foreign Affaire in favor of a bill embodying the recemmen- @ations ef the President's Message on the subject of the Alabama claims, The Organization of the New Congress— Business for the First Session. The House Judiciary Committee agreed to-day to report adversely on the bill to repeal the act which provides for the organization of each new Congress on the 4th of March following ite election, This Question hag been before the committee for some time, and the action taken to-day indicates that the new Congress will convene for business on the 4th of March. How iong it will remain in segsioy is @ question about which there 1s much diver- sity of opinion. Mr. Dawes stated today ‘that he did not think it would adjourn before the last of April or the ist of May; others are of opinion that It wil) continue to the 1st of June. The Presi- Gent is understood to favor the organization of the new Congress on the 4th of March. He will hardly throw any obstacles in the way of a session sufi- ¢iently long to dispose of the St. Domingo ques- tion, The new members will be anxious to stay Jong enongh to get familiar with thetr @uties, to learn their rights and privileges end to draw two or three instalments of their annual stipend. It is not improbable that the revenue reformers will combine with the stranght-out democrats and try to get a bill through reducing the tari, as an earnest of their pufpose to carry out the principies of the platform upon which most of them were elected. Nearly all the measures Bow before Congress outside of the appropriation bills will fail for want of time. Those interested in them, sucb ae ratiroad, steamship and telegraph cable men, will do all they cau to get them brought upagain and passed by the new Congress, The prospect is that the session will run into the warm ‘weather. Bonded Merchandise—Duaties Spirits. ‘The dill reported to-day by Mr. Hooper, frem the Committee of Ways and Means, and passed by the House with the Senate amendment concurred ta, provides thet merchandise having arrived on or before the 31st day of December, 1870, and not entered or transferred to a bonded warehouse, shall be entitied.to entry as if such merchandise had been in a donde warehouse on that day, provided the importer apply therefor in writing to the Collector within thirty.days. It also provides for the entry of gin, rum and whiskey at the rate of uvo dollars, melng the pawe rate as on brandies. “fhe Deficiency Bilis. The Committee on Appropristions had the defi- on Imported ciency bills under consideration (0-day. There 1s a | general disposition in the committee to cut down the estimates to the lowest figure possible. Secre- tary Boutwel! was before the committee, explaining the reasons for the deficiencies, ané urging fatr, beral appropriations, The Postmaster General also ‘appeared before the commitye relative to the Plarmped envelope contracts. \ The Order Suspending the Sale of Arms. In regatd to the aetion of the epope pepe de he Secretary of War to suspend the salé of erd- nKnee and munitions of war, in order to gonci! the Germans, it is stated that Baron von Geroll palied HpOD ihe Kegretary of War at the time the | When burdened with er—unite in an unqualified dental of | that he | Vice President Colfax, Generat Sherman, Judge Davis, the committees on public buildings and grounds and the orators of the occasion occu- pled seats on the platform. There was largg. audience. including judges of the popreme — Coot ands members gf the | of Soper: witn thet femniles. After music by the Marine Band Senator Morrill, of Vermont, said that four years ago a little girl was employed in the Post Office at $600 a year, but she had faith that shé could do something better, Congress gave her an order to execute a statue of the laté Président Lincoln. ‘That statge and the artist were now vefore the spec- tators. Judge Davis, of the Supreme Court, then, according to the programme, proceeded slowly to unyell the statue, which was covered with the na- Uonal fag. As son as this was done the assembly broke forth in applause. Senator Trumbull, of Ilinois, in the course of his remarks, gaid that previous to the passage of the act by Congress giving to Miss Ream the execution of this work a number of persons had made stat- uettes and heads of Lincoln, and she also made a bust from sittings by Lincoln. This bere such a striking resemblance to Lincoln that Congress or- dered from hera statue of life size. After giving a brief account of the artist and her personal history and of her visit to Rome he said she succeeded in procuring a block of marble without a stain—a fitting emblem of the pure character and spotless life of him the statue is intended to represent. Although Lincoln was often seen in a happy frame of mind there were periods with him of great depression, and Melaun- choly seemed to have marked him for her own. thought Dis countenance | always had a pensive expression, and this | was what the artist had endeavored to pre- | serve in marble, Perhaps the highest com- ' pliment he could pay, as he gazed upon he statue, was the readimess to exclaim, “This is Mr. Lincoln.” Others woud Judge of the | execution of tne artist. | “Representative Cullom, of Ilmois, after saying | that, asa meimber from the former home of Mr. | Lincoln, 1t was deemed propey he should make a few remarks on this occasion, ailuded to the fact | that from the earliest history of the buman race the | werld’s heroes and benefactors have teen honored | by the erection of monuments and sculptured statues, Genius alone conld make the marble speak.

The greatest act recorded in his history was the freeing of four millions of slaves; monuments and statues will have crumbied into dust before this att 6) be forgotten. The speaker's allusion to Grant and Sherman was Joudly applauded; ‘and, in conclusion, he said ;— Let this statue be preserved in the Capitol in the name of Justice, Uniou and Liberty. General Banks commenced his remarks with the assertion that the pea whicy distinguished the Presidential course of Mr. Lincoln were greater than any which occurred since the foundation of the corer Lineelu had greater perce than hose attached to ordivary men. 1 discharged his duties with such earnestness, sincerity and success agto enroll his name with the great civil adminia- trators. The great cause of his success was the Welfare of ali men. in the very beginning of the war, at a time whev party spirit ran hugh, Lincoin was with diflicuity sn ag from making a visit to General McClellan in Maryland, by which he would have perilled hig safety, Jt was not to embarrass the Generél with imprac- Ucable suggestions, bat to give advice in relation to personal wellare. ‘I want McCicllan io succeed,” he said, “for his saccess is our success’ Lincoln had no personal animosities. Those who differed froin bim were not necessarily estranged from him. He always counted on reconciliation. 1¢ Was this quality that drew to him the hearts of all classes of the people. It was just that his figure of enduring marble should be piaced in the Capitol to remind us and our successors of the virtue, charac- ter, success and devotion to the principles which he @dvooated and defended, and died in wean Senator Patterson, of New Hawpshire, in the course of his remarks, alluded to the fact that the it Magistrate, when dead lay in this rotunda, on ie spot. where hig statue 1s how erected. Tuou- gands now, as then, assemble under this dome. Uttering the language which Lincoln uttered at the dedication of the Gettysburg Cemetery as applica- bleto the present occasion, 1t might be suid we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot ballow this monument. It 1s for us, the living rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work tat he began. No monument can increase the fame of Lincoln. It shall live after this statue shall have crumbled and mingled with the earth. We have no Pantheon; but, with patriotic pride, we decorate the Capitol with the image of the great ruler, In conclusion, he, a3 the previous speakers had done, tendered to Miss Ream his sincere con- gratulations on her success. Representative Brooks, of New York, said it waa appropriate that, in unveiling a statue like this, a democrat should be given an opportunity to express for himself and associates thelr common interest | both in the man and in tie monument—the memo- | rial of the man. He who acted 60 foremost a part as Mr. Liicoin in that portion of our history—the most exciting and most perilous, save that of our Revolutionary era—ia entitled not only to such @ me- morial as this, but to have it placed liere under the great dome of the Capitol. ‘e have no Parthenon, no Pantheon, no Vatican, no Pinakothek nor no Westminster Abbey wherein to entomb our ilius- trious men, or to erect statues to their honor.

He couid only claim & spiritual connection with Scotchmen through St. Patrick, who was reputed to have been born in Scotland. He had an intense admiration for the ploughman poet, who made Scotland as great in poetry as she had before been in philosophy or history. No critic could deprive her of the glory of Kobert Burns.

Miltoa’s “Samson Agonistes” is sald to be the purest piece of literary; sculpture in any langaage, May we not add, will equal truthfulness, that Barns’ ‘Cotter’s Saturaay Night” is the moat life-like picture of rural life that has ever yet been sketched by any literary artist? When we reflect upon the bitet but eventful life of her sweetest song writer—him of Kyle—we are asconished that he accomplished so much. “Scots wha’ ha’ wi’ Wallace bled’? will kindie an enthust- asm even in the bosom of an American agin to that produced by “Hali Columbia” or “Yaukee Doodle.” “A man’s @ mau for a’ that’? will cause his name to hive tili Time’s last echo shall cease to sound, while his sweet lines to “Mary In Heaven’’ are among the tenderest offerings that have ever been latd upon the pure and hallowed altar of affection.

The remaining toasts of “The Poets and Poetry of America,” “The Povts and Poetry of Great Britain and Ireland,’’ ‘Ihe Press,” “Sister Societies” and “rhe Lasses,” were also drunk with enthusiasm and Tesponded to with appropriate remarks. ‘the ban- quet was frequently enlivened with vocal and in- atrumental strains, and nearly all the répertowre of Ata late hear the guests dispersed, conscious of having paid due honor to the memory of Caledonta’s foremost bard, amd-eagerly looking forward te the next anniversary celebration of the Burns’ Club. Banquet of the Burns Association of Brooke lyn, E. D. About two hundred gentiemen last evening parti- cipated in the banquet furnished under the auspices of tne Burns Association of Brooklyn, E. D Mr. James ©. Eadie, president of the as: sociation, occupied the chair, and was gene- rously aided by the Rey, Drs. Porter and Carroll, who occupled seats beside him. The hall was aecorated with taste, and mottoes from the imper- ishable Peeee of the ploughnan-poet adorned the wails, The banquet itself was a showy but unsub- stantial one——a thing of beauty merely. De Witt’s Forty-seventh Regiment Band ably assisted Willie Gietisna, the piper of the New York Caledonian jul The banquet, on the whole, was a pleasant one— the “feast of reason and flow of soul” more than compensating for other and lesser pleasures, The toasts were:—fhe Genius of Burns,” “Scotland, the Land 0’ Cakes,” of the United States,” “The Queen of Grea “The once pe “America, Our Adopted Land,” “The Cit; f Brooklyn,” The Army and Navy,” “The Ciergy,’? “The Press,” “Our Sister Societies,” “The Bench and the Bar’? and “The Ladies.” “The Genius of Burns” was most eloquently re- sponded to by Dr, E. 8. Porter, of the Bedford ave- nue Reformed caurch, while “Scotland, the Land o’ Cakes,’’ was responded to by the Rev, Dr. Qar- Mr. George H, Fisher briefly responded to “The President of the United States,” and was fol- lowed by the ‘Star Spangled Banner” by the band. The other toasts were drunk with all the honors, REPUBLICAN RIPPLES, Meeting of the General Committee—Letter frem the State Central Committee.

Shipping Notes. ‘The weather experienced the past month by vessels arriv- ing from European ports by steam and sail has been un- usually severe. They report encountering gales of unpre- cedented violence from the dare of departure until the com- pletion of their voyage. Sandy Hook pilots report the gale ‘and snow storm of Monday night last as the most severe weather which has visited this coast for many years. There are at present due from Europe and elsewhere the following Some anxiety us felt for the safety of the first two vessels on this list. The Snowden bas never been to this port, and the Britannia bas proven herself a staunch craft in “many a hard gale.” It is very likely wo snail hear of the arrival of both at Bermuda, as they have no dou't run to the south- ward to get clear of the heavy gales which haye prevalied to the northward. The cold snap of the past few days has created in the shallow part of our bays large quantities of ice, which have broken away from the shores and choked the haror to such an extent that it is utterly Impossible for vessels under can- Vas to work their way through ft. Our yacht reports the lower bay equally as unnavigable as the rivers, from the hhnge masses and fields coming from Raritan and Princ Bays, making {¢ compulsory on tho part of masters of ves- sels going to and coming from sea to employ steamtugs, We have heard of no serious damage occurring therefrom. Hell Gate to-day has been obstructed by very heavy field ice, and steamers passed through with great dificulty. The Astoria ferryvoat stopped running for about two hours; after making several inoffectual attempts to cross had to return to New York. ‘The new iron bridge over West chester creek, according to the plans now completed, will be 185 feet long and 25 feet Wide between the trusses, The bridge will consist of two spans—a stationary span on the east wide 5v feet long and a raw span 185 feet long—both of which will rest on a centre Pier SB fect in diameter. The floor beams will be of solid Folled tron, weighing 70 pounds for every Sfeet. Stringers of yellow pine will be accurately fitted between the fron beAms, and to these stringers tho flooring will be securely spiked. The flooring wili be of yellow pine. 154 inches thick, of which there will be two courses iaid on jongitadinally and another diagonally. The draw pier will be constructed of seven cast iron hollow screw piles, arrauged inacircle, The piles are to be screwod into the solid ground, not less than 6 feet benpath the bed of the stream, and will then be filed , ‘with conarete. On each elt of the briage a raning 8 foet 6 inches hig wml be erected. ‘The contractors are to rec $19,804 for the entire work, which is to be completed by the ee Marine Disasters. * obw?
