WASHINGTON, Jan, 22, 1972, Tike Amnesty Bill and its Amendments in the Senate—No Progress Made—Davis, of Kentucky, and the President, Between civil rights petitions at the beginning of to-day’s session and debate on the Sumner amendment to the Amnesty bill Garrett Davis man- aged to sandwich @ very unclvil attack on the Ux- ecutive, and but for the shrewd Intervention of Mr, Thurman would have brought ona debate sure to have been full of damaging inuendoes and accusa- tions against the Presiuent, but one also which 1t was felt would react on the mover and his party. ‘The Postal Teegraph dill, “Gardner Hubbard's Company,’ was reported by Mr. Ramsey and early action urged. Senator Blair wanted tife President authorized to open negotiations for the purchase of Cuba. It was Iald over to enable the Senator to make a speech. This is the usual form of delivering buncombe, resolutions such a3 General Biau’s being designed principally to allow the mover to make @ speech on the subject. Whea the morning hour terminated the Amnesty bill, with Senators Morton and Sumner’s amend- ments, came up as the general order. ‘The irrepres- sible Garrett Davis moved to-day to lay tt aside in- Jormally, to enable him to make a speech on the resolution he oifvred some time ago instructing the Retienchment Committee to investigate the news- paper charges of nepotism and revelving presents made 80 constantly against the President. Ounk- ling and Morton at once objected to the proposed informal laying aside of the general order, because it would prevent a reply being made to the resolutions of '1793,"" as Mr. Davis is some- times waggishly designated. Messrs, Trumbull and Sumner both objected to the formal laying aside of the pending order, but thought it contrary to the usual courtesy of the Senate not to allow Mr. Davis’ motion of informally doing so vo pass, It 1s a cus: tom which would certainly be “‘more honored th the breach than in the observance’ to allow Sen- ators to break in on the regular business aad consume time in discussing subjecta im- tended only for personal effect and home consumption, Mr, Conkling had recently availed himself of the precedents tu find occasion for the delivery of his speech against the proposed “one-term” amendment, He was twitted on this, but got out of the apparent aimiculty by stating that tis speech was delivered on a day when thera was no other business set, He also, with Senator Sher. man, gave notice that the Kentucky Senator could not be allowed to make @ speech on such charges as he presented without provoking a general debate. An implied threat or reference to holding the mover to the responsibility brougnt Mr. Davis to his fect ‘with a pugnacious declaration that he was ready to meet all @uch responsibility, Mr, Thurman now iuterposed with the suggestion that the matter had better go over tll @ more favorable occasion, as the Amnesty bill ought not to be antagonized. Mr. Davis acceptea the hint and withdrew into qnietude, The Amnesty bill then came up, Mr Sumner belng unprovided with any more lewers to read, and Mr, Edmunds announcing that nis health would not permit him to speak. Every one ex- pected that a vote would be taken on Mr. Sumaer’s amendment, when Senavor Sawyer arose and read a speech, designeu to break the force of the chargo made by Sumner against, several of the Southern Senators, that they were fatcnless to their colored constituents, Mr. Hill, of Georgia, followed in the game yiey: . Morto} suggested some technical amendments to the amendment tela+ tive to striking out the words “churches and come- terles,” which were accepted by Mr. Sumner. Mr. Thurman then took the floor, and gradually warmed himself into the delivery of 9 sharp analytical attack on the amendment, declaring it wholly un- constitutional, and drafving with constderabie force @ diatunction between protecting rights and en- forcing privileges. Mr. Robertson, of South Caro. Una, who has charge of the original bill, seeing that amnesty was sure to be slaughtered in the House uf Mr, Sumner’s amendment was acceyted, and de- feated in the Senate if it was not, moved to lay the pending bill and amendments aside and take up another general Amnesty act passed by the House, On this topic devate lasted the rest of the session, Mr, Thurman aaving the floor when the senate ad- journea. (nvestiaation Into the New Orleans Troubles— Fierce on the Republican Southern Recon- struction Schemes. The first flerce party battle of the session was fought in the House to-day over a resolution ofiered by Mr. Garfield for an appropriation to defray the expenses of the special committee ap- pointed to go to New Urieans. Mr. Farnsworth flrea the first gua by asking what this committee should go to New Orleans for, followed by a shot trom Mr. Hale, who wished to know wnat the:committee could do after tt got there. Messrs. Gartield and Dawes favored the investigation, The latter de- fended the President from newspaper aspersions, which have declared that he was opposed to this investigation, On the contrary, Mr. Dawes said le ‘Was most-anxious for it, and it was in consequence of the conflicting statements received from there that he now asked for it. Mr. Voorhees, of Indiat took up the gauntlet and proceeded to deal blows right and left, le was in favor of the investigation, and as he proceeded to depict the condition of the South, its misery, poverty and de- moralization, charging it’ upon the bad government foisted upon an unwilling people, composed of men two-thirds of whom could neither read nor write, the deepest interest and closest attention was paid to every word that fell from his lips, and the beaming faces of his party friends closely surrounding him evinced the satisfaction felt in what to them seemed his very damaging eloquence. His rounded sentences and well made periods were listened to with delight by one side and anxious interest by fhe other. He charged the republican party with rearing the pyra- Mid of their governments upon its apex instead of its base and proceeded to depict the condition of the Southern States. He declared there were out- rages the recital of which had made blood run cold, He charged them all as the result of bad government, and contrasted the present with the past, when the State government was in the hands of able men, instead of the ignorant and debased, He ciosed by calling upon the republican party to look upon the picture and see if there were any piecasing features tn It ‘There was o perceptible tremor both on the floor ‘ond in the galleries when the voice of Mr. Shella« barger, of Olio, was heard in response to tee fading echoes of Mr. Voorhees’ eloquent diatribe, A speech from Shellabarger in exciting debates 1s always re- garded by republicans as the marshalling of reserves which will decide a turning point in @ conflict. He begins voy a stirring reference to the slanderous unfairness witn which the President was treated in the charges made that he did not desire investigation, stating that of his own personal knowledge he knew the contrary. He then proceeded to addross himselt to Mr. Voorhees, and begun by asking why the orator «lid not elaborate the postulage with whion he commenced that the governments of the South had been placed on their apices instead of on their if it was placing them on the apex to construct them upon the votes of all the people in- stead of a portion. His manner of making thts point excited the democrats, a score of whom were on théir feet at once to get in some rebuttal The Speaker, however, paid no attention to them, but went on with his argument, asking if the oppo- sition proposed to take the vote from the black man. He then proceeded with words and manner that were charged With earnestness to describe tne condition of the South when the rebeilion glosed. Those States were in ruins; the probiem was whereupon to ob- tain materiais with which to rebutid them. The re publican party decided to take all the people, and the democracy have ever since denounced them. No republican: complained. The black man, if ige norant, was patriotic, He knew thas his interest and that of the country were one, In Uits strain Mr. Shellabarger continued, the members gathering around him and the galleries ustening attentively. When he closed, the republicans at least thought Mr. Vooruces had becn effectually an- swered. Mr, Beck, of Kentucky, returned to the charge with bitter denunciations of the whoie- sale “corruption existing, he claimed, as the resutt of reconstruction and carpet-bag rule, Mr, Stevenson, of Ohio, made a strong speech in reply, answering Beck's charges In a telliag manner, and closed by declar- ing that ff all the corruption in the Southern States was boiled down to its bitterest essence ana poured into the pot of Tammany 1t would not add one linge to that reeking mess, The apt figure was re- ceived with great laughter by the majority, who, after the appropriation had been adopted and the House adjourned, parted in high glee over the vic- tory gained tn the first oratori¢al tournament ot the Session, Shipbuilding and Shipbuying in the House Baried in Coumittce, The feature in the House of Representatives to-day was the reference of Mr, Hale's bill to revive American shipbuilding to the Committee on Ways and Means. ‘This action 19 considered wy the demo- crats and revenue reformers as a piece of impudent trickery, intended to cajole the shipbullders of Maine and the iron manufacturers of Pennsyivania, and to cheat the merchants of New York. Mr, Hale, a very young and a very tenacious, if not very avle man, was put forward to champion a measure upon which the whole House would unite, though it 1s not satisfactory to either Party. The republicans dishke tt because in relieving the compoaent parts of a ship trom Import duties 11 1s at war with the theory of pro- tection, and tie democrats receive it with ilttle favor because it fails to go far enough, If the. measure allowed us to buy ships abroad a3 well as tom:ke them at home it would be tdentical with the scheme s0 long and s0 ably advocated by Mr. Cox. Even as it now stands 1t is, as tar as it goes, @ transcript of Mr. Cox's speeches op shipbuilding and was directly opposed by the republicans in the House last yea. and more recently by Mr. Boutwell im bis Mercantile Library address tn New York, It 1s funny enough to see the republican oxen hitching on to Cox’s cart, and to hear Dawes! sneer of “ine ile lachr ym@"” on veholding Cox's toars at seeing his favorite doctrine appropriated by the otuer side, But i was tuonier still to hear Hale’s little speeches, with which he managed for a while to spend the little time or each Monday morn- ing’s hour that was lett for the bill, To-day he Spent his time in complimenting Dawes, waile pre- tending that he did not want the bili to go to the Committe on Ways and Means, till Cox upset bim by accusing him of wishing it to go on in the same way forever, and by upsetting him forced the House to act. The unnecessary reference of the billtoa committee, when speedy action 1s required and the House as weil preparea to act now as it ever will be, cannot fail to dis- appoint the country, and espécially tne people of New York city. Cox’s ofterepeated expression, “You won’t let ws buy, and you wont let us build,” is beginning to have tis eflecl, and a very largo element in Congress now demands for New York the right possessed by cyery gther navjou oy the earth to purchase ships on the Clyde, where they can be made and sold for the least money. When Mr. Hale's bill, which, together with the additional section offered by Mr. Cox for repealing the obnoxious and restrictive law of 1792, comes back from the Committee on Ways and Means, if iL ever does come back, for the Pennsylvanians mean to keep it there, it will beso meiied and wekled with tweaty or thirty other blis a8 to be scarcely recognizable and thoroughly useless, But the opportunity for a discussion of It on its merits and a compieie ventilation of the whole subject can- not then be prevented by such litte speochmakers as Haie, It the opportunity ts afforded them, some of the New York Congressneu wiil lead off in a bold dvcomtion of te measure, ned—armed wit {09 f25} that dut of the “Idd sieaniers Watch Sait out of that city for Europe there is not a single American vessel, aiid. that though these ships yield their owners an annual net profit of $20,000,000, the gross receipts being twice that amount, nota dollar of iv goos to an American captain, stevedore or even sallors’ boarding house keeper—they will make a very effective tight in favor of free trade in snips, ‘The fact that Mr, James Brooks opposed the repeal of the law of 1792 two years ago and prevented the purchase of the German ships tied up in New York attbe breaking out of the Franco-Prussian war, whereby the West lost $25,000,000 for the want of freight room for the wheat crop, has been much lamented, but his change of base, as evinced in bis speech last Monday, gives encouragement of a dif- ferent course and a determined effort will be made to give New York the right to buy ships as well as Maine the opportunity to build them, The Syndicate. On its face, the report of the Committee on Ways and Means on Mr. Boutweli’s Syndicate trausac- tions seem very favoravie to the Secretary, but the stupidity of the democratic members of the com- mittee was not as apparent, aud the intended mt- nority report can also elucidate their failure to coms prenend the situation. The committee agree that the debt bad not been increased, though it was plain Mr, Boutwell had two sets of vonds—one intended to replace the other—drawing interest atthe same time, and illustrated their want of appreciation by disagreeing on the question as to whether he exceeded his authority in giving the Syndicate control of the bonds under the new loan before paying for them. As tne one ques» tion myolves the other and both are identical, a good deal af merriment 1s occasioned by the fact that the majority and munority reports will be worthy of Jack Bunsby. ‘he New York Post OMi-e Defalcation. Tue Postmaster General sent to the Senate to- day a reply to the resolution asking for Infor. mation relative to the defaication of Mr. Norton, the late head of the Money Order Bureau at New York, He says Postmaster Jones has on several occasions verbally informed him that he has grounds for suspecting complicity with Norton in the embegziement on the part of prominent and responsible. persons in New York, in respect to whose credit and business he has been and is now making investigation, at much expense and trouble, with the aid of the proper law officer of the goverument. IfsuMcient proot of such complicity be obtained the embezzled funds will be traced Into the hands of responsible parties, bound legally and justly to make good the defaication. Mr, Jones has expressed to the Postmaster General his great unwillingness to cail upon investigation 1s com- bis sureties uatil the plete, to replace and retund the amount of Norton’s ‘defaication, jor the reason that, 1n ‘is opinton and in that of his legal adviser, the payment to the United States by nis sureties of the amount of the defalcation would render invalid acclaim therefor against any parties implicated with N .

The Grand Duke and his friends had a very gay and festive time of it on the road between here and Ki Carson, ‘fheyoleft yesterday forenoon in their Special Puliman train and jogged along so leisurely astonot reach Topeka until nearly noon to-day. The trip was most emphatically one of the pleas- antest and moat edilying railroad journeys which His Impertal Highness has had since he commenced his Amertcan tour. 3 SHOOTING THE GAME FROM THE DUCAL TRAIN. The buffalo-hunting experiences of the aay before were substantially repeated for nearly the whole length of the road. Vast and numerous herds were seen, and of course the temptation to take a few shots was too strong to be resisted, The first herd seen was fully half a mile from the track and the train was moving along at an average speed of about twenty miles an hour, The Grand Duke and General Custer, each armed with a Spencer rifle, took positions in the ba we car, and Aloxis very soon levelied his plece at a ponderous animat and banged away, The shot fell short of the mark by about twenty feet, and of course the herd scat- tered raptdiy and promiscuously. The enthusiastic Russian seized another piece, and although the coveted game was over half a mile distant the Duke’s unerring aim brought the doomed buffalo to the ground, The train was tmmediately stopped and the wounded buffalo soon overtaken and finished and his tail amputated and brought away a8 another trophy of the imperiai hunt on the American Plains, During the balance of the day shots were fired at stray herds along the track, and the Duke probably brought down no less than half a dozen of the animals vefore twilight, Generals Sheridan and Custer and others who are on the train contributed to the diminishing of the it 3 said Prat 2,200 delegates will ve ia ee remains of General buffalo tribe, OrrizeN CURIOSITY. The inhabited stations along che llae of the Kan- sas Pacific Railroad were few and small, but the people living tn the neighborhood of the route were invariably out to catch @ glimpse of the Imperial Visitor as he passed, In some cases Alexis responded to the’ calls by putting tn an appearance, aud was of course hearuly cheered. MILITARY COMPLIMENTS. At Fort Wallace two tull compantes of the Third infantry came over from the fort and received bim in fine style, The band stationed at the fort was also present and tendered a serenade during the fow moments the train remained, At Fort Hayes there was also an enthusiastic assemblage, and several oMicera of the post were presented to the Duke by General Sheridan, RECEPTION IN TOPEKA. y The train arrived here this forenoon at about eleven o’ciock, Several thousand people were as- sembled ac tae station to see the Russian guest and unite in the excitement and enthusiasm of his hearty reception. The Topeka band was also around and gave an untuterrupted strain of ‘‘iiatl to the Chief |” from the moment the train stopped uutil the Duke nad en- tered and been driven away in his carriage. Tue crowd, of course, cheered. The streets through Which the distinguished guest passed were filled With an enthusiastic multitude, Alexis and General Sheridan rode ina carriage with Lieutenant Governor Elder and Mr, Cobb, Speaker of the House, and the gentlemen of the different sultes were accompanied by State and city officers, The party first proceedea to the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where a brief rest .was had and a few infor- mal introductions gune through with, Then prepa- rations were made for fhe more pohipous formaliticg incident to the visit 0, @ Russian Duke, ‘these consisted of a welcone on be rt of the Legislature and subsequent eit Féception, This latter wag indulg in by almost the whole Gomimunlty, the Tadies, however, dutniumbering the other sex by two to one, and full of enthusiasm and admiration over tne noble Alexia, From the Fifth Avenue the party went directly to the State House, first visiting the Executive Depart- ment and paying their compliments to Governor Harvey, the members of the Executive Council and ‘tne several Justices of the Supreme Court. During this interval the doors of the House of Representa- tives were thrown open, and the space not occupied by the members was quickly Aled with an anxious Moultitude. ‘rhe session of the lower branch of the Legtsiature Was soon brougat to @ close, and then the two branches went into joint convention. Then the hero of the nour, the Duke Alexis, was goon ushered into the presence of the august body, PARLIAMENTARY HONOR, He was accompanied by Lieutenant Governor Elder and by bim introduced to Speaker Cobb. At this moment all eyes were strained to see the guest of the day, and lis tall form was soon recog. nized and irequently admired and complimented. After the momentary sensation caused by his en- trance was over the Speaker proceeded to welcome the guest in benait of the people of Kansas, THE ADDRESS. In doing 80 he spoke as lollows:— Your IMPERIAL AIGHNESS—It gives me unfelgned Pleasure to welcome you to our capital, to invite you topartake of the hospitality our beloved State. I do this in a spirit of repubitcan simplicity beitung the State of Kansas.
