Arrival of the “lalwa—Livingstone’s Ke- mains Returned to British Soil. SOUTHAMPTON, April 15, 1874, After being looked for most anxiously since Sun- day night the Peninsular and Oriental steamship Malwa, conveying the remains of Dr. Livingstone | from Aden to England, arrived at Southampton this evening, and a public reception of a most sol- emn and imposing character uas been accorded to the body of the great explorer. was telegraphed from Hurst Castle at six o'clock, and two hours afterwards the Fawn and Queen steamer proceeded down the river to meet her, having on board Mr. Osweil Livingstone, Mr. H. M. Stanley, of the Nsw Yor«K HERALD; the Rev. Horace Waller, Mr. Webb, Mr. Arthur Laing, of Zanzibar, and other personal friends of the deceased, as weil as various mem- bers of the Royal Geographical Society and the local committee having charge of the arrange- | ments for the public reception of the remains, and other gentlemen. MEETING THE MALWA. Scarcely @ word was spoken as the tender Ploughed through the water, nearing every min- ute the approaching Malwa. The commitee strained their eyes to catch a glimpse of the boat contain- ing the remains of their colieague and traveller of Africa. Mr. Oswell Livingstone and Mr. B. M, Stanley paired off and took up their position in the extreme bow of the boat, a position which they abandoned only to ascend the gangway of the Malwa. “Never shall | iorget the first night 1 spent with Livingstone,” observed Mr. Staniey, a3 we stood together on the Malwa, “‘Aiter our first greeting we talked till nearly twelve o’ciock, when I said, feeling very fatigued after my long march of that day, ‘Now, Doctor, I think it is time we should go to rest.’ Living- stone replied, ‘1 think s0, too. Good night, and | The old gentieman,” con- | may God biess you.’ tinued Mr, Stanley, “uttered that biessing with such depth and earnestness that trom that mo- Ment 1 felt myself bound to him.” Mr. Webb, Mr. Horace Waller and Mr. Arthur Laing formed another group. “Tnere is something insupport- ably sad in this meeting,” said Mr. Waller; “I shall | ©. never forget when I saw the poor fellow off at Dover in 1865. As he stvod on the vessel, cheer- tally waving adieus under the little Union Jack that floated over his head I little thought. that it would be my destiny to be the bearer of a Union Jack to cover the poor fellow’s remains. | As the tender approached the Victor Em- manuel (the large nospital ship just home from Cape Coast, anchored off Netiey Hospital), her helm was put “hard aport,” and her head was di- rected toward the Malwa, which at this time was | not more than half a mile distant. As the gigantic black hull of the majestic vessel slowly approached at quarter speed, a volume of dense smoke shot out of the funnel and foated over the vessel like an enormous pall, which struck one as being a remarkable incident at such a time and under such circumstances. There were but few ships lying at anchor, but all that there were hoisted their flags at half mast high as soon as the Malwa was sighted. It was oniy the work of a few minutes to board the vessel as soon as she came to a standstill. on the gangway belore our little cralt was abso- dately made fast alongside. STANDING AT THE SIDE OF THE COFFIN. ‘The corpse had during the voyage of the Malwa lain in the mail room, The bulwarks were covered ‘With flags, and a broad, long vdject was upon the floor, nidden beneatn a company’s flag. * This Mr. Alderton, the chiel officer of the ship, removing, we found, instead of the rude ‘packin case,” previously talkeu apout, & well-shaped, strongly and artistically made coffin of wood, stained black.

STANLEY'S INTERVIEW WITH JACOB WAINWRIGHT. Upon reaching the deck Jacob Wainwright, one of fivingstoue’s boys, who had charge of poor wone’s remains down to Zanzibar, was at once intei viewed by the committee. He is as black a8acoal, speaks English very well and appears otherwise intelligent. Mr. H. M. Stanley had a long conversation with him, and when that gentte- man said, “Jacob, do you know me ?”’ the boy's countenance at once lightened up, and, timidly putting out his hand, he replied, “On, yes, sir; I Femember you.” Jacob is about eighteen Livin; ears old. He stanis about five feet high, Bes closely cut woolly hair, a remarka+ D flat nose and heavy, thick lips, today were thicker than usuai in ice Of bemg struck on the mouth accl- dentally yesterday aiternoon by arope. The poor | as ‘Was surrounded appeared much sur- and rather nervous, but when Mr. Waller him on the shoulder and said, “You have behaved very well, Jacob; every one in Engiand we all thank you; youare a noble felio Jacob raised the whites of his small black eyes in token of hia appreciation of that yen- tleman’s kind words. Among other answers Jacob ou we to Mr. Stan- ga ley’s questions was one to the effect that they had, | in the course of their journey {rom Mulilaie to Zanzibar, lost one of their donkeys, which had died, their second and only one having been carried oif by a lion, This donkey Was one night placed im their tent, round which the Doys were asieep, and while asieep the lion entered the tent, jumped over the boys, and carried of the ammal. This loss, he addeu, fence in our journey. The doctor, Jacob also sai used sometimes to ride this doukey, but ior soit time beiore he died he unabie to ride the don- Gnd his boys used to carry nim, When he Was 0 sick,” said Mr. Stanley, “why id he not tarn back and come home?” “I don't know,” re id Jacob. “i never heard him say he ng became of the white tent I sent the Doc- tof 9” asked Mr. Stanicy. ‘‘tie always carried that with im, sir,” replied the voy. “And the little boat.” continued Mr. Stanley, “what became of that?’ “He always carried his littie voat, too, with nim, sir.” “Did the Doctor ever have occasion to fre his gun?’ was the next guestion put. “No, sir,” was the reply. ‘fhe master was not fond ol fring his ” “Did you,” asked Mr. Stanley, ‘‘see the grave of my white man (Shaw) wypen you were in the yil- lage of Kasegara?”? ‘Yes, sir, | did,” repiiea Jacob, “and it was very nice.” THE COFFIN LANDED. The Malwa having arrived in the river by eight o'clock, and, contrary to the mstructions previ- ously uiven by thefeompany, she came directly into dock, veing short of coal, FIRST RECEPTION BY THR PEOPLE, A strong wish was expressed that the arrange- , Ments jor a iuneral procession from the royal Pier should be carried out, the distance from the ks to the South Western Company's station being short, while that from the pter covers a good haif mule and embraces some of the most important of the town. Admiral Sir W. K. Ban, Vi ental oe of the Peninsular and Ori Company. expressed his readiness to fall in The steamer | Indeed, the eager- | ness Was so great (hat several gentlemen sprang | used us a great deal of inconven- | with the wishes of the o’ciock the body, which was Md in an outer wooden coffin of somewhat rude construction, ponea black, and covered with a large uinsular and Oriental Company, was hoisted ‘hich had been Mayor, and at nine encloses r steamer, The Queen, as well as tae yachts and other ver, were flying their flags half to the ships in port vessels th the Th mast high, and at the Audit House and other puo- tic and many private establishments the fags, all the same, were half-mast hign, while muilled peals were rung from the various parish churches. At eleven o'clock the Mayor, accompamied by the relatives of Dr. Livingstone, Sheriffs, senior and junior Baiiiffs of the borough, the Aldermen and Councillors and trates of the borough, the ‘Town Clerk, the clergy and ministers of the town, Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society, the President and members of the Medical So- ciety and of the medical profession generaily, the representatives of the akg the Guardians of the Sonthampton Corporation, the members of the Southampton Scnoo! Board, the foreign ot the commuitee of each literary and philosophi society in the town and the representatives of other public bodies, assembled at the Audit House, and, some formal introductions ing been made, Mr. Stanley being received with a hearty cheer, a procession, in @ detailed order, four deep, was formed and marched to the royal pier he: to which the body had meanwhile been conveyed in | the Queen, the Union Jack now serving as a pall. THE COFFIN. The coffin was then covered with @ black velvet pall, and was here the reiatives of publicly receivea e Dr. Livingstone, the deputation sent from the Royal Geographical Society and va- rious professional dignitaries, and was ed in @ hearse, drawn by four horses, bearing black drapery and black plumes, ‘CHIEF MOURNERS, The procession, on eaten 3 reformed, was headed by @ few brass bands playing ‘The Dead March in Saul.” It started from the pier-head at noon, Dr. Moffatt, the venerable African missionary and father-in-law of the departed traveiler; Mr. OD. Livingstone, his oldest son, who came home in tne Malwa, having joined the ship at Alexandria, on his right, and Mr. Oswell Livingstoue on his left, walked hiet mourners immediately vebind the hearse; and following these were Mr. Webb, Colonel Grant, Mr. Arthur Laing, the Rev. Horace Waller, Mr, Webb, of Newstead Abbey, and Mr. H. M. Stanley, while close at hand was the black boy Jacob Wain- wright, waiking in company with Kev. W. 8. Price, his former missionary tutor at Nasick, Bombay, in | whose church Dr. Livingstone received his last noe comunion in company with nis fellow Chris- tans, ON THE WAY TO WESTMINSTER. The procession marched slowly up the pier, on which there were hundreds o! spectators; but as the High street was reached the line of route was aimost impassable, while irom every window and every coign of vantage there were eager crowds, the roofs even beimg covered. The Mayor (Mr. Edwin Jones) had recommended a general closing of shops during the stay ot the remains and their transshipment and conveyance to the railway sta- tion. This recommendation was strictly acted upon, and everywhere was there to be seen and | | heard demonstrations of honor to the great ex- | plorer, The flags, half-mast high. were flying trom | all the public buudings; the belis from the Holy- | rood and St. Michael’s churches, both adjacent to | | the ume of route, sounding muitied peais, and a | salute of minute guns trom the plattorm battery. | The crowa was the thickest at the railway station, | and the way was there better kept than any- | | where else by a detachment of local poiice | | under Mr. Superintendent Breary which had | | been told off forthe duty. I should have stated | betore the rear of the procession was brought | | up by forty seamen oi the Royal Navy Re- | | Serve in uniform, some carrying Union Jacks hall- masted, and I think I am within the mark in say- | | ing that at least 600 gentlemen, mostly attired in | mourning, took partin the proceasion, The ter- minus was reached at a quarter to one. The hearse and horses bemg divested of thetr plumes, | | the former was placed on a truck in waiting, the coffin not being removed from it. A speciai train, liberally provided free by the London and South- western Way, Was at the station platform, and | the Messrs. Livingstone, Mr. Stanley and the otuer | chief mourners got in. The track was whipped on and at one o'clock | tptarg J the whole party started for London. | | There were a great many expressions of obiiga- | | tion on the part of the reiatives of the family and | the Geographical Society to the Mayor and Local | Reception Committee tor their excellent 4 ay ments, The weather throughout held beautifully | | fine, and was a@ pleasing conirast to the uncer- | | tainty which, in this respect, marked the Monday | | and Tuesday when so many were looking and hop- ing for the Malwa that did not come. The whole demonstration was most solemn and ) passed off without the slightest hitch. GRATITUDE IN THE MIDST OF GREAT GRIEF. The Mayor 0! Southampton has received the fol- | | lowing gratilying letter:— Sourmampton, April 15, 1874. | Dear Mn.

We are, dear Mr. Mayor, mourning coaches were Waterloo stauion to re- | | ceive the remains: and to convey the | mourners who fravelleg from Southampton | | by the special train, which arrived two or | three minutes alter iour o'clock, and by this | time there were about 100 persons in waiting to | | witness the departure of the procession. As soon ag | the train drew up it was seen that the hearse, | | with piumes, was standing upon an open | truck, and a general ruso was made to get near it. By this time Many passengers, who had just pre- | | viously arrived by a Portsmouth train, were made | aware oj the fact that the hearse bore the remains of Dr. Livingstone, and they joined the crowd, | | which, however, at no time numbered over 250. | While the truck was being shunted to a sliding for | the easier ianding of the hearse the chief mourners | became the centre of a sympathetic circle, and | Mr. H. M. Scaniey was followed to his coach by many people. When the hearse had been un- | shipped the horses were detached from that which | was in waiting at the station and fixed to the one | bearing the remains of the venerable traveller, the | mourners then took their seats in the coaches, the | first being occupied by the two sons of Dr. Living- | | stone and Dr. Moffat, and the other two were oc- | ceiving the pody at Southampton. THE ROUTE taken was by York road, Westminster Bridge, Charing Cross and thence to Piccadilly, and the coffin was piaced in one of the rooms belonging to | the Royal Geographical Society. | eR AEOR.

YACHTING NOTES. The schooner yacht Columbia, Mr. Lester Wal- lack, N.Y.¥.C., will go into commission next month. The Columbia has the name of being the fastest centreboard yacht in the New York Yacht Club; but, as the Madeleine has the same reputation, a match had better be made in order | to decide the question.

Sa Sev EO SS Seay Removal of One of the Assistant Clerks for an Alleged Misdemeanor. A meeting of the Board of Police Justices was held yesterday afternoon in the Clerk’s room of The session was long, and the discussion among the associate Justices was at times pretty Warm. ‘he occasion of the argument was the question of the removal of Mr. Joseph Kenyon, one of the assistant clerks at the Essex Market Police Court, Charges of irregularity in the conduct of his official business and misde- meanor were preferred against him some four weeks ago by Justices Flammer and Otterbourg. hi a Kenyon yesterday was heard in his own be- alt, Judge Wandell defended the accused very warmly, and said he could not believe Mr, Kenyon guilty of any intention of appropriating mone’ received for fines, one of the offences with whiel he was charged; and as far as the irregularity in the conduct of business was concerned, he thought the irregularity was at the fountain head, Mr. Kenyon had for years been known in the commu- | nity and had filled various places of trust with honor and credit to himselt, | Judge Otterbourg replied just as warmly, and | Said that in justice to himseif he had to preas the re- moval of Mr. Kenyon, as it Was necessary that the discipline and credit of the Court over which he presided, which was at stake, should be vindicated. He always considered Mr. Kenyon an honest man and had nothing to say against him now, except the examination of the books showed that there | was something wrong in the way the fines | | were collected. Nearly all the rest of the judges spoke at length, most of them however, agreeing that they did not suspect MI Kenyon of aisionesty, but considered that there had been more or less irregularity in the conduct | of che business, | _ A vote on the subject was finally taken, with the following resuit: For kemoval—Judges Morgan, Otterbourg, Flam- | mer, Kilbreth, Bixby, Smith—6, Wande!l—4. Mr, Kenyon was accordingly removed.

Mr. STEVENSON, (dem.) of Ky., presented a pre- amble and resolutions of the President and di- rectors of the Louisville and Portiard Canal Jom- pany denying that they were opposed to the government paying bonds and taking possession of the work, but that they were legally advised not to surrender possession until all debts be paid by the government. They further stated that the receipts of the company: for the past nine years | had been but little over $169,000 instead of $350,000 | per annum, as stated in the Senate. The resolu- tions were latd on the table. Mr. LoGan, (rep.) of lil, from the Committee on Military Affairs, reported favorably on the bill | making retirement in the army and Marine Corps, | a(ter a certain age, obligatory ; the bill authorizing | appointments and promotions in tne Medical and Ordnance departments of the United States Army; the bill to authorize the Secretary of War to re- serve from sale 10,000 suits of disused army clothing, and to transfer the same to the National Home for | Disabled Volunteer Soldiers; the bill authorizing the issue of clothing tu certain enlisted men of the army all of which were placed on the calendar, THE FINANCIAL VETO, The morning hour having expired, the Caan announced that the Senate would resume the con- sideration of the Louisiana bill. Mr. WRIeHT, (rep.) of lowa, moved that the bill be laid aside and that the Finance bili and the President’s message vetoing the same be taken up. The Senator from Indiana (Mr. Morton) had given notice last week that ke would move to take up the bill to-day. That Senator was now con- fined to his house by sickness, but he was perfectly willing to have the bill considered. Mr. CONKLING, (rep.) Of N. Y., said no notice was ven that a motion would be made to take up the ll to-day. During the debate last week it was | suggested that the bill be considered to-day, bat he (Mr. Conkling) declined to accept the sugges- tion, when he made the motion that the message lay on the table. ‘Mr. EDMUNDS said his friend from Missouri (Mr. Schurz), now aosent in Boston upon a mission of ublic importance, haa requested him to ask the Benate not to proceed to the consideration of the Finance bil) before his return, He would be here on Thursday, and he (Mr. Edmunds) thought it would be no more than proper to grant the re- would not be taken up now. Mr. FRELINGHUSEN, (rep.) of N. J., said he de- sired to have the Civil Rights bill considered, and had given notice some time ago that he would move to take it up when the Louisiana bill should be disposed of or laid aside. Mr. SHERMAN, (rep.) of Me Me the Senate should fix some day to take the vote upon the Finance bili in order that every Senator might be present. Nothing was to be gained by taking the | vote to-day. So iar as he was concerned be was | willing to vote now, but notice should be given | a8 to when a vote would be taken. The tme could be fixed tor Friday or Monoay next, He | therefore moved that the Finance bill and Presi- | dent’s message be made the special order.ior Mon- | day next, aiter the expiration of the morning jour. Mr. BOUTWELL, (rep.) Of Mass., said he had re- | | ceived information from his colleague (Mr. Wash- | | burn) to the effect that he desired to be here wien | the vote was taken. He had been detained from the Senate by public business, and he (Mr. Bout- | well) not le pergaee } that a vote would be taken 80 S00n, had not notified him to be present. Mr. SARGENT (rep.) of Cal., said he was opposed to this matter being settied without debate. He thougnt @ point had now been reached where debate would be of ase. He was prepared to dis- cuss and vindicate the statement of the President that the theory upon which the bill was founded was contrary to all sound principles of finance. He (Mr. Sargent) did not believe be ossibie to frame a __ Dill | which would satisfy all sections of the country, | and he desired it to be distinctly understood that | he would vote for no bill which provided for a | single dollar inflation, unless there should be some | provision for a return to specie payment. He | | thought long, useless discussions im this Congress | had done much to agitate the country. Mr. CARPENTER, (rep.) of Wis., said ithad peen declared here by one or two that @ measure could be perfected which would satisly all sections, To | periect that bill was the proper course for sensible Men, and the only question now was as to the best way to reach it, It would not, certainly, be | the best way to ei this veto hanging here, and, | theretore, he desired to see it disposed of at once. ‘The quicker it is over the quicker we will be out of our mourning. (Laughter). Mr. CONKLING asked unanimous consent to have | Friday next, at_ two o’cluck P. M., fixed for the | consideration of the bill, when a vote should be | taken without debate, Mr, MERRIMON, (dem.) Of N. C., said this measure was of toomuch importance to be passed over silently, and those who favored the bill owed it to themseives to thoroughly examine the message of | the President and discuss it. Mr. THURMAN, (dem.) of Uhio, said he would be gad to have it disposed of, but he thought a meas- | ure of this importance must provoke discussion. He woulda Lae his hearty support to any bill | | which would restore confidence and put the cur- | | rency of the nation on a sound basis, | He did not understand this great diversity of , opinion between the administration Senators, For | his part he Jonged to have a return to the good old days of Andrew Jackson, when the President hada good, wholesome influence upon Congress | aud when the policy and the views of the adminis- tration had some weight. DEMOCRATIC DEFENCE OF THR ADMINISTRATION, Mr. EDMUNDS, (rep.) Of V&., said he liked that | Speech, It put him in mind of old times, (Langh- ter.) The diffrence between a republican and a democratic administration was that in a republi- Can administration the Chief Magistrate attended | to his constitutional duties, whereas in the good | Old days of Andrew Jackson, if any demo- | cratic Senator failed to come to time or support any measure of the administration, he was not allowed to have any position in his party. It was for that reason chat the people in this country | broke down the democratic administrations, be- cause under them there were constant aggressions against the liberties of the people, In the repub- lican party every Senator had a right to his own Opinions and acted according to his own views, Mr. THURMAN said, When he enterea the Senate five years ago, there was one man here to whom | the republican party was indebted for its exist- | ence more tian to any other man living. | time came when that man disagreed with tne | views of the administration, and was humiliatea | in every way therefor. To such an extent was he | humiliated that he was only allowed a place upon | | the committees by democratic votes, He ~< =, Pa s rer Thurman) thought it would not | do for tue Senator irom Vermont (Mr. | Eamvnds) to talk about independence in | | the republican party, in view of this tact. History would bear out the statements which he (Mr. Thurman) had made. Since the days of George Washington every success{ul administration nad always exercised a wholesome influence in the halls of Congress, so as to prevent its party | from being dashed to pieces by collisions among its own members. When the St. Domingo juestion was beiore the Senate the opinion of tne | Executive was very woll known, and the exer- } tions of the President in its behalf were felt; but | | now, when it came to the great question of the currency, Whether we should drift off into a sca of irredeemable paper tmoney, or whet! by wise legislation, the country should be brought back to a sound currency, itis said the | duty of the rresident is to wrap bimseif up in a | | cloud and let the members of his party array them- selves against cach other and pass measures he ‘was bound to arrest by the Presidential veto. THE EXECUTIVE INFLUENOK NOW. Mr. EDMUN Ds said his friend (Mr. Thorman) had | Congress. That influence in the past history of the | democratic party meant that unless democratic Senators stood by the administration this or that friend would be removed from office and they coula | have no influence with the administration. | Mr. THURMAN said it meant nothing of the kind, | Mr, EpMUNDS said the President was to be com- mended for not interfering in jegisiation. The | mon-election of Mr. Sumner to the chairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Relations was nat for ee Allison, gan, | Bogy. McCreery, Boreman, Merrimon, Cameron, Mitchell, Carpenter, Norwood, Clayton, Oglesby, Conover, Patterson, Dennis, Pease, Dorsey, Pratt, | Ferry (of Mich.), Ramsey, Goldthwaite, Robertson, Gordon, Spencer.

The Senator had no right to say that Senator Sumner or any other rayne beeen pursued by the administration Mr. Hows, (rep.) of Wis, said the very Senate which retused to put Mr, Sumner the head of the Committee on Foreign Relations tendered him al the same time the chairmanship of one of the most important committees of the Seuate—Privi- leges and Elections, Mr. LoGaN, (rep.) of Iil., said the friends of the Finance bill were witling to keep silent and vote, buc he warned his friends on the other side not to commence the war, Mr. CAMERON, (rep.) of Pa., said he was not placed at the head of the Foreign Kelatious Com- mittee at his own request. The way be came to be made chairman was being second on the com- mittee, and he had been given that position at the request of Mr. Sumner, when that gentieman was chairman. He was absent at his home in Penn- syivania when aasigned to the chairmanship. He came re at the earliest opportunity, in- tending to decline, bat upon entering the Senate Chamber and hearing the remarks of a Senator who was over-zealous in behalf of Mr. Sumner, which were not complimentary to him (Mr. Cameron), he reconsidered bis determt- pation and accepted. He had seen it announced in the newspapers that he had robbea Mr. Sumner of his place on the committee. Great heaven! He did nothing of the kind. The feeling between him- self and Mr. Sumner was of the most friendly char- acter. When he (ir. Cameron) had to go home to his sick family he asked Mr. Sumner to pair with him on tne bill then up. Mr. Sumner replied:— “Yes, Cameron, gladly,” and we shook hands. He said, “God bless you,” and I said, ‘God bless you.” SUMNER’S VINDICATION. Mr. HAMLIN, (rep.) of Me., said ue thought tt ap- propriate to state that at ‘the time the Senator (Mir. Cameron) was placed at the head of the For- eign Relations Committee in place of Mr. Sumner, it was done simply and ly upon the under- standing that Mr. Sumner was not. on speaking terms with the President or Secretary of State. Mr. THURMAN said it was not his province to de- cide this question; but the speech which Mr. Sum- ner prepared showed differently. However, Mr. Sumner’s own works would show his own history, would show the truth, and that would be re long aiter this Senate had passed away. Charles Srmner’s own account would be believed, and that would show why he was not upon speaking terms with the President and Secretary of state. The debate which took place in open Senate when Mr, Sumner was displaced gave the opposition mem- bers some idea of what took place in the caucus. He (Mr. Thurman) thought Mr. Sumner to | the day of his death was @ proscribed man be- | cause lie would not support @ measure of the ad- | Mministration. Tue country thought so. No one | ever attributed the displacement of Mr. Sumner head of the Committee on Foreign Relations to his successor, the Senator from Pennsylvania. In- deed, that Senator (Mr. Cumeron) bad expressed to him (Mr. Thurman) a wish to be relieved. Mr, Hows said if any one topic was out of order he thought this was. He corroborated what had been said by his friend from Maine (Mr. Hamlin), that the action of Mr. Sumner on the St. Domingo Treaty had no intuence in bringing about the change in that committee, The late Senasor from Massachusetts preferred to believe what Was not true, and, further, there were uno plausible grounds tor believing it. THE “CONFIDENTIAL” SPEECH. Mr, ANTHONY, (rep.) of R. J., said Mr. Sumner ‘Was not removed on account oj his opposition to the St. Domingo treaty. Reference bad been made during this debate to a speech Mr. Sumner wrote. That was not a speech of Mr, Sumuer. He wrote it, but decided not to deliver it, and the man who violated his confidence over his new made grave committed an act of periidy which would not be forgotten. Mr. Sumner did him (Mr. Anthony) the honor to show him that speech. There was not more than a half dozen given out, and each one contained a mem- orandum, ‘nis is in confidence.” If Mr. Sumner Mele bar no man would have dared to make it ublic. ¥ Mr. SHERMAN said the Senate must consider the day was being wasted without anything being ac- complished. The question being on Mr. Wright’s motion to lay aside the Louisiana bill and proceed to the con- sideration of the Finance bill and the President's | message, Mr. Conkling asked unanimous consent: to have the subject made the special order tor Friday, and that a vote be taken then without de- bate. Mr. MERRIMON—I object. Mr. CONKLING—Well, we know now on which side he is on who proposes to debate a dead bill. Mr. ANTHONY suggested that the bill be faken up, and the Senators coula agree to have the vote taken as soon as the Senator from North Carolina (Mr. Merrimon) finished his speech. Mr. SARGENT, (rep.) Of Cal., said if Senator Mer- rimon spoke other Senators on the opposite side would reserve the right to reply to what he might say. Kir. Teet0N Wad of Neb., said he thought the Senate of the United States had never exuibited such Jeeling as that exhibited on this occasion, 1t was a lecling of absolute terror, for jear a | debate might spring upon a Presidential veto, Wonderful solicitude shown by the great intrepid, weve rene: Of $200,000, the object being to Drea Up the aystem of requiring cach department to pay ie Owe postage, was agreed to, Yeas, 180; dment in reference to the ¢1 wing of notes and bonds by the Lire | ent, increasing the amount from $500, to $1,125,000, was agree ‘Yeas, 153; nays, 53, $625,000 for print- 1d. tO, par h appropriati: ing totes betas, Bs. was icken out without @ i r OF or con- tract, including the labor or workmen’ skilled ngraving, cal ying. om the work, teen ving rr o1 or en: a prin’ notes, bonds and other securities of the Uni States, the ray, for such labor to be fixed py the Secretary of the Treasury at rates not ex the rates usuaily paid for such work, and tor othei expenses oO! é! pving. and panes. notes, bonds and other securities of the United States, $1,125,000.

He had never seen tne speech written by Mr. Sumner which had been reierred to, but irom what had been said it was to be under." stood that there was something false in that speech. He held such confidence in the undouvted Invegrity of the man who wrote it, and the senate, | too, had that confidence yesterday, that he would believe every word in it as truth which my sworn to.
