16 - WASHINGTON. The Colorado and New Mexico En- abling Bills Pass the Senate. POLITICAL EQUALITY GUARANTE! D Final Conflicts of Argument Over the Appropriations in the House. Estimates and Expenditures Compared and Criticised. ‘THE LEGACY OF THE WAR. The Caucus Force Bill Under Consideration. FROM OUR WASHINGTON, Feb. 24, 1875, A MIDNIGHT SESSION IN THE HOUSE—THE FORCE BILL BROUGHT UP aT Last. Both houses sat late to-night, and the House is Bikely to sit all might. In the Senate the order of | Abusiness was agreed to and pursued till adjourn- mment. The Enabling acts for Colorado and New Mexico were passed, and then Mr. Morton brought up his bill lor changing the twenty-second joint rule. Wnis is anficished business for to-morrow, and “when it is done tne Civil Rights bill ts to be taken up. It jooks as if the administration men had eed npoa a rally along the whole line; Jor to- might, unexpectedly, the caucus Force bill was | +orced upon the House, after a severe struggle, in ‘which Mr. Poiand endeavored vainly to get ip the Arkansas report, and others sought o.)«=os bring §=ssSorward = the regular business ills, This was considered @ trick, and there is doubt that it was done by private agreement ‘among the administration men, who took advan- stage of the tact that the night sessions are avuided ‘by many members. When the report reached the jotels of what was doing there was a general Movement toward the Capitol, tor it was antici- pated that there would be a lively time. At hali-past twelve the House 1s still is sesaion, nd it will continue so probably until noon to- ‘morrow. The struggle is over the Force pill, mand is virtually tnat of the administra- «tion against the independent repubiicans, At oon to-morrow begins the session of the first af the last six days, during whicu it requires a Awo-thirds vote to suspend the rules to pass any- thing. Hence the struggle to-night; !or aiter this , day, which parliamentarily ends at twelve o’clock ®0-morrow, the strong measures ior the Soutn gannot be got before the House without a two- Rhirds vote, which they cannot now get. NTHE BELGIAN AND TURKISH MISSIONS—RUMORS OF NEW DIPLOMATIC APPOINTMENTS. “When it was rumored about to-day that Mr. ymard was to go to Constantinople the lowa delegation denied it, on the ground that they bad ited in recommending Mr. Donan for that place cena a him to get it.

LONE WOLF AND HIS SON INTO TEXAS—NO PASSES GRANTED INDIANS TO ENTER THAT STATE. The Commisstoner of Indian Affairs has written Better to the Governor of Texas, calling atten- tion to @ statement in his annual Message to the Legisiature that the Interior Department was ac- Bustomea to permit passes to Indians, on ‘which they leave the agency and raid Ymto Texas, and that Lone Wolf had a pass Jrom the Imdian agent to go to Texas to procure the boay of his son when he committed ‘his last raid.

THE ADMISSION OF COLORADO AS a STATE. The unfinished business being the bill to en- able the people of Colorado to iorm a con- stitution and State government, and ior the admission of the said State into tne | Union on aM equal footing with the other States, | Mr. Hrreseock, (rep.) of Neb., said he did not | think there shonia be any prolonged discussion over thls bill, considerea it Carefujly, and {rom ali iniormation gathered, felt Satistied that the population o1 Colo- rado was nearly 140,000. According to the census of 1870 the population of the Territory was 40,000, and tt nad increased rapidly since then. The Yer | ritory has 735 miles of completed raiiroads, con- structed @t a Cost Of $30,000,000, Probably no Ter- ritory bad been admitted with such ap aggregate | bas at the present time. ‘Ihe only possible ques- uon whicO could be raised against her admission was that Of population, but, as other States had been admitted with a population no larger than | that of Colorado at the present day, ne hoped that | objection wouid not be urged. iT. SARGENT, (rep.) of Cal., Said he objected to the large land grant made by the Dill, and pro- posed to amend it, He also objected Lo the twelith the sales of public lands lying within Colorado, Which have been or shall ve sold by the United States prior or subsequent to the admission of ) said State into the Union, shall be paid to the State for the purpose of making sucd internal im- | provements as the Legislature thereof may direct. He moved to amend by striking out the words per cent should be paid upon the sale of land sub- Bequebt to the admission Of the State. r. EDMUNDS, (rep.) of Vt., favored the amend- ment of the Seuator from Caltiornia, and said he | was in favor ot the admission of Colorado upon a just bill, which would do justice to the prove or | that Territory and do justice to the people of the | United States, Mr. SARGANT said if that was the only reason the | Senator could give, he (Mr. Sargent) thought it would taxe @ long time to pass this bul The amendment of Mr. Sargent was agreed to. Mr. SARGENT moved to add # proviso to the twellth secrion, to any lands disposed of under the homestead laws Of tue Cnited States, or any land pow or hereaiter reserved jor public or otner uses.” Agreed to. He also moved to amend by inserting the word “agricultural? im the same section, it would read, ‘Tua’ five per cent of the proceeds of the sales of agricultural public lanas, &c., suail be paid to the State,” &c. Agreed to. Mr. Hacgr, (dem.) of Cal., offered an additional section, “hat all mineral lands shall be excepted ¢ irom the operation and graut ol this act.” Agreed | to. THE ORGANIZATION. | _ Mr. Epmunps, of Vermont, moved to amend so as to provide that the proclamation ordertug the | election for members of the Constitutional Con- Veuslon shail be issued within ninety days next after the 1st day of September, 1875, instead of ninety days irom the passage o/ the act. Mr. Edmunds said bis object in offering this amend- ment was to give tne people of the ‘Yerritory suf- ficient time to discuss al] the questions affecting | the organization of the State. He algo suomitted an amendment providing that the election to ratify or reject the constitution | framed by the Convention shali be heid in the | month of July, 1876. Agreed to—yeas 27, nays 22, Mr. HAGER Sobmitted an amendment to sectioa | 8 ponene toat the bed sectivns of land to be selected jor the purpose of erecting public build- ings in the State shail be Pissiea with the ap- | proval of the President. Agreed to. | Mr. INGaLLs moved to amend the thirteenth | | section, so as to inake section 2,378 of the Revised Statutes applicable to the State when admitted instead of the act of September 4, 1341, entitlea an act to appropriate the proceeds oF tne sales of the public lands and to grant pre-emption righte. | Agreed to. | “Mr. Hamipron, (dem.) of Md., called attention | to the fourth section of the bili, which he said | compelled the people of Colorado to enact a Civil Kights oul before they could be admitted. The majority in this Congress bad not been able to | pass such @ Dill to this day. He hoped tne | people of Colorado would be allowed to come in on an equal footing with the other States a@ud not bave @oy reconstruction policy fastened upon them. He movec to strike out in that sec. | tion tue following words:—*-Provided that the constitution shail be repuvlican in form, and make no distincuion in civil or political rights on ac- count of race or color, except Ludians not taxed, | and noc be repugnant tc the constitution of tne | United States and the principies of the Deciaration of Independence.” Mr. SARGENT Gemanded the yeas and nays upon the amendment of Mr. Hamilton to strike out as above mentioned. : At the suggestion of Mr, MERRIMON, (dem.) of | N.C., Mr. HAMILTON modified his amendment #0 ag to Strike out the words “and make oo distinc | ton in civil or politicalwights on account oi race or color, except Indians nut taxed.” | _ Mr. Bucy, (dem.) of Mo., argued that the new Stare would Lave the light to change its cousti- vution at any time, aud Congress bad no right to impose sucn a restriction as this one proposed. } be amendment of Mr. Hamilton was rejected— | yeas 17, nays 39. | _ Messrs. Sprague and Tipton voted with the dem- Ocrats, in the afirmative. | Tne bill was then reported to the Senate, and | the amendments made in Committee of tne Whole concurred in. Mr. Coopgr, (dem.) of Tenn., said, a8 a member of the Committee on Territories, he opposed tuis bill on account of the small population of the Ter- | ritory. The census of 1870 snowed & population of | 89,800, and he could not optam evidence suficient | to Satisiy nim of the increade, since tuat tme, | claimed by the Chairman of tue Committee, | _ The bill Was then read « toira time and passed— | yeas 43, Days 13, Messrs.

He also recalled the iact that on the 23d of June last, when he pre- sented the last of the appropriation biils, he gave a summary of the amount appro- priated im the twelve regular bills, not counting the $4,000,000 Navai Emergency ill, aud stated that they made about $20,500,000 ‘legs thau the same bills of tne preceding year; and that on the whole a reduction o! the | General expenses of the government nad been anade of ubout $25,000,000. been very generally criticized, both in the House aud in the puolic press, ‘Ine statement o! the Secretary Of the ‘'reasury showed a reduction of of difference to which he called attention. item o| | woich had not appeared oelore, except in perma- nent appropriations, being the expenses of the AnD Tue Secre: Y $4,000,000 Naval Emergeacy bill and $2,134,000 of relief act-, of whith he had stated distinctly he could not teil the amount. Putting all these e! Ments together the Secretary’s statement came within about ball a mulion of his owc. He thought, | thereiore, in view of all the tacts, and the state- meut having been hurriediy made io the iast moments 01 the session, that there had been no ground for the criticisms made upon bis speech, or on tne estimates then made that they were in- tended ior political effect. It bad also been sug- gested last session thatthe cutting down of appro- Ppriations wouid simply result io a iarge deficiency ‘bill at this session. He bad in his hand a table snowing the anoual deficiencies since 1871, being for 1871, $22,000,000; for 1872. $14,000,000; for 1873, $8,500,000; fur 1874, $11,000,000; and at last 0 @ little over $4,000,090, and from the esti- now bevore the committee ne could not see the Deficiency bill at (bis session would reach $3,000,000. It seemed to him tbat that was a feasomably fair inoication | Of the estimates made at the last session. | had prepared an analysis of the expenses of t: | Sovernment for the last fiscal year, dividing them | Into turee groups:—F. all the expenses grower | te war; second, the current ex- of the army aud navy, together witn the 3, aad <oird, all other expenses— | puolic buildings and | Pubiic works Of ail kinds, id ail tbe miscellanies | Of the government. It was curious to notice the | relations of the fret group with the general ex- | penses of the government. For instance, in 1871 THE WAR EXPENSES | amounted to $175,500,000; 1m 1873, to $167,500,000, ; and in 1874, to $154,000,000, In 1871 they were 60: Per cent of all expenses; 10 1873, 54 per cent, ani 1 1874, 6335 per cent. lt was then to be distimetly | anderstood tnat the public debt, the ifiterest on the public debt, the peusiuns, the bounties and all | that went to ag the expenses necessitated by the War, made now almost 64 percent of the total | eXpenses of the government, ‘The expenses | of the civil service ran on in this way:— | In 1871, they were $71,000,000; in 1873, 79,000,000, aud in 1874, $74,000,000. The most Gangerous item in that amount, he believed | to be tue item for public works, and be tavugit | that the expeuditures On them ougot to be limited and watcved with more care than those | perbaps of any otner part of the government, [a | tuis connection ne aiiuded to the immense out- | lay of the French goverament ior magnificent | public parks. In conciusion, be said that the | Committee on Appropriations had attempted this | Session to pursue the same policy as it did last | year in keeping down appropriations. All the |— | 8ppropriation bilis had now passed the House, | except tuls Suodry Civil Service bili and the Deliciency vill, fue Legisiative bill was in con- | lerence, it appropriated about $1,000,000 leas than | the Legisiative bill of last year, bus that was so | because the printing of the Treasury Department | Nad been left off. The appropriations for tne army and the buvy were avout tue same as last year, | except as to the $4,000,coo Naval Kmergency bili of last year. The indiau Appropriation bill, as it passed tue House, was avout » million less than the biii Of last year, 1t was now on the tabie of tne Appropriation Committee, witn ine Senate amendments. The Fortification bill was # litte less than last year. The River and Harbor bill Was aoout Loree-quarters of a miliioa larger thaa last year. The Consular wand Diplomatic Appropriation bill was $2,000,000 less than year, because the weneva aswaid | Sppropriation was in last years bill. The Fost Odice Appropriation biil gave about $1,600,000 more last year. {he Pension dill was | soout the same. ‘Ihe Judiciary Civii Appropria- | Hou bill Was about $1,250,000 leds than toe bill of | lawt year, and the Deficieacy bill would be avout $1,000,000 less. Putciog uli these things together, | Re thought the reductions un the appropriation | bile would ve @ little more than $7,000,000, DEMOCRATIC ATTACKS, Mr. RANDALL, (dem.) of Pa., criticised the ex- | penditures guder tae head of puvilc printing aud | binging.
