WASHINGTON, Thursday, Jan. 24, 1887 In the Senate, to-day, Mr. Wade introfuced a bil) {0 take the appointment of United States Marshals from the President and give it to the Rupremg Court. $ was refefred to the Judiciary Gommittes. Con- deration of the "Tariff bill was mnmu\? 1 aklock. Mr. Gringes led off in a savage attack on the Protee- tiomista, and the publio journals that advocate thie eaase. - His idea seemed to ‘be that the honest and high-mimied peopis of the oountry aee all on his side, and that those who disagree with liln are a set df ar- yardk knives, whe will bear watching. This part of il speech was interesting to listen to, and if theTowa Benator had clesed his portfolio and quietly resumed hiv, seat justhere, and omitted the rest of his speech, he would not have persuaded his andience so -entirely, ‘i he did by pursning o different course, that his fome s mot political economy. There was little progress made -on the bill to-day. Three amend- ments, out of a great many that were offered, were adopted, one-putting books, maps, and charts, im- for publie colleges and libraries, on the free mm“ increasing the duty on linseed and lin- weed oil, and another allowing a drawback on cartain aarticles when exported. Toward the close of the day’s proceedings, Mr. Spragne denounced the bill as exactly the reverse of what Mr. Grimes had defined 4t. The debate commenced with tho declaration of Mr. Grimes that the bill was a robbery of the people for thegbenifit of manufacturers, and closed with the sssertion from Mr. Sprague that it was destructive to the manufacturers for the benefit of the importers. The House to-day was the scene of unusual interest. Themorning papersa nnounced that Mr. Stevens, was to address the House at length on his Reconstrmction bill, and a vote was to bereached. In accordance with this announcement, crowdsof people yisited the Capi- tol, and long before the hour of assembling the gallcries weré packed, one-third of those present be- Ing Jadics. The morning hour was consumed in de- bating the question of granting Agricultural College Jands to the States lately in rebellion. During the debate a couple of exciting scenes oceurred. Col. Btokes of Tennessee was making a brief speech, advo- eating Tennessee’s right to a share of the lands, when Mr. Le Blond, the funny man of the Jack Rogers’ side of the House, interrupted him, Stokes, and cast up to him the “Duncan letter,” in which Stokes, at the commencement of the Rebel- Yon, called Mr. Lincoln a tyrant. Stokes, who is by no means a polished orator, but who speaks with great earmnestness, replied very quickly to Le Blond that be (Stokes) wrote the letter a day or so before $he Rebels fired on the flag, and that when that was done, he immediately entered the Union army, and fonght two or more years to purge himself of the ts of the letter, and he thought that if Mr. Blond had, done the same thing, he might now ve been purged of his Copperhead proclivi- tles. Thfs was said in sueh a sarcastic manner 88 to draw forth applanse from both those on the floor and in the galleries, This little scene had hardly wubgided when, Judge Kelley spoke a few moments on the bill, and during his remarks charged President Johnson with usurpation of his powers. Col. Cooper of Tennessee, who for a long time occupied the posi- tion of Private Secretary to Mr. Johnson, replied to Judge Kelley, stating that his charge against the President was false. Before Judge Kelley could re- ply, seyeral members obtained the floor, When they Bad finighed, Kelley rose and asked Cooper to repeat his words. Kelley got np and said that *If he, the gentleman (meaning Kelley), said the President was ® usurper, he lies” Kelley then, a little ex- , reiterated his charge of wusurpation, and that Mr. Cooper was a fit man to defend tho President from the charge, for at the time of the neurpation, he (Cooper) was the President’s paid ‘onfidant, and a party to the usurpation. Cooper then told Kelley he lied again if he charged him with ‘pecelving the President’s money. Kelley again re- the charge, and said it was not Johnson's ey, but the money of the Government. At this Enfi Cooper jumped upin an extjted manner, and Was about replying, when a point of order was raised #nd sustained by the Speaker, thus putting an end to affair. This matter lasted only & short while, ereated intense excitement, Kelley is & good tulker, and uses gentlemanly language. Cooper, oo the other hand, i8 no talker, but im- one as being of the number that 8s lief fight as eat. When these scencs had ended, Mr. Steven's fReconstruction bill was ealled np, and Mr. Raymond made an hour’s speech on the subject. His remarks were listened to with sttention, but, as usual, were of such a nature as not. %0 be easily comprehended, and he was generally so Jong in getting to a point, that he failed to impress ‘his disteners with the force he might otherwlse have @one. He took ground agsinst the bill, and talked guestioning the right of Congress to pass it. Judge Bhellabarger of Ohio followed Raymond in & most excellent epeech. He made a strong’ appeal tn favor of a recognition of the rights of the negro, and favored the pending bill, or ose, and to the utter disappointment of the immense crowds present, stated he would not make » specch, as he saw the majority of the House was against the bill, and he would welieve any further delay of legislation by $o-morrow, moving to lay the bill on the table. It ‘was Mr. Btevens’s intention to have made a sgecch in support of his bill, but he is in such feeble bealth that he did not dare venture the fatigue ann excite- ment. It is thought that the bill will not be tabled, bat will be passed with some modifications. The Senate Finance Committee 'had under consid- eration to-day the Gold bill, but without coming to sny conclusion, and the bill was postponed until to- morrow, when it will receive a favorable report.. RandalVs bill substituting legal tenders for National bauk notes and establishing a sinking fund, was again under consideration to-day by the Committe on Baoking sud Currency. The bill having heen pre- sented, printed, and recommitted to the Commit- $oe, it was carefully considered at length, and Mr, Mr. Randall intends to moye its early consideratton.

It 4y said that Gen. Thomas, in turning over the lar 46 amount of railroad property to the Rebel 0w sers immediately after the collapse af the Rebellien, did so under express orders from President Johns 4n, Th e Spanish Government is understood to have re mived very kindly the overtures of the Becretary “af Htate for mediation in the South Awerican war. "That Government, however, had no official infor- metion of the result of the previous tender of media- tion made hy Great Britain and France. The Committee on Invalid Pensions, throngh Mr. Porham, its Chairman, made a réport to-day on the House Pension bill referred to, from which it appears the Commissioner of Pensions, in reply to the ques- tion as #o what amount of money will be required to give pensions to the surviving.soldiers of ‘the war of 1812, and to thewidows of such as are deccased, who are in necessitons cireumstances, says 527,654 soldrers were enlisted, and 200.916 served €0 days or more. Three-eighths of this last number were supposed to be alivein 1858, The number of surviving widows is estimated at 23,190 ; this makeg the total number of survivors 134,538, but it must be remembered that the table leaves ot of the estimate 147,200 soldiers who served only one month, and 85538 who served over one month, but assumed to be less than 60 days, which woald add, by;the same calculation a8 in the table, 87,277 soldiers, and 18,182 widows, making a grand total of 259,007 as alive in 1859, The bill under consideration gives pensions to all alike, irvespective of the length of service. The Commis- sioner estimates that the total amount of pensions for eight years would be $77,760.000. This includes only the amount to be paid to pensionersunder the bill. Add to this the expense of disbnrsement, at §150,000 per annum for eight years, $1,200,000, and $300,000 esti- mated for extra expense in the Pension Burean for say five years, $1,500,000, and the aggregate is $80,- 400,000 ; $17,280,000 of which would be due in 1867, Should the bill hecome a law, the expenditures would, in the opinion of the Committee, be much Jarger than this estimate. From the tacts presented, the Committee come to the‘following conclusion: Whole number of officers, soldiers, and. sailors, who ions under this bill, 150,000; anunual expenditure, $14,400,000; aggregate expendi- ture, from average of 12 years, $172,600,000; Commis- sioner’s estimate for expense of agents, $1,200,000; extra expense for Pension Bureau, for gay five years, $15,000, haking an aggregate of $175,500,000. The Committee commend the several facts reported to would be entitled to pen: the consideration of the House, The War Department haa directed the immediate forwarding of troops to Forts Caspar and Phil. Kear- ney, Dakotah Territory, and to Camp Douglas, Utah Territory, to protect settlers and emigrants, and to prevent the recurrence of the recent Indian ontrages in that country. The troops, which will number about 600, are intended to fill up the regiments al- ready on duty at the points npmed. The National Academy of Science is in session at the Capitol, Prof. Henry in the Chair. Distinguished scientific gentlemen from various parts o try are present.
