MURDERS—MR. WENTWORTI'S COMMITIER AT WORK— PERSONAL. BY TELEGRAPE 10 THE TRIBUNE. WASHINGTON, Thursday, Feb. 2 In the Senate to-day very little business acted. A few hours were spent in discussin bridge the Mississippi at Clinton, Towa, which was finally passed. The bill to transfer the Tndia x];n- rean o the War Department then came ap, and, with- out taking any action on it, along Executive session was held, after which the dinner recess was taken. Animmense number of nominations to office were disposed of in the Executive session. g The evening session in the Senate was ocenpied in Qiscnssing the Indian Appropriation bill. No conela- glon was reached, and the Senate adjourned at 9: The proceedings in the House to-day were devoted mostly to financial matters, and wereof a very im- portant and interesting character. The expansion- ists and contractionists were out in fnll foree, and fonght one another with great vigor. Politics had nought todo with the debate, the Democrats all being split np and divided on the question under dis- oussion. The Western men went solidly for expan- sion, while the Middle States nd Eastern men were dlvided, but mostly for contraction. Mr. Hooper, from the Committec on Ways and Means, veported, n obedience to & former resolution of the House, & bill to provide ways and means for the payment of the Compound Interest Notes, and to prevent a further contraction of the cuirency. The first sec- tion authorizes and directs the Secretary toreceive on Qeposit Componnd Interest Notes, with ac crued inter- est, as a temporary loan, with interest at the rate of 8 65-100 per cent per annum, principal and interest to be payable on s:id demand, said notes to co: itute part of the r ve fund of the National Banks, pro- wided for by the act to provide a ional currency, provided that not less than two-fifths of the entire rescrve of such banks shall consist of United States Legal Tender currency, and the amount of such tem- rary eertificates shall not be beyond $100,000,000, e second section prohibits the Secretary of the Treasury from retiring or canceling United States ewrrency notes, known as greenbacks, during the ourrent year. Mr Hooper supported his bill in a very able speech. Stevens followed, and moved to strike out the first scction, and insert in lien thereof the following: “That the Secretary of the Treasury is hereby anthorized and dirccted to redeem the compound interest with the accrued in- terest thereon, and to issue therefrom United States Legel Tender notes.” 1t was over this amendment of Btevens that a long wrangling discussion on Finamces occurred hetween members. The banking members bad the floor, and the Western expansionists and Eastern contractionists consumed over three hours time in trying to convince one another that ea was right and the other was wrong. Allison, Priee, Randall (Pa.), Hill, Ross, and Niblack did the talking for the expansion party, while they were opposed in debate by Hooper, Pomeroy, Darling, Dodge, Rice, Dawes, Dawson, Eldridge, and Boyer. At one time the debate got very spirited. Randall,an ultra Dem- ocrat, was busily engaged speaking in favor of Btevens'’s amendment, surrounded by a large number of Western Radicals and Democrats ‘who were prompting him. Opposite hins was Hooper, the center of a large group of Eastern Radicals and Pemocrats, all of whom were opposed to the Amend- ment. Politics were ignored, quite a contrast with the debate of the last ten days, while the Recon- struction bill was before the Honse. There was no affiliation between Democrats and Republicans in debate then. Stevens's amendment was finally ndopted by the large vote of ® to On the possage of the Vbill the Yeas were %5 and Nays 84. All the Western members voted in the affirmative, with the exeception of Blow (Rep., Mo.), Dumont (Rep., Ind.), Eldridge (Dem Wis.). Finck (Dem., Olio), Harding (Dem., Ky Julian (Rep., Ind.), Kerr (Dem., Ind.), Le $Dem., Ohio), Niblack (Dem., Ind.), Price (Rep., Jowa), Spalding (Rep., Ohio), and Wentworth (Rep. ell.) The Eastern members all voted in the negative. ilson (Rep., Pa.), Barker (Rep., Pa.), Kelloy (Rep., Pa.), Miller (Rep., Pa.), Stevens (Rep., Pa.), Hub- bell (Pem., N. Y.), Goodyear (Dem., N.Y.), Van Aernam (Rep., N. Y.), and Starr (Rep., N. J.), voted in the affirmative. Au attempt to Jay on the table a motion to reconsider the vote wus defeated by 56 to 88. This showed the full strength of the ultra con- tractionists. The second scetion of the bill was the objectionable portion, and it was evident, unless it was stricken out, the wounld fail. So the sceond section was stricken out by a vote of 59 to The bill, then consisting of cleven amendments for the first section, was passed by a vote of 05 to 6, Bergen (Dem., N. Y.), Goodycar (Dem., N. Y.), Hub} bell (Dem,, N. Y.), Van Aernam (Dem., N. Y.), Bout- well (Rep., Mass.), Drandagee Rep., Conn.), Lynch (Rep., Me.). My (Rep., Pa.), Perham (Rep., Me.), Randall (Den, Pa.), Starr (Re N. J.), Stevens (Rep., Pa.), aver (Rep., Pa.), Warner {Rep., Conn.), and Wilson (Rep., Pa.) were the only members from the Eastern and Middle States who voted for the bill. The absentees were Conkling (Rep., N. Y.), Cook (Rep., 11L.), Dixon (Rep., R. L), Dumont (Rep., Ind.), Eckley ( . Ohio), Garfield, Rep., Ohio), Hale (Rep., N. Y.), Hubbard (Re . Y.) Hubbard (Rep. Jowa), Jones (Dem., N.Y.), Lawrence (Re ) Loan (Rep., Mo.), Marstou (Re . L), McCulloch (Dem., Md.), Morrill (Rep., Vt.), Newell (Rep., N. Price (Rep., Towa), Rogers (Dem,, N. J.), Sloan (Rep., Wis.), Stillwell (Rep., Ind.), J. L. Thomas (Rep., Md, ), Van Homn (Rep., Mo.), Ward, (Dem., Ky.), Wash- burne (Rep., ML), and Wright (Dem., N. J.) Tho bill as it passed the House will in all probability pass the Senate, although when the bill was before the Benate Finance Connnittee the same proposition wus voted down unanimously by Committee. The slow and monotonous consideration of the Tax bill was continued in the evening session of the House. Those who thiok the qnestion of impeacliment has been given upand will die in comwmittee, are greatly mistaken, and will be startled one of these days when the Committee reports. It is well known that 1,1867. trans- « a bill to @ very large number of persons from all parts of the vountry have been subpenaed to appear before the Judiciary Committee to give evidence in matters which it is thonght will Lelp impeachwent. There are persons here now awaitinga call from the Com- mittee to testify as to the restoratisu of Government plantations in the Southern States. These planta- tions were seized by our Government as abandoned property at the time the United States troops oc- enpied the country in which they were sitnated, and were leased ont to persons by the Government. It Is charged that President Johnson restored tothe original owners, whe were pardoned Rebels, a number of these plantations, at a time when the crops of the lossees were under cultivation, thus ignoring contracts which the Government had pledged, and producing Josses to Union men who were working them. [t is said Gen. Fullerton, who is now here, is to ap- pear before the Committee in regard to this matter, He was in command of the Freedmen’s Bureau in Louisiana, aud carried out the orders of the Presi- dent in retarning these lands to Rebels. Mr. Con- way of New York, predecessor of Fullerton as agent of the Freedmen's Burcau in Louisiana, is also in this city, and appearcd before the Judiciary Com- wittee to-day. Secretary Stanton was also before the same Committee to-day.

The sentence was afterward commnuted to imprisonment for life by the President, and they were sent to the Dry Tortugas. Soon after arviving there they were sent to Yort Delaware, and, on arrival there, were released on awrit of habeas corpus, and are now at large. Gens. ‘I'homas, Sheridan, Sickles, Wood, Baird, and S field were all examined by the Committee, and gave evidence as to the con nof affairs in the South- ern States. Tne prisoners were released at the in- stance of Secretary Browning, whe received £1,000 for his inflnence with the President. A pefition was sent to the President calling for the release of the prisoners on hus *“ avowed polic Among the names signed to it were A, T Stephens, Herschel V. John- son, and Gov. Orr. The veport of the Committee finds the prisoners guilty of the murder, and rccom- mends such action in relation to the Southern Stat as will prevent a similar oceurvence hereafter. The Special Commitiee appointed on the motion of Mr. Wentworih to investigate the conduet of certain Congressmen in arranging a compromise with the President, held their first mecting to-day, all the members of the Committee, Messrs, Wentworth, Van Acrnam, and Glosshrenner, being present. Mr. W den, the newspaper correspondent and alleged Presi- dential Congress go-between, was before the Com- mittee forthree hours, and underwent arigid e amination. Mr. Este has been snbpenaed, and will De examined {o-morrow. The Senate Military Conmumittee had under consid- exation to-day, and passed upon a large number of military nominations. The econsideration on many of the appointments has heen suspended until the Committee can fully investigate the private character of the nominees, as it is the intention to confivm only those whose moral character is beyond dispute. The President has had presented to him for his ap- proval the bill to regulate the fenure of certain ciyil officers, and the bill to provide for the more efficient government of the Rebel States. It is said that Seeretary MeCulloch will shortly issue a cireular notifying the public that the Depart- ment is now ready to receive and convert into Five-Twenty bonds the Seven-Thirty bonds issued under the act of Angust, 1864, and due next August, and also pay the interest thereon. This is done in order that the bonds may be r 1 and couverted daily, and not all be presented at the same time when due.

Mr. HOOPER urgm-d that while the Government would have to pay four or five millig interest, if these eer- tificates were issned, the people would lose ten times the amount by the inflation of the currency.
