Capital. |Special Correspondence of the Bex.! W ASHINGTON, June 26. The days of the Forty-third Con- | gress are numbered. T )-IGorrow afternoon will witness the deser- tion of the “Wind Cave,” as the “Frog Bank” will dissipate into thin air. Representatives and Sen- ators will hie themselves to their | war for the coming fall elections. The Congressmen are now studying up the points upon which to make | eapital in the coming campaign, | back again. The civil rights bill has been una- ble to keep above water, and has met an ignominious death. The civil service bug bear has met a similar fate. | A currency bill has finally passed both houses, as recommended by the conference committee. While | it does not meet fully the necessi- | ties of the west, it affords a partial | relief 1o the stringent state of the | money market of the West and | South. The volume of greenback currency is fixed at $352,000,000, | and the reserves are released | for circulation. Lastly, provides for the redistribution_of the currency, | and for free banking. This willgi to the West additional banking pri- | vileges to the extent of some $30;- 000,000 Thie land tax bill, which promised such good results to the depieted ex- chequer of the State, in compellin the payment of delinquent taxes | from the railroads, and which pas- | sed the House by the personal and untiriug effort of Judge Crounse, has virtually been defeated ir the Sen- | a te, | A Senate bill has been reported | by the committee in place of the | House bill which absolves the U. P. | ana branches, from, and_obligations al- ready incurred; requires the govern- ment to pay the costof surveys,and simply requires the roads to pay | their taxes in the future. The tenor | of the Senate bill bears upon the | face of it, legislation inthe interestof the railroads, instead of the inter- est of the government, and the treasury of the State of Nebraska. Its is quite questionable in either House. The great event of the season in the House was the speech of Ben Butler upon the § born contracts and the Custom House frauds. The announcement that “old Ben” was to “letloose the dogs of war” filled the galleries to suffocation. Every member of the House was in his ‘seat, and when the champion of invective broke loose, the entire House was all at- tention. No such scathing deunci- atjon, nor such tearless onslaught against an pnemy has been made upon the floor of the House in many a day. He denounced in open terms the perjury and enormcus frauds upon the revenue committed by the firm of Phelps, Dodge & Co., the senfor mewpber of which was President of the Young Men's Christian Association of New York One of thefr frauds was long prac- ticed under a Jaw whigh ng Enw-d several years ago, and whigh was intended to encourage & taste for art in our country. For this purpose, stytugry and works of art were 0 “ duty free,” and immediately Messrs, Phelps, Dodge & Co. began to import Goy- desses of Liberty,” The Father of his Country, and other illustrious heroes done up in lead ; and imme- diately upon their arrival went into the melting pot, and were quickly transformed jnto pig lead. What an inglorious fate for the (Foddess of Liberty and her assoclates. Qd in frequently referred to himself as *old cock-eye,” and challenged his enemigs to enter the areng with him. Sanborn is evi dently 8 friond of Benjamin, and he considers that the anborn inves- tigation was a stab at him, Butler, by his encmies. Foster, who bas heen his oppor nent, was completely demoralized, and Butler had read the letter which Foster had written concern- ing him, and which Butler had ob- tained possession of in some unac- countable manner. The galleries, chegred snd applauded Butler, and the speaker thréatengd to alear them if any further demonstrations wi made. Butler has the reputation of standing by his friends, though the heavens fall, and single handed, he floored all opposition in this matter. That little sprite and congression- al aggravation, Vinnic Ream, has again got on & rampage, umi be- Slegzed Congress to let her bust some- tody to the tune of several thou- sand dollars. This time it is likely | to be Admirg! Farmagut. It would be & national blessing, and saving to the treasury, if some one | would bust her off the stage of action. Nebraska is well represented at the National Capitol at present. Among the new arrivals, safe and well, are Messrs, J. Millard, W. A. Brown and J. B. Newman. The latter gentleman from Nebraska | City. little_incident oocurred at the | National Hotel, 3 few days since, | which Is worthy of note here. We | had just stepped Into the barber | shop and inquired of the proprietor | | if he thought we had hirsuite enough to entjtle us to a ten cent | shave, when we were attracted by several pretty loud expmu@ona to the opposite side of the room. Here we found our friend , gesticul ting wildly, and snathamatizing somebody in language not found | in the commandments; in his hand | 'was an old silk hat, which had seen better days; he held it up ta our ; we ventured to enquire what's up Judge, what's the matter, what's who, what's up, whats the matter > “Why some lunk head has carried of my hran new sili hat, and left this 3!11 dated concern. Why the confounded idiot; why just Jook | here.” And the hat went down uver his eyebrows, on down past his | nose and rested upon his shoulders, ‘We could see nothing of that pellu- | cid countenance, hut when the ahapeau was agajn, we saw 8 face boiling with 1 " that " | me another, T will | at 1113 bid for “Why., Styngan, the man cwned that hat is a bi d, how it js possible for such a head as | that to wear my hat I don't see T | Stamped, Japanned and band.

Well, Judge, I mus fess that is unfortunate, but I don’t see any way out of the difficulty but to put that hat away, save it will keep, the progress of human events makes great changes in the existence of men, and the time may come when your ecranium will fill ce of that hat; in correctly, it is not far d you are a candidate for the next Con- nd if this be so, before the nextelection you will have a swellcd head that will make the circumfer- ence of that hat without doubt.” The Judge vanished. We took a little balm of gilead on our chin. | In come a dignified gertleman that | might have been a Congressman; possibly he had raised potatoes and practiced law in the vieinity of Fort Calhoun; but then T won’t swear to it. Atany ratehe had alittle mat- ter of importance to attend toat that | moment, he wanted to know “what little puppet had changed hats with him, “Why the man that couldn’t wear 8 bigger hat than that hadn’t got a thimble full of brains.” I wouldn’t give a pen-wiper for a thousand such ; what the d—l am I todo. Why the confounded thing won't cover my bump of esteem, and I am afraid to lei the sun strike on my bump of vemeration, | for then T would not _appreciate the Kkindness of my friends when th send me back to Congress again. Well, I suppose I shall bave to try send this out to rick,” I guess it will just about fithim.” Your correspondent walk- ed away, meditating upon the old adage that “great minds sometimes differ.” STYNGAN.
