WASHINGTON. Housk. Epecial Dispatch to The Ben. Wasuivorox, January 15.—After the commitice had been culled woraing, Mr. Wood moved committve on the funding bill, and with a view of getting along with the 1 bilh, he moved a limited debste on the firet section, and all smendments thereto to ten 1 aute. All attexapts to extand the t ms were fraitleas and the motion of Mr. Wood was adopted avd then the house went itto com- mittee, with Mr._Covert, of New York, ‘in the chair. The pending question was upon Mr. Anderson’s mendmenta £ suthoriza the iseue of curreucy notcs not bearing _interest, and for the retirement of national bank notes. Mr. Price inforred that Mr. An. derson would scsomplish nothing, bat he would simply ex change ous Uhited States uote for ancther. Mr. Andeison srgued that it would relievs the government of the expense 1o which it w1 now put by the nation- al banks avd would save the payment of interest vn $343,000,000. Me. Frye gave notios cf & substitute for the section ¥ increase the rate cf intorast to 8} per ceat., and to isne aehortbona. The question wahthen taken on Mr, Andereot’s amendment and it was'ref sotod—yoas 43,nays 108, il's awendment, offered day, imporing an income tax, and toapply the money arising from the tax, 1o the payment of interest on the bonds, was decided to be out of ordor,because it wadnot germain to the section. Mr. Price, of Yows, offered &n amendment to repeal the stawmp lax on bauk chocks. It wat raled out cn apoint of order. ane, of Marsland, offered to anthorizo the fasie rf bonds of treasary cerirficates of de- nominations not fess thau ten doll.rs od not exceeding fifty million lars, bearing interest at 3} per cent, and payable n ten years, and not more than ten million of bonds tes shall bs radeemod in auy one fiscal year. Mr. Wood made a point of order agains the sabstitute becacse it charged a rate of intercat which was already fixed by tho committoe. The chair sustaiwed the point of or- der. Mr. McLane appaaled from the de- cision of the chair, and a discussion was arising, when, at the suzgestion of Mr. Randall, the point of order was withdrawn and the vote was al lowed on Mr. McLanc'ssubstitate. 1t was rejocted—yess 97, nays 108 Mr. Fryo said his substitute em: braced substantially the same prop: tions as were contained in McLane's, and he regarded the vote just taken as an indication of the eeutiment of ttehoase. Ho would nct. therefore, ask a vote on his substitute. The first section was then passed. Mr. Carlitle, of Kentucky, moved 10 add the following to the third scc- tion: “The socrotary of the troasury is hersby authorised and directed to tablo rules and regulations to act into offect, pro that the expenses of preparing, issu- ing, advertising and disposing of the bonda shall not exceed one fourth of one per cent.” Mr. Olaflin, of Mass., moved to make the amount one-half of one per cent. He did not believe the boods could be placed for a less amount. M. Carlisle said that one-fourth of one per cont. wonld give s cost of 1, 750,000 fo= placing the bonds. Mr. Clafiin's amendment was reject- d and Mr. Caclisle's amendment was adopted. Before action could bo taken on the amendment by Mr. Carlisle, Mr. Weaver moved that the commitcee rise. Mr. Wood said ho hoped to com- plete the bill to-day, at least In the committee of the whole, but as many members wanted to have Mr. Carlisle’s amendment explained, he did not op- pose the motion, and the committeo rose and the house adjourned.

Special Dispateh to The oo, WasaIxatoN, January 17, 1 a. m. —A lengthy articlo has been going the rounds of the prass, and recently appeared in one of the city papers here, anncuncing the etartling prediction that thero was great danger of the world coming to an end some.time during this year. The prophesy was alittle more definite than the famous prophesy of Mother Shipton,for it de tailed the mavner in which the earth’s Jestruction was to be accomplished, This was in brief; that thero is at present in the ualverse a body, small insize, by reason of its distance from the sun, but almost inconceivabl; dense by reagon of tho smount of m ter which ia crowded into_it, which is proceeding directly toward the sun. Some time during this yesr, the pre- diction alleged, this great mass would fall into our luminsry, and the im- mense heat ruddeuly generated thero- by would destroy all the higher forms of life on the carth. It was very soberly tated. The people at tho poles, al- though their temperature would no oubt bo ircreated, might possi bly survive this terrible heat, and thus repeoplo the esrth. The event thus detailsd was called a cataclysm. It was either true or not true, and to eettlo the yuestion, which certainly posseszes considerable indiridual in- terest, a reporter has been obtalning views of the government astronomers on the subject. Prcf. Holt, though able to discover Mar's satellite, has not yet found the comet, which ia to plsy an important part in the destruc-' tion of the world. ‘Tt i the first time I bave been made aware of the impending danger,” he sald, as he tlanced over the article which the re- porter showed him. “But can there be any foundation for such a prediction?” “Only in ths, that T have scen somewhere astatement that the comet of 1812 was to retarn about this time, but we knew nothing ceriain. Indeed itis impossible to know anything t comets. We can only vo euch a very small portion of their immenee orbits, that we cannot estimate their return with precision, but the likelibood of tta falling into the sun, or striking the earth, even if it did return, is infinitely emall.” nately none of the i yuates werein the rflhniucn‘ Cn2 Baguax nn.vl Sr. Louss, Jacuary 15.
