WasuixroN, January 19.—Mr. | Carlislo succeoded in securing an eve- ning nto-morrow for the con- sideration of the senate bills on the private calendar. There are about eighty of such bills. After a long discussion and at- tempie 1 amendment, the naval appro- priation bill was finally repoted to {the houss without amendment, and passed. Seven of the appropriation bills have now passod tho house of repre entatives. The fortification bill s in the scnate, a8 are also the pevsion bill and Indian bill. The consular bill is in confere: Tho army aud military academy bills have been returned from the senate with amendmeats. The naval bill will go to the senato to-moizow. The post- office hill was reported to-day, a: recommitted, although some changes are yet to bo made in it by the appro- priation committee. Other bilia to be reported are the legislative, the Dia- trict of Cclumbia, the river and har- bor, the deficiency and the agricul- tural bill, The contested case of Boynton va. Loring, from the Sixth district of Massachusetts, then came up. All of the members of the committee on | elections, except Mr. Weaver, report- od in favor of Mr. Loring retaining his seat. Mr. Wesver reports in favor of Boynton. Tt was agre=d that the Qiscusston_should be confined to two hours aud @ hall. Mr. Loring was first assigued to the floor, and occu- pied au hour aud a half. = His epsech a learned production in deteuss of the policy that Massachusetts he.2 pursued with regard to eduealic 1 and sufirage, but it had no bearing or: the cause under consideration. The history of Massachusetts was reviewed and the state and people were highly eulogized. Mr. Weaver obtained the floor, but pending further discossion the house at4:35p. m. took s recess until 7:30 |p.m. The evening scesin was de- voted exclusively to busineas reported from the District of Columbia com- mittee. SENATE, The chair laid before the senate & communication from the secretary of state relating to the Stevens collection of Franklin papers, now offered for sale in Londo Reforred to the li brary committee. Mr. Conkling called up his resolu- tion calling on the secretary of the in- terior for nformation in relation to the organization of the censas bureau, and it was agreed to, Mr. McDonald called up & resolu- tion submitted by him in February last, for a standing committee on wo- man’s rights, aud briefly advocated its adoption. Mr. Conkling asked if the senator from Indisna proposed to raise a per- manent committee to take its place on the list of standing committees. He had supposed from tha senator's well known ardor for the cause that he had expected the petitions would be granted, and the whole thing ended. He hoped the resolation would be modified eo as to provide for a sclect committee, so that when the sun went down on the last day of the session resolution might be reached [Sli applause from ladies in the gallery]. Mr. McDonald said the senator had misunderstood his bjection. Hehad no desire to postpone relief to the fu- ture. He simply proposed that on behalf of the citizens of the United es they should have an organ—a tribunal to which they could apply in matters pertaining to legislation. ~As long as the human family lasts there would be rizhts of women to be con- sidered. A bill to provide forthe attackment of lsnd to Indi on the varions reservations, and to extend the pro- tection of the laws of the states and territories over the Indians, and for other purpses, csme up ss the regu- larorder. Mr Coke sdvocated the bill, and said it had the support of the scc. retary of the interior, the committee on Indian aflairs and every man con- nected with the administration of Ta- dian affairs, as well as tne Ind themselves. Mr. Vest moved an amendment of the seventh section, which exempts the entire Indian Territory from the operations of the bill, limiting exemp- tion to the five civilized nations. He urged that it was impossible to civil- ize the Indiane while they were no- mads, and he destred the provisions of the bill to spply to the thirty-five tribes or bands that had been located in that terrltory. Mr. Teller argoed that there wss an understanding of Indian character in congress and elsewhere, that all In- diaus were considered alike, whereas there were civilized and savage, good and bad Indians. When the Ute bill wes before the senate he had endeav- ored to show this difference, and I bored for the interests of both whites and Indians. But on the roll call there were but sixteen senators who voted with him. He said he could se- cure a kind of treaty with the Indians by pursuing the policy of the govern- ment and corrupting & few of them. There is not a wild Indian who knows what a fee stmple is. He would admit that when an Indi takes land in severalty you have got him, but he must be & clvilized In dian before he will take land in that way andstand upon it. He denoun ed the bill as sentimental and non- sensical, and capable of dolng Do good and liable to domuch harm. Mr. Coke euggested Mr. Teller in the position of the juror who found the eleven contumacious, and in the course of his remarks paid a flatter- ing compliment to the Indian policy under its present administration.
