The nendlnir business, cnminir nvpr f mm Friday night's session, was the Senate bill granting a pension of one hundred dollars per month to tbe widow of Gen James B.

I Mr. Chandler, of Indiana, opposed the bill, as still further extending tbe liberal discrimination in favor of tbe widows of ifflcers. and against the widows of private soldiers. It was time that tbe House should call a halt, in the 'enactment of special ' pensions. The officers of the Army had not made all of the sacrifices; the men of tbe musket had marte sacrifices necessary to save the life of the Union.

Mr. Randall eulogized the services of General Rickettsin Mexico, and stattd that the widow who would be the recipient of tbe pension had rendered service as a nurse for many months among the Union prison ers of JUbny prison, Mr. O'Neill, of Pennsylvania, thought that no more gallant man lived than (Jen manity and kindness which Mrs Ricketts had always displayed towards veterans of tbe war. . i Tbe amendment was adopted, and the bill as amended passed.

Mr. -McMillin nnene d hla aneenh with the declaration that next- in importance to mo question or. personal liberty waa the question of how and how much people shall be taxed. As it pertained to taxation it waa no new question ; it was with us in the beginning of our government and would be with us to its close. He who advocated the present tariff favored a tariff, not for revenue, not for protection merely, but a tariff for i a surplus and tariff for trusts We were confronted with an anomalous state of affairs. ' We had . locked un in the Treasury beyond tbe demands of the gov ernment, about f i4u.wu.wo, or $3 oo for every inhabitant. What was the cause of this overflowing treasury f What was the cause of this accumulation, - beside which that of alt other oountriea sinks into insig nificance f i What was the cause of the hoarding in the Treasury more monev than was gathered into the treasury of any mon archy, kingdom or despotism mder the sunT The answer to all these Questions was, the people have been taxed bevond the reasonable demands of the government. Hoobery oi them under tne ioims of taw nas been perpetrated, and to-day they stand moneyless, the tax-gatherer still staring them in the face, and demanding relief at the hands of Congress. - - tie congratulated the country that we have reached a point where there ia a fair chance for consideration . of a bill look ing to a reduction of taxes on the necessa ries of 1 life. Heretofore the favorite method pursued in the killing of - tariff Dins wss either by refusing to consider them or by moving to strike out the enact ing clause. But Congress was fortunate in having before it now a bill which it dare not ref use to consider, and of which Mts members dare not be rash enough to strike oat the enacting clause. - He referred tb and criticized the action of a former Con gress in shifting its responsibility for tar ff rerorm upon a commission. The Congreaa that appointed tbe commission, finding tbe rate of taxation averaged about 43 per cent., under pretense of revising it left it so that it had since reached 47 ner cent . and the people hive had no relief. It was higher to-day than it was anv time during the late civil war. Worn out with waiting, disgusted with the hesitation of a Congress that misrepresented the best interests of tbe country, they freed . themselves from those who appointed the commission and refused to heed its recommendation, and seat here a 'different class of representatives, and to tbe white House a man of a different political party. uomo-enting on the surplus, he said we are drawing monev' from commerce and locking it up in the Treasury at such a rate that it is only a question of time when a stringency win set in. panics begin, and ruin follow.! We are robbing not onlv commerce of its life blood, but the people of the means of paying their taxes to their governments municipal, county. . State and Federal and their debts to their credi tors. All sorts of jobs are proposed to Congress and all sorts of jobbers are flock ing here. There is nothing conceivable more corrupting, to a government than a plethoric treasury. It revives stale de mands, and encourages the prosecution of matters long set at rest. Uuotmg , from what he termed the able ana characteristic speech of the gentleman from Pennsylvania, (Kelley), demanding the total repeal of the internal revenue ss tern, he declared that the Republican party was responsible for that system, and com mented on the fact tbat when that gentle man was I chairman of the Wajs and Means Committee, he did not repeal inter nal revenue taxation. - - Mr. Ktlley admitted tbat the Democratic party bad not enac ed the law, but declared tbat it bad made it necessary for the Re publican party which remained in Con grets during the war, to provide tbe sinews for tbat war, ana thus iorcea that party to resort to internal taxes and all the hard ships resulting from them. Mr. McMulin replied ; Tbe gentleman not only inaugurated tbe internal taxes of which he complained, but he put the tax on railroads and incomes and capital and deposits of banks But these latter have been removed, and those which tne gentle man said woraea narosmps naa neer been removed The gentleman had not done tbe very thing which be said the Dem ocratic party was responsible for not do ing. He (McMillin) remembered the gen tleman coming before tbe uouse ana say ing that be favored the repeal of the sys tem, but that his caucus bad determined otherwise; and he had bowed his neck to tbe yoke, j Applause on the Democratic side .

Mcminn wss in term pica oy Mr. Dingley with a question whether that commerce j had not fallen off from 1855 to 1861 prior to the enactment of the high tariff? M Mr. McMillin admitted thai there had been a falling eff, but he declared that ow ing to tbe present high tariff, commerce bad fallen into a f state of utter decay, lie in quired whether Mr. Dingley favored the policy wnicn permuted tne unuea dibits to seize the ship of a citizen if that ship wss bought abroad and brought into a home port f t - Mr. JJingiey repnea mat ne iavorea tne policy inaugurated by Washington, of con? fining American registers to vessels built in this country. Applause on the Republi can side 1 i i Mr. MtMilun suggested that tne gentle man declined, by statute, to allow a citizen to buy a ship abroad, or by other statutes, known as high -tariff laws, to allow him to build them at home. In tbe further course of bis speech Mr. McMillin ref em d to James Russell Lowell as a distinguished member of the Republican party a refer ence . which! was received with derisive laughter from tbe 'Republican side Mr McMillin remarked tbat Lowell had been a representative of tbe last administration to the Court of St. James. Benedict Arno d was a mainr-general in tbe Continental army." was Mr. Kelley's comment ( ' Mr. McMillin then concluded his speech amid loud, applause from his party col leagues, .j It , Mr Burrows, of Michigan, was the next speaker. Our tariff on imports, he said, was to-dvv confessedly protective, in that it was levied; not for revenue only, but to encourage American industry and pro'ect American labor. One wing of the Demo cratic party, Under the leadership of Presi denounced it as vicious and illogical, and I . . . lt , . ..--soa bntnn. constitutional. On the contrary the Re- publican party believed in a protective ta riffthat in levying duties on imports tne revenue should not alone be considered hut that these duties should be so adjusted as to give encouragement to American cap- ltai ana employment ro American isuur. The Republican party insisted -that tbe present protective system should not be disturbed except so far as might be neces sary - to correct its incongruities and harmonize its provisional If Congress fol lowed the lead of the President in his bold declarations and secured a reduction by such revision of the tariff as he proposed, (leaving untouched as be suggested the in ternal revenue system), notgonly would tbe protective system be destroyed, but the nation would be out on tbe highway of free trade. As members were free traders or protectionists the bill would be ap nroved or condemned. The pending mea sure stood without a parallel in the history af American - legislation. - Conceived in darkness, brought forth in secrecy, its pa rentage carefully concealed, it was at last laid at the door of the committee of Ways and Means.where the majonty took it up as tenderly as though it were a legitimate off spring, 'hurriedly brought it into the House to be adopted by tne uemocrauc party ana nursed bv the harlot of free trade. . .In this contest the Republican party took the side of protection, and would re sist to the uttermost any attempt to cripple American Industry, destroy American capital or pauperize American labor. Tbe eras of protection had been eras of pros perity . Erse of - freer- trade had . been eras of depression' and - disaster. In the exuberance of the President's zeal for free trade, ha, wanted - the? ti tiro 1 nation" secured by a revision of the tariff, but even me iree iraaera or tne juemocrauc party lacked the courage to advanee on that line and - occupy this - advanced position. Efforts ' were being made persistently to induce the American farmer to believe that a protective tariff was hostile to his interes s. -Mr. Burrows argued at length. As be closed his speech he was greeted with long continued applause, and when he took his seat ne was warmly congratulated by his party colleagues. .- : : . The committee then rose and the House adjourned.- . . ;- : '-'t"'':-;:-"'.T'-"-rv-- ;4' V In the House this evening, at the close of the tariff debate, Mr Reed, of Maine, said that it was well known to the House that efforts had been made to reach an agree ment as to the time to be given- for debate on the Tariff bill. He stated the Republi can position ten days on their side, night sessions not to be included in time and re cited the proceedings in committee and bis understanding of the temporary arrange ment that had been made for continuance of the debate ' during to-day and to-mor-i row.-: He asked Mr. Mills to fix upon some time ' for debate, and - suggested that len days be allowed to a side, with so many evening sessions in addition as the House might be disposed to have. Such length of time would be fit not only to tbe impor tance of the bill, but the circumstances un der which it had been presented. . There had been no consideration of tbe bill; no publio bearing on the Republican side; no publio hearings on tbe part of members, the interests of whose districts were concerned. ' If it should turn out that it was not necessary to prolong the discus sion for so long a time as waa suggest ed, the debate might be shortened: It had been claimed by gentlemen on the other side that there had been an informal agreement in committee tbat these two days, with evening sessions, should ' be given up to the bill, but so far as be was concerned be did not remember having en tered into such an sgreement. Mr. - Breckearidge, of Kentucky, held that a foraa.nl arrangement to that effect bad been entered into by (he committee, while other; members of the committee sustained Mr. Reed's understanding of the committee's arrangement -' Mr. Mills, in answer to Mr Reed's prop osition, urged.' in favor of night sessions, that the discussion would go into the pub lic press. It was not necessary to have the galleries packed. People would know it. There could be no Just reason Why the dis cussion could not proceed at night as well as in the dy time. However, be would be glad to meet the gentleman to-morrow in the committee room to make another effort for agreement , In the meantime be would move a recess until 8 o'clock. Mr. Dunham, of Illinois, interposed a motion to adjourn, which .was defeated by a vote by tellers. ! The yeas and. nays were taken on a mo-, tion to take a recess, resulting: Yeas 131, nays 13.- -- i L .. - - ;:. . No quorum appearing. Mr. Mills said that as there seemed to be no disposition on the oher side of the House to proceed with the discussion be Would move to adjourn. The motion was agreed to and th'e House accordingly, at 6 o'clock, adjourned. SENATE Washington. April 25. The motion to refer the President's message was taken up and Mr. Voorhees addressed tbe Senate thereon; .- - - I ' Reading his speech from manuscript, Mr Voorhees said tbat the issues which tbe two great parties would present to the American people at tbe ballot box next No vember were plainly laid down. On tbe principle proclaimed by Jefferaoa, that er -ror was not to be feared so long .as truth was left free to combat it. tbe pernicious ideas and dangerous policy maintained by the Republican party might ba looked up on without apprehension, and.' indeed, wel comed to the : great arena of debate.' The reason and instinct of the people could ba trusted, and by the time tbat the sober suns of autumn were over their heads they would behold with clear, unclouded vision the pathway of duty, justice, and right. An extensive dissuasion or the tana in tbe Senate and House left no doubt as to tbe attitude of tbe Republican party on that question, and it had at last bean forced to throw away the masks and false faces, and to admit that taxation was not to stop at the revenue line of the government, but was to be turned loose without limit and without shame oa the labor of the people, for the sole purpose of enriching the fa vored few a syndicate of devouring; Insa tiate monopolists i After a very eloquent and impassioned reply to Mr. Ingalls recent speech, in uich be had referred to Gen ' Hancock and Gen McClellan as allies of the Con federacy, Mr. Voorhees closed .with the prediction that tbe verdict of the American people in novemoer next .would oe tnat there had been an i honest, capable govern ment for the last four .years, and that it should be continued. The bill to forfeit unearned land grants waa then taken up and discussed until 5 o'clock, when without action tbe Senate adjourned. t r HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Lanham, of Texas, presented tbe confe.ence report on tbe bill for tbe reuet of a postmaster for the loss of certain pos tal funds. The Senate amended the bill by making its provisions more general, and extending the provisions of the act of March 17, 1882 authorizing the rosimasier General to adjust certain claims of post masters for loss by fire and burglary, so to include within claims which shall be adjusted, those arising from the loss of poetal funds. The report was agreed to and tbe House went into Committee of the Whole (Mr Springer, of Illinois, m the cbair). on the Tariff bill. tMr. Bynum, of Indians, referring to tbe surplus, said tbat the withdrawal of so large a sum of money from the channels of trade for any long period of time would result in a contraction of currency which would swallow up in bankruptcy and ruin all of tbe most enterprising business men Congress could no longer escape tbe re sponsibility which rested upon it without arousing tbe Indignation of an oppre sed people. . Tbe time had passed when the House could refuse to consider a measure for the reduction of taxation; the time had come when it must meet the Question fair ly and honestly. Tbe bill presented did not meet with his unqualified approval He believed that the duties on imports should be levied, and:: collected at all iimss to meet tbe- current ordinary expenses of the g'vernmenf.and that any extraordinary expenses should be met by a resort to in ternal taxes. Believing this to be correct. be would maintain the present internal revenue system of taxation until tbe last obligation of tbe war was dis charge d. But, mindful of tbe diversified interests of tbe country, he was willing to come to' the consideration of the bill in a spirit of concession and compromise, and join in tbe construction or a measure wnicn vielded something to the productions of everv localltv. At present the law fixing duties on imports waa onerous. It bad been framed in a spirit of selfishness He advocated a reduction of duties on mate rials uoon which the laborers of the coun try worked. He advocated such reduction as would give larger markets in which manufacturers could sell their products. He admitted that wages bad increased un der a protective tariff, but he denied that this was on account of the tariff, because some Increase had taken place in Great Bri tain under free trade The country had .grown great, but not by reason of protec tion, but in spite of protection. : . . He argued that the price of labor was reg ulated by tbe law of supply ana armaria -not by a protective tariff. Tbe great trou ble with the country Was the want of mar kets. .Tear down the wall that , had been built around the coast. Give American la bor a chance to compete with foreign labor. and it would take care of itself. - It needed no other protection, f Applause on tbe De mocratio side 1 In conclusion, he said that tbe day bad passed when the glory and tri umph of men and nations was in tbe inva sion of a foreign land, and the day had arrived" when that glory and triumph con sisted in bearing the national emblem Into the harbor of every country . of tbe world, and there to plant it in the grand temple dedicated to commerce ana industry I Applause on the JJemocratic side. I Mr. Browne, of Indiana, expressed him self as not in the least frightened" at the plethoric condition of the national Trea sury : that our annual revenues were In ex cess of the ordinary expenditures was not necessarily to be deplpred. This was not the first time that there had been a surplus in tbe Treasury, but neither Mr. Johnson nor Mr. Grant, nor Mr. Arthur, had made the condition of the Treasury a pretence for disturbing tbe industrial policy of the government, The 'country continued to enjoy an unparalleled prosperity. The accumulating revenue might be : made the occasion for doing much for the people's benefit. r The national debt . might be gradually ', paid off;"1 the merchant marine might be built upj harbor and : coast de fences might ; be constructed; a navy might be provided commensurate with our giory . and - grandeur as a nation, and a gratef dl people might Under to the old' soldiers who saved . the country a parting benediction. Whv should Congress - be in euch hot baste to overturn the policy to which the commercial interests had adjust ed themselves? Under the protective sys tem our industries had been diversified and extended until the United States had be come foremost among the manufacturing and agricultural nations "of the' world That a surplus existed was an evidence of national prosperity. That it naa been gathered ; into the , .Treasury .1 with out oppression or . complaint was an, evidence that Mhe protective sys tem was a just one." If the surplus were under control of wise statesmanship, it ould be a national blessing: but as it was safer to reduce it than to run tbe hazard of ill-advised expenditures, he Was anxious to have a revision of the method -of taxation. so as to reduce .the revenues to the lowest limit of national-wants. But, he argued; tbe plan of reduction sketched by the Pre sideot In his annual message would result in disaster to American industries.! That tbe Democratic, party in the House bad not gone tbe whole length of the president's suggestions was because it feared party de atruciion more than financial disaster There was a feeling rapidly developing, and in no section more rapidly than in the ' solid 8outb " that the country should relieve it self wholly from internal taxation. Look ing at the system from a . revenue stand point .there was much to condemn it, and if the people understood tbat the whiskey tax was kept on in order .that a protective y stem might be maintained, the whiskey tax would have to go. f Mr. Browne congratulated the Jr resident upon having compelled his party to take an issue on the tariff question. The mas querade was over. Tbe question of to-day was whether tbe revenue system should be free trade or protection: for this bill was tbe vanguard of tbe free trade policy. Mr Uockery. of Missouri, said that the revenue tariff was a tax designed to furnish sufficient revenue to meet the current neces siiies of tbe government, economically ad ministered A protective tax was a dis criminating force attached to. certain indus tries to tbe disparagement of other indus tries, and this in tbe teeth of tbe equitable maxim that all taxes should be levied for public purposes. : A reduction of taxation was and would continue to be tbe domi nating issue in American politics, and in view of the solem pledges of both parties to revise tbe tariff and reduce tbe surplus, consideration of the question should be ap proached in a spirit of patriotism, modera tion and prudence. Discussing tbe subject of tbe surplus, ie declared that it was required in channels of business and trade and commerce in order that capital might employ labor, and Baid that the question presented was how - that surplus was to be dis posed 1 of. Would it be done by tbe making of extravagant appropriations ? tie warned Congress tbat if it did not re duce- taxation, that was tbe way in which the surplus would be got rid of. There were on the calendars of the House to-day hundreds of measures which would never have been beard of had it not been that there was a surplus In the i Treasury. In Conclusion, he said: "Let us unhand and unshackle the genius and enterprise of our people, and permit them across the seas to repossess themselves of tbe commercial ad vantages tbey enjoyed when the nag was a familiar sight in all tbe waters of tbe globe, and in all the harbors of the world." Ap plause. I Tbe Committee tben ro e. Mr. McMillin submitted a resolution agreed to in tbe committee on Ways and Means, relative to night sessions for debate upon tbe tariff bill, and prescribing tbe limit of general debate on tbe measure. The resolution was adopted: " The House, at 5 SO. took a recess until 8 o'clock, the evening session to be for de bate only on tne tariff bilL At tbe evening session of the blouse Mr Sbaw, of Maryland, and Mr. Glass, of Tennessee, spoke at length In favor of the pending bill, these two gentlemen occupy ing the entire evening session.
