Yeates and AVaddell are the only members of the House from North Carolina who voted for the Roach Bra zilian subsidy bill, and it is to the cred it of, the tatft that this is true. Mr. Waddell has always been one of the foremost, ablest and most energetic champions, of, the appropriation, and upon the final .tending of thebill made . a Icnbe and carefully prepared speech. Capt. Audrey's Speech. We invite attention to the excellently worded and well considered speectTof Capt. W. E. Ardrey, one of the members iwm Mecklefiburg, delivered in the House when the proposition was before that body to abolish the department of agri culture. Capt Ardrey -always thinks well and speaks well,- and his people will be interested in knowing what he said upon the important question which he discusses in his speech. Extra Session or Congress. After the all day and all highl and Sahday ses sions of Congress, an extra session is stall necessary. Tim is called for the 18th mswto take action upon the two im portant appropriation bills which went over and at that time the newSenator and t Representatives from North Carol in, to-wit:Z. B.

Chamberlain, of South CarolTni. luisrlttenml published in the New York Tribune an article in re ply to Senator. Blaine's speech on the Chinese question, and the letter is pro nounced by the Tribune an able pre sentation of the Eastern view of the question, setting forth the whole argu ment "in niore compact and con vicing form than any one writer has given be fore." Were Chamberlain as honest and as philanthropic as he is intellec tual, he would be an honor to the na-r tion and a man whom the nation would delight to honor. The Report of the Totter Committee. Hon. Clarkson N. Potter submitted to the House last Saturday his report, for the majority of the com mittee, touching the proceedings and the findings of the now famous " Potter committee," omitting only reference to the cipher dispatches, which tfill be dealt with in a subsequent report This paper is singularly calm in its tone, and recites in plain words the story of the crimes of the returning boards and their political-managers. The testimo ny is reviewed, and legal bearings upon particular points are given to show wherein the law was violated. The un lawful exclusion of Democratic votes in Florida and Louisiana, the acts of political artifice and.official usurpation employed to accomplish the desired end are set forth at length, leading to but the one conclusion, that the will of the people was thwarted. The report makes some suggestions as to providing by law to prevent such abuses in the future. The Republican minority sub mitted its report Monday, signed by ey- ery Republican member of the commit tee, except Butler, who gave notice that He would submit a report on htr own account, and signed only by him-' self. ' S02TJI ClitOLliSA'J PflJPOSirilW TO UER rBenrtntt. , The Richmond (Va.) State has these remarks to make: ! North Carolina has come to a settle ment with her creditors, but on a forci ble re-adjustment or repudiation basis, in which the parties most interested had nothing to say. An acceptable compro mise, indeed, in which the creditors are cutoff with' a shilling, and told they must take that and be thankful it is not less. Virginia, we trust, will do better than tirisandBtni"presrem"her credit and good name. This is the sublimity of cheek, com ing from a State which will notjtake a step nor turn a wheel in the direction of paying a cent of its honest debts. North Carolina confesses that she is bankrupt, and says to her creditors: "We cannot pay you all, but here, take this ; it is all we are able to give." Vir ginia says : "We'owe you money but we are not able to pay it all ; hence, we will pay you nothing." North Carolina cuts he! creditors off with a shilling! So indeed she does;, hut She had never expected .to see the day when she would be reminded of it by a people who cut their's off ibithout & shilling.

Sen ate. After an all-nisrhi session the Senate took a recess at 8 o'clock a.inn re-assem bled at 10, and was called w oroeroy Secretary Gorham, who read a note from the Vice-President notifying the Senate that he would not occupy the chair again during the present session, in order that a president pro tern, might "be elected " ;s-'- - Anthony, : of Rhode island, submit ted a resolution declaring Thomas W. Ferry, of Michigan, elected president pro tem. of the Senate. Mr Bayard moved an amendment by substituting the name of Allen G. Thur man, of Ohiofor that of Ferry., Re jectedyeas 26, nays 28. Ferry was then declared elected and was escorted; to the chair by Thurman. A number of private bills paed. The Senate pass ed 18 or 20 private bills, and between 11 and 12 o'clock held an executive ses sion for half an hour. When the doors were re-opened, Wui- dom submitted a resolution continuing the appropriation for the army and for the legislative, judicial and executive expenses of the government tor six months from July 14, so as to avow an extra session of Congress. Saulsburv. of Delaware, objected to its present consideration, and it went over. At 12 o'clock. President pro tem Ferry said : -"The time fixed forthe final adjournment of Congress having arrived the chair declares the Forty- Fifth Coneress adjourned without a dav- - " r r There were no manifestations of ap plause upon the announcement of the final adjournment. The closing hours of the session were characterized With even more confusion and disorder than usual. The Senate chamber was unu sually crowded, both upon the floor and in the cralleries. and sometimes with 8 or 10 Senators addressing the chair at the same time it was with great difficul ty that anything could be understood. House. Hewitt reported the confer ence on the army bill not aDle to agree. After a long discussion a vote was ta ken on a motion that the House insist on its disagreements and it was agreed to. The Seward impeachment case at 3 a. was again taken- up, . and- after a brief discussion, iu whicli- there 1 were 'some stormy passages, -the House recon sidered its vote ordering the previous Question and thus sot rid of1 the sub ject, ' At a quarter past seven the House took a recess until !. Notwithstanding the partisan feeling which pervaded both sides of the House in the various matters that came up durinz the night session, there was a re markable absence of personal aniinos: ty on the part of members towards their political opponents. Conger, of Michigan, was the most active and irri tating of the antagonists against whose attacks the Democrats were called u; on to defend themselves, but he and Springer, of Illinois, whom he seemed specially intent on annoying, were, whenever they met in the aisles or when they acted as tellers together, in as ami cable and as pleasant a mood as it no stingiug sarcasms had ever passed be tween them. It was the same with Atkins and Foster, with- Southard and f)arfield, and With all the other mutual ly hostile elements, un one occasion when Springer tried to get in some re marks out of order, Butler, of Massa chusetts, planted himself squarely in front of him and discharged a volley of "I objects, each louder and more em phatic than the one before, and he kept at it until he carried his point; and as he walked over to his desk again he gave as a reason for his demonstration that he was not -going to listen to abjise of a friend of his. There was less of tumult and uproar than at almost any other last night of a Congress, and there was not the least sign of that hilariousness which has sometimes characterized snCh night ses sions. The attendance of members all through the twenty-two hours of the sitting was quite large, and when the vote indicated the absence of a quorum, it was generally because the members refrained from voting. Some of the oldest members, notably Butler, of Mas sachusetts, and Patterson , aud Town send, of New York," were among tliose who showed the least signs of fatigue, and after a brief recess of one and three quarter hours they were among the ear liest in attendance. The Speaker was seldom out Of the chair and he steered the House through the sudden storms and through the roeks and quicksands of parliamentary navigation, with great skill, tact, moderation and impartiality. The.Senate bill was passed giving the consent of the government to the agree ment entered into by the States of Mary land and Virginia respecting the boun dary between said States. ! The Senate bill passed "for the sale of lands fn Flori da not needed for naval purposes. The House resumedthe consideration of the bill known as the "McGowan health trill,? and it:was passed. It pro vides fbr a commission, of health to sit ia Washington, to establish .rules and regulations in:egard.to the public health, tQ obtain and communicate in Jorrdaflon on the subject ef epidemic L diseases and report to tlie next Con- gresnrt '.. .. n The pension arrears appropriation bill passed. At 11 o'clock Atkins reported the con ference committee on the legislative bill not able to agree and moved that the House adhere which is a parlia mentary finality. The notion was agreed to. On motion of Garfield a resolution of thanks to Speaker Randall for. the prompt, efficient and discharge of the arduous duties of his office was unani mously adopted. . . 12 M. Congress has iust adjourned after a very exciting scene, and1 after the delivery of strong political speeches on both sides, the Speaker made a part ing address which was most enthusias tically applauded. He spoke as follows: .Represektati ves : -t"fii a moment this Congress will expire. t s acts, whether formal or woe.-are indellioiy inscribed upon the pages,of history. In this hall party has been arrayed against E arty and interest against interest, in erce and bitter struggle, but it is due to truth to say that on eveiy side there has been an honest ambition to win popularity by seeking, each- in his own way, and according to His best judg ment, the general welfare. -..Wbsther'or not the desired end of thevpublic good has been successfully attained is for time to prove, but that such has been the aim of both, sides cannot, justly be disputed.

THE legislative and army -bills GONE OVER. All the anDroDriation bills, excepting the legislative and army bills, havel)een signed and are now laws ; also the river and harbor bill, and the bill making the requisite appropriation to pay. the arrears of pensions. The last named reached the President a little before 12 o'clock and was promptly approved. It is understood that a message veto ing the river and harbor appropriation bill was proposed,' but under the in fluence of jgreat pressure the executive signature was finally affixed to that bill. EXTRA SESSION TO BEGIN ON THE 18TH. The President and his cabinet while at the capitol this ,morning agreed on the 18th of this month (March) as the date for the commencement of the ex tra session of the forty-sixth Congress, for the convening ot which a proclama tion will be forthwith prepared and is sued. Later. The proclamation of the President calling for an extra session of Congress to assemble on the 18th inst- was issued this afternoon. The proclamation recites that an extraor mdary session is necessary for the rea son that the rorty-htth congress ad journed without making the usual and necessary appropriations for the legis lative, executive and judicial expenses of the government for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1880, and without making the usual and necessary appro priations lor the support ot the army tor the same fiscal year.

Butler on the Potter investigation were pre sented to the House last night The document is very voluminous, covering some two Hundred pages ot legal cap. lie maintains that the appointing of judges of the Supreme Court on the commission to decide the late presiden tial election has done great harm to the cause ot justice by impairing the rever ence that the ieople have always iustlv h;id for the integrity of the decisions of that court, and the experiment ought never be tried again ; that the counting in of Mr. Hayes was obtained by a se ries of gross and unjustifiable irregu- laruies ami irauus wmcn cannot be too strongly, condemned and reprobated that if any title to the governorship of Louisiana resulted from the late elec tion in that State to any one it was to Gov.
