Washington, Jan G Sk.iat. The chair laid brfore the Scnaki the 1-IUt from the secretary of war transmitting plana and estimates for a permnuuut wharf at Fort Monroe, Va. Also a letter from the postmaster-general, complying with the call of the recent Senate resolution in respect to the appointment of postmasters in Maine, alleged to have been procured through the influence of S. S. Brown chairman of the Democratic committee of that State. This communication caused a sharp political debate between Messrs. Hale, Vest and Voorhees, at the conclu sion of which it was, on motion of Mr. Hale, referred to the commtttee on civil service reform Amoue the, bills introduced and ap propriately referred were the following: By Mr. Hoar, to fix the time for the meeting of Congress. It fixes the time of meeting of Congress in 1880, and every second year thereafter on the first Monday in October, . and : in lool and every second year thereafter the first Monday in November In introducing the bill Mr. Hoar said that all must concede that the business of the country was increasing so fast that longer ses sions of Congress were necessary. Mr. Gray called up Mr. Beck s recent resolution of inquiry, regarding the payment of cutonis duties in coin and the application of that coin to the pur purposes of the sinking fund, etc. The resolution having been ri ad, Mr. Gray said he would vote for it, but for reasous very different from those which actuated Mr. Beck and those who thought with him. Keviewing the history of our coin legislation,,, the act of 1878, Mr. Gray ;says,! was tentative. It was based on the idea that silver would'shortly reach an interna tional ratio with gold. It was the hope of the attainment of this international ratio that actuated many thoughtful men in voting for that bill. This -hope had been disappointed. The. object of the bill had been defeated, and the dollar, worth ninety-two cents in 1878, was now worth less than eighty cents. Pas sionate invective on the part of the sil ver men would not enhance the value of the silver dollar. - The actions and rec ommendations of the President and the secretary of the treasury I on the silver question were right. He (Gray) was not here to defend any oae, but economic laws were always the same. He was neither a bondholder, nor the son of a bondholder, but he was for paying the bondholders' : in honest i money. The true issue in question was whether the true relation Of gold and silver cou!d be reached by a continuance of the pres ent plan Of silver coinage. He asserted k tk;,m..i k Tk .ii. coinage bad si rved a useful purpose s a subsidiary coin, but no country desired a basis of silver coin alone or to see gold supplanted by a silver basis. The gold standard bad kept ns in easy rela- ; tions with the rest of the world. Bi- metalism could not be reached by any one country ! alone. France had long aii tonndi hr ailvef oinrfi and 1 should we by continuing our present j cause drive out of : the several hundred millions of gold vvuuvt j coin ? It we ' did so we should have contraction ended, the act of 1878 having failed; to raise the Value of silver. Porsitttnnc in nnr nrnt. nlnn nf aiUor coinage would bring us to a silver standard. , We would be descending to a basis of a 10 per cent on the dollar, and thus the government of the United States would in, fact be scaling its own States would injact l debt. This would be a public misfoT- tnne as evidencing a condition of pub- 11C QlSQOneSlV WUlCn. lO BBV U6: leSSb. was ; equally reprehensible with indi- j:. i .1 L - vmaai uibuoucb. iuauy ui muoo wuu favored silver coinage were not, in Mr. Gray'8"ppinion, solid, conservative busi- ness men, but those of a speculative turn. He desired to see silver in cir- culaiion concurrently with gold, but the iauure 01 me uesv euoria 10 get into mat condition was sufficient proof that our con tinued coinage would be of no avail in that direction. We were all embarked on the same great voyage debtor and credi torone fate awaited us all. We should therefore honestly endeavor to adjust our differences in order that the interest! of all our people j may be honestly and fairly advanced. Mr. Gray was listened to with unusual attention. His voice was clear, resonant audi well sustained, and at tne close of his remarks be re ceived the congratulations of several of hi. ! his senatorial friends. Mr. McPhcrson followed upon the same subject and on the same hue with Mr. Gray.

Mf Brown expressed himself m opposed to woman sunrage, ann saia tnt it tne question was up in his own State he would vote against it, bnt as tne ques tion before the Senate was one affecting a right already,, given to the women of Utah by the laws of that Territory, he (Brown) would vote for Mr. Hoar's mo- THI tin.

The section disfranchising women remains therefore a part of the bill. An amendment pro posed by Mr. Kdmundj was agreed to, providing that marriages within but not including the fourth degree of consan guinity shall be deemed incestuous and punishable by imprisonment. Mr. Mor gan opposed the provision for trustees to administer the affairs of the Mormon chureh. He characterized polygamy as an .offense that "stinks in the nostrils of civilization." He thought if anything was to be dene about it, it should be toru up, root aud branch. Mr. Ed munds replied that thole trustees would deal only with the property of that dim ch. The committee had feared to abolislilihe whole corporation, which Congress had the clear right "b do, and h-d confined tho work of toe trustees to th. temporal affairs of the church, 'luy cmioiittee had not wished to make a precedent for for legislative interference with religion, Apart treui the feature of polygamy, Mr. Edmunds did think tho belief of the Mormons greatry different from the belief of other sections. After further debute as to tho provisions relating) to the testimony of husband and wife. the debate went over until tomorrow. Mr. Edmunds saying he woujd then ask the Senate to "sit it out" aud bring the bill to a vote. Senator Voorhees gave notice thst Wednesday, January 20, he would call up his resolution expressing the sense of the Senate ou the death of the late Vice President Hendricks. ' Mr. Morgan offered a resolution, which was agreed to, directing the com mittee on Indian affairs to consider and report whether a wise policy in the civilization of the Indians required the establishment of a school west of the Mississippi river, based on the principle of military enlistment, instruction and discipline of Indian youths, with a view to qualifying them for service in the United States army.

A storm of unusual viitlenc(3 prevails in the moun tains. The Li'.iekades ou the railroads ht tlie wort known for years. The Signal service officer here says the storm originated iu tho Hoeky mountains four duys uifn, when the first frigid weather began. At towns iu northern Colorado the thermometer varied from twenty to thirty degrees below zero. At Tennes see Pass, above Iicadviille, the mercury was thirty-three degrees "below. Tbi. intensely cold weather was accompanied by high windn, blowing from ihe North. The zero-laden winds blowing East and striking a warmer atmosphere caused a heavy snowfall iu Kansa. The worst phse of the storm is the necessarily dis astrous effect it will have upon the cattle interests. It is thought that the stcrm will cause a high death-rate in southern Colo ado, not because of the snow par ticularly, but because of the intensely cold weather aud high winds. Along the Arkansas valley herds are drifting to the river aud showing unmistakable evidences of exposure and fatigue. In the mountain valleys, where thousands of cattle were lately driven from the overstocked ranges of the plains, the ptoriu will prove to be excessively se vere. The larger portion of these val leys are out of tho roach of telegraphic communication. In the valleys heard from, especially iu western and noithern Col orado, lying west of the couiinental di- viae the snow is reported to be unu sually deep and the streams frozen. Great lots will undoubtedly be the re sult. Tlie unparalleled, cold weather in north IScvr Mexico will cause great dam age to the mmntotb herds grazing there. Hundreds of suow-ahovelers, a dozen of snow-plows aud all the lqcomotives avail able have left Denver to battle with the drifts on the railroads. The wide scope ot country lying between tW Kansas line and the base of the mountains escaped with only a few inches of snow fall, but was the dominion of an arctic wave.

SENATOR VANCE 8 PROPOSITION TO B.IPKAL THK CIVIL BIRVICS LAW Special Dispatch to the Baltimore i Sun. W a suinoton , Jan. 5. One of the features of today's proceedings in the senate was the introduction of a bill by Senator Vance, of North Carolina, pro viding for the repeal of the cjvil service lawa and all additions and modification? that may have been made to the original bill. Senator Vance says he introduc ed his bill in good faith and at the1 pro per time he will deliver a speech in ex planation of it. He does not expect it to receive; many votes in the Senate, but from private conversations he his had with members of that body he believes there is a majority who would like to see the law repealed yet they have not the courage to face pnblic sentiment and vote as they ! feel, lie says the civil service system . is a farce and a sham, which the rank and file of the Democratic party do not understand, nor do they have any 'faith in it. During the last presidemial cam paign the Democratic . stamp speakers started ont to talk to the people about the tariff. An order was Bent out from headquarters to drop the tariff question and let the battle-cry be ' 'Turn the ras cals out." The Senator says he went down into his own State and informed his people that if they would come up and vote for Grover Cleveland and hon est government the rascals would be turned out and honest Democrats ap pointed to fill their places. The people came out and voted as they were in structed, but now, when they come forward and ask why the -rascals have not been turned out, they are informed that a mistake has been made, as j it is now discovered that there are no rascals in tomce, and tne campaign cry was simply gotten up to deceive the people. "In the weak and sickly platform,' say the Senator, "we were promised' that the tariff would be reformed. There will be no reform of the tariff during this Congress," he added very emphati cally. "Then we were told thai the rascals would be turned out, and even that promise has been broken." He said he did not wish to come oufj too heavily on the administration at one time, but will have to oppose its recom mendations on the silver question Jl and also make a speech against civil service and endeavor to show the follies of it. - -aMP 11 i j Wake Superior Court.
