AT DAN OISRO US BILL. Louisville Courier Journal, Dem. The New York Evening Post says: ' Once let4.he people know that they can reduce their, own school taxes one-half at a -single stroke, and yet draw enough from Uncle Sam to have in all the $428,000 a year for schools which is now raised, and the disposition to cease relying on their own resources would inevitably prove as strong in South Carolina now as it proved in the case of New England people fifty years ago. The men who devoted the -Western Reserve fund to school purposes in Connecti cut did not intend to make it a sub stitute for local taxation, bat only a supplement of the latter, enabling the people to improve their rude schools, erect more suitable school houses, employ better teachers, and raise the educational standard gen erally.. Yet the very knowledge that "they had an outside income as sured operated to-, make trie people unwilling to tax themselves enough to keep tha schools as good as they had been when they depended solely upon themselves, and this in a State where popular educa tion was devoutly believed in. The .Blair bill says in so many words to the people of South Carolina: Cut down your school" taxes one-half, ; and the grant to, which you are entitled from -J the Federal Tcgasuryi combined with what you1 will then raise yourselves, will give as much money for educa tional purposes as you have now The man; who, in the light of Con necticut's plain warniDg, supposes that the easy-going people of South Carolina, or any other Southern State, will not yield to a temptation which overcame the severe principles of a Puritan ; community, has a confi dence itf Southern human nature Whlrh OTinrr An st-wn A 1 1 tn rilfl" flPATu. hut which does not speak well for . .his head."

WASHntoTow, March I. The Chair laid before the 8enate a letter from the Secreta tary or the Treasury, transmitting in reply to the recent Senate resolution, areport snowing the claims account and vouchers suspended in that Department. MIn discussing a motion to print the papers Mr. Hale said the accounting officers of the Treasury had lately taken what seemed to him an extraordinary course of "holding P or suspending accounts or vouchers of officers of the Government who, according to custom and u nal authorization, bad paid. out moneys which hadfbeen entrusted to tnem for the purpose of being so paid out. i he contention of the accounting officers of the Treasury, Mr. Hale said, was that pay ments were unauthorized. - The papers, which are voluminous, were ordered printed. .Mr. Pugh representing the minority of the Committee on the Judiciary, submitted the views of the minority on the resolution erred to 1 w committee concerning the office of District Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama. It was ordered to be printed in the Congressional i Beeord, and also in separate form. It la three or four times as long as the majority report, ,-t Among the bills introduced was'one by Mr- Blair, at the request, be said of the legislative Committee of the Federation of Trades and Labor, to legalize the incorpo ration of the National Trades Union. It was referred to the Committee on Educa tion and Labor. ; ; - .. j . , . - At 1,20 o'clock Mr.-Hale moved that the Senate proceed . to the consideration of executive business. The motion was agreed to and the 8enate accordingly went into executive session, v ; ; j ..... j ..: ; ? i At 2 40 p. m. tbe Senate doors were re opened and the Chair laid before tbe Senate a lengthy message from the President bear ing on the right of the Senate or Senators to have access to papers, etc., in the Execu tive Department relating to ! suspensions from office. The President takes the ground that papers relating to suspensions from office are cot official papers, and con sequently he does not feel justified in send ing copies of them to : the Senate. It is a vigorous document and a long one. I The message was read at length; extraor dinary stillness prevailing on the floor of tbe Senate and tbe emphatic loudness and clearness of Chief Clerk Johnson's reading served to notify the galleries that some thing unusual was afloat, and before the reading was completed tbe galleries were crowded. '...::: i : r ; , :'-! - After the completing of the reading, Mr." Harris said Mr. President: I move that the message be printed and lie on the table.

I had no doubt that the Senator from Tennessee did not wish to cut off my remarks. I simply f wish to remark in moving to refer this communication to the Committee on the Judiciary, that it has "Very vividly brought to my mind the com munication of King Charles I to Parliament , in telling them what in conducting their affairs they ought to do and ought not to do. And I think tarn safe in saying-that it is the first time in the history jefrthe United States that any Presideptofj the United States has iundertakenvto interfere with the deliberations ofjeither House of Congress on questions penaing before tbem, otherwise than by messages on the state of the Union, which! thh Constitution com mands him to make? from time to time. This message is devoted solely to the Ques tion for the Senate itaelf, in regarcLto itself, that it haa under! nnnsiriprfttinn T think it will strike reflecting people in this coun try as somewhat extraordinary, if, in these days of reform, anything at all can be thought extraordinary. I I only wish to add to what I j have now said, in statement, so tbat it- shall go j with this message so ifar as the newspapers will do me the honor to have it go that tne President of thel United States has (unintentionally, no doubt,) entirely' mis stated tbe question; The President of the United States, in ma communications to heads of departments not his heads of de part meats, but headsof departments created by law directed them to transmit certain official papers, and jthat is all. The Presi dent undertakes ) to change the ques tion into consideration by the Sen ate of his reasons; or motives for putting civil officers, as it might be called, "under arrest,' with which tbe Senate has not un dertaken in any way to make any question at all. By every message he has sent to this body and they are all public he has asked the Senate to advise and consent to him the removal jof one officer and the appointment of another. That is what he baa done. And the senate, in calling for those papers, to say nothing of the wider considerations in the Department of Jus tice is asked to 'remove these officers with out knowing the conditions of the adminis tration of their offices. But I do pot wish to go into tbat discussion now. I move that the message be referred to the Com mittee on the Judiciary. l'. Mr Harris For reasons that I may not refer to here, I have no desire for, nor will I consent to, a discussion of the questions involved in this 'message at this time. I move that tbe message be printed arid lie upon tbe table, according to the universal custom of this body, when the subject matter had been reported upon by a com mittee. The Senator from Vermont (Mr; Edmunds) as chairman of the Committee on tbe Judiciary, bas already laid upon your table an elaborate report upon tbe general questions to which this message refers. Hence my motion was an ordinary motion, made here under circumstances which sur round us at this moment.. ... Mr. Edmunds (sotto wee) Oh! Mr. Harris I haVe no eanhly objection to tbe message going to the -Committee on tbe Judiciary if the Senator from Vermont (Mr. Edmunds) desires it to go there; but it is .unusual, because! tbe subject matter of the message bas already been reported on by tbe Senator from" Vermont, and there tore, in accordance wun ine unoro&en usages of this body,!

Mr. VanWyck, from the Committee on Pensions, reported, with an amendment. House bill to increase the pensions of widows and dependent relatives of deceased soldiers and sailors. The amendment provides for an increase of the pension of minor children from f 3 a month, the amount fixed by the House, to $4 a month. Mr. Van WycK said he would ass an ear ly consideration of tbe bill, and would ask the Senate to . increase minor children's pensions to five dollars a month, instead of four, as recommended Jy the committee. He would also ask that insane or helpless children should receive 2he pension given to minor children beyond eighteen years of age, so lone as. tbe disability or insanity should continue. ' " ' Among tbe petitions presented was one by Mr. Hoar from workingmen employed in Government workshops since the eight hour law of 1868 was passed, praying com pensation for over-time or reference of their claims to some tribunal that may ad judicate the question whether they ought to have such compensation. - At one o clock tbe Senate took up tbe Education bill and Mr. Call addressed tbe Senate in opposition to Mr. Allison's amendment. He characterized it as a re flection on the States, 'and abandonment of one oi lue principles ui our vxuveruiueuii. Mr. Call read educational statistics of seve ral States and compared figures of school attendance in each with similar figures re lating to Florida, to show tbat Florida bad proportionately as large a school attendance as other States for a certain number of months each yjar. Mr. Call said the school taxes of Florida were now applied to schools without distinction of color. If this money was distributed on tbe color principle of no distinction it would be violated. Senator Saulsbury opposed the bill, whe ther with or without tbe Allison amend ment. There was not only no constitu tional authority -for it, he said, but not even tbe -slightest necessity for it. The Southern States were amply able to educate all their illiterates. - The 8outh had extra ordinary resources. It had a monopoly of the cotton crop, an enormous tobacco crop, and a monopoly of the sugar crop and rice crop. Their great mineral and manufactur ing resources were rapidly developing. Why the difference in the cost of labor alone between the South and the North was enough to pay for the education of all the illiterates of the South. Tbe general welfare clause of the' Constitution never contemplated such schemes as this ' It was public alms-giving, witnout any authority whatever. " Senator Riddleberger opposed the Allison amendment. It would give three dollars to colored children for every dollar going to white children. It would destroy tbe bill and would destroy the public schools of Virginia. He appealed to tbe Republi can party to consider what harm it was doing to the. colored people, whom they were seeking to help, it would absolutely destroy all chance of their education, as the white people would destroy tne scnooi sys tem through which the money was to be paid out. Mr. Hampton said he was a sincere friend of the colored man and would be very sorry to see tbe -Allison amendment adopted. - As it would do the colored people more harm than almost anything tbat could be done. Tbe white people of South Carolina, he said, paid 97 per cent, of the school fund of tbe stale, leaving only 9 per cent, to oe paid by colored people; yet tbe constitution and laws of the State provided tbat tbe school fund should be distributed accord ingtothe number of children attending public schools. Mr. Ingalls favored Mr. Allison's amend ment. if the bill was to pass. He thought the amendment threw a necessary safeguard around tbe fund and said the money was to be distributed by the Secretary of the interior department. Zacn Montgomery, Assistant Attorney General, was a man notoriously opposed to the public school system. Mr. Ingalls read . extracts from pamphlets containing extracts from Mont gomery's speeches on tbe subject. He said Montgomery had disputed the correctness of some of the quotations credited to him, but be read one which be said Montgomery had not disputed. The book was entitled "Drops from the Poisoned Fountain; Facts that are Stronger than Fiction: by Zich Montgomery, of the California oar." Mr, Ingalls read from a speech .delivered by Montgomery before tbe Roman Catholic Sunday School Teachers Association of California in 1873, extracts which Mont gomery had not included in the extracts which he had claimed misrepresented him . Mr. Ingalls thought we had better put every safeguard possible in the bill. Mr. Hoar said the Allison amendment would be an invitation to the States them selves to make discrimination in favor of white children.' Tbe truth might as well be told namely, that Senators were un willing to trust the authorities of the States with tbe administration of tbe fund. Tbe Zch Montgomery argument was the trouble the argument that we could not trust the American people.-: ' - The debate lasted without interruption until 6 o'clock. Tbe remaining speakers were Messrs. Hale, Harrison, Piatt, Blair, Edmunds, Logan, Dolph and Hoar Seve ral amendments were- presented and or dered printed, when tbe Senate adjourned, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Morrill, of Kansas, from the Com mittee on Invalid Pensions, reported a bill extending until July 1st, 1888, the time within which applications for arrears of pensions may be filed, extending the pro visions of tbe arrears act to special- pen sioners, and providing that In an applica tion for pensions, the person on wnose ac count the pension is claimed shall be pre sumed Drima facie to have been sound and free from disease at the date of entering the service. Referred "to" Committee of the Whole. The morning, hour, expired without ac tion being reached upon any measure, l ne House then went into committee of tbe Whole on the Pension - Appropriation bill and general debate began. j Mr Wilson, of W. Va . made' a stirring speech in reply to one made a few days ago by Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, in which be defended the , Commissioner of Pension? and retorted upon Mr Henderson bis charge tbat by their vote upon the increase of widows pensions Southern members had unfurled again the bloody shirt. He said that this had been done by Mr. Henderson himself, in tbe inference! he drew from his unalvsia of that vote, and bv Mr. Boutelle, recently, in criticising Southern people for raising a few modest monuments to their friends who had died - in , defence of their opinions, Mr. Materson, . of Ind., also defended Commissioner Black and the House Pen-, aion Committee . r - Mr. Hammond, of Oa.', said that it bad been the principle of the Democratic party when in power, that when a man became a public officer he might think what he pleased, say what he pleased anddo what herf pleased, but that his services must be given to the public and not to his party. The President, of the United States stood to-day; inviting the American people to come back to the old paths and "in them you shall rest." Referring to the question of: : widows' pensions,! be said that that question had been up a half a dozen times since the war, but it had never been pro posed to increase them-until now.- This fact answered the argument of the gentle-; man from Iowa, (Henderson) when he ar raigned ? Southern ' members for voting against the increase. The stuff in his speech that the Constitution had been in voked to protect tbat . vote did not need re ply. , Tbe bitter gall against men whom he -took daily by the band as his friends did not need reply. - The spirit of the. speech, not .-: only : in manner but in cold printed : words, carried with it the condemnation of argument and needed, no more reply than when he consigned tbe Confederates to hell, and then intensified bell by a promise to go there with them.: TLaugbter and applause. I L Mr. Butterworth closed the debate in a long speech full of humor and sarcasm, and generally very wide of the question under consideration . It took in the whole range of recent political events, and par ticularly dwelt uponjthe Ohio election. ; At 5.15 the House adjourned and a Dem ocratic caucus was announced for this evening. - ......;....! -SENATE. ; Washington.' March 3. rThe Chair laid before the Senate the President's mes sage on-ithe treatment of Chinese in the West, already published. Referred to the Committee on Foreign Relational Mr: Evarts presented petitions of offU cers ittid trustees of savings banks .of New York State representing 11,165.000 deposi tors and $437,000,000 of deposits, praying Congress to stop the coinage of - the silver dollar. - It was referred to tbe Committee on Finance. - ' - - Mr. Riddleberger offered a resolution, which was agreed to, requiring each Sena tor to report to the Senate tbe name of - his private secretary. In introducing the reso lution Mr. Riddleberger said that some men were, holding tickets of admission to tbe Senate floor who would not be admit ted to the parlors of gentlemen if they were known as Riddleberger knew tbem. Such tickets were so issued to people who re-, ceived no pay except admission to tbe Senate floor to blackmail gentlemen, to libel them in their newspapers. Mr. Rid dleberger said he knew of a case in point. "We know what bad been said in the House about Mr. Eads being on the floor of that House." He asked if it were . permis sible for bim (Riddleberger) to state tbat while Eads had not been on the floor of the Senate, he had had three henchmen there two representing Republican newspapers and ; one a Democratic newspaper who came to secure information on which to libel Senators. Imagine a man having a ticket to the Senate floor in the pretended capacity of private secretary to a Senator which Senator had his own son as his pri vate secretary who drew the pay, while the other the creature was compensated by a ticket. ..- After tbe adoption of the resolution, Mr. Hoar had it reconsidered and so amended as to have the names sent in to the Secre tary of tbe Senate. U The Education bill was then taken up and Mr. Harrison spoke in advocacy of the bill and in opposition to Mr. Allison's amendment. v . Mr. Edmunds . moved a substitute for Mr. Allison's amendment' as follows: "And in each State and territory in which there shall be separate schools for white and col ored children, the money paid in such State or territory shall be apporiioned and .paid out for tbe support of such white and colored schools, respectively, in the pro portion that white and colored children between the ages of ten and twenty-one years in such State or territory bear to each other, as shown by tne census ci lecu. The foregoing provision shall not affect the application of the proper proportion of said money to the support of all common schools wherein no distinction of race or color shall exist." . , After a long debate Mr. Blair expressed his willingness to accept Mr. Edmunds substitute and it was adopted. The amendment offered by Mr. Dolpn was rejected by a viva voce vote, and Mr. Plumb began a speech, w nue tne senator was sneaking. Mr. Riddleberger rose to a point of order, saying be had called for a division on the vote and called for it in a tone tbat the President of the Senate could not fail to hear. Mr Riddleberger was ruled out of order, and yielded under pro test. " After Mr. Plumb had resumed his re marks. Senator Riddleberger again rose and renewed his point of order. "The Presi dent of the Senate was not observing the rules," he said. The Senator from Kansas (Plumb) was trying to defeat the bill and was allowed to make anotner speecn when a division had been called for. The responsibility was between the Sen ator from Kansas and the President of the Senate. He (Riddleberger) had heard it said that whatever i be said in tbe Senate was generally "sat upon." He did not care for that, however, since he knew he was right. "I am struggling for tbe pas sage of this bill," he said, "and am going to continue that struggle unoer tne ruies or the Senate, and you can't take from tbat desk the book that ought to control you and find witbin it a rule tbat justifies your ruling awhile ago. Tbe President pro tempore began to re ply, but was interrupted by Mr. Riddleber ger.. The Cbair again said tbe Senator from Virginia will please not interrupt the Chair. The Senator did not call for a division or for the yeas and najs, but when tbe Senator from Kansas (Piumb) was ad vancing an argument Son the bill, the Sen ator from Virginia (Riddleberger) then rose and demanded a division, it was men too late. The Chair.says kindly, but firmly, to the Senator from Virginia that he has not sought to discriminate against him in the slightest degree. - He is mistaken in that. On tbe contrary, the Cbair has ofte ndpne the reverse and appeals to the Senator from Virginia to withdraw tbat imputation, tbat the Cbair bad ever discriminated against bim or sought to deprive bim of his rights. The point of order ia overruled. Mr. Jitddleberger if tbe unair win permit me, I do not mean to say that tbe Chair had discriminated against me. I meant to say that the Cbair itself did not comprehend the rules. Roars of laughter. That is exactly what I meant to say. -. After further remarks the yeas and nays were ordered on the Dolph amendment, on which a viva voce vote had been taken, and pending a call tbe Senate went into execu tive session. When the doors were reopened the Senate adjourned. ; ... ' ' HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

Mr. Norwood, of Ga., made an ironical sneech in reply to tbat delivered by Mr. Rendersop, of Iowa, some days since, ridi culing that gentleman's profession of friendship for the South: but expressing his admiration for tbe manner in which he had declaimed the old story which was as well known to tbe country as "tne ooy stood on the burning deck' or "Mary had a little lamb." Laughter. The gentleman had made his sneech while . Union men and ex Confederates had been marching abreast without a single struggle to do jus tice to the survivors oi the Union army. Then the gentleman had stenned forward. arrested the column, and smiling upon the Confederates as quietly as Brutus had smiled upon Ccejar when be' bad invited him to take a rest at the foot of Pompey's column, had proceeded to address them in a persua sive strain, ending the speech ; with the de claration that he would rather, spend an eternity in hell with them than ah eternity in heaven with a Northern copperhead. Speaking for himself, while he returned" his profoundest . acknowledgments to tbe gentleman from-Iowa for the offer of his society if he should be so unfortunate as to get on the wrong road and join the gentle man down below, yet -he' entered his most solemn . and vigorous 4 protest against accepting his delicate companionship, for he was persuaded that no "en gagement, however pressing, would pre vent .the gentleman from arresting the column and mounting a red-hot stump, in sist that it should listen to him proclaim some old piece of political law. . The con clusion at which he (Norwood) bad arrived upon hearing the gentleman's speech was that the gentleman waa afflicted with the disease common to public men, known as: "wxpopuli on the diaphragm."

He closed his speech with an elo--quent pereoration descriptive of the beauti ful cemetery at Lexington, which contain ed graves of fathers and sons and brothers who had fallen in opposing ranks in the terrific struggle of war and of the peaceful lives of the descendants of those men who though they had been divided in sense of duty, bad never been divided in their love.
