Washington, January 19.?In the House, bills were introduced, purchasing tho Monticollo homestead of Thomas Jefferson, and granting all public lands in Alabama for sohool purposes. Wil? son, of Indiana, moved so suspend the rules aud adopt the following resolu? tions: Whereas, by reason of tho present monetary stringency, and tho insuffi? ciency of tho amount of circulating me? dium, tbo industry and commercial affairs of tho country bavo been greatly depressed; and whereas, by reason of such stringency, tho rf/onuos of tho Government have been largely dimi? nished, in oonseqnenco whereof Con? gress has been asked to increase taxa? tion to the amount of $12,000,000; and wberoas, until tho reoont panic, tho revenues wore ample to moot the cur? rent expenses of tho Government; there? fore, Resolved, That instead of lovying ad? ditional taxes, tho truo policy lies in tho enactment of suoh n law or laws ns will relievo such atriugeaoy, aud supply tho moans nccossnry to tho business wants of tho country, by increasing tho circulating medium; thorohy reviving business, increasing tho revenue, and thna avoiding tho necessity of increas? ing the prosout rates of taxation or da ties, or tho imposition of additional taxes or duties. Resolved, That tho Committee on Banking und Currency bo instructed to prepare and report to tho House, with? out delay, a bill for tho purpose in the first resolution expressed, aud that said , ^ ? ? - ........ I , . . . ,.-1 committee have leave to report at aoy time. MoCrary, of Iowa, called for the yeas and nays. Speer, of Pennsylvania, in? quired whether the question of con sideration oould be raised. The Speaker said that question was raised. The mo? tion was to suspend that rule and ail other rales. Dawes, of Massachusetts, remarked that tho subject was before two committees at present, and had been discussed in the House last Satur? day. He suggested that instead of having a vote now, the resolutions bo simply introduced, and sot down for debate at some time, so that the various views of members might bo brought out, and tbat tbe Committee of Ways and Means and the Committee on Bank? ing and Currency might have benefit; of those views. The Committee of Ways and Meaus proposed to report some? thing to-morrow, which would bo the subject of debute, cod lined to this mut? ter. Holmau, of Indiaua, objected to discussion. Randall, of Pennsylvania, remarked that tbe Committee on Banking and Currency was holding sessions every day?even during tbo sittings of the House?listening to the views of gentle? men from various parts of the country. Wilson said tbat tbis question of in? creased currency was exciting u great deal of public attention, and therefore he bad drawn these resolutions for the express purpose of tasting tbo sense of tbe House, and letting tbo country know whether or not there was to bo an inorease of currency. Cox, of Ohio, wanted to offer un amendment, but tbe Speaker informed him tbat be oould not do so under a motion to suspend the rules. Tbe vote was taken, und result? ed, yeas 135; nays 98; so, two-thirds not voting in tbe ullirmative, tbe resolutions were rejected. Tbe nomination of Morrison B. Waite, of Ohio, to bo Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, was a surprise to Senators and all others about the Capi? tol, including tbo Justices of tbo Su? premo Court, but it did not occasion the same degree of wondor as when Ca? leb CuBbing's name was transmitted for the same office. Subsequently, the Se? nate, iu executive session, referred tbe nomination to the Committee on the Judiciary, who will probably to-morrow report favorably upon it. Many inqui? ries were made as to tbo standing of tbis gentleman, he not having u national re? putation, but being tho best known in tbe State of which he is a citizen. Tbe nomination recalled tbo fuct that be acted as one of the counsel ut the Ge? neva Tribunal of Arbitration, und some of the Senators wero acquainted with him, as an ublo lawyer of 'bitty years standing in Ohio. Although a Repub? lican, hu is not au activo partisan, and is at tbe present time President of tbe Ohio Constitutional Convention. It was discovered, on looking at the Supremo Court record, that a year ago to-mor? row, Mr. Waite was, on motion of Caleb Cashing, admitted to the bar of the Court as an attorney. Contrary to re? port, Mr. Waito never hold a judges hip in Ohio. Senators of both parties speak well of tho nomination, and there seems to be uo doubt of tbo confirma? tion. Mr. Hayes introduced a bill donating half of tbe public lands of tho United States to the Southern States for edu? cational purposes. The Judiciary Committee was in? structed to inquire whether legislation is necessary to prevent the illegal nse of tbe American Hag on commercial ves? sels. In tbe Senate, tbe Chair laid before tbe Sunute a communication from tho Secretary of War, in respouso to a reso? lution in rcgar 1 to an appropriation for tho collection and payment of tho boun? ties to colorod soldiers and sailors. Tbo loiter stales tbat of tbe appropriation of $50,000, but 322,000 remain to con? duct basiness until June 30. Tbe es? timated expenses per mouth are, at tho lowest limit, $55,000; therefore, at tbo cud of April, the entire appropriation will havo been expended; and unless somo provision is made, all work will have to si up and tho elciks uj dis? charged. Tho S-'cretary recommends tbat the unexpended balance of the ap? propriation for tbe collection and pay? ment of bounties for tbo fiscal year end? ing Jone 30, 1873, be rendered availa? ble.

Duel in Indiana.?Last Saturday ! night, while a party of yonng people of Jamestown, Boon* County. a town some fifteen or twenty miles North-west of here, on the I., B. and W, Railroad, were returning from a danee, two mem? bers of tbe party, named Briggs and MeOlain, the former assistant marshal of the town, quarreled over the privilege of accompanying one of the females. High words ensued, and finally it was decided to repair to a neighboring com? mons and settle tbe diffionlty by an ap? peal to arms. The madmen, for such tbey were, repaired to tbe spot selected at mid-night. It was arranged that they should stand back to back, advanoe tbreo paces, wheel and fire, the distance separating them being only six paces. Tbo arrangement was carried out, aud at tbe first fire, MeCIain fell, tbe ball from Briggs' pistol having gone clear through his neck. Briggs was unhurt. It is reported that after MeCIain fell, Briggs walked up to where he lay and deliberately shot bim twice more, both balls taking effect in tbe body. Briggs was arrested and underwent a prelimi? nary examination, and was heh] to bail in the sum of $5,000 to await the result of McClaiu's wounds: The condition of tbe latter is considered hopeless, as the two balls last fired into him cannot be found.?Indianapolis Journal. An Ex-New York State Senator Sent ro the Penitentiary.?A remark? able featuro in tbe proceedings of the United States Circuit Court, in Now York, Tuesday, before Judge Benedict, was tbe senteuco of ten years' imprison ment which be imposed upon ex-Senator Wm. M. Graham, who bad been recent? ly convicted of embezzling abont $170, 000, the property of tho Walkill Na? tional Bnnk, of which establishment be bad been President. Judge Benedict, addressing tbe prisoner, said: "There are, indeed, no extenuating circum-' stances in your case. You were the President of a National Bank, and as such you shamefully abused the confi? dence reposed in you, and stole the' capital of tbe bank to use in your own' private speculations. I, therefore, feel| justified in inflicting apou you tbe high? est punishment allowed by law. The! sentence of tbo court is, tbat you be! imprisoned at bard labor for ten years' in the Albany Penitentiary." Horton, the Cashier, who has been accused ofj participating in tho fraud, is a fugitive; from justice. How Protection Protects.?A year or more ugo, when tho tariff was before Coiigresp, tho operatives in tho eilk mills of Patersou, N. J., permitted themselves to bo used as signers of a re? monstrance in tbo uamo of labor agaius! any interference with tho duties on silk.' A committee of operatives uotnally went; to Washington to represent to Csu-! gross that tbe tariff duties secured fair wages. Since tbat time poverty and, destitution have brought them to u closer acquaintance with tbe effects of protectivo duties, and last week there was a mass meeting of 500 of tbe silk operatives at Paterson. They made speeches, and finally by a unanimous vote adopted a resolution praying Con? gress to reduce tbe duties on silk yarns from thirty-fivo to twenty per cent. To understand tbis case it is necessary to explain that tbo duty on all silk manu fuotuers is sixty per cent., and on silk yaru or thread thirty-five per cent. Lador Difficulty in PrrrsBURa.? Tbo Pittsburg Commercial, of tho 13th instant, says: Wo find here eighteen idle window glasB factories, employing when in oporatiou 1,000 men. Now a small minority of this 1,000 see fit, by the operation of their trades union, to keep tbo larger number iu absolute want. When no tako into consideration tbe fact that each of these workmen repre scuts on an avorogo fivo persons, we have a total of 5,000 hungry mouths as tbo result. Upon investigation, we filid tbo wages of all employeos ia this branch of business here so greatly in ex? cess of that paid for tho samo work iu New Jersey, New York State and Balti? more, tho other large glass centres, that it is a matter of wonder that it hr?q bcou possible to continue tho business here at all. - ?.> , ? ?
