Washington, February 12.?Tbe fea? ture in tbe House, to-day, was the speech of Mr. Dawee, principally on the condition of tbe treasury, in which he indulged not in figures of rhetoric, bnt in official figures. Tbe speech was a . severe arraignment of the financial condition of the oonntry. He showed a deficit of $52,000,000, whioh might be decreased somewhat by turning in of unexpended balances, aud criticised thoroughly previous Congresses of re? cent, years for wasteful appropriations, oiting several extravagant appropria? tions. Tbe Bpeaker euid no party could afford to go to the country with in? creased taxation, but, at the same time, intimated that the tax on tea and coffee should be restored; that ou whiskey and tobacco increased. Alluding to the ne? cessities of the treasury, he said it was the duty of Congress to resort to one of these necessities?increased taxation, a loan, or reducing expenses?to alleviate its condition; and regarding taxation, he said, if this measnre is reported to. ic wiii be iho nrsc time in the country's history when the country's industries had been taxed to meet current ex? penses; of previous reductions, he mud we went too far in relieving the country from taxation more rapidly than circum? stances justified. Ho now thought all idea of increased taxation must bo abandoned. A proposition to borrow money, he would consider fatal to the interests of tbe country. The speech ocoupied about two hours in its delivery, and creates a profound impression. No morn violent illustration of financial mismanagement eould have been ut? tered, even by an opponent of the pro sent party in power. 1 New Yobk, December 13.?A commit? tee of aldermen made another ineffec? tual search for tbe remains of Nutbauiel French, the Masonic Grand Master who was buried in potter's field.

In addition to this, it is understood the Governor of Kansas has offered $2,600 and Post Office Department $5,000; making tho aggregate $17,500. Washington, February 13.?In the Senate, Sargent presented a memorial, signed by 16,853 citizons of California, oalling the attention of Congress to the influx of Chinese ou tbe Paoiflo slope. Sargent said there were 60,000 Chinese near the Paoiflo coast; ihey underbid native labor; they imparted no vaiuo to the community; they wore pagans; tbey evin?ed no desire to became assimilated to our institutions; there bad been hut one or two instances known where any of them had expressed a desire to be? come citizens; they added nothing to the material wealth of the community, taking away with thum all that they ac? cumulated, and not even allowing tbeir bones to rest in American soil. This was a question which did not now con? cern tbe States* East, but it would eoun become a national question, for the L'a oi?o coast was the gateway through which these people would pour and finally spread over the whole country. In the Senate, Gordon introduced a bill in relation to certain claimB arising from seizure of cotton by tbe Treasury Department. Tho resolution offered a few days ago by Bayard, oalling upon the President to inform the Senate as to the conduct of Major Lewis Merrill, an officer of tho army on duty in South Carolina, was taken np and discussed by Bayard and Scott. Bayard, during his remarks, referred to tbe fact that many members of the South Carolina Legisla? ture were iguorant, not being able to read and write.

The distribution of the cur? rency was resumed. Merrimon aud Gordon participated in the debate. Iu tbe Honso, a bill for the appoint ment of a commission to ascertain the damages committed in Oregon and California, iu 1872-73, daring the Modoo war, occasioned a lively debute, but was finally rejected.
