Teiearmnt-lc?American Matter?. Washington, Deoember 10.?Pro? minent membors of the Senate Fi? nance Committee express the opinion that there will be no time to inaugu? rate nor to carry through any mea? sures looking to a ro-adjustmeat of le? gislation on the finances, so as to bring it in accord with eomo defined polioy. Tho antagonistic theories ad vooated by the bard money and infla? tion parties in the Seuate are as etrongly supported as last session, and the members of the aommjttco say that there are no indications of a com? promise on either side. Ouo member, when it was suggested that the Presi? dent would recommend action on the finances remarked that the season would be consumed with the appro? priation bills, and so did not think it advisable to re-open that inexhaustible topio of discussion. A g-jod deal has been said of tbo in? tention of tho Republican leader-: iu the House to take up at ouaoaud press to a vote the Senate Civil Rights Bill, now on the Speaker's table, und send it to tbo President; but inquiry shows that nothing of the kind is iuteuded. Gen. Butler entered, at tho hist ses? sion, a motion to rc-comcuit the bill to the Judiciary Committee, and it is bis intention to have it take thut course, with a view of amendiug it nud send? ing it back to the Senate. Tho full opinion of Justice Bradley, of the United States Supreme Court, deciding iu the Liuisima caso that the Enforcement Act ia unconstitu? tional, has boon made public bore, and is very strong from such a source us to leave no doubt iu the miuds oi good lawyers of both parties that the full bunch will confirm it iu March. This will relieve the opposition of tbo neces? sity of introducing a biil for tbo repeal of the law. Justice Bradley is a Re? publican, and is the last appointmuut to tbe Supremo Bench mado by Grant. It has transpired that for two weeks past a strong pressure has beeu made on Gon. Butler, as Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, to induce him to obango front on the proposed impeachment of Judge Durell. The letter's friends have besieged him in all waya to invoke bia vote in the com? mittee, and thus ohange the result; but he steadily refused, and even in? formed them that he should report the resolution for Durell'a impaaohment at tbe earliest practicable moment. Iu view of this state of affairs, Durell was advised at once to resign, which he did promptly. Butler, it is said, be? lieves Durell to have been a very un? righteous judge.

The easo was argued on the part ol the elaimaut by Henry C. Bliss, of this oity, and for tha Government by Gen. Creswell. Tho urgumcut developed the fact that tue questions were the most important that have yet arisen in \ this Court, aud introduced important law points connected with citizenship, naturalization and expatriation. Tho argument occupied the entire day, and a decision will probably bo rendered j early next week. An important case was set for a hearing next Moudaj*? being that of Whitiug r.s. United States. Tho nature of the case will cause it to be interesting to every seaman captured by Confederate cruisers. Whitiug, who was an Americau suilor on board tho Levi Starbuck, was captured by the Alabama, aud, us alleged, received such hardships ou board that vessel, that he lost the entire use of his bauds and feet, and as compensation claims 350,000. Another despatch says the remains of the Confederate dead were removed to-day, with suitable funeral coromo nies, from near Stiver Springs. On Monday and Tuesday, July 12 aud 13, 1SG-1, an attack was mude upon Fort Stevens, on the North side of Wash? ington, by a column of Confederate troops, oi Gen. Early's corps, uudor the immediate command of Geu. Gor? don, now Senator from Georgia. Quite a number of soldiers belongiug to the Uniou army were killed in the engagement, und their rem iius were afterward bnriei? in Battle Cemetery, which was laid oat ou tbeSeventn street road, near F'ort Sto7eus, for that purpose. There were also a num? ber of Confederate soldiers killed, ami their remains were interred on a farm near the fort, where thoy foil. A few weeks ago, some friends of the "iot.t cause," headed by Rev. J. B. Averill, pastor of Grace P. E. Church, situated about two miles above Silver Springs, resolved to gather up the remains and remove them to the abovo-uamed Johurch-yard for interment; aud steps I were immediately taken to carry tho plan into effect, nud progressed so satisfactorily as to be executed to-day. On Tuesday last, tho hodios, to the number of Keveutueo, were exhumed and placed iu six plain cofUns and borne to tho church-yard, where tin y were placed on a bier in front of the church, and after appropriate cere j mouies, were re-intt rred.

New York, December 11.?Tbe Post sayB a distinct shock of an earthquake was felt at 10.30 o'clock, last night, in the upper part of tbo city, all along tbo Hudson, up tho Harlem road aud at Stamford, Conn., families were aroused from their beds, crockery skuken, etc. Iu relation to tho shock of an earth? quake, last night, tbo Post further says a very distinct shock wus felt at Dobb'fs Ferry and on the West bank of tho Hudson, between Youkers aud Tarry town. About 10.25 P. M., a bouse shook with such tremendous motion that a family rushed from it, thinking it was being crushed. The noise ac? companying this shock was as well de? fined nud hud much the character of a eharp clap of thunder. There are comparatively few reports of the shook having been felt iu this city; one fami? ly, however, in tho Twenty-first Ward, observed it 60 distinctly that some of them got out oi bed to learn tho cause. Persons residing iu Mouut Vernon, East Chester, New Kocholle aud other villages ulong tho Eist side of Westebester County, suy the shock was felt at 10'20 P. M., and appeared to pass from u South-easterly to u North-westerly directum. Many wore greatly alarmed?believing that some dreadtul explosion hud occurred iu the neighborhood. On the line of the New Haven llailruad, the shock wiiti felt as far EiM ns Stamford. Ou the Harlem Btilroud lim-, it was very severe, especially iu the villages North. At William's Bridge, Fordbaru nud Alt. Hope there was con? siderable alarm. Iu the Tweuty-fuurtb Ward of this city, it was also very per? ceptible; new bouses, built in a most substantial manner, and proof against severe storms, wete shaken from their foundations to roofs, causing great tenor to the occupants. At Spuytcti Dnyval, the- coucussiou was so seven it caused general alarm, and iu tu toy I of the houses lights were kept burning till a lite hour, and the inhabitants were on t!i?.> alert fer n repetition of the shock. Uno of thu mounted patrol tuen s^tys that it terrified his h ir e,, aud the animal became almost un? manageable. The shock was very dis? tinct at Tarry town, and persous were to alarmed as to runout ot doors. Tuo earthquake was felt very distinctly at White Plaiuj. Accounts vary us to tbo duration of tho shock?some ui those who felt it being of tho opinion that it lasted as long as ?fteeu seconds, while others limit it to five seconds. The general direction of the noise, ac compuuied by Hlight oscillation, seems to have beeu from North to South, ac? counts from different persons mukiug it pass from North-east to South-west, aud from North-west to South-east. Ia the Beecher-Tilton suit, the Court decided to gMUt a bill of par? ticulars. Tho Court said the law im? poses uo impossibility aud does not re? quire from tbo plaintiff thu designa? tion of the precise day, at tbe hazard of fui'.uro of justice, it ho failed to prove the aot upon the precise day. It is sufficient if he designates the day with reasonable approximation, 60 that the defend iut is fairly apprised of the charges. In viow of affidavit of plain? tiff read ou this motiou, it will be suf? ficient for bim to state iu tho bill of particulars to bs furnished, that two acts of criminal intimacy, alleged to bavei taken place on tbo 10th and 17th I days of October, 1SG3, wero commit? ted ou or about those days, at either ono or tho other of tbo places men? tioned iu tho affidavit; or, as suggest? ed by one ol tbo counsel for defeudaut, it may bo regarded as suflicient to say . that those acts were committed during I Ihi month of October, 1803, auch state? ment, fairly acqn dnts the defeudaut with tho charge ho is to meet.

Significant Movement of Colored 1 : Soci?takb.?TUo . culoied . people. .X)11 Memphis, Tenn., havo a society called ' the Knights Brotherhood' and Monu? mental Association, the' objects of I which are set forth in a lengthy ad dress to tho colored people. These I are to discard all old political ties and cultivate and maintain permanent peuce with the white people of the South, in acoordanoe with tho dying words of Thomas Swan, late President | of the Polobearors. In their preamblo and resolutions they Hay: "We are fully aroused to tho consciousness that we have beeu for years the dupes of crafty, deigning, unprincipled meu, whose only object was their own per noual aggrandizement, irreapo^tive of means or remits to our injury. They have shorn us of our pecuniary ac? cumulations, the result ot weury years of toil; even pennies accumulated by oar youth nnd little lledgolings. AH this wo oonld bear, but they huvo left as dospisod by our ouly true frieuds, through their knavish misrepresenta? tions and unmitigated falsehoods. Our experience in this direotion, for whioh we havo amply paid, invites a change on our part. Therefore, iuviting thu sheltering legis of Almighty God, in whoso goodness, mercy und wiadotn we trust for onr futaro guiduuee, we ro solve thnt, embracing the honest aud truthful advico of our lato friend, Thomas Swan, we now aud forever shake off those unwarranted fears that have boon created iu and preyed as bugbears upon the miuds of oar sim? ple, people. We aro at last, convinced they were factious of political incendi? aries, who have sacrificed and led ns iuto our present trouble, and wo now pledge ourselves, u3 representatives of onr societies, henceforth to sever ull affinity and past relations with all men whoso only value resulted in plunder aud strife. We regret thb blindUOSS of the past, that has alienated the kind feelings of oar true frieuds, and iu our ellorti to improve iu the future wo pledge our faith mutually to each other, aud to all whom it may conccru, that hereafter we will sustain uo mau for oflico unless he is thoroughly identified with tho people of the soil, aud in full, truthful accord with our earnest desire to cultivate peace, har? mony and industry among the races." A Comh.vt Between Mam motu Uni l'ohns. ? Ou Satardry afternoon, at Birnuni's Museum, iu New York, a female riiinni eros, weighing about 5\50() pounds, was placed temporarily in the cage of ? male uuioorn, weigh? ting about 1,500 pounds. The mole became lurioui at this iutruuon, and. iayiiig aside ail gallantry, charged furiously upon the object ;.: hi:s wrath, driving her into one corner of the cage. The femalo tbeu faced her ad? versary and fought bravely, aud was ublu to defend lurself so long as she did not expose her flanks ti the enemy. Iu her struggles, however, she was throwu crosswise of the pen, wheu her opponent gored her fear? fully in tho side with his tusk, actually lifting her from the floor. The sliuggles of the huge animals woro accompanied with loud roars, the tumult being augmented by thu af? frighted cries of the 000 other animals composing the menagerie. The boasts throw their combined woight ugaiust the bars of the cage, which threatened to break under so much btraiu. The keeper, uftoi a strenuoos effort, suc? ceeded in placing a barricade between tho combatauts by throwing whatever wos at baud into the cage, and thus effectually separating them. The door was then throwu opt-u, aud the female taken from the cage, covered with wounds, whioh bled copiously, und after some difficulty wus placed iu her old quarters. Tho animal displays such hardihood that it is believed she will survive.
