WasfeburMW Speech la the Haase. Washimotou January 6.—Mr. Washburns, of Illinois, In the course of his speech in the House to-day. said after alluding to the sot of General Grant: It is true that the representatives of the people were admonished, and that they are tha servants of the people and are paid by the people. Their constituents have confided to them the great trust ol guarding their rights and protecting their interests, and that their position and their power are to be uaed for the benefit of tbe people whom they represent, and not for their own benefit and tbe benefit of the lobbyists, the gambler and the speculator, who have come to Washington to make a raid upon the Treasury. The time baa also come in my Judgment, when public men are to be held to a more strict accountability to a more strict discharge of their doty, and when the actions will be scanned by a more critical
eye.
Much ke expected of the new administration, and the public expectation will not be disappointed; but aa much aa General Grant can do, and as much aa he will do in hia own sphere of action, it la idle to suppose that he can do everything that tbe country requires to be done. To secure those reforms in the public service, which are so Imperatively demanded, aa President, General Grant must have the earnest and cardinal support of the other branches of the Government, particularly of the legislative branch. The responsibility of this Congress, so far aa tbe next administration ia conoarned, is complete. Tbe great masses of our constituents, tbe bone and sinew ' ion who have no
who desire an the Govern-
m The men who taught the battles of the republic and ponred out their blood In Us defense, require of us a decrease of our expendit urea and a reduction of taxation, regard lam of tbe mysteries of finance. They see our credit can be improved; the
bile faith vtadloatod; * rejurp
uctlon of
interest, and the public debt secured by keeping down tbe expendlturee of the government to the lowest possible point by honest legislation. It ia for Congress to keep down the expenditures, and it is for the President to see that the laws are faithfully executed and the revenues collected. Bat H is lor Congress to see, also, that they do not keep the fettera on the limbs of the President so aa to render it Impossible for him to fkithtally execute
tbe laws.
After stating, in some detail, the expense of the last four years, and the estimate of tbe Secretary of the Treasury for the next flacal year, Mr. Washbure proceeded to the consideration of the question what this Congress will be called upon to appropriate for deficiencies for the present fiscal year, ending June 30, 1860, and to carry on the Government for the next fiscal year, ending J une 3, 1870. First, as to the estimates made by tbe Secretary of the Treasury of additional appropriations required to complete the service of the fiscal year, ending June 30,
1860, and previous years.
It ia for Congress to inquire rigidly into
the necessity and propriety of voting these deficienciea, which the Secretary estimates at the enormous sum of 921,000,000. Of this amount 914,000,000 la for the army, necessitated in a great measure by a consuming Indian war, which is entailing extraordinary axpense on the Government. Tbe next eurrent amount ia the estimated deficiency for the Post Office Department of 94,600,000, incurred by the extravagant contracts for unjustifiably extendea mail service. Then there was a scandalous estimate of nearly 9665,000 for deficiencies in public build-
ings, which they were promised. The large amounte we appropriated last
year should have tarnished the buildings. Add this amount of 9666,000 demanded aa a deficiency for this fiscal year to the demands for the same purpose for the next fiscal year of 92,434,000 and It makes 98,099,(500, which we are asked to vote for public buildings at this session of Congress, and at the present state of tbe Treasury, or indeed at any state of the Treasury, I feel bound to denounce it as the most extravagant, unjustifiable and prolific expenditure of money ever asked of Congress. There are other deficiencies which have been made and which we are called upon to make that are without justification. If it bA considered that Congress haa any power over the Treasury.
In view of the state of our finances, and
deeming it indispenalbly necessary to reduce our expendlturee for the present year in eveiV way possible, and In the full light of that facta that Congress ap-
ropriuted a given amount, which was
appropriation committee has not procee dvarioua accounts making up the suM, but we shall report a reduction of mo ret ban 9100,000 from what was asked for the expenses of foreign interoourse and nearly one million which was asked to gof into the legislative, exeeutive and Judicial bills, pensions, Indian department, and the army proper, must remain about the same aa stated in the estimates of the military academy, we reduce 960,000 On the eetimates for armories and fortlfioationa, 94^200 are asked, and I believe we can get along with 91,600,000 for harbor and river improvements,^ and public buildings, 9846,608. In my Judgment, 9800,600 would be as much a» Congress would wish to appropriate ander these heads for naval eatablishawnts; 92,009,341,460 are estimated, but Wi the navy bill already prepared, this ia reduced to about,fldtOOO,000, which, it> believed, will answer every purpose. } Here on some 915,000,000, whiehiit is can be cut off from tbe total ex-
uw. AUU w vumb v«,uvu,uuu uiurc iur various other expenditures, and we have a total Of 9200,000,000. It la my belief that the expenditures ean be kept down to that point, and that the Government can be administered for that sum. If that can be done, ea it ought to be done, a food showing ean be made. No estimate Tn relation to the Revenue for thq next fiscal year can be made, but it appears from the Secretary’a report that the actual revenue received for the ftralta|uarter amounts to 006,006,806, and the^Beoretary estimates the amount for the next three-quarters at 9246,000,000, making a total estimate for the year of 9841,000,000. Bat Mr. Wells' special commissioner of reveaae, who has given this matter great attentien, estimates that it will reach 9866,000,000, being 916.000.000 more then the estimate of tbe Secretary. Assuming, therefore, that we shall not collect more revenue for the fiscal year ending June 30,1870, than the Secretary eatimatas, we shall collect for the present fiscal year, and assuming that our expendlturee will not exceed #290,000,000, there will be a surplus of 957,000,000 for the year ending
June 80, 1870.
With an honest collection of revenue, and without any increase of taxes, I think we can collect four hundred millions of revenue. If this cau be done, and our expenditures will be kept even withihree million, we shall show a surplus %t tbe end I of the fiscal year of 1870 of seven-ty-five millions. With an exhibit of this character, which la an exhibit that eaq be made if Cengreaa sad the Executive will sot in bannony to that great end, the credit of the Government will be established on an enduring basts, one bonds will go to par in Europe, greenbacks will approximate with gold in value, t

Adopted. Mr. Sherman presented a petition from citizens of 'Ohio asking Congress to pass laws to guard against fraudulent naturalization. Referred to tbe Committee on
Judiciary.
Mr. Edmunds, from the Judiciary Committee, reported the following substitute for the biU introduced by him on the 15tb of December, to prevent tbe holding of civil oflicea by military officers; to prevent the holding of more than one office at tbe same time: Be it enacted Ac., that no person shall hold nor shall be receive a salary or compensation for performing the duties of more than one office or place of trust or profit under the constitution or laws of the United States at the same time, whether such office or place be civil, military or naval, and any person holding any such office or place, who shall accept or hold any other office or place of trust or profit under the constitution or laws of the United States, shall be deemed to have vacated the office or place which he held at the time of such acceptance. Tbe Senate took, up the bill to promote commerce between tbe States and tbe Air Line railroad bill, which waa read at Sherman said the oommittee had not thought it necessary to make a written report in fovorof this bill, because a member of the House from Illinois, Mr. Washburne, had already made a report upon the subject, discussing tally the legal questions involved. The bill he said, proposed the charter of three railroads, one from Washington to New York, one from Washington to Pittsburg, and one from Washington to Cincinnati. Mr. Sherman made an elaborate argument in favor of the Air Line Railroad bill, showing first, the necessity for new roads, and secondly, the right of Congress to authorise the construction of them by virtue of Us right to regulate commerce between the States. On hU motion it was postponed until Monday next. Tbe Senate resumed the consideration ofthe bill for the relief 01 Sue Murfrey, of Decatur, Alabama, which was discussed without action until thrss o’clock,

qrrm/fVWf sxri vxiu wsaaw oisawj ■'***■» j j and in contempt of the action of Congress a deficiency In that appropriation of 9160,000 is now demanded. Not one dollar of which, I trust, will be voted. The Columbia Institute for the Deaf and Dumb, a private institution in this District. which has obtained nearly a half million dollars out of the Government, was given 912,500 for this fiscal year for instruction, etc., which was deemed ample and even generous, but with a familiarity with the whole action of Congress on this subject, the President of this private oorporation, with unparalleled effrontry, arraigns Congress for Its action and demands of the United States 917,600 more, as a deficiency for this year. There are other deficiencies estimated for, which will be scrutinized by the Appropriation Committee, before it reports any bill. But one thing is certain, if Congress oan not control the expenditures ofthe Government; if it oan not check the executive officers ot the Government in spending the public money, and if such officers are to be left practically to undermine the Government, then I say let Congress abdicate, and let the people be saved the expense of keeping thie expeneive and somewhat
ornamental Institution.
Mr. Washburne then gave the Items of
the Secretary of the Treasury’! estimates for the next fiscal year, and aaid that it will thus be seen that 9306,000,000 ia the amount asked for. It ia for Congress to determine how much of that sum It is absolutely necessary to appropriate to carry on the Governmeot. How much will It bet I will let the permanent appropriations stand as in tbe Secretary’s estimate, although I believe tbe amount of interest on the public debt is over stated at 92,000.000. The amount is probably 9128,600 676, which, we must remark, is fixed and definite. Then there is the other amount of 915,861,401,174 made up of the
items as set out In the estimate.
