as to who will be the

"standard bearer" of the Republican party, in the campaign of 1872, are beginning to take a wide range but it would not surprise us if "the coming man" should be one whose name has not yet been mentioned in that connection.

WAaHiNGToar^ March. 10.

Mr. Dawes offered a resolution increasiag tbe number of. members of the Commute on Public Building* and Groundi to aiae, and including within its jurisdiction all public buildinaa being contracted bythe goveniBteat .adopted.

Mr. €kager iatrodooea a joint reeolatloo coaatrniac the Interaal Revenue lav of July: 18th,,1870, so a*, te provide foa admiseioa of aaimab specially imported for breeding purposes, free of dnty, from the Dominion of Canada paved.

Hill introdqeed a bill to abolish Mr. the franking {privilege and repeal them come tax referred.

Mf. Morey offe.-ed a resolution for the appointment of a select committee of five members oa the subject of construction and maintenance of a complete and oflfcetivesvstem of levees on-the MiMisaippi River, with authority to sit during re-

Mr. Dawes objected to the last clause of the resolution. Mr. Morey explained that the committee woold sit without any expense to the government.

Mr. 'Dawes remarked, in that case it woold be indeed a select eommittee.-r-(Laughter.)

The resolution Was modified so as to provide that there should be no expense to the goTernment in connection with the Mmmittee, and so modified, was adopted.

Mr. Finkelnburg introduced bills to authorise and r«nlate the coBstruetion of bridges, across the Mississippi, Missouri aad Ohio ritere, and to amend the act regulating the carriage of passengers by steamships referred.

Mr. Dawes introduced a deficiency bill, appropriating $141,555, and proceeded.to explain how It became necessary in the first item to pay additional clerks in the Pension office. It was necessitated by the bill of last session granting pension to soldiers of the war of 1812. The next, item was for a deficiency of $5,000 in the contingent fund of tn'e House. The necessity for that arose from the fact that since tne last appropriation of $15,000 for^ that fund, $10,000 had been, paid out under resolutions of the House to contestants of. seats. making the gross sum $114,374 pnid from time-to time during the 1« Congress to persons whom the BTb'usc Tid decided hw no right' to a dollar of it. The item of .$5,000 for Schledt dues, was the difference in the value of gold and paper money on an amount stipulated in a treaty. Another item was for the salary of an officer created about twihhonthB ago, and not provided for in the general appropriation bills.

Mr. Cox suggested that the House should make allowance not only for ps cuniary deficiencies, but for moral, mental, and other deficiencies in the Committee on Appropriations.

Mr. Dawes retorted that if Mr. Cox were able to understand plain English, he would aot have bean at any loss to know why the deficiencies provided for in the bill had occurred. To an ordinary comprehension the matter was sufficiently plain.

Mr. Cox replied, to an ordinary comprehension deficiency, bills were entirely Wrong in principle and in detail, and that somebody ought to challenge them.

Mr. Niblack recognized the duty of the opposition to be, to oppose everything that needed opposition, but be thought good taste as well as success in the enterprise itself should perhaps suggest little "discriminations.

Mr. Cos—How does the gentleman know what the bill contains, until we challenge it.

Jlr. Niblack—I know aH about it. Mr. Cox—Why didn't you say so? Mr. Niblack—Because you got the start of me. (Laughter.)

Mr. Taffe offered an amendment adding an item of $25,000 for a Postoffice building at Omaha, Nebraska adopted. The bill then passed.

Mr. Hale moved to go into Committee Of the, Whole on the blu to repeal duties on salt, and moved that all debate there, on under the five minute rftle cease in forty-five minutes.

[ht

discussion. He thought there should be 30 minutes allowed foe discussion of each amendment.

Mr. Wood remarked that the proposi

discussion on each amendment, and would bring forward the .wholes tariff bill, 160mprising manV hnndrW frticllH, and propocM amefiduMt hs to-each of them, aad ma|te a .gratify that gentleman, would be to virtually ibandftn the joteresUjrf the pe defeat'the will bf the House, whi repeal these duties befbtft it adjourned.

Mr. Kelley intimated that he was quite rfe to speak for himself. -lir/Wood Te^ied that tlfc^aH Mtm t«ry well .that ge*aemas -capMitv not only to spew tor juaNH, but tafaave the'trorae appear the better reason^ and adopt parliamentai7 strategy to defeat, properdin ensures.

The 'motion to limit discussion to 45 fainuiciB fas agreed to, and the motion to go into Committee, of the Whole was then agreed 'to, and the&>uaa at 2 o'clock went into Committee of the "Whole, Mr. Dawes in, the chair, and resumed consideration of the bill to repeal the duties on: saltand coal.

Mr. Cox submittad some statistics in reference to the anthradto trade. He re ferred to the busltlese 'Ol time eolliiry in Lehigh county. PeansylvaBia, which wis organised in 1859, which increased its Stock to $60,4)00: in I860, Which ia 1861 paid 15 per cenV profit, and reserved.a prMainlia in 1862 paid 85 per cent, ana imaged a lar|^r surplus then wg« 4eredits atock raising it to $500,000, and 14 per oetit. on ittatiamswd oai"pt one dollar ia1 c*ih had own!

Mr. Garfield supported the bill, and referred to the argument of Mr. Blair, that coal must take salt, aad aalt take something else by the hand, and all interests uaita their forces.

Mr. Stevenson moved to amend by putting lumber, timber and wood of all kiads oa the-free list.

After further discumion by Messrs. Kelley and Hale, debate ended. Mr. Leach moved to amend the bill by reducing internal tax oa manufactured tobacco to 12 centa per pound, negatived.

Mr. Myers moved to make the inter nal tax oa manufactured tobacco 16 centa per pound agreed to.

Mr. RandiJl's amendment to repeal the duties on tea and cofiee was agreed to. This actios oa the part of the committee ifasfeTored and supported by the opponents of the bill, for the purpose of loading it down w|th amendments, and thus defeating it.

SENATE.

Tn the absence of the Vice President on motion of Mr. Sumner, Mr. Anthony was unanimously chosen President

pro

he Senate, and the Secretary was directed to communicate the fact to the President of the United States and to the House of Representatives,. and adjournment until Monday was defeated by a tie vote.

Mr. Howe asked unanimous consent of the Senate to proceed to the election of the Standing Committees of the Senate.

Mr. Wilson objected. The chair rulra that as the motion related to the organization of the Senate, it was a question of privilege, and therefore did not require unanimous consent.

Mr. Howe moved to proceed to the election af committees, and the motion was agreed to.

Mr. Howe then moved to suspend the 35th rule of the Senate, requiring election of Standing Committees by ballot.

Mr. Wilson objected to suspension of the rules. Mr. Howe said the usual method of electing committees was by suspension of the rules, but that any member had a right to insist that the election should be by ballot, though that would subject the Senate to the trouble of ballots.

Mr. Sherman—That would subject the

Senate to the trouble of preparing ballots, Mr.* Sherman said the ballot must be takeUj if any member insisted on it.

Mr. Conkling called for the reading of the thirty-fifth, rule, which was read by the secretary.

Mr. Howe then moved that the Senate proceed by-ballot to elect a chairman of the Committee on Finance, whereupon Mr. Wilson withdrew his objection,,-aad Mr. Howe withdrew his motion just niade, and submitted a resolution with. a.list of Standing Committee^ determiaed upon by 4he Republican caucus.

-f:

The list has been published. ,.:L The vacancy, for. a Democrat upoa .th^ iCommittee oa Manafpictures was filled by Blair.

Mr. Davis, of West Virginia, was assigned to the Committee on Agriculture. Mr. Schura moved to postpone further consideration of the Committees until tomorrow. ,, j'

Mr. Sumner—before that motion is put, I wish my friend:.($churs) would.,allow me to make another motion in the nature «fesuggestion.

Mr. Schura withdrew his motion.. Mr. Sumner proceeded—I ask that my name be eliminate^ from the Committee on Privilegea, aod Elections. I observe that I-am placed at the head of that imortant -Committee, apd I most respectlully ask to be excased from, "arving. I presume it is better fpr- me, ,before the! Senate acts on. the report, to have ,th^t. amendment made. I therefojre ask r(that the report be amended by striking, mf name from the Committee.

Mr.. Sherman, said, after the committees were organiaed^ay if Senator insisted on being relieved from servioe on a 00m-. mitteoi the Senate would, ajp a maitsr of course, grant the request, but it was net usual ito allow such request before tlie committjees were agreed on as a whole by the Sejaate. {Ie would vote to excuse the Senator from- Massachusetts, but he hoped that Seaator wouid defer his motion until vots on the:pending question was. taken. ,s

Mr. Blair, of Mk^ugaa, offered ah' amendment reducing the duty on salt to 10 cents per 100 pounds in bulk, and: ^6 cento per 100 pounds in sacks, He said that his opposition to the bill Was based updn his Unwillingness to go1, into-the question of the tariff, In this! matter. He counselled the House not to follow the lead of any man in assailing the tariff in parts, for he assured tha House there «as not a single item, in the tariff bill that aould stand alone and by itself. It was "only because thef were parts- of a system that they could be sustafned at aH.

Mr Sumner .replied, that in proposing the amendment to the proposition, he was exercising a -very ordinary'and reasonable right. Hi* declined to withdraw it, but proceeded toiMlvooate it as not only in order, but eminently proper. He held that the Saoate ahould know before acting dn the report, if a Senator was not disposed to act ia the place assigned, Hewotikl say to the Senator froot Ohio, (Sherasan) that after twenty years' service-ia thie Chamber, he (Sumner) had a. right' to expect that hk associatas would aot im^ pose on him a new claasaf duties, when he* expresaly stated that they wese.not^ «dcoMtoliit^ ni s't.4dip a'*}

The ChaiV declared Mr. ~SamiSAht motion to be in order, but that in regard to the practice' of thk fleaafe, tb* 8*nator frOTn OhIo (8hermsn) Was eorreet in his statement.

motion rasalte# ia twewty-ooe Senators rising in ths affirmative, and'twenty-nine in the negative aot agreed to.

The qaMion recurring oa the adoption of the resolution of Mr. Schura, explained the reasons for which he moved petit ponemeat. He said it was well known to the country that there were certain dissgreementf in regard to the appointment of these committees now submitted to the Senate, and his motion was made ivith the intention of trving the last chance to reconcile these oLtagreements, aad to pro* vent the possible excitement that might grow but of it. That' last chance had been denied, and the resolution of Mr. Howe Was now before the Senate for debate. It would bt noticed that in the resolution a change of some importance has been made in the important Committee on Foreign Relations. The late chairman, the Senator from Massachusetts, (Sumner) was his personal friend, and while bound to him by intimate per* sonal relations, he (Schurs,) could say at the same time that there were persoaal relations otherwise than friendly. Hu judgment, on the question would not fab altered. He thought he spoke the unanimous sentiment or the Senate, aad he would, go further, and say that he spoke the unanimous sentiment of the country, when he asserted that the duties devolving on the chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relatione had beea fulfilled by the Senator from Massachusetts with great credit to liiaHelf and the committee, aad with gen seal -satisfaction to the country. He waaiooked upon in the Senate as the member of the Senate who, by study aad training, was ths meet eminently fitted tofiu inst pesitioa, above all others. The lfatibn substituted ia the place of that Senator,^the Seaator Arom Pennsylvaaia, aow ia his seat (Cameron)- whose profound studies of international law aad geaeral experieaoe, especially in thediplomatic service, fitted him for the place, and with whom at their head the committee would in the highest degree enjoy the confidence of 'the country, hot be (Schurs) was free to say, that that gentleman was not so vastly superior to the Seaator from Massachusetts, that his appointment would for a moment be entertained on that acoount. It was evident that there was something else. When a movement was made to degrade the eminent member of the Senate, it was but just to that member, to ihe&nate, and to the whoie country, that the real reasons for which such a change was proposed should be laid bare to the public gaze. He would, therefore, ask the Senator who had introduced the resolution, (Howe) what were the reasons why such a change was made.

Mr. Stewart [ssidej—I would not au-

Several. Senators—"No, don't." Mr. Howe said, on one hand he was asked a question, and on the other appealed to, to not answer it, and in deference to that rule of courtesy which he had sought to make a rule of life, be would make a civil answer to civil questions. He would briefly state the reasons so far as he knew them, and he certainly knew them as well as any Senator. No question had been raised as to the ability of the Senator from Massachusetts, and no pretension had been made that he was surpassed in any reipect.

CAUCUS OF REPUBLICAN SENATORS. WASHINGTON,

March 10.—Republican

Senators held a caucus this morning, when a motion was made to reconsider their action of yesterday, in adopting the report of the Committee on the Standing Committee. The reason given for this motion was, that much dissatisfaction was produced among some of the Republicans in consequence of the removal of Sumner from the Chairmanship of the Committee oa Foreign Relations: The discussion, which was very' spirited, terminated in the biting of the motion on the table, the majority being two, several Senators not fOttng.

After adjournment of the Seriate this p. x., another Republican caucus irill be held,' to consider What business should be brought befor? Congress. bos",' lA Democratic caucus was held this A.
