PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS.

The Senate Passes a Vetoed Measure and the Army Appropriation BilL Washington, Feb. 16. The Senate met at 11 o'clock, but it was half an hour afterwards before tho reading of yesterday's journal was completed, there being in the meantime a call of the Senate in order to obtain the attendance of a quorum. Mr. Dolph, from tho committee on public lands, reported back the Senate bill, ve toed by the President, for tho relief of Wm. R. Wrheaton aud Charles H. Chamberlain, of California, with a recommendation that the bill pass notwithstanding the objec tions of tho President, Mr. Dolph made an explanation of the facts, claiming that the President's objections were made under a misapprehension of them. The bill is to reimburse tho parties, formerly register and receiver of the land office in California, for clerk hire paid by them. The vote was taken and resulted yeas, 35; nays, 8. so two-thirds having voted in the aihrmative the bill was passed. On motion of Mr. Plumb it was ordered that after the army appropriation bill is disposed of the Senate snail take up aud pass bills on the calendar, unobjected to, for three hours. The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Sabin, calling on the Secretary of the Interior for a satement of his action toward discontinuing certain United States land offices, was taken up and agreed to. Tho House amendment to tho Senate bill granting a pesiou of $100 a month to tho widow of Major-general Kilpatrick was agreed to. Tho amendment reduced tho rate to $75. The Senate, at 12:25, resumed consideration of the army appropriation biiL Mr. Stewart offered an amendment, which was agreed to, appriatiug $187,500 for the purchase of three pneumatic dynamite guns, tif teen-inch calibre, with tho necessary machinery, ammunition and carriages, to be placed aud mounted for use on the Pacific coast. The item for $20,000 for officers' quarters at Columbus, O., was, onmotion of Mr. Allison, restored. A number of other amendments of minor importanco were agreed to and tho bill was then passed. The Senate then proceeded to the consideration of bills on the calendar unobjected to. The House bill as to the mcrcaso of th police force of the Districtof Columbiawas passed, with amendments. While this bill was under consideration, Mr. Hawley criticised tho commissioners lor permitting huge and unsightly structures to be erected on the public reservations along tho avenue as stands for spectators during tho inauguration ceremonies, and Mr. Harris remarked that they were equally distasteful to him. Other bills passed were: The House bill authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to 6ell block of land 18 in tho city of Houston, Tex.; the Houo bill to amend the act for tho reliof of the widow and children of Col.'Wm. R. McKee.lato of Lexington, Ky.; the House bill to pay 32,675 to the heirs of John II. Newman, late of Mississippi, on account of captnrod cotton. Tho conference report on tho bill to change the Eastern and Northern judicial districts of Texas was resented and agreed . After an executive session, tho Senate adjourned. .- Mnch Time Lost In Political Debate. WASHINGTON, Feb. 26. Having become aware, from past experience, that the rule setting apart tho hour between 10 and 11 for the consideration of measures by unanimous consent had becomo a dead letter, by reason of filibustering, very few members were in attendanco when the House was called to order this morning. A few messages from the President, vetoing various pension bills, haviug been read and referred, the Speaker proceeded to clear his table. - The bill for the opening to settlement of a portion of the Sioux reservation, in Dakota, .with the Senate amendments, having been laid before tho House, on motion of Mr. Peel, of Arkansas, the amendments .erq non-concurred in, and a conference ordered. On motion of Mr. Joseph, of New Mexico, the Senate bill was passed for the establishment of the Lincoln land district in New Mexico. The table having been cleared of business the Speaker, acting in conformity with the special order, recognized Mr. Abbott of Texas, who called up a bill for the erection of a public building at Fort Worth, Tex., but the recognition availed him little, for Mr. Bland, of Missouri, was instantly on his feet with a motion for half an hour's recess. In view of this motion, and con scious of the fact that the time of the House would be frittered away until 11 o'clock, Mr. Randall asked unanimous consent to report from the committee on appropriations the sundry civil bill, with the Senate amendments; but. aggrieved at the nullification of the special order, Mr. Biggs, of California, whose name stands high on the list of recognitions, objected, and the House relapsed into the condition of inaction which has characterized it so much of late. The hour of 11 o'clock having arrived Mr. Blaud withdrew his motion and Mr. Randall reported the sundry civil bilL The recommendations of the committee on appropriations relative to the Senate amendments were r greed to,, a conference was ordered and Messrs. Randall, Forney and Foran were appointed conferees. Effort was made to call up the contested election case, and the Hons went into committee of the whole Mr. Dockery, of Missouri, in the chair on the deiiciency appropriation bill. Mr. Sayers, of Texas, read a letter which Mr. Scott, of Pennsylvania, had received from Daniel Lamont, stating, that when he accepted the position of private secretary to tho Prcddent he had a full knowledge of the nay attached to it. He preferred not to be the oenetioiary of retroactive legislation, and he therefore asked that the committee recede from its amendment appropriating 6,000 for his benefit. Mr. Sayers asked leave to strike out the amendment, but Mr. Hayes, of Iowa, objected. An amendment was adopted directin g the Attorney-general to report to tho Fiftyfirst Congress the legal status of the 2 per cent, claims of Illinois and Indiana. The committee then rose, and the bill was passed, tho Lamont amendment boing eliminated. Tho conference report on the pension-appropriation bill was presented and agreed to. Tho House then went into committee of tho whole Mr. Dockery, of Missouri, in tho chair on the Indian appropriation bill. Mr. Kennedy, of Ohio, referred to a speech upon Southern elections, made by him in July last. No answer to that speech had been made until a few days ago, when Mr. Crisp, of Georgia, had alluded to the speech of a man whose name he believed was Kennedy. In reply to this Mr. Kennedy savagely denounced the appointment of Mr. Crisp to tho chairmanship of the committee on elections, when it was an apparent fact that he had been sleeted to Congress by tho samo sort of infamy and fraud that had returned Mr. Carlisle. Mr. Taulbeo and Mr. Bland several times raised the point of order that Mr. Kennedy was not keeping his remarks within the authorized rules, but the objections were overruled by the chairman, and Mr. Kennedy continued his attack upon the tactics pursued by Mr. Crisp in the contested election cases, finally dnf ting into a review of Southern methods generally. In closing ho said he would rather have an honest black man's government in the country than a dishonest white man's government. While the beringed and bejeweled fingers of the Southern aristocracy had been endeavoring to pull down tho Nation, not a single instance could bo cited when the black people had not been loyal to to the Constitution and devoted to the flag. History would forever record the fact that a black man had run the boats past Ft. Moultrie and that a black arm had sustained the flag of the Union on top of Ft. Pillow. Applause on Republican side.l In Arkansas, only last week: four members of the Legislature had resigned, because they had been elected by fraud, intimidation and violence. Tho same election which returned them to the Legislature has returned a member to this House who had not yet tendered his resignation. He then quoted General Rosser's declaration that a Southern gentlemen could whip a Yankee eyen- time, and suggested that at the point of a bayonet, aud at the end of a sabret and in three hundred battle-fields theNorth had punched that idea out of tha South. If Lee and Beauregard and Rosser had been hung at the fcibbct, as they ought; to hav been

hung after the contest was over, they would not now be teaching rebellion and treason to tho young men of the South. Gen. Bradley Johnsou had said that tho government was controlled by tho confederates. Ho thanked God that control waspassingaway, and that tho confederates would be compelled to take backseats. He congratulated the country that the other side of tho chamber wouldbo free from tho dictation.- to which it had been subjected a dictation which had been humiliating not only to tho House, but to the entire land. Mr. Crisp and Mr. Breckinridge, of Arkansas, replied to Mr. Kennedy at length, the latter gentleman correcting severalinaccuracie m Mr. Kennedy's remarks. After further debate on the subject by Messrs. Turner, of Georgia, and Romeis, the reading of the Indian appropriation bill by sections was entered upon, but in a few moments the committeo rose and the House took a recess, with the understanding that consideration of the bill would be resumed at the evening session. There was a very small attendanco of members when the Houso met in the evening Mr. Sayers, of Texas, in the chair for further consideration of the Indian appropriation bilL Matters ran along very smoothly, interrupted only now and then, when some member briefly expressed his views upon tho proper policy to be pursued in treating with the Indians. Mr. Peel oflered an amendment appropriating $1,012,000 for payment to the Semii?olo band of Indians for the land in tho Indian Territory, ceded by that band to the United States. Pending the vote, the House, at 10:30, adjourned. OBITUARY. CoL George IT. Frledley, Onf of Indiana's Leading Lawyers and Politician. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Bloomington. Ind., Feb. 26. The community was startled to-day by the announcement that Col. George W. Friedle', of Lafayette, had dropped dead at the National Hotel, here. During the morning, Colonel Friedley was in court lookiug after some railroad cases, and a few minutes before 13 o'clock went to tho National Hotel for his dinner. He was seated in the

wuco reading, when ho was noticed to throw back his head and gasp for breath. He was carried to an adjoining room and placed upon a bed, but by this time life had fled. Physicians report the trouble as heart disease, and his friends think death was brought on by overwork. At a meeting of tho Bloomington bar this afternoon appropriate resolutions of respect were adopted, aud a committee appointed to tako charge of, tho remains while in the city. Mr3. Friedley arrived at at 4 o'clock this afternoon from Lafayette. Tho funeral will tako place at Bedford, his homo up to within a few years ago. Georgo Wr. Friedley was bom on a farm in Harrison county, Indiana, Jan. 1. 1840. He attended tho common school of his native county, and afterward graduated from Hartsville University, when ho was twenty years of age, haying taken a full scientific course. On leaving tho university he commenced reading law with Judge John R. Morrledge, of Clariuda, la. After studying two years, the war breaking out, ho entered the army as a private in Company K, Fourth Iowa Infantry, and was elected its second lieutenant, but after serving one year he was compelled to resign on account of ill-health, and returned to Indiana. In May, lSfr, he reerilistod in the Sixty-seventh Indiana Infantry, was elected captain of Company I, aud from that timo was actively eu gaged until the close of tho war, serving with distinction throughout. He participated in tho battles of Pea Ridge, Mumfordsville, Ky.t tho attack on Yicksbiirg by herman from Chickasaw bayou, in December, 102; capture of Arkansas Post, Jan. 11, through tho siege ami rapture of Vicksburg, and iu the battles of Port Gibson. Champion Hills and Black River Bridge. During tho forty-seven days' siege of Vicksburg and tho Vicksburg campaign ho served ou tho (staff of General Burbridgc, of Kentucky. After the fall of Vicksburg ho was at the capture of Jackson, and tho Thirteenth Army Corps, to which he belonged, was then transferred to tho Army of the. -Gulf. "At the closo of the Vicksburg campaign; the colonel of the regiment to which Mr. Friedlev belonged was mustered out on account of absence, and Captain Friedley, although the youngest captain in the regiment, was elected in his place. The colonel, afterward returning, however, was reinstated. Colonel Friedley was then on tho Gulf, in the Red River campaign, at tho siece aud capture of Fort Gaines and Fort Morgan. Alabama, and at thtf storming of the works at Fort Blakely, the last pitched battle of the war, April 9,. 1865. A consequence of its fall was the capture of Mobile. Ho then, with his regiment, raarche.d to Texas, and was mustered out at tho close of the war in tho following August. In tho fall he returned to Indiana and settled at Bedford, where ho commenced practiciug.law, and soon acquired a Stato reputation as an orator. As a criminal lawyer he had few equals, and enjoyed a largo practice in that line until four years ago, when he became the general solicitor of tho Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road. He received many honors at the hands of the people, by whom ho was regarded as a man without reproach, a gentleman of courteous manuers and of the strictest honor, integrity and uprightness. In 1870 he was elected to the lower House of tho Legislature, and served on the Judicial committee of tho House during that session. With others he induced thirty-four members to resign, thereby frustrating a measure brought by the Democratic party to defeat Governor Morton. In 1872 ho was elected to the Senate over Judge Frank Wilsou, for Monroe and Lawrence, designated the University district." As tho special session of the Legislature oonvened in the November following, thero being a vacancy in tho oth'ceof Lieutenant-governor, ho was elected President of the Senate. He served through a term of four years as Senator. In the memorable Hayes-Tilden campaign, of 187G, he was chairman of the Republican State central committee, and in 1880 was a delegate at large totheChicagoconvention. His Republicanism was of tho ardent kind, that left no doubt in the minds of his party associates as to the stand he would taKe in political questions. He was liberal in his religious views, and took a great interest in public schools, the town of Bedford being especially indebted to him for securing the fine graded schools of that place. In person, he presented an imposing appearance, being six feet three inches in height, and well, built and proportioned. Ho was married Jan. 10, 18C7, to Miss Edith M. Kelly, daughter of a Bedford merchant, who, with four daughters, survives him. In late years, Mr. Friedley was much of his time in Chicago, but the residence of himself and family was at Lafayette.

A largo m ajority of the Indiana visitors will go singly and on their own 4cconu helieving that in a crowd such as will gather at tho national capital next week a man can look out for himself better if ho flocks by himself than if . he joins his fortunes with any particular company.

IT GAVJ3 THE CLEW. of Counterfeiters Revealed by Chance Dropping of a Letter. Plans tho In transferring household goods Monday afternoon from No. 236 English avenue that had been sold by Ida Fonna to McLain & Davis, 193 East Washington street, a letter fell from some bed clothing. In making her sale to Mr. McLain tho woman's actions aroused his suspicions, particularly as sho sai I the goods had been bought two weeks ago on the installment plan in Cleveland, from which city she camo with her husband. McLain saw that the goods were not such as were handled here, and communicated what he knew and thought to detective Kerliu. Tho detective took the case, and was with the driver of McLain's wagon when tho latter picked up the letter. Ho and McLain read it, and then turned it ovor to the United States marshal. Tho letter was written by John J. Bachelor, alias Martin, and directed tho Fonna woman to purchase pulverized glass and t;la;ter of Paris and then to put the molds ebe had innercaroina box and the bcx in her trunk. After this was done sho was ordered to go to Columbus, O., where she would meet Bachelor and L. J. Kerns, abas Stewart. These directions were strongly suggestive of counterfeiting operations, ana the marshal told his deputy. Stein, to shadow Miss Fonna. That ohicer early Monday evening saw her go 10 a drag store and purchase tho articles named in the letter. She then went to the Union Passenger Station and bought a ticket to Columbus. By this time the ofiicer had a search warrant in his possession and obtaining tho woman's trunk found therein the molds and other appliances for making spurious coin. Bhe was arrested, and after a night in jail Baid that both Bachelor and Kerns were engaged in counterfeiting. Sho had known Bachelor only three weeks, but her friendship for Kerns began four years ago. Sho caino here recently with Bachelor, whoso ostensible business was to sella pillow-sham holder. Before coming here they had a room at 416 Walnut street, Cincinnati, where both Bachelor and Kerns once worked for the O. & M. railway. It was Bachelor, she says, who told Kerns about making counterfeit coin, and they had been experimenting with but poor uccc$3, as the dollars found in tho woman's trunk showed. A warrant for tho arrest of the two men was issued yesterday, and they were found at Shelbyville, from which place they were to go to Columbus to meet Miss I onna. The men had with them a kit of burglars' tools. They wero brought here last night and committed to jail by Commissioner Van Buren to await further examination at 11 o'clock this morning.
