The Military Committee are refuting small bills. Senate,—The Senate is engaged in a short contest in reference to the Indian Bureau bilL The friends of the bill favor its reference to the Military Committee, while its opponents desire that it be referred to the Indian Com mittee. Among the latter are several Demo crats and Thayer, Trumbull and Morrell, of Maine. The Senate did not reach the Virginia elec tion bifl in time for noon papers. Washington, December 10.—Mr. Elliott, of Massachusetts, succeeds Washbume us Chairman of the Committee on Commerce. The Government expenses during Novem ber is, civil list, $2,852,000.

The Virginia election biU as passed the House directs the meeting of the Legislature in September. It was not reached in the Senate to-day. Nothing will be done regarding the Lou isiana election contests until after the recess. Senator HiU’s credentials will probably re main with the Senate Judiciary Committee until after the recess. The increase in the public debt ’amounts to $11,902,000. Currency in the Treasury, $18,250,000. House—A bill, authorizing the sale of Har per’s Ferry, was passed; also, selling Chat tanooga Eolling MiU to Chattanooga Iron Company. A bill establishing a system of national military education was tabled. Speaker Colfax announced the following additions to committees: On Commerce, Kel logg, of Alabama; on Eeconstruction, Morris, of Alabama; on Military Affairs, Dewees, of North Carolina and Sypher, of Louisiana; on Freedman’s Affairs, Bowen, of South Caro lina; on Education and Labor, Whettmore, of South Carolina; on Kevolntionary Pensions, Jones, of North Carolina, Clift, of Georgia, and Blackburn, of Louisiana; on Kevolution- ary Claims, Dockery, of North Carolina, Goss, of South Carolina, Edwards, of Georgia; on Mileage, Young, of Georgia; on Enrolled Bills, Collis, of Alabama; on Expendi tures in State Department, Losh, of North Carolina, Tuft, of Georgia; on Ex penditures of Navy Department, Buck- ley, of Alabama, and Gove, of Georgia; on Expenditures of Post Office Department, Newsham, of Louisiana; on Expenditures of Interior Department, Price, of Alabama, and Prince, of Georgia; on Expenditures on Pub lic Buildings, Haughey, of Alabama. A bill relating to bridging navigable streams was argued to a great length, and finally re ferred to the Committee on Roads and Ca nals. A resolution for a recess from the 23d inst. to January 4th was adopted. The claim of Joseph Segar, after great effort to throw it into the Court of Claims, was re ferred to the Committee on Claims. Various bills were referred, and the House adjourned to Monday. Senate.—Tho committee to investigate the corrupt influence used to procure impeach ment votes was renewed. Standing committees were elected; there are no important changes. A motion to add a member to the Pacific Railroad Committee, giving the South a representation on the Committee, was post poned until to-morrow. Mr. Sumner’s Georgia biU was referred to the Judiciary Committee. Mr. Drake’s bill regarding the rank of General and Lieutenant-General was re ferred. The Military Committee bill restoring the Bureau of Indian Affairs to the War Depart ment was, after a sharp struggle, referred to the Committee on Indian Affairs. Several Senators intimated if the bill went to the Indian Committee it would never be heard of. Mr. Wilson moved the repeal of the -law compeUing all military orders to pass through the General of the Army; referred to Military Committee. Mr. Hill’s credentials were referred to the Judiciary Committee with papers and me morials in the case. Mr. Eice made an effort to put on passage his biU, arming the militia, but failed. It was referred to the Military Committee. The continuation of the message was then read, and the Senate adjourned to meet Monday. _ The Case of Jeffebson Davis.—The Nation al Intelligencer is of opinion that it wiU be one or two years before the Supreme Court reaches the Davis case. In an article in Mon day's issue upon the result at Richmond, it uses the foUowing language: “In the very novel and important issue joined the Court appears to have divided, Chief Justice Chase sustaining the motion to quash, but his vote tied and offset by that of Judge Underwood, so that the case is certi fied to the United States Supreme Court for its decision. According to the usual order of causes it would take one or two years for this cause to be reached. The very important cause of the teshoath for suffrage in Missouri, appealed by Gen. Frank Blair, has already been pending for years before the Supreme CourtT and still is not reached. We may, therefore, assume that the case of Mr. Davis in its present shape, will not be hurried either here or at Richmond.” New Orleans is exhilarated by the crop re turns. The Times exultantly says: “Three hundred thousand bales of cotton have been received at our wharves since the opening of the season. At the average rate this import ought to produce thirty millions of dollars, which is certainly a large sum, that ought to give the present business season a good start. At this rate we onght to receive over 500,000 bales by Christmas. Sugar; too, is coming in very freely, and the crop promises to run up to if not over„ one hundred thousand hogs heads.” Legal Tenders.—The outstanding circula tion of legal tender notes is nearly $356,000, 000, and fractional currency $32,000,000; total, $388,009,000; out of use as circulating meiiinm, $126,000,000; total amount of aU kinds outstanding, $565,000,000 — >•■>♦* A petition from prominent Radicals in Virginia has been drawn up to he presented to Congress, asking for a continuance of the Freedmea’s Bureau in. that State. A Great Invention or Discovery.—Hotues Made Fireproof. The new Theatre DeUo Logge, in Florence, is now completed. All of the timber and wood-work in that theatre was prepared by the Borghi process; aU the coverings of the seats and all the scenery were tims made non- inflammable ; and, that no doubt might linger as to the perfect safety of the building, two days before it was opened to the pnblic some inflammable material was carried on the stage, and an attempt made to set the theatre on fire, which ignominiously and totally failed. The proprietor of the theatre invited his friends to witness the experiment; the stage was set with a drawing-room scene, the wings and back being of ordinary scenery; ami to this fire was applied, and eveiy one left the stage. The flames spread quickly, consumed the scenery which had not been subject to Borghi's process, and then stopped short and died out, leaving the prepared scenery, the flies, the ropes and the stage un scorched. No effluvia from the prepared Bub- stances is perceptible even to the most fas tidious nostrils, althongh night after night the theatre has been crowded and the tem perature has been high.—New York IVorld. Democratic Tactics in Congress.—A Wash ington letter to the Baltimore Gazette says: I have great satisfaction in announcing the fact that the members of the Democratic and Conservative party in Congress have resolved that they will not make fools of themselves in the coming session of Congress. The mem bers generally argue thus: The great people of this great conntry have by a solemn vote invested certain men with the power to do as they please. Very well; let us see what they wiU do. Give them a wide range. When ever called npon we shaU conscientiously vote upon propositions as they may come up.— Beyond this no responsibility rests upon us, and we shaU take care that no impediment is placed in the way of a fair trial of the poUcy of our opponents (God save the mark !) The word seems to be “ Go ahead! who’s afeard V” The some correspondent says: In the mean time, I think it necessary to apprise your readers, as a legitimate result of “non-intervention" in things which don’t concern us, that a most intimate radical rela tionship has been hurst asunder by means entirely outside of toadyism on the part of Democratic statesmen. Contrary to all ex pectation, the Man Friday of Grant hns sud denly been thrown overboard. Mr. Wash bume, notwithstanding what Yates may say, is now scarcely npon speaking terms with the “ coming man." Some attribute this dire catastrophe primarily to Donnelly’s influence, derived indirectly from the Fenian Brother hood: others to the excessive egotism and domineering demeanor. of this second War wick. Be all this as it may, Schenck has had sufficient power utterly to demolish the pre tentions demands of the Hlinois member. The Georgia Contested Seat in the House.—The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, under date of the 7th inst., says: Two interesting cases, embracing. some features not hitherto brought to the attention of Congress, were referred to the House com mittee on elections to-day. These cases come up respectively from the States of Goorgia and Tennessee. In the former case Mr. Christ}’ was elected to represent the sixth dis trict in Congress, the election having been held under the reconstruction laws. Gover nor BuUock withheld the certificate of election from C'hristv on the ground that he was dis qualified by the fourteenth amendment to the constitution, and gave it to John A Wimpey, who had the next highest number of votes, holding that as Mr. W. was qualified, he was the legally olected representative. General Meade, the commander of the military dis trict, gave the certificate to Christ}-, and it remains for the election committee to deter mine which certificate is the proper one, and also whether the Governor ot a Southern State can disregard the clearly expressed wish of a majority of voters in a district, and of his own volition reject a repx-esentative be cause in his judgment he is not qnalified. From Mexico.—The overflow of the Rio Seco has caused that river to return to its an cient bed. The towns of Comaticalisco and Parosa are entirely destroyed, and the towns of Cardenas and Canauaca have suffered greatly. The warehouses in San Juan and Bautista were under water, and boats were navigating the streets. The coinage of new national specie has been commenced in San Luis Potosi. The inhabitants of the State of Leon are again in arms. Tulancingo has been attacked, and two soldiers killed. Earth quakes continue in Iturbide. As an instance of the difficulty of trans ferring delicate shades of meaning in trans lating one language into another, may be mentioned the oft quoted line, ‘ ‘ Frailty, thy name is woman,” which a Frenchman ren dered, “ Mademoiselle Frailty is the name of the lady ! ” While a German, who attempted Coleridge’s “ Ancient Mariner,” could give it no better title in his own tongue than “ The Old Sailor.” Broke Jail.—On Thursday night last, the prisoners incarcerated in one wing of the Marion County (Fla.) jail, battered down the door and made their escape, carrying with them the blankets newly furnished by the Sheriff of said county.—Ocala Banner. Said a negro tax-collector to a white man in Alabama: “How de debel does you white folks s’pose we cnHud people is gwme to live ef you doesn’t pay your taxes?” PUBLISHED FOR INFORMATION.
