Washington, May 7—After a preliminary contest for precedence of business, t.he house went irno a com mittee of the whole on the private calendar. The bill which gave rise to the most interesting discussion was one paying $200 to F W Haldeman. The report stales that during tbe war Halacman, then a boy of 12 years of ago, desired to join an Ohio regiment, but was refused muster on account of hts age and s zs. He, however, jjui- cl a-ad a uniform and served in the regiment a year, acting as bugler and performing ream duties. He is said to have performed a gallant service. Bragg, of Wisoonelu, in a sircastic speech, opposed the bill. He ridiculed the Idea of a boy too young to be mustered in fuifilling scout duty aim doing galiant service. Johnson,ot Indiana, and Weaver, of Iowa, defended the bill and com batted Brngg’s proposition that, a boy of the age of this one could not ren der valuable service in war. J ffineoii maintained ibat there hud been many inscanci s where boys had been as valuable ta men. Jouusou anu Bragg became Involved m a wrangle over war reminiscences, into which Wolford, of Kentucky, was also urawn. Finally a vote was taken on the amendment to the mil, but a Dumber of its opponen s refrained Irom vis ing, and the committee being left: without 8 quorum, rose. The house then took a reeetB till 7:30, the evening stweion to he for pension tolls, Tbe house, at its evening ssssiou, passed fifiy-flve pension bills, and at 9:50 o’clock adjourned until to morrow.

Thousands of columns of fiotion and slander have been circulated about him, and some highly spiced reasous for his stay have been given. These have been picked up, expanded, spun out and rewoven until they bore no resem blance even to the original rumor, much less to the existing facts. Tuts species of American literature is now cl siippearlng by sitter natural decay and the items have grown few and far between.
