Washington, April 18—Edmunds introduced in tho Senate this morning a resolution instructing the Judidary Committee to inquire into and report whether any corrupt or improper means had been used, or attempted, to influenco tho vote of any Senator, in respect to the bfll now pending for tho admission of Georgia, and that the committee have power to send for persons and papers—adopted. This is understood to refer to Bullock lobbying. The Star, of this evening, says it has been ru mored about the capitol that a prominent Senator was offered a Georgia State bond if he would vote against the Bingham amendment, and a son-in-law of another Senator offered a large sum of money to influence the vote of his father-in-law againBt that amendment.

Wabimnoton, April 18.—The State of New Mexico will be admitted this session, which will make thir ty-eight States. Revenue to-day, 8575,000. The Government has no advices regarding the Fenian raid on Canada. Coin in the Treasury, 8112,250,000, including 37,- 000,000 in coin certificates; currency balance, 810,- 250.000. The steamer Sabine landed at Gibraltar on the 22d nit. All well. No Southern nominations to-day. Gen. Samuel Brick has been assigned to General Terry, as Adjutant General. In explanation of the Georgia corruption resolu tion, the Star says: “It has been rumored about tbocapilt 1 that a prominent Senator was offered a Georgiy tate bond if ha would vote against the Bingham Amendment; and the son-in-law of an other nator was offered a large sum of money to influence the vote of bis father-in-law against that amendment. In both cases the lobbyist was sent away with a flea in his ear, and the Senators ap proached in the matter gave the information which led to the introduction of Mr. Edmonds' resolu tion. Washington, April 18,1870.—Sir: The Postmas ter General duly received yonr. favor of the 8th in stant, in which were enclosed circulars issued by one Bryan Tyson, intended to bo addressed to par ties bidding for contracts for the transportation of the mails, and which yon say have been scattered broadcast in tbe Southwest, to the injury of tho Department. Said Tyson having proposed by his circulars to enter into a combination to prevent the making of bids for mail contracts by other persons, the Postmaster General has lately issued an order to reject all bids submitted by Tyson. This is done in conformity with tbe 28th section of tbe act of July 2d, 1836—see statutes at large, volume 5, page 87, which provides tho only remedy for any injury the Department may have received. (Signed) BespectfuIIy, J. L. Fbench, Acting 2d Assistant Postmaster General. Washington, April 19.—Bevenue to-day 8139,000. Thomas Monroe has been appointed post-office agent for tho district comprising Louisiana and Texas, vice Taylor. The Transcontinental Railroad men had a hearing before the House Pacific Railroad Committee to day. No action. Stephen Preston, a white man, has arrived as the Hayticn Minister. Delano decides that the lat of May occurring on Snnday. bonds shall be dated May 2d. Col. O. A. Mack, recently appointed inspector of national cemeteries, will soon proceed Southward. The Senate Judiciary Committee to-day com menced the examination of witnesses in relation to the alleged attempts to secure tbe defeat of the Bingaam amendment by improper means. Judge James Hughes, Deputy Postmaster Porter, of this city, and H. J. Ramsdell. correspondent of the Cin cinnati Commercial, were examined. It ia under stood that evidence was elicited going to show that railroad bonds endorsed by the State of Georgia were offered by onteide parties to secure the votes of Senators against the Bingham amendment. Other witnesses havo been subpoenaed. A. E. Boone, who testified that be was compelled to leave home in consequence of his political opin ions, was before tbe Reconstruction Committee to day. He was met with affidavits that he left his homo in consequence of a private quarrel. Commissioner Delano has issued an order di recting that Thomson’s national revenue stamp can- celor be used upon instruments, documents, writ ings and papers mentioned and described in sched ule B, internal revenue law. This is tho only one of the machines prescribed by tbe Commissioner which ente tho date thr^gb the stamp and docu ment, folly identifying one with tho other. Reports have been current here that Justices Bradley and Strong, of the U. S. Supreme Court, would not sit on the rehearing of the legal tender cases, because objection wonld be made to them on account of being stockholders in railroad com panies owning bonds issued prior to the passage of the legal tender act, tho principal and interest of which, under the recent decision of tho Snpremo Court, were payable in gold, tbe proposed objection having been brought to tbe notice of the gentle men concerned. Judge Bradley has stated that he transferred ail his interest in such stocks imme diately after his confirmation, and Judge StroDg says it is his intention to dispose of the railroad shares which he now owns before the cose comes to a bearing. Mazatlan dates to the seventeenth have been received. Uaited States steamer Saranac, and English gunboat Reindeer are in port. The Government seized steamer Forward. Plea, sbo was in Vegas’ interest.

CoL Lucas Pento, an adherent of Lasado, who voluntarily surrendered himself, was shot Commotion upon tbe supposed advent of Vega is subsiding. The House is in session to-night on tho tariff bill —pig iron still pending. Washington, April 20.—Tho Georgia bill, as it passed the Senate is substantially as follows:— Georgia to be known as the Third Millitary District. Tbe present Government as provisional. The now Legislature shall be elected next fall, upon the or ganization of which Georgia may he admitted to re presentation in Congress. The President is author ized to suppress disorder—holding municipalities responsible for the loss to persons or property. Tho bill forbidding the organization of tbe Georgia mili tia is defeated. This hill now goes to tbe Houso. The Democrats were silent on the final vote. The nays were Boreman, Chandler, Drake Fenton, Flanagan, Fowler, Hamilton, of Texas; Harris, How ard, Howell, McDonald, Morton, Nye, Osborn, Ram sey, Bevels, Bice. Spencer, Stewart, Sumner, Thay er, Trumbull, Williams. Wilson, Yates; twenty-five. Tho vote shows a square defeat of tho extremists, and inconsequence the defeat of Governor Bullock, whose object is said to have been to continue the present pliant legislature in office during bis term. Tbe amendment ordering elections next fall for all elective officers of tho State was withdrawn before reaching a vote. The bill passed at half past two o’clock this morning. The Ohio Legislature is at the Mansion House, no speeches. Text of the Georgia bill as it passed the Senate: Whereas, great irregularities have been practised in the organization of the Legislature in tbe State of Georgia, both in its first organization and in the expulsion of certain members, aa well, also, as in its organization since the act of December last. Therefore, be it enacted, etc., that the existing government in the Slate of Georgia, is hereby de clared to be provisional, and the same shall con tinue subject to tbe provisions of the acts of Con gress of March 2d, 1865, and march 23,1867, and of July 19, 1877, until the admission of said State by law to representation in Congress; and for this purpose the State of Georgia shall constitute the 3d Millitaiy District. Szc. 2. And be it farther enacted, That in accor dance with (he provisions of and under the powers and provided in said set, sn sleotte Green Point yarda. Bhallbe held on the 15th day of November, 1870, and continue as tho President may designate, for all the members of the General Assembly of said State, provided for in tbe Constitution of said State, adopted by its Constitution on the lltb day of March, 1868, at which election all persons who by said Constitution are electors shall be entitled to vote,and said General Assembly eo-elected, shall as semble at the Capital of said State, on Tuesday tho 13th day of December, 1870, and organize prepara tory to the admission of the State to representation in Congress, and the powers and functions of the members of the existing General Assembly shall ceaso and determine on the said 13th day of Decem ber, 1870. Sec. 3. And be it farther enacted. That whenever it shall appear to the President from an application by the Legislature of any State, or by the Governor of such State when the Legislature cannot be con vened, that domestic violence prevails in any dty, county, or municipal organization in such State, that cannot be suppressed by tho local authorities, it shall bo the duty of tho President to sup press ■ such domestic violence, and for that pur pose he is authorized to employ tho military force of the United States, and any portion of tho militia of any State ho may deem necessary, and to exer- cise all such powers and inflict such punishment as may by the laws or other rules and articles of war be exercised or inflicted, in case of insurrection or invasion. Sec. 4. And be it further enacted, That so much of the act entitled “An act making appropriations for the support of the army, for the year ending June 30, 1868, and for other purposes,” approved March 2,1867, as prohibits tho organization arming, or calling into service, of the militia forces in tho State of Georgia, be, and tho same is hereby re pealed. Bevenue to-day 288,000. Tho Howard corruption investigation committee heard evidence regarding the negotiation of con gregational chnrch. It appears that tho Howard Uni- versi ty was first intended for a school under auspices of coDgregalional chnrch, but Howard famished tho necessary funds to build it and raise it to a univer sity under auspices of the Froedmen’s Bureau. The President nominated Pinckney Ross collec tor of customs, Pearl River, Mississippi. In the Supremo Court, appellants having with drawn their cases and no Judge concurring in form er opinion desiring reopening of Hepburn vs. Gris wold the former decision of the court on legal ten ders stands. It is stated that seven Senators have changed front on the San Domingo treaty and it is asserted that its early ratification is probable. The proceedings to-day in the Sypher and St. Mar tin case created intense excitement. Tho facts were: St. Martin had over 12,000 majority, and that Sypher received but 3000 votes from a constituency of 30,000. When the first vote seating Sypher was announced, he placed himself in the bar and the Speaker had the book open to administer the oath. The ceremory was interrupted by Brooks who cried: ‘The gentleman is a citizen of Pennsylvania.’’— Another member charged that the seating of Sypher was the seating of a creature with an iron interest. The Speaker wonld hear nothing. Stiles moved to adjorn. The votmg progressed, Sypher . gradually losing strength. Tbe Democrats voted for the final resolution as the best they could get. CoL Et. Mar tin was heartily congratulated on the result. The President appointed Edwin Downey post master at Brownesville, Texas. Tho Supreme Court adjourns Saturday, April 30 No arguments will be heard after the 26th. In the Senate Gilbert introduced a bill for steam mail service between Florida and Cuba. Tho rest of the day was devoted to the bilL Harris introduced a bill for a better organization of the District Court of Louisiana, which involves the division of the State into two judicial districts. Adjourned. CONGRESSIONAL. Washington, April .19.—Hoese.—A petition was presented requesting the Government to abandon tbe Louisville canal to private enterprise by somo echnicality. Sypher vs. St. Martin from Louisiana went over. The House is considering the New York Post Office bilk The Reconstruction Committee report nothing.— They await the action on Georgia. Butler, of Massachusetts, introduced a resolution abolishing the income tax, which was referred to the Ways and Means Committee. Tho New York postoffico was discussed two hours, when the caso of Sypher vs- St. Martin, contestants from Louisiana, was taken np. Kerr made a mas terly effort in behalf of the peoplo of Louisiana. Great interest attaches to tbo question, and the vote will be taken to-morrow morning. The chances seem to be that Sypher will not get the seat, and St. Martin being declared ineligible, tho seat re mains vacant Senate—Mr. Sumner presented a memorial re questing the land commissioner to provide home steads for recently enslaved people. Sir. Edmunds reported a bill enforcing the Fif teenth Amendment Georgia was resumed and Mr. Fowler proceeded to read a written speech. Chandler offered an amendment to the corruption resolntion, directing tbo Committee on tbe Judi ciary to inquire whether the rebels had attempted to use corrupt influences to secure votes on tho Georgia bill. Ferry objected, and tho motion went over. Chandler offered a resolution requesting tbe President to appoint two commissioners to open ne gotiations with tho peoplo of Winnepeg, with a view to annexation. The Georgia bill was resumed and discussed to recess, with Schurz on tho floor. 8 p. if.—Tho 8enato reassembled at half-past 7. A vote on tbo Georgia bill will doubtless bo reached efore morning. Schurz opposed tbo schemes of designing men within tho Republican ranks. Trumbull called attention to a recent speech made to a crowd in this city by a member of tho Senate, in which tho statement was made that the speaker has reconnoitred the Senate and tho Bingham amendment would bo defeated. He denounced this as an attempt to intrudo upon the Senate. Trumbull will probably speak an hour or two before the vote will bo taken. Washington, April 20.—House—Sypher is seated by a vote of 78 to 73. There was much excitement. Finally Farnsworth,who had voted “no."said ho had not examined the report, hut would follow.the report of tho Committee. He voted ayo. Two other doubtful men then voted aye, amidst strong protest from the democratic side. Speaker Blain sharply reproved Farnsworth for unparliamentary action in making remarks, while he was announcing his vote. The ayes and nays are progressing on tbe motion to reconsider the vote seating Sypher. There is a bare hope that the vote will be reversed. The motion to table the motion to reconsider was lost—79 to 83. The motion to reconsider is now progressing, which if carried will bring another vote on the direct question. The probabilitos this mo ment are rather against Sypher. The vote to reconsider ia carried, 85 to 79. The reporters in the gallery consider Sypher’s chance very feeble. Finally, tho House, by a vote of 95 to £8, voted there had been no valid election in the First Louis iana District. This voto was reconsidered, and the motion to reconsider was tabled, which finally dis poses of tho claim of General Sypher to a seat in the House. The Georgia bill, as amended by the Senate, was referred to the Reconstruction Committee, with several substitutes. •Pending the resolution to inform Warmouth of tbe vacancy in the First Louisiana District, the House adjourned. Senate nothing. Committees nothing. ^ GENERAL NEWS. Philadelphia, April 18.—The Schuylkill river rose four feet last night, and is still rising. A flood is impending.
