XUfcfcUltj VLctegcaplj attfc 3tautm<d & iUcc^'-cwQ^r, FROM WASHINGTON. Washi soios, June 20 —In tho Senate, Mr. Brown introduced n bill appropriating $75,000 for a postoffico end custom house building at Brunswick, Ga. Referred to the committee on publio bnlldio^s. Mr. Allison, from the appropriations oommittee, reported back the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill, with amendments, and gavo notioo that he would move its o nsideration to-morrow. It provides for an aggregate of $20,200,000, being an increase of $220,000 over the amount of the bill as passed by the House. The bill, with sundry tables showing- the changes mads by the Senate committee, was ordered printed. Mr. Hale presented the conference re port on the West Point military appropri ation bill. Read and adopted. Mr. Pendloton moved to take np his res olution c ncerniug political assessments. ‘ After tom opposition the resolution was taken up. It instructs the committee on civil service aud retrenchment to inquire whether any attempt is being made to levy or ooileet assessments for political purposes from government employes ' | J etc. Mr. Pendleton then read and commented in detail npon each of its state ments, to show that the nndenied purposo was to levy contributions on government employes under the guise of a demand for voluntary contributions. At two o'clock the debate on the political assessment res olutions was temporarily suspended, and a resolution from the House providing for a final adjournment on Jnly 10th was briefly considered. The faot was developed that the Senate was decidedly indisposed to Ax ing a day in the present condition of busi ness, and the resolution was laid npon the table to await further progress os the appro priation bilis. The discussion of the polit ical assessments resolution was renewed. BOUSE. Mr. Crapo,of Massachusetts, asked leave to take from the Speaker's table the bank charter bill for the purpose of non-concur ring in the Senate amendments thereto. Mr. McMillan, of Tennessee, objected.* Mr. Bctterwortb, of Ohio, submitted the conference report on the army appropria tion bill, and it was agreed to. Mr. Forney, of Alabama, introduced a bill authorizing the East aud West Rail road Company of Alabama to construct a bridge across t^e Coora river. will see that this fourth section ought lobe pns*e 1 exactly as it i«.” In tho concluding portion of Mr. VanVoorhis's remarks he 111 .!«• Ml attack upon Mr. Keag-ui, of characterizing his conduct as ■-he iking" and “theac-ti-ntioii of tin- g»*u tlem&n from Texas is of ineffable mean ness." Mr. Hammond, of Georgia, immediately demanded that the words be taken down, and offered a resolution declaring that the language used was unparliamentary, aud should receive the censure of tho Home. VanVoorhie quickly withdrew the offensive remarks, claiming that he did not know that they were unparliamentary, whe-e- npon IlammonJ, with ill coucenled sar casm, stating that it would be crnel under such circumstances to press the resolution, withdrew it, and Reagan took the floor to to reply to Mr. VanVoorhie. Mr. Bengsn expressed his amazement that the gentleman from New York, in- Ktes.i of in-eting the -t»u. o.-iit presented by tM committee, had chosen to go out of his way to attempt to make an Issue with him (Reagan), aud to charge that he had caused newspaper publications to be made, and was endeavor ing to persecute him. Ho knew enough of propriety to know that it would not be proper to give to tho nee spa- per* the contemplated action of the com mittee on a subject like this. He had never said a word that could bs need against the gentleman from New York, nor had he ever committed an act that oould in the most remote degree excuse or justify the gentleman’s oourse. 'Ihis morning the gen tleman admitted his part of the transaction, and then undertook to cast odium upon him (Reagan),because (as was asserted) bo nided him iu executing bis purpose, so that, if his otatement were true, its legiti mate and logical result would be to make him (Reagan) infamous along with him self. The gentleman hed said that on Satur day, the 17th, they bad talked over the pro visions of the bill before the committee and the bill as the gentleman desired that it should pass. It was exceedingly unpleasant to hove to squarely contradict any body, but he was obliged to *»y that the gentleman came to him Saturday and civil appropriation Mil.. Ordered printed aud reoimmitted. Mr. Neal, of Ohio, then claimed the floor for the oommittee on the District of Columbia, and the considera tion of district basinets was proceeded with. At 2:15 the District committee yielded the floor an-1 the Uouso went into committee of tho whole on the bill to reduce internal reventfo taxes. The content over the bill was close anil animated. Amendment after amendment wra3 offered and voted down, the greatest number being upon provisions affecting tobacco and spirit-. An amendment was adopted redacing the tax on cigars to four dollars per thousand, and on cigarettes CO aeveutv-flve cents per thousand. Mr. Cox offered an amendment prohibiting politi cal assessments npon officers engaged In executing the tax revenue laws. Ruled out on a point of order. The debate through out was very sharp, and at times personal but good natured. Finally the committee rose aud the previous question was ordered on the bill and amendments, thus ensuring their ooming up to-morrow m unfinished business. The matter they went over. At 7:20 the House adjourned. now dkloso piko. The Navy Department haa received from Engineer Melville, of the Jeannette, a de tailed roporl of the finding of tho dead bodios of DeLosg’s party. Accompanying the report ia a oopyof Do bong’s note book, which record shows the starvation of the party and their death, one by one, until but threo remained, of whom DeLoug was one, who stem to lmvo all died at onoe, aa no entries appear in tho book alter DeLong’s ceased.

On the 21st Knack was found dead in the morning between Dr. Ambler And Dfl/ing. On the 28ta Iverson lie J, and on the -.mi Drossier died. Sunday, October 90th, the entry is that Royd amt Gariy died duriog the night, nnd Collies is dying. This is the last entry of DeLoug. Shortly after this entry DeLong, Surgeon Ambler nnd the Chinaman cook, Sam, must have died. Throughout tho record is chronicled the growing weakness of tho survivors and vitir constant tope for sucoor through the deaired to talk about the bill. He was busy at the time and the gentleman went away, and the subject of the bill waa not mentioned between them. Why the gen tleman should go so far back in order to construct an argument to Justify bis con duct might be apparent at the bottom, while it was not apparent on the surface. It was sufficient to say that the gentleman brought him the bill with the statement that it was the committee bill. The gentleman had critieiaed him for not knowing the contents of the trill he offered. He thanked God that his experience bad been with men whom he re garded ns truthful. He had recognized American citizens, he is authorized to de mand their release, nnd if it is delayed or refused ho shall resort to anoh measures nr he may thin* proper to effect their release. Mr. Robinson wna (hen accorded tho floor for seven minutes, but he contemptu ously declined to make use of Diem. He said ho had documents by him which should bring a blush of shame to to** faoeof over]! American. He could show that for a hun dred days the President had been on bis knees before Lord Granville, andthat Lord Granville was -pitting in his face and in sulting tho nation by refusing to listen to his prajers. 1 here was r.!!^.,i and nonsense sent to Lord Granville to tell him that the House was not in earnest. Extracts from the New York Tribune, as treasonous as over was spawned from th" \••ruin tint \\'atlii!i_’'.i)ii hunt. <1 in *"76, including an ancestor of James Rus- 11 Lowell, win* wns a Tory, had been .-cut i Lord Granville, telling him the House was not in earnest. He expressed his con tempt for the rail* aud WAter resolution of the committee, declaring that the House had not sufficient courage to adopt a reso lution which would show whether the BriL i*h lion's tail should be wrenched, or ihe American eagle's ne« k wrung. The resolution was adopted. Mr. W’U- son offered the resolution of which ho had given cotloe, and it was also adopted. The Uouso at 11:45 went into committee l the whole (Mr. Page, of California, in tho chnir) on th© naval appropriation bill. Mr. Robeson,of New Jersey,who had chargo of tbo bill, briefly reviewed its general features, lie called attention to the fact that it contemplated a large reluctionia tho military and civil service of the navy. The difficulty in the past had been that (he civil e-UbluhiiU'nt had c mi-miii. ,1 the greater part of tho appro priations made for tho sorvioe, and left bat little for the material increase and maintenance of tho navy. Tho ser vice was too top heavy. It must take med icine if it waa to be relieved, Tho com- mittee on appropriationi had «V endea7- ored to put the service in the way of great future economy by recommending a con- (fi gentleman as truthful. If ho had to look upon every member aa attempting to cheat and defraud, he oould give faith to nothing unless it waa proven, he did was to accommodate gentleman, at his own reonost — had obeyed the gentleman? wishes) * * aided him, had accepted uau mu«4 oiui, nau oiwi-iw gentleman had leveled his attacks upon him. Perhaps the gentleman thought that by attacking the ex postmaster-gen- eral of tho Confederacy ho oould excite I>olitical prejudice.” Mr. Reagan con tinued nt some length, squarely denying many of VanVoorhis’s allegations. At the conclusion of Mr. Reagan’s re marks, wh ch were very severe upon Mr. VanVoorhis’s action, the House passed, without a division, the bill to regulate im migration, aa agreed upon by tho commit- tee on commerce, and then nrooeeJed to the consideration of tho bill to reduce internal revenue taxation. A motion to recommit the bill, with instructions to tho committee on ways and menus to report a bill abolishing all internal taxa tion except that on bank circulation ana dis'illedspirits,was defeated—yeas 57, nays 125. The bill was then passed—yeas 127, nays 8(1. It abolishes the tax on bank checks, capital and deposi §, matches and perfumery and proprietary medicines, re duces the special license* tax on tobacco dealer* and reduce* to four dollar* the tax on cigars and cigaret.es weighing more than threo pounds per thousand, nnd to seventy-five cents tax on cigarettes weigh ing less than three pounds per thousand. The bank charter bill having been reachod, most of tho Senate amendments were concurred in, includ ng that author izing the Becretanr of the Treasury to ex change 2 per cent, bonds for 3>{ per cents. The moat important amendment not con curred in i* that relative to gold certificates, Mr. Crapo giving aa the reason for non- conenrrence that lie desired the provisions of that portion of the bill broadened.

No attempt was made to resume the discus sion upon the political As.*c«sment* or that upon bankruptcy measures, and the items of expenditure were conjidcred paragiaph by paragraph. The Senate, after disposing of sixty-eifht -of the HQ pages of the bill, informally laid it aside until to-monow.

The oommittee rose informally, in order to fix some limitation upon general de bate. There was a strong disposition to debate the measure at some length. Mr. O'Neil, of Pennsylvania, declaring that it uproled ard naught to destroy the navy, advocated a long discussion, while Mr. Bowman, of Massachusetts, thought that tho House should be permitted to dis- cm a bill which, instead of being on ap propriation bill with legislation engrafted npon it, might more property be termed a legislative bill with nn appropriation en grafted upon it, changing as it did many of the vital principles regarding the navy. It waa finally agreed that general debate should close to-morrow at 2 o'clock. The Hoa«e again wont into committee and took np the naval bill, and a general attack on th) bill began upoa the line in dicated in Mr. O’NeUl’a remarks. The only legislative part of the bill that receives the support of the members of the com mittee on.naval affair* is the second sec- Ron, which empowers the Secretary of the Navy to dispose of all stores and supplies that shall be found by a board of but stating the unvarnished truth . arrested'late" Hatnrday uiglit.

Beneath all of this spe cious display there lay the autocracy of the Secretary of tho Navy, which, unchecked, would resurrect and revive tho dangerous disregard and violation of the law which characterized and di*graoed the adminis tration of the Navy Department form 187i to 1877. Congress wsa cnlled upon to oompleta the monitor* commenced by that administration, in utter disregard cf the law,- but there were no measures taken in the bill to protect the interests of the gov* eminent. The Secretary of the Navy was given powers which would be most dsn- gerons, il he should be corrupt—il (sarcas tically) it were possible to have a corrupt secretary. He then proceeded to make a vehement at tack upon Mr. Robeson’s administration of tho navy department, asserting that daring that administration over $51,000,- 000 bad been squandered, and quoting many statistics to indorse his assertion,and bear evidence to tbo abuses which ho in sisted were practiced by the Secretory and his beads of bateau. Returning toa disc as- sion of the question as to the propriety of completing tha monitors, he contended that If completed they would be fonnd to hnro cost in money and material *600,OCO,- 000 each and woald then be utterly worth less.
