The Legislature passed bills wit*i n rush io-d-ty, and adjourned sine die. A message of tho Governor, suggesting m iuvostig ilion whether the indebted* jess of tho Macon and Brunswick Rail road was $1,5150,000 or $12,000,000, was referred to u joint committee.

BUSINESS FINISHED. business is well up, but a good deal has been flnishod in a rather slovenly matin *r. Every one who visits Atlanta is convinced that tho House is too unwieldy a body on accouut of its largo numbers. Too many private bills aro introduced. They consume too much time, to the dr»- iunfit of general busiuess. TIIE SUPREME COURT Cln. 1 to-day with tho conclusion of tho argument in No. 18 of the Albany Circuit.

[9PBCIAL CORJIKSrONDINCB ENQUIRER AMD BUS.] Washington, February 22, 1874. t have au idea that tho man who may bo experiencing the fury of a hurricane cannot tell with any definiteness from whit particular point of the compass the wind is blowing; so it is with our nation al finances iu Congress. There is so much windy theory aud breezy speculation, and those strike you ho diffusely that the mind bocoinos bewildered. I have often thought during tho present session, while listening to the provokiugly mystifying exordiums of grave Senators ou tho financial pro- * blom, that I would like to study finance, political economy, nnd all the abstractions that go to mako up that uncertain thing exiled “political science;" but, then, I re member that throe score und tou years is the allotted period of human life, and de spairingly give it up. Besides, I cannot see that any of our living statesmen fur nish encouragement to begin a study of fiuauce. There aro Boutwell, Morton, tSheruuiu, Old Z.ck Chandler, Parson Brownlow, bimou Cutnerou, Secretary Richardson, and a score of others, upon whom the ambitious mind looks with ad miration, nnd who furnish emphatic and living illustrations of tho utter impossi bility of the average American mind mas tering this abstruse thing. The more yon try to learn finance from our Bolous of tho Senate, tho greater becomes the im possibility of mastering oven its first principles. 1 would rather try to acquire tho gruco and agility of tho combined bal let of tho Jllack Crook than to coutinuo in tho hopeless study of tiu'inco from my porch in the reporter’s gallery, do those readers of the Enquirer \vho» expoet to learn tiimnoo from your Washing respondent had better abandon this col- The fact that these bald-headed Sena tor.) know nothing about finance does i prevent them from orating upon it. cardinal rule of tho Sonate is to talk and somo who would ordinarily have vot- od for Bard are disposed to vote against him simply to cry “check" to Gordon. The nomination still rests with the com mittee. If Bard can obtain a majority report he will capture the mail bags. Mr. Dawes’ speech on the finances, in which he severely criticized the adminis tration of tho Treasury Department aud the gouoral oxtruvaganoe of the present Administration, is having good offeot. At first there was a strong disposition to de pose Mr. Dawes from the leadership of (he House for thus jeopardizing tho future •prospects of tho Republican party, bnf redaction has convinced the leaders that such an extreme proceeding might prove a most troublesome boomerang. Ho Mr. Garfield will essay to answer Dawes, and strivo to prove that, in the Administration arithmetic, tho footings are liot as Mr. Duwos has placod them on the national black-board. Tho point of Mr. Garfield’s argument will bo to demonstrate that two added to two will not make four. That Mr. Dawes speech has had good effect is idoncod by the fact that siuoo its do- livery some half-dozen bills have been introduced in tho House providing for tho abolition or correction of somo of tho more flagrant abuses assailed. The Legislative, Judicial and Execu tive Appropriation bill is now peudiug in tho House. Tho entiro amount appropri ated in this bill is $10,303,001. A clause iu tho bill provides that the various de partments shall be kept open for business and tlio clerical force shall be kept at work at least seven hours of each work ing day, with au allowauce of one half hour for lunch. At present the national clerks woik about ilvo and one-half hours each day. Congressional seutimont is becoming udvurse to the Centennial project. Tho Centennial bill will come up for discus sion in tho Semite on Wednesday next unless tho iluunco debates extend over that day, which it is likely to do. Among those who will ndJress the Senate iu op- long as a word can bo uttored on every position to tho Centennial scheme proposition presented, and last week ‘Mr. Sumner aud tho Kentucky Senators, “Fionnco and Currency" was so devotedly chewed up that no oue outside of tho Senate would suppose a single morsel and all the Democrats it is said will op pose it ou tho ground that it has boon undo a party question, and was one of the issues in lhe recent mayoralty elec tion iu Philadelphia. Senator Sumu6r has expressed hiiusolf as particularly dis gusted at tho idea of huviug au exhibi tion iu connection with the colebration of so sacred and Bolewi an event. It is slated that un amendment will Lu offered to tho Centennial bill providing that while the colebratiuu shall be held in Philadelphia, a world's fair Bhall be held in Washington at the same time. The general belief is that Congress will not appropriate one dollar for tho undertak ing, tho condition of tho Treasury being a good reason for refusing if there was no other. Chattahoochee. left. Nor is there any of it left; but this week they will just heave up tho old cud and masticate it all ovor again. They did succeed iu getting one or two votes, which may bo written down ns tho test of opinion as to whether we aro to have more currency issued; and, so far as these votes indicate anything, tho infla tion policy will prevail. After negativing Cameron’s proposition lo authorize free biukiug, n vote was obtained to instruct tho Financo Committeo to report a bill authorizing tho bank circulation to bo in creased to $1400,000,000. A proposition made by Senator Gordon to distribute tho increased amount among tho States that have not their quota, aoeordiug to popu lation and production, was withdrawn, but may be renewed at a future stage. Tho bill will in nil probability bo recommitted this shape, aud when it is reported by tho committee wo will have another flood talk, and the wise men will Again put out to sea in their tub. Tho frauking privilege oconpied the House for a day or two last week, and will doubtlosi ruu away with many more days beforo a voto is reached. Tho Dill under consideration was reported from , . , „ , ,, ,, . ,-,. v , ,, .i tho liquor trafllo occupied all day. tho Committeo on Post-Omocs aud Post 1 1 ., * .. . Roads, and provides for tho free circula tion through tho mails of documents or dered by Congress. It also permits tho free circulation of newspapers in tho county in which published, nnd tho free circulation of uowspapor exchanges. Mr. Knsson, of Iowa, a former assistant post master general, made a labored and earn est speech against tho bill, proposing ns on amendment that tho agricultural ro port and tlio abridgement of the Presi dent's message aud tho (xeotivo docu ments that accompany it, shall bo sent to any person who will pay 25 cents for oaclt volume. It is claimed Hint this is tho most economical plan fur the government and I lie most equitable for the citizen, as it will imver the espouse of tho documents and place them within reach of everyone. If left to C Ingresouen, ns under tho old system, only partisan fiionds of tho mem bers aud Senators would receive them,and it two frequently would liappou that tho books would bo forwarded, for tho most part, to (h k-> -G; , care nothing for them, and to wh no they would bo of no service. Thoro is somo force in this argument. During tho discussion, a little oxcite- rnont was occasioned by an exhibition on tho part of Messrs. Crossland and Bock, both from Kentucky. These gentlemen became entangled in a wrangle, nnd Cross- land rnshodover to Bock in n threatening manner, anil shook his fist under Bock's nasal organ. The said organ maintained its composure, and Air. Buck was not hurt. Tho House was thrown into iutenso ex- citcmout, nnd the boys in tho Reporters’ gallery expressed much disgust that tho turmoil ended without somebody getting hit. It is a shaino lo spoil so fine a pros pect for a newspaper sensation. A fight mu (ha floor now and then would bo so nc- | eepUble to tho Reporters’ gallery. Tho usual apologies were made the day follow ing the quasi mill, and tho two Kentuck ians still take their Donrbon straight in friendly commuuion. I The Atlanta post mastership is still un- s it Iii l, dthough Senator Gordon is light- TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT. WHAT TIIK WOMEN DO AND ARE * DONE IIY.
