Mr. Beirne, from Judiciary Com- I niittee, reported in favor of the bill extending the term of the Dallas (’ireuit Court. Blevins said tin* people don’t want this done; that it is to abolish one court and extend the term of unother. The Bar of Dallas and the lobby are here for dis bill; dey want de Dallas Criminal Court abolished because lie would not accept a bribe.

All the pa pers this morning editorially refer to the dead lock in the House of Repre sentatives at Washington, and con demn the unnecessary waste of time when important business is thus neg lected, but there is a difference of opinion as to where blame rests for this filibustering. The llrrahl says there i. no reason for the Republicans continuing the contest after the decisive ruling yes terday of Speaker Blaine. The Dem ocrats were light in not abandoning the struggle, for they were playing the legitimate party game, and if the Republicans choose to pass the Civil Rights bilb against the known wish of the people, it i well to force against them additional odium of reaching that result through the gag laws. Intrrnuf lonal IVre*tihnc Hatch. New York, Jan. 29.

MISCELLANEOUS. Sju . ini to Daily Times, ly s, .v A. Line.] Washington, Jan. 29. The Com -1 niittee on Ways and Means agreed upon the bill to reimburse Brannin, ! Summers & Cos. for overcharge on j imported sugar for some SOO,OOO. In the Senate, Freolinghuyson pre sented a memorial of citizens of Georgia asking an appropriation by ! Congress to aid colored people who i wish to emigrate to Liberia. Refer | red to Committee on Appropriations. The Radicals oaucussod this morn ing over Louisiana. No result. They meet again this afternoon. The session of the House was dis cordant, and it adjourned by a small majority. The Democrats whipped out the Republicans, who at last yielded. The Railroad Committee of the Senate lmd no quorum. It will meet, Monday, when it is expected they will report fnvorbly on freights; yet, it will probably come up Monday. The Secretary of the Treasury will, on Monday next, issue a call for a large amount of sixty-two bonds, in j accordance with the subscriptions to : the five per cent, bonds, made by the Syndicate to-day. The interest on the called bonds will close on the j aotli day or April next. The Attorney General has decided ! in a ease which has been brought to his attention b\ the State De partment, that a United States Consul has no right to seize the clotliing and ot her effects of deserters ! from an American merchant ship and | sell them, but that tin* proper course ! is for tin* master of the ship, to which | the deserters belong, to hand the j property over to the shipping com : inissioner at the port whore Iho ves sel belongs, who shall transmit it t<> | the U. S. Judge for that circuit for adjudication. When the property is forfeited the amount shall be turned 1 over to the fund for the sick and dis abled seamen in accordance with tin* | law. In the case referred to thopro j coeds of the State, and the hack wages due were sent to the State De i part meat,and the Attorney General’s advice is that that-department pursue I tin* course indicated in his opinion. About live o’clock this nf ! ternoon a fire was discovered in ; the upper story of the Navy Depa rt - I ment, in a room used to store old log books. As there is no chimney Hues [connecting with this room, it is sur- I mised that the fire was the work of an incendiary. The lire was fortu j nataly discovered and extinguished before any damage was done. This is the third attempt made during the 1 present week to burn the Navy De partment. ( ONOUEHSION \E PROCEEDINGS. SENATE. Mr. Bogy presented Joint resolu tions of the Missouri Legislature on Louisiana affairs which were read. Mr. Sherman said if the tone of these ! resolutions represented the senti ments of the people of Missouri, they had better read the constitution of the ; United States. Mr. Conkling resum ed the floor on the Louisiana matter. He said that yesterday he had shown that neither the President nor Gen eral Sheridan had anything to do with the military interference on tho fourth of January. He had shown ’ that the design of the minority was | not, to stop at tin* seizing hy force and tratagein of I lie lower House of the Legislature, but was intended 1 to include also the seizing of (In* en ! tire State <io\eminent. He had shown that it was the duty of the , civil authorities, and therefore of the Government who was tin* highest representative of the civil authority, to interfere to stop the riot and tur bulance prevailing, this he had shown ! from the highest; authorities, Eng lish uiid American, but the President and the Republican party and a con sidemble portion of the rest of man kind wen; to Ik* involved in destruc tion because those whom Gov. Kel logg called in happened to be .soldiers ! soldiers of the United States hire lings, the Senator from Maryland called them. The worst words do not appear in his printed speech, but they were the liveliest words he uttered. If it wen; not for those hirelings we would not have this Senate Chamber in which to hold the. eloquence of the i Senator from Maryland ; we would not have this Republic; we would not i be able to breathe the free air of a Republic. These hirelings have no reverence in one-half of the Republic; t hey are called carpet-baggers, scala ; a wags and white niggers; that the Democratic party did not always call the soldiers hirelings, and it was a soldiers’ party when it wanted Cuba. He referred to the acts of General Jackson in disregard of the civil au thorities in New Orleans, for which j the Democratic party made him Pres- I ident, and to the dispersion of the I free State Legislature in Kansas by the military under the order of a j Democratic President, and which the Democratic party applauded from one end of tin* country to the other. The predecessors of these Senators i did not then denounce militaryinter ! fere nee. The Democratic papers all over the country ridiculed bleeding Kansas, just as now they talk of tin* Southern outrage mill. He read extracts from Congressional reports on the invasion of Kansas by armed bands of Missourians for the purpose of carrying the pro-slavery constitution. He read from a Mis souri paper of that day threatening Gov. Beider with hanging if In* did no! ißvtM’iTtlfii'ates to poisons sfli't li'il in iliis manner. After fui'thor commenting on the military interference in Kansas, which hail met with no Democratic denunciation, he spoke of the cnll int; out of the Marines in Washing ton, in June 1 si,7 on election day, when they tired upon the people kill ing live, and wounding 17, and no Democratic denunciations followed. In 185!), Governor Cummins of Utah, protested against the surround ing of the camp house by U. S. troops, but it found no response in the heart of a Democratic adminis tration. In 1801 Governor McClellan arrested all the members of the Mary land Legislature that lie could find, and afterward the Democratic party wanted to make him president on a peace platform. Ho then referred to the circum stances of the arrest of the fugitive slave Burns in 1st;) in Boston. The court which tried John Brown was guarded by Federal bayonets; the gibbet on which lie kissed his child and died was surrounded with the trump of Federal regiments and rung with the sound of Federal artillery. Those who can look unmoved upon a record so crimsoned with blood and so burdened with tears as this, can not bo appalled at the sight of De Trobrland with the soldiers request ing disturbers of t lie peace to retire. It was true, soldiers were hirelings; so were Senators, and for that matter three-fourths of the people of tile United States. The record of Louisiana has been one of God-daring and man-hating ferocity. Continuing, he said that to show him any thing that would paci fy the South and it should have his vote. But bluster and violence and denunciation of the national Govern ment would not pacify the South. If his voice could reach every commu nity in the South he would say “build,” “sow,” “plant,” in short go to work; let a fair day’s work bring a fair price; respect the equal rights of all, and then the South will be paeifled. The Senator from Ohio says ho does not like the Congres sional record being made a national police gazelle. He would say to the Senator, “Stop your masked riders, disband your white leagues and dis continue your bloody Democratic assizes, and then the record will be no more a police gazette.” M r. Gordon said he had not In what lie had heretofore said expressed one word of condemnation of the Ad ministration or of Gen. Sheridan, as had been wildly represented. Never from the time of 1 be surrender at Ap pomattox Court House down to the present time had he ever expressed one word at any time or place incon sistent with the sentiments of kind ness and conciliation which he had expressed on this floor. But Hie ap prehensions which lie had heretofore expressed that any remarks from a Southern man on this floor would be misconstrued, had been abundantly confirmed. Ho then proceeded to argue that by the laws of Louisiana any member hod the right to call the roll. lie then referred to the re marks of Mr. Morton, in the con tested case of the Senator from Alabama, Spencer. He adduced that the body which elected Mr. Spencer had met in a place not known to the law. Its every act was in violation of the Constitution and laws of Ala bama. It bad not a quorum, and yet the majority of the Senate hod admitted the Senator elected by that body to his seat. If the Senator from Indiana (Morton) was right in liis position on this Louisiana ease, then he was wrong on the Alabama matter, and he and the majority of this Senate had admitted a man here elected by a mob. He, then read from a former speeeli made by him to show that his feel ings were for peace and conciliation. Mr. Sell lira Submitted the following as a substitute for li is pending reso lution : Whereas, Any military interference by the officers or troops of the United States army with the organization of of a State Legislature or any of the proceedings is repugnant to the prin ciples of a constitutional govern ment ; and, Whereas, The military interference of Gen. DoTrobriand, U. 8. A., and soldiers under his command, with the organization of the Legislature of Louisiana, on the fourth of Janu ary last, was without warrant of law ; therefore, Resolved, That the Judiciary Com mittee, &e. Mr. Scliurz said the first sentence of the preamble, which he now wish ed to add to his resolution, was sub stantially in the words of the Presi dent, and as no Senator on either side, not even the Sena tor from New York, had under taken to assert that General DoTrobriand’s action was warrant ed by iaw. He hoped that tln; pre amble would have the unanimous as sent of the Senate. Gordon said the whole sum and substance of all the arguments on the other side had been outrages in the South. The white men in the South hate the negro, but in all of it there had not been one word to show any law for what had been done in Louisiana. He submitted the follow ing from the courts of’Georgia, show ing a comparison of criminal statis tics under the administration of Gov. Bullock and of Gov. Smith. By this it appears that Smith hud par doned two persons convicted of cap ital offences, and Bollock had par doned forty-six persons convicted of capital offences. Bullock in all had pardoned 40!) persons, arid Smith in ail 47. Where Is Bullock the carpet-bagger Gover nor of GoergiaV a refugee in Cana da. Where is Foster Blodgett who stole SBOO,OOO from the State Road? a refugee in the province of South Car olina. Mr. Patterson said if Georgia want ed Foster Blodgo'ft, why did not she send for him. Mr. Gordon And what of Kellogg? Now who has turned loose on the people of Louisiana, murderers and rapers. Ho continued at some length in describing the wrongs which lie alleg ed had been committed by carpet baggers, and he said since the nc grucH had been turned against them, the crime of rape was so common among them that it would frenzy tiio most staid community in Hie world. When Mr. G. concluded, the Senate Hum odjournod. iiodsj:. Dilatory motions continued lust night till 1:50 a. m., when the want of a quorum being developed, Mr. Maynard, of Tennessee, moved a cull of the House; Mr. Lyncr, of Indiana, moved to adjourn. Objected. At about two o'olook, the House was again without a quorum, and on motion of Mr. Maynard, a calling of the House was ordered, and 154 members answered to their names. Some twenty-live or thirty gentle men were excused from at lending on account of sickness and other causes, and three successive times the motion had been made and negatived to excuse all absentees. The Speaker, Mr. Tyner, being in the chair, took the floor, and said he had never known an Instance where a call of the House had shown a quorum that the absentees had boon sent for. He desired that the record should show some reason for sending for the absentees. Filibus tering was again resorted to. At six o’clock the vote showing no quorum present, the Speaker directed the roll to be called, and 118 members answered to their names. Mr. Wordill said that experience had demonstrated that it was beyond the power of human endurance to legislate under the present rules of the House, and would move that the House adjourn. A vote was then taken, and the House at 10 an a. m. concluded to ad journ till 12 m. Saturday. IWIN BY TKI.KUItU'II. Hpeciul to the Daily Times by S, k A.
