Congressional ■•rot'eetUnars. Special to the L'au.y Timkk by S. A A. blue ) HOUSE. In tho House last night, on motion of Mr. Lawrence, of Ohio, the Senate amendments to tho bill to pay tho award of tho Southern Claims Com mission, were concurred in. Mr. Garfield, from the Conference Committee on the Sundry Civil Ap propriation bill, submitted a report. Mr. Randall, who had refused to sign the report, said he lmd not done so, and it was due to the House, and perhaps to the country, that he should glvo his reasons for declining to do so: First, he considered the bill in amount ($27,000,000) as utterly un justifiable, in tho present condition of tho Treasury and business of the country. He not only protested j against the amount, but all through the bill there were items that, to say the least, were very objectionable. There was another reason, the com mittee had utterly failed to support the directions of the House in rela tion to the New Iberia Mining Com pany. The report was then adopted. Mr. Parker, of Missouri, submitted the report of the Committee on Con ference on the Deficiency Appropria tion bill, which was adopted, and the bill passed. A number of pension and other pri- i vale bills of a minor nature wore passed, either under a suspension of the rules or by unanimous consent. The Senate bill to establish the boundary line between Arkansas and Indian Territory was taken up and passed. At 11.40, a. m., Mr. Packer, of Indi ana, moved to admit ladies upon the lloor, to which unanimous consent was given, and tho outer circle was soon enlivened by the gay colors of tho ladies. Mr. Dawes offered a resolution that a committee of three be appointed to join a similar committee of the Senate, and wait upon the President and inform him if he has no commu nication to make, the two Houses are ready to adjourn. Adopted. The Chair named Messrs. Dawes, Maynard and Cox as such committee. The remainder of the time was con sumed in announcing the enrollment bills and the presentation of execu tive documents. Mr. Dawes, from the committee to wait on the President, announced that duty performed, and that the President replied he had no further communication to make. The Speaker then addressed the House as follows: Gentlemen -1 close with this hour a six years’ service as Speaker of the House of Representatives; u period surpassed In length by but two of my predecessors, and equalled by only two others. The rapid mutations of personal and political fortune in this country have limited tho great, ma jority of those who have occupied this chair to shorter terms of office. It would be the gravest insensibility to the honors and responsibilities of life not to be deeply touched by so signal a mark of public esteem as that which I have thrice received at the hands of my political associates. I desire in this last moment to renew to them, one and all, my thanks and my gratitude to those from whom I differ in my party relations. To the minority of this House I tender my acknowledgments for tho gener ous courtesy witii which they have treated me. By one of those sudden and decisive changes which distin guish popular institutions und which conspicuously mark a free people, that minority is transformed in the ensuing Congress to the governing power of the House, However it might possibly have been under other circumstances, that event nec essarily renders these words my fare well to tho chair. The Speakership of the American House of Represen tatives is a post of honor, of dignity, of power, of responsibility. Its du ties are at onco complex and continu ous. They are both onerous and del icate. They are performed in the broad light of day, under the eye of the whole people, subject at all times to the, closest observation and always attended with the sharpest criticism. I think no other official is held to such instant and such rigid accounta bility. Parliamentary rulings in their very nature are peremptory— almost absolute in authority and in stantaneous in effect. They cannot always be enforced in such a way as to win applause or secure popularity. But I am sure that no man, of any party, who is worthy to fill this chair, will ever see a dividing line between duty and policy. Thanking - you once more, and thanking you most cordially for the honorable testimonial you have placed on record to my credit, I per form my onlyrromaining duty in de claring that the Forty-Third Con gress has reached its constitutional limit, and that the House of Repre sentatives stands adjourned without day. With his last words the hammer fell, and Speaker Blaine left the chair and took a seat at the Clerk’s desk. Then followed a scene probably never before witnessed in the hall of the House of Representa tives. All over the floor and in the spaces of the rear of the seats, which were densely packed, as well as the galleries, there was the wildest enthusiasm, with the waving of handkerchiefs by the ladies, and COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1875. the clapping of hands by everybody —the two sides seeming to vie with each other us to which should bo the heartiest in Its applause of Mr. Blaine. Tho usual hand-shaking among tho members then commenc ed, and the time was much longer than usual, before the members and others began to rottro from the hall, and thus ended the second session of Forty-Third Congress. SENATE. I At midnight lust night, Mr. Wright moved to lay the River and Harbor appropriation bill on tho table. Lost; ayes 12; nays 29. Mr. Windom moved an amendment providing SBOO,OOO for the com mencement of the Hennipin Canal; which was agreed to. The bill hav ing been considered in Committee of the Whole, was reported to the Sen ate, und separate votes were demand ed on the various amendments. The Mississippi Levee amendment ! was rejected ; ayes 23; nays 24. Tho amendments submitted by the Committee oil Transportation were non-concurred In with the exception of the Great Kanawha and Tennes see rivers, which were concurred in by ayes 21; nays 20. At 1 a. M. the Senate went into Ex ecutive session, but after thirty min utes spent therein, the doors were re opened. The River and Harbor bill was then proceeded with, and Mr. Sherman j asked for a separate vote on concur ring in what lie styled the “hotch potch” amendments, and most of them were non-concurred in. The I appropriation for the harbor of Cris field was concurred in. The bill was finally passed at 3.10 a. m. Mr. Scott called up tho House bill making an appropriation to pay the i awards made by the Southern Claims j Commission, which, after some dis cussion, was amended and passed ayes 33, nays 12. •Mr. Windom submitted a report on tiic River and Harbor bill, which was concurred in;, also, tho House bill amending the act of March 3, 1873, authorizing the construction of a bridge across the Mississippi at St. Louis, which was amended and passed. Mr. Merrill, of Maine, from the Committee on the Deficiency bill, made a report, which was concurred in. Mr. Bayard submitted a resolution ! tendering tho thanks of the Senate to j the Vice President for the discharge j of the duties of the Chair. Adopted I unanimously. Mr. Sargent, from the Committee of Conference on sundry civil appro priation bills, submitted a report which was concurred in. Mr. Conkling moved the appoint ment of a committee to wait upon the President, in conjunction with a simi lar committee on the part of the House and inform him that Congress had finished its business, and was I now ready to adjourn. The Chair appointed Messrs. Conk ling and Thurman. Mr. Conkling announced that they ■ had performed that duty, and I hat tho President had no further business j for communication. The hour of noon having arrived, i the Vice President declared the Sen ate adjourned without, date. At a late hour last night Senator Patterson succeeded in securing an amendment to the River and Harbor bill, appropriating $50,000 for the im provement of the Charleston, 8. (!., harbor. When tho bill went to tho Conference Committee, tho House side refused to accept the amend ment, but Senator Patterson was on hand and had sufficient influence with the Senate side to hold them to the amendment, until the House of fered to compromise by an appropri ation of $40,000, which was accepted, and said amendment is contained in the bill as signed by tho President. The bill contains tho following addi tional appropriations for the South; For the improvement of tho harbor at Mobile $20,000; harbor at Cedar Keys, Fla., $15,000; Chattahoochee and Flint rivers, Ga., $25,000; Apa lachicola river, Fla., $10,000; Choc tawhatchie river, Fla., and Ala., $5,000; harbor at Savannah, Ga., $70,000. Tlic Form Hill Fallctl in the Wenatr. Washington, March 4,1875. Up to the final hour of adjournment to-day, the Republican Senators made no ef fort to move for third reading of the Force bill, or to move it as an amend ment to any other measure, conse quently it is a dead letter. The Pres ident was the last to abandon all hope of its passage. He was at the Senate Chamber soon after Senate met yesterday, and sending, for lead ing Republican Senators, renewed his appeal for the consideration of the bill. He admitted that if taken up the Democratic Senators had it in their power to defeat it by parlia mentary manoeuvering, but the dis cussion of it, he insisted, would have a moral effect among the Republi cans, North and South, that would tend to support the Executive in the policy which he might be compelled to pursue towards the South.
