Washington, March 11. -In the Senate Mr. Clayton asked for a de cision on the point of order raised against his resolution for appoint ment of n committee to visit the Indian Territory during the recess. He read from the journal of the Semite numerous eases where the Senate, in special session, had con sidered matters of the character of the resolution submitted by him. Mr. Hamlin said the Senate had no p<Aver to pass such a resolutVjn%s it .looked to legislation. 'He denied \yifuiat the Senate had power to direct the withdrawal of a paper it was called here for executive purpo ses entirely, and had no business to do anything else. Mr. Morton had taken some trouble to examine Into what hud been the practice of the Semite, and although the practice had not been uniform, he thought the general current of the proceedings was that the Senate in executive session could do anything that did not require the assent of the House. Mr. Clayton said the Senate had repeatedly done what we are told it cannot do. The question was then submitted to the Senate whether it would per mit the resolution to be received. Mr. Edmunds asked whether an ob jection could not be made to the re ception of this resolution without raising n point of order? The Chair replied in the ußirumlivc. Mr. Conkling said this was not u resolution appealing to the legisla tive character or function of the Sen ate, and ho should therefore vote against, the point of order. Mr. Clayton then modified his reso lution to read as follows, by which, ho said, ho avoided all reference to legis lation : Resolved, That a committee con sisting of four members of the Com mittee on Indian Affairs and three members of tlm Committee on Terri tories, making seven in all, bo ap pointed to visit the Indian Territory tinring tlm recess of the Senate, with authority to inquire into the condi tion of affairs in that country; the manner in which justice is adminis tered there, and the capacities of lawful inhabitants thereof with re spect to self-government, and to re port at the next session of the Senate j the result of their inquiry. Mr. Anthony moved to lay the whole subject on the table, which was agreed to; ayes 39, nays 22. The Senate then, after an Execu tive session adjourned, adjourned. THE THIRTY MILLION CALL BONDS. Frequent inquiries have been made as to what character of Bonds would be embraced in the call of thirty millions for the sinking fund, but the Secretary of the Treasury lias re fused to give any information on the subject: until the announcement of the call to-day. It is now ascertained that tlm Secre tary tuts all along considered him self without discretion in the mat ter, and bound by the law to call bonds in the order of their issue. Tlie act of Marcli 3rd, 1877. which au thorizes this call, provides that it shall be made in compliance with section 2(197 of the revised stat utes, and that section expressly di rects Unit, the bonds shall be called in the order of their number and issue. Of the thirty million bonds called to-day 21,083,700 are coupons and 5,930,250 are registered bonds. An order will be issued from the War department to-day assigning -Gen. Augur to the command of the Department of the South, and Gen. Orel to the Department of Texas. • ♦, New llam|*liire lllcrllmt. Concord, N. H., March 11. -A dis patch received at the Republican hedquarters in litis city this morning indicates that the House is Republi can by more than 10 majority. The Senate stands five to live, no choice being made in two districts. Blair, Republican, and Jones, Democrat, are elected. Manchester, N. 11., March 11. Up to this hour, midnight, the House is Republican by 12 majority. The Sen ate stands sto 5. Ward sin this city will probably be thrown out on ac count of illegal voting, which will finally leave t he Senate 8 to 1 in favor of the Republicans. The Council will stand 3 to 2 in favor of the Dem ocrats. For Congress there will be one Democrat, one Republican and one doubtful, but probably a Demo crat. A few small towns are still to hear from, but, it is conceded by the Democrats that tiie Republicans are safe in the House and Senate. ♦ . - .4 inly Jo!innti wltli Hrllilns i In* TpniHNHee Lpslxlaliir''.

THE “COLORED TROOPS” CELEBRATE THE ; PASSAGE OF LHE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL. Savannah, March 11,—The colored civil rights exempllflers turned out in large force tills afternoon to cele brate tlio passage of "do bill” which gives to them the right to “do jist as dey please.” It was a rod hot old turn out. All the colored societies - the military, tlio Me chanics," the “Dlttemus Chicken Lifters,” the “Bryan Rowv ’frurkoy ClpiWtu's.'iand tlie Vl’opper Hill In vinciblos,” were alteont with full ranks to celebrate “do bill.” Dark clouds of colored brethren and col ored sistoten followed the procession, some on foot and some in wagons and buggies, and some again were in car riages who had not tackled a square meal for lo these many days. One old darkey wont to sleep in his car riage and dreampt that he was as white as cluilk, and woke up shout ing, “glory 1 glory! glory! be to Jedus! do ting is settled now for true!" After marching through tlio princi pal streets, they proceeded to the Park extension, where “do bill” was read, smd scarcely n lino was read but j what some good old colored Christian exclaimed, in tlie language of the poet, “amen; (hit’s good; glory uuf, j bruddef;” “oh, Sister Jane, alntll bin tell you dis ting been gwine come | soon, eh? eh? alnt I tell you so?” etc. i Several colored men made speeches, j but most eonspicious among them j was parson Turner, to whom we mustj give credit for making a very able and : consistent speech. lie dealt out good, sensible advice to his colored friends, in which he stated that lie knew of white men in our city who were put ting the colored men up to raising civil rights disturbances. We are glad to note that everything [Hissed off quietly and that the color ed people deserve much credit for the good order which was maintained i throughout the entire celebration. iokkh.v (‘Mini.
