THE DAILY TIMEX n IMIIIYGTO\. j special to the Tim eh by S. A: A. Line.] SEN ATE FROCKEDINIS. Washington, March 15. The reso lution for the admission of Pinch back was proceeded with. Mr. Ferry, of Conn., in reply to Mr. Morton’s point tliatftlie action of the President in deciding who is entitled to recognition as the lawful Governor I of a.State is binding upon Congress, | said that this was not only repugnant | to the constitution but was entirely [destructive of the independence of the two houses of Congress. The ar gument of the .Senator was that uu act. of Congress conferred upon the President a power which was given to the Senate and the House by the Constitution. If the act of 1795, quo ted by the Senator in putting any such construction upon the law, the constitution conferred no power upon tlie President to suppress domestic violence, all the authority he had in that respect being derived from the power conferred by Congress. The Senate knew that Kellogg, when he I signed the oortifleato of Plnchbaek, j was not tlie lawful Governor of Lou-1 isiann, yet tlie Senator from Indiana 1 asked that Pinchbaek, tho personiil- 1 cation of fraud and violence, should j be admitted to the Senate upon that { certificate. The Senate was told that it could not exercise its constitutional : right to determine t he,elect ion of its own members, because the President, j acting under a law passed by Con gross, had made a decision which was : binding upon Congress. The Senate was asked to a seri that the truth was aliened that, the falsehood was j the truth. Mr. West, of Louisiana, repelled j the charge of Mr. Ferry that the elec tion of Kellogg was a fraud and a j forgery. The frau I was all oh the side of the opposition. Jle! argued at length tHut tlie Kellogg 1 State ticket was elected by a lawful j majority of the votes of the State. He claimed that there was no ques tion of the Republicans being in the majority in the State of Louisiana. ! He then detailed the frauds outlie ballot box which lie charged had [ been perpetrated by tlie Democratic [ managers. These, frauds were perpe trated by adventurers who had come into the State and who had made the j Democratic masses believe that they j hud been outraged. We claimed that for two years the Republicans had been defrauded of the peaceful en joyment of the victory they had won j at the polls. He read from there-; port of the Hoar committee to prove j that they had ascertained that Kcl- j logg had been elected. Mr. Dawes said lie believed such was the opinion of that committee, j he did not understand that it had in- 1 vestigated the matter. When Mr. West, concluded, the j Senate went into Executive session, and then adjourned. FISCBHACK’S CHANCES SIAM. Plnchback’s case will reach a vote to-morrow, it will take 97 votes to defeat him. Tin* Democrats furnish j 2s, and it. is known that Booth, Chris- j tiancy, Edmunds and Ferry will vote | against him, making 32. The other i live can safely be counted in Cameron ! of Wisconsin, Paddock and Morrill ! of Maine, Morrill of Vermont, and Hamilton of Texas. A I'AI.HE REPORT. In regard to the alleged fraudulent j legislation by the committee having | charge of the revision of the laws whereby changes were made in the ' tariff rates of some fifty-nine articles in favor of New England and Penn-; sylvania manufacturers, In a eonvnr-1 sation this morning with Mr. Lorin j Blodgett, chief of the customs divis- j ion of the Treasury department, he! asserts that there is not a word of truth in the article published in the j ('iipiliil yesterday, and makes a gen eral denial of every allegation. INSTRfCTIO\sro REVENUE OFFICERS. Commissioner Dougla- >, of the in ternal revenue bureau, lias addressed a circular letter to the supervisors and | collectors, advising them that the in- j tcrnal tax oil distilled spirits will be an additional incentive to frauds up- j on the revenue, and must bo methyl an adequate increase of vigilance I on the part of officials. Careful scru- ; tiny of character and conduct of ofii- j eers placed directly iri charge of dis-1 tilleries is urged, and removals are j promised whenever made necessary , by the interest of the service. The j commissioner has said to Congress, | that in his opion, the extra tax can- j not be collected and now calls upon his subordinates to sustain him in j this expression of opinion, based up- , on their ability, energy and integrity, j NAVAL AFFAIRS. The Secretary oi the Navy has dl- j rented that the Naval Union at Now Orleans be discontinued and all the ; officers there were detached March : 12.

Tho great sensation in Wall street yesterday, | was the announcement from London ! of the failure of the great banking and eomnii ion house of 1. C. Im j thurn A Cos., with liabilities of two million pounds sterling, although it • was known for three weeks past, both in Loudon and among financial men here having correspondents in that city, that the house of Tmtliurn A Cos. was in a shaky condition. They man aged to pay the claims upon them up I to tlie last moment, thereby avoiding ! i lie necessity of proclaiming their in iibilty to meet their engagements un j til tin* hour for closing the London .Stock Exchange, and preventing a | run upon them before to-morrow. Tho bankrupt firm did an immense business with Australia, India, and all parts of the world. They dealt ! largely in American products, espe cially cotton, and tho immediate I cause of their downfall is supposed to be an overwhelming influx of drafts ! from tlie South against cotton con signed to them by planters and deal ers in that region, iton THE FORK IN ANSWF.It TO OERMANY.
