SENATE.
WASHINGTON , Ai.ril 24.
Mr. Sargent , of California , sub-
inilteil the following resolution ,
which was agreed to :
Resolved , That the secretary of
the treasury is directed to inform
the senate of the amount in each , of
average and of taxable capital , and
of average and of taxable deposits
on May 31 , 1875 , in savings institu
tions having capitals to stock or
bond of respective states and terri
tories , together with the amount of
tax collected on said capital and said
deposits m each of said states and
territories during the fiscal year
ending lime 30 , 1875 ; also the
amount of average and of taxable
deposits in savings institutions hav-
in capital stock on Slay 31,1875 , to-
Kether with the amount of tax col
lected upon said deponits on each of
said states and territories during
the fiscal year ending June 30,1875.
Mr. Sargent indicated that in
his opinion this would not be a
proper provision to make. He did
not think from what he liad read
in the newspapers of late that spec
ial agents were proper pcrsous to in
vest with these titles. He then re
ferred to the late sensational ac
counts sent west by special agents
of alleged internal revenue frauds
from California. He pronounced
these statements to be entirely
without foundation. He read an
extract of the internal revenue col-
lectois in California , and oompar-
ing them with the total amount col
lected in the United States , he said
the total amount collected for the
last hbcal year in the Putted States
was S103 590,458 , of which $2,083-
69.5 were collected in California. Mr.
Sargent exhibited figures to show
that under collector oedgwick there
had been in two years an increase of
40 per cent , of collections over the
two years before he entered into
office.
Mr. Sargent then showed that the
tax on spirits collected was between
1-23 and 1-24 of the whole amount
collected in the TJnittd States. In
conclusion , he intimated that sinis
ter motivof ] were at the bottom of
the attack on the internal revenue
onlcfer * in California.
Mr. bhermsm taul theoOlce of supervisor -
pervisor of Internal revenue was
created in J867 and 1868 , when the
business of the internal levenue bu
reau was niueh greater than now.
Ot late those cilices had become
quasi political ones , and the reason
\vli3' Ihey should l > e dispensed with
was very well set forth in the letter
of the commissioner of internal rev-
en-ie in regard to special agents.
He said they were no more or less
than detectives , and had no business
to furnish information to the press ,
and the e who did ought to be dis
charged at once. The letter of the
commissioner , Pratt , had stated as
his opinion that there is no further
necessity of continuing the ' olllce of
Mipervispr , and he refers'to the recent -
cent wliisky trials in Chicago , St.
Louis and Milwaukee to show it.
Mr Jones , of Nevada , was enti
tled to the lloor ; be reviewed the
history of gold and silver , and the
relative value of the j-ame ; silver he
described as an American currency ,
ana gold as u UriH li currency ; he
argued against copper , &c , but gold
and silver were ijp ! onjy universal
money Used ; he refers to the prodi
gious expenditures of the llornau
ejnperors. He also refeired to the
period of tjip jhrk ages , when living
men and woiircii were passed from
hand to hand as money , arid when
the price of a hawk was equal to the
price of a man ; he reviewed the
origin , history , &c. HP referred to
the prodigious expenditure * and
Jargele.-s of iloman emperors and
the lavibli of gifts of precious metals.
He reviewed the origin ; md history
of bills of exchauue and of the ea-
( ablishnien t of ba nlrs Paper money
issued l > 3 * government and declared
a legal tender fifst made its appear
ance in Europe in 1240 ; anil at tjip
HUne time paper mone > was circu
lated In China. He discussed the
era of paper money "in tjie United
States , and the different panics
Mr. Jones then cited from carefully
prepared tables , covering a period
of sixteen centuries , showing that
the extreme fluctuations were from
1J.44 to 13.41 ; in the last 200 vears ,
to 1872 , the ( jxlrpme fluctuations '
'
were from 14.78 to 18.73' Then he
cited the financial history of this
whole period to show that silver
had beeij a leas variable standard
than gold. In 181C England yield
ed to the temporary depreciation of
silver and established a single gold
standard. The result was disas .
trous. Outside of England no coun
try save Portugal had a Dingle gold
standard until 1863. The etlects of
the gold discoveries in California
had u marvelous eflect. England
still had a single gold standard ;
France and most of i he other large
nations u double standard , and
many of the smaller nations a siu-
, -ule silver standard. As gold be
came plenty various nations began
, the silver
to make gold coinj btif
ver standard fluctuated within
very narrow Iimitsfor80yearsfrom
1798 to 18C5 ; but in England ,
France and Auieiica nourished and
prospered , nevertheless , because of
the double standard. The next
epoch In the history of coin was
the opening of the great Comstock
lode. With this discovery began
the attack on silver as a standard.
This was lor several reasons , the
least of whicu M'as the fear of Eu
ropean capitalists lest America
should become the monetary cen
tre of the world. Since the begin
ning / this century the amount o !
coin per capita , throughout the
world , has doubled. The production
of silver had been almost uniform ,
In this time the whole production
of gold had fluctuated enormously ,
and yet political characters wautet
to divorce gold from silver am
make it only le al tender. H <
pointed out what he concedet
would be a disastrous consequeuci
resulting from such a policy ; he re
ferred to and commented at som <
length on the act of J873. W <
should not be dependent for thi
standard of our currency on a for
eign nation ; this was the object o
of value thepro
gold as a standard ,
duct of which would annually di
miuish , and which was under th
control of the natiou , inimical to re
publican institutions. The produc
of silver is steady and even , und w
have it in oar own control ; he maiu
tained the desirability of the double
standard and argued against a sin
gle standard policy.
At 3:30 : p. m. Mr. Jones suspend
ed his remarks , and the senate % ad-
jourued.

Boston Enthusiastically Goes
for Bristow.
NEW YOKK , April 25.
A Times special from Boston
says : An important conference of
the leaders of the Bristow move
ment was held yesterday , when an
uncompromising support was pledg
ed to the secretary of ti.e treasurj' .
There was an outspoken discussion
of candidates , Blaine being sharply
criticized by one or two gentlemen ,
several Bristow men , however ,
took occasion to disclaim any hos
tility to Bluine , saying that they
desired only the most inviolable
man. The Bristow club held alitrge
meeting last niirlit , and a grand
rally will beheld this evening. The
editor of the Transcript made along
speech , pronouncing Blaine not the
man to be supported by the reform
ers. Ho urged the use of every pos
sible means to secure Bristow's
nomination , and failing in that , to
run him on an independent ticket.
The president , Mr Hopes , said that
judging from the popular sentiment
he did not doubt that the feeling for
Brislaw will fqrce the uelegates ,
willing or unwilling , to vote for
him at Cincinnati.
The Herald thinks the long stalo-
ment made in the Hous-e yesterday
by liluine will lie accepted as satis
factory by candiil men of both po
litical parties. Accepting Blame's
vindication us satisfactory the pub
lic will be curious to know who in
spired the accusation , and it would
now seem to be in order , it says , for
Senator Morton to rise am ] explain.
The Tribune say that Blaine's
speech denying that lie had receiv
ed $64,000 , is straightforward and
lucid It would now be difficult to
conceive of evidence to overthrow
the testimony which the oncers ot
the give ; that there has been no
such transaction either direct or indirect
'
direct wilh'BIaine. That the stoiy
being disposed of , other rumors will
have to be met iu different way * , 1
because they are less in truth , ij
their statement of the facts be accep
ted , tliere will be , little or nothing
lelt to support ( lie scandal.
The ( Sun , says Blaiue's speech ia
n < U satisfactory it believes he had
the money.
1'lie world says Blame's speecli
would have been more effective had
it been made at an earlier date ;
though hi-icontaa'Jk'tion of the sto
ry was flat and peremptory , and
supported by explicit fetters from
persons iuapositiou to know where
of they allirm.
The Times , on Jones' speech yes
terday on silver , says that if a la.rgo
portip.u ofthecivilixtd vorh } should
reject silver asj inoney , its value for
that purpose to tiie nations that did
not discard it , would bo we well
destroyed , and if supplies from the
mints became excessive , and its
value rapidly moved downward on
recount of over production , it would
come to a substance u fit fur njojiey
The Times' JJUCH on to show the
disasters that have happened to sil
ver , and says the plain truth is that
silver at this moment in unlit to be
made an instrument of exchange
and a standard of pecuniary engage
ments. In conclusion the Times
says that Jones' arguments can be
reduped to three words : "Buy my
silver. " HIH speech is an appeal to
inflationists to mask tl mselves as
hard-money men , and go in for sil
ver.
ver.The Tribune says : The speech
u ill attract attention by its display
of a motion of the subject , and
whatever may be thought of the
financial theories of Senator Jones ,
his speech , us far as delivered , is fai
feupdrior to the usual flood ot con-
greasloual wisdpm n such subjects.
