BEPUDIATIN SILVER.
The first popular obstacle tbct has
been placed in the way of the silver
dollar comes from South Carolina ,
which state was one cf the forenoct
in demanding silver. The treasury
departmsnt was yesterday informed
that at Chester , S. 0. , the banks re
fuse to receive silver certificates r.t
par , and that , as a consequence , tha
merchants and planters decline there.
The bank takes this action , ii r.r.va ,
because they fear the coinage of to !
silver dollar at the present rate , wonld
sooc cause its depreciation , aud consequently
quently a depreciation of the certifi
cates.

Mr. Newton N. Clements , elected
to succeed Lawis , of Alabama , who
hfs resigned , appeared and was sworn ,
/heitfuse then immediately had the
subject of tliu order 6f busincis
sprung.
Mr Fernando Wood said it was very
important that the funding bill shotTd
be pasad at this session , but in view.
the action of the house yesterday , h -
S proposed that the debate fih.'ii'd . ru-
on the resolution with regard to the
electoral count in the hope tint a vote
would soon be reached. He proposed
after that subject was dispoamt of , to
Tidi' vor to bri g ' > ehousa down to

consideration of the bill which Mr.
Conger and his friends were ansion-1
to discuaa yesterday might bo com
pleted.
Mr. Conger , who has usurped th *
republican leadership , or has been
put forward by hia p\rly aa th < j lead
er , advanced to the democratic cidi
and asked Wood if he did not propoai
t > puah the funding bill.
Mr. Wood replied that the gen
tleman knew very well that that bil
would be cilled np as soon as thi
peniHnging discussion was completed.
Mr. Conger eaifl he supposed the
gentleman would deelre to call up the
bill kometime during the present aes
The ropublicr.n.- ! unanimously vnb i
agAt ist dispensing wlt * > the morning
hour , .and then , with n view of 3
S'iraiiig all tha time posibln , they in
dicated a purpose to demand the fu-l
reading of the bill. The democ ati
mooilora of the committee took the
hint , nd refrained from ron. r in
their bills. The hour was thereto *
connumod , when the electoral ras'L
tion came up , and Mr. Willits , of
Michigan , obtained the floor. He
argued that congress va.i not a re
turning board , and denied that they
had any right to make a pass-gc. Da
nying , as he did , the right of congress
to change a single vote cf the college ,
ho would vote against the resolution.
After Willets had concluded , ro on3
on iha republican aide seemed ur-par
ed to speak , and after waiting a few
moments , Mr. Bicknell ros-3 to call
the previous question , and to demand
* voto. Mr. Ginger , Mr. Keefer ,
j-d others , who wore in the retiring
r 'm at this moment , hastened to the
liall , and said that Mr. Whyte was f
laxt entitled to the floor , but fie was. '
: - nporariiy absent. Mr. Finley sug- *
jested that perhaps Mr. Whytj and
H3 friends would like the hrnse to
aka a recess to await his pleasure.
Mr. Robinson , of New Jersey ,
laiin-"d the floor. He said it would
i-l be denied that the qneatii'n cntisr
"yideration was one of the highest
tnport nce to the government and th > >
"oplo of the United Stiten. The
