CoL. Seett Before the Comsiiuce en Railroads. Tbe Senate Committee on Railroads beard this mornhg. on behalf of the Texas Pacific Railway, CoL Beott, who presented the broad grounds on which the Government was abed to tbe enterprise. Tbee briefly were: That tbe 8 jathern Ifne must be a competing Irouj all control by tit her corporations, and with the regulation of its rates reserved to Congress.

That to insure low rates, tbe line must be built at the lowest cost that tbe natural advantages of tbe thirty second parallel were now sap Ilf etted by the lowest prices ever known for laimr and material, and that while the Government and tbe public would thus secure tbe benefits of a lioe costing fifty millions instead of tbe two hundred ai twenty six millions of dollars of tbe present line, tbe rehef to tbe depressed industries and idle lal or of tte country front its construction would be very great. He claimed tfcat the Government would directly save three million of dollaie a year if it paid every eoiir of inter et which it gaaran leed. while, the rich stream of Oriental eommeree would not traverse our continent except a cheap trans continental ra1 unobstructed by snow were That Chicago and other Sorth erd cities would have a shorter route to the Pacific over this line, while all the Sontnern ports and centres would be imtnedistelv benefited. He claimed that it was contrary to human nature to suppose that tbe Central Pacific would bnild a road to compete with tnemeelves and that they would avoid any promise they might give by crippling the facilities on their end of the Southernwine, or buildine under their territorial charter. whicb allowed them to charge 10 to 15 cents per mile.

Mr. eeott moved tnat neither he nor others Interested in the Texas Pacific could realize one dollar of profit under tbe bin out of the building of tbe road, and that his rresent Investment was amply protected by tr.e earninrs ot tne completed line. Tbe committee having decided to hear three alternate speeches from each side, the Texas Paeihe to close, Mr. Storrs opened for the Southern Pacific, of California, recitine its powers under tbe acts ox Congress and of California.

It may be that tbe steps now lieina taken nv Knseia are in pursuance 01 the condition of the armistice, because we do not know the conditions, but it appears that the Porte is equally in ignorance, and is perplexed as to the meaning of these a telegram sent this day we have asked Russia to give us some explanation ou the subset t.

and we have called attention to the declaration made bv tbe EJiperor to Col. Welles lev, in July last, that he would not occupy Constantinople for the sake of military honor, but only if it were rendered necessary by the march of events. Con siderinir that the Turkish resistance has ended, it does not appear to her Majesty's Oovernment that there can oe any neces sitrforan advance by the Russian troops. Lord Derby added, that it was possible that instructions bad not been given to the Russian troops, at the time Mr. Layards telegram was dispatched, and that the vari ous steps which were taking place were not in contravention tbe provisions of the armistice, tbe exact terms of which her Majesty's Government did not know.

Chancellor of the Exchequer, in reply to an inquiry of Lord Huntington, leader of tbe Liberals, confirmed the report of tbe advance of the Russians toward Constantinople The advance, the Chancellor said, may be in accordance with the terms of the armistice, but the Turks affect a surprise. England has asked Russia for an explanation, particularly calling the Czar's attention to his statement of July, that Constantinople should not be occupied unless the military situation rendered it necessary. The House, after some discussion, agreed to the withdrawal ot Mr.

The excitement in the House is intense. A formal motion was made which must be passed before the House can go into committee to attack: the Government's policy particularly censuring the Eari of ueaconsneia.

The Press Association has reason to be lieve that althongh Mr. Forster's amendment is withdrawn, the Radicals will divide on the question when it gets into co.u tnittee, but the opposition, as a party, is not expected to oppose the vote.

Count Schoa vaioa, the Russian Amuassaaor, declares he does not believe it. The Daily Chronicle states that the British Government and the Russian Embassy have both received information that the Russians have entered Constantinople, but the Daily Chronicle is not good authority.

The same paper also states that a telegram from Bucharest, received in London, says In addition to the transfer of men of war on the Danube, Russia is negotiating for the acquisition of the entire Turkish Iron clad rleet. Count Schouvaloff heard the rumor of the occupation of Constantinople at the ball at tbe German Embassy last night. He imme diately telegraphed to St. Petersburg inquiring whether it was true. His dispatch has not been answered yet.

The Count thinks the report has arisen from some ar rangement between the Russians and Turks by which the Russian troops might approach nearer to Constantinople than they were at the signature of the armistice.

That it is opposed to tne spirit, 11 not to the lerter of the constitution. That it is not possthie to cave two standards of value in the United States, ne of silver and one of gold, when other nations are limited to one because metal disused by other nations will Csetuate in price, and these fluctuations win necessitate a constant change in weight, sub; eeting the user to a raise measure. That it is not right to make 412 1 grain of silver a standard of value for a dollar, when at the present time 55 grains are bjt tbe equivalent of oar gold dollar, which remains as it has been for so many years an accepted standard. 4. That it is not wise to separate ourslves from other civilized nations of the world by adopting a metal which must become our sole standard, and be subjected to iaerea ing fluctuations at home, because is will always be subject to change in other coun mes witn nun we nave intercourse, and the dangers of fluctuation is aggravated bv the prospect of increased supplies of silver irom eouin 5.

That gold is compact and convenient as a measure of value ami a medium of ex change, and silver is not. 'lhat it is inexpedient and unwise to force an exchange of 150 million dollars of go.d now in tne United States treasury for a like amount of bonds held abroad under errrcmstances so prejudicial to national honor and national interest. 7. 1 bat it is wrong to inflict on our national banks, our savings institutions, and our life and ere and trust companies, as well as our marine insurance companies. a loss of ten per eenU.

thus jeopardiziag interests involved in all these institutions, and even impairing the security of those who hold bills of our national banks, the failure of some of which is announced from day to day. Such action is to be depreca ted, because destined in the end to injuri ously azeet the worxing classes, the widow ano orpnan. 8.
