The Senate was not in session to-day. ROUSE. Mr. Scbenck moved that when the House adjourn on Thursday next, it le to meet on the following Monday. After various suggestions trom members, the motion was put and agreed to.

The House then proceeded, as business of the morning hour, to the call of committees for blHs of a private c-naracter. The morning hour was taken up by-private reports from the Committee on Military Aflairs, the only public matter being a bill to extend the time for the completion ol the military road from Fort Wilkins, at Copper Harbor, in Michigan, to Fort Howard, at Green Bav, Wisconsin, which pas.Hcl. The House then, on motion of Jap-. Ingersoll, took up the business on the Speaker's table and disposed of it as Jollows: Senate bill to create additional land districts in the Territory of iwtcota, to be called the Springfield and Pem-tiina districts, was passed.

He had no disguise in stating to the House that his purpose was to pass over the taritt bill and reach a bill introduced by himself, hich coasisted of but three sections, and which reduced the tariff and internal taxes. That was tne object, inteut and purpose of his asking the of all special orders in order that the House might judge whether that was the proper course. It would be necessary to look at the condition of business. The House had been in session since the first Mondav December and it was now the first of May, and no bill yet been acted upon, reducing the i.urden-.

of the people. In the present condition of the busineas of the House, aud from the manner in which busi-uess had been conducted so far, he asked the House to consider whether, before adjournment this morning, such a state of aflairs would be brought about. Mr. Cox remarked that the gentleman from Illinois was attacking the administration for dereliction of duties for not reducing taxation. A A tdh nffaf an anlmutAfl rfitt- cuasion between Judd, Schenck, Lo- gan and Cox, Judd resolution was rejected and the House adjourned.

NEW YORK. Tfce Feaiaao aatf their Uakappy Coajrea Peraoaal-A Prize Fiffcter-A Leadlag Lawyer Btrrotrt in Brooklyn. New Yobk, April 30. The Fenian forces under O'Neil were instructed to be in readiness to move across the Canadian border to-night. Arms and ammunition were placed at convenient points along the line, and a successful diversion ot t'nele Sam's boys in blue was fleeted.

There Is a startling rumor that the Provisional Government had been informed of the intended raid. It is stated by the Canadian authorities that a' regular force of British soldiers would be on hand to receive the green-coats. Under the circumstances it was not considered prudent to bring on a conflict. It is understood that the Fenian commander-in-chief has issued orders to the effect that a movement was for the present postponed. The leaders, in the meantime, are busy organizing their forces.

General Speare has been unusually active since the adjournment of Congress. He is second in rank to Ancill. Several private meetings of officers have been held, and the treasonable conduct of some of the displaced leaden was denounced iu unmeasured terms. From present appearances there can be no doubt about the intention of the Fenians to move on Canada at an early day. Letters published in morning papers from Sullivan and Higatt, editors and proprietors of a leading anti-English newspaper in Ireland, caused quite a stir among the Fenian element In this city.

Several of the followers of the Savage and Senate party congregated about the green house and discussed the statements of the Irish editors with warmth. They seemed deter mined to offer their services to General O'Neil, in order to commence a fight as aoon as possible, either in Canada or on Bed River. It is said New York city alone is to furnish men forO'Neil's fight. President Grant left the Fifth Avenue Hotel with his children this morning very quietly. The baggage was marked A.

C. Corbln, Paterson, N. J. i inly the potior knew when the President left. Secretary Belknap and his family are at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.

Attorney General Hoar arrived here to-nlgii. Judge Clifford, of the Supreme Court, will arrive in the city to-morrow morning. Brooklyn, April Clarence Schatler, well known lawyer, residing at Third Place, while proceeding home through Fourth Place at 1- o'clock last night, was gur-roted and robbed by five ruffians who suddenly sprung upon him. His cry for help attracted the attention of the police, who, subsequently arrested John Hurley suspicion of being one of the gang. Schafier states that Hurley's associates took a gold watch valued at 1800, and a pocket book containing tltkOO.

Owing to the darkness, at the time of the robbery, Schafier is unable to give i description of them which might lead to their identification. New York, April 30.

He seemed confident the same kind of funding measure will yet go through Congress durlug the session. He is also watching for a measure to give the Treasury Department entire supervision over the Alaska seal fisheries. Tb Senate Territorial Committee considered the bill for organizing the Indian country into a Territorial government. Both thia committee and the House committee are in favor of the organization. They are about considering the Mormon question.

The Senate Indian Committee were in session to-day ou Indian affairs. They think an Indian war can be avoided by the (ioverainent simpU dealing juatly with the Indiana, by promptly giving them their sunuities. A decision has been received by the Conference Committee on the internal tax. The Navy Depasmeut ia still without any positive information concerning the condition of affairs in Havana. Kobeson doubts the truthfulness of the statement that volunteers have begun a revolution; wutfe Admiral Porter is Inclined to think there is a good deal of probability in it.

The long dispute iu the Ways and Means Committee over the banking section ot the bill, it ia reported, is to be settled by turning that section over to the banking committee, whose views are that the preseut banks are to bank only on four and a half per cent bonds, when fifty million of new banking capital is taken np, bv taking one half per cent, off the circulation ia virtually giving the banks five per cent, bond, and such a clause iu the funding bill, it ia believed, will be passed The funding bill is again postponed.
