was argued, that history wenid mar.
rate in conspicuous characters, the
facts asthey exiss, aud that the light
in which they would be viewed by
posterity. would not depend On the
terms ofthe vote Of Congress on this
occasion. The object OF sach vote
was not to afford materials for his

debate, Mr.. Macon took occasion 10
pass a very high euieginm on the

In the end, the house determined,
before final decision, 10 request a
conference with the senate Oh the
subject.
TREASURY NOTES.
Mr.. EPpes, from the committee
OF Ways and Means, made report
recommending an agreement to the
amendments Of tho Senate to the
Treasury Note Bill.
Tie bill, asst went from this house
provided that those Treasury Notes
10 be issued bearing no interest.
should be fandable at per cent. q
those Nearing interest nj seven per
cent. The Senate propose toanend
the bill. SO as that the notes hearing
no Interest shall be fnadable at T
per cent. and those bearing Interest
shall he fuadahle at six per cent.
Mr.. E. said. that. as the state OF
war had ceased since the bill passed
this Mouse, and the state OF peace
would probably appreciate the value
af the public securities, it WAS sup.
posed, the interest proposed by the
Senate would be sufficient.
The amendments were agreed to-.
The amendments OF the Senate to
the hill amendatory Of. the direct tan
bill were before the House. and part
.ly agreed and partly disagreed to.
Among the amendments, was one re-
8pealiag the section allowing annual
assumption by the states other re-
spectiye quotas of the direct tax.
and allowing deduction OF Is per
cent. on the amount so assumed. -
The committee Of Ways and Means
recommended disagreement to this
amendment.

In favor Of the amendment, it was
urged. by the latter gentlemen. that
although in time Of war there might
he good reasons for authorship the
anticipation of tho revenue by allow
ing assumption Of the direct tax by
the states, yet, ss a permanent tax.
The direct tax and all other taxes
ought to be collected by the U. $.
officers !; and, besides, that the dis
count off5 per eentum On such as
sumption was too great. Mr.. shef-
fey commended that this mode OF lay
ING direct tax was Unconstitutional,
inasmuch as the taxes saght to be
laid on the people, and not on the
states. Against the amendment
was opposed the greater convenience
to the People Of allowing this h,ods
