In both Houses of Congress, it will be seen by the
renor of the proceedings therein, the subject OF
provision for General La FAYETTE was Yesterday
under consideration. In the Senate, bill passed.,
with remarkable unanmiy, considering the Vig'-
lance which, il both Houses always protects the
public purse, for making very liberal appfoprla'
ton of money and land for the use OF General VA
FAyETrE. In the House, similar Dill met win
opposition rather attributable to the want OF notice,
and some difference of opinion as TO the details OF
the measure. than TO any objection to the principle
of the bill We see, in present appearances no
reason to doubt, that, by handsome majority III
both Houses liberal provision will be made to pro-
