There IS splendid full length picture of Chief Lns-
attracts universal attention and praise bot from the
accuracy of the likeness and the superiority of the
execution. Mr. Harding has executed this chef
doeurTs for the city of Boston, which has sent him
$1,000 for it. This is Il demonstration that the cifi-
zens Of New England do not undervalue the talented
men Of the South but that their admiration and es
TEEN for talent and virtue scorn geographical bounda
rles and sectional limits.
No one who mixes in the political circles here can
avoid the conviction that the course pursued by the
administration has estraDgcd from them many ofthose

that he constitutes the power behind the throne which
moves and controuls and directs the meascs of the

| In the Senate yesterday there was bat little bust
ness of interest. The resolutions of inquiry submit
ted by Mr. Holiness the subject of advances to the
Senate printer of money beyond his earnings, we're
adopted, with some modiicati of an unimportant
character. Mr.: Freelinghuysens speech on the sub.
iect of the Indians which occupied the Senate on
Wednesday, Thursday and portion of Friday is very
highly spoken Of for its enlarged and like
tonc the humanity Of it's views, and the eioouence
in which they clothed. This important discus
sion is likely entirely supersede the discussion on
Foot's resolution, upon which Mr.. Johnston of Jou
isiana. has delivered excellent speech which is ~,
ming for its pcroratoi. The House of Representa-
tives have two resolutions under consideration the
relating to the public printing uron which it an
pears that 10 lse00 dollars have been eynendcJ
this session more than at any former one So much
for the economy of the Jackson parry. The other
resolution looks to reduction of the officers of the
army. This is the only economy of which the Marty
seems capable-tie cutting off that which i, nscfnI
and necessary. Mr.. Dwight and MR. Cambrelen0 |!
strongly opposed any reduction of the army ON the |
old and deenshle ground, that it is our policy TO have
the clements of our army ready. so that in sudden
encrgency-wc may he able to officer an army of any
extent for the field. In war. it is not difficult TO
raise strong physical force; the difficulty lies ia the
INFUSION into that force of that proportion of science
and practical wisdom which will be necessary to
gnlde bone and snew to victory. For that purpose
we nave so many officers iii training.
