~DocToR WILLIAMS, the occulist, ar
rived in town, on Saturday afternoon last,
conformably to the notices to that effect, pub
Iished in the papers of this town last week.
He gave his opinion to all who presented
themselves to him without fee. 1t is, it ap-
pears, his uniform practice to afford all the
relief in his poacer, to the poor who are af-
ficted with diseases in the eyes, without
asking any compensation. This we should
deem sufficient to warrant the indi gent, who
may be suffering from any complaint Of the
eve, at least, to consult him, and hear un-
prejudiced what he has to say. Persons
desirous of testing the Doctors skill, must
hasten to Providence as soon as possible, as
he leaves that city for Philadelphia at the
close of this month. We refer our readers
to our advertising columns, for evidence of
the Doctors skill as an oculist.

In Senate, Saturday, a motion was
agreed to, offered by Mr.. Wright, directing
the Secretary of the Treasury to report The
amount of money in the Treasury subject
to draft, and also the amount received from
customs and lands in the month Of April
last as compared with the same receipts in
March-also to report the rates Of exchange
between the commercial cities charged by
the deposite banks as compared with those
charged by the late Bank of the United
States. Several private bills were passed.
The Committee of Conference on the bill
to provide for carrying into effect the con-
vention with Spain, reported that the COM
mittees had agreed to recommend to their
respective houses to appoint one commits
sioner for marking the boundary, and 10
reduce the time for doing it from eighteen
to twelve months. This amendment was
agreed to. The bill to organize the post.
Office and several other bills passed. MIR.
Benton moved to recommit the bill for ex-
tending the charter Of the District of Col
umbia, with instructions to report bill to
wind up the affairs ofthe affairs oft banks
within two years, and to report separate
bills for incorporating number of new
Ddnhs IN the DlstrIct VIII stIldu Cdpitdis,
half gold and half silver, issuing notes of
twenty dollars and above, to be paid in gold
and silver, the stock and notes to be SUBJ
ject to taxation, and the charters repealable
at the will of Congress. The Senate refused
to recommit the bill by vote of 10 to 30.
Mr.. Benton then moved to strike out the
names of the Farmers Bank at Georgetown
and the Patriotic Bank of Washington,
which stopped payment during the panic,
and also amend the bill so as to prohibit
any other than a specie capital. This was
negatived.
In the House Of Representives, an in
efectual attempt was made to consider the
joint resolution fixing day for the adjourn
ment of Congress. Mr.. Jarvis, from the
Committee on Naval Affairs, reported the
bill from the Senate to provide for the pay
ment of the passage Of General Lafayette
and his family to the United States in 1924
and recommended that this bill do not pass.
The bill was laid on the table. Mr.. Cam
breleng made a motion, which was lost, TO
proceed with the consideration of the For
tifcation bill. The House agreed to the
amendment, recommended by the Commit
tee of Conference, in the bill for carrying
into effect the Convention with Spain. The
bill for repairing the Potomac Bridge was
passed.

1t comes from paper of high respectable

under the dominion of party, as to be un-

Correspondence of the Journal of Com
merce.
WASHINGTON, Saturday, May %, 1886.
In the House, no business of interest was
tr ansacted. At III o'clock, the bill to au-
thorize compromise and TO secure to the
United States the title to the Pea Patch Is
land, in the river Delaware, was taken up.
This was the silth day on which the sub
lect had been discussed at this present Ses-
sion, and still there appears no likelihood
of IA settlement Of the question. Messrs.
Ingersol and Milligan spoke in opposition
to the bill, and Mr.. Pearce, Of II. L., made
an animated appeal to the House in sup
port of it. The previous question was thea
moved aud sustained but before it was put,
the House, j. e. the few members present,
adjourned.
This subject has been long before Con-
gross, aud some of the most eloquent, speech
es ever heard, were made in regard to it.
Mr.. Pearce, of r. l., than whom there is
not more able and just man in Congress,
advocated the bill, in most brilliant and
convincing speech.
The family Of DR.. Gayle had held the
Pea Patch, in fec, from the time of Charles
2d, and the way in which they were dis
possessed by the Government Of the Uni
ted States is remarkable.
Mr.. Pearee, in his speech to-day, brought

The following Report made by Com-
mttee to the New-York Legislature, ex-
presses SO justly the sentiments which ought
to be entertained towards our distinguished
townsman Capt. Turner, that am induced
to request you to give them a publication in
your paper; and at the same time to ex-
press my surprise and regret that the Leg
islature Of our own state, the state of his
adoption and residence, should never have
manifested towards him any correspondent
feeling or expression. p. s.
