In the House had me pleasure to hear your repre-
sentative, Mr. Sbey on the postponefnent bill who
endeavored 10 demonstrate that the passage Of the
bill would be gross violation Of the pghted faith of
the naon-a dsgraceful breach of contract entered
into with the States and attended with great inconve

ton by the House. He speaks rather too loud and
is perhaps somewhat too technical for parliamentary
orator but his voice sgood, and when he gets the
proper pitch for that hail. II will fall upon the
more pleasing cadenccs. He reasons logically, but
his reasoning too forensc-foo much IN the style Of
the lawyer, for effectiveness He will hswever, inn

House. But such is not believe, the custom In your
State. No business has yet been finally acted on in
Congress- and If they be not active the wheels Of CO.

pears to be no likelihood of an adjournment and as
first anticipated, think sull there viii be no recess.
The bill now before the House will in all probability
