HARRISBURG, Monday, March 30.
Mr.. Bells amendment To the loan resolution passed
the Senate today, the third roading with the ex-
cepton of the section providing for the iasuing of
small notes by the banks.
As the bill now stands it provides for resumption

The bill now goes to the House, and and 1t is ex-
pected will pass them by a small majority
Mr.. Snowden's Bank bill was up in the House to-
day, and occupied most Of the time, though nothing
definite was done on il.
Mr.. Penniman Of Phiadelph County offered an
amendment, providing that no person should he LA
BILE to indictment for making passing counterfeit
bank notes under the denomination Of $40. On la
king the ayes and upon 1t, he found he had his

The Registry Bill n Law OF the state.

At 5o'clock on Wednesday morning we received
the Albany papers containing the following document
Of Gov. Seward, giving his approval OF the much
talked of Registry Bill-it is now, consequently a
Law Of the State.
The following message was received from the Co
vernon;
To THE SENATE.
have this day approved and signed the bill enti-
tied "An act to prevent illegal voting in the city Of
New York, and to promote the convenience oil legal
voters"
In making this communication, ! deem it my duty
respectfully to inform the Legislature that careful
examination Of the bill induces beleftha there de-
fects in its details, without the correction Of which
the Iaudabe purposes ofthe Legislature may not be
accomplished.
Ii is evidently the intention ef the Legislature
that the bill shall 60 into effect Immediately,
to apply 10 the Charter Election in the City Of New
York. which is to take place within fifteen days,
and nasmuch defects found in any provi
sons Of the bill which affect that election have
approved IT, There will be sufficient time to make
aay amendments which may be found necessary
previous to the adjournment IL the Legislature.

We are indebted to Capt. Peterson, ofthe Patsey b.

The "Balize Advertiser" contains late intelligence
from Central America. That country is in most
deporable condition. Foreign residents have been
called upon to fight on either one side or the other;
and if they would do neither, iusulted and even

British Consul, and the Central Americans refused
to recognise him or his government. Fights are of
daily occurrences; and the Columbans and Central
Americans are now both preparing to rob His Mos
quito Majesty of his territories.
