Ihe signature of the Bankrupt bill by IN
president on the last evening of the session
"as been already mentioned. An nppropri,
tIon Of 100000 was made for the Coas, Sur
Sey. The appropriations for ca-ryiny mi,
ed'ct the Boundary Treaty, and making IN,
stipulated payments to Massachusetts, an,
Maine. were als" mode. The Treasury Not,
bill, authorizing not only the re issue of,hes,
n"ies, but the funding of them at six per cen
interest. redeemable after ten years, was pns
~'d. The Rerrencbnent bi for reducing
Inc mileage OF tho members Of Congress, and
The salaries of public officers, was lost in
the Senate. The bill for the reduction of the
!"tes OF postage was also lost.
The letter Of Gen. Carpenter to Gen.
Nc Neill, we thought was a very aueer
affair. and the following letter, the an
Swer of Gen. Nc Neill, we confess is
nlso d very queer affiair-if any thing, a
little queerer than that of Carpenters
That person, " deserrediy" in the conf
dcnce Of Gen. Nc Neil, in our humble
view, whoever he may have been, went
a.littlc farther than confidential friends
('h"se deserrediy so, especially would
generally presume they were authorised
4" do, when he not only opened and
made himself acquainted with the oon-
tents OF somewhat confidential COM
mnnication, but caused it to be printed
~ Circular and made public, without
first submitting it to his friends inspec-
tion. This. we should think, was max
'"g quite free enough, even for n de
Serrediy" confidential agent, but if Gen.
Nc Nell approves of it, why who has
right to disnpprove of it
The only question that now remains
~, does Gen. Nc NciIl admit that the
contents Of Gen. Carpenters letter to
hun. are true or not The friends of
law and order" (if they are not aIrca-
dy.) would like to be satisfied beyond
MI doubt on this point, as they most as
s'rCdly have n ri ght To be, and we hone
Gen. Nc NciIl will have the honor, ere
much more time shall eIapse, to afford
Them that satisfaction.
