THAs. G. REINHARDT's patent gias
Z i mad double and single lever truss

u pad double and single lever truss
(patened Sept. "a, lS44,) for the support and cure
Of RUPTURE or hernia, suitable to all sizes and ages,
for men, women, and children.
This truss has the superiority of any heretofore
in use: hrst on account Of its durability and clean
lness, the rupture pad Icing of glass, lin any
shape or form,) the adjustments of the springs TO
suit the action of the body, and calculated TO be
fitted to either side. The rupture pad (glass) has
u double motion: first, by revolving on IFS own
axis second by the lever to which 1t ls attached,
and where said lever is connected TO the main
spring. The superiority which this truss has over
others is obvious in this, that it is most eecual in
retaining the parts in their proper place, and ma
king due pressure it is always clean; It's shape or
form is durable, which in stuffed pads is not the
case, las they become saturated with the fluids
from the body.) The umbilical truss is unsur-
passed, being so adapted as TO remain perfectly
secure where applied. .-. r..
AS a proof of its efficacy of the great number that
has been vended, not one of the owners has been
dissatisfied, but have spoken in the most commenda.

In a time of war, when, as the President remarks
in his veto message, we are compelled to raise the
for carrying it on by raising loans issuing
treasury notes, it seems sngularly inopportune to
assume a debt of five millions on French claims,
which have been pending for forty years, and ap-
propriate so much Of the public lands as will meet
that amount. 1t necessarily interferes with the
government in eking out its own revenue by the
sale of its public lands. 1t is calculated to raise up
a competition not only in the sale of its lands,
but in the lands owned by the individual citizens of
the west
Equally out of season, we humbly think, was the
bill which passed the Senate to-day to return
raj millions of dollars (some estimate it at six)
which had been levied since ls42 on the impor-
tation of railroad iron; but it was at arrested
in the House, and laid on the table. 1t does not
seem very polite to load the public treasury too
much with these accumulated and heavy incum-
brances in period of war.

CONGRESSIONAL.

The Senate, to-day, got through with the civil and
diplomatic appropriation bill.
The amendment offered by Mr.. Benton, providing
for the payment Of the Mexican claimants, was
adopted with an additional proyiso to the effect
that each Of the claimants should agree to take in
payment the scrip ola stock bearing interest at Ave
per cent, payable in five years.
In the House. the bill to reduce and graduate the
price Of the public lands taken up on the ques-
ton of concurrence in certain amendments made by
the Senate. The result was, that the whole subject
was laid on the table.
A committee Of conference was appointed on the
subject of the dsagreeing votes Of the two houses
on the bill making provision for the payment Of
treasury notes purloined and reissued.
The independent treasury bill was taken up, and
all the amendments Of the Senate, without exception
and without amendment, were concured in The
bill, therefore, needs only the signature Of the Pre-
sident TO become a law.
The Senate bill RENTING duties on imported rail-
road iron, was laid on the table by a decisive
vote.
Some other matters occupied the attention Of the
House, which is now fast winding up its busi-
ness.

MEASURES oE. CONGRESS.

we snail lake general view OF the procs edlngs o.
the present Congress in few days, and Of the grea
measures which they have adopted. They have been
faithful TO their trusts, and true to their pledges and
they have with one exception, carried out the grea
reforms which were recommended by the fresi
dents message, and demanded by the interests o.
the country. No session Of Congress has been more
decided, and none, we conceive, has been mor'
marked in It's character. Texas has been ineorPor
ated into the Union; the notice about Oregon
give, and peace preserved with Great Britain
a state OF war recognised with Mexico In the de-
fence OF our soil, our rights, and our honor, and the
most vigorous measures adopted for prosecuting thai
war to the most efficient yet smicable results. ouI
domestic policy has been characterized by reforms
which have been long attempted, and are finally con
summated in pursuance of the will Of the people

legitimate revenue bill which diseards all minImums
and specific duties, and is estimated on the ad vao-

been established TO 20 into effect on the LIST Of Janu-

Sir: Yesterdays Union contains an article headed
sthe river and harbor bill, and the veto" in which
| am represented as having changed my vote in
accordance with the views Of the President in these
words: "But in addition to the democrats who
changed their votes, eve catches some few wings
who voted against the bill to-day, among whom we
find MIR. Dockery, of North Carolina, who lad
voted for the bill before.n This is mistake never
voted for the bill directly indirectly. In the first
instance voted against il, the ground of its par
tal benefits, without reference to the constitutional
question II had changed at all, it would have been
in the other drection-aganst the exercise OF the
uone-man power" never with it. regret the me-
cessity of requesting you to publish this note.

the Senate for whom he entertained more respect
than the senator from Kentucky, or that he would
be more happy TO oblige than that senator, where
he could do Il with proprety. But the subject of
the Improvement Of harbors and rivers had, as he
Mr.. b. thought, been happily and properly dis
posed offor the present session, and ecould not con-
sent TO revive II at this late stage of the session. IL
was was perfectly obvious that il the river bill was
introduced, the harbor bill would follow, either as
an original bill, or by way Of amendment IL was
known TO the senaie that he (Mr. b had fixed and
unalterabe opinions in relation TO this whole sys-
tenn And although il had been said that some OF
the Inventions for that purposes would drag large
tree out of the bottom Of the river as easy as dem
list would extract tooth, Mr.. b. was afraid that
while they were pulling snags out OF the rivers and
making appropriations for unknown harbors, we
were running snags into the treasury. WIN per-
feet respect, therefore, for his honorable friend from
Kentucky, he objected to the introduction Of the
bill.
The subject then dropped.
NEW YORK Pilots
Mr. DIX moved to take up the bill concerning
New York pilots, and advocated his motion with
great earnestness.
Mr. DAYTON objected
Mr. DICKINSON supported the motion.
Mr.: DAYTON. IL will take long time to dis
euss the bill.
Mr. DIX. Not at all.
MIR. DAYTON. We have had such bill here
every session for the last 1--WE or six years.
Mr.. DIX said the senator was mistaken.
The motion was then rejected, and so the Senate
refused to take up the bill
WEST POINT ACADEMY.
On motion ofMr LEWIS, the bill making sppro-
priations for the Military Academy at West Point
was taken up.
Mr.. CAMERON offered an amendment appro-
priating $4,000 for the purchase Of land in the
neghborhood Of the arsenal at Frankfort, Pennsyl-
yania.
Mr.. LEWIS objected.
Mr.. EVANS also objected. The appropriation
did not properly belong to the bill before the Sen.
ate.
Mr.. J. M. CLAYTON supported the amendment
on the ground that there a contract in the
by which the government was bound TO pay the
s2O, 1000.
Mr.. EVANS denied that there had been any e-
galy authorized contract.
The amendment was then rejected.
The bill amended by the committee was
ported TO the Senate, the amendments concuned in,
the bill ordered to third reading, read third time,
and passed.
On motion Of MIR. McDUFFIE, the Senate then
went into executive session, and after some time
occupied, the doors were reopened, and the Senate
adjourned.
