We need scarcely call the attention ofthe read
ers ofthe Journal to the Gard and Address of Mr.
'Dobbin, which will be found in another column
Both will be read with pleasure and deep interest
by every man in the State. The address is just
like its author, NOBLE disinterested, and high
toned 1t will add much TO the already well earn
ed reputation of its author. Mr.. Dobbin's sug-
gestions as regards Gen. Mckay, entirely coincide
with our own feelings and wishes; and we will
add, with those of every Democrat in the District.
We have no time 1--WE have just only returned from
a visit mentioned in another place. at present to
say all we would wish to say on this subject.
We may refer to it next week The address,
however, is just such a one as those who know

In the Senate on Saturday last, the three mil

made BY Mr.. Sewer to take the vote upon it on
,bat day, but it was postponed until Monday by
,ots of 81 to %. The opinion seems to be, that

proviso and be returned to the House and passed

the Senate the same day, the bill for the relief
of the people OF Ireland and Scotland was passed
bv A vote of 81 to l3. This bill appropriates
100000, and directs the President to use this
money in purchasing such provisions as he may
deem suitable and proper, to be transported in the
rubic ships of the United States TO Great Britain
and rendered to that Government for the relief
of the people of Ireland and Scotland, suffering
from the great calamity of scarcity and famine" /"
We enter with all our heart into the noble spirit
of this bill, and we are happy to see our country

lief of the starving Scotch and Irish people; bn,
with the Editor of the Washington Union we dc
not think that Congress possesses the Constitution

day, the bill to increase the revenues derivable
from duties imports, also from the sales Of the
public lands, to aid in the prosecution of the War
with Mexico, was, after being amended, rejected
