THE WAYS AND MEANS

The Committee of Ways and Means on Monday
reported, in the House of Representatives, bill
for authorizing the borrowing of twenty-three mil
lions of dollars to defray the war expenses incur
red and to be incurred. The bill authorizes this
borrowing to be made either by the issue of Trea-
sury Notes, or by Loans, at the discretion of the
Executive. One quality Of the Treasury Notes is
their being convertible, at the pleasure of the holder
into Government Stock bearing interest OF six
per cent. This provision will, to a certain extent
assist to sustain their circulation. But the best
judges doubt the ability of the Treasury to keep
out larger amount than Ten Millions even of the
most acceptable form of Treasury Notes. For the
residue of the deficit in the Treasury, Loans seem
to be relied upon, as there is no proposition from
the Ways and Means Committee, such as should
have preceded the Loan Bill, for either increasing
the present taxes or laying new ones

WAR MEASURES.

The bill authorizing an addition to the present
Military Establishment of the United States of
regiment of dragons and nine regiments Of infan-
try, after being amended so to limit their service
to enlistment for and during the war with Mexico,
and to require that the regiments so to be raised
shall be Immediately discharged from the service
of the United States at the close of the war with
Mexico, has passed the House of Representatives
by very large majority, and is now before the Sc
nate for concurrence.
In the Senate, bill was reported by the Militia
ry Committee, pursuant TO the Presidents recon-
mendation, for establishing the rank of Lieutenant
General in the Army, and received its first reading.

DEATH OF SENATOR pENNYBACKER.

The death of another Senator, the Hon. ISAAC S
PENNYBAcKER, of Virginia, in the meridian and prime
oflfe, little turned forty years of age has afford
ed to his associates i'll the Senate, and also to the
assembled Representatives, pregnant lesson OF
the uncertainty of life, and of the importance oil
employing well and usefully that which remains to
his survivors.
The portraitures Of the character Of the deceased,
by his colleague in the House and his personal
friend in the other, leave us almost nothing to say
on that subject. As far as we had an opportunity
of personally knowing the deceased, however, he
has appeared to us to be man of great honesty of
purpose. of solid judgment, and of exemplary
fidelity to what he believed to be his duty in public
life
