The United States Senate on Thursday ADOPTED
resolution calling upon the Secretary of the Trea.
sury for information relative to palpabe violation
Of the existing Subtreasury law, to which atten-
ton was called as far back as January last 1t is
stated that this violation of law was committed by
depostng the public moneys in the Philadelphia
Bank for the payment of the interest upon the pub
lie debt due in that city, and by paying such inter-
est in bank notes instead OF specie. This is only
one of many instances in which that ridiculous law
has been openly disregarded. The absurdity of
the law, however, affords no excuse for its viola
ton, especially on the part of the Secretary of the
Treasury, who so strenuously urged its adoption
upon ongress.-.4merican.

DELEGATES TO THE WING CONVENTION.

AS the time approaches for the meeting of the
Wing National Convention at Philadelphia, Dele
gates to it are daily arriving in this city, on their
way to the place Of meeting. We have seen
already several from Ohio, Indiana, &C., besides
the Members of each House who are constituted
Delegates. We are happy to find but one spirit
among them. There are, of course, differences OF
opinion as to the relative fitness or availability OF
the several gentlemen who have been put in noml-
nation by their friends; but there is no difference
in point of the determination to support, or in the
hope to elect to the Presidency, the citizen upon
whom the nomination by the Convention shall fall.
This determination has lost of its force by the
results of the Convention just held at Baltimore by
the opposite party, but rather acquired greater
strength.

FROM THE NEW MORMON SETTLEMENT

Late accounts received at St. Louis from the Salt
Lake settlement represent that the Indians have
commenced open hostilities against the Mormons.
They attacked them in their towns and encamp-
menis, and have most cruelty and barbarous muir
dered large number of men, women, and children.
An express has been sent by the Mormons to
ST. Louis asking for assistance and for armed forces
to protect them from the fearful ravages threatened
by their murderous and savage foes. No cause is
assigned by the Indians for their conduct They
threaten vengeance and declare their full determi-
nation to put il into execution.

Gen. CADwALADER, it seems, Notwithstanding
the previous denial of the Union,' did tender his
resignation of his commission previous to leaving
the army in Mexico. We now learn, however,
from the above-named source, that, with the per-

Withdrawn, its tender having been {" caused merely
by the necessity OF temporary absence from duty.

In the next preceding statement, corresponding with
statement Of the Secreas report is evident that The
Treasury twice charged with the amount Of NOTES funded
In the first place 1t 10 charged with the whole aoun, az notes
issued during the quarter, ncudng those subsequently, fund.-
and II is Afterwards charged with the amount az ock
issued TO fund those notes But this apparent Injustice n Inc
Treasury corrected, by claiming credit for the amount Of
notes reimbursed funded by the stock thus issued which
in reality, was expense to the Treasury.
II will be that the marked ~ are inced n,
both sides OF the account those side exactly
those on the other, serving, in the opinion of the comms
other purpose than swell the accounts of the
to somewhat more imposing, but altogether
amount.
In the last statement being credit claimed by the Seca
ary for the Of 50, 1929 3d. is perfectly obvious thai
the three sums marked amounting S77O 37s were
not paid at the Treasury, and cannot be Justly claimed as
credit except being necessary to counebaance the same
amount needessly and, the committee conceive un;p.
introduced the other side Of the account as ayaIs
to the Treasury. Deducting this amount the credit Of
ST. 329 So dwndles down to S6495l 49, which is the
whole amount that actually paid the Treasury during
that quarter account Of redemption of Treasury notes
and interest"
The committee next direct their attention to statement q

able on the LIST of OCTOBER S47 Of the loans Of 1916 and
