A SECURE LocK-Itis but justice to say that it
was Butterworth's B ank Lock which was on tho
vault door Of the Merchants Insurance Company,
in the basement of the new Ocean Bank building
in Greenwichst corner Of Fulton, which proved
to be secure protection against the burglars on
Wednesday night last, Notwithstanding they
! found duplicate keys of the safe in desk, and
had fair chance to work undisturbed and at leis-
ure. Mr.. Butterworths lock has had four years
trial, and it is said has been picked and
that it is impossible for the maker himself to un-
lock or pick it, unless the combination which is
changeablel should be given him. There is no
key hole, nor aperture to admit powder or gun
cotton This lock is kept for sale by the maker
at Dover N. j. and by George D. Baldwin, in the
building of the Manhattan Company, 40 Wallst.

We call upon the Register again to show Its hand

toy, and in whose behalf Government had inter-
posed, have been released by the Spanish au,hori-

Mr.. Crawford, late Secretary of War, has address,

indelicacy of the connection of Cabinet Minister
with such claim. He is looked upon as the recPi-

secure the interest money, which was paid directly
or indirectly through his Agency. Supposing the
claim to be just one, which We deny, or Congress
to have authorized the payment of principal and in

taken to decide the fate of the bill. Mr.. Webster
will address the Senate to-day and it is probable
that Mr.. Foote'S important amendments, which he
submitted yesterday, with the concurrence Of many of
the friends of the bill, will be decided. Mr.. Hae's
motion to lay the bill on the table may come up in
the course of the day.
The two amendments submitted by Mr.. Foote yes
terday are calculated to gain friends the bill in
quarter where has met with strong opposition. One
amendment raises the boundary line of Texas to the
34th degree of latitude; and the other urges upon
California the formation of territorial govern
