LAND wARRANs NOT Ass.GNABLE.

1t would appear, after all, that the bill
making Military Bounty Land Warrants
assignable was defeated in the House after
it passed the Senate. 1t does not appear in
the list of acts from the Washington papers,
published yesterday A New York letter
says:
THE failure of the bill making land war;
rants assignable has induced holders TO ad-
vance prices. To day the quotations are
1876 Sl45. A month ago they were offer

CONVERSATIONS OF THE SESSION.

The second session of the thirty first Con-

adjourned at uoon, and the Senate short
time thereafter. Our correspondence in an
other column furnishes an account of what
was done in the two Houses from the date
Of our previous letter to the time of final ad-
journment. All the general Appropriation
Bills were passed; but we regret to add that
many other important Bills failed to receive
the final sanction of Congress, prominent
