chance for the democratic candidate to 90 even

certain of being chosen by the people.

New York would go wing, by an overwhelming
majority. Pennsylvania would be lost on the tariff
as II was in lS4S. Maryland would be wing; and
Virginia. with Southern candid ate running by the
side OF the nominee OF the convention, would be
wing, 10 all ntens and purposes. Mississippi
would he whig; Georgia would be wing; and, In
all probability, Louisiana and Florida. South Ca

would be wing, along with Tennessee; and Ohio
would only be carried with great difficulty. To

Mr.. Bsyly, Chairman Of Ways and Means,
called the attention of the House TO The fact TO-DAY
that the following appropriation bills have yet to DO
acted upon, 10 wit
The Civil and Diplomatic bill.
The Army bill.
The Navy bill.
The Post Office bill.
The Fertilization bill.
The West Point Academy bill.
The Indian bill.
The Revolutionary Pension bill.
The Naval Pension bill.
These are the indispensable annual appropriation
bills, necessary 10 keep the wheels OF government
in operation, and the 90. 600 dependents upon the
treasury their stated supply OF bread and but
ter. They have TO be passed, and they have all
frs, TO pass the House before the Senate can touch
any one Of them. In the meantime, the Senate
can amuse itself on che hostages, and the deci-
encies OF the last years appropriations. But We
have our misgivings respecting the following SUD-
Ieets'-
The French Spoha,ion bill of five millions
The Ebony ste amship line TO Africa.
The Rio Janeiro and Philadelphia line.
The San Francisco and Canton line.
The Free Farm bill, for settling every body on
the public lands free Of cost
Whtney's Pacific Railrosd bill.
The River and Harbor hill
The subject Of Home Protection,
The bill for a Western Armory.
And numerous Others, public and private. Se-
yefal Of these, however, could be passed readily
enough, If the House could get u fair swing at
them; but two-third vote being required to lit a
bill out OF it's order II any member should object,
makes the case extr. mely doubtful. II we get
cheap postsges and the annual appropriations. we
shal be doing very well All the rect will be clear
gain. Cheap hostages will also be clear gam.
We understand that Mr.. Joha C. Rives has se-
cured large share Of the pubob printing, un der
contract for the next Congress, at prices less than
Father Riches. II this be so, Father Richie
must have made money, or Rives must calculate
for indemnity for all losses, under the idea that
Mr. Richie will be indemnIiied This sort of
thingiwil be 80 TIL we have a national printing
Office.
