representatives. win identified, under the existing
laws, TO their per diem for the proposed recess,
and also extra mileage on the same score" This,
an exchange says, will strike the constituents of
the Honorable gentlemen as a decision Of extra
ordinary breadth; and yet is one Which will meet
with universal appreciation. Indeed il would af-
ford general satisfaction if the present Congress
wsfe paid sixteen dollars day when at home and
eight when in Washington upon something like
the principle which governs the employment of
physicians in China, who paid only while
their patients are well.

Lynchburg daily Virginian. [volume] (Lynchburg [Va.]) 1852-1861, 1854-06-08

The Washington correspondent Of the Jour
nal of Commerce says the Presidents proclnma-
ton against the Fillibusteros is the consequence
of authentic information received some days ago
in regard 10 preparations made for formidable
descent upon.Cuba, by an American and Foreign
force. under Gen. Quitman. More than week
ago surprise was expressed by conservative SEN
ators, that these contemplated expeditions were
not properly noticed. The very early aud spe-
eial Cabinet meeting that took place yesterday
morning had reference to this matter. 1t was
determined in the Cabinet some days ago, that
fllibustering should be discouraged and rebuked
while at the same time, il was agreed TO nsk for
provision for a special mission 10 Spain, n re-
laton to Cuban matters, and an application for
provisional means for the commencement of hos
tilities, should any necessity for them arise in
the opinion of the President.
