possible that the River and Hsrbor bill can

it il impossible that the House can dispose Of

the General Appropriation bills by Friday
next at noon. As matters stand, It looks very
doubtful indeed, whether, unless the intended
movement to prolong the session succeeds, it
will not terminate With more or less of the
crest supply BIZ failing of ensctment.. The
House have esrtsiuly done their best to be
ready in due time to separate. But the Senate
have yet to act on oil the supply bills almost
ab tnitio, except the Civil and Diplomatic
bin. How they can dispose Of them properly
by Friday ct noon, is just now past our COM

Democratic circles, thst whenever the River

A RESPECTABLE sLAYDFRFR

Our comments upon the fsehoods rotailed by the New
York Commercial Advertiser against the general admins
raon, including the President have put that respectable
journal in the explanatory attitude u prevacatcs and
denies with true Pharisee knaTey This is characteristic
Of the school Carker always tried to ola fraud
no matter whom he compromised long career Of cheat
ing and lying was brought to sudden and fatal end and
his example viii be lesson to similar offenders for years
TO come The Advertiser win remember hereafter that
while abrcatons and calumnies Of the New York prqs
exhale like 80 much miasma from the rocking columns the
Express, Herald and Tribune is best for the public
health that they should be suffered pass away but
when decent newspaper like the Advertiser seeks TO give
them form and currency they win be nailed to the counter
like any other counterfeit
