NEVER GIVE Up THE QuEUE.-In re-
cent trial of case, in Charleston, in
yolying a question of war, Mr.. Hayne,
the Attorney General, >humoreusly mar,
rated the following Q,sae-rious anec-.
dote: g
IAN officer, during the revolutionary
war, who prided himself greatly on his
queue. had been ordered to cut off the
caudal appendage by hi. commander.
This he Indignantly refused TODD, saying
'he would die before he wo,ld part tcifh has
queue He was thereupon arraigned be-
fore Court. Martial for his contumacy;
but the scourt-mihtary, as the chancery
courts arc too apt to do, but with better
reason than the latter, postponed their
decision, from time to time, from a re.
luctance to give judgment against the Of
fender. The result was that the officer
died before the case had been adjudicated,
having, under the influence of the ruling
passion, strong in death, first made his
will, directing that he should be buried
with his queue uncut, and that it should
be protruded through hole, bored in his
coffin, to give the world the occular de-
monstration' that he had been literally
true to his word, and had died with his
queue on. E

poINas IN CONGRESS.

SEyATE.-After we had left, some further
time was spent on the private calendar, thirty
ak Senate bills and twelve House bills having
been passed, and forty postponed on account of
objections raised.
A few bills were afterwards introduced, and
Messrs. Badger and Gwin severally gave
notice that they should ask to be heard on
Monday. the former Senator on the subject of
taking up the bill allowing credit for duties
on railroad iron, and the latter on the Pacific
railroad BILL
On motion of Mr.. Badger, the Senate then
adjourned until Monday.
In THE HOUSE, yesterday: after We went to
press, they refused to lay on the table the bill
authorizing the Postmaster General to con-
tract for the transportation Of the mails be-
tween New Orleans and San Francisco--yeas
&c, nays IS.
Mr.. Latham then addressed the House, urg-
ing the necessity of ado. ting something like
the principle of that biii.
Mr.. McMullen addressed the house in favor
of committing the bill, until the expiration of
the morning hour
When MI. Parker reported from the Judi.
ciary, bill to defrsy the legal expenses grow.
ing out of the burning of the Martha Wash
ington. Mr. p. addressed the House in favor
of this bill.
After further debate between Messrs. Jones
of Tenn, against it, and Stanton, of Tenn.
| for it, the House went ipto Committee of tn,
Whole on the state of the Union, {Mr. Orr il
the chair,) and taking up the Civil and Diplo
! matte Appropriation bill, Mr.. Caruthers ad
dressed the committe in favor of the Nebrask;

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The InteHigeqeer deliberately criticises
the last United States Grinnell Expedi-
ton. Its article, on that work, is able
aid interesting.
The Union compliments Senator Tcu-
cey and his colleague, Mr.. Ingersoll, for
their course on the Nebraska question.
The same journal contains long COM
munication from Ex-Governor Steele, of
New Hampshire, who is now in Wash
ington, against the employment of mill
tary men in experimenting civil works of
the Government. The Governor writes
earnestly and Indignantly. He is credit
ed in Washington with being himself an
applicant for the post of superintendent
of the Springfield armory. Ifso, his ap.
pearance in the newspapers in this con-
nection is cool" decidedly.
The Sentinel replies at length to the
Gnlon's late leader on the subject of mill
itary supervision of civil works.

have been printed for six hundred dollars
less money. The expenses are now
Sl.O3S weekly, and weekly losses, at
three cents a copy, are $500, which the
proprietor is barely able to make upon
advertising. The New York papers say,
the only thing that has kept half the
papers Of New York alive at all, during
the past year, has been the prosperous
condition of business, and the consequent
large amount of advertising. A sirgle
bad season of advertising would be sufR-
Gent to break down many of these papers.
As matters now stand, they are girmg
to their subscribers hundreds of dollars
every day, at the expense of advertisers.
They are, in fact, paying people for
taking their papers.
