Army appropriation Bill.

Hal Congress adjourned without max
ing the usual appropriations for onr
army, althoughIit was we'll known to
oil, that it was actually necessary
that such appropriations should be
made. The President called All ex.
ira session Of Congress and laid Be
fore it the necessity Of an appropri.
atioin, for the army, Yet the House,
in which the Aboltionists have a
majority, refuses to pass the bill with
ont lacking on to it a clause prohib.
ting prosecutions for treason under
the Kansas Nebraska Act.
This is the first time in the history
of the United States that Congress
has ever refused to make appropria.
tions for the. support Of our army O
the protection Of our frontier. by
such refusal millions of dollars will
be required to place the army upon
the same ground thatit now occupies
and the lives Of hundreds Of the set
tiers Of the far West viii be sacrificed
by the sayages who roam over eur
western territories. And all this
money must be wasted-all this
numbering of innocent women and
children must be endured, to appease
the anger Of the fanatical rebels Of
Abolitionism. We look upon this
act Of the Abolitionists as well cal
culated to bring about that object SO
eagerly sought BY them-the dissoln.
tionsof the Union.
