II 7H.7.ea7 .sLti New YoRk, April 10.
The New York Legislature adjourned last
night, leaving vast amount Of work unfin;sh-
ed. The State is left without funds to pay its
way. The Governor informs them that he
would not call an extra session, and if the
supply bills were not passed. the responsibility
must rest with the Legislature.
The Senate voted 20 sit a day or two longer
but the assembly determined to force an extra
session, and for that purpose spent the whole
day and evening in urging debts. AS the ap-
portionment bill must be passed before the
next election, it is probable the Governor will
convene the Legislature again this morning.
WASHINGTON, April 9.

espionage, and all correspondence deprecatory
of his government, is treated as reasonable
Hence mass of partial statements, inclina-
tons and apprehehsiens, keep our Minister
