Thursday Morning, December "a, 1857.

CHRISTMAS is near at hand. Tomorrow will
usher in the joyful period, which by happy
childhood and youth is always anticipated with
mingled visions of Santa Claus and stockings
hanging near the fireplace well filled with toys
and sweetmeats- of holidays and pleasant greet
ings-of merry-makings, feasts and frolic. May
all such pleasant anticipations be realized and
may all our readers, young and old, enjoy with
zest the approaching Christian jubilee.

PASSAGE OF THE TREASURY NOTE Bull
The Senate on Saturday last passed the bill au-
thorizing the issue of Treasury Notes, as recon-
nended by the administration as a temporary
relief to the finances Of the government. The
vote was 81 in favor Of the measure and 13 a
gainst it. The amount authorized by the bill is
500, OOO,O 900, but an amendment limits the epe-
ration of the measure to January 1, 1859, and
provides That 40 note ehan be issued of a less
denomination than $780, Upon the first six
millions the rate Of interest is to be fixed by the
President and Secretary of the Treasury, while
the remaining fourteen are to be awarded to the
highest bidder. The notes are to be receivable
in payment Of all public dues, and are to be re-
issuable. 1t is supposed that per cent. inter-
est will keep the issues at par.
This bill was also passed by the House on
Tuesday, without any amendment. The vote
