CLuNGMAN COMPLAINING.

A lc1g letter touching the defeat of the Post
Office Appropriation bill, written By Senator
Clrpman 10 The Standard one Of the few journals
in North Carolina, /" di,close'," to borrow the
expression of The Union, which copies the dOcl-
ment in full, the important fact that the House
was for several days in possession of the bill, as
I" it was returned to the by the Senate" A dis
closure, indeed However important If true, IN
fortunately it is untrue!
The bill, taddled with fifteen or twenty amend
II ents, passed the Senate at about 9 o'clock on
Tuesday evening 1! may have reached the House
lat same evening, but probably did not until
Wednesday, the whole of which day was devoted
TO the consideration of the Senate's amendments to
various other Appropriation bills. The first public
business transacted Thursday concerned the bill
in question, which Mr. Phelps called up; where
upon Mr.. Grow raised his question Of privilege
and was sustained by the House. Thus, The
URion's "several days" Senator Clingnan's
"some time" is shown by the record to be just
ole dsy, and that day occupied with bills the
passage Of which was quite as necessary to Gov
eminent a. that defe ,ted, and principally with
amendments tackled to those bills by Senator Cling
mans and The UuiOx's political friends 10 the
Senate.
But if there was an instsn unnecessary delay
uhc,e fault was it Mr.. Grow could not take his
point until the bill was before the House where it
was the business Of the Chairman of the Commit.
tee on Ways ard Mean, to bring it 1t was for
him to judge in what order TO consider the Appro-
priatien bill; and he would doubtless have re-
sebted any inference with his prerogative. Ba:
