whereas the Household, the 18th inst pass preans
Ole and resolution condemnatory Of the Pres
oent Of the United States and doing exceeded its
stutona power and acted upon amaer which they
had no jurisdictions and whereas this action Of the House
was pore and therefore unfair towards the President
OF the United States and as manfesty improper that
such an extraordinary, illegal and unconstitutional act
shodid remain upon its journals, therefore,
Resolved, That on the day following the passage
Of this resolution, the Clerk of the House shall
bring into 1t the Journal containing . record Of
the aforesaid proceeding, when abe Speaker shall
draw black lines across the border and edge
lines Of said resolutions and shall write their midst in
large iesibe letters the words expunged by order Of
the House Of Representatives, adding thereto the date Of
80 doing.
nm GOVERNMENT ESTIMATES.
The Secretary u the Treasury, Ia recent communca
ton 70 Mr. Sherman, Chairman o. the Committee OF Ways
and Means says the receipts from customs lands and mis-
celaneous Eve millions less than he had est
mated The House decreased hts estimates for carrying
on the government 10 the extent Of million
and . half, but the Senate having added eight
millions In It's amendments 70 the various appropriation
bills, he informs the committee that there will be de-
nciency during the fiscal year, soon 10 commence OF
about seven Millions addition TO the treasury notes
these extraordinary amendments be sanctioned
BY both Houses win 10 necessary 70 ausmens
Che means for carrying them into effect he, however,
makes further suggestions but remarks that tho pub
to debt ought not 10 be increased. From thd
prcseut temper Of the House II will undoubt-
edly insist on the position indicated last night
against the twenty-one million loan, the propo-
siton being attached 70 an appropriation bill on the
ground that revenue which the Senate has
constitutional right TO originate. But II the Senate
should send back tho Morrill, bill in an amended form,
striking out the tariff but retaining the loan feature the
House win consider this AZ inpcpendent proposition
II is probable that House. In the failure to procure
change In the tariff will not beyond an authorization
of seizure Treasury notes 10 meet present exsencies

finally passed The Military bill is In the hands Of Com

vcrsy.

ing FIVE dollars and upwards OF cents be allowed the pri
vege Of changing them for gold silver at the United
States Mint The amendment just one, and ought 10
be adopted.
