WASHINGTON, Jan. "a bill recently introduced
by Senator Lane provides for the settlement of the
Oregon and Washington war debt Of 1856 accord
ing to the military canon, who spent Y months in
the examination of claims, to guard against specu-
lators the money proposed to be paid only to the
original claimants their legal attorneys or as
signees. The amount involved is about S. 900 600.
The bin Is altogether independent Of the measure
now in progress at the Treasury Departments for
scaling the various items of the army standard.
1t is known that Senator Toombs. during the Con-
gressiOnal recess, has carefully prepared general

the unsettled political condition of the country.
One of the bills introduced by Mr.. Davis, to-day,
authorizes the Secretary of War to issue to am
State Territory, on application of the Governor
thereof, such arms as may be spared, provided an
amount sufficient to replace them By fabrication be
deposed and also proposes to restore the military

COMMUNICATION

MUEFREEsBoRo', Tenn, Jan. Z, 60
MEssRs. EDrToRs I am glad to notice from gem
eral expression Of opinion, and from the county
meetings throughout the State that general desire
is manifested by the Democracy to have that most
gallant defender of Democratic principles, Hon.
CLINT ATKINS, on the ticket for State Elector.
The writer Of this has just returned from tour
through West Tennessee, and can say from his own
observation, that it is the unanimous wish Of the
Democracy Of that portion Of the State, and espe-
cially the Ninth district, that Gen ATKINS should
have the position alluded to-
Gen. ATKINS made one Of the most gallant cam
paigns that has ever been made in Tennessee. and
was beaten eight votes, by The most glazing fraud
on record, and think the Democracy should honor
him for his noble fight As orator, and able
debater, he has superior in the State-while his
afable manners are such to win the favor of all
With Gen. ATKINS, of West, and Col. LANDoN C.
HAYNES. Of East Tennessee, think the Democracy
will carry the State for the Charleston nominee by
twenty thousand. y OBSERVER.

THE MUNCIAUSEN STORY FROM BoLIvAR-As was
stated in our paper yesterday the version of slight
disturbance at Bolivar, which made so much noise
it sent the wings Of the telegraph first to
the Dem0crGt IN this city, and thence ali over the
Union, was gross eXaggeration Of what a paper
published in Bolivar says was an extremely trivial
affair, that did not amount to respectable Christ
froc.' Instruction, we infer, never seriously
entered the head of anybody there 1t would seem
to have been the sportive invention Of some idle ge
MUS who wanted to make sensation. which it Is so
easy TO do in such connection. If So his chanueI
