WASHINGTON. June [

WASHINGTON, June g.
The Japanese princes, accompanied by
their principal officers and the general Com
missioner, proceeded to the executive man
sion, to-day at noon, to take leave of the
President.
The latter received them in the blue
room, in company with Gen. Cass, and sew
eral other gentlemen. The interview was
cordial and of comparatively long continu-
ance.
The distinguished visitors, through their
interpreter, expressed their high apprecia-
ton of the Presidents address, and of the
many kind attentions bestowed on them.
The President presented to each of the
princes large gold medal, bearing his like
ness and a suitable inscription, struck at the
Philadelphia Mint, and also number of
beautifully bound books. These were re-
ceiyed with evident delight. At parting
the hand shaking was mutually cordial,
and the interview throughout was of a
gratifying and pleasant character.
There seems to be but little if any doubt
that the House bill for the admission of
Kansas into the Union will pass the Senate
whether with or without amendments is
uncertain.
Senator Bigler to-day declared he would
vote for the measure without qualification.
The Lwo Houses disagreeing on the ques-
ton of restoring the mail service, COM
mittee of conference has been appointed
consisting Of Senators Pearce, Yulee, and
Cameron; of Representatives Colfax, Wash
burne, OF Me-, and Crawford.
The Postmaster General has answered
the call concerning air. Fowler's defalca-
ton, and makes some extraordinary revela-
1t appears that his accounts were never
legally settled during the whole term of his
Administration, bnt were adjusted by fc-
titious system, in apparent violation of the
letter and spirit of the law.
Since the House amended the Pacific
Telegraph bill by throwing the construction
open to the lowest bidder, it has been dis
covered that a certain gigantic monopoly
intends, if the Senate concur in this amend :
ment, 10 bid so low as 10 prevent any other
party from procuring the contract, at living
rates, thus securing the entire contract of
telegraphing from the Atlantic to the Paci-
fc and increasing the power ofthe monopo-
IL alluded to- to a still more dangerous eX-
tent than now.
