This ame1dmeut was agreed to, when Mr..
HUGHES moved 70 amend 50 ns to providelthat
he shall have interest upon the checks.
Mr.. WELSH objected to the payment of the
interest, 40 he thought the claim was some
what mixed one, and that the payment Of the
farce of the checks might be considered

Mr.. PARROTT supported the amendment Of
Mr.. Hughes. asproper and right.
Mr.. HERRlCK took the position of Mr..
Mr. ROBINSON objected to the payment Of
the interest, as bad precedent. The State has
not been in the habit Of paying interest, at least
till an appropriation is made.
Mr.. PLANTS thought If the State owed
the money, 1t was only an act Of justice to pay
MI. CLAPP was willing, in the way of com.
promise, to pay the face Of the checks, but he
could not vote for interest. F IN
| Mr.. PARSONS moved an amendment provi-
ding that the payment of this claim shall be re-
garded by Mr.. Doyle as an entire cancelling OF
his claims upon the State, for damages under
his recent contract with the State-which
amendment was agreed TO.
Mr.. CLAPP was 10 favor Of paying the in
terest. In his private capacity, he should ex
pect to pay it, and he did not see why the Statt
should refuse to pay It,
i Mr. VINCENT objected to the payment Of {
given claim, with interest, but that gros
amount should be fixed, including interest, j
allowed, but not passed upon at loose ends.y
MIR. HILLS opposed the payment of the in
terest, and indeed did not feel disposed to vot
for the claim at all.
Mr.. PARSONS explained that the object o
his amendment was to cut off all future claims
and objected TO the principle of paying interes
upon the amount, as 1t would establish prece
dent that might be troublesome. @ ~VAa r
Mr. JONAS explained thecircumstances fur

good by the State, and, therefore, ought to b
paid now, and the interest also. -
Mr.. BROWNE, of Miami, further explai ne
the nature of the claim.

Frsm Liberia.

In the Colonization Herald, for this month,
wv find the message of President Benson to the
Legislature of Liberia. Affairs are In highly
prosperous condition. The receipts into the pub.
lie treasury for the year ending lSeptember 30,
1860. were $67,334, and the disbursements
$67 $50. The former shows an increase Of 500.
1872; the latter includes the payment of nearly
$4,000 of Indebtedness. Peace continues to
prevail with the surrounding native tribes, and
tranquility among the Liberians.- Only one diff
fculty remained with tribe about thirty-five
miles from Cape Palmas, and the propriety of
sending an expedition thither is submitted for
consideration.
The production Of exportable articles in 1860
was more than two hundred per cent. In advance
of the preceding year. The national fair, ,insti-
tuted few years ago, had done much to stimu.
late general industry. The natives were de-
voting themselves to the production Of palm oil,
dye woods, cotton cloths, &C.; while civilized
people turned their attention to sugar, syrup,
moiasses and coffee. About thirtysper cent.
Of the trade was carried on with the United
States. 4Ar"+N n Ffif t.fr

yosion to the Union. This is the gentleman for
whom the Northern Democrats voted for speak,

Mr.. sHraMAs called the member from this Dis,
trict (Mr. Cox to account, for that vote, be-
cause, as he falsely alleged, Gen. HAMILTON
was disunionist and free eater. Yet the Texas
member, amid the faithless and dlsunion spirit
abroad, both North and South, to-day stands
faithful and proves, himself a patriot, The
Northern Democrats who voted for him for
Speaker, may well be proud Of their support of
such a man. The other member voted for BY
