FROM WAsmINeToN.-The Washington cor
pondent of the Nep York Post saws:

respondent of the Nep York Post says:
Mr.. Chase's report is before the Ways and
Means Committee, and they will proceed at
once to business. 1t is impossible to ascertain
the temper of Congress yet upon the PROPOSE
tons of Mr.. Chase. Many ofthe country mem
bers are violently opposed to anything which
interferes with the country banks. The men,
bers from the large cities are not opposed to
the plan of substituting government for bank
notes. There will be a very steady opposi-
ton among class of Republican members to
Mr.. Chase's propositions, and, united with the
Democrats, they may be able to defeat some
of them; but whatever legislation Mr.. Chase
or the government can demonstrate to be alb
solutely necessary to carry on the war, will be
granted by the House and Senate.
It's rumored here that Congress will, during
the present session, pass appropriation bills
covering the last two years of Mr.. Lincoln's
administration. 1t has the right under the
Constitution to do so, and will probably avail
itself of that right. The object is to prevent
any factious opposition next year, in case the
Democrats have control of one branch of the
national legislature.
Its not probable that the Presidents recon-
mendations respecting the change in the Con-
stitution will be acted upon this winter. Sew
eral prominent Republicans are known to lock
upon the recommendation with disfavor, and
there is no prospect Of obtaining a two-thirds
vote in favor OF the proposition. A decided
majority of both branches of Congress will sup
port the Presidents plan, but a majority will
not carry it. The Democrats already begin
to cry cut, no tnkering of the constitution, and
southern members say that the rebel States
can come back tomorrow under the consitu-
ton as IL is, if they will, and that they have
no inducements to come back and accept Mr..
Lincoln's amended constitution.
The Portland daily press., 1862-12-11

No one can glance over the annual commu-
nicatlons of the Heads of Departments at
Washington TO Congress, and reflect upon the
vast interests confided to these officers, and
welded for the perpetuity of the Government,
without feeling that, despite the old rebel con-
clusion that there was no Union," we are
yet one of the most formidable nationalities on
the globe. Embarrassed with our temporary
divisions we may be; but even at that, there
can be no great loss of confidence, there should
be no wayering in a great and noble purpose,
when We are called to take into consideration,
as in the reports from the Navy and War De-
partments especially, the immense amounts of
war material we, as a people, possess; some
thing that viii bear favorable comparison,
even after eighteen months only of prepare
ton, with the Oldest and most warlike nations
known.
And when we consider further, vast as
Is the quantity of arms and munitions of war
held In the loyal States, that the disloyal COM
munltes also have turned almost every avail
able resource to the purchase and Importation
OF arms from abroad, it is but natural that for
eign powers should take the alarm at the chan
ces they see of all this being combined into
one tremendous armament by the most active
and now, if it is not too much to say--the
most thorough and ingenious fighting COM
munity, whether by sea or land, known TO any
age. Well may they try by any and all deyi-
ces, to keep States like these asunder-well
may they acknowledge their dread of what

Mr.. Stimson's trotting mare, Fannie Bradbury,
probably the fastest in the State, has been sold
for about $1,000 and taken to New York
Fannie was raised in Hollis and owned by Ca
leb Bradbury, Esq, who sold her to Mr.. Slim
son for little over $500, about two years and
half since, at which time her education may
be said to have commenced. Her first appear
ance was at State Fair in Portland, where
she attracted much attention and trotted in

ance. Since then she has repeatedly done
much better, and one day last summer, in
Massachusetts, she trotted to wagon, on ba

GEN. WAsHINGroN's WML.-Henry S.
Brooks who was elected clerk of Fairfax coun-
ty, under the proclamation of Governor l.. III.
Pierpont, states in card to the Philadelphia
Inquirer, that Alfred Moss, former clerk of
Fairfax county, was the custodian of the
will of Gen. Washington. Prior to the
advance of our army last spring, Moss remov-
ed the documents in his Office to Warrenton.
Soon after the election of Mr.. Brooks, Jona-
than Roberts, the Union sheriff, learned that
the county records, papers, &c, were at War
renton. He went up Immediately, found the
Fairfax county records, &C., in possession of
Mr.. Jennings, county clerk of Farquier county.
They were in the clerks office, and boxed up
apparently as they were deposited in the office.
Mfr. Jennings declined to relinquish possess
ion of the records, &c, until they were de-
manded by an order from the Provost Mar
shall. The boxes containing the Fairfax coun-
ty records, papers, &c, were brought down by
Sheriff Roberts, and placed in possession of
Mr.. Brooks, in the clerks Office at Fairfax
Court House. The boxes were there opened
by Job Hawkhurst, Deputy Clerk, Jonathan
Roberts and Mr.. Brooks. They found every
thing of Importance, except the county seal
and the original Will of Gen. Washington.
From hints thrown out by the secession friends
OF Alfred Moss, he had taken special care of
these two articles.
