ConGscatlon in lle senate.

The United States Senate on Saturday
passed very mild confscNtion bill, which
is regarded es equivalent to decision
again all confscation.
The House having previously voted
two to one against the principle OF the
Senate bill, it is not probable they will
now agree to the latter.
The measure was carried through the
Senate By fusion of a portion Of the
Republicans with the opponents of con-
fiscation. The debate was animated
1t is thought conference committee
may be appointed, and that in this way
the measure may be improved some
what. r
Mr.. BRowNIss of Illinois, who favored
mild measures, said he had ne authority
to speak for the President, bur he had
reason 70 believe his views harmonized
with those OF Mr.. LINCOLN. KS Ass
An interesting synopsis Of the pro-
ceedings Of the Senate on this important
measure is given in our special dispatch

War Expenditures.



Tho war debt, according to Hon. In. L..
Dawes actually incurred hy Mr.. Lincoln
up to the present tire is SS5l no ,00O, or
S70d 57s,0 ,0o0 less than is estimated by
Mr.. Voorhees,, the friend aud supporter
Of James Buchanan.
Mr.. Dawes further proves from record
that taking tho civil expenditures Of the
two Administrations Mr. Buchanan in
his first ycnr spent $4,000 900 more than
Mr.. Lincoln; in his second year, 81 900 :
900 more: in his third year. $4,000. 600
more; aud in his fourth year, ST73,0CO
more.
The Nashville Union wonders why Mr..
Dawes did not remind Mr.. Buchaua uan's
friend orthc Utah war.
The cost Of that famous war CONSISTING
or one expedition under Gen. Albcr.
Sidney johnson, was something over 50,
600 600.
Now, IL ono expedition of say 10000
men cost Mr.. Buchanan $4,000 900. u
very simple calculation will show that
more than dozen expeditions Of urwnrd
of 10000 men, in tho aggregate, would

Injustice in Military Appoint


We are unncquainted with the military
fame of Gen. Rufus King, who has been
assigned TO the command Of Gen. Ere
mont's corps. Therefore, We are the
more unable to understand why he has
been appointed to the command over tho
experienced Generals in that corps
Generals Schenok and Milroy.
Gen. Schenck, the senior Brigadier
has been in active service in the urduous
campaigns of the war, aud has been uni
formly successful.
In the campaign this season he has
been in several severe engagements, in
which he displayed gcneralship.
That at this time, Just after the re-
markablc pursuit OF Jackson by is corps
Hn outside officer should he brought in
aud placed over Generals who have mer.
tied distinction by distinguished services,
is one of the unHccountablc things IN the
dealings of the Administration with that
department. Gin. Gds.

weeks two sheopish-looking persons are
seen dangling on each others arms,
looking at waterfalls, or guzzling wine

most monotonous routine; the vile sits
on one side of the hearth, the husband

gradually gather around them. This
