The GOVERNMENT FINANCES. - The
Chairman of the Ways and Means Commit

House to vote on the Treasury Bill on
Thursday. Representative Hooper spoke
Tuesday. He was listened to with marked
attention, it being considered clear exposi-
ton of the views of the Treasury Depart
ment on the financial question. The Secre-
tary, in letter to the Committee, says the
general provisions of the bill seem we'll adapt
ed to the end proposed; that the provision
making the notes a legal tender was doubt
less we'll considered by the Committee, and
same conclusions He st grsst f liars IS ttSS

LAKE AND RIVER FoRrIFIcATroNs.--
The select committee on the Notifications OF
lakes and rivers, ara prepared to- make q re-
port. They will recommend the erection of
such Notifications at Mackinaw as will make
il a second Gibraltar, as II is clearly the key
of our Northwestern frontier. They Will
also recommend the establishment OF ma
tional depot and national armory upon Lake
Michigan, probably at or near Chicago, and
that preparations be Immediately made for
the accumulation OF the proper arms and
ammunition to arm the American vessels
which are engaged in commerce upon the
Western lakes. 1t is estimated that are there
1900 American to 500 British, and $4,000
American seamen TO 5000 British ON the
lakes, 1t is represented by the Committee
that the majority of the population Of the
eniIeu s, ,..1s is west the Allegheny noun
tains, and the line of lake coast exceeds the
whole length OF the Atlantic coast from Pas.
samaqueddy Bay to the Florida capes, and
that our commerce on the lakes is greater
than our whole foreign trade. To complete
the deiences and render communication with
all parts of the West secure from interrupt
ton from a foreign foe, it will be also recon-
mended that military railroad shall be
Immediately constructed from Minomomee
or Badenoquet on Lake Michigan to Mar
quette on Lake Superior, and that a ship
canal shall be built from Chicago to the Mis-
sissippi river. 1t is said that these recon-
mendatons have the approval of General
Mcclellan. The report will probably be
made tomorrow

So vast an army has been marshaled in
this district, that no proper arrangements
have been made for even decent interment
Of those who are in our hospitals. Their
bodies have often been hurried to the nearest
place ofsepulcher where they have been pro-
niiscuously buried together. Many relatives
and friends have consequently made fruitless
visits to the army of the Potomac to recover
the dead bodies of their deceased friends,
This sad state of things has arrested attention
in Congress, and committee is now charged
with the duty of considering the subject of
providing national cemetry for soldiers, in
this neighborhood, where all our fellow citi-
zens who die in the national cause may find
a resting place and their graves become mat
tiers ofrecord, and to the end that no doubt
may exist as to the identity of those who re-
pose within them.
From the general disposition manifested,
there seems to be no doubt that an act for the
purpose indicated will be passed.

The Paris correspondent of the London

It is not true, as some journals represent,
that the French Government has taken any
steps to bring about reconciliation between
the North and South.
Mr.. Massey, member of Parliament, had
delivered speech before his constituents, at
Stafford, in which he advocated that the
European powers should interfere and re-
cognize the Confederate States, and break
the blockade. The London Times in an
editorial upon it, says-Let France inter
fere if she likes. England's true policy is to
suffer little longer, and let the event work
itself out 1t will not be long. 1t may, in
deed, be doubtful whether our interference
would not rather retard than hasten the de-
sired event of opened ports and a large sup
ply of cotton. Let us, then, pursue our hon
est policy of standing quite aloof.
The Manchester Guardian argues IN
somewhat similar strain, and as regards the
cotton supply, it says:
Il is question how far IN this district the
America, and whether it is not as much at
,ributable to over production as to mere
dearth of cotton.
The brig West Indian from Charleston, s.
c., Dec. gath, with cargo OF spirits turpen-
tine, had arrived at Liverpool. Her Captain
represents the federal blockade Of Charles

the stone blockade, so far from stopping the
enterance TO the port, will eventually deepen
the shallow channels.

Quarter Master Gen. Meigs has addressed
a circular to all officers of his Department
1t appears, he says, that memoranda of
rates OF transportation by Railroad sent to
some of the principal Quarter Masters intend
ed by the Department to be used as a guide,
in settling accounts as limit beyond which
no payments would be allowed in any case,
has been by some officers misunderstood,
and considered as fixing government tariff
IN Esss g Be gad il all They
officer of the Government in making con-
tracts for services or materials, and in max
ing purchases, to make them at the lowest at
tainable rates. In no case should the Gov
eminent pay higher rates than an individual
or corporation for the same services or the
same materials Any quartermaster who
allows through freights TO be charged as
local freights at higher rates than are ordi-
narily paid on goods sent over long dis
tances, violates his duty. The rates for
transportation for passengers specified in the
tariff above referred to, were at the tims of
transportation understood to be one-third
below the ordinary rates upon railroads in
the Middle States, and on Western railroads
freights and passenger charges are generally
at lower rates than the Middle States, and
that which would be a fair compensation to
a road In the mountains of tue East would be
a very high rate over the easy grades of the
cheaply constructed railroads Of the prairie
country.
The Sub Committee of Ways and Means
have prepared rough draft of the new tax
bill, which will at once be printed for pri.
