rill offered an amendment, appropriating

lhat no further expenditure shall be
maze Tor an experimental system of hy-
draulic printing until such experiments
shall be duly authorized by law and appro-
priations made therefor.
MIR. Washburne said this mode of printing
was an experiment which, after n trial OF
more than 20 years, had been abandoned.

Wehts OF Mr.. Washburne were accurate and
others not. Congress had authorized the
Treasury Department to establish a print
ing bureau without limitation. What had
been done was in pursuance of positiye
law. His information was that there had
been losses incurred in obtaining machinery
now useless, but he had ascertained at the
treasury Department that more than four

lost.

i COMMUNICATIONS Generals from
different States-we don't know which or
how many-have been in session at our
State Capitol for three or four days. They
sit with closed doors, or which is the same
thing-reporters are not allowed to pub
lish their proceedings. After they get
through, perhaps they will let the public
know what they have been driving at. o
We understand, however, that ten States
are represented in the Convention, and that
Its object is to devise ways and means for
facilitating the raising of troops, and for
promoting the efficiency of the military
service generally. s.

Positive and Interesting Fact.
-"Facts are stubborn things" no matter
where found. 1t is positive and at the
same time d most interesting fact, that our
sick soldiers, who are so fortunate as to Cb-
tain bottle of PINKERToN's WAHoo AND
CALIsAYA BITTERs, gain strength much
faster, and are sooner able to do duty on
the battlefield, than those who are de-
privcd of them. This is owing to the stub
born fact that these Bitters are the greatest
renovator and purifier OF the blood ever be-
fore offered to the public. This is no idle
talk. No one ever used these Bitters but
was highly delighted with the beneficial
results arising from their daily use. We
are glad to learn that steps are being taken
to supply the sick soldiers in our camps
and hospitals with these Bitters. 1t is a
humane and benevolent object. Druggists
and wholesale dealers always have these
Bitters for sale. The genuine article has
the name of Jacob Pinkerton blown on
each bottle.
For sale by J. III. Barcus & Co., Steinberg-
er, Fairchild & Co, and G. Roberts & Co,

OPERA HoUsE.-"Ingomarn was played
last evening before large and admiring
audience. Miss Olive Logan's Parthcnia
was excellent, and she depicted the various
alternations of sentiment and passion with
clear conception of the character. Mr..
Evans underwent the transformation from
a rude barbarian to a civilized Greek with
a good grace, and exhibited in strong con-
trast the struggle between love and pride.
Tonight Miss Logan takes benefit.
Her merits, as graceful and talented act
ress enttle her to generous patronage.
The play is that fine sensational one of
Camille, in which she will assume the lead
ing character. She will also appear in the
farce of "Our Country Cousin" Let every
one contribute his share to swell the audi
ence at Miss Logan's benefit tonight.

however, wish to sell for longer time than
