Repeal OF the Paper Duty.

The House of Representatives, agreed,
last Tuesday, by very decided vote, 10
repeal the twenty per cent gold duty on
printing paper and substitute therefor a
tax of three per cent dd rdl0rem. This is
one of tho wisest measures passed by the
IfOhse at its present session and we trust
that il will be concurred in by the Senate
at al early day. The following is the list
of yeas and nays on the passage OF the
bill. 1t will be seen that, of the West
Virginia delegation, two, Messrs: BLAIR
and WHALEY, voted for the repeal, and
one, Mr.. Brown, voted against it. This
vote will probably be remembered to
the disadvantage of the dissenting

in which lie discussed the question Of the ad-

an indefinite probation before recognizing their
right to representation at Washington. As a

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore sum
Washington, Nov. 2l.-Slnre sending
off my bulletin last night have heard
what strengthens me in the belief that the
President " Ill firmly maintain his p">l.
tion in reference 10 the restoration OF the
Southern States. If tie were, from the
considerations that usually operate upon
par izaus to change hts policy. 1t would
not lnsralldc The personal friendship OF

tina, he is supported By powerful presses
out side OF Soul ones, or those Of the

and desires % the @ul'ras likely 10 be for

Cation, as if he we're master Of the sIIna'
TOR Of the pelrry thai is 10 obtain IN Con

republicans Of Congress were at his back,
would he be regarded as The masters piFlI
TO whom the President or those sharing
his views, and therefore sincerrl y sup

impossible, when most powerful presses
of the republican party are directly oppo'
sing some of the most important Of the
positions of Mr.. Colfax. that there aGe
no members OF Congress who coincide
with them.
In connection with the ordering Of the

ceived his appointment as Secretary OF
The Legation 10 the Mexican Republic.
Hs has been intimately connected with
The President as his secretary, from boy

in relation to Mexican affairs.
1t is singular that when French troops
are arriving in small numbers in Mexico,
and the same sort Of troops, TO concillate

should be beld that Napoleon is about ic

any promise OF his to withdraw it; more
