The bill to facilitate postal, commercial and
military communication among the several
States finally passed the Senate on Tuesday, but
so amended that it is shorn Of hafits power to
carry out the object for which it was designed,
which was to deprive New Jersey nd=other
States Of the right to manage their internal rail
way system. During the course Of The debate
Mr.. Fessenden said that the Stae of Maryla1 q
ought to be ashamed Of herself for imposing a
tax on the people of other States who were
compelled to travel over railroads in order to
visit the national capital MIR. Creswell e1-
planned that this tax was paid by the citizens
of Maryland as we'll as Of other States, and that

coiving quite number OF afidavits charging
murder upon individuals, committed as fa1
back as 1861, in order that measures may be
taken to bring them to trial under the pro7is
