In numerous interviews, the President has stated
to different gentlemen, in substantially the SANE
language, his views concerning the admission q
rebel congressman In one of the minutes bcfor
me find memorandum TO this cncct:
lie repeatedly alluded to its being the prcrogativ
and constitutional duty of each House To Judge q
the merits of each claimants election by ITSELF
This also was the wise way of keeping bad men on
Of Congress- who might not through personal dis
qualification be entitled TO seats. But it was grossly
wrong to exclude States because of objections to in
dividuals. Each claimants case should rest On an,
be decided according to his invidual merits.
Representation in Congress was but one of I'll,
rights OF States under the Constitution. Exclusion
from Congress does not therefore prevent these rebc
States from enjoying and exercising other consitu
tonal rights over which Congress, in spite OF its de
NAL of their rights has no control.

Monetary Affairs.

New YORK, March 29.-The Post says
the only feature of Importance in the
market for Government securities is the
increasing demand for compound inter.
est notes in which the banks are invest
ing large part of their surplus means.
One reason for this is the fear that Gov
ernment will cease to pay interest on de-
posits, as it might long ago have been
done with great advantage to the Treas
ury. The investment OF the banks in
compound notes has tendency to pro
mote the strength of the banks, as the
compounds are legal tender for their face
and would be as available as cash in case
of a revulsion, however great the shrink
age in value Of other securities.
The failure Of Culver, Penn, q Co. has
caused the suspension of several banks
in the oil regions, bnt the suspension is

Of the spiritual interview he had had
with him.
At seven O'Clock the dying Senator ex-
pressed desire to see the light of the
Sun 10 the heavens and the Capitol on
which it shune, aud where he had so long
served the people of his State and coun-
try, and where his associates were soon
to assemble They lifted him up; his
eyes wandered dimly, and he sank back
on his pillow. The words of the 23d
Psalm were read and solemn prayer de-
livered, by one who was the dearest to
him on earth he called her to his side
