siOaers, etc., etc.
WASHINGTON, May 3.-The Mississippi
Injunction case being before the Supreme
Court to-day, Robert j. Walker made an
argument for the petitioners, denying that
Congress had the power to pass an act be-
yOnd the range of judicial inquiry, and con-
tending that the constitution provides that
such cases as this can be brought before the
court. In replying to Attorney General
Stanberry's remarks of last Friday, Mr.
Walker maintained that political questions
had not been excluded from this Court, and
in support of this position, he referred
among other and more recent casea, to the
military commission and test oath ques-
lions, upon which the Supreme Court
had pronounced lis opinions.
In conclusion, while speaking Of the de5-
perate and wholesale sweeping out of ten
States of the Union BY the reconstruction
act az directly contrary to the constitution
Of the United States, Mr.. Walker said a
broader bill of attainder in penalties could
not have been passed. 1t reduced ten mil
lions Of loyal and disloyal people to bond
age, and substituted the cleaning sword
and the bristling bayonet for constitutional
guards and the courts of law.
When Mr.. Walker finished, it was near
9 o'clock. After consultation, the court
said they would hear Attorney General
Stanberry in reply on Monday, to which
time the court adjourned.
The japanese Commissioners, accompa-
MED by Secretary Seward, arrived at the
Executive mansion this morning, short
while before the hour for the Cabinet
meeting, II o'clock, and were presented to
the President, who received them in the
private reception room. The Secretary of
the Treasury was present at the interview,
which was of that formal character usual
i'll the introduction of foreign commissions
ers or diplomatists from foreign countries
The chief commissioner, who was clad in
the official costume of his rank, upon being
introduced by the Secretary of State, made
q short address to the President, in which
he stated his happiness at meeting him,
and conveyed to him the kindly express
sions OF the Tycoon. The credentials of
the commissioners were then read in the
original and translated to the President,
who expressed the pleasure he felt at meet
ing them. The particular object of the
mission is to be conveyed to the govern
ment through the Secretary of State, with
whom the commissioners will communi-
cate at an early day.
At the close of the interview, which
lasted only about twenty-five minutes, the
commissioners were conducted through the
various public rooms of the mansion. The

THE PAYMENT o. INTEREST

The Press and Times makes this state.
ment in regard to the July interest on
the State debt
By far the greater portion OF the aecru-
ing interest is already provided for, and
there will be no difficulty in obtaining the
remainder, 80 that the State will meet all
her liabilities, and pay the interest on her
bonds promptly at the day appointed.
There will he abundant means 10 meet all
demands in July, unless the Etheridge fac
ton follow the advice of their leader, and
shoot dorm the tar collectors Ii that part
Of the Etheridge programme be carried
out, the treasury may run on hall rations
for time
We presume no one has donhied that
the July interest on the State debt would
be paid The Radical party could not
afford to permit that to 90 unpaid, with
an important State election to occur only
a month later But how has this accru-
ing interest been already provided for p
The Press and Times does not say, but
it intimates that this demand upon the
State is to BE met by means Of taxes eol~
lected and to be collected, provided the
tax collectors be not shot down by the
Conservatives. Could this latter intima.
ton have been thrown out through ignO-
rance? The act Of May 26, 1850. pro
vides as follows in section A
"That all county court clerks, tax col
lectors, and others receiving revenue, shall
make semi annual settlements with the
Comptroller, on the frat day of April and
the first of October and shall pay over the
funds in their hands on the first day of
April and October of each year, and that
they shall also make quarterly reports 10

Tennessee gentleman who loaned the
State $4,000 70 assist paying the Janu-
arg interest on the State debt, demanded
the return of his money q few days since,
aud il is a matter of common report that
this demand swept the treasury quite
bare Where then has the means to meet
the greater portion Of the accruing in
trrest come FROM Evidently not from
the ordinary sources Of revenue, since
they have been drained, and can afford
no further assistance until the lst Of
September We have shown that the
State treasury would receive no revenue
between the LIST Of April and the lst Of
September, except such as may be vol

when it made its malicious insinuation in

THE ADVANTAGES


Of these Speetacles over all others are.
LIST. The only true lens Known
being perfectly free from ehr0matic light so well
known to be the cause OF injury 20 the vision,
and which makes the change from Spectacles to
Glasses of stronger power so often required
while in many instances both near and distant
objects are seen with equal facility through the
same Glasses
I'd. Can he worn with perfect ease
for any length OF time az one sitting, giving
astonishing clearnesS OF vision. particularly by
candle or other artificial light-cOmiGrt 10 the
spectacle wearer hitherto unknown.
3d. when the eyes ache or pain
through the action of a bright light, such as is
reflected from snow. sunny weather. white
paper, and in reading, writing GrSewing. OF vivid
cOlored bodies, these lenses. by sOiiening the
rays. effect most agreeable sensation and give
great relief
Am. In all nervous affections of the
eye. causing dull and startling pains in the eye
ball or temple, appearance OF luminous and
dark spots in the atmosphere aching or feeling
like sand in the eyes. and disturbed nerves are
0uieted aud sOOthed.
9th. Ground by peculiar machinery,
got up at great cost, mathematically calculated
expressly for the manufacture of this lens. so as
to produce it with the true spherical accuracy,
and its focus is at the exact centre-a point of
vital importance. and which no other lens pos
seSSes.
eth. These SpeefacIes are scienGIG-
caiIy adjusted TO every case Of defective sight
with unerring accuracy. whether arising from
sge, disease, strain, oYerwork. OF premature
decay, by DR.. NJ. BURNHARDr, on n new ana
exact principle. entirely his own. which has sell
dom failed To be correct.
7th. Proof of superiority ever thc
old kind of Spectaeles: They are used exclu-
siVely at all the hospitals for diseases OF the eye
in Berlin. Prussia, and elsewhere.
ssh. BEING the original Inventor
and manufacturer OF the Australian Crystal
Glass for Spectacles. he therefore claims that
he has the only genuine article Of that kind in
the United States for sale.
