members of Congress to insure a
quorum in July. So short Summer
session Is fixed fact.
New YORK, June 4.-Jeff.
Thompson has written letter endors-
ing the sentiments of General Long
street concerning Reconstruction.
General Longstreet says he did not
intend to ally himself with the radi-
cal party, but only gave what he
thought was the best advice to his
Southern brethren, in his recent letter.
A number of the letters received
from Republican members. state that
they,wilf come ION condition that othe
session will not last over two or three
weeks at the farthest. They do not
wish TO proceed with the regular
business of Congress, but merely fix
definitely the reconstruction act, SO
that President johnson and Mr..
Stanberry. will be prevented hereafter
from giving any more trouble and
hindering reconstruction. 1t is evil
dent, also, Jrn the tone of the other
letters received, that an attempt will
be made to have Speaker Colfax an
nounce the committees Immediately,
so asto be able to go right work.
Th plan is favored by those anxious
to impeach the President, and by
others who are oppesedsto Secretary
McCulIoch' ,present, financial policy,
and especially in respect to the pre-
sent system of National Banks. Those
who are in favor ofa long session, say
thatif once a quorum is obtained, the
session will be kept long enough to
settle definitely the question of i'm
parchment. nn sisaai ssea@* -

TIM DELAWARE RAn.RoAD.-The repor. Of the
T. W. ~ B. Road shows an item OF -3l,Go'.a5
loss in operating the Delaware Railroad. This, it
must be understood, is not by any means an cx-
Of that amount Of expenses over receipts dur
Ing the year 1866 The road is leased by the r.
w. Il b. r. r., upon guarantee to the Stock
holders Of six per cent. upon lis cost. This
amount Of net profit it failed to pay last year by
the amount named, but as feeder to the main
line ii doubtless much more than made up the de-
ficeney.
