The Department OF Agriculture at Washington
is in receipt Of hundreds of applications daily
from citizens Of the South for field and garden
seeds for general cultivation, under the i'm.
preston, doubtless, that Congress had made a
special appropriation for that purpose, which 10
not the fact. The distribution of seeds SO lib.
orally made by the Commissioner, in response to
such applications, has been, to some extent, a
departure from the strict line OF his duty-thc
law requiring the Department ito procure, prop.
agate, and distribute among the people new and
valuable seeds and plants" to be placed In the
hands Of u few carefully selected persons, who
shall test their qualities and adaptation to our
soil and climate, and report the result to the De
plrtmcnt.
The seeds now being distributed are for the
most part imported, and Of course unacclimated,
and may not he specially adapted for general
cultivation.
1t would be well, therefore, that 1t should be
more generally understood that these seeds were
selected for experimental purposes alone, and
not for general distribution; and that the mis-
crllancous demand for field and garden seeds
cannot be compiled with in future.

road companies as now provided BY law.
Sec. 2. The Secretary Of the Treasury shall
publish monthly a detailed statement of the
public debt at the close OF each month, In which
statement bonds and other obligations of the
United States shall be included, and which state
ment shall include also the amount OF 7-30 notes
oonve rtcd into $40 bonds bu. not Including the
AMOUNT Of Treasury bonds issued 10 railroad
companies. These shall be clsssed as the funded
tonal notes issued for circulation as money sh all
be CHASED as the currency debt. The Q per cent.
certificates of temporary loan shall be classed
as the temporary loan debt, and all debts that
are past due, or that will be payable within the
year, shall be included, shall be classed as the
material debt, and the interest shall cease on
| such material debt when II becomes due, and the
| same shall be payable at its presentation at the
| Treasury. such statement shall also contain the
| amount Of outstanding Treasury bonds issued
| to railroad companies md the amount OF coin
less the amount outstanding Of gold certificates,
and the amount OF currency in the Treasury OF
the United States.

The New York Commercial thinks that both
Houses of Congress are committed to impeach-
ment, and speaks thus OF the course Of the Tr-
bunc: "That Journal objected to the trial and
punishment OF Jefferson Davis, who struck at
the Union and the Government. 1t appeals this
morning to our citizens for liberal pecunisry aid
for Gen. Lee, who commanded the rebel army.
But because Of a political difference with man
who stood nobly by his country during the whole
war, the Tribune bowls for impeachment as

'attainable' at the expense OF the Government
