Where the Money Goe~

Those interested in knowles where the
money goes should read carea.hy the follow

at Washington, last Tbdrsday
Mr. Washburne OF Illinois asked leave to

when The resolution was

Mr. Washburne read a letter just laid on
his table, from the Postmaster General,
stating that the indefinite delay in the pay
ment for the service by Wells, Fargo & Co.
would work to the detriment of the postal
service, and that he had determined to re-
woke the order suspending the payment for
mail service for the quarter just ended. Mr.
Washburne denounced the conduct OF the
Postmaster General as such as should subject
him to impeachment.
Mr. Farnsworth of Illinois repeated that
he did not believe in the right of the House
of Representatives to Interfere with the per

result in a cessation of the running of stages
