THE cOnEicss at Sing sisg, N. VI
made several desperate attacks on their
keepers, on the 18th inst Five Of
them gagged Thomas Forrest and af-
terwards gagged Edwin Crah. They
then made their escape, but two of
them were subsequently, captured at
Tarrytown. Craft when discovered
was dead, having been strangled by the
gag. Another gang attacked the guard
at the middle dock, oyercame him, OBJ
tanned arms from the guard house,
boarded the slOop Exchange, and at
tempted to drive her crew ashore, but
we're afterwards subdued by a brisk fire
Of musketry from the guards. Seven
of the copvicts were wounded-One
fatally.

OFFICIAL VISIT

The House Committee of Ways and Means,
headed BY their chairman, Gen. Scheuck,
Friday, paid an official visit TO the President
and Secretary Boutwell,, as is customary after
the organization of the Committee. They
also called upon Commissioner Delauo.-
They had long conversation with Secretary
Boutwell, relative 10 financial matters, during
which the Secretary declared that it was his
Intention 10 sell gold publicly, and never at
private sale; and also that it was his opinion
that he had the power to invest surplus gold
in bonds and he thought he would do so.--
The Secretary further informed the Com
mittee that the receipts from customs were
increasing.

The 10 Representatives whoVoted against
the repeal of the Penure-Of-oilice act, the
other day when it PASSED the House by Il3
ayes, deserve to be chronicled for their cour-

Ferris, HOtehkiss, JenRkes, LsWrence of
Ohio, Maynard, Scheuck, Smith of Vermont,
Stokes, Tsffe, Tillman. Ward, Whittemore
and Willard. 1t is very desirable that we
have power in Government somewhere, ade-
quate to, and available for, the squelching of
the corrupt Revenue officials and those who
have purchased their indulgences; and it has
seemed as if no other was at present so prac-
ticable and efficient as an unrestricted Presi-
dent possessed Of az earnest disposition to
use his power for the purpose. For this
reason have favored the untrammeling of

Thursday, there we're received and open
ed, some fifty cases of marble and bronze
statues and statuettes, and other articles Of
virtG, intended for the inside adornment of
the Executive Mansion. They were procur-
ed through the sgency Of the house of Browne
and Spaulding Of N. Y, under the super
vision of Gen. Michler, who has charge Of
the Public Buildings and Public Grounds;
and they were inspected by members of the
local press, and duly praised. After all that,
the President saw them, wasn't pleased with
them, and ordered them sent back. The
President is on his old war path; he never
surrendets. If he has never seen much Of
art he knows what do not please him; no
matter whomsOever else they do please.
