s.>.,s Payments-80athe Claims
COmuiiastOn.
A Tribune special dated Washington
December 8. says: Senator Sumner
intends to introduce tomorrow q new
bill to fairly return to specie payment
His plan is to issue every month ten
millions of interest bearing legal tender
notes similar to those issued in 1868
and 1864, and to cancel like amount
Of greenbacks, the process to 60 on till
all the greenbacks have been thus re-
placed. The new notes he proposes
shall bear five per cent interest and
shall be paid in coin at the end Of three
wears, or converted into five per cent
bonds. By this means Mr.. Sumner
thinks resumption could be reached
without a shock to business, or serious
disturbance Of prices. Mr.. Summers
plan has the approval Of many eminent
financiers, bankers and business men In
New England.
1t was the intention OF the Southern
Claims Commission to resume their
sessions about the latter part OF this
month, shortly after submitting their
report to Congress, but owing to the
mass Of testimony unwritten from the
shorthand notes, the evidence cannot be
got in shape up N the time Of the pro-
posed meeting in December. consequent
ly the recess of the Commission will be
prolonged until about the middle OF
January, 1872.

clamors Of the volunteers overruled
everything else, and eight were condemn.

in the chain gang, nineteen to four
years in the same gang, four to
six months imprisonment, and two
were liberated. The sentences were
Immediately executed, those murdered
not being allowed an hours respite to
zee their friends. Volunteers raided
through the streets all day, shooting
eight Cubans. Business was entirely
suspended, and quiet was only partially
restored after the execution. The
students were all quite young men
boys-but met their deaths bravely in
the presence ofimmense throngs. Their
parents offered large sums of money to
save them-the father. Of one Offering
one million dollars; but all were vain.
The Captain General. Valmaseds, was
absent at the time, but fully sanctioned
the murders on his return. The au-
thorities appear perfectly impotent in
the presence ofthe Volunteers.
