WHILE the suppression OF the abuses con-
tingent upon the iranking privilege Is univcr-
sally commended, there is 'rong feeling In
the House In favor OF the establishment of q
modified system which will enable the proper
distribution Of official documents without In
fringcmcnt upon the salary of the member.
Tho enactment Of law having this object In
view Is urgently advocated now that the salary
of Congressman is about to decline to the old
standard, and that, too, without tho perqui-
sites hitherto received. The Committee on
Post Offices and Post Roads held a meeting
yesterday, when the various propositions in.
tended to accomplish this end were formally
discussed, aud the entire matter ultimately
committed to Mcssrs. Packer, Page, AMI
Randall for examination.

REPRESENTATIVE BECK seems TO have a
very bad memory. In the House yesterday he
inquired what had become of the grand navy
We had in 1850. Only twelve years ago por-
tion of II was burned by his political iricn'L in
the Norfolk navy yari, AMI sumter and Moui-

THE solution Of the financial problem, and
tho discovery OF the panacea for the ills now
suffered, seems TO assume a difficult phase,
which Is greatly augmented by the Disagree
ment Of the doctors having tho patient In
charge. At tho conference OF the members Of
the Senate Finance Committee yesterday
morning Il was asccrtaIncd that unity OF
thought was impossible without transforma-
tion Of mind, and that each member had a
remedy which, In personal judgment, only
needed trial to substantiatc It's virtue. Ef.
fectually blocked In the effort to agree, d happy
method whereby the difficulty couldbc avoided,
II not overcome, was sought and II was In this
way resolved "thst II Is the duty OF Congress
during Its present session to adopt definite
measures 10 redeem the pledge made In the
act Of March Is, 1851" and then the solution
Of the plan whereby this could be accomplished
was also dcvolyed upon the present body.
The day was prolific In financial schemes,
several senators bringing forward bills en-
bodying their views. The most important was
that of Senator Ferry, OF Michigan, authorin.
ing the permanent issue Of the forty -four mil
lion reserve fund. These hills were all re.
fcrrcd to the Committee on Finance, mean
while to await the diet alton Of the scnaic, as

Speaking of the virtues of oatmeal
the Edinburgh Medical Journal says
that in its raw state, when 1t is mix
up with water, it is becoming a favor
ite dish. The brose of "Auld, Scot.
land is becoming q favorite dish-and
we are glad to note this, because we
believe it to be a healthy and muscle
forming commOdity-by the hunters
and trappers of the West, who are
substituting oatmeal in this form fol
pafched indian corn. The same
brawny fellows-whose powers of en-
durance are proverbial, whose scOrn
of fatigue is known to all readers ot
travel and natural histOry-haye
found out that a very acceptable drink
is made by putting two teaspoOnsful
of oatmeal to g tumbler Of water.
This they-the hunters and trappers-
aver to be the best drink they can use,
as it is at once nourishing, unstimula-
ting and satisfying.
This drink, we are assured, is rapid
