WASHINGTON, May 15.-The meeting of
the Ways and Means Committee, held this
morning, was slimly attended. Even Mr..
Hewitt, who gave notice that he would
call up his bill to-day, was absent in New
York. The Hewitt bill was talked about

turn by next Tuesday and will call his
bill up in the committee, but the chances

On the other hand the tobacco and fruit

Of the Academy Of Natural Sciences OF
this city. It was even made the subject Of
special report by Prof. II. c. Lewis TO
the Academy in December last, and
was then referred to by that gentleman
a 5 one OF the most striking evidences Of
thu existence Of pure gold in a natural
state ever found in this country. The
nugget weighs over four pounds, and con-
Eains mrCh less than l per cent. Of any
other substance. Its intrinsic value has
been estimated by Prof. Lewis at not less
than s. coo. A short time ago the famous
nugget was sent - Europe 10 be ex-
