The Cutting Resolution.

WASHINGTON, August "a member OF
the Foreign Affairs Committee holding
close relations with the Administration,
stated tonight that the adoption Of the
Cutting resolutions, should they pass the
House tomorrow, would imply much
more than seemed TO be gem
orally supposed. In the first place
Mexico has been asked TO release this man
Cutting Mexico has refused and has
given reasons. These resolutions make
those reasons insufficient and request the
President to renew the demand. Should
this renewed demand be refused, our Min
ister will be at once withdrawn and then,
in all probability, an extra session of Con-
greSs would have to be called.
Mr.. Belmont, the chairman of the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs, is working
most earnestly for the release of Mr.. Cut
ting.
The cabinet was in session about three
hours to-day arranging the affairs Of the
department in anticipation of the speedy
adjournment of Congress. The Cutting

hereby amended, by adding thereto at the
end Of said sentence the following words:
"And to make suitable provision for such
Confederate soldiers as may have been per-
manently injured in such service. so
that said sentence, when so amended, shall

who lost limb or limbs in the military
service of the Confederate States with suit
able provision for such Confederate SOL
diers as may have been permanently inJur-
ed in such service"

paid. From start To finish the
march was triumph. Eastern delegates
seemed especially marked as objects of at
tentiOn, and all along the line when an
Eastern banner was diScerned, hearty and
prolonged cheers WAS the response. New

ored ih being not only heartily cheered,
hut reverently saluted The veteran
ZouayeS of Elizabeth created a
genuine sensation, and were also Justify
cheered. The LOuaNeS have been present
ed with handsome silk banner by the
Veteran guard. Ii was remarked that

than did those from Northern States,
due To the feeling of sympathy
that difficulties they had to encounter dur
