We haTeelreadyreportedth© applloation
or Baaiil lUtoheU, Crier bf the District
Court, fern mandamus to ooznpei the Count/
Commissioners to Issue a warrant for the
eaoi&t of bii-ulujt • The' Conshiloßtii
aaswcredthat they had no nnappropriated
fuds la the treasury, and Judge WUttims
- decided that, under the answer of the respon
dents, he oouldnot grant the prayer of the
petitioner, aa it would be. nieiett to compel
them to in bo a warrant vponian empty treas
ury. Tho Court remarked, however, that if
the petitioner wai able to show that there
were unappropriated funds In the treasury,
an alternative mandamus would he awarded.
The petitioner did so set forth, and'ihe Court
granted an altenativa writ, returnable on tho
first Mendayia March. :
Zn response to the writ, the Commiision
ers yesterday lied their answer, through their
attemert 'B; B. Carnahan,Kiq., setting forth*
the reasons why- a peremptory mandamus
should not issue. They answer: Ist. That
there are ffb wiajspropriattd fundi ini the
treasury. AU tho sands In the treasury on
the 26th ■ of July, 1862, endj all that should
eome\in “ next after that date, to the
ament iof $127,i56 40 .were appropiated
by mandatory writs .of. the. Circuit Court.
2d* That warrant* to various persons, to the
above aggregate, have been Issued, and pay
ment demanded of the-treasurer, whlsh was
refused; I that respondents are advised that the
above feoti constitute an appropriation of all
tho moseys coming into the treasury until J
said warrants are paid.; 4. When the relator
presented his petition in this ease, there were I
neither appropriated nor unappropriated funds |
in the treasuryboonglng to the county, but!
theoousty wee in debt to tho treasurer. Oa '
the 9thef ffobruUry, 1885, the date of tho lest |
monthly statement furnished to the Controller ;
by the Treasurer, there wore less then $l6O
of county funds In the treasury—respondents
not bring advised of- tho amount received
sinoethatdaU.
The above aniwerwas died in the Prothon
otary's office, and nb action] upon it has boon
taken by the Court.!
In the - meantime Jw*. learn that Ur.- Lam
bert, this County Controller; has gene east, to
eonfer with the bondholders relative to a'eom
promiseupon the. toms recommended by their
attorneys*-Mr.Xakbert feels confident that
the compromise will be aooepted, and if so it
will at onoe unlook [the treasury, and put the
fiaeacUl machinery of the county again in
operation. It wiUplneh the people to pay the
tM- under the compromise, out they will be
willing,ta submit to the hardship in ordor to
get rid of this most aaneyingand perplexing
railroad debt. -

Major General Hltohcook was before the
Military Committoe to-day oxplainlng the
bill just introduced, embodying the labors of
the Commission to revise the army regulations
and articles of war, of whloh he was Presi
dent. All aro favorable to it, but Uis ex
ceedingly difficult to get it through now.
Persons in somo parts of the oountry who
have failed to understand fully the operations
of tho olauao ini the OonsorlptloQ bill fixing
the price of substitutes at three hundred dol
lars aro making some clamor against it,
though it is beliovod that whou It oornes to be
, fully understood they will leave the secession
sympathisers to havo the monoply of fault
finding with the bill.
Mr. Arnold, to-day, gave sotioo of his In
tention to introduce a bill repealing this sub
stitute feature, and will seek an opportunity
to offer it as an amendment to some of the
military bills now pondiag. Thecbanoes of
enccess aro very fow.
The Ways and Means Committee have
agreed to a reduction of duty on printing
paper from 39 to 20 per cent.
The bill for two additional Coart cf Claim
Judges, which passed the House to-day, will
probably pass the Seuato to-night. Mr.
Bingham, of Ohio, is almost certain to be
offered one of these Judgeships. For the
other, Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois, and a host of
others, are candidates.
~Aq extra session of the Senato has been
called by the President in a proclamation is
sued this morning.
Tbe Secretary of tho Treasury has dcolied

postage curronoy in consequence of the nu
merous counterfeits.
The bill indemnifying the President for ar
bitrary arrests was postponed in the Senate
till this evening, to give Rlohardson, Bayard
and others, an opportunity to debate it.
Trumbull forced them to give an Intimation
that they wouldn't fillibuster before he agreed
to tbe postponement* ! The House was fill!-
bustcring all afternoon on the bill for reorga
nising tho Judiciary of this district.
The Republicans try-to press a vote and tbe
Democrats declare they will filibuster till
the end of the session before they will permit
it to pass. About the only significance the
bill has is that it will tura Mr. Wickliffe's
son-in- law, a notorious secession sympathi
ser out cf a fat Federal office.
The following ore' the provisions of * bill
to'modify the existing lews Imposing duties
on Imports, and for other purposes, to be re
ported to the Home from the Committee on
Ways and Meant to-night or to-morrow :
Section first allows goods in bond over one
year and less than three be withdrawn for
consumption upon tho payment of duties im
posed by the tariff of July 14th, 1862.
Section second allows cotton and raw silk,
of the growth or prodoets .of plaoes beyond the
Cape of Good Hope, when imported from
places this side the Cape of Good Hope, to be
exempt from the ten per cent, additional duty
now imposed.
Beotian third allows the exemption of gaan<
for two years longer.
Section fourth aliowj the exemption of
ships and vessels from anything more than
an annual tonnage doty to and from ports in
Central America.
Section fifth redness the doty on printing
paper to 20 per cent*
, Section sixth fixes erode petroUoin or erode
oil at 20 por oent.
Station seventh allows gunpowder to be ex
empt, and allows a drawback on saltpetre used
in the manufacture of gunpowder, when ex*
ported.
The Court of Claims bill, *• passed to-day,
confers the powor of float judgment on the.
court to which, two Judges are >o be added.
Appeals are to Uo to the Supreme Court In cases
Involving more than three thousand dollar*,
; and by the Oovernment also'where the judg
ment will effect a class of eases, yfo money
can be paid out of the Treasury in pursuance
of the judgment until an appropriation has
boon made by Congress, y
Among the amend meats,to th# act amenda
tory of the tax law adopted by the Sonata to
nignt, is one making the licences of all retail
dealers in liquors twenty instead ef ten dol
lars, and another striking out the section pro
viding for .the 7 -appointment«f an Assistant
Solicitor of the Treasury.
- The Hoaie to-day refused Holman's dema
gogue proposition to ratio the pay of tho sol
diers dollars a month.
- 'The gallorks of both Hoosei are erowded
to-night, although tho proceedings are com
! parativeiy uninteresting. A large number of
private Indian and Kansas bills have been
passed without consideration.
The Senate ,ti engaged on the internal tax
law* The new indemnity bill was \orowded
out by other bills this evening, snd mey not
be brought up until towards morning, when
there Is a reasonable chance that the copper
heads will have gone home.
The appropriation for the Military Acade

matic, Post Offioe, 4rmy deficiency, and for
tification bills whloh had been pesiod by Con
gress and approved by the President, ajmount

the Fourteenth Alabama, Majpr Malone. A
pert of their force dismounted,"and took their
position by a lodge of rocks, and fought
barely for about twenty minutes.
Col. Feramore bed to skilfully disposed of
-his forces that. after the fight bed continued
for somo time in front, he could assail them
upon both flanks. 'Wbeathefiankenealußpa
char go was ordered, and ourmen rushed upon
tbe rebels with drawn sabres and utterly dis

The Select Committee, of whioh Represent
ative Sheffield Is Chairmen, on the charges
ln pamphlet form, by R. Belts'
against Mr. Holloway, Com miss toner of Pa
tents, say In their report that they werelur
priicd to a praotioe £as grown up
in the bureau of reporting to Congress the
reoslpts and disbursements only, leaving
that body Ignorant of the outstanding liabili
ties* Another‘ embarrassment, lathe way of
the Committee, 1 : was the falsity of Mr. Hollo*;
way's responseito the resolution ofitho House/
passed Janaary, 1862, lb whioh the expendi
tures were stated at $15,000, when, as added
op, they amount to $46,646. Mr. Holloway
expiates this b» attributing the dlioropanoy
to the olorks who furnished the data. As to
tho expenses of the temporary olerxs, the
Committee sey'they are about ths-avsrage of
the past five jean, although this business
has now fallen off nearly fifty per eentua*
The practice of the Bureau of tefclng the
original papers on file to go out Into the
hands of temporary olerks, meets* with the
Committee's ©ensure.
They find sustained the oharge that the
Commissioner bad recommended ten payment
of tho eleim ofHenry T. Davis, to the amount
of $6,720, after, it had twice or oftener been re
jected by his ptedecciion in ofjteej They are:
not satisfied with his explanations
They further say ho has unlawfully reduoed
salaries. Therc was not sufioient proof to
snstelu the. other charges which wore of a
minor character.
The Committee concluded by reminding the'
House of the Relative importanceof the
tent office in oonneotlon with Industrial in-
Uresis, and say Ur administration requires
the highest queUffeettopi of intellig«noe,'buil-'
ness habits and Industry. ' i
The Committee found that the Commission
er employed ai olerks, two ladlesJwboie hus
basds are In the South, and that he linow
paying half salary to One of th«m though she
