In Congress, business begins to move on, beginning

its mention in the cratich which is most easily put in

motion, and whose motion, moreover, is most to be re-

, lied upon. Alter a very spirited debate, occupying some hours of yesterday and the day before, a bill has passed the Senate for postponing indefinitely the fur

ther execution ol the doposite bill; and, if thai bill passes also the House of Representatives, the States will bi fairly choused out of one-fourth of what Congress held out to them, and what they agreed to receive when offered. What its fate will Le in that body is by no means as certain as what its (ate has been in' the other. .After thus disposing of the repealing bill yesterday, the Senate proceeded to the consideration of the Treasury Note bill, and will resume it to-day, not having adjourned over to Monday, as the Senate most usually d es ai the regular sessions cfCongress. Tli'e House of Representatives does not sit to-day. National Intelligencer. "I low do you sell those fowl!'
