tne tixe.iequer uoara submitted m tne special Report of the Secretary of the Treasury and suggested i rv the annual message of the President. Mr. Davis of Kentucky, submitted a countoraeport, differing in toto with the majority, and wormly urging the establishment of a National Bank, which experience proves to be the only safe and financial agent for government & people. Mr. Kennedy, another of the Whig
members of the committee, holds himself aloof
to make a report hereafter. The two Van Buren members may also submit a report, which.
doubtless would present an argument in favor of
t lie sua- i reasury. Mr. Barnard, of N. Y. who we believe was not a member of the committee, ha3 given notice of his intention to intro
duce a substitute for the bill reported by the currency committee, which provides for an authority to the Secretary of the Treasury, without other machinery, to issue, in payment of public dues and in exchange for gold and silver, exchequer bills, of denominat ions and in a form fit to circulate as money, not exceeding fifteen millions of dollars; to be issued on a competent specie basis, say of one dollar to three; to be payable, on demand, in gold and silver, at the city of New York, the commercial centre of the
Union, and receivable in payment of all pvWk dues. Gov. Pope of Ky., has submitted sundry resolutions to the house, proposing an issue of 3 per cent, stock to the amount of one hundred millions of dollars, irredeemable for 40 years, and to be divided among the Slates in proportion to their federal population also, an issue of like stock not exceeding mil-

inquiring into the expediency of creatine a Na

These various propositions sufficiently indicate that congress will agree upon nothing that will
suitjonn ivier. lie lias told them what his gracious Majestydesires, and if they do not take that, he stands rca'.ylo defeat any thins not in
accordance with his sovereign will. Truly,wc have fallen upon thorns. Legislation is to piease

reports them, and congress, through a commit-
lee, loniiuiiy obey his behests!
l ne two reports, pro and ecu., on the Tyler fiscality, make fifteen and a half columns far
too much for publication in our columns. The
mam features of the report of the majority, are
iiius summeu up: "In common with a Bank of the 17 the Exchequer provides and secures
1. A safe and convenient agency for the cus
toiy and management of the publie funds.
- A usetul agent of exchanges and eollee

4. The regulation of the bank paper curren
of the states, by receiving it in payment of pub

Mr. Davis in his counter-report, examines the
plan in detail, and having pointed out what he
oenees to be its dangerous provisions, he con
ciuues as lollows:
"The undersigned comes to the concilium
that, in practical operation, the excheouer board
J i .
. iiioueiiea oy tne committee, would be simply a depository of the public revenue, a mere b-Treasury, with "the specie clause" scarcely excluded, asit allows the notes of specie paying banks to be paid in discharge of the public dues only when they are convertible into gold and silver at the places if Acre received. It is a sub-Treasury more expansive and more liable to abuse than the one which the American people have so signally condemned, and to therc-
peai oi which the present Evecnti to.
oi tiie secretary of the treasury, except to modify them to an extent which, it is supposed will relieve them of the objections urged a-
gainst them. These objections are
under three heads: 1st. The patronage and power which the original bill gave to the President. The committee propose to obviate this objection, as far as it is possible, for it must apply to any system which may be devised. The original bill vested the management of the ex
chequer in a "board of control," to consist of
the secretary of the treasury, and three commissioners, to bj appointed by the President. The committee limit the board to the three commissioners, and place their removal on such grounds, and so restrict the power of the President over them, as will confine it to the simple nomination, in the first instance,
of the commissioners. What these limitations and restrictions are, will be seen on reference
to the report
2d objection. Under this head the commit
tee consider the power of the board of exche
quer to sell bills of Exchange. The objection they admit to a certain extent, and they propose to obviate it by restricting the board to the selling and collecting of bills of exchange.
The collecting is to take the place of purchas
ing, and m this way no payment will be made
of the bill deposited for collection until advice
has been received that it been paid then
the proceeds are to be paid to the person entitled to receive them, after deducting the char
ges and commissions. This will secure the government against loss, gets clear of the ob
jection of its money being loaned out, and af
fords facilities for collecting bills and drafts on
distant places, which will be of advantage to the business of the country.
3Z objection. This applies to the issue of
Treasury noteson the credit of the government. The committee admit theforce of the objection,
and exclude it from the plan. The excheouer
and its agencies are therefore prohibited from
issuing any notes, except on a deposite of coin to an amount equal to that of the notes issued,
so mat tne notes m circulation snail never ex
ceed the amount of specie in the exchequer.
These notes are tedeeinable only at the place
issued, unless the board shall see cause to order
otherwise.
Having obviated the objections ured against
the plan of the secretary of the treasury, the
committee propose some other modification of
it, so as to secure its safety and usefulness,
Amond the provisions, is one limiting Uie pre
mium charged on any bills of exchange sold or
accepted to two per cent.; and another author
izes the receipt, in payment of public dues, of
the notes of banks redeemable in specie at the
place where received.
The bill has been made the special order of

of the loth inst. Anions other matters, we
find the narrative of 3-oung Coombs, who was taken in the Santa Fe Expedition, and carried to Mexico. We have room only for his account after his arrival at Mexico: Cin. Chron. "When we arrived at Mexico, we were covered with filth and vermin. We there met an order from Santa Ana,to be chanied with heavy irous. We were lodged in the Convent Santiago, about two miles from the palace; confined
in a room over the cemetery, and the aflluvia
considered i from the dead bodies beneath was offensive in
the extreme.
"Upon my arrival, I wrote to our M inister, Mr. Ellis, informing him of ray situation, and
of my being a citizen of the United States, and
stated the fact of my having gone with the expedition only as a guest of the commissioners, which circumstance was corroborated in writing, by Messrs. Cooke and Brenham, two of the
commissioners then prisoners with us.

mittee on naval affairs to build a. War Steamer
for harbor defence. It provides, that the stea
mer be mostly of iron, and ball and shell proof,
and ol the largest size, not to cost more than
the average expense for building the steamers
.Missouri and Mississippi. The bill was finally passed. Mr. Allen called up his resolution askiner for
information respecting the pending negotiations
in regard to tne steamer Caroline. After con
siderable debate, it was laid on the table by vote of 21 to 13.
Mr. Woodbury then spoke in opposition to
tne resolutions in relation to the veto power. w . . 1 ww .
in ine uouse, tne retrenchment report was
taken up, but no action had upon it.

uonoi a war steamer for harbor defence. Re
ferred to committee of the whole.
"The prisoners were upon the order of Santa
Anna, walked up and chained two and two together, and inarched to the palace, at midnight. When they arrived there, the Dictator was asleep; the prisoneis was kept in the public square for some time, for the gratification of the rabble, ond then marched back, not one daring to disturb the slumbers of the Tyrant. I was not then put in chains in consequence of my illness. Those prisoners who were able to do so, were subsequently made to work upon the streets of the capital. "About three weeks after we reached Mexico, two of the prisoners made their escape. This incensed Santa Anna to such a degree, that he ordered the whole of us, the lame and the sick included, to be chained and made to
work with the rest. was myself taken out of
bed and chained with a heavy log chain around my ancles.and made to work in the streets. This
too, after I had beeu demanded as a citizen of
the United States by our minister, Mr. Ellis; I
was kept in chains about two weeks, and ill as
was, compelled to sleep and work in them,
having thereby nearly lost my hearing, when
I was sent for by Santa Anna.
Before my release, I gathered from the Sec
retary of Legation, that Mr. Ellis had called several times upon Santa Anna, but was refused an audience. To my inquiry if this was the
manner in which the representative of the U. S. allowed himself to be treated, he answered
that there was no help for it. Mr. Ellis subsequently addressed a note to Santa Anna, but
what effect it had I know not; it can be imagin
ed from the refusal of an audience, upon three
several occasions. Whilst I was in prison I
never saw Mr. Ellis, nor received a word in re
ply to my letters to him. The Secretary gave as an excuse for this negligence, as I deemed
it, that it was not becoming a Minister to corres
pond with a prisoner.
"After my release, Mr. Ellis treated me with
attention and politeness, and I have to thank
him for the loan of money to bring me home.
V mist m prison, the foreigners sent me clothing and some other necessaries, and Mr. Lumsdeu loaned me some money. Mr. Black sent
me bedding.
"Amongst the persons who accompanied the
expedition, was Mr. Faulkner, a British subject
who joined it with Mr. Kendall and myself,un-
der the same circumstances, except that he
had no passport which Mk. Kendall had pro
cured BEFORE HE LEFT New ORLEANS, FROM
the Mexican Consulate here. Mr. Packen-
ham, the British Minister, informed me that
Mr. Faulkner would be demanded the moment he reached the city, at whatever hour of the day or night the event would take place. - I de
livered the package to the British Consul of
this city, Mr. Crawford, in which there was
note from Mr. Packenham, stating that orders
had already been obtained for Mr. Faulkner's immediate release although he had not reached
the city of Mexico at the date of the note.
"The remainder of the expidilion under Gen
McLeod, was expected to arrive in Mexico in two days after I left the city. I heard that they had suffered very much from bad weather ill treatment, &c. and that to sum up their troubles, the small-pox had broken out amongst
them, and it was reported that about fifty had
already perished, or were left on the road, ov
mg to its ravages and the cruelty of their cap
tors."
"I have omitted to state, in its proper place.
that on my release, the Dictator ordered his
state coach to convey me, in my rags to look
at the city, and thence in company with Gen
Barragan, to the office of Mr. Ellis. Several of
the Mexican higher officers in the city, espe
cially Barrngan, expressed sympathy for me,
ana ireaied me Kindly."

MRS. GAINES' CASE. The supreme court
nave oeen occupied for the last two days in hearing the great case of Mr. Gaines aeainst
the executors of the will of Daniel Clark, of
new Orleans, and those holding portions of the property by purchase from them. The amount
involved in the decision is between $30,000,000 and $40,000,000. The case is without a parallel, not only for the amount of property involv
ed, dui tor tne wonderful character of the inci
dents, even as admitted by the vastly wealthy possessors of the estate.and for the very impor
tant questions raised against the jurisdiction of
tne supreme court of the United States, as well as for the history and position of the parties concerned especially that of the heroic and much-abused lady; who now comes before the highest tribunal of the nation to exhibit her matchless wrongs, and t secure beyond appeal her rights to her patrimony. Her counsel are Messrs. Key, Walter Jones, and Crittenden. Mr. Key commenced to-day, and made a powerful exhibition of the enormities practised by the executors and their accomplices in the destruction of the last will of Mr. Clark. It is a perfect romance of real life. He closes to-morrow, and will be followed by Gen. Jones. Messrs. Brent (father and son) have preceded with a very able and iugenious argument for the present possessors. The hearing of the case will occupy about two days longer. The decision will not probably be given for 2 weeks. A narrative of it will be very interesting.
