Postscript. The Mails of last night and this morning furnish Washington dates to Thursday (the 5th) and N York of yesterday, the New York American dated to day We find nothing under these very recent dates to add to the other news of the week except what will be found below from Congress. Correspondence of the Journal of Commerce Washington, June 7th. The Senate. to day. passed to a third reading the Bill from the House for the suppression and prevention of Indian Hostilities, and for granting some additional indemnity to the Cherokees The proposition of Mr Morris for the adjournment of Congress on the 2d July. was laid on the table - The Senate appeared to be in-lined to wait for a while and see what the House will do with the Sub Treasury Scheme It is remarkable that. in relation to that measure. there should be any doubt at this day. Time was when the sense of the People and of Congress had been over and over again declared against any measure. it was considered as defunct But it is not so now. It may be expected to buy over a few members and to drive back into the fold of the party some others But, certain it is that the friends of the measure now begin to enter their hopes of its success, and its opponents are beginning, as is usual among some of our Whigs to give in But, I have examined the closest calculations that have been made on this subject and the result is that, if the Whigs keep their senses and their seats, they will defeat the measure. Supposing all the eight doubtful men to go for the bill, there will still be majority of one against it! Of this there is no doubt The Pre emption Land Bill. from the Senate, was considered in the committee of the whole of the House of Representatives to day. and it was reported to the House. As soon as this bill is disposed of, Mr Cambreleng will call up the Sub-Treasury bill From the National Intelligencer Senate-The resolution that Congress adjourn on the 2d of July to the second Monday in November next, was laid on the table The New Treasury Circular. Mr Webster's resolution, offered yesterday, calling on the Secretary of the Treasury, for a copy of such order as he might have recently issued. in regard to receiving bank notes, coming up for consideration. Mr Webster said a Treasury order had been published, which it was proper should be officially communicated to the Senate. When speaking on the joint resolution which lately passed, (said Mr W) I observed that some further legal provision would be necessary. if the resolution should pass This expectation is quite confirmed by the new circular. As to some of the conditions, or limitations, stated by the Secretary, it is true that they are imposed by existing statutes, and must be regarded: such as that the bills of no banks should be received, which bank. since June, 1836, has issued, or paid out, bills less than five dollars As all the banks in some of the States. and nearly all in others, are in this predicament, it is necessary, undoubtedly. that some act of legislation should be passed. in order to make the recent resolution of any practical effect in those States. It is proper, however, that the paper should be officially before us. as undoubtedly some further legislation will be necessary : and I shall myself propose some measure on the subject at an early day The resolution was adopted without dissent.
