From the Nat. Intelligencer of the 4th inst.

The business which principally occupied the Senate yesterday, during its private sitting, was, it is understood, the consideration of a great number of nominations of Revenue Officers, whose commissions have, or soon will have expired—of whom, some thirty or forty were confirmed.

Among the interesting subjects yesterday presented for consideration, in the House of Representatives, was a proposition, from the Judiciary Committee, for the establishment of a uniform system of bankruptcy. It is an abstract proposition, intended to try the sense of the House on the principle of this measure; and it has been committed for serious deliberation. The introduction of it makes it certain that the subject will be discussed at the present Session. A bill has been at length reported for the adjustment on principles of equity, of the claims of Massachusetts for money paid by her for services rendered by her Militia during the late War; and a bill has also been reported for the relief of the Officers of the Revolutionary Army.
