WASHINGTON, June 22.

The Committee of Investigation appointed by the House of Representatives, on the Memorial of Mr. Edwards, terminated its Session yesterday. The Report of the Committee was immediately laid before the President and we have not been able to obtain a perusal of it.— We understand generally, however, that nothing is retracted of the former report of the Committee, and that it is further distinctly and unanimously declared by the Committee, that they have discovered, in the course of their Investigation, nothing to impeach the integrity of the Secretary of the Treasury, or to induce them to believe, that he has not ably and correctly administered the affairs of the Treasury.

We expect to be able to obtain a copy of the Report, for publication in our next.

Nat. Intel.
