Croeine Ur Por Avsev SNMENT.—It is gen- erally conceded that Congress will adjourn 01 Tuesday at 12 o'clock, it b-ing the extrem. limit which can be fixed for Moutay's session To acecmpiish this the Senate will have to work both night aud day. The Hou-e is far in ad vence with business. and there is nething in the way to prevent this branch of Coc fron being ready to close up, provided the Sanat: take action on the sevcral appropriation bills now before it, Itis probable both Hous-s will continue their sessions throu zh to-morrow. A DELEGATION of prominent citizens of Washington, representing both political par- ties, waited on the Preeident to-day and pre- sented @ numerously signed petition of the business men and property-owners of the Dis- trict requesting the President to appoint Mr. Williem H. Clagett one of the three commis. sioners for the government of the District, as provided in the bil! recently passed by Con- rese. As the bill has uot yet reached the resident, he, of course, could not assure the committee as to what his action would be with regard to their petitio: Nominations.—Tho President sent the fol- lowing vominations to the Sena‘ to-day :— Bleeford Wilson, Solicitor of the Treasury, vice Banfield, resigned; John M.

The Monongahela was then at Rio. and the Wasp at Montevideo. The health of the equadron continues good. The Mononga- hela had recently returned frum a visit to Ca Frio harbor, where the crew were exercised in various duties.

Judging trom ‘be transactions In other bonds, there are good grourds, in my opinion, for the appretension that borts hearing this rate of interest, when isened, will be worth much less than their eqat- valent in the current, money of the United States. This appears to me to be unjast tothose to whom these bonds are to be paid, and to the extent of the difference between their face and real value, looks like repudiating the debts of the District. My opinion is that to require cre- ditors of the District of Columbia to receive these bonds at per, when it is apparent that to be converted into money they must be fold at a large discount, will not only Piove greatly injurious to the credit of the Dis- fue will reflect unfavorably upon the Iriet, credit und good faith of the United States [ won'd recommend, therefore, that pro valid claims against the District of Colambia.
