On motion of Mr. McKay, the House resolved itself into Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, (Mr. ‘Thompson, Mississippi, in the Chair,) and pro- ceeded to the consideration of the bill making appropria- tions for the service of the Post Office Department, for the year ending 30th June, 1847.

Mr MeKay remarked that this proviso was altogether unnecessary, The question was taken, and it was rejected ; and The amendment for the mail steamers was agreed to. Mr. Comm moved to strike out the proviso in the second section of the bill, which is in the following words, viz : ‘That in case the revenues of the department, referred to | in the first section of this act, shall prove insufficient to | meet the foregoing appropriations then any deficiency | that may thus arise shall be paid out of any moneys in the treasury not otherwise appropriated : P ded, That nothing herein contained shal Poe construed to authorise Fay bayment to supply a deficiency in the appropriation for compensation of postmasters, | A debate ensued, at the termination of which .
