The work has been commenced, and he could not doubt the intention of Con- gress to complete it—$100.000 haye already been ex- pended. Mr, Woopwanp, (dem.) of 8. would like to know when the special committee appointed to examine the foundation walls, would make their report. and what the report is likely to be. The question whether there sball be an appropriation at all, or what the umount shall be. would be affected by the report. Mr. McNair, (dem.) of Pa., replied that the report would be made next week. The investigation is going on regularly, and the committee, on amination, found th» walls in a dreadful condition, which astonished all 0% them.
