As the provisions of the Army bill, ‘passed the last day of the session, affects more persons than almost any other, the following account will interest the public:— ‘The Treasury Department Not Managed to Their Satisfaction. ‘Changes im the Cubam Customs Regulations. offering a substitute bill. Twenty-three sections of this PROVISIONS OF THE MEW ARMY BILL, | dur wore taken almost contirely from that passed by the Senate; but he added to ft « ac, ae. &e. Great many eccentricities of his own, for which he deserves full credit. After being debated in the House for tweive days, section after section, this Dill ‘was rejected by nearly three to one. The next day the House allowed the bill to be recommitted to the Military Committee, with the understanding that the Senate bill ‘would be reported. It was not, however, 80 reported, Dut Mr. Schenok offered a second bill, slightly different from the one rejected, and after a short debate it was passed. It was sent to the Senate, and was amended by striking out all after the first word, and substituting @ bill prepared by Mr. Wilson, substantially the same as that originally proposed. This bill was passed by the Senate and sent to the House, The Honse re- fused to concur in the amendment, and a day or two before the close of the session asked for a conference committee. This committee had three meetings, lasting altogether about six hours. Mr. Schenck refused to concur with the Senate conferees, stating that the House would not sustain himinit. In this there was a large number of Veteran Reserve regiments provided for. His bill provided for ten, and the Senate were willing to give five, which Mr. Schenck refused to accept, and the committee was discharged. On re- ing to the House that the committee had disagreed ir. Scheuck asked leave to bring in a second bill, which he said contained all that the Senate conference desired, This request was not agreed to, and a further committee on conference was ordered, consisting of Messrs. Farnworth, Nelson, Taylor’ and Woodbridge. The Conference’ Committee met, and the Senate bill was accepted with very slight amendments, pro- viding for four regiments of Veteran Reserve corps, which was two leas than Mr. Sebenck was willing to accept as his ultimatum. The committee re- ported to both houses; and in the House, although so much difficulty had been prophesied by Mr. Schenck, the report was accepted with hardly a dissenting voice, and the bill became a law. It meets the approbation of the army, and is regarded as almost perfect. It recog nizes Cally the claims of the volunteer officers and sol- diers by giving them all the vacancios of first and second Iteutenants, and two thirds of the grade above that in the cavalry and half in the infantry regi- ments, It reorganizes all the staff departments and increases some of them slightly. It abolishes sutlers, the law to take effect on the lst of July, 1367, and ala> abolishes the Provost Marshal General's office at such time, not exceeding thirty days, as the Secretary of War may’ determine. ‘army a3 it now stands will con- sist of tem regiments of cavalry, two of them colored; five regiments of artiliy and forty five regiments of infantry, four of them colored, and four ran reserves, the latter to be officered by officers of the regular army or volunteers wounded in the discharge of duty and still fit for garrison service. Mr. Wilson is receiving the con- gratulation amd thanks of all connected with the army and the military departments, ‘THE SOLDIERS’ BOUNTY BILL.

' A delegation of New Yorkers, claiming to represent @ommercial interests of that city, being mostly ‘and brokers of radical tendencies, and opposed the policy of the government as well as the adminis- of <ecretary McCulloch, arrived here this evening ‘view to securing the removal of the Secretary of ‘Treasury, or to make such statements of the mis- Wasaagement of the affairs of the department as to secure @ reform in its conduct.

The arrival this mocning in this city of Charles ©'Conor direct from a protracted interview with his fileat, Jeff Davis, at Fortress Monroe, gives rise to many Yamors and much speculation. Undoubtedly his trip to Tortreas Monroe and here Is in connection with the report of the House Judiciary Committee, and well informed authorities state that, the committee having failed to Ampiicate Mr. Davis in the assassination conspiracy, an effort will now be made to secure his release oa parole, bis alleged crime being reduced to the single one under which so many others 4» Uke manner implicated have all been released on perole, It has beon positively ascertained that Mr. O'Conor, whatever Lis business may be, is prosecuting # at the War Dopartmont rather than at the Attorney Goneral’s. ‘The New Internal Revenue Law. The new Internal Revenue law differs from the old one @oncerning brokers’ sales of stocks and bonds, which andor the latter were auseassed on the basis of par value, wut under the former, from August 1, the stamp must ‘be aMxed upon the basis of the amount of sales. The Commiasionor of Internal Revenue bas had occasion ‘to call attention to the fact that the new law makes the ‘word “money” to include checks, drafts and other in- @ruments of writing given forthe payment of money, ‘and therefore the rece! pts for checks, dratts, &e., aro to (be stamped as Uf given for money. 3 i HH +f H Be aE qi ihe E 2 H z imterior of the Capi! larly changed brought | fet few montha.
