His offer was, as a matter of course, indiguantty declined, and the fellow left town.

THR PRRETDENT'S REVORT READY. Cotonel Roberts’ report will be submitted to the Con- gress to-morrow morning.

The President gives a detailed account of the reasons which led to the Gothronement of O'Mahoney, the breaking up of Yoffat Mansion, and the expulmon and disgrace of Barney Doran Kilian & Co, ‘The President reviewed at length the facis connected with the recent movement on rociing Oe whole traneaction and leaving the Snal action relative theroto to the Congress. He recommends that the thauks of Congress be ten- dered to General Nie! and his officers and men, for their gatientry and herotem on Canadian soil, and that a suitable monuinent be erected in memory of the soldiers of tho Trieh republic who lost. their tives in defence of Troland at Fort Mrie and Limestone Ridge. The mona- ment is to be sutably inserihed. Congress iz arged to inquire into the various branches of the organisaiio, aad take decisive action relative thereto. ‘The President stronzly condemns the action of the American government in putting forth unnecessary, il- Joyal and unjust eflorte to crush the movement. Burmony and good feeling in. the doliberations of the Cougres® ig recommended, and the atmost faith in the final truzaph of the canse is expressed.

Mr, Chase said he would give no more; that 1c. was all the law compelled pay. This resalted ina noisy altercation between the citizen and conductor, during which the latter canght the former by the shirt collar and attempted to eject him from the cay.
