Passage by the Senate of the Deficiency Appropriation Bill. WASHINGTON, March 25, 1871. Interview of the Democratic Governor of Alabama with the President. Among the visitors to the Executive Mansion to- day was Governor Lindsay, the democratic Governor of Alabama, who called to pay his respects to the President. The interview was very satisfactory and courteous, Governor Lindsay assuring the President that his State was thoroughly peaceable, except the usual crimes that pervade everywhere. He also declared his ability to repress and check all outrages without appealing to the President for protection, and declared his intention to maintain the laws at all nazards. He further assured the President that, should occasion require, he would not hesitate to cail upon the fede- ral authorities for assistance, The President ex- pressed his satisfaction at these assurances. Both parties appeared pleased at the result of the tnter- view. Governor Lindsay left nere to-night for New York. Alabama Bonds. ject of Congressional investigation. that State, visited Washington about a year since for the purpose of causing the issue of the scrip. The Commissioner of the Land Ofice directed this scrip to be made out, but from some mysterious rea- Son it was never issued. Some few weeks ago Goy- ernor Lindsay, of Alabama, received a communica- tion from a gentleman in Unio charging the exist- ence of a conspiracy for the withholding of this scrip by which Alabama five per cent bonds were to be depreciated in Wall street to sixty cents on the dollar, then bought up by interested parties and under @ State law exchanged at par rates for tnis scrip. AS a consequence an examination in the matter was had to-day under the auspices of Governor Lindsay, of Alabama, and the package of scrip 18 said to have been discovered in the Land OMice all made out, but endorsed on the envelope as withheld by direction of Senator Warner. The writer of the warning letter from Ohio charged that ex-Governor Smith and Senator Warner were in- terested in this stock jobbing conspiracy. It is said that ex-Commissioner Wilson knows all about the affair, and will no doubt make some curious revela- tons of this and other land jobs, The Deficiency Appropriation Bill—Ten Mil- lions in Jobs Provided For. The Senate finished the Deficiency Appropriation Dill to-day, and it now goes to the House for con- currence in the Senate amendments. The bill has been so completely changed that the Appropria- tions Committee of the House, whence it originated, will scarcely recognize it. About ten million dollars have been added tn the way of amendments, whereas the orginal appropriation was only a few hundred thousand. A great many jobs, foreign to the bill, have been put on in the shape of outriders, Members of the House say there {s at least a weok’s work for that body in this bill. Most of the Senate amendments will probably be rejected, and the bill will finally go to a conference committee. The democrats in the House will take occaston to expose the extravagance of the republican Senators, and will poit to this bill as @ specimen brick, Senator Sumner’s Foray on the President. The understanding at the adjournment of the Senate to-day was that Mr. Sumner will have the floor on Monday on his St. Domingo resolutions, when he will deliver ts speech on international law and point out the manner in which it has been violated by the President. He will probably be an- swered by Mr. Morton, nna Dieter PE Bill for ‘Suppression of Ku Kinxes at the South, Judge Shellabarger, chairman of the select com. mittee of the House on the special message of the President, is preparing a bill for the suppression of the Ku Klux. It will be a sort of yeclectic measure, composed of parts of Shellabarger’s, Butler's and Wilson’s original Ku Kiux pills. There will bea full meeting of the committee on Monday morning, to wiich the bill wili be submitted. As already stated, the democrats will oppose it m every shape. Some leading democratic members of the House gave it as their opinion to-day that the ses- ston would be prolonged untt! May. This is regarded as an indication that they intend to fiitpuster on the Ku Klux bill. Movements of the Japanese Commissioner. Governor Ito, the Japanese Commissioner, now in this country for the purpose of learning our system of fances and the customs and internal revenue Jaws, with the view of adapting them to the needs of his own country, will teave Baltimore to-night for New York, where he will spend some days in visiting the government offices, He will be accom. panied by his secretaries and Mr. J. H. Saville, the Chief Clerk of the Treasury Department, and Mr. Ress Fish, a clerk in the Warraut Division of that department. These gentlemen, designated by Secretary Boutwell to acquaint Governor Ito with our financial system and the methods of accounta- bility in the Treasury Department, have been en- gaged for several weeks past in this duty, and they report that the Japanese are apt scholara, Appointments in the Revenue Marine Service.
