Walker introduced a bill to dis continuo the Freedmen's Bureau. Tho resolution offered on Monday last, de? claring that constitutional authority to levy taxes does not include any power to impose duties other than for the collec? tion of revenue, and that the tariff levied for any other purpose than that of reve? nue, especially if levied to foster und encourage one section of tho country or one class of oitizens at the expense of another section or class, is unwarranted by the Constitution, unjust to tho great body of the people and injurious to almost all industries, and directing tho Ways and Means Committee to prepare a bill accordingly, was laid on the table by a vote of 89 to 77.

Chief Justice Chose delivered the opinion of the Conrt, sus? taining the decision of the Court below, and holding that a contract mado beforo the legal tender law conld not be dis? charged in United States notes. The opinion is very long, and discusses at great length tho powers of Congress. It holds that Congress had no tight to mako Government notes a legal tendor for pre? existing private debts. It does not touch the question of contraots mado since the law was passed. This opiniou was con? curred in by Mr. Justice Nelson, Justice Clifford and Justice Field.

He inquired who the Republicans would elect Sena? tors, to whioh the delegation responded that no nominations had yet been made, but that they would probably be made on Monday, and the election held on Tuesday. No doubt but what they will be loyal Republicans. The President said both he and Sherman had entire confidence in Terry, and he wontd fully j advise them of the situation in a few days, aa he would be here on publio i business.

Quaker Liniment. rnHE SUREST PROTECTION againPt di*- 1 1 case is thc timely uso of a good remedy. ' The great Family Liniment of tko age, for iii- f tornal and external use, combined in one med? icine. Not since the introduction of modern Che? mistry and analytical research into tho hidden mysteries of thc vegetable kingdom, has there been discovered a chemical product of such extraordinary curative powers as the "Quaker Liniment;" "this justly celebrated medicine was discovered and prepared by a Quaker Doc? tor, connected with tho naval service of the country, his practice was con?ncd to those se? vero caaes which usually result from a sea? faring life. Rheumatisms, Acute and Chronic, Colds, Coughs, Cramps, Chilblains, Fevers, Neuralgia; indeed, allacuto disorders requi? ring prompt and energetic medicine. Tho treatment of these complaints with the ordi? nary medicine of tho day failed to make a cure or relievo thu patient. Disappointed and mor? tified at thc result, and stimulated by the promptings of a puro humanity for tho suf? fering, as well aH a professional pride, he, after much labor and stndv, compounded bi* great Liniment, called tho QUAKER LINI? MENT. This medicino is remarkable for the peculiar proporty it possesses in being an in? ternal and external remedy at the same time, and differs from all other medicines in its ac? tion in arresting disease. It is taken internally for Colds, Coughs, Consumption, Cramps, Fever and Ague, Head- | ache, Asthma, Dysentery, Colic, Aclu Stomach, Cholera, Cholera Morbns, Sick Stomach, Pains in the Stomach, Diarrhoea. It is used externally for Sore Throat, Diph? theria, Swelling of the Glands of tho Neck, Head-ache,Neuralgia, Face-ache,Tooth-acho, Pains in the Back, on tho Side orin the Heart, Stiff Neck. Lumbago, Rheumatism, it is espe? cially good; Pains in the Bones, or in thc Muscles or Joints, for Stings of Insects, Snako Bites, Itching Humors iu the Skin; for ali these, and for more than wo can enumerate, it ia the great remedy.
