Logan's Army Bill, which when I wrote last I felt sure would not pass the house, has, by dropping the Indian question been rushed thro' at an astounding rate. Assurances are given however that this does not indicated the true position of the House upon the measure, but that the dead-lock in opinion on some important points, and the press of business in the House, decided the latter body to get the who matter off their hands as they did, knowing it would come up again. The Senate seems to act, as usual, with more ease than caution. It appears likely now, that Wilson's bill, to which I do not object at all, will pass the Senate without meterial amendment, and that the Pay Section is sure to become law, but as to the rest of the bill, it is probable it will be overhauled in a committee of conference and What shape it will thereby take none can tell.
