(Joukling, to repeal tlio 12tl section of the act organizing tho courl to distribute the (ienova award, so as f'i allow insurance companies to par. tic' pale in that award, is not intended to allow tho claims of foreigh com panles. When the bill organizing tho Court WHS being perfected by the Senate Judiciary Committee, two years ago one of tho reasons urged for inserting tho twelfth section, excluding Insurance companies, was that stockholders in many our companies wore foreigners, and it would not be proper to allow them tho benefit of the award. JTNCHIUCK'S CHANCES. During a former session of congress the senate postponed the vole upon seating P.

15. S. Pinchback on his credentials to, tho second Monday of December (to-morrow.) It is now said that the action at that session does not make tho question an order of tho day as it would have done had tho session been continuous. A vote would therefore be required to take it up to-morrow. But this, tho friends of Pinch- luck do not desire, as senators Alcorn, Logan, Dorsey and Cragin, who would vote forhim if they wore present, are nol in their seats.

Pinchback is apprehensive of design on the part of the republicans to postpone action until after tho adjournment of tho Louisiana legislature, by the appointment of a person more acceptable to them the next election could bo earried-and two republican senators secured. Pinchback, however, is determined, to have a vote as soon as all his friends are In thier seals.
