When the General Appropriation Bill was before thtb House of Representatives on Tuesday, one of the amendments in reference to mileage, again led lo an an imated debate, involving the accuracy of a recent statement by TMr. Greely, in the New York Tribune, that he had not yoted for certain books, or if he had, that he had done so under misapprehension. The amendment was ruled out of order by the 'Speaker, but the House reversed, that de cision. Mr. Greely explained, and Messrs. Hudson and Darling were called up by Mr. Edwards and stated that MrXJreelv, previous to the appearance of this recent article in the Tribune, had admitted to them that he did vote for these books! and had justified his vole thereon.
