ing that Senator Morton's ill health was
only a plea for shirking political dutiaa,
rays: “He came to this oounty about a
month ago unable to walk. He has been
at the Hot Spriugs here daring all that
time, end if you had seen four or five
men conveying him to and from the
baths, as I bava yesterday and to-day, you
would come to the oonelusion that ill
health was no mere pretext, ra your ar
ticle would lead persona unaware of the
facts to suppose. The 8enator is now in
a fair way for racovary, and in the eourra
of a month or so more will undoubtedly
be able to return to his duties at Wash
ington in such a state of health aa will be
a fit subject of rejoieing to his friends.”
OPINION OF THE LEADING NSW TOBK PAPKES.
New York, December 8.—The Herald
rays the message of Grant is a more cred
itable document, both in point of reason
ing and literary execution, than its pre
decessors from the same souroe. The
President makes it dear enough that, in
hia view, the three principal causes which
haviTted to the disastrous defeat of hia
party, are prostration of business, the
condition of the Southern States, and the
unsuccessful experiment of reforming the
civil service. This is not directly stated,
but it is neoeaaarily implied in the texture
of his views on those subjects. The sum
of the message, so far ra it has party bear
ing, is the committal of the President to
the restoration of souud currency, an im
plied promise to treat the South with leni
ency and justice,aud abandon the oivil ser
vice reform, unless Congress supports it
by legislation. This is the programme of
President Grant for reinstating the Re
publican party. The Preside at has got the
Spanish question into snch a at at© that
it can be fanned into a flame when
ever he thinks it Expedient.
He relies on the country to support him
in a war in which the abolition of alavary
in Cuba, and tbe breaking of the yoke of
oolonial servitude, will be the leading
ideas; but Gen. Grant makes a stupen
dous mistake if he thinks he can play this
desperate game wiih success, if he haa
pigeon-holed our jnst complaint against
Spain with snch a purpose. He will have
canse to rue the day when he meditated
snch a trick.
The financial recommendations of the
message are sound iu prineiple, but defec
tive in details.
The Times considers that the President’s
views on finances have undergone no
change, and that his proposition to repeal
the legal tender clause is sound. The
President, in stating be will still sustain
Kellogg, does not say what he will do
about Packard, or Casey; which is a pity.
The 1'imes thinks the President's refer
ence to Southern matters is plain advice,
given in kindness and frankness. “We
are sorry that ho announces his intention
of abandoning the Civil Service reform,
unless Congress distinctly supports it by
legislation. It was an attempt that pro
mised much, and might have been made
to yield great benefits. With his recom
mendations as te specie payments and
free banking we are in entire sympathy.”
The Tribune considers this the beet
message of the President, probably be
cause written under the chastening of the
late election*. It condemns hia position
towards Louisiana, but commends, main
ly, nearly all the rest of tbe message.
The Sun says the President’s message
reasonably sound, theoretically, on
hard money and return to specie pay
ments, but the President’s arguments are
not as urgent as his theories are sound;
while some of his plans for returning our
paper money and reviving gold and silver
as a circulating roedinm will provoke
vere criticism, not only of inflationists,
but of hard money men as well. With
this exception of his recommendation
of the free banking views he now ex
presses concerning the ourrenoy, they
are bnt a reiteration of hia veto of the
greenbaok bill of last session.
The World says President Grant and
Secretary Bristow are less in doubt than
the Republican press and politi-
as to the significance of the
overthrow of their party in the late
elections. They have reached the clear
opinion by what means, if by any means,
the political revolntion can be stopped
midway and the Demooratio party hin
dered from taking possession of every
department of the Government ia the
elections of 1870. Immediate steps to
wards specie payments, not promises of
which execution is perpetually postponed,
and a reform of the tariff, to the end of
obtaining lArger revenues by lower duties
on fewer articles—these, their concurrent
advioe exhibits, and the President’s and
the Secretary’s aspiration at last, of the
great evils from which the country is suf
fering, and their admission that these
evils are of legislative origin and ad
mit of legislative remedy. Add to these
the exorbitances and usurpations of pow
er on tbe part of the General Govern
ment, and Gen. Grant and Secretary
Bristow will have discovered precisely the
vulnerable points in the Republican policy
upon which the Democratic assault has
been concentrated aud was irresistable.
The advice to Congress to abandon tbe
defence of what is indispensable and to
frustrate further Democratic victoriee by
themselves is now doing what the despair
ing people have elected the next Demo
cratic Congress to do.
members of Parliament was held last
Saturday, and it is asserted that it was far
from being harmonious. The question
was discussed of a successor to the Pre
miership in the case ill health should
otAige Disraeli to retire, aud the Earl of
Derby had a very slender majority. The
indioatione were that the Duke of Rich
mond or the Marquis of Salisbury would
be the ohoiee of the so-called reactionary
wing of the Conservative party. There
was also manifested at the meeting con
siderable difference of opinion on oue of
the ecclesiastical bills.

TALXBP OF POLITICAL COALITIONS.
Paris, December 8.—The scheme for
the coalition of the Bight and Left Cen
tres in the Assembly is making progress.
Mach depends on tbe election of a Presi
dent of the Left Centre, which is to be
held at a caucus to-morrow. The friends
of the coalition support M. Chevis Top-
heke, and those opposed have made M.
Come their candidate. It is probable
that, to prevent a division of the Left
Centre on this question of polioy, a third
candidate, Vautrian, will be nominated.
Meanwhile negotiations are going on for
an union of tbe extreme aud moderate
Right in opposition to tbe constitutional
biUs.

fficNATE.
A large number of publishing firms ask
a change in the postal laws.
West; of Louisians, introduced a bill
which direots the Postmaster General,
without delay, to construct a line of tele
graph from Washington to Boston, via
Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and
Hartford, to be operated in the postoffices
of these oities by appointees of the Post^
master General, uuder such regulations
and at suoh rates of tariff as he may pre
scribe, provided that the rates shall be
uniform to all persons, with such uniform
reduction to the newspaper press as may
be deemed by him advisable; aud pro-
vided the rates shall bo adjusted to meet
and not exceed tbe expense of operating
and maintaining raid line; and providing
a net income equal to five per cent, inter
est on tbe original cost of the same. The
bill proposes to appropriate $000,000 for
the foregoing purposes.
Chandler’s bill, amendatory of sectiou
110 of the national currency act of 1804,
and section 9 of the act of July 13th, 1800,
provides that they shall not be construod,
either in ponding cases or otherwise, to
apply to the evidences of aotual indebted
ness issued by any miniug, manufactur
ing or other corporation, or by individ
uals, except banks aud baukers prior to
the enaotment of this bill, but shall apply
to such evidences of indebtedness issued
thereafter upon positive proof of thoir
being calculated aud intended to circulate
as money.
Wright's bill proposes to reduce the
salary of the President, after this term to
$25,000.
Harvey’s bill provides that homestead
and pre-emption settlers, whose crops
have been seriously injured this year by
grasshoppers, may be absent from their
lauds until June 1st, 1875, without forfeit
ure of their existing rights.
Spencer, of Alabama, introduced a bill
to provide for tbe transfer of certain
oauses from the Distriot to the Circuit
Court in the State of Alabama.
Davis, of West Virginia, submitted a
resolution, calling upon the President for
information, which will enable Congress
to bring the Freedman’s Bureau function
aries to tbe floor.

HOUSE.
Washington, December 8. — Poland
made a report regarding Arkansas, which
was ordered printed.
Bill reducing allowances to bank exam
iners was passed.
Bill amending the National Bank act
in the matter of proceedings in liquida
tion was postponed till to-morrow.
A large number of bills were introduced
and referred, and then the House went
into Committee on the general calendar,
and took np the bill introduced last session
by Kelley, of Pennsylvania, providing for
the issue of 3-65 bonds, convertible and
te-convertible iuto currency. A long
and important debate sprung up on this
bill, which was advocated by Kelley, and
Butler, of Massachusetts, and opposed by
Garfield, of Ohio, and Dawes, of Massa
chusetts. Finally it went over without
action.

Secretary Bristow’B report says, regard
ing Col. McCarty’s management of the
printing bareau: “A careful considera
tion of tbe manner of preparing the
bonds, notes and stamps issued by the
United States haa led to the conclusion
that the work oan be more satisfactorily
and safely done in the Treasury Depart
ment than elsewhere. The bureau of en
graving and printing is now supplied with
the best machinery, which hss been ac-
quired at great cost, and the most skillful
artists are employed by tho Government
without difficulty. The system of checks
now in use in that bureau, together with
the special paper adopted by the Depart
ment, furnish all proper and reasonable
protection against duplication and other
frauds.
Senatorial Caucus.
LOUISIANA, ABKANBAS AND VICKSBURG.
Washington, December .8—The Senate
caucus to-day was cotnfined to some
changes in committees.
Senators are not communicative, but
indirect questions elioit the fact that,
though Louisiana, Arkansas and belliger-
ent Vicksburg were casually mentioned,
the caucus dodged the question as too
heavy for them. It ia fair to say, how.
ever, that these questions were merely
VICKSBURG.
ATTACK ON THE CITY BY NEGROES—THEY
ARK REPULSED —EVIDENCE THAT THB
ATTACK WAS INCITED BY GOV.
AMES AND HIS ATTOR
NEY GENERAL.
Vickbhuro, Miss., December 8.—There
has been for some time trouble between
tho Tax Payers’ Association and oitizens
and county officials. The Sheriff was
acting without legal bond, and the Board
of Supervisors refused to order a new
one, although the tiino for paying taxes
had arrived. Two or three other officials
were under indictment for forgery and
embezzlement, aud the citizens, despair
ing of any relief from the partisan courts,
held a meeting last Wednotday,' end in
a body proceeded to the Court House to
demand the resignation of the Sheriff,
Chaucery Clerk and Treasurer. All fled
except Sheriff Crosby, a negro, and he
sigued his resignation.
Saturday a card appeared on the streets
signed Crosby, calling on all citizens of
Warren county, lie publicans, white and
black, to come to liis aid and support him
iu his position. Crosby publicly through
tho pupcrs denied the authorship of the
card; yet, this morning armed bodies of
negroes appeared, advanciug on the city
from six different roads.
The alarm was sounded about 9 o’clock,
and the citizens gathered en nuvwe, aud
advanced to meet the negroes on Bald
win’s ferry road. The negroes were just
QUtside tho city and Grovo street, about
two hundred strong.
Tbe commander of the citizens warned
the negroes to disperse, but they refused,
and immediately firing commenced on
both sides. The negroes retreated about
a mile, and again mado a stand in tbe old
breastworks nnd a house, but were soon
routed. Loss iu thiB engagement was
citizen, Oliver Brown, killed, about
twelve or fifteen negroes killed and sev
eral wounded, and about twenty prison-

On the Hills ferry road, about 250 ne
groes were met and routed after a short
engagement, with several killed and
wounded.
Andrew Owens, negro, who command
ed the negroes in the Baldwin’s ferry
road, was captured, and committed to
to jail. In an interview with a reporter
Owens says he was ordered by Sheriff
Crosby to come to tbe city to-day with all
the armed men he coaid get together.
Alexander Stockhouse, from Newton,
one of the captured negroes, says tbe or
der for all negroes to couie to Vicksburg
this morning was rend in church Sunday.
Crosby, who is uuder guard at the
court house, denies that he gave such or
ders.
It is reported this evening that tho ne
groes are committing depredations iu the
oountry. The intense excitement that
prevailed this morning lins subsided to a
great degree, yet many citizens are uuder
arms, and all the roads ure picketed.
The latest evidence just received ren
ders it absolutely certain that Gov. AmeB
aud his Attorney General, Geo. £. Harris,
incite! and advised the invasion of this
oity by the negroes to-day. This evidence
has been laid before the ablest lawyers of
the city with n view to arresting and
bringing these parties to this city for
trial.
ANOTHER ATTACK ANTICIPATED—NEGRO LOSS

Vicksburg, December 8.—It was re
ported this morning the negroes will re

loss yesterday is estimated about 70. One
