Domestic Tronble* Extinguished in
Foreign Controversy.
At a dinner on Sunday, Grant, on tolerable
authority, is reported to have said: “If we will
let reconstruction alone, these minor perplexi
ties will soon be swallowed np by greater events
growing out of the recognition of Cuba and a
content oyer the Alabama claims. n
So read the telegrams yesterday, and as we
stated a day or two ago, we believe the mean
ing administration will take very stringent
ground with the British Government upon the
Alabama ckirng
If any particular interest predominstes with
Gen. Grant's administration, it will be the com
mercial and financial interests. They have em
bodied, ever since the war, his special friends
and most enthusiastic supporters, and they have
contributed with extraordinary liberality to im
prove Ms private fortunes.
Now, although the tone of these classes is or
dinarily very conservative, it is notorious that
the wounds inflicted upon them by the Alabama
have never even cicatrized by time. They are
still as bitter as ever against the English gov
ernment, through whose connivance they allege
these depredations were perpetrated. They
scout at all the defences set np by Earl Derby,
in his correspondence with Mr. Adams, and
which we think in the Judgment of disinterest
ed parties, must be conclnsive; and to sum np
the case, their real ground of quarrel with that
government is that it dared to recognize
the Confederates as belligerents and accord to
them, not equal rights, as neutrals, but any
rights at all. Looking at the controversy as
impartially as we can,it seems to ns that the po
sition of the parties offers little or no ground for
accommodation; and that the British government
went a great way for peace, when she consented
to submit these claims to arbitration.
Bat as we have seen before, no settlement oj
claims for actnal damage inflicted by tho Ala
bama upon Northern bottoms, will be likely to
meet the demands of tho inooming administra
tion. Gen. Grant, s few weeks ago, conversing
upon the treaty made by Reverdy Johnson,
scouted at such a settlement and insisted that
Great Britain should be held to answer for the
whole damage resulting from the interruption of
Northern commerce by tho operations of these
British-built Confederate Cruisers. No North
ern press has yet broken ground against this
extraordinary demand—a demand wMch is
clearly almost inimitable in character and
amount. There is no telling what kind of a bill
would be brought by the Northern people against
John Bull; upon grounds of hypothetical, as
well as actnal, damage—bills not only for sMps
and cargoes destroyed, but for profits which
might have scorned from the voyage—bills not
only for voyages interrupted in oonree—but for
voyages prevented and delayed—bms not only
for profits lost, but for profits which might have
accrued had it not been for these Confederate
war-vessels. It is s clear ease that a contro
versy between tho twJ powers poshed upon
these grounds, if it does not eventuate in. war,
must at least seriously threaten tho harmony of
the two governments, and create a good deal of
uneasiness and apprehension.
If the foregoing dispatch is true, it is clear
that Gen. Grant himself sees sufficient danger
to the peace of the country ahead, to induce
Mm, substantially, to recommend to Ms Radical
supporters, in view of it, to oease their sectional
war upon tho Southern people. Stop the little
fights, for we may have a bigger one on’ our
hands very shortly.
Now, leaving General Grant and the North to
settle these matters as they may, wo think there
is quite enough danger ahead to enter into the
arrangements and forecast of the Southern
• planters for the coming crops. A war with Eng
land will leave cotton Mgh and dry; and if it
finds the planters without adequate bread crops,
It seems to ns their case win be vexations and
troublesome. This possible contingency, then,
affords another strong argument why planters
should not neglect bread crops, which wo hope
they will lay to heart.
A Misaadcrstandlng Somewhere.
The people of Georgia most be puzzled by
the telegrams about the alleged blunders in the
certificates of her so-called Representatives to
the 41st Congress. What do they mean? The
telegrams of yesterday, for illustration, stated
that “the credentials (of the members) from
Georgia, were defective by tho omission of the
Congress for wMch they were elected." And
again it is said, “These blunder* will deprive
Georgia and Louisiana of a voice in the or
ganization of the House." It is quite certain
that the people of this State understood their
Representatives to have been elected for the
40th, and not for the 41st Congress, and the
omission in the certificates to state that they
were elected for the 41st Congress was at least
no “blunder.” Representatives to the 41st
Congress were nominated last Fall by both par
ties in Georgia ; bnt there was no election, ow
ing to the default of the .Legislature to enact a
law for that purpose, in the absence of which
the election will take place in regular course un
der the existing law, next October. Consequent
ly if no special election is provided for, Georgia
will be without Representatives during the extra
session. _
The Inauguration Ball.
The Western telegrams state that “a fiendish
copperhead’' had purchased ten tickets to the
Inauguration Ball and distributed them among
negroes, with the stipulation that the distribu
tees should each personally attend and’ lend
countenance to the festivities. The affair, how
ever, got wind, and created such consternation
among select circles that prompt measures have
been taken to intercept the darkies at the door.
If «lti« is done, will it not be a case clearly de
manding the interposition of Judge Underwood
and the Reconstruction Committee ? Will it be
any less a violation of the civil rights bill to deny
these negroes, with tickets in their hands, ad-
— mission to the Ball, than it was in the Rich
mond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad
Company to refuse that negress admission to
the ladies’ car? .
T. C. NrsBKr’s Ibok Wobxs.—We invite atten
tion to the card of the above works. Mr. Nisbet
is prepared and will do all work in Ms line at
short notice and on reasonable terms. Employ
ing good mechanias in the various departments
he will guarantee Ms work to give satisfaction.
Repairs of all kinds of machinery promptly
made. Encourage yonr home manufacturers, if
yon wish our country to be wealthy.

road Companies in this State from being responsi
ble for killing stock of any species running at large.
It provides that each Company eball build a fence

bill on account of the fence danse, and the expense
it would be to the Companies to construct a lawful

A sharp sparring occurred between Bryant end
Fitzpatrick, growing oat of the resolution of the
former, thanking Bard for fomiahing members of
the House with the New Era.
The resolution was adopted. ,
Fitzpatrick proposed a vote of thanks to Bryant
for stating that he was Bard's friend and partner in
the State printing, and also thank‘‘Brick" Pomeroy,

services rendered to Democrats. “Fill’s’’ resolu

tion bffi failed by a vote of 22 to 26.
Nevada has ratified the Fifteenth Amendment.
The crowd is increasing.
Mr. Johnson publishes a two-column address to
tbs people of the United States in defence of bis
course as President He invokes tbs consideration
of the people in behalf of his successor. Mr. John
son says he would have achieved much more present
popularity had he consented to co-operate with the
parties who desired to carry on the Government
ontsido of the Constitution. He does not regret
any of his actions, all having in view the restraint of
Congress within tho limits of the Constitution. It
is a very able paper.
The debt statement shows s decrease of nearly
811,000,000 in coin in the Treasury, with nearly
899,000,000 in currency; nearly 817,000,000 in coin

scription.
Noble Sentiments from the President
Washington, March 3.—The following is the clos
ing paragraph of President Johnson's address:
“Calmly reviewing my administration of the Gov
ernment, I feel that with a sense of accountability
to God, having conscientiously endeavored to dis
charge my whole duty, I have nothing to regret.
Events have proved the correctness of the policy
set forth in my first and subsequent messages.
The woes which haTe followed the rejection of for
bearance, magnanimity and constitutional rule are
known anddeploredby the nation. It is a matter of
pride and gratification, in retiring from the most ex
alted position in the gift of a free people, to feel
and know that, in a long, ardnons and eventful pub
lic life, my action has never been influenced by de
sire for gain, and that I can, in all sincerity, in
quire: ‘Whom have I defrauded; whom have I
oppressed, or of whose hand have I received any
bribe to blind my eyes therewith?’ No responsi
bility for wars that have been waged, or blood that
has been shed, rests upon me. My thoughts have
been those of peace, and my effort has ever been to
allay contentions among my countrymen. Forget-
ing the past, let ns retain to the first principles of
the Government, and unfurling the banner of our
country, inscribe upon it, in ineffaceable characters,
the Constitution and the Union, one and insep
arable."

ilia valedictory to-day.
Pomeroy, of New York, waa elected speaker for
the balance of the session.
The House is now considering tho report of the
Committee on accounts.
After the valedictory and salutatory, the print
ing of certain documents was ordered, when the
Committee on Accounts had a conflict with the
House over the payment of the Louisiana contest
ants. The Committee on Accounts moved to re
scind the resolution allowing them $2300, and to
allow them $1500. The resolution was tabled by a
large majority.
The appropriations were considered np to recess.
.Both Houses are in session, and will probably
remain in session till noon to-morrgw.
Senate.—The Senate passed the bill for the re
lief of Washington Banker, and W. W. Corcoran,
with an amendment requiring Corcoran to tike the
iron clad oath.
The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations re
ported in favor of a non-concurrence in the bill ten

bellion, be and the same is hereby repealed.

From Cuba.

political prisoners will be lent to Fernando Po.
Frandaco Hernandez, commanding cavalry, waa
arrested on a charge of disloyalty.
The Diaro reports three engagements of troop*
under Calvadero. The Insurgents lost sixty killed.

Sagui la Grande, in which the Insurgents lost twen
ty troops. *——

the revolutionary General Curago has surrendered.
General News.
Trenton, N. J., March 3.— The bill abolishing
the transit dues on canals and railroads passing
through the State, has passed the Legislature.
London, March 3.—Viscount Gough, nearly 90
years of age, is dead.
The Pacific Railroad.
It is announced that iha Pacific Railroad bag
been impassable, on account of snow, since the
12th of February last, and yet the winter has
been one of extraordinary mildness. Such inter-
uptions as this win speedily settle the question of
the availability of that hyperborian route to tho
Pacific, as a permanent and reliable channel for
the enormous traffic between the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts—the great East and the great
West. An entire stoppage of communication
for a month, and perhaps for two or three
months, liable to happen at any time during
the winter, will not only produce a ruinous de
rangement of trade and credits, bnt be attend
ed with vast losses of the merchandise itself,
wMch will be buried up in the snows for an in
definite period. The chances are that, after
the route is built, it may have to be abandoned
in favor of one more Southerly.
Brownlow
Went to Washing&n in state with a special
exclusive ear—a body guard of four radicals,
and a story that somebody tried to shoot him on
the way. He is so nngnlar s compound of ma-
levolence and personal vanity, that should he
ever find himself out of a quarrel or public
gossip, the verdict will be “found dead." This
ingenious expedient to create talk about him
self, yon see, has answered the purpose; for it
got him admission to the press telegrams, and
made Mm the subject of many newspaper para
graphs like this one. Brownlow will be in Ms
clement in the Senate as the leader of the car
pet-bag faction of that body.
From Cuba.—The more wo hear from Cuba,
the less we know. The Spanish bulletins of the
war, wMch are all we get, are as luminous as a
Chinese Vermillion edict about the long-haired
rebels. The rebels always get the worst of the
fight, bnt the insurrection still lives and flour
ishes. Meanwhile, Congress has passed unani
mously, a resolution sympathizing with Spain
and Cuba, and authorizing the President to
recognize Cuba whenever, in Ms opinion, a re
publican form of government shall have been
established.
That's a queer resolution. Sympathizing with
old Spain while yon steal her “brightest jewel."
Too Late.—Our Atlanta Reporter's letter
reached ns yesterday morning again—too late
for this edition, because failing in the morning
we supersede it with the reports of the Atlanta
daily press. We wish always to place the Leg
islative reports on our outside. Would that we
oonld dispense with them altogether.
Got the Fidgets.—The financiers are in a
fidgety mood, on the Alabama claims question,
They are afraid that Grant in his Inaugural
speech to-day will throws brickbat at Great
Britain, and if so it might hit the “securities”
on the shins, and “drop ’em.” We shall see
what we shall behold.
Brownlow’a Militia
In Tennessee, are patterning stricty after the
“loyal militia” in Arkansas. The town of Pu
laski last Friday was the scene of a horrid rape,
of a young negro girl of thirteen. The negroes
turned out and killed tho militiaman and threaten
to hunt down tho loyal melish with guns, hatchest
and axes as they would so many tigers.
Repeal of flic Tenore-of-Office Act.
A UVZLT SKETCH OF V1VIT.V AFFAIRS.
It will be seen by the telegrams that another
attempt was made yesterday to get rid of tho
Tenure-of-office Act, by an engrossed rider upon
an appropriation bQL It was adroit, bnt failed.
How this failure will afflict the incoming ad
ministration, and what importance is attached
to the repeal of that act, may he gathered from
the following from the New York World :
General Grant said to-day, in conversation
with a Western Radical Senator, “I really hope
that the Senate and House will not repeal the
law calling the Forty-first Congress in March, as
the Senate has left me only that body to deal
with." These few words have traveled Wide ly.
They have been told to, reported by, and mused
upon by nearly every Radical Congressman.
They are as variously construed as are the ap
prehensions roused bv them. The following
will serve to explain them, perhaps: It is now
known that there is a Grant party and an anti-
Grant party in the Senate. The Grant party
are lead by all the Radical anti-impeachment
Senators, and also by Morton, Sherman, Tipton
and Nye, and such men as look back upon their
votes for impeachment as the scandal of their
lives. The anti-Grant men are Abbott. Cattle,
jg, Conness, Cragin, Drake, Edmunds,
Ferry, Frelinghuysen, Howe, Howard, Morrill,
(of Vermont), Sprague. Stewart, Sumner, Tip-
ton, Wade,' Williams, Wilson. The middle men
are the carpet-baggers, who ore willing to sell
ont to whichever side promises and pays the
most
The vote to postpone the repeal of the. Ten-
ure-of-Offico act in caucus yesterday precisely
represents all the anti-Grant men and two car
pet-baggers, McDonald and Sawyer, who for the
time have flopped over to tho anti-Grant side.
These men, by a trick, postponed the civil ten
ure repeal bill yesterday. Apparently, having
been in the caucus, their action is to be accepted
by the party, as on a motion to take np the bill
ail the Radicals bnt six sided with the caucus
and voted no. Though attempts will be renew
ed by Grant Radicals, who smart at the snap-
judgment of the caucus, to take npthe bill, it is
believed it will not be taken up, and the anti-
Grant men role the roost for the few days left
of the present session. Grant accepts this fact,
so to-day he remarked that “the next Congress
will be the only body he has left to deal with.”
It is known to night that since yesterday the
President-elect has been mad. to use a plain
word, at the trick of the caucus. Everything
pointed to the repeal of the civil tenure law
and the caucus blasted all That Grant was mad,
is mad, will remain mad, is conceded. That
grave Senators, Ms friends, fumed and swore
and were in a wMte heat of rage at the caucus
trieV, is a matter of evidence. In its kind, there
exists as much strife about Grant in the Senate
of the Fortieth Congress tewlay as there ever
was about Johnson. The Republicans are divid
ed now into Grant and anti-Grant men. In March
they will be divided into administration and an-
ti-administration men. The reasons for post
ponement of the civil tenure repeal bill are ac
cepted as silly—first, because they originated in
the bucolic brain of Wilson; second, because
they were based upon a repotted fear of Mr.
Johnson’s veto of it, when it was known ’he
would approve the repeal at once.
The anti-Grant men, who achieved postpone
ment by a trick, boast to-night that the next
Senate will do the same thing. The Grant men,
who still want the act repealed, are actually
promising a carte blanche of patronage under
Grant to the Democrats if they will co-operate
to obtain repeal They declare, too, that no
man who voted for postponement yesterday will
ever share Ms confidence or Ms offices, and that
such nominations will be made as will be con
firmed in executive session by the united votes
of the Grant Republicans and the Democrats,
and none other. Hence, as Grant says to-day,
Ms appeal lies to the Forty-first Congress, and
within it he proposes to find and form his
friends. This is the situation to-night
The Supreme Court of Illinois has rendered
a decision that the keeping of saltpeter in the
