How It Is Viewed by tbe New York Press. New York, April 30.—The Tribune’s Washington special says; After four months of the most search ing investigation and dispassionate discussion among the members in Congress, it is believed tbe plan will meet with tbe entire sanction of all shadea of opinion and sentiment. Thus far no man among the Union members of either house has expressed any disBent from this plan. The friends of the President gave as surance to-night that if Congresa carries out tbe scheme in good faith it will receive his co-operation. Neither of his organs here, it is stated, will commit themselves upon the proposition. To-morrow Thad. Stevens avows his readiness to acquiesce in the mea sure. The Lieutenant General expresses bis approval, and no measure of Congress has challenged such uni versal assent in all questions. It is not anticipated that any material amendments will he carried, and the States will be invoked to convene their Legislatures so as to secure the adoption by loyal States, thus stimulating concurrent action by states lately in re bellion. The World’s special says a member of the Recon struction Committee called on the President yesterday evening and presented him with a copy of the plan they had adopted, and asked him what he thought of it. He said he would let them know after he had care fully examined it. He said he thought there was con siderable backing down from all their former posi tion s. * The Times’ special Bays : It iB known that Senator Johnson and Representatives Grider and Rogers -only voted in the negativo; tho affirmative must be Sena tors Fessenden, Grimes, Harris, Howard and Williams, and Representatives Strong, Washburne, of Illinois, Morrill, Bingham, Conklin, BoutweH and Blow. Many members assert their belief that the entire pro position can be carried through both houses by a two- thirds vote. . , , . . The Herald’s special says: It is everywhere looked upon as a very diminutive animal to repay the long labor of tbe mountain. Common rumor attributes its production to Mr. Roscoe Conklin, from the Oneida District, New York, in conjunction with the massive intellect of Chevalier Forney. Both wings of the party are out of humor at the result of the extensive researches and elaborate investigations of this won derful inquisition.- Each of the antagonistic parties claim that nothing is accomplished by the scheme suggested, but as it don’t exactly controvert their opinions, and it is the nearest to their peculiar ideas that can be obtained, they subscribe to it. New York, April 30.—The Tribune says of the plan of reconstruction agreed upon the Committee; The exultation of pro-rebels over the inability to agree of the joint committee of fifteen has proved ill-timed. The committee have agreed on a proposition which will to-day be reported to both houses, and which have received the votes—12 to 3—of all but tbe Copperhead members. We may, therefore, accept and consider it as the Union party’s plan of reconstruction. Our own preference for a much shorter and simpler plan is well known. Universal amnesty, impartial suffrage—auch are its conditions, and the whole of them. The Herald says: The plan is Ingeniously con trived. It is considerably milder than anything here itaost amount of revenue ever drawn from the tofore emanating from the committee, and nearer the •a- people in any one year—irrespective of policy and views of President Johnson. It maybe --Sm never exceeued three hundred and seven- unnecessary In some things, superfluous in others, ydS dollars, while the amount of revenue and unfair in its continued exoluaion of the Southern ' e i'uueu states has drawn during the first | States, after having, on their part, fulfilled the condi- 0 f tne current fiscal v«ar by the van- 1 tion of the administration charged with discretionary ;awof direct and indirect taxation—has been powers over the whole subject, but we have now only : tuuiired and ten millions, or at ths rate of up- , to await the issue before the Houses. .: live hundred and forty millions per annum.

Af ter proceeding a few miles they discovered blood and other traces in the sand, which they followed up until they came to tbe body of Ur. Jones, hurriedly boned beneath the dirt and leaves. An individual of the neighborhood, whose name we could not obtain, has been arrested for the murder, and st last accounts was undergoing examination.
