IMPORTANT SENATORIAL PROCEED.

See the STATS report Of this morning . proceed
lngs In the Senate. They were Of great import
ence, as explaining the mystery concerning an
expected veto that has been the subject q CONVEX
sstion everywhere In Washington for forty Gig {
hours past. Ii IL thus made clear that the Presi-
dents request for Congress to prolong the session
for a day at least, was to induce the body 70 re-
move hi. strongest objections to tbs Conhscation

atle him TO signu. According to Senator Clark,

President
Some Of the radicals Of the Senate are tuning
like madmen to-day over the Presidents alleged
" presumption" In questioning the immacu-
tdcY OF their policy upon any point. NeveTths-
less they viii sing gentler notes ere nighfal, we
apprehend as they have little stomach for the
expected veto they pretend to Gefy.
II Ia clear to that, IL signed by the President,
The conascaIIon bill viii be shorn Of its most OBJ
jection.ble and imprscticabIe features by the
adoption Of Hr. cerator Clarkes supplemental
provisions. Otherwise ali row anticipate veto.
