s Tho Army Of the Potomac---I.u-
mored Recognition by France of
the COnfedcracy.
New YORK, March ga special to the
Tribune dated Washington, March s., says:
Gen. Grant had a conference to-day three
hours long with the Secretary of War aud
Gen. .Halleck,. upon the military situation
in every one of the fighting departments.
In this important council general plan of
campaign was agreed upon, that's intended
to be decisive. In the particular policy of
making more energetic and decisive use of
the Army of the Potomac than has hereto
fore been made, was fully recognized. 1t
Is understood this will extend to more than
reorganizing and to changeits commander.
Gen. Grant will go to the Army of the Po-
tomac Tomorrow to see its condition, and
to find out what it wants. He has hardly
slept from his Tong journey here, and yet
is hard at work. Gen. Halleck will, as
stated by the Tribune, perform the func-
tiohs of chief of staff to the President,
the COMMUNICATIVE Chief. 1t is stated by
high authority that Gen. Grant will soon
return to the South to finish his big Job.
. Minister Dayton's son is said to have ar
rived here from Paris to-day, with dis
patches from his father, expressing the
opinion that in the accordance by the
French Government of free egrcss to rebel
cruisers, from ports in which they had been
allowed to receive repairs, was foreshadow-
ed the recognition Of the Confedcracy.
Gen. Grant, to-day, stated to the Presi-
dent that reports of Gen. Sherman having
met with reverses were wholly untrue. He
had accomplished all he was sent to do
which was to destroy railroads running
from the Mississippi in the direction of
Selma, SO as to prevent rebel diversion
upon Banks in the spring. .., 4 .-

Gen. Grant I'm Favor Of the Cap.
fure of Richmond.

New YORK, March 10.-The Herald's spe-
cial, dated Washington, March 9th, says: A
council Of war was held to-day, in which
not only the President, Grant, Halleck and
the Whole Cabinet participated, but all the
military talent in which the Administration
has confidence was called in. The basis of
the case submitted to its consideration, was
that the several February expeditions had
nearly miscarried, and the country was be-
coming alarmed and dissatisfied. have it
from q source which L consider reliable,
that after the grounds had been gone over,
Grant was called upon for his views, and
he promptly responded in favor of the cap
ture of Richmond as the first step in the
campaign, and feel quite sure oruers will
instantly 60 forward to bring the 11th and
18th corps from Chattanooga, and the 10th
and 18th corps from the Mississippi river 10
Virginia. All troops which can be spared
from other points will, according to the
statement which reached ME, be incorpora-
ted in the Army of the Potomac, and Banks
be reinforced with negro troops, but Moth
ing more. 1t is expecJed that with the aid
of the fleet he will be able to take Mobile.
The great bulk of white troops will be con-
centrated in Virginia. 1t is believed that
250,000 men can be brought against Rich
mond at an early dav. Ge
A Washington correspondent understands
that General Grant protests against further
attempts to penetrate the Confederacy I'M
til Richmond shall have been taken. He
disagrees with Halleck and places the high
est value upon the rebel capital, declaring
that Cincinnati as well as Washington is
threatened by it.
Another correspondent says: think it
probable Grant will command the main col
umn, with Sherman, Mcpherson, Meade
and Hooker, as chief subordinates.
Gen. Vim. Smith reached here to-day,
which gives rise to renewal of reports that
he will supercede Meade. 1t is claimedthat
Grant urges disappointment - T

SHOOTING ArFRAY.--About seven o'clock
last evening two soldiers. one of them said
to be an officer, were ventilating their pat
riotism on the corner of Gay and High
streets, abusing copperheads and bloyiating
generally. One of them stepped up to Mr..
James Gillen and asked him whom he had
voted for. Mr.. Gillen, who is a Republican,
replied that that was his own business
The soldier then denounced him as cop
perhead, and, cooking his revolver, fired
through his pocket at Gillen, the ball pass
ing very close to It's intended victim, but
fortunately missing him. Capt. Ed. Davis,
of the Police, arrested the belligerent indi-
viduals and consigned them to the City
Prison.

FERMENTATION OF the Flag Of the 10th
Infantry 20 the State.

Whatever may be the result of this tre-
mendous war,--and none doubt that the
just cause will finally prevail--and what
ever may be the difference of opinion rs to
the pervcrsion of the war from great and
holy cause to the promotion of political in
terests and furious fanaticism-the record
of the deeds of chlyalrous valor and hero
ism enacted by the soldiers from the State
of Ohio will forever remain recorded in the
history Of the country, and kept fresh and
green in the memory of our people, as acts
to be recalled with patriotic pride and
pleasure. And the Scared and tattered
mementoes Of those dreadful and bloody
struggles in which our fellow citizens have
engaged and acquitted themselves so nobly,
now being collected and preserved by the
State, will be pointed to with pride by an
other generation as the evidence that they
sprung from a race with whom valor and
heroism were unquestioned qualities.
To the long array of the trophies of this
sanguinary war already collected in the
State House, there was yesterday added
the battle flag of the old 10Th Ohio infantry
Ia standard which has been carried in the
front Of every battle in which the Army of
the Cumberland has been engaged, from
Shiloh to Mission Ridge and the "battle In
the clouds" The flag is riddled and torn
by bullet holes, and the staff has deep
scar made by rebel shot which killed the
standard-bearer In its last battle. The flag
has been ON exhibition at the Fair in Cleve-
land, and was yesterday presented to the
State in the following handsome letter; from
Col. Henderson Of the 10Th:

get any coal from our consul or any body
else, but by subterfuge obtained sufficient
to to get to Key West; although two Gov

In the Supreme Court of the State yes
terday, Hon. Jacob Brinkerhof, Chief Jus
tiee, presiding, Hon. Josiah Scott, Hon. Ru-
fas p. Ranncy, Hon. Horace Wilder and
Hon. VIM. White, Judges, the question Of
the constitutionality of the law giving the
right Of franchise to persons out of the
State In the military service Of the General
Government, was again argued. The case
is the same one which was argued In Janu-
ary last on an application of the Republic
can candidates on the County ticket in Wy.
andot county fora peremptory mandamus
TO compel the County Clerk to count the
votes pollcd out of the State under
that law. The Supreme Court then
declined to decide upon the question of the
constitutionality or nconstitutionality of
TIE law, but simply remanded the case to
the Common Pleas Court, deciding that the
law gave inferior courts ample power in
the premises. On the case being heard in
the Common Pleas of Wyandot county.
Judge Whitley refused to issue the writ and
decided the whole law to be unconstitution-
al. So the case again come up yesterday In
error to the Common Pleas Of Wyandot
county, the object being TO secure fair and
square decision upon the constitutionality or
unconstltutionality Of the law. ffis'1
Judge Bowen opened the argument on
behalf of the Democratic candidates who,
under Judge Whiteley's decision, now hold
the offices to which they were elected. by
the people Of the country. Judge Bowen
made an able argument recaptulating the
main points made at the previous hearing
Of the case y" ~ #f.f "f
He was followed on the same side Of the
question, by Judge T. w. Bartley, who
made one of the best land most complete ar
guments ever heard in the Court. His
speech Is every where spoken Of as being
mastery and overwhelming refutation of
the sophistries set up by the advocates Of
the soldiers voting law who claim to found
their opinions upon the Constitution of the
State. Judge BARLEY took up the points
made by Columbus Delano in his speech In
the House of Representatives and complete
demolished them one after another, and re-
butted the arguments of that gentleman by
Mn overwhelming array of the best author
tiles. He also brought. out several points
not hitherto touched upon in the previous
discussion, which we shall not now under
take to give. He exhausted the subject in
profoundly learned and extremely inter-
esting speech of three hours, which should
and doubtless will be published.
When Judge Bartley concluded the Court
adjourned until this morning, when the ar
gument will be closed by Judge j. D. Sears
on behalf of the applicants for the man
damus.

The Wool Trade.

Our eastern exchanges note an improved
feeling in the wool market since the elec-
ton and sellers are more firm than they
were ten days ago. In New York the in
auiry, principally from manufacturers, has
been more active during the past week.
Low and medium fleece are most in demand
lust now, but fine wool Is not neglected.
The range of sales was from 95c to 81 05;
but holders of choice Ohio are not willing
to sell at the outside figure. A "good time"
is expected by them, and they are now
slow to fix figure. The sales of the week
closing on the 18th, in New York, are re-
ported at 100000, including 10000 Ohio at
ST. O5. The Economist says some holders OF
Ohio fleece are asking 81 25, and intend to
hold until they get it.
In Boston, The shipping List notes deci-
ded improvement in feeling and an ad-
vance of fully five cents per pound. There
is in that market considerable inquiry from
manufacturers who would just now be very
free purchasers If sellers were willing to
meet their views, but the latter feel that
they are again beginning to have command
of the situation. Sales were made during
the week at from 95c to $10 05. In Philadel-
phia some sales are reported as high as
ST. 10, but this is above che general market
in that city. The drouth in the east has
rendered idle large amount of woolen
machinery. A rise of water will start 1t
all, and add much TO the demand now
springing up. t'anli9 at' ~
