GEN. GRANT AND THE PRESIDENT.

The special Washington correspondent Of
the Chicago Times has the following in refer
ence to the relations between the President
and Gen. GRANT, which, if true, will be
gratifying to all friends of constitutional
liberty:
A writer in the Chicago Tribune, after
taking it for granted that the coup PetGt will
be attempted, consoles himself with the be-
lief that Gen. Grant will be found on the
side Of Congress and against the President.
He is very much mistaken. Gen. Grant,
always wisely reticent on political subjects,
is more reticent than ever Just now; but he
has said enough within two weeks to con-
vince all who heard him that he is the fast
and firm friend and adviser of the Presi-
dent, and that his only complaint on this
score is that the President "has not gone far
enough" The Radicals have made desper-
ate efforts to convert the lieutenant general,
but they have not succeeded.
Washburne has pledged to him the next
presidency, though it was difficult to find
out by whom he was authorized to do so;
but it has had no effect. Gen. Grant has
done too much for the cause of the Union to
be alienated by a party of Northern dis
unionists from the sympathy with man
who is honestly and sincerely endeavoring
to give to the country the fruits of the vic
tories of Gettysburg, Vicksburg and Rich
mOnd.
| repeat that | am very confident the
President has never entertained the idea OF
using force to interrupt the revolutionary
proceedings of the 39th Congress, but they
are greatly mistaken who believe that Gen.
Grant either sides with Congress or is an in
different spectator of the exciting scenes now
being enacted here. He and all his staff
are to-day the warmest friends that Andrew
Johnson has got in the United States, and
nothing has been done so far by the Presi-
dent, nor in all likelihood will be done in
future, that has not and will not meet the
hearty approval of the lieutenant general
And there is another general to whom the
country is not less indebted than to Grant
for its victory over the rebellion, Gen. Sher-
man. He has always differed from Grant
in displaying . willingness to speak his
mind fully. 1t is not necessary to say that
he indorses all that the President has done,
and favors good deal more than the Pre-
sident is likely To do

THE VETO IN THE HOUSE OF
REpRESENTATTvES

The special correspondent of the Cincin-
matt Commercial, writing on Monday last
from Washington, thus describes the scene
in the House of Representatives on the pas
sage of the Civil Rights Bill through that
body:
"The Civil Rights bill is the law of the
land, the objections Of the President to the
contrary, notwithstanding ~ was the an
nouncement made by the Speaker of the
House, this afternoon, after brief but very
exciting session. The notice given on Sat
urday that vote would probably be taken
to-day, attracted immense crowds to the Capt.
tol. The spacious galleries Of the House
were overcrowded by the time the session
convened. The distinguished spectators, in
Guiding number Of leading Senators, prom
inent among whom was Mr.. Trumbull,
author of the Civil Rights bill While
there was little or no doubt of the coming
result, the immense crowd seemed even
more excited and impatient than over the
similar scene IL the Senate on Friday. The
Speaker several times suspended business
until the House had become quiet.
At one O'Clock, Mr.. Wilson, Chairman of
the Judiciary Committee, stated that as forty
speeches had been made on the bill when on
its passage in the House, he was not dispos-
| ed to allow any now on the veto, and APP
pealed 10 his friends to sustain his demand
for the previous question. The Democrats
then commenced to make dilaiory motions
TO adjourn; TO postpone it; during which the
| Speaker made an elaborate parliamentary
decision that a motion 10 lay the bill on the
table was in order. This motion was there
fore made, but lost thus developing a ire
mendous majority in favor of the bill over
the veto. The Democrats then agreed to let
the question come to a vote. by this time
the crowd was so great that the reporters
were nearly driven out of their seats by the
ladies, while on the floor every available bit
of space was occupied. The yeas and nays
were taken directly on the question of pass
ing the bill, and, as every name was called,
| the greatest interest was manifested to hear
the responses. There was a murmur of ex-
element as Davis and Hale, of New York,
and Delano, of Ohio, conservative Repub-
licans, voted for the bill and against the
veto. The result was received with pro-
longed cheering on the floor and in the gal
leries, in the midst of which excitement the
House adjourned.
Those elected as Republicans who voted
with the Democrats against the BILL are
Latham, of West Virginia, Phelps of Mary
land, Randall, of Kentucky, Raymond and
Rousseau.
The Presidents Private Secretary was on
the floor of the House during the passing OF
the bill.

THE LEGISLATURE.

Nothing was effected yesterday. A suii-
Gent number Of members Of the House Of
Representatives are present TO constitute a
quorum, but yet quorum is not permitted
20 assemble. The interests Of the State are
languishing for legislation which is uncom-
pleted, but the factions and revolutionary"
majority steadily persist in their attempts
to set at naught the will Of the people in the
recent elections, and try their legally elect
ed representatives before a drum-head
committee on elections, whose adj
verso judgment is already made up.
To accomplish their wicked and sell
fish schemes, they are acting on the
principle of the Procustean bed. They
want Legislature, but they will not have
one unless they can lengthen or curtail it to
it the measure Of the franchise bill Short
sighted men, invested with temporary power,
can play fantastic tricks for a while with
impunity, but the sands of time are running,
and an offended people win one day con-
sign them 10 political obscurity and infamy,
and write over their resting places, No re-

SWEET ScENTED.-During the session of
the Senate on Monday, some twenty or thirty
negro women appeared in the reception
room, bearing flowers. They delivered to
the door-keeper thirty-three huge bouquets
each labelled thus: "We exercise the civil
right to express our gratitude" and signed
"colored citizens" with directions that he
present one TO each of the Senators who
voted Cor the Civil Rights bill, over the

THE developments made in the case Of
the recently contested seat in Congress be-
tween MessFs. Brooks and DODGE, exhibit
n disgraceful and corrupt mode Of obtaining
positions in the National Congress. In COM
parison, the rotten borough system of Eng
land, now about TO be abolished by the new
reform bill, is pure.
The evidence presents the names Of twen-
ty-fve or more prominent citizens and bust
ness firms Of New York City, who subscribe
sums varying from $1,000 to $50, for the
purpose Of "aiding the election to Congress
Of VIM. Z. Dodge" And vet this man was
admitted. The same system may have beer
practiced by his opponent, who was rejected
but House, jealous Of the character fol
purity Of its members, or regardful Of theii
duty to the people, would have refused th'
claims Of one who openly acknowledge
such corruption.
But in this, as in other respects, we seen
10 be falling heir to the eas'-oh vices o
other Government.

SELFRAIsING FLoUR.-This subject has
been recently before the courts of Ohio.
The case arose on the question Of the in
fringement Of trademarks. The following
information of what constitutes the article,
was developed in the statement of the
plaintiffs, and may prove interesting to
house-keepers
"Their complaint sets out that they have
for fifteen wears sold the article of that name
in packages Of various form, with marked
and peculiar labels. That they add to the
-four bi-carbonate of soda, and phosphoric
acid, in the form of highly acid phosphate
of lime, which, by chemical reaction pro-
duced in baking, forms carbonic acid gas
and the neutral phosphates Of soda. That
by their care in procuring pure materials
and proportioning them, they have created
a demand for the article in its several va
rieties Of family, rye, Indian meal, &c, each
variety having its special and peculiar label,
one of which has been copyrighted. Their
boxes were Of a special kind, and of peculiar
form. They claim that the chemical mate
rials used by them do but return to the -four
important and nutritious elements lost in
the boiling, with the bran, and that this
addition is the peculiar merit of the plain
tiffs -four, which was patented by Professor
Husford.
They charge that the defendants use dele
terious substance (alum), under labels and
in boxes &c, closely initiated from the
Heckers', SO as TO injure the plaintiffs in
their business, and ask an Injunction.
