Coming Together

A special dispatch from Washing
ton says:
= at turns out oday that, in the Sena-
torial caucus, after having agreed on
the plan of restoration now pending in
the Senate, it WAS suggested that as
Tennessee had in advance complied
with all of the requirements contained
i'll the amendment, her Senators and
Representatives should be at once adj
mitted to their seats in Congress- A
long debate was had on this PROPOSE
ton, and it was finally agreed to. 1t
was claimed that this step, after the
passage by both houses of the pending
amendment, would elevate Congress on
the great issue of reconstruction, and,
on the other hand, it was urged that
such course looked too much like a
conversion to the Presidents policy
hut the proposition was adopted, and
as soon as the pending constitutional
amendment passes both houses, a joint
resolution will be introduced to admit
the Tennessee delegation to their seats
in Congress.
This looks to us like very long
stride toward reconciliation between
the Administration and the majority i'll
Congress, and the people Of this coun-
try-the loyal people-will hail it with
pleasure.

THIRD DISPATCH.

BUFFALO, June 3.
AT this hour, 10 p. M, everything is quiz
ct in the city, Gen. Meade, after a con-
sultation of several hours, left for Ogdens-
burg. where it is supposed the next move
ment will be made by the Fenians.
. Gen. Sweeney is said to be near that
place now, with a strong force. The city
is crowded with Struggling Fenians, but
they are making no disturbance.
1t is reported that the Canadian authori-
ties have made a requisition on the Uni
ted States Government for the Fenians
captured by the latter, and now under
guard of the steamer Michigan"
ALL QUIET ON THE BORDER.
At the time Of going to press we have
nething startling to report from the seat
of war. Buffalo is still overfiowing with
Fenians, but there has been no more fight
ing in that vicinity. Arms have beer
seized in large numbers at Buffalo and
Watertown. N. Y. A writ of habeas CORPUS
has been issued in behalf of the prisoners
on board the Michigan. The British ~ar'
said to have executed six prisoners and t.
have shot a soldier who deserted to th'
invaders. Meetings are being held in va
rious places as our dispatches relate. Th
Toronto Globe Of Saturday is quite sever
on the alleged apathy of our Government.

up their position in the old camp, about IL

o'clock this morning, hearing that the
Canadians, having been re-enforced, were
marching on Fort Erie, they determined
to evacuate the place. The signals were
given, and soon powerful tugs steamed out
of Buffalo creek, across the Niagara river,
to the ferry landing. The Fenians en-
barled and the first two trips were made
safely. During the third trip the tugs
