From washington.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-Senator Will
son submitted to the Senate to-day a
communication from the Secretary of
War, transmitting from Gen. Grant
the plan proposed by Col. Parker and
his staff, for establishing permanent
peace with the Indians. 1t proposes,
First, To transfer the managementofthe
Indian affairs to the War Department,
for many reasons, among which, the ne
cessity of abolishing the trading and
agency system. Second, The esta 6lish-
ment of territorial governments for the
Indians. Third, The appointment of
an inspection board, as a temporary
measure, to examine the accounts of
the Indian agents, and inspect the
goods and agricultu raj implements-fur-
nished the Indians. Fourth, a COM
mission, consisting of whites and edu-
Gated Indians, TO visit all the tribes,
hold talks with them, show them the
benefits of permanent peace and the
abandonment OF romantic life; the
adoption of agricultural pursuits, and
of consolidating in one territory. The
American Government protests that it
can never adopt the policy of. total
determination of the Indian race with
out the cost of untold treasure and the
lives of her people, besides exposing
herelf to the adherence and censure
of the entire civilized world.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-The Worlds
Washington special says: The highly
important consultations which the
President and his Cabinet have been
holding with leading Southerners on
new plan for reconstruction, and al
luded to last week, ended last night
in an agreement that series of resolu-
lions, drawn up at the conference, in
favor of suffrage based on reading and
writing and property qualification of
$3.50, should be submitted for adoption
to the Southern legislatures, to pave
the way for the submission of the cues
ton by the President in his message TO
the Fortieth Congress. The sections
were sent to the Governors of several
States to-day, accompanied by letters
stating that they meet the Presidents
approval. The question of amnesty
does not appear to have been an essen
tial feature OF the proposed plan. The
Governor of North Carolina was tele-
graphed to tonight to keep the Legis-
lature in session, to consider these pro.
positions, and similar messages were
sent to the Executives of Alabama,
Georgia and Mississippi. Governor
Orr, of South Carolina, left tonight, to
submit the new plan to the Legislature
of his own State.
a Washington special says the Judi
ciary Committee have done nothing in
the impeachment matter yet, except the
comforting with several gentlemen in
formally, and this has been done by
the radicals Mt the request of Mr.. Ash
ley, in order to see how much of q pros
pect there was to sustain the charges.
1t is rumored that General Sheridan
will be sent out to the plains to conduct
the impending Indian war.
The Joint Retrenchment committee
have not yet found any foundation for
the charges against the management of
the sub-Treasury in New York. They
will examine few more witnesses and
report this week.
The Herald's special says it is defin-
itely settled that articles of impeach-
ment will be presented TO the House at
an early day, but the Senate will not
take the matter up till next session.
a prominent Senator says the Presi-
dent informed him that if the tariff bill
passed the House in its present shape
he would be compelled to veto it. The
Senate, it is believed, will pass it over
the veto, but whether it can in the
House, is unknown.
The Tribune's special says in the
meeting of the reconstruction commit
| tee yesterday each plan was debated
thoroughly. Mr.. Stevens advocated
his plan, but it is said did not receive
| much encouragement. They adjourn
ed to meet on Tuesday. 1t is doubtful
whether a majority will agree upon
any of the plans before them.
The New Orleans riot committee will
