THE VENETIAN PIaEoNs.-A curious In

ever disturbs them, and they do not fear
even the children; they know that they are
sacred. Who feeds them can hardly be said,
but their rittance is always there at the
usual time. At 2 o. clock on the day Of the
festivities a hundred thousand persons were
hacked close together on the Place st.
Mark, and when the clock struck the pigeons
appeared as usual, and flew backwards and
forwards but not space was lett vacant
On the ground where they could set their

THE SUPREME COURT DECISION.


THE SUPREME COURT DECISION.
General Grant had long interview with
Secretary Stanton to-day upon the effect of
the recent decision of the Supreme Court
upon military commissions. 1t renders the
Freedmen's Bureau and Civil Rights bills
nullities; and while it is allowed to stand
orders will be issued to prevent any conflict
of authority under it. Secretary Stanton,
General Geary, General Palmer, and all
other army officers who have been upon mil
itary commissions, are hourly liable to Grim
inal arrest and trial Senator Trumbull, who
drew up both the above bills, agrees with
the Supreme Court. This decision creates
intense excitement, and it is now claimed by
the President that the Constitutional
Amendment, abohshing slavery, will yet be
declared nullity.
