) uic-oay-tEe President has not sent in his veto
t ene southern Military Bill. That the Executi
, ooJectlons will be surely forthcoming, no one
congress seems to doubt. It is ayerred that mar
Denocratlc members have already had sight a
ana knowledge of, the tenor Of the vetoine me
sage, and have come away from tho White Hons
reconciled to allowing Mr.. JoHNsoN's demurrer
,he Bill to take. its course toward the ineyitab
over-rule Of the majority.
Ihere is however, one line Of manoeuyre whic
tne democrats refused to forego, despite the dc
Precatlon or his Excellency, and that encompasse

faxed loud and furious in their respective styles Of
