EMPIgES APPEAL
G0ssIp rRom WAsHrNeToN.

We have endeavoTed for several days
to reproduce in our columns the follow
ing special gossip to the Louisville Jour
nal, (which is vastly improved), tUI
come pressing matter, hardly Of as much
interest intervened. Although three o
four days old, being Of the 10Th and l7thsk
the several paragraphs refer to certain
things that have not been touched o
reached many other shape. Tue, wha
is said of the expected veto Of the uncon
stitutional District-Of-C Columbia election
bill has not yet been verified, and Lhas'h'
Is said to have interfered TO save MeCui
ioch, but not for long. We give thea
for what they are worth, and cOntin
uance of the same sort few days later lG
The bill legislating the lately defeAte1 z
nigger- WOrshippers Of Washington Clt!
mo Office, passed the House to-day. Th'
President will veto 1t of course; but theT,
viii be Radical force enough ia Congress
to mass il over his head. There IL mucE
exeltement in the minds Of the native
at this outrageous act Of usurpatloD.
There is q rumor cut that the Presl
dent will allow the omnibus DlIi"
the Radicals call thsiT act Tor the oeneh
OF the carpet-baggers in the province,
TO become q law by Limitation; but wei
| informed persons say he VIII veto
elRbOrstely.
Inc chances now favor an early ad-,
iournment of Congress. The members
! are very anxious TO look after tnelT eiec-
tiOns.
1 The post OF Attorney General will,
D1Sst probably, be declined by Mr..
! FVarts, who would accept that of Secre-
tary Of State, if Seward concludes 10
/ Withdraw.
The Chase movement has fZzled Out.
It never had any solid strength by
many it was considered mere ruse,
still mis- name may be formally presented.
The action OF the Georgia military
! authorities in the recent arrests meeI
! with the decided disappToval Of ali par
| ties here who have examined the facts.
The Texas carpet baggers are here il
/ force, with q memOriafprayingC Congress-
or rather the Reconstruction CommltIee,
| To take the military power out OF the
hands Of the United States military Off
oers and place il in the hands of the car
pel-baggers, VINO want to rule the otaIe
| by mihua, after the fashion OF the R2dI-
/ Gals OF Tennessee.
! The prosecution is still not ready TO
| trv young SurTatt. The fact is, they are
! getting sick OF the prosecution. There
| Is talk ofa new indictment and trial.
| Spencer NJ. Clark, famous, and, by
| many considered rather Infamous, iE con-
ueetion with the Treasury Printing Bu-
resu, has at length been forced by outside
/ PRESSURE to resign very fat berth under
| McOulIoeh,
Chief Justice Chase has been sent for
1 to help keep Secretary McCullOch in the
Treasury. 1t Is supposed the Chief jus
/ tIce has good deal of influence over the
President, and that he viii be Of signal
! Reryice in resisting the outside pressure
against MeOullOch's retention. The
movement is very formidable and saw
age, but It's success is doubtful.
Garrett Davis presented to-day peti-
ton from w. S. Cnipley, Of Lexington
Ky., detailing gross series of eutrsges
on mis- son by the military authorities OF
| Georgia, aud the base means used 10
subofn Witnesses. It was referred to the
Judiciary Committee. The whole mat
ter Will be prObed TO the bottom. The
/ treatment of the prisoners Is deemed
atrocious by all parties. Gen. Meade Is
said to have iDstigsted these outrsges
HIS removal fIOm Command Is expected.
Inc President told pr. Chipley that
these acts were horrible.
