ON N,w Y.Aa's DAY IT is the custom for all

ON NIw YsAR's DAY II 10 the custom for all
he officers Of the army in this city - call on
the President in a body, with the senior o1icsr
in command here at the head. General Grant
is not only the head OF the army, but is the
senior onieer in command here, his head
quarters being at Washington, and some Curl
Csty has been manifested as TO the course he
win pursue on pext Friday. 1t is known that
he and Mr.. johnson have never spoken since
the famous correspondence which grew ont Of
General Grants surrender OF tie War Once to
Mr.. Stanton. II seems, however, that General
Grant Is not disposed to bury the hatchet, or at
Il ast TO make any advances towards a recon-
ciliation. He proposes TO be absent from the
city on New Years Day nlmself, and it Is
understood that the invitation for his children
TO be present at the juvenile ball at the White
House On New Years night has been declined
TIE STORY told in the papers about an al
tempt by Senators al the close of the July ses-
sion to have General Rosecraus' nomination to
Mexico changed to Russia, and the refusal of
tne administration 10 act thereon, is entirely
new 10 the President aud members of the Cabi-
ret 1t is not very important, probably, bat
the transaction as related never occurred.

Mr.. BI INCKLRY, Solicitor Of the Bureau Of

trenchment, in regard TO the whisky frauds,
etc., and turns the tables by mailing some
slashing charges against that gentleman. The
document is decidedly racy reading, and will
doubtless attire ct good deal Of attention.

Conference Of the Great Powers are contradic-
tory. One despatch asserts that it 10 certain
that the Conference will be held another that
Russia has sskCd of Turkey and Greece q sus.

Russia has urged the United States to take part
in IT. and last Of all, that it is doubtful whether
the Conference viii be held; that England ad.
heres to her old policy on the subject, thst
france 10 indlterent, and that Turkey will not

endorses, denouncing the late outrages OF the

declaring tie repetition OF such conduct more
dangerous to the peace between the United

question. Mr.. Burlingame's mission has com.
menced its negotiations, and the acts Of the
British man-of-war at Yangtchow are under
