T1oNs.
WASHINGTON, November S0.-The following
is General Grants annual report as General OF
the armies of the United States:
HDoRs. ARMY OF THE UNITED STATES,
WASHINGTON, November "a.
To General J. II. Schofeld Secretary Of War:
SIR have tbs honor to submit the reports
of division and department commanders 1or tne
mast wear. These reports give null account
OF the operations and services Of the army Tor
the past year, and refer to them for details.
would earnestly renew my recommendation
OF last wear that the control of the Int ANS be
referred to the War Department. cak speclai
attention to the recommendation OF General
sherman on the subject. II has my earnest
approval. It is unnecessary that the arguments
in favor Of the transfer should be restated:
The necessity for it becomes stronger and
more evident every day while the Indian war
continues. do not deem any general leglsla-
ton for the reduction of the army advisable.
The troops on the plains are all needed. Troops
are still needed in the Southern States, and
further reduction can be made IN the way al
ready used and now in operation where 1t IS
safe, viz: by allowing companies to dlmlnlsh
by discharge, without being strengthened py
recruits, and by stopping the appointments OF
second Geutenants. II it should be deemed
advisable, the veteran reserve regiments might
be discontinued by absorption and 1etlrement
OF the officers, and the discharge OF the men,
without detriment 10 the service.
Very respectfully, your obedlent servant,
o. S. GRANT, General.
General Grant departed Northward to-day.
The treasury agents seized in New York, on
Friday. thirty-ive thousand yards Of fine
Lyons silks, and large quantities of French
clocks. 1t is the largest seizure ever made in
the United States, aggregating $4,000.
Meade's report gives detailed account OF
his operations. He was applied to from all
parts of the States, under his command, to re-
move occupants from Office and appoint others
in their stead. He declined to make changes,
except where neglect OF duty was proved, or
attempted obstruction of the Reconstruction
acts. He refers to the anomalous condition OF
affairs, and suggests that more power be given
to department commanders.
The suit Of John Naglee us. Stanton, for in
Jury to Naglee's farm, in Prince William
County, Virginia, during the war, has been
dismissed with costs.

The Case of Jefferson Davis-MotioR to
Quash the Indictment against Him.

RICHMOND, November sO.-Ihis morning in
the United States Circuit Court, Robert Ould,
counsel for Dr. Jefferson Davis, moved to
quash the indictment against him on the
ground that the fourteenth amendment pre-
scribes the mode of Furnishing participants IN
the rebellion, which is distranchisement, and
no other punishment is prescribed. The prose-
cutting attorney moved to postpone the mo-
tion until the latter part Of the term. Chief
Justice Chase decided to hear argument on the
motion on Thursday.

Amnesty for ALI.

The Christmas Proclamation of President
Johnson, published yesterday, extends
full pardon and amnesty to all persons who
participated in the o-called rebellion, in
cluding those who, by reason of their high
position in the Confederacy, were excluded
from the benefit of previous proclamations.
Mr.. Davis, General Breckinridge, and the
other Southern leaders, are How pardoned
as fully as the men whom they represented
and for whom they suffered so much. Mr..
johnson has done we'll in making the am
nesty universal, for the time has gone by
when any set of men, North or West, would
have been willing TO visit the penalty Of the
actions of seven millions of people 1pon the
heads of o handful Of unfortunate soldiers
and statesmen. The time, too, was we'll
chosen, and Mr. Johnson and this country
will rever have cause to do other than
rejoice at the issuing of the Amnesty Pro-
clamation of the Christmas Day just passed.

fession of Wilson, that Georgia was included.
The President thinks the right Of the Southern
people to bear arms right which inhercs IN
them as citizens Of tho United States, and per-
mission, or declaration Of such risht oy
Congress, is grautitous surplussago, II not I'M
pertinence. The President is expected In the
anticipated veto, to renew his demand ior the
repeal of all acts which will deprive all Southern
States of their equal rights in the Unlon' ana
will comment, it is believed, on the mingled
fayoritism and exclusion indulgsd by this very
bill towards several of the States Louisiana,
Florida, the Carolinas and Alabama being al
lowed to reorganize their militia, and Georgia,
Texas. Virginia and Arkansas (the latter BY an
omission by the engrosser), being omitted
from such plain right. The passage OF the
bill over the veto IS not doubtful. 1t is under
stood that Mr. Fessenden, of Maine, and Mr..
Sawyer, of South Carolina will endeavor to
reply tc the veto in the Senate.

CHI A. ARLES TON
SATURDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 2e, 1868
All the Year Round.

The business of journalism at the South
has, in the psst, been too frequently con-
Quoted according to ideas wholly inconsis'
tent with what, in cur view, is the rightful
dignity and duty of the fourth estate. The
subscriber and the advertiser have been
allowed; and even encouraged. to assume
the position of PATRONS term habitually
applied to them by many papers which ought
to know better-and the money received
from each has been accounted, if not an
absolute gratuity, at least as kind of busi-
ness favor, for which one can hardly be too
thankful. Hence the baneful prevalence Of
the credit system among Southern newspa-
pers; hence the burden of bad debts under
which most Of them are staggering and 30
many of them each year give up the ghost;
hence the high scale of prices by which
Brown is practically forced to pay the loss
incurred by the failure of Smith or Jones
to respond to that little bill; and hence,
worse than all, that sad lack of indepen-
dence which, in too many instances, pre-
vents the newspaper from saying what
ought to be said, ard what would be
said, but for the fear that Tom, Dick
OF Harry might "stop the paper" Now
we hold that there is no business trans
action whatever in which more full
equivalent is given for money paid than in
subscribing for or advertising in good
newspaper. Aad believing this, we have
adopted, and shall rigidly adhere to, the
cash system of subscription.
On the other hand, we conceive that
newspaper owes certain duties TO its read
ers which cannot with propriety be shirked
The suspension of the issue of leading
Journal on the morning after every public
holiday has seemed to us puerile proceed
ing unworthy of the progressive spirit of
our times. Accordingly, when the present
proprietors assumed charge of The NEWS,
they determined to disregard custom
which had become universal in the South,
and to issue paper on every day in the
year, excepting Sunday. Though the exc
cution Of this purpose has involved consid-
erable extra trouble and expense, it has
given so much satisfaction to the public
that we have been more than repaid for our
pains, and confirmed in our resolve that
THE News shall continue to be an unfailing
visitor at the breakfast table, holiday or
no holiday, all the year round.
