Genera, Grants sneech and Policy.

General Grants Speech and Policy.
The Chicago Tribune is one of the most
influential Republican papers in the North.
1t is said to have more weight in Congress
with the Republican party than any west
ern paper. What it says of General GRANTS
speech ia therefore significant Of western
Republican sentiment. 1t says:
"This is a platform which will receive
the endorsement and active support OF the
entire people. and if any combination OF
influential men attempt to oppose 1t they
will have heavy contract on their HANDS.
1t ia evident that General Grant had refer
enco to the tenure-of- office law when ne
announced his determination to remove his
advisers and subordinate officers and ap-
point others in their stead IN any Gaze
where they should prove unfaithful or IN.
competent. Freedom of choice IS part OF
executive responsibility. The one cannot
exist without the other. The country be-
lieyes that General Grant will endeavor
earnestly, honestly, and faithfully, to dis
charge the duties of his Office. The coun-
try will insist that he shall have the
~ uu d., NV HAJ
he shall not be fettered like criminal or
suspected person OF the threshold Of his
administration by laws which prevent him
from removing officers whom ne deems un-
faithful or incompetent.
"Tho public would be interested to know
the names of the writer's Of the communl-
cations which General Grant has received
which lead him to apprchend an opposition
to his Cabinet in advance of its appoint
ment. Such communications arc not only
impertinent, but when addressed to man
of General Grants equilibrium excessively
foolish. The people will take care Of the
combination when it develops itself. We
venture to predict that three fourths Of
the Republican party and more than
one-half of the Democratic party will
rally enthusiastically to the support Of the
President elect upon the first appearance OF
o conspiracy, either in or out of the Senate,
to obstruct or thwart his administration be-
fore it shall have had fair chance TO per
form the work assigned to it by the people"

The Senate and Negro Suffrage.

The Senate on Wednesday rejected the
proposition Of the House for committee OF
conference on the subject Of the disagree
ment of tho Houses upon the constitutional
amendment. 1t then took up the PROPOSE
ticn to amend tho Constitution reported by
it's own committee, and passed it-ayes, 50
noes, II. The following is the amend
ment
"The right of citizens of the United
States to vote or hold Office shall not be do
MED or abridged by the United States OF
any State on account of race, color, or pre-
yious condition Of servitudc."
The telegram which announces this action
quotes word or two from Mr.. SArLsBUhY's
brief speech On the occasion. II is az A0i'
lows
"Mr. Salisbury suggested that the an
noyance and trouble caused to Congress Dy
the mistake Of the Almighty in making dis
tinction of color and sex might DE more
etfectually obviated by abolishlng those dis,
tinctions than by saying that they shouio
not be regarded. 1t might be provided hJ
one sweeping amendment that gil mel
should be of one color-say blue laugh
terl-and that there should be 10 distinction
between the sex and then, these disturbing
questions being out OF the way, congress
might devote it's attention wholly 10 I'M
practical interests Of great people-bLue
and without SEX" Laughter

The Virginia Elections

we publish this morning the bill reported
bv the Senate Judiciary Committee pro-
v;a;ne FOR the holding Of elections in Vir-
GINA. 1t proposes to submit the conss'.u-
tuition to the people, and along with H. oy
q isepara.s vote, the question Of agreeing
to the disqualification and the test'0ash con.
famed in the first and seventh sections OF
article three Of the constitution.
This is not as much as the "nine" we're
fairly led to expect at the hands OF Inc
Judiciary Committee. It was supposed
fror, the very decided expressions OF lead
,ny members of that committee, that the
obnoxious features which the reported OH
nronoses TO submit to q separate vote would
be erased by Congress as utterly lrreeon'
cilable with the reconstruction laws them
selves. There are two other features Of the
constitution which are not much less oo'
noyious than the two submitted to a sepa'
rate vote by the bill. These are the county
organizations. and the monstrous gerrynaE'
der OF the State. General GRANT was
especially frank in his denunciation Of the
county organization clause, in hia CONVEX
sation with the committee. He showed BY
HE remarks upon that provision that he had
studied the Virginia UNDERWOOD constitu'
ton, and fully appreciated its monstrou'
character. He evidently did not consider
j. as In accordance and harmony with
"peace."
We cannot anticipate what will be done
with this bill. The session is now very
near its conclusion, and the amount Of bust
ness Of general Importance pressing upon
Congress is very large. If this Virginia bill
L. TO be at all debated we do not see how 1t
can well be disposed Of. Yet If there is O
foregone conclusion to push It through it
can be matured with promptness, as we
we'll know from the past history Of the pro-
ceedings Of Congress.

The editor of the Journal denies that he
made the statement that the application for
removal Of disabilities Of no man who held
an office would be entertained by the Radi-
cal leagues in this State. We give his con-
tradiction. Mr.. BALDWIN, ct least in his
reply to Governor WELLS before the Recon
struction Committee, made the statement
that such was the fact, and Mr.. WHlTrLE-
sEY, who bored the committee for several
hours few days afterwards, did not cor
rect Mr.. BALDWIN on this point, although
he had the stenographer's report of Mr..
BIS remarks.

ARMY Oftioers-Not to Starve.

The following paragraph appears In the
Washington letter to the New York Irt-
Dune: <s..
General Grant, in oonversing with
prominent person few days ago, said that
should any of the measures now pending
in Congress looking to q reduction Of the
army by the mastering out Of service Of
officers who have long and faithfully served
thoir country no would provide for them as
far rs practicable by appointments In the
civil seryice."
This is, no doubt, exactly what General
GRANT sold, md what he will do If the
rhilsnthropists are determined that tho
army shan't be " soup-house," and turn
adrift number Of those who perilled their
lives in g war which these philanthropists
lid 60 much to bring on, General GRANT
will take care Of those officers, as he should
GO.
This is very significant talk of General
GRANTS. There has been growing up
amongst the extreme Republicans for some
time jealousy of the army. Testimony Of
military men is not popular with them.
They made move at the beginning of the
session of Congress to prohibit the appoint
ment CT military men to civil Offices. 1t is
singular that men whose extreme measures
sc clearly rested upon force-so clearly de-
pended upon the favor Of military authori-
ty thst they were forced to lean upon Gen
eral GRANT and make him, against their
own feelings, their nominee for the Presi-
dcncy-should be actuated by this fear Of
the military power. But ii is labor in
vain that they are making against the
strong arm Of this day. This is the mill
tary age. The military force must be pro-
portionate to the demands for its nee in this
immensely grown Republic, and any party
adverse to the army must sustain signal
defeat.

"WHITE" AS TO FoREIGNLRs.-The Ju-
dietary Committee of the Senate reported
on Wednesday adversely on Mr.. SUMMERS
bill to strike out from the naturalization
laws the word "white" wherever il &C.
ours. There is in Congress some lingering
regard for the word after all. If, however,
there were few thousand Chinese-enough
to affect the result Of an election in any
southern state-probably 8 special act
might be passed for giving them the RICH;
to vote, upon. the calculation that those
votes would count, and probably be given
to the party which conferred the right!

TIE FIGHT WITH THE RINGs.-The New
York Herald anticipates that General
GRANTS administration will be great tri-
umph for the country. 1t believes that he
will put down the corruption and frauds Of
the great rings, and reproduce "the golden
age OF AUGUSTUS" The following is the
Aeralds picture of the great struggle the
General will have with the hydra Corrup-
ton and his rings:
"The whiskey rings still compass capt.
tai stock Of hundreds Of millions; other
internal and external reyenue-defraudipg
rings are flush OF money, while the public
land and bond jobbers Of the West, IN the
shape Of railway jobs and Indian treaties
ead mining experiments, have schemes on
hand covering thousands Of millions. And
III these powerful combinations OF game
sters have their allies nc. only in the lobby,
n the church, and in the green-room, but in
] both Houses of Congress. The war has en-
kgiched thousands of bold adventures in all

TENURE OFFICE AcT.-The Repuhli-
can party of the Twenty-sccond Ward, New
York. has undertaken to resolve concerning
the "tenure- of Office " Law. So they In
public meeting declare that the law was in
tended TO restrain bad man." and that
its purposes will be entirely perverted il
it is continued as Btumbling-block to Gen
eral GRANT. They therefore proclaim that
the law ought to be repealed.

LOANS ON UNITED STATES N0TEs.-
The panic and pressure of last fall pro-
duced by loans upon currency az collateral,
and the frequent vibrations in money mat
ters occasioned by boarding currency
through this means, caused Congress to
look into the subject, and the result has
been the passage Of the following bill to
prevent this sort Of strategy SO injurious in
its effects:
AN ACT TO PREVENT L0ANING MONEY
UPON UNITED STATES NOTES.
a" Be it enacted by the Senate and House
Of Representatives Of the United States o.
Americc in Congress assembled, That 10 ma
tional banking association she'll hereafter
offer or receive United States notes or ma
tional bank notes as security, or as collate-
raj security, for any loan of money, or fer
q consideration shall agree to withhold the
same from use, or shall offer or receive the
custody, or promise of custody, Of such
notes as security, or as collateral secu-
rity or consideration for any loan Of
money; and any national banking as
ISOLATION offending against the provisions
of this act shall be deemed guilty of Il
pisdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof
In any United States court having jurisdio-
ton shall be punished by fine not ex-
ceeding one thousand dollars, and by q fur
ther sum equal to one.third Of the money
80 loaned, and the Officer or officers Of said
bank who shall make such loan or loans
shall be liable for further sum equal to
one-quarter Of the money SO loaned ; and
the prosecution Of such offenders shall be
commenced and conducted as provided for
the punishment of offences in On act to pro-
vide a national currency, approved June

shall be for the benefit Of the party bring
