money TO secure the passage of the Alaska ap-
preparation bill. At their next meeting they
will pi obably hear the testimony OF +. p
Stanton, Esq, IN reference TO the interview
between certain correspondent; and himself
referred 10 in the testimony Of Hon. Robert J..
Walker, on Saturday last: said correspondent
having represented himself as possessing great
influence over certain members and Senators,
which influence he would use to secure the
passage, providing he should receive a portion
of the money. The Committee, after hearing
this testimony of Mr.. Stanton, will be prepared
10 make their report TO the House.

THE BELIEF entertained by good many New
Workers that Hon. Hamilton Fish is to be a
member Of Gen. Grants Cabinet excites lively
apprehensions in the bosoms of the shifty pol.
iticians of the Empire State. Or rather varied
emotions, according to their sympathy in the
late Morgan. Fenton contest. As we under.
stand 1t, Mr.. Fish is regarded as an adherent
of MIR. Fenion. and his invitatIon to a seat in
the Cabinet would be claimed as new triumph
by that wing OF the Republican party. But
whether or not the fact that Gen. Grant ex-
poets to stay at the house Of Mr.. Fish OF his
next visit 10 New York is equivalent TO or a
sure forerunner of such an in vitation remains
to be seen.

a detac hment Of the original committee having
in charge the arrangements for the approach.
ing inauguration of General Grant. the Presi.
dent elect, called upon the Secretary of the
Treasury with reference TO the use Of the new
north wing of the Treasury building for the
grand bail, which IL Is proposed 10 have In
honor of the occasion. The Secretary referred
them to President johnson. The committee
express the belief that the use of the building
will be granted them. The position OF things
Is; however, good deal complicated by the
reference of the question 10 the President, in
view OF the relations of General Grant to that
functIonaIy, and under the circumstances
Gen. Grant may decline to attend.
The RECEPTION or GENERAL AND Mrs.
GRANT, Satu day afternoon, was crowded as
usual. General Grant and lady were assisted
by Miss Phelp and Miss Stiilman. Mrs. Grant
wore gros grain silk, with long train. trim.
med with narrow folds Of satin and heavy
elk fringe, shade lighter than the ma teriaI OF

In plain style, with no ornaments whatever.
