Tpon the question Of the scnatorshlp. the

The correspondent Of the New York
Times civcs statement which corIoboratcs
that of the TriIune correspondent. We
copy the following:
Mr.. Brownlow, Jr., speaking Tor the Sen
ter delegation, according to the writer, said
that "hc wished to correct certain misrcp-
reservations which had been made relative
to the position Of the men who supported
Scntcr in the late election, &c. He had
seen il stated that the President intended to
interfere in tie affairs of the State 50 as, In
a measure, 10 change the results Of the late
election. The President gave him the ASST
rance that this was totally erroneous; that
he had no more idea Of interfering IN the
local concerns Of Tennessee than he had III
the local management Of New York. Brown
low then made long speech. the purport
Of which may be readily surnIscd. In re-
srcnec 10 their remarks. Mr.. brown
low and his associates say the Presl-
dent told him that he recognized AIR.
Scntcr rs u Republican. and considered
that the Republicans who voted for him
still belong to the Republican party:
and, in addition, that he would not remove
from Office any Federal official in the state
for having thrown the weight Of his posi-
ton and personal influence against Mr..
stokes. This announcement was extremely
gratifying to Mr.. Scntcr's supporters. and
they appear to he in the best possible spirits
TONIGHT. The President. i'll conclusion. re-
commended them to harmonic and put an
end to thcir difficulties, personal and politl-
cal, by general amnesty
This is all frank and straightforward.
He don't mean TO interfere in these local
Quarrcs. lie won't remove SENTER men.
He is not afraid Of ANDY johnson. lie
would as soon see him elected as any Demo-
craft There is no mistaking such talk as
this. Il will inspire confidence in General
GRANT, md will relieve him from many
Painful hours Of boring from the raycnous
delegations of carpct-baggcrs whose impu-
dcucc and pcrtinacity, if tolerated, arc
enough to pcrsccutc President 10 death.
General GrANT has learned something by
his experience. The proof that lie has will
not be without its good effect. We have not
heard Of any delegation Of ca1pct-bag@crs
vet departing from this city for Wafhing-
ION on account Of the present cXigcncy.
The news that MIR. IIoAE has settled the
question of the iron-clad adversely 10

they consider il past amendment, and that
effort on their part 10 baulk the course Of

Richmond press that McSsrs. WELLS, and
BOND, and HUMPHREYS, and Dudley, and
