A Cincinnati Commercial special
speaks as follows: 1t is currently re-
ported, and pretty well ascertained to be
true, that President johnson will, i'm
mediately after his term of office ceases,
go to Europe for the purpose of nago-
tiating the bonds of the Memphis, FL
Paso and Pacific Railroad Company, If
that company should get its joint reso-
lu,ion through the Senate, now on its ia
BILE, giving it the right of way through
the public land, from Ell Paso to the
Pacific. The resolution gives to the
company perpetual right of way
through the Territories also incor-
porates it. On it's face it appears to be
very simple, but it gives the most valuable
franchise which, as yet, he's been asked
of Congress. The company can, Id all
time, forbid any other company from
constructing road from 81 Paso to the
Pacific, on the thirty-secontl parallel.
The franchise will be worth five or ten
millions of dollars. Mr.. JohnNon, they
propose, shall become it's Presto ent.

WASHTNGTONl

NEW YORK, March 1.-The Herald
says that General Van Allen has arrived
in Washington. He had conversation
with Grant on Cuban affairs. General
Van Allen was the bearer of important
documents from the revoutionists, and
was charged with the task of laying the
true state of affsira before Congress and
the President elect. General Grant has
expressed himself strongly in favor Of
recognizing Cuban independence, and
says that Spain did us serious wrong
during the war by protecting and hsr-
boring rebel privateers and blockade run
ners.
a Washington dispatch states that at
meeting of the members elect from
Ohio, they agreed to support Mr.. Blaine
for Speaker, and will present the name
of E. R. Eckley, of Ohio, in caucus, for
Clerk.
The Herald gives the following account
of visit of Senator Stewart to General
Grant:
Senator Stewart said he came to know
how General Grant stood on the Consti.
tutional amendment, giving universal
suffrage North and South.
Gen. Grant replied he understood the
amendment, and hoped the States would
ratify it. He believed that the Republi-
can party were bound to see this conclu.
sion realized. This statement he desired
all the gentlemen present to understand
was not for their private information
alone, but for the whole country to hear.
Senator Wilson, on hearing this an
nouncement, put his hat on and went off
in great humor, saying at last he was
satisfied with General Grant.

A Card from Colonel John Brown
low.

We give place this evening to the
card of Colonel John Brownlow that we
may reply to illusions therein made, so
far as they refer to the editor of this pa
per. We would be the last, we hope, in
ipjuring the reputation of any gentleman,
unwittingly, or in wrongful, malicious
spirit. And, so far as denial will
benefit the gentleman, he has and shall
have the benefit of our columns. But, in
our opinion, o simple denial on his
part will not be sufficient to remove the
spots of foul dishonor cast upon his
name--not by dame Tumor, as he al
leges--but by the sworn evidence OF
witness yet unimpeached, and upon the
information of gentlemen who are ready
and can be sworn as to the truth of the
allegation made by the LEDGER. Col.
Browhlow in his card states that while
we we're in Nashville we stated our ILL.,
formation was mere rumor as to the
charges made in the LEDGER against the
BrownloNs.
The information is false, if it did pur-
port to cope from Democratic sources.
Our simple statement to every one who
questionedNs as to what Information we
had on the Auilt of these parties was
that we stood ready to prove the charges
made in the UEDaER, to any disinterested
community; that the Brownlows had re-
ceived portion Of this fund, not by
our own evidence, but by the evidence of
others, who we're willing to swear to the
charges preferred. This is not mere
rumor, as th5 gentleman's Democratic in
formation gdes. The definition of rumor
is that it is a current story passing from
one person to another withoutany known
authority for the truth of it. We state
that we could prove that the Brownlows
received their share Of the School Fund,
and stand ready with our witnesses to
come into court.
