Some gentlemen who have been travelling
in Tennessee during the last three month:
have arrived 10 Washington, and give a most
emphatic contradiction to maoy Of the storie:
about outrages 10 that State. They say in
some instances they haye trivial foundation, but
are magnifed almost beyond belief by the time
they reach Washington: and they add that
these are but part OF Il scheme gotten up by
the opponents OF the present State officers in
Tennessee to induce Congress to turn the lat
ter out.

Delegations from Georgin aud Teuuessee are
waiting upon the President, almost every day,
urging him to take sides with their different
factions. They, generally, OF course, think
that the President is rather mon committal''

their different opinions. A Radical delegation
waited upon the President yesterday, to pro
cure the removal from employment Of workmeu
at the Navy Yard at Washington and the
Naval Academy at Annapolis, aud to have
appointed in their places workmeu who say
they are Radicals.

THuRsDAY. MARCH II, 1870

A delegation Of twenty of the Society OF
Friends, from New York, Philadelphia, Balti
more and Richmond, Indiana, headed by Su
periutendent 8. NJ. Janney, Of the Northern
SUPPLEMENTARY, called upon the President
Yesterday, and we're cordially received by hlm.
They urged upon him to pursue a peace policy
towards the Indians. The President said
their policy was the one which he had Ions
since approved, and he should continue to ad'
vocste their claims. Whatever aid he coult
extend, either officially or personally, they
could always regard him as a friend OF tht
society. He valued the motives which promp'
ted their visit to Washington, and trusted the
mission would be successful.
It is said that another large delegation Of
Friends, who represent societies in severa
States, have arrived in Washington to remon'
strate With tho President and Gen. Sherman
against Gen. Sheridan being allowed to remain
a day longer in command OF the Indian country.
They complain very earnestly against his con
duct in the attack on the Piegans, and ask
that the opposite policy may be pursued
against the Indian tribes. They have drawn
up q plan for the transfer Of the Indians tc
reservations, with the purpose OF amelloratlng
their condition by the Introduction Of thu
proper elements OF civilization. But in theil
contest against Sheridan they appear 10 b'
determined toaccomplish something.

The Richmond Wing says the fact should
not be lost sight of that the comparative pro-
fit ofwheat growing in Virginia and the North.
west Is in favor of the former as the price de.
clines. Putting the average cost Of transporta
ton to market from Virginia at fifteen cents
per bushel, and from Missouri and Iowa at fifty
cents, it is easy to sec that the proportionate
margin Of profit Increases in favor of Virginia
as the reduction in price takes place.

hold their anniversaries there To which
the Washington Republican replies that it
would bs pleased to be spared, even in Lent,
from the infections Of these Albany aud SYRIA

and announcement and unpleasant location.
have combined to keep religious, benevolent
and political societies. from coming annually,
Washington has not been neglected in vain.
