WASHINGTON.
Army BiII-San Domingo Treaty
The Indians Restless.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-The President in a
conversation. having read Senator Wilson
army bill, expressed his appreciation of It in
most particulars. He thought the grade OF
Lieutenant General should be made perma-
nent, and is also in favor of raising all Chiefs
of staff to the grade of Brigadier General.
II appears that Logan's bill, nothwithstand-
ing II does away with several hundred officers,
the increased pay granted the remainder will
amount to considerably more than the ex-
pense Of the army on its present footing.
Senator Summers remarks in executive SEES
sion, yesterday, were in ridicule of the inhab-
itants of San Domingo.
Senator Morton favored the treaty, and
spoke several hours, taking the broad ground
of state policy. His remarks embraced LOOK
at the immense territorial and geographical
value of the island. He pictured the prospec-
tive value Of the island, should il become
portion of the United States.
Just before adjourning, Senator Schurz OBJ
tanned the floor, and will speak on Monday
against the treaty. Although the time for the
ratification expires on Monday, it is under
stood that brief extension can be obtained
The Injunction Of secresy was removed from
Summers and Morton's speeches, to allow pub
LEGATION. M ~
A conference lately held by the House Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs with Secretary Robe
son has developed the fact that our squad
ron is the weakest and most ineffective now
represented in Cuban waters. At the earnest
solicitation Of the Committee, Secretary Robe
son has consented to order reinforcements TO
our squadron. and three or four additional
vessels will be at once ordered to report to Ad-
miral Poore.
General w. B. Hazen has arrived here from
the Indian country. He reports the savages
very restless, and thinks the only way to keep
them quiet is strong military force to compel
them to go on their reservations. where the
Quaker influence would be of great assistance.
Quite sensation was created by the intima-
ton that in case the requisite two-thirds pre-
scribed for the ratification Of the treaty be
found wanting. the friends of San Domingo
annexation will attempt to secure the terri
tory another way. When Texas was added to
the United States 1t was not done by two
thirds vote Of the Senate. but by Joint resolu-
ton of both Houses. The President and
friends of San Domingo annexation prefer to
adopt the same plan now should the Senate
fail to ratify. 1t is understood that joint
resolution Of this kind would only require
majority vote, while treaty ratification re-
auires -thirds-at least this is the view
held By the President and other friends of San
Domingo acquisition,

CLEAR oUn CAMPS.

Jefferson has said that war was
preferable to unresisted depreciation,
and so say we. Materially, we are
ruined: and if ever there was an epoch
in history when a free people were so
despotically damned by dominant
power, we have never been able to dis
cover il. The Inquisition, with their
ihumb-screws and rack; the despotic
knou,; the bastinado, of Turkish crea-
ton; the garote, or any Of the appli-
ances that have been the invention of a
despotic past, would be but feeble repre-
sentatiyes Of the hate and passion of our
Washington masters And do Southern
people imagine, for moment, that in
bending the knee to our masters the yoke
will be lighter2 Far from it. A bold
front to the enemy; political destruction

a less losing business than unresisted

THE OUTRAGE OF THE SEVERN.

In the good old days of pure Democ-
racy, when, without an armed host or
an iron-clad armada, the great jackson
could defy the powers of the Old World,
il was glorious TO feel that one was
fledged in this republic. But now the
reverse is the rule; Sheridan murders
the Indians, the Severn searches a
Danish schooner-acting under orders
from Washington--and the Alabama
claims are not mooted The search of a
Danish schooner is an outrage for which
there can be no excuse, unless it is that
strong desire, so patent to the spirit of
the Radical powers that be, to play the
bully. When apprehensive of collision
we are an effete sister State. As an ex-
change remarks, had the vessel been
French or English no search would have
been attempted tits nothing more than
can be expected from party already
lost TO all sense of honor and regardless
of the decent conventionaliries of life
much less having an appreciation OF IN
ternational courtesy
