WASHINGTON, March I3.-The remov.
al of Sumner from the craftsmanship OF
committee on foreign relations con.
tinues the exciting topic of converse
ton in all political circles, and its pro.
| bable effect upon the future of the re-
publican party, and the denomination
of Grant is freely discussed. All repub-
licans except few of Summers person
al enemies in the Senate agree that the
occurrence is very damaging to the
party and may prove disastrous-in
| short that it was gross political blum
der. The democrats are highly elated
about the affair. They sag the renonli-
nation of Grant is inevitable, because
| there is no man of sufficient strength to
oppose him; but that his defeat will
follow as a necessary result of dissen-
sions Occasioned among the republi-
cans. Many leading republicans, on
the other hand, assert that Grants re-
nomination is now out of question, and
that it is necessary to begin to look
about for a more available candidate, if
the party is to be saved from defeat.
They argue that the entire body of New
England republicans will be hostile to
him on account of Summers removal,
and that it has alienated also all origi-
nal anti-slavery men throughout the
country, who have always formed an
active working element of the republi-
can party. There is already much can
wasting relative to the merits and popu-
larity of many prominent public men,
with view to their possibly candidacy
for the republican nomination. Among
other names, those of Colfax, Blaine,
Sumner, Logan, Schenck, and Cox, are
chiefly mentioned.

BERLIN, Mar. l3.-Emperor William
is i'll at Amiens, but will leave for this
will be direct, the condition of the EN-

1t is announced that the 7th and 18th
Prussian corps of Wurtemburgers will
form an army for the occupation of that
portion of France TO be held by the |
Germans until the condition of the |
treaty of peace are fulfilled.
A Paris letter and specials state that |
there is no prospect of peace in France, |
that the whole country is in such a con- |
dition and the people so ignorant, |
wrathy and enraged, that no form of
government can be established. The |
capital is crowded with 9 class of DEM
agogues, and laborers and mechanics |
are made the victims. A number of
Frenchmen think that the country viii |
not be what it has been for years, that /
it must ungdero much more trial and
suffering before its prosperity can be
renewed.
