what Eeet says Auuut the OSNOa
Business.
Col. Leet was examined by the Senate
Committee in New York on Monday. His
testimony is thus given
Geo. X. Leet testified that he came here
in the Spring of 1869, and has been engage
ed in the general order business the past
nineteen months. He began the business
by partnership with Bixby, through an
Arrangement engineered by Mr.. Lindsay,
confidential adviser of Mr.. Grinnell, by
which he (Leet) received SIS 900 per year of
the profits, because he enabled Bixby to
get the business through his influence with
Grinnell. In answer to q question as to
what induced Grinnell to give him the
business, Leet said he was introduced to
Grinnell by letter from President Grant
as follows:
Executive Mansion, Washington, March
10th, 1S69.-M. H. Grinnell-Dear Sir
This will introduce to you Col. G.. X. Leet,
who served under me from early in the
war to the present day-from the fall of
Vicksburg forward as staff officer. he is
n business man of unquestiOned integrity.
His experience before the war fits him for
business of almost any kind. He now pro-
poses to resign from the army to engage in
private life, and j cheerfully recommend
him as possessing all the qualities neces-
sary to inspire confidence.
Yours truly, L. s. GRANT.
Col. Leet continued.-Thep profits annu-
ally from the general order business
amounts to from S, 900 to $1,000. He re-
signed from the army February, 1870.
When the President gave him the letter to
Grinnell he did not tell him he was going
to apply for the general order business,
Colonel Leet, in reply to question by
Senator Pratt, said: II do not see how the
President could know had an interest in
the general order business until gave my
testimony last spring. 1 never spoke to
him on the subject. General Porter stated
to me that the President regretted / had
entered into an arrangement with Bixby.
MY impression is that the reason of his
disapproval was the bringing of his name
and those around him into connection with
noe and these New York matters. 1 have
no objection whatever to submitting my
books to examination by any expert the
committee may appoint Colonel Leet

President Thiers,s Speech.

PARIS, Jan. 21.-President Theirs yes
terday, in reply to a deputation of the AS
sembly which called upon him to notify
him of the refusal of that body to accept
his resignation, said he was worn out and
discouraged. He could not change his
opinions, and he believed that conflicts
similar to the present one were likely to
occur between the legislative and execu-
tive departments when the military and
educational bills came before the Assembly.
Theirs further said that, while for the pres
ent he consented to withdraw his resigna-
ton, the end was inevitable, and, sooner
or later, he would be compelled to retire
from the presidency.
WHAT THE ARMY WANTS.
Marshal Mcmahon also called upon
Theirs yesterday, and appealed to him, on
behalf of the army, to withdraw his resig-
nation. The Marshal said the army would
obey the orders of the Assembly, but would
not be controlled by dictatorship, which
was likely to follow the unconditional re-
tirement of the President.
The members of the ministry, at the
earnest solicitations of Theirs, have re.
sumed their portfolios.
kilograms have been received from sew
eral foreign governments congratulating
1hierS upon his cOntin uance as chief o.
the executive power.
THEIRS TO STOP TALKING.
The French journals have for sometim,
past expressed disapproval of the constan
participation of the President in the dis
cussions of the legislative body. This com
plant has been earnestly discussed in tn,
ministry, which has now decided to max,
a proposition to the Assembly that Thier
shall address it only on important Oeca
sions, for which purpose pending debate
shall at any time be adjourned.
