THIRD TERM MOVEMENTS.
GRANT CONCENTRATING THE NAVY FOR PossIBLE
USE IN CUBAN WATERS.

Washington Special to the New York Herald.
October ISL
In connection with the rumor so freely cir
culated lately that Gen. Grant intends Wig
orous policy with reference to the belligerent
rights Of the Cubans, the quiet and formidable
concentration of so many men-of war on the
North Atlantic station is exciting keen COM
ment. The fleet now comprises the following
vessels: Worcester, flagship; Plymouth, Cam
andaigua Ordered out of commission, but can
be ready for sea again in two weeks), at Nor
folk; Ossipee, Sbawmut. Pinta-all wooden
ships, and the following iron clads, all Of
which can be sent to ssa in twenty four hours:
Dictator, Canonicus (both in commission and
ready for sea), Mahopac, Manhattan and Sau-
gus, in commission at ensacola.
In addition to these the Vandalia, Adams,
Alliance, Ranger, Huron, Essex, Enterprise
and Marion are fitting for sea and will be
ready in q short time. Ali of these will be
attached to the North Atlantic station, except
the latter, which will go to the European
squadron. But on her arrival both the Con.
gress and Juniata will return home and join
the North Atlantic. The MontauF, ironclad,
is at Norfolk, and can be sent to sea in q
week. The Powtatan is available, as are
also the Swatara, Alert, Gettysburg, Talla-
poosa, Dispatch. and the Fortune, Nina.
Speedwell and Triana-the last four being Of
the same class as the unfortunate Polaris,
which was formerly the May and each
carry two guns.
The M,antonomoh, four guns, which was
the monitor sent to Russia in 1857, under
command of the present Commodore John G.
Beaumont, is nearly completed at Chester,
and can be sent to sea in six weeks in an emer-
gency. Besides all these it is shrewdly sus-
pected that the placing of the Wabash at Bos-
L. N,yo a. W. -,
ing ships, and the Minnesota as flagship to
Vice Admiral Rowan at New York, is q plan
to have these huge vessels ready for some out
break. for it is we'll known that they are 50
differed and fitted as to be able to go to sea
at days notice.
The new sloop of war, Trenton, of $500
tons and carrying seventeen guns, will be
ready in about four months, and the Hartford
has just arrived at New York from the Asiatic
feet. Prominent officers have carefully CON-
sidered these points, and several confidently
assert that an important movement 10 Cuban
affairs will take place at an early day after the
assembling OF Congress.

THE PRESIDENTS THANKSGIVING PROCLAMA-
TON.

WASHINGTON, Oct 27-In accordance with
practice at once wise and beautiful, we have
been accustomed as the year Is drawing to
close to devote an occasion to humble ex-
preston of our thanks to Almighty God for
the ceaseless and distinguished benefits be-
slowed upon Us as nation, and for his mer-
cies and protection during the closing year.
Amid the rich and free enjoyment of all
our advant. ges We should not forget the
source from whence they are derived. and the
extent of our obligations to the Father Of all
Mercies. We have full reason to renew our
thanks to Almighty God for favors bestowed
upon us during the past year by His con-
tinuing mercy. Civil and religious liberty
have been maintained, peace has reigned
within our borders, labor and enterprise have
produced their merited rewards, and to His
watchful providence we are indebted for Sc
curity from pesnlence and other national
calamity. '@
Apart from the national blessings, each in
dividual among us has occasion TO thought
fully recall and devoutly recognize the favors
and protection which he has enjoyed. Now,
therefore, /, Ulysses s. Grant, President Of
the United States, do recommend that on
Thursday, the 25th day of November, the
people OF the United States, abstaining from
all secular pursuits, from their accustomed
svocations, do assemble in their respective
places Of worship and in such form as may
seem most appropriate in their own
hearts offer to Almighty God their acknow-
Judgments and thanks for all His mercies, and
their humble prayers for continuance of
His Divine favor.
10 witness whereof have herewith set my
hand and caused the seal OF the United
States to be affixed. Done OF the city of
Washington, this 27th day of October, in the
year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred
and seventy five, and Of the Independence of
the United States the one hundredth.

We understand that several public spirited
citizens will soon com mence an active canvass
of the city, for the purpose of interesting our
merchants in the erection of cotton factory
in Dallas. Commerce alone will never make
US great in prosperity and wealth. We must
have manufactures, and the sooner this fact
is i'm oppressed upon the minds of every citizen
of Dallas, the better for the future of the city.

A CABINET Position Won WITH HORSE
TALK.-A Washington special gives the fol-

it over the President for the Secretaryship OF
the Interior. lack says that on the journey
from Pittsburg to Washington the principle
topic of conversation between the President
and himself was horses. When he got the
note from Gen. Babcock, requesting him to
call at the White House, he supposed the
President wanted little more "horse talk, y

The Washington Republican has commenced
the foolish business Of declaring vast Radical
majorities at the November elections. 1t as
serts that Hartranft will be reelected in Penn
sylvania by not less than fifteen thousand ma
jority, and that Massachusetts, will be Repqb-
lican by thirty thousand votes. The Republi-
can predicted that Ohio would give Hayes q
majority of thirty thousand votes over Allen,
and it now does not seem to have the courage
to allude to that State. The predictions for
November are hazardous. November is a
foggy month.-Courier.J Journal

The YIELD OF SUGAR.-Sugar canes yield
very we'll this season in Terrebonne. the
neiehboring parish. We learn that Mr.. Gueno
made trial with IA arpents of good cane and
got 81 hogsheads; Mr.. VIM. Shaffer ground 62
arpents Of inferior stubble and made 80 hogs
heads; Mr.. T. J. DAunis realized AZ hogs
heads from 50 arpents of very inferior stub
Bile. This news from Terreoonne has very
much frightened the hopes and expectations
of Lafourche sugar planters. The weather
now is all that can be desired to bring the
sugar cane to speedy matury; an early freeze
is the only danger left to be dreaded

GRANTS PROGRAMME.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-It is stated
that the President f:lvors the caucus
bill, and threatens if Congress fails in
its duty he will not fail in his. Should
Congress adjourn without acting, it
might be necessary for him to proceed
to greater extremes than the mere sus-
pension of habcas corpus.
The bill referred to is doubtless the
one outlined in the following special to
the st. Louis Republican
The joint committee appointed by the
Senate and House caucuses had long
meeting this evening, and finally
adopted the bill prepared by the sub
committee and already outlined in
these dispatches, which will be reported
to a joint caucus at 10 O'Clock tomorrow
morning. The re-enactment of the
ku-kluN act of 1871, substituting the
words white league for ku-kluX, the
restoration OF the right of suspending
| the writ of habeas corpus and Il compli-
| Gated system of election machinery are
the main features. It provides that
United States supervisors shall be
| appointed by the United States marshals
who are to be present when the votes
are counted and make their own
account, which is to be certified to the
cnlel supervisor OF elections SO tNaC
there shall be two sets of tho reports of
elections. 1t is also provided that the
reconstructed States shall be restricted
and confined in their elections, consti-
tutioiial changes and amendments, ETC.,
to the fundamental conditions and
terms of their rc-admission into the
Union. The idea is to prevent the
imposition of poll-taXos, etc, for the
purpose of depriving the cOlored people
of tho right Of suffrage.
