House Of REPRESENTATIVES,.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The galleries were
crowded this morning in anticipation of the
ceremony of presenting Carpenters painting
of President Lincoln reading his emancipation
proclamation to the cabinet. The painting,
screened by the national flag was hung behind
the Speakers chair.
Immediately after reading the journal a reso-
luton was adopted granting the privilege of
the floor during the presentation ceremonies to
families of members of President Lincoln's
cabinet at the time of the proclamation.
The House then went into committee of tt .
whole, Mr.. Blackburn in the chair, on the mil
itary academy appropriation bill.
Soon after the committee arose the Senate
and House met in joint convention and receiv-
eel Carpenters painting of the signing of the
emancipation proclamation Mr.. Garfield
made the presentation speech. The presenta-
tion ceremonies were closed with an eloquent
speech by Mr.. Stephens.
Dir. Garfield in the course of his remarks
said: To-day we place upon our walls this
beautiful tablet, which commentaries the third
great act in the history of America, the fulfill
ment of the promise of the Declaration. Con-
corning the causes which led to that act, the
motives which inspired it, the necessities which
compelled it, and the consequences which fol-

BRITISH GRAIN TR4IDE.
The Indications on the Whole. Favorabl
Firm Prices for Wheat.

LONDON, Feb. 12.-The MarE Lane Er
press says: Supplies of English wheat have
been very limited both in the country and at
Mark Lane. At no corresponding period
within the past ten years have sales at the
principal markets been SO light as those for
the week ending Feb. I'd. The imports of
foreign wheat into London were materially
increased by arrivals from Peyel, shipments
from that port not having been interrupted
by ice to Jan. 31st. Germany has also furn-
ished fair proportion of supplies, but the
Indian arrivals have decreased some. and the
inquiry for this class of wheat has shown
signs of tagging since the market was well
supplied with American and Russian An
important movement as regards the grain
trade is the raising of the blockade and re-
opening of Black Sea ports. IF the recent
advises are to be credited the accumulation
of grain in Odessa alone amounts to some
thing like $4,000 quarters, while at Nicolaieff
the stocks are said to exceed $4,000
quarters, SO that should America and
Germany continue to export freely, our
imports during the spring will probably be
very heavy. There is no doubt that a con-
siderable portion of the grain accumulated
i'll southern Russian ports consists of maize,
but of whatever description there is no doubt
that the holders are most anxious to get it
OH their hands, as it is calculated that the
loss to commerce in Odessa alone by the
blockade of the Black Sea has been 100000
GOO to 8O,OOO,O0O roubles. With such large
foreign supplies i'll prospective it can hardly
be wondered at that prices are weaker and,
apart from political influence, as far as can
be seen appearances seem to point to an
ultimate if not immediate decline. Prices
will probably not vary much for some weeks
for millers who as a rule are holding little
or no stock. will have to supply their wants
as they have been doing of late
and at about the same currencies, as
depressed values must follow actual arrivals
and not anticipated shipments. The re-
quirements of the country must inevitably
be large between this and next harvest, as
the home crop of 1877 was unusually def
Gent and the stocks of English wheat in far
mers' hands have undergone considerable
depletion. revival in the country demand
should take place shortly as it is now some
weeks since country millers bought with
freedom. The floating cargo trade for wheat
opened quiet, but towards the close of the
week prices improved six pence per quarter.
Owing to the political excitement maize is
dull, without quotable change, and barley is
neglected.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE letter adj
dressed by the President to Attorney General
Devans III relation to the conviction of Gen.
Anderson and read to that officer yesterday.
was not intended for immediate publication.
The fact that he had written such letter
was made through Senator to whom the
President in conversation communicated the
information. Although the full text of the
letter cannot be obtained at this time, it is
safe to say it is comparatively brief, and is
somewhat in the spirit of the telegram adj
dressed to Gen. Anderson the 18th inst. by
Secretary Sherman, Senator Matthews. and
Representatives Garfield, Hale and White
The President is of opinion that the pros
ecution against Gen. Anderson is solely
political; that it is not countenanced by the
best men of Louisiana, and therefore is con-
trary to their calm Judgment; that the pro-
ceedings were i'll the interest of those per-
sons who strive to antagonize the two parties
in that State rather than to harmonize them;
that SO far from receiving the approbbtion
of the country the act will be condemned by
right thinking and patriotic men everywhere
when they become acquainted with the cir
cumstances attending the prosecution. As
grave constitutional questions may be in
volved and i'll which the general government
may perhaps have right to interfere. the
President submits the subject to the attorney
general for consideration.

HO1tOrS to the Dead.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-At the cabinet $685.
sion to-day the principal topics talked about
were Louisiana affairs and the deaths of
ex-Secretaries Conrad and Welles. The ac-
ton taken in regard to the deaths of these
distinguished citizens is shown in the orders
from the departments over which they at one
time presided. Nothing new was presented
with reference to Louisiana beyond what has
already been mentioned as the substance of
the Presidents views on the situation.
The Secretary of the navy has issued gem
eral order announcing the death of Hon.
Gideon Welles and reciting the various dis
tinguished positions held by that gentleman
in the public service, including the office of
secretary of the navy. The navy depart
ment will be draped in mourning until after
the funeral and public business of that de-
partment will be suspended on the day of
the funeral. Similar action will be taken by
the war department in respect to the mem
DRY of ex-Secretary of War Conrad.

WASHINGTON. Feb 12.-The bill to remove
all restrictions now existing in regard to the
enlistment of colored citizens i'll any arm of
the United States army, as reported by Sen
ator Burnside from the Senate military
committee to-day, is amended so as to read
as follows: Be it enacted, ETC., that sec
tions 11O4 and 11O8 of the revised statutes
be and the same are hereby repealed.
Sec. 2. That nothing in the above act
shall be SO construed that the 9th and 10th
cavalry, oath and 25th infantry are not a
part of the United States army.
Gen Burnside's written report, accompany
ing the bill, states merely that its object is
to do away with the obligation to fill the
above regiments with colored men and re-
move the restrictions to enlistment OF
colored men in other regiments of the
| service.

A Big Blaze Baked,

AS officer H. N. Close was patroling the
street last evening at about 6:3O o'clock,
he noticed brilliant light in one of the
windows of the third story of McQuillen's
block. The intensity of the light portended
something more than necessary illumlna-
ton of an apartment and the officer rushed
upstairs and found in one of the rooms a fire
raging among quanty of waste paper and
an inebriated man struggling Intellectually
with the flames. The officer at one assisted
the scared and bewildered tenant with sun
dry pals of water in extinguishing the
flames, and thus prevented what might have
been serious conhagration.
