The senate military committee has under
consideration the clause in the army bill
passed at the first session of the forty fifth
congress, which prohibits the appointment,
or promotion of officers of the army aboYe
the rank of first lieutenant, until congress-
acts upon the report to be submitted by
the Burnside military commission. The
president and secretary of war, it will be
remembered, %concurred in the opinion OF
the judge advocate general that the report
of the commission was limited by law to
the forty fifth congress, and that the army
bill, for 1S7S-lS79 having failed of action the
clause is of no force. Acting on this belief
the president has sent to the senate the
names of q number of officers to be pro
NOTED to various grades of the rank Of
captain and above. The senate committee
is not Of the opinion that the position taken
by the president is correct and will withhold
action on the nominations until the ques.
ton can be decided whether the failure of
the army bill, which is also provided that
no promotions should take place. is not
in effect at the present time.

General Sherman is noted for original
ideas. Every little while he lets loose one
which nobody else ever thought of. His
latest is contained in his response to Score
tary Schur., who sent him o warning to
watch out for Sitting Bull. The general
dismisses the subject with these words:
Why does the honorable secretary Of the
Interior send this here? Does he rant VI
to fight Sitting Bull, or does he want the
government to feed him and his $500 PEG.
pie? Sitting Bull is an Euglisb subject,
and if he crosses the line it is an armed in.
vasion of the United States, for which Great
Britain should be held responsible. I eug.
gest that the secretary of the interior send
his message to the state department.

Senator Blaine's latest suggestion is that,
if the democrats are going to spend so much
time in caucuses. and perfect their legisla-
ton in that way, and, as he understood it,
compel every member Of the democratic

they had better send their bills directly
from the democratic caucus to the presi.
dent, without waiting for the formality Of
passing them through the senate and house.
