THE ARMY BILL.
Caucus of Republican Senators.
Opposition to the Bill 10 be Con.
tinued.

WASHINGTON, April ia well attended caucus
of Republican Senators was held this afternoon.
There was general and harmonious interchange of
views concerning the course to be pursued by the
minority of the Senate in regard to the army appro
priation bill. No formal action was taken by the
caucus, but it was agreed that every possible effort
be made to defeat the passage of the bill in its pres.
ent shape. for the reason mainly that the enactment
of the sixth section would, in the opinion of the
minority, prevent the use of posse comitatus on
election days for the execution of civil process of
any and all descriptions issued by the United States
authority Other provisions of the bill were consid-
cred Objectionable, among them the clauses which
propose to prohibit appointments and promotions in
the army until otherwise provided by law, while this
bill holds out inducements for the creation of addi-
tional vacancies by providing that oicers hereafter
retired by of wounds shall be retired upon the
highest ranks respectively held by them in regular or
volunteer service before retirement. 1t was the be.
lief that the expressed purpose OF the provisions is to
pave the way for the appointment of friends of the
dominant party.
Several amendments to the sixth section, OF which
notice had been given in the Senate spoken Of
with favor, especially those submitted by Messrs
Blaine and Paddock, the first providing heavy penal
ties against the presence OF any persons bearing
deadly weapons within mile of any polling place on
federal election day, and the second providing that
the posse comtatus clause of the OF last year is
not to be applicable to troops employed in the pro-
lection of life in States and territories liable to In
dian incursions.
1t probable the Senate debate will last ten days.

GEN. GRANT.
An Improbable Rumor Of a Con-
spiracy to Assassinate Him.
Probability of His Declining a Re
nomination.

CINCINNATI. April ia correspondent of the
Gazette sends this despatch from Carlisle, Kentucky
dated April 8:
secret order is being organized by prominent
Democrats throughout this State. looking to the as
sassinaion of Gen. Grant in the event of his NOM
ination by the Republican party for President. To-
day was shown printed copy of the bylaws OF
this organization, which is something after the Or
der of the Klu Klux Khan, and the sIgners are
pledged to secrecy by oath, under penalty of death.
There are number Of signatures to the paper, en-
bracirg the names of several prominent, wealthy,
and influential Democrats in different portions of
Kentucky, and, am told, the matter has been
working quietly for months past. The gentleman to
whom this precious statement is sent is requested to
"use all diligence in maintaining the utmost secresy
get all the prominent of the party in your coun-
ty to sligo the bylaws and you will be called on in
ten days for its return" My informant refused to
disclose the of any parties connected with the
affair." but said: .sThere are number Of good names
on the paper"
For several weeks past open boasts have been made
that Gen. Grant would never be allowed to take his
seat the event of his election to the presidency
and the above facts prove that such boasts were not
without some foundation.
NEW YORK, April PA Washington special to
the Graphic says gentleman travelling with. Gen.
Grant writes home that the General says he will not
be candidate for President under any circumstan-
ces. He is aware that his name is freely used in
American papers in that connection but not in a way
that he thinks at present ustifes him in making any
public declaration of his intention. When the time
comes, this gentleman believes he will decline in
such way that there will be no mistakinghis mean
ing. The General tells this gentleman that he does
not want to re-enter public life. and that he will de-
cline nomination for any public Office and viii
make his intention fully known upon his return tt
America. At present he does not wish to appear a.
publicly declining that which has not been authora
lively offered.
