 Important Army Legislation.
 WASHINGTON, April 7-The passage ot the Army Appropriation bill with com pulsOry retirement clause, by so large majority ensures it's passage by the Senate. It IS the most important legis- latiOn for the army since the reoganizs- tion in 1860. There will be 42 officers. nearly all above the rank of Major, re- tired at lonce. A larger part will be from staff duty, but every regiment in line will be affected bre or less. Next year the compulsory retirements will be about 20 and the following year about the same. Sheridan does not favor his exception, as he is only 55 years old, and has, therefore, an expectation of seven years ID command of the army. Gen. Hancock is 5S, and unless Sheridan dies, he can have no expectation of command ing as General in Chiet Gen. Ingalls,, just made Quartermaster General, will retire ct once, as will Colonel Ekin sf of the same corps. Petitions signed by oyer 1900 officers have been filed for presentation to the Senate as soon as the bill comes up, asking for the reten- tion of the compulsory retiremet clause.
 Democrats satirded
 WASHINGTON, D. C., April 1-There will be no attempt to overrule the Pres ident's veto of the Chinese bill, and it is not at all probable that any modified bill will be passed. Democratic members are entirely satisfied to let the onus of defeating the anti-Chinese Legislation rest upon the President and there are not enough Republicans favorable to the ideas of the vetoed bill to bring a new bIll to vote. General ROsecrans claims that the veto assures the Democrats control of the next House.
