THE SENATE PASSES THE GRANT BILL.
lBY TELEGRAPH To TIE TRTBUNE.l

lBN TELEGRAPH 10 Ihb lhIbINE'l
WASHINGTON Feb. 23.--Thc debate in the Senate
upon the bill to place General Grant on tie retired
list of the Army was less exciting than eX-
pected. Senator Bayards substitute to pension all
ex-Presidents was discussed at length, but
found few supporters. The idea that the homer was
not intended to be conferred upon General Grant
an President but for the single fact that lie led
the armies which whipped the South back INTO the
Union was dwet upon by the supporters of the bill
Nevertheless several ex-COnfederates were found
20 approve it, The four cX-Confederates who voted
for the bill were Brown, OF Georgia, Call Of Florida
Jones, of Florida, and Ransom of North Carolina ;
ono other Democrat, Senator Davis, of West Vir-
gna. also voted for it.
By many the action of these Democratic Senate rs
is aScribed to desire TO prevent The Republicans
from making party capital 10y showing that the ex-
Confederates we're opposing Grant III body. Some
think they ii i'll sign Of an increased good
feeling between the North and the South of which.
they assert there have been striking evidences also
on the Republican, side. For example, when the
Ingalls, resolution sought to he amended so as
10 make it include soldiers Of the Mexican War who
had lost their right TO pensions 10y of subse-
uuent participation in the Rebellion, several Re
publican Senators declared their readiness 10 sup
port such a measure when ii should come in
dependent proposition. Again to-day when bill
was taken up providing for the removal OF
the disabilities OF an ex-Rebel officer in
order that he might be appointed a surgeon In the
United states Army, two or three Repu Olicans OBJ
jccted TO the measure Oh the ground that it pro-
Yldcd for only orc cX-COnfcderate officer, and il
Was returned 10 the committed from which il came
with the suggestion that general bill TO the same
puTpOrt be- brOugh4 in.
be prediction is made by some members OF tho
House that the Grant till will excite an earnest de-
bate there and that IFS passage VIII not be 80 easy

AN ARMY APPOINTMENT CRITICISED.
lBr TELEGRAPH TO TIE TsIBONE.l


WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.--The nomination of Will
lam T. Tucker r., Of Illinois, Senator Logan's sor-
in-law to be Major and PaymasteT in the Army,
has evoked mach criticism. 1t has not been an un-
common practice since the beginning of President
Grants administration for Presidents to appoint
paymastcrs from civil life blt Mr. Tucker IS one OF
the very few men appointed from civil life who
have seen no military service He is young
man under thirty years of age, and, Army officers
declare, without military experience ol any KIND.
OF the Twenty-Five payma,tcrs appointed from the
beginning of President Grants administration to
the date of the issue Of the last Army Register only
three of them were men who had not seen service
either as regulars volunteers, and one of these
Mr. rSninen had been CLERK in the Army and so had
some knowledge of military matters. With these
exceptions the Paymasters who have been appointed
from civil life during the time mentioned have been
men who had served in the war for the Union,
This appointment, carrying with it the rank of
Major, will pat Mr.. Tucker the heads of 120
CAPTAINS of cavalry, 60 captains of artillery and
go captains of infantry-Or in all 13O officers
many of whom fought the battleields of the late
war and most of whom have probably been twenty

MORE MONEY NEEDED FOR CENSUS WORK.
IELEGEA AEm IME TRInrNEL


WASHINGTON, Feb 23.-It is understood that SUI
pcrintcndent Seaton, Of tie Census Bureau. is con-
sidcrably disturbed by the prospect that it may be
necessary to call upon Congress at early day for
more money in order TO complete the census work.
When the estimate of $40, 600 was sent to Con-
gress at the beginning of the session. it based
on the supp jsti0n that no more money would he
required to complete the census and when the bill
was under discussion in the House, Chairman His
cock said that tue understanding Of the Appro-
pTiations Committee. Some facts which have re-
Gently come to the knowledge of members of the
House and others tend to show that this under
standing was based upon erroneous data When
the Superintendent had provided for the arrearages
due volunteer clerks and other employees, and had
paid other outstanding bills, which were sent IN as
soon as the holders knew that there was money 10
pay them he found that instead OF balance oi
5000. OOO he bal remaining to complete the work
less than $4,000. and this small sum has a,ready
dwindl,d 10 about 100000. while the daily cN-
pcnse of the office with the reduced force now en-
ployed including special agents, etc. are ~ 900 TO
II 300 Further reductions of force are IN contel-
plation and Will soon be made but II Is already
plain that another considerable appropriation must
be made or some parts of the work Of the census
must be practically suspended.
