WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.--If the bill which
has been favorably reported from the COM
mittee ON military affairs of the two houses
of Congress, restoring Gen. William $.
R0secranS to the army and placing him on
the retired list as brigadier- general, is
passed, it will tax the charity of the friends
of the late General Grant to the fullest linn
it. There are many men in Congress now
who were here five years ago, when Gen.
Rosecrans made his uDprovoked and bitter
attack upon General Grant while bill,
restoring to the army and placing on
the retired list the hero of
AppOmattOx was under consideration.
General Rosecrans contendcd that there
was no law or precedent for restoring a
name to the rolls of the army after it had
been stricken offduring peace. and that there
were no demands made by justice or cour-
tesy, or the American idea of hero worship.
which would justify the restoration of
man to the army who had subsequently
held federal offices, such as General Grant
had been honored with. He ridiculed tho
idea that an impoverished financial
condition of the Grant family jus
titled Congress in restoring General
Grants name to tie army rolls,e and
in this connection alluded TO the failure of
Grant & Wards bank as that great con-
fidence mill" From General Rosecrans's
speech the following extract is taken:
''It is not my intention TO recount any of
the historical reasons why think Grants
military reputation has been exaggerated
and misrepresented under the eXigencies of
party interest and power. and can only sug-
gest that when true history comes TO bo
written it will be pared down to very diff
ferent dimensions. 1t was the inter
est of a great political party of
appear as large and important as
possible, for he was their servant and tool
to secure power"
Further on in General Rosecrans's speech
he charged General Grant with having die
tated the first two volumes of Badeau's
"Life of Grant," declaring that it was un-
worthy and misleading; that General Grant
had made false military records and tha
he was party to scheme which robbed

Expectation that His Coming Speech Will BE
Sensational in Character.
LONDON, Jan. 13.-It is regarded as al
most absolutely certain that Prince Bis
marck will, in the speech which he is to
deliver in the Reichstag on Tuesday, refer
to the Morier and Gefficken incidents. but
it is not believed that he will reopen those
questions, unless he is in possession of more
and stronger evidence of the alleged plot
against himself in which the British en-
bassadOr to Russia and the Professor are
made to figure as the chief conspiratOrs,
than has yet been brought forward. Still,
the Chancellor's undoubted and scarcely
concealed hatred of England and every
thing English may lead him to pursue
these already much-persecuted men, to the
end that if by SO doing, he can make it
appear that there really was plot to rob
him of the credit, which has hitherto been
his, of having formulated and carried out
the scheme Of establishing the German en-
pire.
That the Chancellor will devote a consid-
erable part of his address to bitter refer
ences to the troubles in Samoa is generally
conceded. The popular belief in Germany
is very Strong tnab the Amerlcans Wcie
solely responsible for the German reverses
in Samoa and this belief is but the refec-
ton of official conviction.
Professor Gefficken has maintained the
utmost reserve since his release, and his
friends are unanimous in the opinion that
no good results could follow his furthcr
pursuit of the subject which involved his
incarceration and permanent injury to his
health.
The whole Liberal press protests against
the action of the North German Gazette III
utilizing the letter written by the late En-
perOr Frederick to Prince Bismarck on the
occasion of the jubilee of the latter's enter
ing the army. The Vossische Zeitung says:
This personal mark of attention to the
Chancellor, especially when taken in con-
junction with the sOlicitude of the COM
mander-in-ch for the army, is anything
but refutation of the political creed laid
down by Frederick in his diary and In his
governmental actions"

parliamentary paper is issued to-day,
publishing as much as is thought advisable
of the correspondence relating to the Sack
vile matter. The interesting fact is that
Sackville, doubtless because of his respect
able relations, isn't in the least censured by
his goyernment-a fact which makes little
difference since his country so unanimous
ly pronounced him an ass. In his letter,
Sackville defends himself in weak kind of
a way, as having thought his letter private
one, and as having done what he had right
10 do. He also accused Mr.. Bayard of
unfairneSs, and declares that he did not at
tempt to do away with the effect of the let
ter, through the channel which gave it pub
to- contradict what newspaper reporters
said would only get him into disagreeable
and unseemly controversy. Mr.. Phelps
figures in the light of peacemaker, eX-
pressing grief and sorrow all around, dilat-
ing at rather unnecessary length upon the
Irish vote and the struggle for its posses
sion, and practically excusing Mr.. Cleve-
land to Lord Salisbury on the ground that
he had to do so to keep the Irishmen from
abandoning him, and so forth.

and Salisbury, instead of realizing that one
is fool and the other, at best, a FOOLS de-
fender, are inclined to take high and
mighty tone, half pugnacious and half of
injured innocence. Lord Salisbury declines
to accept the principle that the acceptance
or retention of q minister was question
solely to be determined by the government
to which he was credited, either with or
without the assignment of reason, and in
support of his opinion quotes Lord Palmer

denounced the church and its followers
and the meeting was fast drifting into the
advocacy of atheism when the chairman
