Ex-President Johnson’s last acts were the pardon ing of convicted criminals and the killing of just laws. Spangler and Arnold from among the mur derers of Lincoln, the two Lamars (cotton thieves,) Cbas. O. Brockaway (a"New York counterfeiter,) and it is said two leading scoundrels of the New York Whisky Ring (Jacob and Moses Depew,) were among the last objects of his “executive clemency.” All the Appropriation Bills as passed he signed except that for the Indians, but the Bill “to strengthen the public credit” he “pocketed” as hostile to his repudiation views. The XLth Congress closed its sessions at noon, March 4th. The Senate had passed the Public Credit Bill as amended in Joint-Conference; the Legislative Appropriation Bill, the Post Office, Dip lomatic and other Appropriation jlills. The House concurred in the amendments to the Bills restraining National Banks, and allowing of the free importation of naval machinery. A reso lution expressing sympathy both for the Spanish revolutionists and the Cuban insurgents, and au thorizing the President to recognize the latter, was passed. In both branches resolutions highly eulo gistic of the retiring officers were offered by the Democrats and passed unanimously. The XL Ist Congress was called to order by the Clerks of each branch on the afternoon of March 4th. The Democrats of the house inaugurated the session with disorderly opposition to the exc'uston of the Georgia and Louisiana representatives from the roll. The Senate approved of President Grant’s nominations for cabinet officers, viz,: Elihu B. Washburne, of Illinois, Secretary of State; A. T. Stewart, of New York, Secretary of the Treasury; Adolph E. Borie, of Philadelphia, Secretary of the Navy; Ex-Gov. (and Gen.) Jacob D. Cox, of Ohio, Secretary of the Interior; J. A. J. Cresswell, of Maryland, Postmaster General; Judge E. R. Hoar, ot Massachusetts, Attorney-General. The question came up at once on the repeal of the Tenure of Office Act, and the repeal (on Grant’s recommenda tion) of the Law of 1798, by which an importer in business cannot be Secretary of the Treasury. Sev eral measures have been proposed with reference to the first, and two bills introduced on Saturday for the second went over through Sumner’s objections. —A Joint Committee on the Removal of political disabilities has been agreed to.

Hoffman as Grand Sachem of Tammany. The Democrats carried Utica, Elmira and Oswego in Municipal elections, but lost Rochester. Gov.

All transit duties on passengers have been abolished, and R. R. companies are to be taxed on their work ing capital. In Pennsylvania John P. O'Neill, Esq., a worthy man, is to be U. S. District Attorney for the Eastern District. The very, unsuccessful attempt of Col. McClure, of The Chambersburg Repository, do dictate to Gen. Grant the appointment of Gov. Curtin to a place in the Cabinet, or at least the non-appoint ment of “such men as Geo. H. Stuart and Adolph E. Borie,” lias strengthened the hands of the Cam eron wing of the party by making their opponents ridiculous. Col. Forney is in low spirits, and con? templates emigration to North Carolina. In the City an estimate based on the assessment of last Spring, omitting the extra assessment of Oc ~ fixes our at 769,380. In 1868 17,250 children were born, 8,988 of them boys, and 385 colored.

Texas, Missouri and Kentucky were passed over by the Trustees of the Peabody Fund, because their Ed ucational Institutions suffered least from the war. In the Interior minors are prohibited from play ing billiards by a new law of Indiana. The South ern section of the State, settled froth Kentucky, is a scene of great social discord from the non enforce ment of the laws.

The dead-lock continues in the Legislature. The Republicans have resigned ; the Democrats do not form a quo rum ; the Governor will issue no warrants to fill vacaneies. . > - FOREIGN. In England Gladstone’s Irish Church Bill, offered and resd March Ist, is a very complicated affair, providing for the preservation of all vested rights, but setting apart half the property of the Estab lißhment to be used for the benefit of the Irish peo ple. A Royal Commission to carry out the pro gramme is to exist for ten years. Appointments to church benefices are to be made without invest ment Jin the temporalities, and no money is to be used lor permanent purposes. New organizations of the Church for her work are to be recognized by the Queen, but not created. Private endowments remain intact. Twelve cathedrals are to be pre served by national appropriations as national prop erly. Church buildings not needed by the disestab lished Church are to be devoted to secular uses. Instead of the Regium Donum and yearly grants to Maynooth, an endowment is to be given to May nooth and Magee College. The Bill is to be dis cussed March 16tli. The Regium Donum and the Maynooth grants are to be gradually abolished. The bill is doubtfully and sparingly criticized, the main objection being the multitude of its provisions. The Government will not attempt to introduce an Ocean penny-postage until the present contracts, with steamers shall have expired. Mr. Goschen, President of the Poor Law Board, nrges Parliament to repeal all restrictions on emigration. The county funds hereafter are to be apportioned hereafter by elective Financial Boards, and a new and simpler Bankriiptcy Bill is to be introduced, as also a Bill oh Scottish Education. The Irish Tenant Right Bill is postponed till next session. The Women’s Suf frage Movement continues. The storms of Febru ary severed all the cables between England and the Continent. Government pays $1,900,000 to the annual expenses of the 150,000 volunteers. The army and navy coast guard branches of her Ma jesty’s service are to be cut down, and about 1.4 000 persons mustered out. The population of the British Isles increases 200,000 yearly, although as many as the population of Mass, come to America yearly, England imports only five per cent, of 'her fresh meat. Negotiations for the exchange of the colony of Sierra Leone for the French colony of Great Bassan are.in progress. In Ireland the Conservative wing of the Orange party are organizing for a great agitation to unite Irish Protestants in opposition to the Irish Church Bill. The Bishops are about to hold a convention to devise the measures of the future. In France bad feeling towards Prussia seems to increase. The journals declare that peace can only be preserved by Bismarck's giving pledges for the observance of the Treaty of Prague. 'I he passage ot the law by the Belgian Chambers to prevent the transfer of R. R. franchises and privileges to for eigners is excitedly set down to Prussian instiga tion, as it, greatly interferes with the projected ex tension of great French lines. Yet Belgium is said to profeES a desire for a closer alliance to France. King George of Hanover tried to avail himself of the war fever to raise a “ Hanoverian Leg’on ’’ in Paris, hut the Emperor stopped him. In the event of war, Luxemburg will be as valuable as ever as a strategic point, for the city spends only 30s. per week in carrying out the orders of the Paris Con ference .to demolish the fortifications.

Napoleon has ordered life-size portraits of Johnson and Grant for Versailles. The Imperial Academy have elected Dr. Livingstone to fill the place vacant by the death of Dallas Bache. Roche fert is to be a candidate to represent Paris in the next Corps Legislatif. The agricultural population has diminished six per cent, in twenty y<ar<. In Germany Bismarck defends the confiscation of King George'B estates on the ground that he was using their revenue to embitter France against Prussia. King George lias formally protested against the measure and asks (and seems likely to get) permission for the members of l’is Guelph Le gion to enter the Austrian service. King William’s Thronrede at the opening of the ninth German Par liament was pacific and hopeful, but closed by “showing teeth." Mr. Bancroft gave a great ban quet, March 4th, at which Bismarck expressed his gratification that Germany and theU. S. had never quarrelled. Die Ereuz-Zeilung (official) charges France with intriguing for the absorption of Bel gium. The French Ambassador at Vienna, has opened negotiations for the transfer of the Tyrol to Italy. In the German Universities there are 550 American students. In Spain the Cortes are at work on the new Con stitution. A Republican organ, La Reforma, urges the recognition of Cuban independence, or compro mise rather than continue a ruinous war. Don Carlos is raising money to begin a guerrilla war next Spring, and his emissaries are working on the religious prejudices of the peasantry. Seven of his underlings and a quantity of military stores and papers have been seized in Arragon. Spain owes $2,125,000,000 and pays $168,750,000 yearly in in terest. The monopolies of salt and tobacco are un der discussion. The detection of recent conspira cies charged upon the Republicans,, has postponed an amnesty proclamation. The King of Portugal consents to be a candidate for the throne of Spain if his father Ferdinand .willresume that of Portugal. Isabella proclaims all that has been done since'she left it, to be null and void, and refuses to abdicate in favor of her, son. In 0,4 a, besides many minor encounters, the Spainards claim that Gen.' Lesea has won on the Sierrade Capitas the greatest, battle of the .war. He estimates the loss of the rebels at 1,000, and re p irts \fiem thoroughly demoralized. ■ Rebel': priso ners are to be transported to Fernando Po, on the coast of Africa.'

In Afganislan Cabool is the scene of a civil war over a disputed succession, and the Afghans are re suming war wilh the British. In South America leading Bogotan journals op pose the Darien Canal treaty and it will probably be rejected. Lopez has an army and is fortifying the interior of Paraguay. The dissensions of the Allies hafve driven some of tbeir ablest generals from command. PRESIDENT GRANT'S IN'AIGCJUL. Citizens of the United States: Your suffrages having elevated me to the office of President of the United States, I have, in conformi ty with the Constitution of our country, taken the oath of office prescribed therein. I have taken this oath without mental reservation, and with the de termination to do, to the best of my ability, all that it requires of me. The responsibilities of the po sition I feel, but accept them without fear. The office has come to me unsought. I com mence its duties untrammeled. I bring to it a con scientious desire and determination to fill it, to the best of my ability, to the satisfaction of the people. On all the leading questions agitating the public mind.l will always express my views to Congress, and urge them according to my judgment, aad when I think it desirable will exercise the constitutional privilege of interposing a veto to defeat the meas ures which I oppose; but all laws will be faithfully executed, whether they meet my approval or not. I shall, on all subjects, have a policy to recommend, but none to enforce against the will of the people. Laws are to govern all alike, those opposed to as well as those who favor them. I know no method to secure tlierepeal of bad or obnoxious laws so ef fective as their stringent execution. The country having just emerged from a great rebellion, many questions will come before it for settlement in the next four years which preceding administrations have never had to deal with. In meeting these it lA desirable that they should be approached calmly, without prejudice, hate, or sectional pride, rememberyig that the greatest good to the greatest number is the object to be attained. This requires security of person and property, and free religious, and political opinions- in every part of our common country, without regard to local prejudice, and all laws to secure these ends will re ceive my best efforts for enforcement. A great debt has been contracted in securing to us and our posterity the Union. The payment of this, principal and interest, as well as the return to a specie basis as soon as it can be accomplished, without material detriment to the debtor class or the country at large, must be provided for. To protect the national honor, every dollar of Go vernment indebtedness should be paid in gold, un lessotherwise expressly stipulated in the contract. Let it be understood that no repudiator of one farthing of our public debt will be trusted in public places, and it will go far toward strengthening a credit which ought to be the best in the world, and it will ultimately enable us to replace the debt with bonds bearing less interest than we now pay. To this should be added a faithful collection of the revenue, a strict accountability to the Treasury for every dollar collected, and the greatest practica ble retrenchment in the expenditures in every de partment of the Government. When we compare the paying capacity of the country now, with the ten States still in poverty from the effects of war, but soon to eme?ge, I trust, into greater prosperity than ever before, with its paying capacity twenty five years ago, and calculate what it probably will be tweaty-five years hence, who can doubt the feasi bility of paying every dollar with more ease than we now pay for uselet-s luxuries 7 Why, it looks as though Providence bad besiowed upon us a strong box, the precious metals locked up in sterile moun tains of the Far West, which we are now forging the key fo unlock, to meet the very contingency that is nOw upon us. Ultimately it may be neces sary to increase the facilities to reach these riches, a id it may be necessary, also, that the General Go vernment should give its aid to secure this access, but this should only be when a dollar of obligation to pay secures precisely the same sort of dollar to use now, and not before. Whilst \he question of specie payments is in abeyance, the prudent business man is careful about contracting debts payable in the distant future. The nation should follow the same rule. A prostrate commerce is to be rebuilt, and all industries encour aged. The. young men ot the country —those who from their age must be its rulers twenty-five years hence—have peculiar interest in maintaining the national honor. A moment’s reflection upon what will be our com manding influence among the nations of the earth in their day, it they are only true to themselves, should inspire them with national pride. All di visions, geographical, political, and religious, can join i i the common sentiment. How the public debt is to be paid or specie pay ment resumed, is not so important as that a plan should be adopted and adhered to. A united de termination to do is worth more than divided coun sels upon the method of doing. Legislation upon this subject may not be neces sary now, nor even advisable, but it will be when the civil law is more fully restored in all parts of the country,and trade resumes its wonted channels. It will be my endeavor to administer the laws in good faith, to collect tbe revenues assessed, and to have them properly, accounted tor, and economical ly disbursed. ; I will, to the best' of ray ability, appoint to office those only who wilh carry out this design. In regard to foreign policy, I would deal with na tions as equitable law requires individuals to deal with each other, and I would protect the law abiding citizen, whether of native or foreign birth, wherever his rights are jeopardized or the flag of our country floats. I would respect the rights of all nations, demand ing equal respect for our own. If others depart from this rule in their dealings with us, we may be compelled to follow their precedent. The proper treatment of the original occupants of this land, the Indians, is a subject deserving of careful study,. I will favor any course towards them which tends to their civilization, Christianiza tion, and ultimate citizenship. The question of suffrage is one which is likely to agitate the public so long as a portion of the citi zens of the nation are excluded from its privileges in any State. It seems to me very desirable that this question should be settled now, and I entertain the hope and express the desire that it may be by the ratification of the fifteenth article of the amend ments to the Constitution. In conclusion, I ask patient forbearance one to wards another throughout the land, and a deter mined effort on the part of every citizen to do his share towards cementing a happy Union, and I ask the prayers of the nation to Almighty God in behalf ot this consummation.
