GENERAL GRANT.
Battle AKln.
Trie Wasbtnaton (jesterdaj'n) correspondence
of tbe IS. Y. Herald tajst-Gencral Grant bu
iBwiSrlted the B0Mou'in Wash ngton alter a
rj social and agreeable taiblon. fciJ
t f cmni he came Oown in hU fl0'8.1
unpretending manurr to Wil ard's Hotel, a
invited two prominent pent emen Iry n N ew
Yoik, Mr. Moea II. Orlnnell arid Mr. 1 B.
JJIalthford. to dine with him the following
evtnine.fae found Mr. Grlnnell absent Irom
hVs room, but Mr. Blatchford, with whom he
was nnarqnaii.ted. happening to be
present, both' ente.ci Juto conversation until
ir. Orinnnll made bis PPCHraiicB; when
the talk became more familiar and dincnrMve.
TbeUenerai talked freely upon thft 0o
enbiects finauco, reconstruction, tbe Btaie oi
the country, the prospects before it, and ended
ly atking Loth bis- heaters, who were delighted,
fully impreKsed bv the case and chniua of Ms
titirtMriiined conversion, to meet him at dinner
the next evpump. The dinner was an cmiueutiy
eocial and attractive allair. Sixteen persons
were omcnt, including (Jeneral and Mr'. Grant,
jioses Kriunell, K. M. Ulatchford, Henry
p Cooke and lady, Coiigrcffnian ('larks and
jii'ily, Columbus Delano and lady, nnd GeuersI
W'ickbnm, ex-Conlcileriite peneral. Dinner
over, the eeotlemnn retired to the library to
..ni mid tlk. The conversation soon turned
an
niton military malteig, Buejested by a question
.Vdcniral Wick hum to General Grant, as to
whether the latter took part In the battle ot
Pnlo Al'o. in Mexico. Giant responded that it
taVlot to be t!erc. as in all tlio other battles
0- the rarapalBn. Wick ham related his share la
the l'alo Alto cneaeenient, aud then bolli

nk Grntit on his ittu -n nomelhinc about the
fHUious canipaipn in the Wilderness, sothatbotn
nulntirv meu misht euter on familiar ground
ii"uin. General Wickharo, bavins commanded
an important division iu Lee's army, and being
tuoroiiL'bly arqnaiuted with the points ajjaiust
waifh Grant hurled his lei;ioii, tue conversa
tion atbumed a deeply iutertstinu' character,
efpecially as General Grant entered with more
tlian his accustomed vmor of description into
tne details of hi great movement auainst
lttcliniond. The dinlogue. to those around
could not have possibly been directed into a
more absorbing channel, and it is needless to
ay it was listened to throughout with the live
lied attention. When the etory reached Appo
mattox Court House, both generals shoot bauds
and cvpres.ed a cordial hoie tbat a time, would
6onu arrive when the soldiers ot either army
would meet in the same f-pirit of harmonious
and fraternal Heltng. Mrs. Grant presided at
the table with all her q.iiet womaulv grace,
vtbiie Moses GriLuellencaed h 'r attention with
many humorous tallies about her prospective
management at the White House. He wished
to impress upon her the osr ntial necessity ot
providing a good ro:K and steward lor tho
Executive mansion, as they bore the same rela
tive importance to a well conduce 1 residence
as a first-clans captain nnd mate didtoashio.
The dinner talk sall of a light and cheerful
character, nnd seems to hi remembprcd with
peculiar pleasure by thoe who were there.

Mr. Wadswonh. the ablest radical iu Ken-
tuckv. and certaiuly not tne least probaole
recipient of ollicial luvoi from the next admin
istration, Blnce he was so affectionately entitled

was at the Bourbon House some day since, and
in conveisation with several ec'itleinen ho
trcclv expressed his views on the political
itnation. and of what he believed would be
the policy of Grant's regime. Iu short, it is
tiuite likely that Mr. Wads worth speaks to some
extent "by the card," and he was too oppn and
nnreperved In the expiesslon of bis oninions to
allow us to doubt for a moment the propriety of
publishing them In subbtance.
Mr. Wadsworth said that the Legislature of
Kentuckv oueht to make a move towards tbe
ndoDtion of an amendment so the Constitution
of the United Sta'.es combining univeral suf-
T - find universal amnesty, tuis would onng

amendment, consider
j.,r,,(in iio Ishea. '
As the cae now sianus iu ucmunj mv,-v i
our office-holders will have to vacate thoir
offices, which would be avoided by the amend
ment he suggested.
We atked him how it was proposed to turn
them out of their offices. He replied that it
would be done by Congress imposing heavy
penalties for violations or tbe fourteenth
amendment, and th j United States courts de
clarlng the acts of such officers as come under
Its proscription null and void. Of General
Grant he spoke Iree'.y, and, of course, ad
miringly. He considers Grant a man of pro
found thought, and thinks that he will be fouud
to possess fine administrative ability. He is
"still water," but he is also "deep."
The Ltuucuan, said oir. waasorin, loos
the proper view of General Grant's probible
course, and those Democrats who expected him
to act ontaithfully to the radical party will bo
disappointed. The President elect has not the
reticence that is generally attributed to him
that in, he hasn't got it quite so bad as is
believed. He will not talk freely to newspaper
correspondents who rump him for sensation,
aud who are quite as likely to give an unfaithful
as a correct report of his views. But in the
presence of his friends he does not hesitate to
declare him telf. He won't "speak out in meet
ing," unlets it is iu a meeting of Iriends. He is
like the blood of tit. Januarius, which warms
ni ftoftens onlv on ceitain occasions.
Mr. Wadsworth thinks that Grant's own in
tention", as well as his pledged honor in accept
ing the radical nomination, will cause him to
carry out laithiullv the wishes of the party
tbat elected him. His idea of "having peace"
Is the one tbat prevailed before tho age of
enlightenment dawned ujon the earth; when
lor js and knights took to themselves tciritory
and vassals wherever they had power to seize
them. It is eiin ply tbat "the conquered mu-t
submit to the conquerors." In pursuance ol
this Idea, Grant will appoint generals and other
ofiiceis who will i.co that tbe reeoustruoiiou
n)taureB ot Congress are strictly enlorced,
pveulin their most obnoxious features, thus
nffoiding free rcope for Congress to experiment
ia military and nigger govercmeuts in the
bontbeto States.
Mr. Wadswocth jocularly said to the stage
driver tbat when be got to be President ho
would sec tbat the stuge between Paris and
Jdajsvllle nado dayPght trips. We remarked
that it was not at all unlikely that Mr. Wads
worth might have coutrol of the poit route
after March next. He siid the office of Post-mastcr-Geueral
was a laborious oue and seemed
to prefer that of Attorney-General.
As the stasrc passed off some one remarked
that the Goodloes. Speeds, and o'.her original
Kentuckv radicals would nes to It that a ' latter
day saint" like Wadsworth did not reclve the
h sheet office testowed on Kentucky. We, how
ever, reminded him that Grant himself is a
"latter-day saint." and was not known pol
tively as a radical until it was clear that the
Democrats would not bid for his support.

eflectso7a wound received In the forahead by
brick tbrown by a man named Joe Carr,
on Thursday night last while ha (Ooyle) was

sixth and South streets. The following testi
mony was adduced:
Mrs. Annie Coyle sworn I reside at No. 2111
Lombaiu ;treet;on Thursday evening, between.
6 and 7 o'clock. liO lighted his pipe to go to the

about two seconds he returned, and said, "I'm
murdered," and fell into my arms; tne oioou
How all over me; he was out on the forehead
between the eyes; he stated to me that it was
Joe C'arr who hit bim with a brickbat; don't
kuow that they had any quarrel together; tbey
appeared to be on good terras; never saw
Joe Carr, who is my brother, since; ray
husband was In liquor that night; Joe Carr
came to me about a week ago aud wanted me
to give him a ring; I wouldn't give it to him:
he insisted upon having it. and my husband
said he should not beat me; they never b,
each other afterwards; my husband handed wa
the piece of brick.
William Hafterty sworn Have beeti boarding

puBt en o'ciock on j. nursaay nignt uoyle and I

and I walked away; Carr was close to me when
he picked np the brick; Coyle subsequently
told me that he bad been murdered br Joe
Carr; there was not a word said by either Coyle

James Kelley, who boardel at Coyle's, and
was in company with William lUIItjrty. corro
borated the testimony of the last witness.
Dr. K li. Shaplelgrt sworn I made a post
mortem examination; found a luceraled wound

Mon ol the brain, particularly the posterior p;rt;
death resulted from congestion of the brain
caused by the violence.
Dr. David Merritt testified tbat he was called

OnriAKizED. The Hoard of Direotora of the
Eighth School Section have organised by elect
ing John II. Atwood President, aud Alexauder
P. Colesberry secretary.
The Board of School Directors of the Seventh
section have organized by the unanimous re
election of Penrose Fell, Esq., as President.
This is a deserved compliment to a gentleman
who devotes all his time to school matters, and
is a most elliclenl and faithful as well as cour
teous officer.
Coeker-Lounoeks. Mayor Fox this morn
ing issned very positive directions to his police
lieutenants to have all corner loungers arrested.
Any dereliction on the part of a policeman to
make these arrests will be sufficient cause for
his removal from ihe force.
Rbscced. At half-past 12 o'olock this morn
ing a drunken individual walked into tbe Dela
ware at Arcu nrrf.ei., nun whb rescued irom
drowning by Patrick Manning, a private watch

pellers. i
Licenses. The following lioensea were
granted this morning by Mayor Fox: Br
tholomew Kennlef, pawnbroker; and to Con
cert Hall and Odd Fellows' Hall at Broad and
Spring Garden streets.
Tbe New York Money Market.
From the Times.
"Money is now fairly restored to a 7 per cent,
currency rate, at which tho supply to tbe
brokers is nearly or quite equal to the demand.
The effect of Ibis change is to stimulate the
already bullish feeling durlug the pressure in
the railway sand Stale bonds, aud some of the
miscellaneous shares, on the Slock Exchange,
and to direct especial attention to the public
funds of the United Stales, which closed Rt
1U8 premium for the 5 20s of 1HU7, and 112' f r
the 18(i2s, as against 1U7J4 and Hi, respectively,
on Saturday, January 2. The other gold
bearing stocks werecorrespondingly advanoed.
"Tbe general trade of the city during the
week was quite fair for the season, and some
what ahead of last year in foreign merchan
dise. Tbe customs receipts of the mouth,
which is an icdex to the amount of foreign
goods marketed, promise to exceed the 87.201.000
fken at New Yoilc last year about 20 per cent.
We notice that at San Francisco, for the calen
dar year just closed, the customs were about a
million oi dollars in exoess of 1807, while at
New York they fell J187,000shQrtor the previous
Year. For the iiiumiX mouwig ui iue ourreui
flt-oal vear. July 1. to Dec. 81, 1808, they are
83 241,403 ahead orthecorresponaiugsixmonius
the year previous. The Secretary of the Trea
sury estimates, for all the ports for the whole
fiscal year to end ou aoth June. 180U, 8175.000,001);
Commissioner Wells, 8170,000,000. We believe
tbat if no linaucial legislation should take place
at Washington calculated to disturb confidence
or to interfere with the steadiness of trade
backed as the latter now is by ample grain and
provision crops at the West, and a valuable,
and in point of price, still rising cotton crop
the nOUlll luui. uuiu rniiiuttm win ne
exceeded. Tne business in tbe cotton market
and on the Oin Kxciiange tnrougn tne week
past was active, and prices, wlta few excep
tions, firm, and for cotton buoyant; but there is
some drawback to this In the fact that prices
nave advanced out of tbe reach, of present ex
port orders. Tbe limits on these, however, may
soon be advanced by cable, so far as cotton is
concerned. It is evident that the reduced crop
o.nmntsa nn this side have lm nailed zreal
onnfldence to speculation, and Induced some of
onr own rulll-owuers to increase their stocks
for consumption."

Baltimore station; and a mail bag was also
stolen from the mailing room of the Post
