Mr. Radical majority in Connecticut is
425, which some of 'our friends, with unri-
Ekill in mathematics, have figured out
as a Democratic gain of nearly three thous
and. „Our taste for election figures has
grown "beautifully less" since last fall, so
that we have no curioity to•givo - l - the subject
a critical investigation.
Utlit4d - StateS Satiate has rejected the
treaty made with England by neverily John
son,by a vote which may alino,t be called
unaninious—SenaplrMeerecry, of Kerktnek v.
'only v,oting in favor of ite ratification. The
tenor of events at Washington looks much
as if it had been resolved to make England
pay the claims we hull against her, or fight.
Close of Congress.
The first session of the Forty-first Congress
closed on Saturday night last by adjourn-
Meat Bunt die. The Senate, at the request of
President Grant, began an executive session
on Monday, to count in or reject such nomi
nations as he may send in. Theshort,ses
sion has accomplished very little in the way
Of legislation, and that little has been crowd
ed:into the last few days.
Foreign Arpointments
The Presi lent sent into the Senate'on
Tuesday a lona. list of foreizn appointees, in
chi lintz J. L tthrop llotlev.of,Nfassaeltusetts,
for.:timi4ter ut E of New
York, thr the Austrian Mi-sion, Andrew G.
Cur in for -Minister to R .ssia, and Gen.
Su•kle4 for .11iniAter to Jh•xicn. Gen. C
II will be to op.mse Cartin's coufir
mation, but as he has the support of Senator
S .ott, there is no prob tbility of
t his defeat.
The removal of Curtin from nn .netive par
tieip "ion in our State p tlities, s% ill leave the
fl .1.1 clear f w the Catn‘troa faction, who will
uttdoubtedly make gond use of , their advari:
tage.
Most or the other appointees for foreign
positions are persons little known to the Falb-
Lc, and it was well remarked by a gentleman
upon reading, them, that "Grant scorns to have
raked the country over frc the most obscure
mon he could find, in, order to send them as
our representatives abroad." Of the half
dozen from Pennsylvania, it might be said,
as Col. McClure told the President about
Boric, that "no one ever heard of them be
ftire." Among the list are two negroes—J.
R Clay, of LOuisiana, Minister resident in
Liberia, and t. D. Bassett; a Philadelphia
school teacher, Minister to Hayti.
In connection with the foreign appoint
it may not be uninteresting to know
\S'the salaries attached to the respective offices.
The ministers to England and 'Franco re
ceive $17,500 a year each ; the ministers to
Bussia,.Austria, Spain and Mexico, $12,000
4oh ; the ministers to Hayti and Liberia,
$7,30,.0 ; the ministers resident in Sweden,
B,Airtim, Guatemala, Bogota, Bolivia and
Nicaragua,s7,soo.
The Comifir: Question.
The New York Herald is disscnssiug the
ways and means of wiping out Mormob
polygamy. One member of Congress pro
poses a military government, another—the
Mormon delegate—the admission of 'Ctah as
a State The Herald favors sort of militit
ry government over Utah, for the prciteetion
; - )f the Mormons and the euppreesiou of poly:
gamy at the same time. A law imposing a
heavy internal revenue tax upon the Mo

—and with a heavier tax the luxury of the
third, and so on, still increasing the tax up
to the prophet's maximum of thirty-nine
wives, wonht be _apt to have a, good effect
Dn. it would be vastly improved with a pre

which act of independence it seems that
he is to be punished by withholding the pat

Senator Ross was admitted at the same
time as old Zach. Chandler, but' hadlhe first
chance tb speak to the'President. 4
"1 come, Mr. President; to speak with 4on
°about the appointments for my State—hav
ing heard that you intended to make certain
nominations that may not harmonize with
my. desire—if you deem it worth while to
consult them in the lease , —
To which Grant laconically and interroga
tingly responded :
"Well, sire
This Presidential response was not in the
true manner to be relished by the Kansas
Senator. "Am I to understand that I am
rightly infOrmed as-to your stated intentions
to disregard my preferences in the matter of
appointments, Mr. President?" inquired the
Senator.
"That iss question hardlysusceptible of an
answer, sir. To what appointments do you
sande? Inform me, and then I can reply,"
rejoined Grant.
Senator Ross liked the second answer as
little as the first, but having come , for en
lightenment, ho was ' determ ined not to go
away in a fog. The Senator,therefore, with
suppressed rage, mentioned the appointments
to which he had reference. '
"Frankly, sir," said Grant, " I intended not
to make those appointments. '
"What, sir! you scorn to accommodate
me lu the least ?" exclaimed Ross, boiling
over with rage.
"Sir. I believe I have given you my an
swer firmly but sternly," replied the Presi
dent.
"This is not treating me fairly, Mr. Presi
dent, nor as one gentleman should treat an,
other," uttered Senator Ross.
"I- have no intention to be dictated to, sit,"
Batt Grant, sharply.
"Nor I to be insulted, even by you, sir,
were you twenty times the Prestdent," ex
claimed Ross, with his ire stirred up to white
heat.
"I must decline to be annoyed any further
on the subject," muttered Grant, between
his teeth, "and desire that tne interview
should terminate."
"You and your desire may go to hell !"
roared out R )84. .
"Ti-ave th room, sir; leave the room, or
I shall-force you out," thundered Grant.
Ross took his departure accordingly, in a
terrible rage, quitting the White Rouse like
one rushing !thin a plague, and hurrie‘t to
the Capitol. Pre-i•lent Grant threw himself
into a chair the moment the door closed and
wiped his brow with his pocket handkerchief,
evidently very much agitated •

At a Radical meeting in Richmond, Va.,
last Friday, Lewis Lindsay, negro, took the
stand and made one of his insist inflamma
tory harangues. He said the white man had
the negro down for two hundred years ; but
that now th e negro was on top. They had
in their h ands the chains and Manacles with
which the white man had kept the negro
bound for so long, and theyintended to put
thent i rm the white rnan - ,' and to make him
groaed sweat, and Work, before they

knew something about tannins, and would
help them to tan the white man until his

repeal of the law to sell the Poor House

Smarten , nen are apt to care little or noth

shins fur his wife and children in the event
of his death. Look into the matter- a little,
and let the - agent for ',The American" of
Pbiladelphiii. make out your application as
soon as possible.
