APPOINTMENTS, NOMINATIONS, AND CONFIRMATIONS.

GRANTS RECEPTION INGTON.

Iiere is a strong opinion in favor of maintaining the Monroe Doctrine, and discouraging this enterprise. In accordance with this view, Mr. Crapo introduced in the House to-day a resolution reaffirming the Monroe Doctrine, declaring the proposed canal project to be hostile to the established policy of the United States, and that it could not be sanctioned by this Government. A contest occurred upon reference of the resolution. J. Floyd King, Chairman of the special Committee on lnteroceanic Canal, wanted it referred to him. Conger, who belongs to King's committee, made some very ironical re marks, showing that the Cnairman had not reported on the matter, though instructed to do so a year ago. A vcte, taken by tellers, decided the matter against King, and the resolution was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations, of which Sunset Oox is Chairman, and who is known to be strongly in favor of enforcing the Monroe doctrine. It is believed by many in the House that King is either working in the interest of the ra

To get Secretary Thompson's views of these matters your correspondent called upon him to-night, and although vary busy, he replied courteously to all questions. In answer to your correspondent he said he had tendered his resignation with a view toaccepl the Chairmanship of the American Commission of the De Lessens scheme to construct the Panama ship canal. He denies that there Is any pontical significance in it. The case he plainly states as follows:

The proposition is simply to build a sal fn and under tb«united States of secured from whatever source it can be bad, just as the great railroads of this country hsive been under the authority of the United States with home and foreign capital. The Asieriaut Commission, of whkli I am proffered the chairmanship, is a simply business affair for the purchase of construction. supplies Ac., involving theerpendItur* and disbursement of many millions of dollars. There is no intention la the scheme to make it a political matter by which any foreign Power shall excrdae any control, the stockholders alone being the only parties interested. The Monroe doctrine declares

WAR DBCLAKBD OH THE BCHKMB. WASHINGTON December 18.—General Grant's arrival and Secretary Thompson's acceptance of the Chairmanship of the Panama Canal Comyany, hare revived the interest in the matter, and given rise to various rumors. It is understood that President Hayes and some members of the Cabinet have expressed displeasure at Secretary Thompson indentifying himself with the scheme, in opposition to the known poliov'of the Administration. It has been clearly defined by President Hayes and Secretary Evarts that the Monroe Doctrine should be maintained, and that American interests would be placed in jeopardy bv the construction ®f the Canal UDder foreign auspices. In the face of this it seems that Secretary Thompson hat allowed his name to be used by De Lesseps for the purpose of forwarding an enterprise regarded by the Administration as not friendly to American inetrests. It was reported to-day that Mr. Thompson was willing to continue as* Secretary of the Navy until the close of bis term of office, as nothing would occur in connection with the Panama project to require his personal attention up to that time, he was assured, it is said, by telegram from De Lesseps. but President Hayes was so displeased with his action that he signified his willingness to receive his resignation. Although the resignation bore date of the 9th, It waa several days before it was actually sent in. It was, at any rate, promptly accepted to-day, and Secretary Ramsey nominated tq do double duty during the rest of this administration, by holding both the War and Navy portfolios. Considerable feeling is manifested in Congress about the matter, and the action of Sec retary Thompson is freely criticised by many for allowing De Leaseps to use the of his office to further his plana.

"THE NICARAGUAX FROJJVCT. I "General Grant's arrival is regarded as significant of the revival of the Nicaragua scheme, and he will have au interview tomorrow with Admiral Am men on the matter. It is thought not improbable that a bill will be introduced to incorporate the rival company, naming General Grant, Admiral Ammen, George W. Riggs, ex Governor Morgan, of New York, and others.' On the other hand, it is not thought that the American branch of the Lesseps Company can obtain articles of incoiporation from the Government, although it might from some State as the Panama Railroad Company did from New York. Although not ready this evening to make any statement of opinion in exUnto, General Grant remarked to your correspondent that he believed it was impossible to construct a canal such as Lesseps proposed to, and that the attempt would be a failure. He thought that the most feasible project was that of Nicaragua.

W-ij*

th* m, I could nor would not for a moment think of accepting the proffered position. On the contrary, I am placed there for the purpose ot watching over American interests, in the spirit of the Monroe doctrins. and.it shall be my aim to Americanize the scheme. The mo ment I discover a departure on the part of the stock company, or other agency, from these principles I would sever my association with it instantly. Yes, even more, if this Government will intimate to me that by the acceptance of the Chairmanship, or any connection with the scheme, I am in conflict with the interests of my country, I shall at once decline any connection with it. Not for life or money or any consideration, will I be found antagonizing any true sense of loyalty or patriotism. But as it is, I am unable to see any difference between accepting this position or the Presidency of the Union Pacific, or auy other railroad of this country. Remember. I am an American before I aril anything else, and I shall seek the interests of my country in the proposed enterprise before me.
