Lxijx Friday the United Stated Senate passed a bill, which had previously pass ed the House, making the 22d of Febru ary, New Year's day, Good Friday Fourth of July, Thanksgiving day and Christmas day legal holidays. Nothing is eaid of Decoration day.

Gov. Ci.AKMN, of. Massachusetts, haw officially approved the bill amending the Prohibitory law, and also thestipplemen tary act. It will, therefore, be lawful, in the Bay State, to sell cider, ale, porter, strong beer, and lager beer hereafter, The question of liquor is not, however, "out of politics," as towns and cities will have the question of authorizing or pro liibiting sales under the law before them every year.

that he is absolutely suffering

f.om poverty that he left New York poor mau, shattered in constitution, and with an income so small that he had very hard work to cover the necessary ex penses of his family.

A little attention to last week's Congressional proceedings would have shown oar neighbor that the Senate apportion went bill was sent to sleep in one of the pigeon-holes of the House Judiciary Com mittee, and seut there, too, by the votes of Western Democratic members. The St. Louis Democrat, in closing an article on this subject, says: "It is settled, then, that the West is not to have in the next Congress the proportion of power to which population entitles it. Until 1872 a majority of the wliele people must con tinue to be ruled by a minority east of the Allagheuiea. We might censure for obstinate opposition to a bill so just the Eastern members, who knew right well how much partial legislation has already done to estrange Western feeling. But they had the excuse of sectional interest. •The Democrats from the West, who might have turned the scale to end that unjust sectional legislation, aud refused, are the men chiedy to bhinc."

THE AHIIHIKTRATIOIA SUCCESS.

Who Denounce It—Mr. Lincoln Similarly A wailed—What President Grant has Done—The Plain People

Believe in Hint as They Believed in Lincoln. From the New York Tribune.) -jjN.

General Grant's career President is vehemently pronoonced a failure by such representatives of different 'opinions and constituencies as the

World

Sun..

and the

The one denounces him because, whereas he once seemed to have few affiliations with professional politicians, he is now on the best terms with them because he nfaows capacity to forget political grndges in desire to do his duty, and thus opens cordial relations with old antagonists like General Butler because he is not, as it avers, a brilliant President (like Pierce or Buchanan, we suppose), is not ambitious to enforce a policy of his own, but is most ready, waiving his own opinions, when necessary, to accept and execute the will of the people, as expressed through Congress. The

Sun

is even more

vehement, butleasexplicit. It denounces him (after claiming that, but for its editor, he would never have been Command-er-in-Chief or President) becligie he takes occasional seasons ol relaxation frota the cares of office because he does not a high tone with effete «pd bankrupt Spain because he has appointed lo office men once engaged in rebellion: and, in general, because, as it alleges, he is lazy and incompetent.

Willi the personal matters which, in one of these cases, that of Afr. Dana, are openly discussed in connection with tins judgment, we have nothing to do. With the judgment itself we nropose briefly to deal. We do not regard General Grant's adminiHtration as a failure. We do re garil il as a very safe and substantial sue cess, and wc do not for one moment doubt that outside the narrow, but noisy, limits of political disappointments and aspira tions, the sober, well-considered judgment of the country sincerely and heartily renders the same verdict. We remember that there was a time when Mr. Lincoln was denounced in terms almost identical with those now used in denunciation of General Grant. 1 le was accused of lack of brilliancy. He was declared to be no politician. He was said to cling to poli tical nobodies, like Bates and Usher and Welles to ignore the live, powerful men of the party, like Chase and Cameron and Butler, lie was without pluck, allowing the country to be bullied by Great Britain with her privateers, and by France with her Mexican expedition. He sought relaxation from the cares of ofHce, and even indulged in the enormity of telling stories, while the Republic was in the throes of a struggle for its existence. Yet, in spite of envenomed assault on these and many like scores, he was renominated Without a count. Then was seen how trivial and inconsequential was all this noisy surface opposition. It was found that, since Jackson, no man had reached the popular heart. Assailed in committee-rooms, he was applauded town-meetings. Distrusted in caucuses he was enthusiastically followed by the plain yeomanry of the country. The men who cast the votes believed in him to their heart's core, and his second race for the Presidency was no race at all but a triumphal procession. It is too soon to say that General Grant's }opular ity will to the end abide the same testsit is not too soon to say that it now seems of like character. The plain people be lieve in him, as they believed in Lincoln

They consider his administration, as they considered Lincoln's, a success. And they are right. For

Grant's Administration

collecting the

revenue, economiziny the expenditures, and paying the debt.

When General Grant was

inaugurated the national debt was $2,738 803,598. At the end of his first year was $2,651,668,795, and since then it has been steadily reduced in ever-increasing ratio. Yet taxes have not been increased. On the contrary, special taxes have been from time to time largely reduced, imiost8 have been removed, the burden has

een more and more lifted from produc tive industry, and at this very moment, in accordance with General Grant's earn est desire, a modified Tax and Tariff bill is before the Senate, having already pass ed the House, which takes off at a. single stroke sixty-live millions more. Yet the revenue increase*. What, under John soil, went into the pockets of the thieve: goes, under Grant, into the coflers of the Treasury, and its amount is deducted from the annual taxation.

Grant's Administration, though that of the most sncce&f ul and renowned soldier of his age, is earnestly seeking peace with alt nations and avoiding entangling alliances.

We liav

not always been able to agree with some details of his foreign policy but this is its net result. Personally a known devotee of the doctrine of manifest destiny, Gen era! Grant has shown so scrupulous a re gard for the rights of our weaker neigh bora that the suspicious Mexicans have ceased to disturb him, aud the critical and unfriendly British Cabinet and press aio forced to accord him reluctant praise If he has not done all things as to Cuba as we would wish them, we are bound least to recognize the fact that he has preserved our burdened people from war protected our crippled commerce from depredation, and uiaile energetic diplu matic efforts for the protection of Ainei ican citizens in insurrectionary region

Grant's Administration has kept tlie peact

on the frontier.

We have beeu threatened

with an Indian war that, under former management, would have swallowed hundreds of millions. With a soldier at the lead of the Government, we migh looked for the logic of bayonet, in the in terpretation of Indian treaties, protection of the advancing railroads, ana openiug up of the Indian country. Instead have had an Indian placed at the head of the Bureau,controlling the relations of the Government with his people, Quaker* selected for Indian agents, the wish Sherman and Sheridan held in check and Spotted Tail and Red Cloud brough peacefully to Washington at tlio moment when their barbarous hordes seemed ready to raise the war-whoop and ply the scalping-knife along hundreds ol miles of our exposed settlements. We reckon the economy of Grant's (Quaker

But we need not continue Ike recital. How poor and beggarly beside these things, seems the complaint that the President chooses to take such relaxation as every '*#rk or shop-keeper seeks to secure ti.*.* he does not nominate for office politicians with whose claims noisy iteration has made the public ear familiar that he does not make rhetorical speeches, and does not seek to establish some great and brilliant policy of foreign aggrandizement or domestic expenditure, in defiance of the will of the people. We have never advocated General Grant as a great statesman. We have presented him to the people as a sound and safe man.

We point to his record withhearty satisfaction, and are stire that the country will unite with us in pronouncing him a sate and sound man still.

Grant's Administration has senireil th triumph of equal rights.

For the passage

of the Fifteenth Amendment we owe him grateful thank?. Against him it might possibly have been carried with his ear nest, cordial and efficient cooperation was certainly attained more speedily and without a serious struggle. In this and in all other leading measures, he has been most true to the principles of the party th-tf elected him, hns lont his most faithful and powerful aid to secure their triumph, and has honestly administered his great office in their light. He has utterly disappointed the Democratic prediction that he would betray the Republicans and hence their wrath. Ho has most cheerfully co-operated with Congress has never hesitated to advance •pinions of his own that differed from those of Congress, and has never delayed heartily to execute the will of the people when once expressed through its voice. With most decided wishes and policy of its own, on many )oints, there never was an Administration with less pride of opinion, or more grace in yielding to the popular verdict, as uttered by the representatives of the people.

Qiani's Administration recognises the whole people,

Every effort is made to obliterate the bitterness of war: to win hack our late foes to that hearty support of the Government essential to otir national safety and prosperity—to make this again in reality one peoplo. In this spirit have beeu many-past acts of the President ui this spirit now is the wise and timely nomination of Mr. Ackerman, of Georgia, for a place in the Cabinet.

the Rebel Consplr acy.

During the late war there was no l'nmor which created greater apprehension on the part of the people of the North than the one which related to a conspiracy to burn the Northern cities and their shipping. It seemed so incredible that any American people should resort to such a method of warfare that few people conld believe it, and the result showing an entire failure to carry out the design it had sunk out of sight and those who had given it credence begun to think that in doing so they had done injustice to the rulers of the South ernConfederacy. Col. James F. Jacquess of the Beventy-third Illinois Regiment however, publishes a statement which though stranger than the wildest romance, bears upon its face evidence of its truthfulness, and gives positive evidence of the existence of the conspiracy.

Col. Jacqness had the confidence of President Lincoln, and was intrusted by him in matters that required the greatest tact, courage and secresy. Twice, with the knowledge and consent.of Mr. Lin' coin, did the Colonel visit the capital of the Confederacy, each time being well re ceived, gaining the confidence of some body in authority, and returning througli the lines with facts of great importance The term spy was applied to him, but he was superior to spies in general. If what he saya is true on hw last visit to Kich mono, he did more to sa\e the Not th than an army.

He had heard rumors of this attempt to destroy our cities by fire—had become acquainted in Canada with a Dr. Johnson one of the secret agents to carry out this diabolical scheme had secured his confidence, learned his secrets, and obtained from him papers that would pass him through the lebel lines. These papers were signed by John C. Breckinridge, and indicated that he was one of the leaders in this "last resort" in favor of the C.m federacy. His credentials placed hiui on good terms with thegentlemanwhowas to manufacture the chemicals which were lo reduce New York, Philadelphia, Boston and othei cities to ashes. He found him a man of heart and feeling, and one who had lost faith iu the cause of theConfed eracv, and who believed that anythin that prolonged the war was adding to the suffering on both sides, without any cor responding hope of good results. Th man soon came entirely under the wonder ful Colonel's influence, and between them they invented a combustible to used by" the conspirators, which, whil '"it would burn as though would biiKii the world lip for a few moments, perhaps half a minute, would then extinguish itself." It was made in shape of aball,theoutsic'ejf which val of the inflammable material, while the inside was of that which would extinguish the fire the other had kindled. This combustible the rulers of the Confederacy caused to be manufactured for the use of their agents North, hoping to bring to terms the Government by destroying the source of her supplies and ruining the fortunes of her people.

Having secured the aid of this tender hearted cnemist, Colonel Jacqness return ed to President Lincoln to report the 1 suit (of his trip and watch the develop ment. He has every reason to believe that the chemist acted in good faith. Numerous fires weremystei iously|kindled in all Eastern cities except Baltimore, but were almost invariable put out in the same mysterious way, and Colonel J. felt happier in believing that lie knew the cause, and that it was his influence over a lonely chemist in his Richmond laboratory lhat saved our cities and our commerce. He so believes to this day It is certainly a romantic chapter in our history. Col. J. can probably write others of similiar character, but none, perhaps, that will equal this.—Civ.
