WASHINGTON.
CoDgmfcuun Cobb Declares That He end Finerty Had No Intention to lieaort to liiovre. General Slocum'e VIowa About the Bill to Place Grant on the Retired List Notea. COBB AND FINER IT. Nothing Personal Intended by Either ot the Partie In Thfcir Remarks. Srtclal to the Sentinel. Washington. Jan. 2S. Congressman Cobb, who had an animated discussion with Fia crty, of Illinois, yesterday, Vm the anbjectof dynamite, was in his eeat In the House today, and eaid that the statement made that he and Finerty were about to come to blows was not correct. S-rgeant at Arms Lsedom, he said, did not separate them, neither. Mr. Ccbb paid that he did not think there was anything personal intended by Finerty in his observations on the subject cf dynamite, and he waa eare that be himself did not intend any personal reflection upon Finerty. Both grew very earnest in asserting their opinions, and Cobb eaid he finally walked away of his own volition and the discussion ended. That was all there was cf it. He acknowledged, however, that they were quite earnest and employed strong Jancuage, but declared there was no Intention to resort to blows. (iEXEKAL till AXT Two Hills Introrincert to Place II lm on the Retired List. Washington, Jan. 28. General Slocumin' speaking to-day of the proposed getting of General Grant upon the retired liet of the Army, said there were pending two bills which had that object in view. The fint, which mentions General Grant's name, passed the Senate with only one dissenting vote, which was to framed as to avoid the difficulty expressed in the veto of the Fitz John Porter bill. "Some friends of General Groat," said Representative Stocnm, "want me o call up the second bill instead of the first, which, of course, I could not do, as I waa acting under instructions from my committee. The House Committee then took up tbe two bills and discufEed them fully, and the question wa whether the Instructions already giren roe should be changed and 1 should be instructed to bring np the second bill or not. Every Democrat on the committee and one-half of the Republicans present voted not to change the instructions, but to have me call up tne original bill that was prepared a week ago today, and I should have called it np, and think it would hare passed, had it not been for dilatory motions which were made and sustained by both Democrats and Republicans. I am told there is a movement on foot to call up the second bill by Randall if he can get the floor. The di'lliculty is in getting the iljor aDd a suspension of the rules, which requires a two-thirds vote. The whole ques uoa is simply whether Congress shall deviate from its usual course in this hill in order to comply with the President's views or whether it shall pass the bill in the form it has always been in the habit cf doing. The question is whether the Democrats are going to deviate from lh custom of Con;;re?3 in order to ;i?contii yiva thtiribslves to the President objc.v:in or whether they will pas tlj bill in tu us ihI form. My preference it decidedly for tr?e bill in the nsual form, but I will suoport either bill. The good feeling of the Iia?e Committee toward General Grant is shown by the fact that it instructed me to bring up the firtt bill belcre the eecond was ever introduced or thought of. This shows tbe committee to be earnestly in favor of retiring the General, and that tbe present muddle I? no trick to defeat the measure, as maDy peo pie seem to think." Washiugtou Notes. Secretary I'relinghoysen, in response to a resolution, to day sent to the House a communication on tile at the Department of State relative to the arrest last summer of Tho mas Monahan, claioung to ba acitiz?u of Nashville, Tenn. In Mexico Monahar. uss engineer of the train that met another in collision on the Mexican Central Railroad. He was arrested and placed in confinement. In a letter dated Tuluca, ilex.. July 31, l.St, and addressed to Hon. A. J Caldwell, Tennessee, Monahan says, aftr relating the circumstances ot his arrest: "Iü this exigency I wrote two letters to Minister Morgan, which I presume found a refuge in his waste basket, as I have not jet received the courtesy of an acknowledgment. lam not surprised, however, as I know several Otber similar cases, in which he was apolied to without avail, for he Is alike Indifferent to our citizenship, to onr suffering and to onr politics. It take9 all his time to cater to Mexico's favor. A wooden image would be tetter to represent onr country, for it wonld not difgraci the greatest Republic the wo-13 ever saw. "Wre It not for kind friends I have outside, I might a3 well eiclaim with Dante: 'Abandon hope all ye wba enter here,' for in this country its all law, and Dame Justice puts on a veil of shame and weeps that it should be so." Mr. Caldwell sent thia letter t3 the I)epsrtmen of State, and Secretary of State Davis ordered an investigation, aud in reply to Caidwell says: "I can not pass Monahan's obiervations about Minister Morgan's indifference to the ricbts and in terra ts of American citizens ia Mexico, without observing they are not warranted by his course while Minister, which has been marked by energetic attention ti hh duties. In his letter to Secretary Freiing hnyeen Morgan states ha did not receive the letters Monahan refer to, and toe moment he he?.rd of Monab&u's tronble he did all in his power to have justice done. On January l, Ifbö, Minister Morgan informed the Secretary of State that tbe Jn tpe of the Federal Court at Tcluca had icfortnid Maa-
ahan he had been honorably acquitted and was, therefore, discharged." The President to-day transmitted to tbs House a letter from the Sscretaryof State concerning the awards made by the Venezuelan Mixed Commission. In the opinion of the Secretary of State the honor of the United States calls for an investigation of the charge made bv Venezuela, thatssven awards, amounting to $791,122, are tainted with fraud. Secretary Chandler has written a letter to Rear Admiral English, commanding the Earopean station, in regard to the charge made by an American resident of Nice, France, that the officers of the Mag-ship Lancaster had publicly abused the head of the War Department and all connected with it, for having ordered that vessel to the Congo country, alleging it was done to epite the ladies. The Secretary incloses a copy of the letter received at the department on the subject, and fays that he had written to the writer (whose name is purposly withheld) requesting that he give him (Admiral English; tbe names of the otEcers who made the state ments referred to by the Secretary. The letter to Admiral English concludes as follows: "Yon will immediately institute inquiries concerning the trnth of the statements in this letter by interrogating directly all the officers of the- Lancaster, and if you fi ad any officer has made a specific statement, or has criticized in a hotel or any where, elss any orders of the Department, you will report the fact to the Department, and nntil receiving further instructions you will suaEend such officer from duty, and not allow im to leave his vessel except for urgent reasons to be made of record."

A dispatch from Cairo declares that Lord Charles Bsreiford, with a email contingent, is peshiug on from Metemneh to Khartoum. 1:00 p. in. Official dispatches indicate that the march of Genera'. Stewart and his little army from Abu Klea Wells to ils present poeiticn was no easy tak. Almost every foot of the way nppfarj to have beensharpiy contested by a rerolute Arab foe. Thers waa a constant tucceteion cf encounters from the action ibe 17th till tbe Nile was reached. The British troopj steadily giinei freh victories over the impetuous but easily demoralized re:eis On the morning of Mondiy, Janrarv 10, twj dajs after the fight at Abu KIck, the eceoiy appeared iu full force in Iront of tbe advancing Eritish army. A short, fierce battle was fought. Ths o?carred at pcint about thr? miles from the Nile. The British were compelled to sustain a hf.avy rirfi for sometime. Early in the engagement Geteral S:ewrt recivd his wound, aüd Sir Cuaries Wilson tberbupon afEumtd command. Wexts were hattily constructed under the leaden rain which continued to pour upon them from the enemies' rifles. The wounded men and bajgage train were left uuder guard behind the juickly-built eatth works, while the rest of the lorce advanced in the face of tbe bceule tire to Gravel P.idge, soaie dis tance in front. Here a large force of the rebels had established themselves in a strong position. As soon as tbe British line cme near, a fierce charge led by several En'rj, was made against it by the rebel fcemea. The British troops arranged ai usai!, in the form of a square, and steadily advanced to meet the wild onset of tbe the loudly cheering enemy who were rushing doxn npon them, at the same time the riHes of. the British doing bloody execution. Tan charge wes checked and not an Arab caiic within thirty yards of the British square. The rebels did not long stand bsfore the murderous English fire, but were repulsed with heavy losf. The rebels left five Kmirs and 2"0 men dead upon tne field, aod. a largtj n amber wounded. Alut t lie Engi-h looses few detiis b&ve as yet been received.

Stewart now hoi Is a strongly fortified post at Gubat not far from Metemneh, a place oa the Nile half way between Berber and Khartonai. Opposite Gnbat is a large island ou which plenty of forage for horses and cam sis is easily obtained. So strong is the position at Gubat that it is confidently asserted it can bs held by a small garrison 8gainst any force wh-.ch the rebels may be sent to attack it. The route across the desert from Gabst ts Korti is securely held by the Eoglish. Colonel Sir Redvers Boiler will bs in command of of this route. He left Korti to dsy to assume the position. The news of Stewart's movements since ihe battle at Abu K'ea Wells was brougit to Korti by Captain Pigott He left Gubat with dispatches Saturday last, and reached Korti this morning, having encountered no Eerious difficulty by the way. Italians In Egypt. Ar en, Jan. 28. Advices from Perim state that the Italian Ironclad ' Castle Widardo" arrived at Beilul, on the est coa3t of the Red Sea, not far from ilassb. and saseees felly disembarked a deUchment of troopi intended to co operate with the English in the Soudan. The Italian hag was hoisted in Dei Jul. Later Acroaot of tbe B&ttle. Lospox, Jan. 28, The point where the battle cf the 10th occurred is in the desert abcutfive miles rcuth from Mtemneb. Wben
General Stewart reached that point he found the enemy hoverins: about his little army on all eidea and skirting it often with uncomf&rlably short range. The rebels had evidently stationed themselves in the vicinity to await his arrival and give him battle. When they began to surround him and press in upon him he determined to abide the event He orderfcd his men to dismount and form a zareba. This was made mainly with tha saddles and baggage, and during, its construction the rebel riflemen drew nearer and maintained a hot fire from blind ambushes aud euch hiding places as they could find among the hieh grass. Their fire was very well directed, and was most disastrous in its effect upon the British troops. Twelve men were eoon shot dead and forty others ttricken down with ugly wounds. Among the firs, killed were Mr. Cameron, special correspondent of the London Standard, and Mr. lleiberts, special correspondent of ths London Pest. Ueneral Stewart was one of the very first to be wounded. He was shot in the thirh. When he was shot the work ef making the zaieba was about completed and the army had been put in motion to form its battle array. Tbis was a hollow square, aad was formed in tbe following order: In front the Na;al brigade and Grenadier Guards; on the right Hank tbe Cold Stream Guards and Scots Guards; on the left flank, mounted infantry, aDd cn the rear the Sussex regiment and heavy camel corps. As soon as completed, the square advanced under a steady ambush lira for a distance of two miles. At this point the enemy began to move npon the square in two large ecnelons. These weie directed against the British right, tbe front of which stood unmoved. Daring the rebel charge, the English troops forming the assailed front delivered a terrific fire, aimed right at the enemy's middle, mowing down the men in such heaos they formed ,actnal obstacles, and interfered so seriously with the evenness necessary to the success of the onslaught that the center linwas brought to a standstill about sixty yan from the British lront line. The force of the general movement threw tbe unimpeded part of the line lite the ends of a broken timber around tbe corners of a square, and the rebels so dieplactd were simply cut to pieces. From this on the warfare was disastrous to the rebele. When the enemy's line was broken the Arabs seemed to break np into band, each cf which waged war on its own account. A !arze detachment on horseback wint back to attack the zsreba. This wie garrisoned by a bsdy of English soldiers, made no of a little detachment left bahicd by each corps which had gone forward in the square. Lord Charles Beresford was in command. He sustained the attack for two hours, yrhen ths enemy was comp-MM to retreat. During the general attack npon ths txjuare only six men were killed and iwentyfx wouDded cn the English side. Captain Norton wcrked the euos during this fight, and his firing did awful execution. Stewart and forco on leaving Gakdul Wells consisted of 2,000 picked Crating iüen as follows: Niuety men of tho Nineteenth Hutsare, tbre? divisions of the camel corps, in all about 1.0S0 men, 400 mounted infantry, royal artillery, a battery of forty men, thirty royal engineers, fifty men of naval brigade, royal Sabsex Regiment, 320 strong, e'ghty men cf the Kpex Regiment, fi.'ty men of the transport corps, and as many cf tha medical start corps. Later dispatches received at the war office thow that Lord SL V'.ncent waa not as firet itpcrUd killed in the battle fought in ths dtfert tin the l'Kh inst. He died frm a ound received on tbe 17th at Abu Klea. Only two British olhcers wer! kilted iu the zariba fight. The oher dead were nos-corn-missioned officers and privates.
