Atallovents it has boon utter- 1y destroyed h{thu ovonts to-day. 'The Confer- enco Committeo concluded to-day that thoy ‘would cnil on His Exculleuc{ {for the purpoeo of mutual congratulation over the bill which thoy had agroed to, and which thoy supposed Grant would approve, They called.” Thoy did not con~ gratulato very much.” They complain to-night that the tfacitirn man of tho cigar monopolized all the convorsation, snd overwhelmed them with the assertion thnt ho would voto tho bill. Ho was loud and voluble, and gave thom an overhauling of tho first mag- nitude. But this was not all. Afterthoy had takon thoir loave, Grant drew up suceinctly tho rosgons that would impol him to veto tho bill if it should pass, and gavo the document to Sena- tlhr Jouon to' be telopraphod all avar the land. Thoro i gront excitement to-night in conse- uence of all this; His Ixcellency is charged with having '"takon a new {um, nnd having commenced actively to organizo the now party that ia to ‘elect him to tho’ third torm.
