Tivtway, of the engineer corps, has been ordered to report on the Ist of April to the superintendent of the Naval Opservatory in this city for duty in con- nection with the observation of the transit of Venus. Mr. Guo. F. Hoan, in the Honse this morn- ing, stated that in commenting upon a resola- tion introduced by him yesterday, he is reported as having said that the school teachers in the District of Columbia had not been paid their salaries for twelve months. He said he did not say they had not been paid for twelve mouths, but for many months. TaveMan flunked with some remarks about “a broad and catholic spirit,” such as men have who are training for the Presidency.

Tae Boston Cottectorsurr Fieut Ger TING WARMER.—General Butler this morning bad an interview with President Grant on the subject of the Boston collectorship. He left the Executive Mansion and returned with Secretary Kicbardson, Senator Bontwell, and Represen- ves Hooper and Buttinton. the two last- named being among the four Itepressntatives trom Massachusetts who, with General Butler and Mr. Dawes, did not sign the recommenda- tion to the President of Messrs. Burt, Lincolu or Fiske, as suitable persons for the collector- ship, as a compromise in place of Simmons. far as the result of the interview can be ascer- tained it is the opinion of one who was present that Simmons’ nomination will not be with- drawn, and in the event of his rejection by ths Senate the President will not nominate any of the three persons named by seven of the Massa- chusetts Kepresentatives. DEBATE ON THE CENTENNIAL.—In the Sen- ate this afternoon Mr. Sumner made a speech of nearly an hour in opposition to the interna- tional feature of the centennial exhibition. He held that it would be improper to make the ex- hibition a world’s tair or to invite the monarchs and potentates of Europe to join us in celebrat- ing the one hundredth anniversary of American independence—ot the birth, in fact, of republi- can principles. When the scheme was proposed Coneress heard nothing in regard to making an international exhibition of the commemora- tion. The commissioners had departed from the original idea and taken the liberty of m’ ing an effort to make it a world’s fair. A national celebration,” said the Senator, “is much; an international exhibition is much; but both combined are too much.” Mr. Thurman said but one fir invitation to participate in the exhibition— Germany. Mr. Kamsey said another tirst-class power—Sweden—had accepted, ant he sent up to the clerk's desk dispatch, which was read, stating that the Diet of Sweden had passed ap- propriations to defray the expenses of commis- sioners to the exhibition.
