WASHINGTOM The Nebraska and Colorad%s Admission’ Bills Passed in tha Senate. The Report of the New York rost Office Com- mission Ad-pted in the Honse. Wo Avstion Yet Taken by the Judiciary Committee on the Impeaci- ment Resolutions. "WBLEPTION BY GENERAL AND MBS. GRANT, Roo ae Bee Wasurscrox, Jam. 9, 1867, The Cabi net. 16 ® bucwn at Secretary Siantoa did not agree with ‘tho President and the other nfembers of the Cabinet as w the Disiriet Suffrage bill. The President is determined to have » harnonious Cabinet; but the probabilities are ‘has he willigo on without obange until March, and after. ‘eat timorany refractory member who shall Bot have re- signed will be turned ont. At the Gibinet meeting yesterday all the members were present. The time of the meeting was mainly con- wcmed in discussing the schemes now pending in Con- grees for the reduction of the Southern States to a ter- riterial condition, On this peimt the Cabinet was apapimous, Stanton included, that the adminis. tration, having assisted in the creation of the existing governments in these States, and since having weadity recognized them, could not now with any con- sieteney accept a proposition that ignored them; more- ever, it being tho established policy of the administra- ‘on that, as a legal proposition, a State cannot commit ‘Wesson or participate in rebellion, and cannot dissolve ‘ts connection with the Union, end that the genera! gov- evanent has no power to put a Site out of the Union, ‘these States are now as much members of the Union and a ‘ndependent and sovereign States 29 New York, Mas- sechusetts or Pennsylvania, and can n0 more be reduced to Territories than they. The opinions expressed on ‘these potuts by the various members of the Cabinet are wEdorstood to be very emphatic and positive, equally so by al) tho members. As the best of relations are known to exist between the President and his financial secrotary, and as the President places the fullest confidence in the wisdom of Tue management, the rumors islegraphed hence of a ‘want of confidence on the part of the President are simply withoutfoundation, The Executive defers almost extively to Mr, McCulloch upon the question of the fimances, and the two are known to be in the most perfect accord on, the subject, The Impeachment Resolutions. _ Y ig not true, as tated, that the Judiciary Com- amittee of the House bas commenced ite investiga- tion cf the ‘charges against the President, Mr. Ashloy ‘Was invited'to come before the committee ‘Uhie morning informally, and merely in a conversational way, stated to them his grounds for the pharges he had made aul the uature of the proofs he fad to sustain them. Neither his own testimony nor shat of apy one alee was taken onthe subject, nor is the committes yot prepared to proceed with the investigation. It ia a deli- wate question with them, yet to be determined, whether they will proceed with it or not—thcy are authorized but. mot compelied or requested to do 0. They aro fully aware of the Fepponsibitties of the case, and will be cav- tious in their movementaand not proceed ‘unless they are acsured Of reasonable grovnds on which to make out a cace, It fs proper to state that strong influences are being brought to bear npon the committee from re- preblican sourcey to induce them to leave the subject alone and the tove of the New York papers, especially the Braap, has cavsed them to reflect seriously upon ‘the matter. Goneral Grant and the Veto Message. ‘Tt heving been denied by some parties that General rant approved of the President’s Veto Mesago, the statement is reiterated upon the highest authority. The question of disfranchisemont of rebols was not discussed im the mewge, and therefore ite reading neither called forth an opinion on that point from General Grant vor the members of the Cabinet. The question ot unquail- fled negro suffrage was discussed, as well as the relations of the Executive to the legislative departments of the gevernmeut, and the duty of logielators to respect the wishes of the people for whom they legislate, and on Wese points General Grant's voice was as earnest in sup- port of the pofftions taken as that of any member of the Cabinet. He even went further end condemned tho eenduct of Congressmen in foistmg upon 2 community hat bad no representatives negro anffrage while they re- frained from giving the negroes a like privilege in their Admission of Coiorado and Nebraska. General Thayer and 7. W. Tipton, Senators cleet from Nebr ‘and Mesers. Evans and ‘baffee, Senators elect from Colorado, bave been working industriously to se- sure the passage of the respective bills admitting these States into the Union. The Senate to-day gave them a gre’ifying vote in the passiige of both bila, Some of the fetends of these measures wore absent from the city; @herwire the majority would heve been larger. The tadications are that both bouses will give a two-thirds ‘wote in case of a veio. Pho Rill Repeating the Amnesty Clause of the Confiscation Act Before the President. ‘The dill repealing the thirteenth section of the act of 2882, regarding amnesty and pardons, has been received iby the Presidont snd is now under advisement, The President is disposed to approve the bill and probably 40 80,09 be agrees with Mr. Trembull and other leading Senators that the act tonfer: npon him no powers additional to those vestod in him by the constitution, General Grant's Reveption. Generel and Mss. Grant’s first peblic reception of this semnon took place to-mght. Among the many delighied geece wore members of the Cabins’, Senatora and Rep- reventatives, members,.of the diplomatic corps, officers of the army and navy, with others of official prom. senor, About one-third of the company were ladies Ovly a small oumber could find dancing accommodations, owme to tho great pressure, Carriages were etil! arriving @ eleven o'clock.

The prisoner is expected to arrive here by the last of January. Nominations by the President. A large number of nominations were sent into the Senate to-day by the President, comprising. collectors, naval officers, postmaster, &¢,, which were referred to appropriate committees, Among the nominations for collectors was that of J. R, Flanigan, for Philadelphia. There was uo nomination for Naval Officer at New York. Colored Troops Destined for South Carolina. The Forticth United States colored infantry, Colonel Nelsou J, Lies commanding, has received orders to hold themselves im readiness toproceed to South Caro- lina.

Beale ~Geveral Sherman is expected here on the 13th inst, General Schofield is now tn the city, and called upon. the President to-day. . Claius Agents in the Pay Department. The Paymaster Generat bas qutherized the paymont of ‘vouchers signed by claim sgents, where the power of attorney of the claimant gives such authority to the agent. This is in contravention of the previous practice of the dopartment, which was intended to protect claim- ants from being cheated by swindling agents, and, though perhaps in accordance with the rules of com- mercial law, it is a departure from @ ‘rale that limited the opportunities for fraud of many irresponsible per- sons in thé claim agency business. The Question of Incrensed Compensation of Gavornment Clerks. ‘The bill to increase the salaries of the civil employés of the government in this city was brought up in the House to-day, and was the subject of much debate and comment, It was introduced by Mr. Gar- fleld, of Ohio, who very strongly recommended its passage. Messra, Schenck, Grinnell, Myers and Farns- worth took part in the debate, which was longthy and spirited. Pending a motion of Mr, Garfield forthe pre- vious question, the House adjourned and left the conclu- sion of the matter uatil to-morrow. Hiness of Quartermaster General Meigs.
