WASITINGTON, July 14, 1870, @be War Cloud in Earope—Reported Com- encement of Hostilitics on the Part of France. Baron Gerolt to-night has received despatches from his government stating that the French ficet has @ailed and cormitted depredations on Prussian Commerce—inother words, that the war has com- menced. The Baron was at the Capitol to-night ana communicated the news, to several Senators and members, Great excitement was created in ¢: quence. @he Last Night Session of the Senate—The Presideot at the Capitol. After # busy day the Senate resumed its session at Dalf-past seven o'clock this evening. At nine o'clock ‘the President, accompanied by his secretary, General Porter, arrived at the Capitol and took pos sion of the clegant spartment set apart for his Bse on these occasions, Tie President wi also surrounded by his Mintste:s, Secretaries Fish, Belknap, Robeson and Cox, Postmaster General Creswell and Attorney Gencral Ackerman. As fast as bills were put through the fiaal stage of ‘their passage they were conveyed to the President, Who baving examined them appended his name. ‘During the interval of business a few uoportunant Senators did not fail to putin an appearance and oiten seized the opportunity to talk about matters which 4M was quite evideit were out of place and untimely.

A Busy Session of the HousemA “Great American Odjector”? at Work—Staughter of Railroad Land Jobs. ‘The house seeincd bent to-day upon watching the Rumerous jobs stowed away upon the Speaker's table and waiting an opportunity to get through un- der a sus} jon of the rules.

Fhe anxiety whieli sat upon the @aces of members as each pill was takea up Was some- hing remarkable. Hair of the Mouse leit their seats and ranged themselves in the space Just fronting the @eerk's desk, as if they thought that close prox:mity €o the Speaker would assist their schemes, It was musing to watch the anxious faces of me:ubers as @heir jittie bills were reached, m their turn, on the @peaker’s table. Tie members standing in front ‘Would call out as the measures they were inicrosted in were taken up, “That's all right, Mr. Speaker; but before Mr. Speaker could say the words, “The ‘Dill will be considered passed,” some fellow #m the rear would call out at the top @f his voice, “I object, Mr. Speaker” and down @Weuld go the bill and the hopes of the intcrested Party in front at the eamo time, The next object of the defeated was to discover the objector with a wlow of spotting him, Having lost all hope himself, ‘the member who had just bad bis littie bill defeated Selt very much hke giving this world and the other @ vengeance, and being thoroughly revenged upon ‘Me objector, whocver he might be.

The democrats being in the minority had very few ‘Dilis io which they were interested, which gave them Jelsure and an opportunity to pay off some oid scores ‘which have been run up during the session against he republican side. But the objections were not @onfined to the democratic side. Benjamin, of Mis- eouri, familiarly known as the “Great American Ub- Sector,” assisted by Kelsey, of New York; Julian, Alison and Arneil, were quite active on the republl- ean side. There was some bi!l about a railroad Shrongh Pennsylvania, which General Cake, of that Pate, undertook to liave made a special ordor for Pext December. That raised quitea breeze, James Brooks asked to have it read, but the Speaker @ecided that it conid not be read, where. wpon Brooks exhibited signs of martyrdom, and called out, “Division, division | Teliers, tellers ! Yeas @nd nays! Move to adjourn! Read the pili!’ all in one impassioned torrent of rage. The Spoaker tried %o drown Brooks’ voice by @ wicked attack upon his @esk with the gavel, but the bue aud cry which Brooks raised became contagious, and was taken up Dy Farnsworth, Logan aud others, The Speaker lost Bis temper, became confused and made half a dozen @onficting decitions In as many seco ids. Every attempt to get up a railroad land grant bill met with a prompt chock, The Clerk couid only get as far reading the title a3 “Bill to grant lands,” when a dozen objections came froin diferent parts of the House, At least adozen raijroal iand grant Ditls were thus nailed to the Speaker's tavle. Night Scenes in the Houso~The Tacrmometcr at Ninety-five—Tbe Last of he Approprie ation Bills Passed—Georgia Admitted. ‘The House reassembiod at balf-past elght o'clock, 4s usual on the last mig of the segsion the gaile- Fies were crowded by thea and womea, who, for the sake of secing the closing up @oencs, seemed willing to endure the swelter- ing heat, with the thermometer at ninety-five. ‘The conference reports on the army Deiiciency Appropriation and Miscellaneous Appropriation bills were submitted and adopted. In the latver 1s the appropriation for the New York Post OMice building. The only change in regard to this ap- propristion ia a proviso allowing the Secretary of the Treasury to avail himself of the contracts made last winter If he should see proper to do so, The amount of money appropriated 1s the same as _here- tofore stated, ‘ At ten o’clock the House was through with everything except the Indian Approprtatiommand the Georzia bills, The former passed the House in the afternoon and the House awalted the action of the Senate thereon, Towards eleven o'clock the galle- nies began to thin out, the heat being so intense that 1t wes probably impossible for the dense mass of people to endure it longer. Mr. Cessna, of Pennsylvania, proposed to bring up a contested election case, whereupon Brooks, Cox and other democrats called “Bring it Up now; give us anything to stop the jobbery that 18 going on tn these appropriation bills; but Mr. Cessna did not call up the case. Among the amendments that crept into the Miscollanevtis Appropriation bill ti conference was one providing that it shonid require two-thirds of the Board of Aldermen of this city to reject the appomcnents of the iayor, was to meet the dead- jock which has taken place between we Mayor and the Aldermen, a majority of the latter being radicals and the former being conservative. Subseuuently the radica’s discovered the mistake, and Dawes moved to reconsider the vote by which theeconference report was adopted, 80 asto strike out the objectionabie proviso, This Was agreed to, and the bill recormitted to the con- ference committee. After séveral delays Butler submitted the confer. ence report on the Georgia bill, Silence for once this ing prevailed in the House, and every mem- ber seemed to listen to the report, with Butler's ex- planation, Before Butler had proceeded far Farns+ worth rose to make a powt of order, but the report was concurred in, and Georgia is once more adinit- ted to representaitoa in Congress, The House has just adjourned—a few minutes aiter midnight—until to-morrow morniag, at nme o'clock. Another Lively Brush Between Fenton and Conkling. Fenton and Conkling had another lively brush to-day during the executive session of the Sena:e. Fenton rose to @ yersonal explanation, and stated that he expected to-morrow, without fail, to have in ‘ls possession documents which will show beyond doubt the new Collector of your port, Tom Murphy, assisted at the Hoffman meeting in 1846 and drew the resolutions which were adopted on that occa- sion, He also stated that he regretted the remarks made by Senator Conkling personal to himself, and had no doubt that he (Conkling) would regret them before long. Senator Conkling thereupon rose in his place and remarked thaf he had nothing to regret and nothing whatever to take beck mm the observations which he had made during his Speech on the nomination of Mr. Thomas Murphy. ‘This ended the discussion, 50 far as the execunve session is concerned, but whether any further steps will be taken remains to be seen. Fenton is not supposed to be altogether satisied with the result. In connection with this subject 1 am authorized to state that the reported remark of Senator Conk- ling, to the effect that Secretary Fish was among the republicans who officiated as officers of the Hoffman meeting in 1868, is Wiihout a shadow of foundation, Secretary Fish did pot attend the meeting, was not one of its oficers, and, on the contrary, yoted for Mr. Fenton. cnator Frelinghuysen Nominated as Mine ister to England -Sumner YFudiguant. nomination of ex-Senator Frelinghuysen as ster to England was sent to the Senate late this At four o'clock af executive session ed, when the question of the immediate confirmation or reference came up, and lei to a de- termined opposition from Summer. ‘The indignant r from Massachusetts launched forth into ale against the President, so tar were concerned, and aliuded to the withdrawal of Mr. Motley as an evi- dence of vacillation, which, in this particular case, Was specially objectionable to Charles Sumner, the mutual admiration community of Boston and Massachusetts, Samner then delayed the Senate witi & lively biographical sketch of Mr, Motley’s carter, canvassed his attainments and applauded his taients, Sumuer had no objection to Mr. Fre- linghuysen, but, on the contrary, spoke of him asa courtly gentlemen, Without coming to any action and after making a number of unimportant con- firmations at hglf-past four o’clock the Senate took a recess, Chandler made an effort during this evening, but failed to secure an executive session. Sumner's de- sign is to put of any action till the hour of adjourn” Ment, and thus prevent coffirmation. The fecling of the Senate, however, ts opposed to this, and as as appoil { soon as the press of business is over another aitempc will be made, The Correspondence with Grea.

The President, in compliance with a resolution of the renate, communicated to that body to-day a mags of correspondence relative to questions in ‘dispute between the Onited States and Great Britain.

After referring to the fact that the Spanish Cabinet took no exception to the demand for emancipation made by the United States as one of the bases for ita proffer of good offices, but, on the other band, gave this government repeated assurances that the Cortes would devise a acheme for the gradual and enlire abolition of slavery in the Island of Cuba, Secretary Fish continaes:— ‘Thus it was that in Jangary, last, having received an ints ‘mation it was supposed in M. the Insurrection was or would avon De quelled, I wrote to you as follows: —"It be- comes more it ery dey that this contest cannot be Meho sbolition of slavery.

President's Veto, The President yesterday evening sent a message to the Senate vetoing the bill granting bounties to the First and Second regtineuts of Florida cavalry, Secretary Fish to Remain in the Cabinet=— His Rosiguation Tendered, but Refused by the President. There 1s no longer any doubt that Secretary Fish is to remain in the Cabinet, and at the urgent re- quest of President Grant. It seems that Mr. Fish tendered his resignation three diferent times to the President, and each time it was promptly refused, When the President invited Mr, Fist to take control of the State Department the jatter accepted with the intention or only rematning 1n office for a short period, as he did not seek oMicial distinction, and preferred the quiectude and case of private Ife to the arduous labor, excitement and abuse insepar- able from a high Vabinet rocition. Not many months after assuming office, becoming tired of its cares and responsibilities, he asked the Pres:.lent to accept his resignation. The President pi led upon him not to insst upon it at that time, and Mr Fish consented to remain, When Secretary Borie withdrew some time ater, Mr. Fish again sought to retire, but was met with the same response from the President. Again, when Attorney General Hoar tendered his resignation and it was accepted, Mr. Fish called upon the President and urged the propriety of allowing him also to re- tire from the Cabinet. He told the President that after sixteen months of official life, during which he worked constantly from eight to sixteen hours per day, he feit his health breaking down, and must therefore insist upoa his resignation being accepted. The moment he considered extremely opportune. Hoar was about to retire, and if he (Fish) shou!d go out at tie same time it would only lead to one ex. cltement instead of two, as would be the case should he (Fish) withdraw at some future period, At the same time Mr. Fish presented the President with @ formal letter of resignation. The President rerased even to read it, and told Mr, Fish not to mention the sabject again, a3 it caused him annoy. ance aud uneasiness. Mr. Fish accordingly took back his letter, and nothing further on the subject has aince happened. I am informed that though Mr. Fish still would prefer the comfort of retirement still he will, in deference to the President's wishes, continue at the head of the State Department until the end of the next session of Congress, at least. There was not # particle of truth in the statement that he designed retiring noxt October, The New French Minister. M. Prévost Paradol, the new French Minister, ar- rived here this morving, and will probably present h‘s credentials to the President on Saturday. The Cane of tho Colored Cadet at West Polut.
