WASHINGTON. Artful Dodges of Arkansas ; Politicians. Disgraceful Struggle Senatorship. ‘The Income Tax Repeal Bill—A Question of Constitutional Prerogative. for the Another Move in the Settlement of the Alabama Claims. ‘WASHINGTON, Jan, 81, 1871, The Alabama Claims. The Senate Committec on Foreign Relations began Mho consideration to-day of that part of the Message of President Grant relating to the adjustment of the Alabama claims. The discussion, however, was of @ general character, the committee not having re- eived the bili which Secretary Fish was requested to prepare, together with such facts about the ‘@mount of the claims as he may have. The main “proposition is whether or not the government shall agsume and pay the demands of private claimants and then settle the score with Great Britain at its own convenience. It is provable that this will be before the committee for some time before definite action igRaken, All the parties concerned, the holders of the claime growing out of the depredations of the rebel cruisers, the Secretary ef State, together with the President, and, it is believed, a majority of the Com- ‘Milttees of the two houses on Foreign Affairs, favor the plan proposed by the President in his Message. ‘The chances are that this will finally be adopted, Arkansas PoliticeDisgraceful Straggle for Ofiice. Private advices from Arkansas Indicate that a very formidable opposition to Governor Clayton has aprung up in the Legislature since his recent elec- ‘Won to the United States Senate two or three weeks sinos, it seems to have arisen mainly on vhe ques- tion of the succession to the Gubernatorial chair. ‘The democratic mem ers, backed by the republicans ‘nimical to Clayton want Lieutenant Gov- ernor Johnson to be Governor. Clayton has always been opposed to this sug- gestion, and prior to the Senatorial election ‘endeavored vo have Johnson onsted from his seat on | the ground that he nad not subscribed to the oath of office within the time specified in the State constitu- tlon for the performance of that act. About the time | Of the election for Senator, Clayton effected an ar- rangement for securing the democratic support on | the joint ballot for Senator by agreeing to refrain from any further proceedings against Johnson. Alter his election it 1s charged that he determined to ieregard this agreement ana recently had introduced in the lower House a measure providing for the impeachment of Johnson. This | Was laid upon the table by a strong majority vote. | 4 bill introduced in the Senate a few days previous Geclaring vacant ail offices the incumbents of which | had not taken the oath within the prescribed time met with a violent opposition on the ground that it wonld affect several excellent officers in different Sections of the State ae well as Johnson, against whom the opponents of the bill charged that it was Specially introduced. State Senator Mallory, the | mover of the bill, is Clayton’s choice, and | the programme is said to be to ‘com pel Johnson to vacate his seat, elect Mallory to the Presidency of the Senate, which po- sition would entitie him to the Gubernatorial chair upon Johnson’s retirement. Governor Clayton and is friends assert that as Johnson cannot legally | hold his office Mallory has the strongest claims to | Mt, as he is by them considered one of the strongest representative republican politicians in the State, Meanwhile Jonnson holds that he was legally quall- fied at the proper time, and that he cannot be ousted under the Clayton programme. Should he maceeed in muintatning his position continue to recetve the support of the enemies of Clayton, whe have recently rallied round his standard, it will result in a terrible de- moralization of the Clayton wing when that gentie- | man comes to the Senate, Ittsrumored here that the friends of Senator | McDonald, of Arkansas, who refused to enter the | Benatorial contest against Clayton on the ground | that the Legislature was not legally constituted, | will make a strong and united effort to prevent him | from being admitted to his seat, and will demand & thorough investigation into both the State election | st which the members of the Legislature were | chosen, and also into the circumstances of the | organization and subsequent action of that body in the matter of the Senatorial ballot. With an eye to | the posaible success of this measure, of which the | and | to—First, one assistant adjutant general, or an officer to act In that capacity if none be assigned; second, the authorized number of aldes-de-camp of ‘the commander's grade; third, one medical director, who shall algo perform the duties of attending sur- geon of the post where the headquarters of the com- mander is established; fourth, an officer of the Quar- termaster’s and one of the Subsistence Departments may be designated as ch efs of those departments at any headquarters, provided they also perform depot or purchasing duties, but no additional officer will be allowed for that purpose without special au- thority; fifth, an oficer of the Pay Department may be designated as chief paymaster, provided he also makes his proportion of the payments within the command; sixth, when an officer of engineers or ordnance ts required temporarily for a specific duty on the staff of a division or department com- mander he will be announced as such in orders from the Adjutant General’s OMce, and will be re- Meved or transferred by similar orders; seventh, oMcers belonging to the Inspector’s or Judge Ad- vocate’s Department, who have heretofore been assigned from the Adjutant General's Office, will continue as assigned, but no additional line officers will be allowed for the duties of those departments, All line oMicers now attached to the staff of the several headquarters, except those above designated in the first and second sections of the order, will be immediately relieved and ordered to join their regi- ments, and ail staff officers now attached to the headquarters of division and department com- manders not included in this order will be relieved and ordered to report for instructions to the Adiu- tant General of the army. Abolition of OMices in the Navy. A conference committee has been ordered on the bill to abolish the rank of admiral and vice admiral in the navy after the death or resignation of the pre- sent incumbents. The result of the con- ference committees will probably be an amendment to the bill, providing against the promotion of commodores to be rear admirals, It 1s complained that there are too many rear admirals, more than there are appropriate commands for, and that the number sheuld be re- duced by deaths or resignations, as they may occur. Reissue of National Bank Notes. The Committee on Banking and Currency agreed to-day to report a bill providing for a reissue of the national bank notes of the denomination of ten, twenty, fifty and a hundred dollars. They also agreed to insert a clause in the bill requiring the work to be done in this city at the Treasury Denartment. It has heretofore been done by the National and Continental Bank Note companies of New York. Several gentlemen rep- resenting these compantes have been here to op- pose the bill which has been agreed upon by the com- mittee, The committee, however, after a careful examination of all the facts and figures relating to the matter, came tothe conclusion that the work could be done cheaper and better at the printing bureau of the Treasury Department, Annual Report of the Patent Ofice. Acting Commissioner of Patents General Duncan sent to Congress yesterday the annual report of that office for the year ending with December last. The amount received on applications for patents, re- issues, extensions, caveats, disclaimers, appeals and trade marks was $603,775. The amount re- ceived for copies of specitications, drawings and other fpapers was $46,559. ‘The amount received for recording assignments was $19,122, Making a total of $660,456. The total amount expended was $657,147, which includes $404,143 paid for salaries, On the 1st of January a balance remained in the Treasury of $643,355, The number of applicants fer, patents during the year 1870 were 19,171. The rum- ber of patents issued, including reissues and designs, were 13,821, Of these there were granted to sub- jects of Great Britain, 349; France, 89; other foreign subjects, 206, Exportation of Distilled Spirits in Bond. ‘It 1s understood that tne Commissioner of Internal Revenne is in favor of the passage of an export law allowing the exportation of all distilled spirits in bond for payment of tax, the same to be shipped from the place of manufacture in bond to the export bonded warehouse at the port of entry, and from which it must be exported in stx months on the exe- cution of an exportation bond and on paying the tax on the difference between the gauge of the spirits at the time of exportation from that shown by the original gauge, less such per cent for loss in trans. | Portation as the Commiestoner may allow. On proof of landing in a foreign port or total destraction at sea, a drawback of twelve and one-half cents per gallon to be allowed. In fact, the bill has been pre- pared already in the Internal Revenue Office to this end, which wil! shortly find its way inte the hands of the Committee of Ways and Means for introduc- tion in the House at an early day. Bouded Merchandise Duties on Gin and Rum. The following 1s the joint resolution yesterday signed by the President: — j Resolved, &¢c., That all foreign merchandise which arrives at a port of the United States on or before the 3ist day of December, 1870, and not entered or transferred to a public store or bonded warehouse, shall be entitled to the benefits of the twenty-sixth section of an act entitled “An act to reduce internal Governor,has information, it is understood that he 4g moving4o secure an adjournment of the State | Tegislature, prior to the ist of March, to the end that in theevent of the discovery that bis chances for a seat fa%the Senate are hopeless he could with. raw, and, sill holding his seat as Governor, have in his hands the appointment of some one of his | friends as S\ynstor. These are the facts in the case, and it seems \ery evident that the republican party Of Arkansas, ¢lisintegrated as it is, will meet with a tate similar to ¢that it. several other Southern States unless measnis. ate very speedily adopted for reatoring harm: iy. General herman on Ku Klux Outrages. | | | | ‘The Secretary of ‘War to-day transmitted to the | Senate, on application from R.L. M. Camden, of Philadelphia, for 1 ulitary protection for the empioyés Of an association «mgiiged in gold mining in York county, South Caro \inu, -against the outrages of the #0-Called Ku Klux Klan, and invited attention to the remarks of the Gene tal. oi,the army thereupon.

A Nice Question of ¢ eustitutional Preroga- tiv e- ‘The Senate Finance Comn Uftee,.in anticipation of | ‘the return by the House of ti \e\bill to repeal the tax | ‘on incomes, held a meeting ti Us: morning and agreed by @ large majority to stand'-®y the action of the Senate. Subsequently, when tke bill came over from the House, Senator Scott moved | that the Senate insist upon iff right to origi- mate and pass a bill to aeci me taxation, and | ‘that a committeo of conference | ‘requested, This ‘was agreed to, and at a later per iou of the day the House granted the conference, The question to be considered and settied in the com.'iitee of confer- ence does not relate to the bill to repeal the tax on incomes, but to the right of the Sena¥e'to originate end pass such a bill. Mr. Hooper, with otiser mem- bers of the Ways and Means Commitvee, hola that the Senate infringed upon tae rights vested in the Hevse by the constitafion in originating this bill. While it is not siwrictly a bill to raise revenue it has.a close relation to aus Dbilia, ‘The Senators, on the piner hand, hold that this Js simply @ bill to repeal a portion of an existing luw, and as such could originate in the Senate as weil. as ‘im the Honse. Should the position of the Senatepe maintained, the bill to repeal. the income tax wiil bo | brougut before the Honse, and the chances‘ are that it will pass, thuugh the members from the country districts are generally against it.

The Fenlan exiles at Sweeny'’s Hotel were yes- terday employed from an early hour in the morning until nine o'clock in the evening receiving visitors and attending to the calls of deputations. It seems as if the entire Irish population of America were intending to make New Year's calls upor the gallant exiles. If pny one of the band of fourteen should find it mecessary to leave the hotel but for half an hour ho is Instantly missed, and when the deputations arrive the most anxtous inquiries aro made as to his whereaboute during his absence. Every person calling desires to know when the procession which 1s designed to do tnem honor is to take place, and every one 1s asking in addition when the public reception tn the City Hall ts to be given by the Mayor, Aldermen and other municipal authorities. About this processien, which 1s to come off—if it does come off soon—tn the terribly slushy streets, there 1s much aifference of opinion among the 400,000 Irishmen who reside in this city. The Irisn societies of New York have a roll of ahout fifty thou- sand members, all of whom will have to turn out on the day of the procession. “Let us look into this thing,” said a well known Irishman to a HERALD reporter yesterday at Sweeny’s, “Let us look at the expense of a pro- cession in the streets, that are just now worse aud more dangerous than THE BOG OF ALLAN. Say that fifty thousand men will win out m green scarfs and bearing handsome green banners, with bands of music and drum corps. Take out your note book and give the figures and then we will see ‘What it costs’? Forty bands of music. . + $8,000 Filty thousand days’ nm the earnings of Aociety men will average two dollars and fifty cents a day for each man wbo joins the parade—ol cvurse it ‘will be @ fine one, + 125,000 Filty thousand pati r dollars @ pair—that will be useless aiter- ward excepting to turn out on St. Patrick’s Day ese Each parade will take on an average five drinks to Grive the wet out, leaving out, of course, the twenty-five Father Mathew societies, of whom ‘hot @ man ever takes a drink even un er the most provoking circum- stances, each drink averaging ten cents, and leaving out the hot ones, which are fiiteen cents each. Wear and tear of fift at a rough estimate. 200,000 Total...., 368,000 “Now, pai id ihman, “here 1g. a grand total of $368,000, and Iam sure that Iam rather under than over the figures. Supposing that some people may object to the estimate for pants and drinks, yet they cannot deny that the FIFTY THOUSAND DAYS’ LABOR be lost, which 18 $125,000, tere 1s the money for the bands, and, as are mostly Dutchmen, they will not give their vty? and blasting for nothing. Well, that’s $8,000 more. Then, don’t you see, We have $133,000; that’s a great deal of money. Now, supposing that each society man gives 8 day’s labor—ayeraging them all at $2 50 a day—as a contribution towards those Fentan exiles, who have made the name of Ireland honored, uy their steadfast sufferings in every quarter of the werld, and suppose they piace this large sum of oie SP oe ree the hands of William R. Roberts, Richard O’Gorman and John Mullaly, or some other patriotic committee of gentie- Men, Whose word is as good as & bond, to the credit of General Bourke and O’Donovan Kossa, for the benefit of the fourteen released prisoners, Would that not be a wise thing? Would not every one be sl satisfied? Then, no man will lose hts job or feel TIRED TO DEATH, or catch & bad cold that may make trouble for his family. And if there 1s areception to be given, can it not be given at the City Hall, with the Mayor to receive them and every one of the fifty thousand men and their wives and children—can they not all go down aud shake the exiles by the hand at the hour most convenient to themselves and the exiles?” The above questions and figures are offered for the consideration of those gentlemen who have charge of the procession. One hundred and thirty-three thousand dollars, divided among fourteen men, would give A VERY HANDSOME SUM to each, over thiriecn thousand dollara a piece, and would be far more substantial than all the bauds ef mustc and all the banners in New York in review. Late in the afternoon a deputation from the Knights of St. Patrick, accompanied by their presi- dent, Mr. John Mullaly, waited upon the exiles at Sweeny’s Hotel. The committee was as follows:— Henry Hughes, William L. Cole, Captain John Mit- chell, Hugh Blesson, John H. Harnett, John Burke, Peter Woods, Bryan G. McSwyney, James J. Trainor, Cornelius Farley, Hugh Ferrigan, John Duane, Maurice J. H. McAleenan, John Tucker, Francis O’Ryai Dwyer, J. M. Dunn and Professor John Boyle. Besides the committee of the Knights Congressman William R. Roberts on behalf of Tammauy Hall, and Captain Costelio, Stephen J. Meany, Denis Eagan and the brother of Captain McClure were present. The meet- ing took place in a private parlor of Sweeny’s Ho- tel. The exiles were ranged ina circle, with Gene eral Bourke and O’Donovan Ros a In the centre. The chairman of the committee, Mr. Jonn H. Harnett when silence haa been restored, stepped forward and read the following address, which had been written by Professor John Boyle:— GENTLEMEN—In the name of the Society of the Knights of St, Patrick, we have come to offer their acknowledgment of your services in the cause of Irish freedom, and to welcome you to the hospitable shores of this Western republic. ‘To us, who are of the Irish race, the cause to which you have devoted your needs no'vindication, for, in the words of the iifustrious Meagher, “the history of freland explains and justifies ft, and the revolution of the Ameo can colonies, which knew not of tyranny but by anticipation, tna world-wide vindication of man's right to domestic gov- exnment. Every generation of Irishmen, since the shetr eduntry with England, hae, in ta way: in the tet er o the scaffold, protested againat ‘it, and in every age has the isiation of England been such as to intensify Irish hatred of her rule, until it has retitled into an enduring faith, that it must ever be destructive of social harmony‘and incom: patible with Uberty and progress. 6 But, wore it possible that Fengland coula now renounce her established policy, and that a prosperous provincialism could succeed It, still the pride of race, the love of independence, and of that place in the ranks of’ progress that dignifies na: tions, would protest against foreign’ ascendancy and ery aloud for the supreme nationality of the country.

Still, gentlemen, this amnesty is a concession, and though marred by thia painful thought must yet be to you a gratify. ing one. It 1s a concession to your manhi your love of Justice and your patriotism, ald to the ingiuence, your pre. fence at ‘home would’ exercise on the hearts of Your countrymen. It is a concession to the undy- ig hatred of ‘her rule that burned within your hearts, and that has sustained you through those long years in her dreamy dungeons, where hearts buoyaat with love and hope were done to death, where reason was dethroned, until the mother could scarcely recognize her transformed son, and the son knew not the mother who bore him.

Mr. O’Dono- van Rossé on Penge the handsome testimonial responded briefly, and thanked the Knights in a warm manner, stating that the exiles would ura suitable and fitting reply in writing as soon &@ DOs stvie.

Colonel Roberta, top Introduced the company to Mrs. O'Donovan Rossa, and each person present came forward and shook hands with that gifted and beautiful woman, who during her brave husband's egal had besieged heaven and earth for his release, she guests then adjourned to the dining hall, in cl whi A MAGNIFICENT BANQUET, with thirty covers set, had been provided by Mr. Daniel Sweeny, Sr. All the dtiicacies of the season, including game of every kind, entrees, potages, rotis and confections, enough to puzzie a Frenchman, were placed on the table in due succession, General Bourke sat - ai © head of the table, and Mrs, O'Donovan Rossa sat with her husband on her right and Colonel Roberts on her left, and likea true Irish lady attended personally to the wants of her guests, Addresses were made during the progress of the banquet by Joun Mullaly, Colonel Roberts, Captain Jehu Mitchell and General Bourke, and a poem called ‘ “WE ARE JRISH EVERYWHERE” was read by Mrs. O'Donovan Rossa amid thunders or ayplanas, every person present rising and lifting his glass aloft at the conclusion. After the banquet General Millan, Colonel Leon- ard and sixteen officers of the Legion of St. Pat- rick, in ful uniform, with side arms, waited upon the exiles in the upper parlor and presented to them the following address, which was read by General Millan:— To OUR RELEASED FENIAN BROTHERS WHO ARE EXILED IN ANBRIC, BROTHERS—The officers of the Manhattan Brigade of the L gion of St. Patrick bid you, on behalf of ourselves and the allant men we have the honor to command a soldier's arty welcome to your new quarters in this great garrison town of free America, ‘We look upon you asthe heroes of that vanguard of that Irish and American army that will tnfaillbly yet achieve the deliverance of our beautiful country from the toils of the reatest despotism that ever cursed mankind.
