Lerd Granville’s Lengthy Nete—Let Have a Brief Reply. The note of Lord Granville has been re- eelved at Washington, and all that is at pres- ent publicly known of its contents is that it is lengthy, diplomatic, civil, British and unsatis- factory. John Bull hangs tenaciously to his oase, and persists in his refusal to recognize the right of the United States to put In a claim for consequential damages. In like manner he was ferocious in his determination & year or so ago not to suffer Russia to abro- Ic gate of her own will ono of the provisions of | the Treaty of Paris. Yet a very easy, cour- teous and diplomatic solution of the latter difficulty was found, and the acute Russian statesman was suffered to carry out his original intention while the British bulldog amused himself with the dry bone of a pre- liminary declaration. So it will bein the case of the Treaty of Washington. A friendly path will be opened out of the dilemma as sqgoo as the Genova Conference meets, and the whole matter will doubtless be left, as it ought to be and must be, with that tribunal. In the mean- time we recommend Mr. Fish to be as brief as possible in his communications with the British government, and not to suffer Lord Granville’s lengthy discussions to draw him into a wordy controversy. Our case is made, our decision has been an- nounced, and we have nothing more to do than to await the decision of the tribunal to which the matter bas been referred. We need no arguments to prove tle sirength of our position, If England keeps her treaty faith we shall be satisfied, whatever may be the judgment at Geneva. If England violates the Treaty of Washington we are quite pre- pared to tear it into pieces and to let the mat- iters in controversy rest for settlement in the future. All that Secrelary Fish can write or way to Lord Granville is to this effect, and the more briefly he says it, consistent with olvility, the better. Personal Intelligence. General S. FE.

The troops in the fleld, including some twenty thousand volunteers, were divided into two armies, one of invasion and the other of defence. rhe enemy was supposed to have effected a landing in Shoreham harbor. The movement commenced with an attack on the village and its capture after an obstinate resistance. The invaders then advanced on Brighton, ana, after repulsing @ body of troops, took up a defensive position, The army of defence, being largely reinforsed, took the offensive under General Horsford, and attacked the invaders with success, although the latter broke through Horstord’s right centre and created great confusion for a while, The tiring ceased at one o'clock, both sides having been impartially beaten. ‘The mook flgut was succeeded by the march past, which was not satisiactory, ‘The review, on the whole, {8 considered a failure, THE WEATHER AND THE SPRCTATORS.

Mr. Disraeli went to Manchester yesterday. On his immediate arrival he was met by a large con- course of citizens, who received him with enthu- Blastic demonstrations of welcome, A large deputation of conservatives marched in Procession to-day to the Pomona Gardens, Man- chester, where they presented audresses to Mr. Dis- Taell, expressing the hope that he “would soon come into power again,” In spite of a heavy snow and rain storm the at- tendance at the presentauon was immense, and Mr. Disraeli was repeatedly oheered.

Secretary Fish says the second note of Lord Gran- ville cannot be given to the press for the present, and all that can be sald about tt, at this time, is that it has been received, A number of gentlemen havo seen and read tt, and these sum it up curtly as long, tedious and eva+ sive; very polite, eminently diplomatic; but pecu- Marly British and entirely unsatisfactory. This is the whole story in & nutshell, and after this sums mary of its contents the note ttself will be very dull reading, Tho Secretary of State will not reply to Karl Gran- ville for some days, as time 1s required for the con- sideration of the pomts aud arguments of this un- usually 1ong diplomatio letter. From intimations in high quarters the government will adhere to its position of submitting its entire case, “claims for indirect or consequential damages?’ included, with a wiliingness to abide by the decision of those des- ignated by the treaty to effect an adjustment of the differences between the two countries, The: Seunte—Wado Hampton and the Kua Klux—Tho Utah Constitution{ndian Appro- printions, In the Senate during the morning hour to-day Mr. Robertson, of South Carolina, presented a letter from General Wale Hampton, J. B. Kersnaw and M, 0, Butler, of that State, denying the assertions of Mr. Edmands, of Vermont, that they wero identified with the Ka Klux, and demanding an investiga- tion, Mr, Robertson berated Mr. Edmunds for his declaration, and said that he did not believe that these gentlemen were ever in any way identified with that organization. Mr. Blalr came to Robert- Son’s ald, and read a letter from Mr, Reverdy Johnson, denying Mr. Edmunds’ declaration against General Hampton anu others, that evidence was adduced upon the trials in Columbla that connected their names with the Ku Klux, and that he and Mr. Stanbery had Withdrawn trom the trials because disgusted with the evidenco against their clients, Mr. Edmunds replied that he had reason to be- lieve that his statements were correct when uttered, and he believed them now. He had, he sald, been Informed of the evidence in possession of govern- Ment officials agatmst General Hampton and the others uamed, and he could not do else than be- eve it. Mr. Nye then presented tho State constitution adopted by the people of Utah and it was referred to the Committee on Territories, after which the In. dian Appropriation bill was taken up and occupieu the attention of the Senate tne remainder of tho day’s session, The House on Its Prerogatives—Tho Tariff as a Shutilececk—A Triumph for Our Pilotes The House resolved ilself into an indignation meeting to-day upon what is characterized by it ag the unwarrantable assumption by the Senate of tts prerogatives im sending back a tariff vill in tne shape of an amendment of twenty pages to a bill of three lines repealing the duty on tea and coffee, Mr. Dawes, chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means, offered the following resolution:— Resolved, That the substitution by the Senate, under tho form of an ‘amendment to a bill of the House for repealing the duties on tea and coffee, of a bill to reduce existing taxes, containing & general revision, reduction and repeat of tho Jaws !mposing import duties and internal taxation, is in con- flict with the truo intent and constitution which requires t shall originate in tho House pr , and that therefore auld substitute for the House bill be iaid on the \*Resolvad, That the Cleric of the House be directed to notiry the Senate of the passage of the foregoing resolution. Having presented the resolution Mr. Dawes sald the constitution guaranteed to the House, and ihe Houso had always maintained, its exclusive right to originate revenue bills. The Senate has frequently encroached upon this right, but has always veen resisted by the House, He claimed that the Senato had prepared @ vill covering tue whole subject of tariff and internal revenuo, and added it as an @mendment to a bill of two lines, and that toils was such an expansion of the Senate's right to amend a3 wholly to destroy the right of tue House to origl+ nate such bills, There was great unanimity of feeling upon this subject. Mr. Dawes was followed by Messrs. Cox, Garfleld, Butler and Hale; all of whom sustained the Position taken by him, Mr. Cox confined his re- marks to the unconstitutional action of the Senate, and quoted from various authoritics to sustain this view. ‘There were only nine who voted against lay- ing the bill upon tne table—Messrs. Archer, Con- nor, Hanks, Randall, Lewis, McCormick, Read, Ritchie, and Speer, of Pennsylvania, A large num- ver would favor the bili as reported from the Sen- ate if 1t stood upon its merits, and fear 1s expressed that the tabling of the bill impairs the passage of a general law to reduce taxes. The Com. mittee on Ways and Means will be ready to report a bill next week, when @ strong effort will be made to pase it, but it is thought that the Senate will feel so much incensed with the action of the House upon their bill that they will return the compliment, and refuse to pass any bili they may send to (nem. So, between the ofictousness and dignity of the Senate and the dilatory nfvvements of the House and the pressure Incidental upon a Presidential election, nothing may be done in tho reduction of taxation after all, Considerable interest was excited in the discus- ston of an amendment offered by Mr. Morriam, of New York, tothe bill for the better protection of life and property on board of vessels, proviaing that nothing m the bill shali interfere with State laws or regulations relative to pilotage, Messrs, Potter and Cox, of New York, and General Butier, of Massachusetts, attracted the attention of tho House by their vigorous defence of tho pilots of thoir States and the systems under which they acted, The amendment passed, and at halt-paat five P, M. the House adjourned, The Bowen-De Largo Contest.
