The changes contemplated In the Oabinet, the Utah quention, the Spanish policy, the Indien question, and all others that would ordinarily bo interesting to the goneral observer, have been laid. aside until the more important questions of offilal purity haveboen disposed of. The following subjects i ordor named, aro the only onea now undor die cussion-on the part of officials and citizens, high andlow. First, the Poland Committes and its report; second, the Oaldwéll Committes and ité roport; third, tha Wilson Committce and ita re- port ;. fourth, the Benato Credit Mobilier Com- mittes and its report; Bfth, tho Ways and’ Means Committes and its report on.the Judge Bherman matter. Of ‘thesn the greatest in im- portance is the Poland Committce, bub opinion on this cennot be long delayed. It is understood that & roport will be made to-nforrow. 'This gub- Joot is in everybody’s mouth, and as sction is to be had on this matter first, it is the most dis- cussed. Extraordinary efforis aro boing made on the ‘members of tho Oommittes to induce them to change thelr vordict which thoy had agreed on, namely: the expulsion 0f Ames and Brooks, the complete exoneration of Dawes and Boofleld, end the reporting of the facts to the Houso in the casen of Hoopdr, Kelly, Garfield, and Colfnx, leaving that body to take ihe conrse ‘which. may seem’ proper.. Whether this offort fails Wi bo soon. It is. vory cortain that ot the “first, " or At lonst s soon a8 the . Committoe had dedided, they intonded to oxpel Ames and- Brooks, and reliove the others with a .little bit of a locture and advice. There is no resson’ to believe that tho Committee have changed thelr minds, but the morrow will determine. If thoso two names are reported, there will be a greator oxoltomont on the floor of the House than has been Lnown for years. alf-a-dozen members are alroady pugu’ad for spoeches and amendmonts. Farns- worth will oppose tha ux&mlmon of anys body, . while Morgan, of Ohio, _will urge the” expulsion of everybody, = Randall and other Democrats have m}nopuud spooches, and it is undorsto that _ epeeches havo slso, beon vontemplated by Republican membera. I & direct vote is renchod there is not the alldghteut probability that anybody will be expelled, but tho lesson will bé 4 wholesome l()n:“rt: Congressmen and publio officers in the = . The Oaldwell mattor is still somewhat ‘in doubt, although the report of the Bonate Com- mittee will be made to-morrow. Four members of the Committoo are in favor of ‘expelling Son- ator Oaldwell, namely, Morfon, Trumbull, Al- corn, and Hill. Three mombers will not eign the report, and are underatood to bo in favor of whitewashing the Kansas Senator, although they will make no report in his favor. By some it is thouflzt that Oaldwoll will to-morrow resign his soat in tho Senate, but this isnot likely. Itis ‘arely possible that the seat msy be declared va- cant, but it is more likely that an amendment will be adopted to the cffect that, while his con- ‘duct has beon criminal, yet his aots aro boyond the power of the Senafe, Inasmuch as he has boon already admitted. 1t is difficult to eay what will be the result of the hard work which has been done by the Wil- son Committee, Enough has been already shown to make an interesting and sensational report, but their investigations have not been finished. 1t is likely, ‘however, that they will also raport &uch facts as they have ascortained, - ‘The Central Pacific Road investigation cannot be proseoutea to a further extont without sond- ing to Onlifornia for witnesses, which there is no time o do. : The three romaining- Committeos mflflunt to xéx:ch c:)&lm;nt auhlha gnn&tu'flr‘ed& dt:bfliar mmitteo, for the investigation of tho charges against Hemtors ~ Patteron g sud Harl and' others; the Houso Committas of Ways sud 'Means on the Iohby busincss of Judge Bhorman, and the Spocial Benate Commc}fiau on the Pomeroy bxlber;1 caso, These occasion less discussion than tho othors, be- cause they are of later origin than the other Committees, and have thus far devoloped no im- portant facts ; but they aro none the less inter- esting. . Thero isno question that they would devolop the moat important facts if thore was sufficlent time, Tho terms of both Patterson and Harlan expire on the 4thof March noxt, ‘whioh is only a fortnight honce, and at that time olao oxpires the term of Vice President Colfax, Therofore, there is not sufi- cient time to complote the. inquiry a8 to Patterson and Harlan, and oxpel them, to say nothing of the impeachment of 3fr. Oolfax, should it bo found to bo requisito. The 'want of time, a8 now appears, will save Pomeroy {from expulsion, as histime expires at the same let)x oud the committee having this investiga- tion in chargo, whother disposed to whitowash him or not, will not havo time to report, for Sboy hisvo Gearcoly yot bogunf tho inveatigafion. The probability ia that Lo will serve out his term and go back to private life without the bint of an. :::{aav:nhle roport of the Yuvestigation Com- The want of time will also save from impench- mont, the Judge of tho Unitod Bistos Srrentt Court of the Northern District of Ohlo, Charles . Bherman, for demanding paymont for lobby sorvices in conncction with the repoal of the tax on borrowed capital; but this is & caso in which tho next Committeo of Waya and Monns or the Judiciary Committos will be required to take ac- tion in the Forty-third Congross, This_is tho apparent condition of affairs to- n{f;ht. ‘Whetherthoy shall prove tobe correot after all the influences now operating shall have boon expended, tho morrow will domonstrate, Every clemont of influencoisnow being concentrated on the Poland Committeo to provent oxpulsion. It was known on Iridsy, and evon yostorday, that the dommittes would report in favor of oxpalling Ames and Brooks, If tho influonce now oporate ing iy successful, the report will not he inade. 1t it is not successful, the public may oxpeot other extraots from Amos' note-hooks, “THIE TWO PEI OENT OLADIS, 1t ia conceded that tho action of the Benate, yestordny, in refusing to take up the Ohio, Illi- fols, and fudiana 4 por cont billjoopardises the {fate of the moaguro for tho prosont scusion, al- though. the voto in le faver was deoidedly strong, TAOIVIC RAILIOAD INTEREST, The House Appropriation Committes will pro« caed to-morrow with tho farthor consideration of the Pacifio Railroad intercat question. ©Tho CHICAGO, furthor than the Senato In compolling thoso ronds to pay interest duo the Governmont.
