WASHINGTON, Programme of Business io Be Transaeted by the Senate, The Waiting Lomisiana Semators to De Given the Cold Shoulder, The Caldwell and Patterson Cases to Be Dis- posed of. Collector Casey, of New Orleans, Anx- ious for a New Lease of Official Life. Special Dispateh to The Chicago Tribune. BESATE PROGRAMIE. Wasmxorox, D. C., March 9.—The SenateRe- publican Caucus has determined upon the order of business to be transscted at this session. The almost unanimous agreement, so far a8 tho Lou- isiana question is concerned, was that 1t should §o over, and that, consequently, tho credontials of Pinchback and McMillen should not be acted upon at this eession. _The point was made by leading Republicans, like Morton and Conkling, that, if this caso was once opencd for debato, there would be no end to it, and that it would ooly serve to make matters in Louisiana more unsettled than ever. It was also urged that if the Kellogg Government were continued in power until next Decembor, tho factions in tho State by that time wonld have bocome finally reconciled to it, and there would perhaps be no necesgity for further legislation. After a longthy discassion, it was also arranged that the cases of Caldwell, Patter- son, and Clayton should be disposed of at this session in the order.mentioned. Intwo of three cases there will be so much debate as to roquire at least ome week for iheir disposi- tion. Action with regard to Pattorson, on the report submitted tho last of the session by Senator Morrill, is demanded by the ex-New Hampshire Senator, who is now here urging it. Sympsthy for him is 8o great, and es- pecially now that be is ont of ofiice, that con- siderable doubt is expressed whother the harsh recommendations of the Committee will be adopted. Patterson says that as his case now stands his whole future is compromised as well as that of his family, and that until he can get an adverse voto of the Senate on the report, it will always be thrown up to him and_those who bear his name that he only escaped expulsion through the expiration of his term. THE COMMITTEES. The Democratic Senators addressed s foint note to the Republican cancus, yesterday, sot- ting forth that, as the minority ropresented now nearly one-third of the Senate, they were entitled to more membership, and especially on tha_imgonmt leading committees. e caucus decided to accede 80 far asto give the Demo- crats two and even three sssignments on the minor committees, but did not iuterfere with tho present arrangoment of the Finauce and Judiciary. NOMINATIONS. Bo_far as nominations are concerned the President. says that the BSonate has no need to stay here threo days. He au- nounces that he will only make appointments where commissions expire, and then only to xe- appoiut_incumbents, except in those special casos where public_policy may require a change. COLLECTOR CABEY, of New Orleans, whose commission expires in about ten days, is here looking after his reap- intment to thot lucrativo position. He hus Foon ssemrod that his commission will bo reis- sued, but he does not want his name sent to the Senate -during the present Executive session. With regard to Lonisiana affairs, Ossey gays that the President is extremely anxions for & compromise betweon the warring factions. The Kellogg goverument also desires to compromise, but assorts that the Democrats claim too much. The latter have offered to give the Republicans Kellogg as Gov- ornor Hif they will give the Democrats the Lieu- tenant-Governor, and then make an. even di- vision of the rest of the offices. This plan the Republicans rofect, on the ground that the Democrats would then proceed to immedistely elect Kellogg to the Senate, when the Demo- crats would securo the Governorehip. The Re- ublicans have not confidence enough in Kel- Pogg to bolleve thab if this temptation was placed before him he would resist, Casey says that the commercial clasgos are beginning to aatert their influence, and that it will be exerted in bebalf of the party having the de-facto pos- session of power. CIVIL SERBVICE BULES AND REGULATIONS to the contrary notwithstanding, there are sa many eager, hungry office-seekors Lero as at the beginning of any previous administration. The Prosident and hesds of dopartments are be- sieged and waylaid at every point. Not a few of the needy patriots are ex-Congressmen who have been thrown aside by their ungrateful con- stituents. While admiiting their unpopularity in their own localities, whero thoy sre best kmown, these gentlemen insist that the party owes them something, _and that they did good service for Grant and Wilson in the Presidential campaign. missions abroad, from Minister Plenipotentiary to commercinl agent, are most in_demand, but the mafority are not particular. They will take anything, and be thsnkful for it The Senators aro taking advantage of the absence of their colleagues of the House to carry off the lion's sharo of the offices. They do not find Grant as pliable now 08 he was four years ago. Houn- derstands himself and his place better, and he is decidedly more independent. In & recent conversation with a BSepator who wanted &n appointment made, the President is reported a8 having said that he intended to Liave some in- fluence himself with the Administration during tho next four years, Even go adroit & politician a5 Gen. Cameron bas discovered that under Gen. Grant's second term he cannot have every- thing his own way. In s recent effort to tum out tho United States District Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Cameron was incontinently enubbed by the President, and he i8 now of opinion that Grant intends_to bo stub- born, and run the machine fo suit ‘himself. PROPOSED WESTERN VISIT. 1t is stated that the President intends to make 5 visit to St. Louis some time during the sum- mer, to look after his property there. SYMPATHY FOR TIE CUBANS.

Patterson, late of Pennsylvania, now Bailing a8 United States Senator from South Caralina, whero it is Bllf&ed he secnred his elec- tion a la Pomeroy, is likely to get 1nto trouble at the fext session of the Senate. There is a document being placed in the hands of tho Senators which charges that Patterson, who, liké Caldwell, 18 a dis ciplo of Simon_ Cameron, paid 880,000 for & election ; that the money can be fraced LT from him to the partics to whom j =38 PS5 700 that his own admissions are snaicient to convic - . on.

Wasmyarox, darch 9.—Gen. McMillan and ex-Gov. Pinchback, Benators-elect of their re- spective parties, are still in Washington await- ing events, but the Senate is not inclined to take any action whatever on Louisiana matters during the presont exeentive scasion.

SPAIN, Mannm, March 9.—The debate on the bill dis- solving tho Aseembly, convoking a constituent Cortes, and providing for election for, members of tho'latter, opened in the Assembly yesterday. ‘Ihe President of the Chamber left the chair and made a patriotic speech, declaring that he should not oppose tho dissolution of the Assembly and the call for a constituent Cortes. Prime Minister Figueras oxhorted the Liberals to pursue a conciliatory conrse, and urged the Consorvatives to trust in tho Republic. The Assembly voted to take tho bill into con- consideration, by 166 yeas to 19 nays. A large crowd of people in front of tho hall, on learning tho result of tho vote, gave repeated cheers for the Republic. The fmparcial says the vote is the deatli-blow to the Radical party. It is expected that Henri Mortes, Sordoal, and Ogmllro, who voted against the Government, will resign. ‘I'here i8 o romor that the President of tho As- sembly has tendered Lis regignation.

New Yorx, March 9.—Tho impending strike in the various trades seems to be near at hand. The Eight-Hour Leaguo claim to have $100,000 in the treasury, and say they have doubled their means since the struggle of last year. The carpenters, plasterers, stone-masons, bricklay~ ers, stair-bailders, plambers, and house-smiths are now working on the eight-hour system, and, though eatisfied with the prosent wages, will striko against the contemplated return to ten bours. The piano-makers, upholsterers, var- cabinot-makers are working secret meet- uishers, and ten nours, but aro holding ings to discuss the expedioncy of another eight-hour strike. ~Over fifty different Trades’ Unions in New York are committed to the eight- Lour movemeat, and the probabilities ara that ‘many branchios of manufacture will be disorgan- izod this upring and summer.

About 10 o'clock yesterdsy morning, Petor 3 boy of 11'years, emplosed by Jona- "Andorson, & tenant on the farm st Now- tou village, went into the barn to get some hay, when he discovered & human hand protruding from the haymow. The body proved to be that of 3 man about 35 years old, 5 feet 7inches in beight, rather slim,” with well-marked fen- tures, lght complexion and sandy hair. He was dressed in a checked flannel shirt, Cardigan jacket, striped pauts, black felt hat, and new rained lesther boots, which came up to is knees. In a black cloth valise ho had a broadcloth dress-coat, several ghirts, and minor articles of wearing apparel. His pockets con- tained nothing but a wallet, in which were 877.87, in two packages, wrapped in newspaper, and wrapper being a piece of tho Flushin Times of the 26th. ~ Several cabbage sinmps an pieces of head were found, indicating his means of subsistance while in the barn, where he had undoubtedly frozen to death, during ome of the cold nighis of the past mont) The possession of the new boots and packages of money; with the peculiar wrapper mentioned, together with tho fact that having 80 much money about him he should profer to hide away in & hsy-mow in severe weather rather than secure a comforis- ble lodging, seems to warrant the belief that he was an accomplice, if not, indeed, the &rincipfl perpetrator of the murder at Little eck.

REFORM IN THE SCHOOL-SYSTEM. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribunc. Sm: Of all the reforms needed in the public schools, it seems to mo thero are none 50 promi- nent as the one curtailing the hours of stady and confinement for little children of from 8 to 12 years,—six hours a day of severe, constant drill, going over in the afterncon the work of the morning, when at least one-half of that time should be spentin absolute freedom and exercise, preserving as long ss possible the freshness of childhood, instead of blighting it prematurely by overwork and ceaeeless worry. A child under 12 cannot do much more than to memorize. He cannot reason; he cannot draw from facts proviously nnderstood conclusions that will establish other facts,—a method so helpfal to maturer minds. His learning must be only such as can be acquired by the effort of memory alone,—quick and retentive enough in most children, and, therefore, the more easily imperiled by too much strain, 1 believe most of paople agree that, up to 8 less made oxceptionally precocions by Nature or art;and Thold that that much he will learn as woll, as thoroughly, and more cheerfully, and arrive at the propor ago for serene mental disci- pline with intellect fresher and more amim- aired, if his estlior years are devoted less to o inflexible drill of the school-room, sad more to childish sports in the openair, laying o basis for sound health snd cheerful femper. T would recommend that-one-half n day bs given to school-exerciso, with slternate scholare, perhaps, if need be, after the manner now prac- tised in the lowest grade ; or, as is tho custom in many other cities, having_school-bonrs from 95 m. to 2 p. m., with one intermiseion. 1 am not alono in my convictions on this sub- ject. Ihave conversod with many parenis, and they all agree that tho cxisting maucgement is an ovil, and an outrage upon the little ones. Yet no one’could sce a remedy. Bnt it does secm to ‘me that, concerning thoso_institutions designed for the public good, the public bas a right to do- cido azainst noy regulation that results in oppo- sition to its good. Aside, too, from s consideration for the pu- pil, the teachers would also be included in the enofits of such a chango, and, from being less confined in the performance of duties, irksoma often from their monotony, would become lesa irritable, less oxacting ; and the school-room would be more likely to bo s cheerful, agreeable lace to both tencher and pupil, instéad of the adod work-honse it too often now is to boh.
