C., Jan. 8.—There fs an fm- proved fecling mantfested in the temper of both parties. The conviction galns ground that the Constitution and laws are sufficlent to solve the present difticulties without resort to violence, or to doubtful constitutional proceedinga. Benator Bayard, a member of the Compromise Committce, authorizes this statement : We cannot In thils countey live fn a atate of semi- revolution, We ust not permit the public mind ta be blinded by atrife and confuslon, If Hayes i inaugurated under the sanction of law thero shonld be na euggestion of violent reastance, I do not believe he will be Inaugurated In violation of the forma of law.

This Is to be sccomplistied by filibustering fn the Benate untll March 4, The outline of the plan iathis: Tho Senute Democrats will debate all questions in the progress of the count until the clock strikes noon, March 4, when they claim the opcration of counting the votes necessarily ccasce, Then the Benate Is to awear in its new members and elect a presid- Ing officer. By the time this Is sccom- plished, a mcssage will be recelved from the Becretary of State anoouncing & vacancy In the oflice of President of the United States, The newly-clected Preslient of the Scnate will take the oath of uflice and set the Government in motlun, The Senate has no rules ta lmit debate, and now that the foint rules are nbrogated there would be nothing they think to keen them from talking day and night to kill thue wnd prevent tho compietion of the connt. Shauld the Dem- overats decide Lo take the risk, it is a question whether they could earry out’ the programme, Bomo say a manifest attempt to delay the count to prevents its completiou would be o violation of the provision of the Conatitutiou that the votes shall be counted, and that us the Consti- tution overriden all rufes, 1t would be the dnty of the President of the Senate to interfere, check the debate, and order the count to pro- ceed.
