Speclal Dispatch to The Tribune. WasmiNoToN, D. C., March 11,—Presldent Hayes' first campaign with the small factlon in the Senate which belleved it could force the Presldent to regard Its wishes came to an abrupt. close yesteriday by tho utter rout and uncondl- tional surrender of the whole array. Only o small number of 8enators were engaged in the combination to render reform !u tho Govern- ment o fallure at “the start of the Administra- tion, but these few scom to have felt certaln that they could rally cnough, tn view of the small Republican majority In tho Benate, to foree President Hayes to terms, They counted upon Democerats 80 voilng as to create tho . groatest discord In the Repub- liean ranks, and, consequently, fult sure they would unite agalnst tho conflruntion of tho Cabluet the moment It appeared that they could bo beaten by tho aasistauce of the defeetion among the Republicans, But, in spite of the ‘bitter feeling among the Democeracy on account of the struggle over the Electoral Cominission, only two Demucrats could be found to ignore the traditlons of the Benate under all partles and they promptly confirmed tho right of a President to clect bis own Cabloet-advisers, 1T 13 USKLE3S TO DI3GUISE TIE FACT that the reference of President 1Tayes’ nomina- tions to,committees, and the delay attending thelr confirmatfon, was a studied insult, at- tempted by a fow Beunators who had not been nble to dictate his constitutional advisers. The matter, howover, went further than this, and cuntemplated the formation of a TNepublican antl-Administration party. The macinne men, buminers, and ring reprosentatives of all kinds, cheered on the actors day and mght for about three days. Never hss the response from the country 80 -astonished men who count them- sclyes richly endowed with political sagacity as n tho present case. They were NOT ONLY ANAZED, “ but stricken with consternation, and yesterday, when a single objection would have carried con- siderntion of the hated nominatfons over till Monday, not o man was found to object, and only two to vote againat the threo men to whom they were most opposcd—Evarts, Schure, and Key. The reat were contirmed without o yea-and-nay vote. Upon thecases of - those named, Key was the firat voted upon, and received 58 aflirmative votes, 8churz 54, and Evarts 44 Each recclved two Domocratic negative votes—Thurman and Eaton, tho disgruntled Republicans contenting themselves with sulking and not voting, — THE GREAT PROBLEM. THESIDENT HAYRS WONDRUZULLY CONFIDENT, Bpectat Dispatch 4o The Tribune, Wasunaroy, D, O., March 11.—In conversa- tion with o Mumber of Congress on tho Louisi- ana and Bouth Carolica question, the President sald on Saturday that, In makiug up bis mind as to tho best course to pursue to sccure harmony in thoss Btates, ke should not himself be ein- Larrassed by the idea that he must do nothing that would scem to affoct fujuriously the valldi- ty of his own title to office. That mat- ter, he thought, lad been authoritatively oaud fOually declded. Ho did mnot beolluve that there would be any dlsposition to haggle abbut his title if bis Admluistration commended ltaclf by fts acts to the judgment of the coun- try. ‘As soon as tho mewmbers of the new Cabinet were falrly settled In thelr now places, hue should ask thelr careful consideration of the difileulty in the two States having conflicting Governinents, Ho was conlldent that, with thelr nid, some method o2 solving the problems presented would bo found which would be falr, Jjust, aud satisfactory to the people of thess Btates. 5 SRVEUAL WATS OUT OF TIESE DIVFICULTIES had been consldered by him, but Lo should not adopt uny method in a burry or without much moro dellboration than ho had as yel found tiue to give to tho subject. In all conversa- tiung which the President has bield with proml- uent meu on this vaxatious mattee by has ex- bressed tho same confldence that thero could be found & sufe and honorable road out of the troubles proceeding from a contlict of suthority. At tho same time Lo wade it clear thas the imalutcoauce of State Governweuts in the pres- enco of the Federal ariny is repugnaut to his {deas, aud cau uo longer be tolerated. Since the Cabluct confirmations, TUE ONLY OPEN QUESTION OF INTEREST counected with the extre sesslon of the Senats 1s whether Scnator Morton's Committee will re- port {n favor of Kellogg and Corbin, and scek tosccury thelr sdwisalon this scaston, Morton declines to say what his own intentions are In tuls regard, aud does uot wppear to wish to commit bimsclf in advance of his Committes. An attempt to seat the two clalmsuts 1o ad- vauce Of the scttlement of " the ditticulties grow- log out of the sival Btate Governments in Loulsiana and South Caroliva would ba sure to lead toa losg dcbate, and would prolong the session for &t lcast two or threo weeks. It is not probable that such ao attempt, it made, would bo successful. Whlle many Beoators hold that the Senato should decldo by its action which is the right Govern- meut in thoss Btates, and should so relievo tho President of the respunsibility, there are others who belfeve that s satisfactory scttlemeat can best be efferted by thu Exccutive, aud that, pending his sction, the Bevato should take no steps fu the matter. IT 14 ALMOST CEKTAIN that, if the Committee reports now, & motion t0 postoone the conslderation of the question U1 next Decewber will be carrlod. Should the Committee decide not toreport thisscsslon, there nppears to be no reason why an adjourn- ment cannat be resched at the end of the pres- ent week, or, at the earliest, some time next week. TIR MAGSITUDE OF PAST ABUSRS, Ono of the earlicst acts of President Hages will undoubtedly be to change most of the Federal officers In Loufslana. Some of the most important offices, it appesrs, are held by ne- groes who can pejther read nor write, 8o fm- portant an officc a8 the Naval Office at New Orleans is held by s negro, whose accounts come up to the auditing oflicers of the Treasury signed by his mark. This person is notoriourly unable to read or.write, and Is reported to di- vide the large emoluments of his office with outside persons, MORTON'S INTEKTIONS, To the Western Astociated Preas. Wasnixgron, D. C., March 11.—Senator Mor- ton will make aneffort to have the case of Kellogg, claiming a seat as Senator from Loulsl- ana, acted oo at this session of the Senate, and the impresaion %renlh thata favorable report on his case will be mada bya mn{:rll{ of the Cominittee on Privilcges ™ and Eicctions on Tueaday next, Itis nol certain, however, that the Benate will agree to sct on the case now, a5 & nunber of Republican Senators PREPER TO LET THE MATTER REST for the present, ratier than take sny action upan the vexed Loulsiand case which inlght be embarrassing to the Administration, when, by permitting Kelloge's casc Lo go over untll next scasion, it will be'determined with much Jess discussfon than If o ottempt were made to do $0 now, and, besides, the matter may be virtual- Iy scttled by tue Exccutive Department of the overnment befors that time, " It {s sald the Democrats will vote iu favor of postponing the ease untll the next sesafon, In view of ali the clreumstances, it is belleved that the Kellogg case will not be disposed of before NEXT WINTER. The same may he said of the Bouth Carolina contest. Bhould these cases go over, the apcelal eesslon of tho Scnate will provably close Lefore the end of the present weok, as the exceutive busincss can be disposed of fna fow days of carneat and early attention. BOUTHENN STATRSMEN WITI THE PRESIDENT. This evening the Frealdont was. visited by Benntors Gordon and Lamar and Representa- tive Gibson, of Louistaua. These gentlemen generally urged the withdrawal of troops from the State House in New Orleans and Columbia, and sought to know tho disposition of the President on that matter. Tho Interview was perfectly free. ‘The subject was dealt with " on both sides with entire candor. As to the Iength of time that will elapse hefore the fna! result is reached In this matter, Bena- tor Gordon, who had a very cordial oxpression of views from the Prealdent, doclines at present 10 cxpress any opinfon further than to suy that he s satisficd that no unnecessary delay will be had, and that not more thon o ‘few weeke will intervene before the final solution will appear. TIE BOUTII CAROLINA CASE. On Tuesday letters submitted by Representa- tives of Houth Carolina in the inierest of the Hampton Government will be referred by the Fresldent to the Cabinet. There are Intima- tions frot good sources that the subjeet of the dual Governments in Loufslana aud Bouth Car- olina will be matters of discusslon. OI1110. GEN, GARPIELD'S WITHDRAWAL. 3 Special Dispaich to The Tridune. Cotumous, 0., March Jl.—Candldates for Benatorlal honors seem to bospringlng up from nearly every sectlon of tho State, ncasly every Congressional District haviog some ane to put forward, ‘The probabilities to-pight are very muel more In favorof the Hon.

Therefore I will not bo a canufdate for United States Benator, Kxpross my thanks to those who bave desived to support me.”” The decision that Gen. Garleld has arrived ut cofucldes with tho well-kuown wishies of a large number of his warmoest frionds and adinirers, who were destr- oas that he should remain where he is, and use Dis best endeavors tostrengtbenthio now Admin- Istratlon in Congress.

Garficld has declded to withdraw from the contest for the successlon to Scuutor Slierinan's seat, and lust ulgt telegraphed Stute Benator MuLatn, of Warren, O, to that effeet. Lo takes this step at the President’s special request.

CoLuMuus, O., March 11.~lu & friendly con- versatiou with a geutleman fn this city, in ref- ercuce to sffairs jn South Carolina and Louls- laus, Mr. Matthews expressed hls views regard- 1oy the political situation of thoso Btates and the remedy for existing evils substautlally ny follows: On the question of recognlzing one or the other of the opposing parties in South Car- ollos and Loulsiaua as the proper State Govern- ment, ho ssys the Natlounl Adminlstration has “thie constitutlonal right to chooso which one It will recogulze, and the fact that one of them originated fu and 13 sustalned by wmob torco docs not in tho least affect this right of cholee by the Nationsl Administration. The Natiooal Government MAY RECOUNIZE TiN OXEWLICK MAY 3R CALLED TUR MOB PARTY, 1f sald mob party is actuslly strong enough to maiutain fteclf and establish & State Govern- went. The fact that Packard’s Guvervient waa the legitimate Government under the funus of law tuakes uo differeuce (£ the Adwlulstra- tion chiooses to recogulze the Nicholls Govern- went, which originated fu mob foree, and which 1s still sustalued by wob Lorce, the wain thing requisite heing strength sufliclent to maintain s Government. THIS IDEA NE ILLUSTRATED by supposing that a dissatisfaction with the Btate Government of Ohlo should arfse and should grow into such formidable proportions that it ahonld drive out and keep out the exist- ing 8tate Government. The National Govern- ment ‘would not have the rght to interfers with the military except to prevent actual Lloodshedding, and the Natlonal Governinent might recognize the new Government of Ohlo thus set up and maintained by force sgalnst the titular or regularly-constituted State authorl- tles. Col. Matthews 0ld not, however, say he favored the recogultion of Nicholls or Hamp- ton. He sald he wrote THE LETTER TO CHAMBERLAIN © - at the solicitation of Gen.

Col. Matthews suggested that the Commisslon thus golng to the disturbed States could induce the rightful holders of seats ln Nicholls® Legislature to Join witn the rightful holders of scats fn Packard's Lemslature. They would then have n quorum of richtful members in “both branches of the Lezislature, which could roceed to count the votes for (fovernorand de- ermine which one was elected.

MPAIR AND PLAIN.? d Vickiburg (Miss.) llerald. We placo before vur readers this morning Presldent Hayes' inauzural address. We bate no recollection of reading & more apparently sincere state paper. The President fs either atei- cere and earnest n the purposes foreshadowed, or ha Is one of the nust consummate hypocrites that ever breathed. We must acknowledge thut we do not belicye that he (s the Iatter, -We must admit that bis fuaugural {ndicates that he in- tends to do tho very best he can for the whole peovle over whum lie is called to rule. We congratulate Southern men that, in the whole of the Inaugural, there is not one word of bitterncss toward our people; not one word of that sort of abuse, and vilification, and slun- der known as the bloody suirt, Flad the Democratic party elected Mr. Oreeley to the Prestdency when he was their candidute four years ago, and had hie delivered the address we this morniug print in the Herald, It would have been aceepted from hitn with impliclt falth, a4 tully covering all the ncuds and wishcs of the Bouth, Had President Huyes been a woinpro- mise candidate, and had he been clected on a compromise platform mado to secure Southern supuort, ho could not biave spoken words that would [ndicate 8 kinder fecling than he spoke yesterday {n Washington City, — His languase toward us Is not only generous, it Is bold to the last degree. e seems to have burled in the past, as g wretched dream, all the vilo blood- and-thunder sterfes used by his party dusing the campalgn. He seems to discard all idea of force, aud determined to rely solely ou kind- ness, impartlality, and justice, The President is determined to _make a radi- cal chaoge in the policy of the Natlonal Gov- erntnent towand the Bouth, He s buld:’y em- histle In hisaversion to a Unlon founded on [orve, and earnestly desires o Unlon of peace aud good-will, His juaugural Indicates that, to sceure this great end, o willnot be restrained Ly party lincs. e also refers to our materiol necessitles, and we do not doubt that ne will approve any reasonable leglslation for the beue- At of vur scction. His rccommendation thst the Presldent’s tern of oftice ought tobe extended to six years, and unly one term allowed tothe sane man,witl attract great attentlon. The two-tenn plan has 80 tany very scrious objections that it ought to be abolished; and the President’s recommenda- tlo, or a stmilar vne, will doubticss be adopted by Congress Lefors auotner Presidential slec- tion. . Take the inaugural as a whole, and no South- ern man can reasouably complain at it. It Is as fairand as plaln ss the Democrstle platform adopted I this Bate in 1875, or the one sdopted at 8t. Louls In 1570.. It remains to be seen, lowever, whether his acts will bo In kucpluF with his address. Let us hope that they will, and that the Union of peace between the North and South, which {s desred by all good citlzens, will be fully realized. “TIE WUBSTITUTE ¥OR THE BLOODY BHIRT.'
