Dixpatch to (Yncinnaly Gaseite. 5 Wasaixoron, Dec. 23.—Senator Butler, of Bouth Carolina, and the friends of Senator Pat- tersop, of that State, are getting guits panicky about the proposed luvestigstion of the arrange- ment by which Butler belps to keep Patterson out of the Penitentiary, in returo for Pattep- sou's Yoto o seat hum in tho Senate. Putterson =0 himself {s too sl :S.knmuzh part In affafrs just at tho presei 3 21e, but e has some Tricnds who ar wa % & ¢ the situatlon closely, and the latter ad g fearfnl that the whole sccret history of fhis election to the Sen ato and his recent intrigue with Batler will be shown up, It satd that Just after Congress adfourned for the holidays, the Republican Benators who remained hero, with the exception of Patterson and ®onover, held a orivate conference regarding Butler and Patterscn. Butler offercd his resolution for au fnvestigation by the Committee on Privileges and Elections on the last day of the session he- fore the recess, and {4 was “objected to by the Republican Benators. Their plan, as develo, ed at this conference, {s understood to have beun to have Mr, Edmunds offer a resolution for an investigation by the Judiclary Committee, as soon_ as tho Henate reassombles, It s al- legod h'y Datterson’s fricnds munds has Leen In corres Wade #ampton, and that there is a sort of an aliiance betwween Iampton and the Republicana in the Senate Chamber, Iampton being bent on pettin Patterson ont®I tlie chamber on_the charge of bribory, and tho Re- publicans beine determined to declare Butler's seat vacant. This cannot, of course, be dono without the vote of Senator Conover, and there 18 every resson to believe that Conover will atick by Butler in the future as he has done thus far. Hut the Republlcans, nll.houfin they may not get Butler vut, will undoubte l‘ hava the foveatigatlon, and make it very ung:nnnt for tho new Scnator. {f Butler could unseated by the vote of Conover, it s probabls that Corbin would bp scated, and both Hutler and Tatterson have becume suddenly very anxious to have Corbln Investigated. They afleze that he can be proved to be corrupt. Auother fea- ture is the difticulty between Hampton and But- lcr, which Is growing to be a very serluus one, on account of Hamnton's Y:"hw"m in expos- ing Patterson. Butler wants Batterson to atay Eere until the end of his term, so that Hampton may et in, Uatterson's friends are ap- pealing to Democratic Senators to take up - his cause dnd prevent him from be- ing cxposcd ana cxpelled from tho Scnate. ‘They ore using promises to the Democrats as well as threats to the Republicans, and it Tooks s {f Patterson would go clear over to the Dem- ocratic side in the Senate If ho remalns there at all.
