JOSTER, OF ONIO, EXFLAINS TIR WKY AND ‘WHEREFORE. gpecial Dispatch to The Tridune. ‘Wasnixatox, D. C., April 5.—The meeting of the members of the Natlonal Republican and Conigr:ssional Committecs last night was called with tho idea of organizing & movement agalnst the President, The idea was to sanction tho theory of many disaffected Republicans that it 18 best to throw the President overboard on the threshold of the next campaign. The meeting was called by Willlam E. Chandler, who called ftto order, and cx-Benator Logan took the chalr. In tho gencral conversation there was severe and oretty genoral denunciation of the President and strong suppo’t for the theory that the parly could get along botier without him; that he had destroyed 1t i the South and erippled fein the North; that he did not treat promi- nent men (o the party with common decency that ko repetled those who wanted to be Irlead- 1y} that he was NOT PRANK OR TRUTIFUL 16 his dealings; that ne scemed to hiave no clear 1dcas of the situation or work of the Govern- ment. Messrs, Foster, Hale, Pago, and Phillios con- teoded that to break with tho President would be a mast short-aighted polley; that, whilo mat- ters might not be golng to sult then, many Re- publicans still think tho scnsible way of im- proving the situation was to seek to reatore and promote harmony. They rezarded o division of tha party on the Issue of hoatility to the Presi- dent as fatal to tho next camoa igo. The talk agalnst-the President finally becamo 0 unjust as to atir up Foster to a most vigorous reply.

Upou tho question of breaking with tho President, ho denounced it as a short-sighted aod wulcidal polley. Jlo warned those who were criticiving the President so acvercly that the veople would certalnly attribato these hostilj- 1les to peraonal disappointuments in regard to Patronage, and that peonte generally looked upon the present as an Administration with Bonest purposcs, and upon those In Congress wlm' Yers opposing it s probably soreheuds. Without reachlog any special conclusion s to 8 palley except Lo ngres that the Cougresslonal Committecshould bo at once reorganized, the meeting acjourned with the understauding that 4 foint caucus of Senute and flouse Republio- ns siould bo beld next Tu; 2 sider Lo sltnation, S e COOL AND CATLM.

Ben But- ler crosscd swords to-day with Bunsct Cox and was worsted. Although Gen. Butler was not personally victorlous, lie placed the Detocracy in an cimbarrassing situation. Butler moved as & question of privilegeto proceed to the clection of Doorkeever, and put {o nomination Gun, James Shiclds, o wounded soldler. This wove- ment was a complete surpriss to the Deno- crate. Many ot thicm favored the nomination of Stlelds. It was cxpected that the Bouthern Democrats would be so angry ot the removal of Polk that they would cuter Into almost any combinatlon to spita thelr Northern allles. It scemed at one timo that an alllance had been Tormed botween Republicans and Soathern Dein- ocrats on bebatf of Shiclds. The oopusition to the Butler movement was entircly contined to the Demucrats from the Northern Statcs. Party discipting, however, finally prevalled, aud But.

Bpecches wera made to-day by Mr. Bayard in favor of Thurman's hill, by Mr. Johnston, of Virginla, In support of L with some amendments, and by Mr. Sargent mgainst it. Mr. Conkling at 5 o'clock this afternoon ssked Mr. Thurman whether be Intended to press the bill to o vote betore adjourning. Night scssions, Conkling re- marked, are productive of mno good. The extension of tho debate into an- other week would mot binder legialation, s alt the approvriation bitls recelved from the Ilouse had been constdered, and s day or two would make no differcnce on a matte¥ which (s to extend over Liventy years; besides some Sen- ators DESIRED TO BE ABSENT to-morrow. Mr. Eaton agreed with Conkling. ‘Thurman remarked testily that the British Par- 1lament was in the habit of sadjourning to attend horso-raccs, and ha supposed the Senators de- sired to go to Chester to-morrow and witness the launch, Mr. Conkling replied that he res gretted Mr, Thurman could see any similitude between a horse-race and the launching of & great steamahip, Mr. Thurman sald that in his nine years' cxperience he had never known a hotly-contested question that did not require pight seasions to dispose of ft.

Tho yoto to-day, however, does not shiow this, It indicates rather the almost absolute certainty of the passage of the Thurman bill and the utter rout of the lobby. It I8 noticed that since the intimatlons In Benator Edmunds' speech about the labby tho prominent strikers have aisaopeared from the corridors, The pale, wan face of Jay Gould was theonly member of his lobby visibia about tho Senate wing today.

This ia supposed to be a plan to socurs the rout of the rooms out ot the Contingent Fund. It 14 claimed that it helps lusure secrecy, since no one would suspect that a great Congressional. luquiry wus in progreas inn common boarding-house. Those who have teen examined unite in the oplnion that nelther Finley nor his experts havo tho remotest idea of what they are about, The questions appear to ba preparcd lor them hy persons acquainted with the otlive, und the technical terms cmployed there, but theso seem to bo all Greek to Finley ond the experts, and neither of them are able hall the time to _comprehend tho mnswers they recolye, They are both the lsughing- stock for all who have had tho plessure of bearing them flounder around on the aubjsct of frauds aod trreqularitics In uvrinting, [t is & close race for distinction between Glover and Finley, and many Democrats besldos Banoing are becoming disgusted.

Tho most im- portant feature fu the proposed amendment to the Constitution of the United States is that the Electoral votes aud fraction thereol of each person vo'ed for as President lu any Stata aball be ascertaloed by muitiplying his entire popular voto there by the whole number of Electoral votes of the 8tate, and dividiog tho product by the apgzrezate popular vote of the Btate for all versons voted for as Vrosl- dent, and the quoticut shall be the num- ber of Electoral votes and the {raction thereo! to which such persan shall bo entitled, uslng for such fraction three decimals, and uo more. Tho amendment is desigoed to preserve tle relative power of smallur States. The Com- mittee say on this subject, the small Btates are now ovorslaughed by the prescnt Electoral sys- tem, It tas hapoened already that the vote of New York cast solld by & genoral ticket has de- clded the election by a fow thousand majority, sud has not only scttled the question for 1,000,000 voters of tho Stute of New York, but | agalust a majority the other way of 8,000,000, who are voters of the Unlted States. Tho prac- tical effect of tho Electoral system has been to increaso the reiutive jmportance snd power of the large States, aud the practice of votlag by & nn:n' ticket was introduced by the larwe Btats for that purpose, snd whea introduced ali were compelied to follow It. 3 Representativo Huoton, of the Committee, proposed an smendmont, in substance, that, i <is6 of dispute lo any State as to the Eloctoral vote, the election shall be decided by the high- eat judlivial tribunal of such State, sud the vote shall be counted, uoless both Houses shall ex- cludoft, Although wo scrivus objectlon was interposed by the Cowmittes 1o 1l smend- meut, tbe Comumittes did not vote on it. It is the oplulon of tLu members of the Com- mittee that the proposed awcodment to the Constitution will not receive the approbation of Congress, two-thirds of both branches neing {Inqulml to propose it to the Siates for adop- lon.
