C., March 18.—Senator Bayard, who characterized the placlng of the re- peal of the Bupervisors’ law on appropriation bills a8 revolutionary, has now come out strong- 1y for the rcpeal of oll the taws insisted upon by the last Ilouse. He is not very clear ns to whether he will favor them i uttached to appropriation bllls, but he takes most de- clded grounds in favor of sweeply awny all the laws under consideration which guard the purlty of the ballot-box.” e says that he be- ‘lieves the Domocrats are to o man firmly united In respeet to the righteousucsa and the necessity of repealing these laws. In regard to the question of the President votoing o repeal, lio Bays:. “I ennnot belleve that he would feel war- ranted {u such action.

C., March 18.—The Demo- crats aro determined to organlze the Houso at the hazard of revolution. It was stated some doys sinco that, if party exlzency should re- quire it, Clerk Adamp, In moking up the roll of the new House, swould omit from |t the entire Towa delegatfon, on the ground thattlic clection should have been held in November fnstead of 1n October. There is now reason to belleve that that plan s being very serlously consldered, if 1t hos not already been determined upon, ‘The greatest danger which now threatens the Demo- cratic organization of the House Is that, in view of the scanty party majority, and of the very uncertaln clement made up in part of Green- backers and in port of possible Independent Democrats, the caucus Democratie nomines MIGUT NOT SUCOERD in obtaining an election before the House, As the matter now stands, the determinationof the clection of Speaker would raally be within the power of five or sixindependont Democrats, who might not chose to uttend the Democratic caucus, and who might- desiro to mako thelr power felt by casting their votes as Independ- ents, and thus be nble to'mako better terms for themselves in the composition ‘of the commit. tees. fie e Asmore Information {s“obtained from the absent memburs, It secms more probablo that the number.of Democrats who might o dis- posed to assume such Independent attitude is considerablo, and thut the number might reach the flve or six that, would, bu neccssary to declde the elcction. Anything, of course, that could tend to cripple the power of thls it~ tle handful of indopendents would make the Democratie orzanization more absolutely cer- tain of control, I the uine Town voles are omitted from the organization of the House, therefure, the quorum would be reduced to 139, und, with the quortin reduced to that number, fnstead of leaving it at 147 or 148, the Demo- crats would run less danzer of loslig the or- gautzations There I8, as s stated, reason to belfeve that the plan at first publised as a ru- moris NOW BERIOUSLY CONTEMPLATED, and thut Clerk Adams, when he speaks go con- tldently of his owa re-clection, dovs 50 with the {full kncwliedge of the judicial discretlon which the Constitution yives bim fn the preparation of the roll of the new Congress, WALL PAPER. .
