From talks of this sort those who desire to have on extra session entied by President Garfield have been somewhat encournged to-lny, and say that they feel confident that the proclamation will be issued vefore the close of the present week. ‘The principal reason urged by them is tha veto of tho Refunding bili by a Republican Presi- dent, which may enable : THE DEMOCRATS to make some political enpital unless Con- gress Is culled together to enact a new bill.
