There are still no indicntions ns ta the probable result of this contest. The Republicaus are disposed to conslder it as very much tiore than a struggle over petty oflices, and they scem to think that they arc wmaking some strong polltieal points, and preparing the way for breaking the Solld South. 5o far ns the debate goes, the Demucrats aro eertalnly very much over- matehed, nlthough they sniounce thut soms of thelr stronger- men'wre holding themselves in reserve to continue the contest, The Ie- publicans are eager to have them do su. ‘Fhere seoms to b A GIOWING DISPOSITION among some Ropublieans to temporarily postpone the contest, and to have some ex- ceutive sessions, [u order to confirm sone of tha more huportant of the 100 nominations which now bluck the docket, VIlere Is great pressure upon Senators for aotion from thosy who have been nominuted, and there Is per- haps-greator pressure from those who have not been nomltnted to have the Sennte con- firm tho existing nominations, as it 1s under- stood that no more nppointuients of conse- quence will be made until action shalt have been had upon the prineipsl ones now pend- Ing, Now thut Mahone hus had an oppor- tunity to defing his position snd defond hims self, thore I3 wuch less on than ever for protonging the dendlock, The guestion ot principle—on which tho Republicans are clearly tu tho right and the Democerats In the wrong=can just us well be fought out after the hupurtant nominations are all disposed of. 1t the Denioeraty should then attempt to hold the Senate here for the sole purpose of preventing the majority from making changes in the Senato oflices, which, by all the law's of parliumentary bodles, the mafority fs entitled to muke, THIE: COUNTUY WOULD IULD THEM NESPON- BN, As tho maiter now stands, it Is the Demo- crats who gppear to bo concerned for tho public business, aud are making dally mo- tlons to go Into executive session, wiitle the Republleans are voting suchi motlons down, In order to press thelr fight for the oflices.
