NEKAL SHERIDAN. The tone and temper of yesterday's Intel!i. gencer, epeaking ostensibly for the President ‘With reference to General Sheridan, tells of | the inteneified labors of the Sharkeyites since the President's return, to compass the remova) of that distinguished and most serviceable officer. If by any mischance Uongrees sal) not have embraced @ quorum at noon to-day, | there can be very little doubt that Sheridan’ removal will take place, to be followed as surely as the sun will rise to-morrow by im- peachment legislation early in December next, Regarding these two events as likely to be equally unfortunate for the public interest: our eincere hope is that at noon to-day a | quorum of both Houses will answer to their names, If there be an extra session ai this time we do not believe the Sharkeyites wil; be able to induce the President to remove General Sheridan. sf not, there is no telling what will be undertaken here in behalf of re- troaction between this time and Decembe next. The South, unfortunately, is to be the ultimate and chief sufferer, as in every case where the Sharkeyites have essayed to 1ater- pose the shield of their assumed influence and the President's policy in benalf of allegea rights of tha! section, the existence of which the Jaw making power expressly and signaily ignore. eee ee Sl eB CONGRESS TO-DAY. When the roli was called in the House to- day, 120 members answered to their names. As eighty-tbree constitute a quoram, it will be seen there was a full working organization present, and something to spare. It had been reported that the Democrauc members would net answer to their names, with the idea or defeating a quoram, but if they ever contem- plated such tactics, they probably Abandoned them in view of the fact that enough Repub- lican members were present to constitute a majority of the House. The Democrats con- sequently answered at roll-call, and quite a | number of the leading members of that party ‘were present—Messrs. Fernando Wood, James Brooks, Obarles A. Eldridge, Marshall of Lil., Mungen of Obio, Glosbrenner of Penna., and others. Most of the representative men of the Republican party in the House were present. In the Senate, only Messrs.

The galleries were not more than fest against the | Balt filled, probably owing to the extreme heat—the thermometer on the floor indicating 84 degrees.

He then directed the Olerk to read the concurrent resotation of 29th Ree last for a recess. jen T. McPherson, the Clerk, then read the reso- ration. The Speaker then direc’ed the Clerk to call the rol! of members, to ascertain whether a quorum was in attendance. While roll was being called, a message was Teceived from the Senate annouuciog that a quorum of that body was in session. The message was loudly applauded by members. The ‘Speaker stated, after the roll was callea, | that 120 members wasin attendance, and he di- rected the Clerk to notify the Senate of the fact of a quorum being in session—adding ¢ before proceeding to business, the Chaplain ‘would offer prayer.

The protest was accompa- nied, he said. by another protest from citizens | of the fourth congressjonal district of Ken- | tucky, sustained by affidavits proving the facts alleged. He asked that the papers be read, and moved that J. D. Young be not now sworn as a member of the House, but that his creden- tials, together with such Papers, be referred to the Committee on El Mr. Logan offerea the following as anamend- ment: Whereas there 18 good reason to believe that in the election recently held in the State of Kentucky to the 40th Congress the legal and loyal voters in the several districts of said State have been overaved and prevented trom a true expression of their will and choice at the polls by those who have sympathized with, or actually participated in, the Inte rebellion, and that sueh elections were carried by the votes of sucn disloyal and returned rebels: and whereas itis aileged that several of the Representativer clect from that State are dis- loyal. Therefore, Resolved, That the credentials of all the members elect from the State of Kentacky shall be referred to the Committee on Elections to report at as early a day as practicable; and that pemding the report of said Committee none of said members shall be allowed to take the oath of office and admitted to seats as such.
