The whole trip was pleasant in every particular Col. Barr says it was remarkable the amount 0 entbusiasm that Mrs. Hayes created. She was called for as much as Gen. Sherman or Pre3t- dent Hayes. : ARMY ORDERS.—The leave granted Captatn A. M. Randol, ist artillery, 1s extended one month. Major Charles McClure, paymaster, 13 relieved from duty in this city, and will report in’person to the commanding general depart- oe the Missouri for auty in that depart- men! CoL. J. P.

EIGHT HUNDRED MILLION of six and five per cent outstanding bonds will have to be refund- ed between now and July next. This will nec2s- eitate the passage of some refunding Dill at the approaching session of Congress. The demo- crais genggally favor a three-and-a-half per cent bond. etary Sherman asked last winter for a four per cent. DEFEATED —At the office of the Secretary of the Senate it was stated to-day that a dispatch had been received that both Casey Young, of the Memphbi2, Tennessee, district, and J. D. C. Atkins, of the sth district, had been defeated. ‘The latter fs chairman of the house committee on appropriations, GabRIgEL Bouck, of Wisconsin, is among the defeated members. This takes away from the House the only blu@ coat and brass button member it had. Ir Is Sar that Gen. Mahone, of Virginia, telegraphed to this city last night that he ‘would not enter ints any cancus with the demo- crats, bot would in all public matters vote ac- Conting to the dictates of his independent jadg- ment. Ir MR. FRYE, OF MAINE, should be chosen to the Senate to succeed Senator Hamlin, an event quite probable, the speakershtp contest will b> between Conger of Michigau, and Kasson of lowa. A COLORADO ASPIRANT.—The Denver Inte Ocean intimates that ex-Gov. Routt, of. Col- orado, has some hopes of the Postmaster Gen- eralship under President Garfield. THE Naval REview.—Secretary Thompson to-day designated Wednesday next, the 10th instant, as the date of the naval review at Hampton Roads. The Secretary will go down trom here in the Dispatch with the invited guests. Most of the bureau officers of his de- partment and officials of other departments will be among those who attend with him. Tae President will also go and several members of the Cabinet. TREASURER GILFILLAN returned last night from Connecticut. JupGE LawRence, First Comptroller of the Treasury, got back from Ohio yesterday after neon. THE USEFULNESS OF THE SIGNAL will soon be again increased. Generai Drumm, acting chief signal officer, will in a few days issue an order estabiishing an additional stz- nal on the lakes, which will not only int shipmasters of dangerous winds, but will als enable them to tell trom which direction tivy may be expected. A Hanxpy VoLUME.—One of the most usefit! publications of the year is the “United States Blue Book,” comptted by J. H. Soule, editor 07 the U. S, Record and Gazette.” It has a won- derful amount of information in compact form iniegard to the patronage, working organi? .- tion and business of the federal government. The manual of {information and instruction “for persons desiriag employment at the seat of gov- ernment snd elsewhere” will interest a vast Lumber of the people of the country. ApnocT TENNESSEE.—The legislature of Ten- nessee consists of 103 members. This mornin s’s dispatches were to the effect that the republi- cans claimed 47 members, which would leave the democrats a majority of 9 It is matnly upon this information that the democrats have been counting to-day upon a U. S. Senator from Tennessee. The last legislature contained 30 democrats, 17 republicans and 6 independents. ‘THE Next Hovusk.—There are so many un- certainties yet about close congressional dis- tricts that Secretary McPherson, of the reput- lean congressional committee, has not beea figuring very closely about the republican majority in the next House. He places ft hov- ever, somewhere avout twelve or fifteen. “THE SUPREME RULER OF THE UNIVERSE” Was at the White House to-day, at least he claimed to be so. He is about 49 years old, well dressed and an Irishman His name {ts Joun Geary. He said that he came to take sion and wanted to be shown right to his pr vate apartments. He had not selected his cab- inet yet, but would after awhile. He had the apers to show that he was “Sapreme Ruler. ut would not let anybody open the envelop ‘They were state papers he said which could not. be shown except to his cabinet. He had n9o0b- jection to showing of his credentials ana anced out two honorable discharges from the almy, one from the 4th cavalry and the other from the 6th artillery. Sergeant Dinsmore did not regard these as satisfactory. After much hesitation the Supreme Kuler said that in order to get to hls rooms he would tell what no one but himseit knew. He was the man that had just been elected President of the United States. Gar. fiela’s name had been put out, but he (Geary) Was really the man who had been the candidate, Be got indignant when told that he could not take possession, and sald that everybody knew he was the Supreme Ruler. If he had thous fora moment that there would have been a’ opposition to his coming in he would have biought 50,000 soldiers with him. When asked totake a walk down the street he took the hint, and left inQignantiy, vowing revenge. He did Not look the least like an insane man. ALL THE MEMBERS OF THE CABINET Will ba in the city next Saturday. This will be the tirst time that the president and his advisers have been in Washington at the same time since the President's departure for the West, on the 26th of August last. A special meeting ‘of the Cabi- net will be held next Saturday afternoon. Of the Cabinet, Secretary Sherman, who returned yesterday, Secretary Schurz, Secretary Evarts and Attorney General Devens are now In the city, Postmaster General Maynard ts expected back to-morrow night. Secretary Thompson will return to Washington to-nighf, and Secre- tary Ramsey will get to Washington to. morrow night or Saturday morning. here is a goed deal of routine busines that will requirethe Cabinet's action hext Saturday, but none of spectal Importance.

NOY SEYTLED YET—THE HOUSE PROBABLY REPUB- LICAN BY A SLENDER MAJORITY. ‘The latest returgas show that the next House of Representatives will be uncomfortably close politically, The chances are that it will be re- publican by from two to five majority; but after the smoke clears away it may be found that after all the dents will hold the balance of power. Th@ House is made upof 293 mem- bers, of which 147 isa working majority. A very fair calculation made from the retwurns shows that republicans have been elected as follows: From California, 2; Colorado, 1; Con- necticut, 3; Mlinois, 13; Indiana, 8, Iowa, 9; Kansas, 3; Louisiana. 1; Maine, 3; Maryland, 1; Massachusetis, 10; Michigan, 9; Minnesota. 3; Missonri, 1; Nebraska, 1; New Hampshire, 3: New Jersey, 4; New York, 21; North Carolina, 1; Ohio, 15; Oregon, 1; Pennsylvania, 16; Rhode Island, 2; Tennessee, 2; Virginia, 2: Wisconsin, 5. ‘This makes a total of 140 republicans votes, or seven short of a majority. It sbould be borne in mind, however, that in the fogegoing table the democrats are conceded all their claims. The probability is greater than the improbability that im the state of ‘Tennessee an additional bb egy eran is gained. In Pennsylvania there 13 the decided chance that the republicans have 1s instead of 16 mam- bers down in the foregoing table. The pre- sumption is that North Carolina will. send two republicans instead of 1. In New York the re- publicans Claim 22 members instead.of 21. Ia Miscouri 2 instead of 1. In Kentucky a republl- can 1s claimed. In Illinois 14 republicans are claimed instead of 13, These claims. tf correct, add 8 votes to the assured 140 votes, whict would make the total republican vote 145, or one more than a workibg majority. THE INDEPENDENT VOTE Will be made up of Ladd and Murch, of Matne, the two readjusters probably elected in Vir. ginla, andC. L. Brum of the 13th district of Pennsylvania; Ladd is an original democrat ana Murch a republican; Brum is a republican greenbacker. In West Virginia the republicans claim the defeat of Wilson, democrat. It is clear, at all events, that the party which controls the House will have a very slender ma- jority. Probably not over two either way, with ie chances, undoubtedly, in favor of the repub- cans. ‘THE SENATE IS ALSO Ci0SE, with the chances in favor of the democrats hold- Ing control From the returns thus far received it will stand as foilow Rep, Doudts Dem, ma, Alabama Arkansas Calffornia Massachussetts, Michigan .

The chances, t >. seem to favor a democratic legislature tn Neva- da and New Jersey, as well as tu Tenness°2. If the democrats elect Senators from New Jersey ‘Tennessee, California and Nevada, it will ada + to the 36 votes, which will give the democrats 40 Senators, including Mahone, or one mie than amajority.

At all events, so far as the tower House is con- cerned, the republicans feel confident enough of controlling it to make a scramble for the patros- age. ILispot known whether or not Mr. Mc- Phersou ts a candidate tor the Clerkship, but it is claimed he is not, The name of D. C.

There 1s a8 much trepidation now among the emplo}é3 at the Capitol as there was some weeks prior to the election among the. various department employés. Every visitor to the Capitol is eagerly pressed for news, and the clerks there are all armed with sheets of paper on which they are endeavoring to figure out a sufficient democratic majority in Congress to retain present officials and employés in their places. It was reported at the Capitol this merning upon the basis of a dispatch trom Memphis, that the republicans had carried the solid legislative delegation of fifteen from Shelby county, Tenn., which would give then a fine start towards a majority in the legisia- ture. Another telegram from a friend ot y Young stated that the majority for Young in Harderoan county is large enough to overcom: that of his opponent in Shelby and Fayette, and that he (Young) claimed his election. How the Candidates Take It. WHAT GEN. GARFIELD SAID. A Mentor (Ohio) dispatch says Gen. Garfield exhibited great coolness whilst recelving elec- Uon returns Tuesday night, but when assured Of his election he said to some friends around him: ‘Gentlemen—This result means three ihings—First, that the American people bei in the nationality of the government; second, that they believe in a good, honest. healthy financial policy; third, they are determined no}, W narrow and disgrace the sphere of American eee by indorsing a campaign of personal GEN.

[Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.) NEw YorRK, Nov. 4.—Ex-Senator Dorsey, on behalf of the committee, tells me to-day that the republicans have carried the legislature of every northern state, and says that he includes Nevada in the iist, because in the event of the election of Mr. Fairin place of Sharon to the Senate he will certainly vote with the repubil- cans. He claims the Senate as republican by one majority and Arthur to hold the casting vote. In all the estimates here the House is emphat- ically republican. Gen. Garfield has surely 2i0 voies. Thus it 1s conceded that the executive and legislative branches of the government Will pass completely into republican control after the 4th of March next. It is considered cextain that Gen. Mahone, of Va. will gea- erally vote with the repuv.icans, He will re- fuse To go into the caucus of either party. His campaign fund was raised among republicans here ard In Philadelphia. The latest advices give Hancock the solid south and New Jersey and the three Pacific slope states—Nevada, Cal- {fornia and Oregon. Gen. Hancock has been so sadly overworked during the canvass that his friends are in some alarm at his condition. He is a man of full habit, and has been so closely contined for some time and so hard at work at his office and campaign duties, and taken go little recreation, and been suffering so much from Lg cpa colds and chest and throat troubles, that be must rest now for some time. His most intimate friends are really anxious about him. I would not hint at this but for the fact that it must soon be- come known, LATER. California and Oregon. Reportea Republican—Nevada Democratic— The Chinese titer to be Prose- cuted. [Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.) New YORK, Nov. 4.—Dispatches just receivei this afternoon at the National Republican head- quarters indicate that California and Orezon have after all gone republican. Mr. Dorsey says they lose one Congressman in Calffornta by the election of General Rosecrans, but carry the state by 600 to 1,000 majority. The Oregon dispatch 18 from €x-Senator Mitchell, who de- clares that beyond question the state ts five hundred republican. A dispatch to Mr. Dorsey from Mr. Mackey says the st of Nevada is in doubt and probably demccratic, The democrats have positive ad- vices that Nevada has gone democratie and that Mr. Fair is as good as elected to the Sen- ate. The national republican committee, which: bas not yet spent all of its campaign fund, de cided to-day to prosecute to the end the Moi Chinese letter business, not only to find o. who wrote it but who instigated iL They are angry, on that score, claiming that it lost Ne vada to Garfield. It is claimed by those informed that the reason New Jersey wen democratic was because it was apportioned 6 Mr. Dorsey and kept for him for bis November Work; but he came back from Indiana a sic. and used-up man, and was obliged to rest, and ave no further attention to New Jersey an litle to Delaware. Mr. Dorsey believed Delawa could be carried and made strong exertions a day or two. The consequence wa3, that tre New Jersey and Delaware campaigns were co1- ducted without a definite leader in either case. THE NEW CABINET.

Hancock to write his foolish letter on the tariff, and_ finally . the people who tmagine they can carry an election by the Invention of Chinese letters. The World says Hancock’s defeat was solely because of the selfishness of local politicians in the two cities of New York and Brooklyn, and that a careful analysis of the fMgures and sta- Ustics of the election should be made to serve as data to act upon when, within another month, new general committees shall be selected by the democratic voters. The Times thinks the re- ublican policy should be to build up the ech in the south and see that there isa fair ballot there; toimprove the currency; and fo revise the tax Jaws and the tariff.

The democrats made but a feeble attempt to convince the voter that a change of administration Was necessary. Instead of a discussion cf a measure of public policy that would promote tae general welfare, the demo- cratic managers assailed the personal character of Garfield and expended ali their force from first to last trylag to convince the republican voter that Garfield was a thief aud perjurer. The low- toned character given to the canvass by the selection of Barnum as chairman was a blun- der, and so was the campaign a succession of astonishing blunders. It was a carnival of Darrow-minded politicians, where they played fantastic tricks.
