8 " NEWS FROM WASHINGTON, OUR SPECIAL DESPATCHES. THs SPRAKERSHIP—THE BANKS MEN IN 4 TIGHT PLACE—A SHARP DAY'S WORK EXPROTED. Wasurncrom, Dee, 16, 1865. Ata caucus of Backs’ friends last night, it was pro- posed to pledge themrelves to stand by bim underapy and all circumstances. Only sixty of these were willing tu be brought under such » pledge. The others claimed the privilege of changing their votes whenever policy or the public fnterest demanded it. Mr. McMulton’s proposi- tion will be made to-morrow. The plurality resolution will also be submitted, A sharp debate is anticipated. E TACTIOS OF THE REPUBLICANS—THE CONTEST FOR TUS SENATS PRINTING—THE ORAMPTON AFFAIR. Wasaincton, Dec, 16, 1855. The programme for to-morrow of the Banks men is to stand by him and vote down all propositions, come from what quarter they may. I understand there will bea number of propositions made, and some time consumed in speechifying. ‘The Senate will go into an election for printer on Tues- day. Desperate efforts are being made by the frionds of the Union to oust Beverly Tucker. that unless the democratic Senators endorse the Union his chances for the succession are floored. Mr. Marcy has been anxiously engaged for the last three days in preparing important despatches for our Minister at London, with refererce to the Crampton diffi- D. NEW DEVELOPEMENTS——A PRESIDENTIAL PLAN POR oulty. ORGANIZING THE HOUSE. ‘Wasmneron, Deo. 16, 1866. Fresh diffioulties are threatening, but in another quar- ter than the House of Representatives. The President, with much earnes(noss, assured a member of Congress, last evening, that he should have two messages to trans- mit to Congress upon its organizatin. His original mes- 4age, prepared for the opening of the seaston, would bear no farther alteration without tho risk of its not being” ready when called for, and the ixtelligence brought by the Baltic would render necessary a supplemen- tary document. Although the news thea received General Plecce says does not bear upon ita face, as published the newspapers, any information of great nations! mo" ment to the United States, yes 1 am permitted to confirm the facts set forth in my last despatch, and to repeat the over anxiety of the President for an immediate organiza. tiom of Corgress. Nearly the whole of Saturday morn. ing was consumed in Cabinet council, debating the pro- priety of further alteration of the message, which has resulted as above mentioned. Should the House not organize in a few days, it is not improbable that the actual nece‘sity of the country for 80 deing wi!l be made known to it, and verbal tacts communicated which may cause « harmonizing of existing diffloulties.
