THE CAUCUS FOR THE UNITED STATES SENATOR- SHIP—WALLACE DECLARED TO BE THE CHOICE—HIS ELECTION CERTAIN. HaRRIsBuRG, Jan, 19, 1875. The United States Senatorial contest in the State of Pennsylvania is virtually ended, for the united houses to-morrow cannot overturn the separate issues of the Senate and the House this aiternoon. The regular programme of the day began with the holding of the republican caucus, atan early hour this morning, at which, in the first baliot, Mr. Scott, the present incumbent of the Senatorial chair, received 29 votes, John Allison 27, Benjamin Harris Brewster 20; B. B. Strang 11, 8. E. Dimmick 8, while there were sixteen or seventeen scattering votes for several | candidates. In the second 66 vo'es, Scott being scattered; while the third vote rendered Mr. Allison’s nomination unanimous, At three o’clock the members of the Senate and the House asseubled in their re- spective chambers, and the election of United States Senator immediately began. Intense in- terest prevailed, and the two apartments could not contain one-fourth the throng that wildly clamored for admission. Lobbies, aisles and gai- lerles were crowded. Many ladies were present to witness the proceedings. During the exciting election of the Buckalew campaign, tn which the gentleman secured his honorable post by the'smail majority of one vote, it will be remembered that other Allison polled ballot 27, other | doors a ‘rounder’ stood at the side of every doubtful , | almost wrenching the latter from their hinges, democrat, pelled - each ana with pistol in hand com- to support the caucus nee. That same gang, to a man, protest in the House to-day, and did not egitate to announce that they would deai speedy vengeance to any who ventured to oppose their favorite candidate. Up til the hour of two, there was a small group of men who declared | that they netther conid nor would support Mr. Wailace, and, hence it was anticipated that there would be a stormy time. -strauge to say, how- ever, when the, names of these four men were called, all save one, the Senator from Pike, Mr. Rowland, who was absent, voted tor Mr. Wallace. The vote in the Senate, where the republicans nomi- | was | have a majority, was as fuollows:—Ailison, 29; | Wallace, 18—Aliison’s majority, 11. The vote in the House, where the democrats have a majority, was thus:—Walace, 107; Allison, 88—Wailace' majority, 19. the Senale and combined, the resuit is as follows:—Wallace, 12: Allison, 117—Wallace’s majority on joint ballot, ‘Thus it will be seen that Mr. Wallace won by @ majority mucn larger than that anticipated by his iriends, though it should be said that Mr, Knigot, a republican, trem Bucks, was absent, Whose presence would have reduced the majority to seven. To-morrow both Houses assemble to vote jointly, but the issue then is sure to ve the same as that of jo-day. A great deal of applause was aroused len the pame of Mr. Wishart He was the gentleman who was thrown from a sleigh, and suffered severe {njuries, external and internal, Contrary to general ex- pectation he was on hand, having, despite his wounds, driven fourteen miles tn a bitter coid night to vote for Mr. Wallace. Mr. Buckalew in the election as in the caucus gave up despairingly. at the last moment, and as his small band of con- stituents all deserted him no mentton whatever Was made oi bis pame, He was present, however, during the entire programme. Mr. Wallace’s suc- cess may be regarded as a signal victory of the young democracy over the old, and the rounders and disreputable parties ‘mentioned above did little to affect tie day’s result, tor had every man those persons resolved to intimidate voted against him, Mr. Wallace would have still had a majority of four. The election was altogetner fair. It was the determination of the rising element of pure democracy to throw over- board every wornout and grumbling Bourbon. That won the day, and Mr. Wailace does not-nesitate to acknowledge his obligations to such young men a3 Willam M.

Mr, Wallace is of Scotch-Irish descent, and was born in Huntingdon county, in this State, in the year 1827; consequently he is iorty-eignt years old, At the age of seventeen he began the study o1 law, and has been in his sphere regarded as a briliiant ornament to the Bar. In 1862 he was elected to the State Senate and has held this post 01 honor tor twelve years. In personal appear- ance he 1s prepossessing, and in debate coul and deliberate. His logic ts forcible, and nis judgment sound and penetrating. Altogether, it is believed by his party iriends that he will figure as purely and as conspicuous in the National Senate as he has in the Senate of bis own State. MASSACHUSETTS. TWO BALLOTS IN THE LEGISLATURE YESTER- DAY—NO CHOICE—CONTEST BETWEEN ADAMS AND DAWES—ELECTION OF ADAMS PROBABLE. Boston, Jan. 19, 1875. The first biow in the fight tor the United States Senatorship has been struck. ‘wo bal- lots have oeen taken in each branch of the Legislature, and there is no choice, The Gathering oof the clans at the State House vegan early tn the forenoon, and nothing was thought of or talked about up to half-past two in the afternoon, the hour assigned for taking the first ballot, but the candi- dates and their chances. The friends of Mr. Dawes were a little more hopeful than they were last evening, for then they feared that the demo- crate would nominate Charles Francis Adams, and that enough liberal republicans would join in to elect him, In the first ballot the nomination of Judge Abbott Insured @ prolongation of the fight to-day at least, and this would give them the de- sired opportunity of finding out just how strong their candidate was, and whether, as they an, ticipated, the action of thefioar men in refusing to 20 into a caucus had gained any votes for Mr. Dawes, an anticipation which the balloung seemed to warrant. The Hoar men, however, we grimly pleased, feeling certain that Mr. Daw could never be elected, and the cemocrats were disnosed to be jubilant and Jacetioug, feeling that S House ‘In hight Gathering aod enthusiastic strong oppo- | tering, 10.

SECRET SESSION OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTA- TIVES—ONE BALLOT IN SENATE AND THREE IN HOUSE—JOHNSON’S ELECTION DOUBTFUL. NASHVILLE, Jan. 19, 1875. The action of the House of Representatives going into secret session is strongly denounced. It 1s unprecedented in the history of the State, Report has it that the closed doors is to discuss bribery and corruption in the last Legislature, while others regard it as a disposition to smootn over the sale of the Comptrollership. by noon the halls leading to the House and to the Senate were thronged by an immense number of people who were almost desperate in anxiety to witness the balloting for the United States Senatorship. Finding the doors of the House closed against them they were so outraged that threats were made to boit through the aoors, despite of the sergeantat-arms inside. The once opened, the crowd made a terrible scrambling, breaking out g!ass in doors and The people soon packed the house like sardines in @ box. Never was such @ mad rust made tor seats id stancing room on any similar occa- ston. Electioneering is rife, as the Senate is com- posed of twenty-five and the House of seventy-five members. Ballotting commenced without nomi- nations. When the fourth Johnson man responded tothe call in a clear, distinct voice, a simultaneous outburst of applause _resounded __ from the galleries, Stevens’ man, jumping to his feet, moved that should such a demonstration be again repeated the galleries be cleare Only one ballot was taken in the Senate and threl in the House wuen both houses.adjourued for the day. Balloting will commence in Convention in evrnest at noon to-morrow. Johnson polled 27 votes; Stevens, 17; Bates, 12; Brown, 14, and so on down, Owing to the fact that Jonson fell nine votes below his own calculations, speculations as to the probability of his election are freely luduiged in. When the vote was announced to nim at dinner he turned pale as a sheet and never said a word; but he still bas hopes, though as things now are, fortune being against him as it 18 to- night, he cannot hope to obtain more than forty votes. There are strategic movements on the part o! Johnson's friends to prevent combinations caucusing against him and to throw those close on nis heels into squab- bling among themselves, of which there are al- ready indications, Stevens is stronger than was anticipated. Stevens, brown, Ewing, Bates, loomed up to front to-ntghtin private caucus, Johnson is taken somewhat ata discount, though iriends do not despair of his election. MISSOURL 5r. Louis, Jan. 19, 1874.

FAMILY DISTRIBUTION OF OFFICES: New ORLBANS, Jan, 19, 1875. The Patrons of Husbandry of Louisiana and Mis sissipp! have issued an address to the Order throughout the United States, indorsing the report of the subcommittee of Congress. The address concludes as follows:—“‘Belicve us, this report, made by gentlemen of the North and Con- gressmen of both political parties, telis you the | ‘| truth, and we refer it to you and trust that every | Patron to whom this appeal may come may give it | an attentive reading.” J.N. Vaughn, tnrougn his attorney, Judge Joha A. Campbell, has filed @ petition in the Sixth District Court, claiming $100,000 damages from Generals Sheridan, Emory and De Trobriand and Mr. H. J. Campbell, who, on the 4th of January last, did unlawfully, violently and forcibly make assault Ou the petitioner and thrust him from the House of Representatives, where ne claimed a seat. In- terrogatories of fact are propounded tothe de- fendants. WASHINGTON, Jan, 19, 1875. The first instalment of the evidence taken before the New Orleans Sub-Committee of the Committee of Ways and Means will go to the printer to-mor- row. It will make about 1,500 printed pages, and Promises to be uncommonly readable. It is shown, Jor instance, that during the 14th of September { appeared, and many of them never resumed their ‘dffices, feeling that they had no rightful claim to them. This caused embarrassment in several Parishes at the election, because the proper oM- cers had to be sought to sign the certificates. In some cases they were found quietly ving on their farmé, having abandoned politics, “ALL IN THE FAMILY.” Again, in some parishes all the offices were found | to be held by the members of one family. in one case an old man named Green was County Clerk, his son held another office, his son-in-law another, another son a fourth, and a remote connection of the family a fifth, Iu another cage a man, his two sons, @ son-in-law and two colored men bearing his name, were ail office-holders in the same family. The jokers here are saying tnat the Presi- dent’s care of his Kindred seems to have “struck | 1” in Louisiana. A WHITE LEAGUER IN EBONY. A negro was brought before the committee, and, in unswer to questions, testified that he had “voted the ‘White League ticket’’’ at the last two | elections; that he was a member ofthe White League; that he lived “wid de ole family;” and When asked if he knew who the White League were, he answered promptly, “Of course, my mas- ter’s de White League.” . THE ARMY PREVENTIVE OF LAW AND JUSTICE. There ts no doubt felt here by persons well in- formed in Louisiana matters, republicans as well | as democrats, that ifthe weight of the army were | lifted from the State to-morrow the whole Kellogg | government would peaceably melt away, aud that, without violence, without disturbance, with- out protest even, ita officers would give up their places and abandon every claim to them. It | is, therefore, the army which to-day prevents the | assembiing of the lawiully elected Legislature of Louisiana, which also keeps the Kellogg people in power, These hold on from day to day, reckoning that every day of office is a day’s pay secured— oiten tor all the male members of a family. GRANT'S “INTIZIDATION” OF THE PRESS. The ‘great intimidator,” as Senator Schurz called the President the other day, is still at work. It 1s reported to-night that the work of intimidat- ing the press, pegun at New York, is going on vigorously. The Cincinnati Times and a number of other Western newspapers are deprived of government § advertising by orders from the White House. In nis annual message the President saia, speaking of this subject of intimidation, 1n sume places colored laborers were compelled to vote according to the wishes of thetr employers and there are too many instances in which, when these threats were disregarded, they were remorseiessly exe- | I understand | cuted by those wno made them, tuat the filteenth amenameut to the cunstitution was made to prevent this and a itke state of things.” People here wonder why the fiiteenth amendment, if it really tordios intimidation” and the deprivation of employment for refusal of political snpport, should not protect the press against intimiaation from the White House. CHARITABLE OPINION OF THE PRESIDENT. Tne President told the Sontiern aeiegation which called upon him this morning to urge him to recommend the reconstruction of the levees of | the Mississippi that the recent despatches from General Sheridan about renewed troubles at Shreveport, La., convinced him that there was no gratitude im the Souihern whites, especially after the ald rendered that stricken community in the time of yellow jever and inun- dation, and it was doubtful whether it was worth while io attempt to rehabilitate that part of the country.

HARRISBURG, Pa., Jan. 19, 1875, For the first time im the history of the State the members of both houses witnessed this morning the inauguration of a Lieutenant Governor, an entirely new office created onder the new | constitution. The successful candidate was | Mr, John W.

MEETING OF THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION TO- DAY—THE PRELIMINARY MEETING LAST NIGHT—DESPONDING PROSPECTS—a DEMO- CBATIC VICTORY OERTAIN. New Haven, Jan. 19, 1875. The Connecticut Republican Convention, which Governor and other State oificers, promises to be rather a pecarious affair. It is called for ten o’clock to: morrow forenoon, and, notwithstanding there are over two hundred delegates now as- sembled in the city, they are as ignorant concern- ing the probable candidates and platform as they are of the name and luture policy of the next among the delega‘es of this repuditcan conven- tion to-night. “Tne best man, and one who won’t | decline, and one whom there ts a chance of elect- ing," is the stereotyped reply to any question con- cerning the nominations to be made, The fact seems to be that no one im particular cares to be the martyr to oe vanquished by the candidate whom the democrats will put forward next month, This ts true of Henry B. Harrison, William Fitch, Professor Woolsey, of Yale | Wich, and ex-Mayor Robinson, of Hartiord, all of whom have in turn rejected the proffered honor of @ nomination. Really, the only available man seems to be Mayor Green, of Norwich, and uniess he telegraphs a deciination tn advance it 1s prob- able that lis name will head the ticket. The dele- gates in the city this evening held tueir customary preliminary meeting, but it failed to even attempt anything in the way of designating candidates. Too Louisiana matter was uppermost in the minds of the delegates, and the indications are that it wul be the chief topic of consideration in the Convention to-morrow. The majority—in fact, nearly all of them—were in favor of committing the Convention to the unequivocal support of the but this is not surprising in view of the tact that three-fourths of tne delegates are oftice holders, like Collecior Marsnall, of New London, Postmasters Dunhaw, o1 Bridgeport, and Bent, of Middletown, and Collector Seiden, ot Norwich, all of these and Many more made strong and heavy speeches in support of the administration, the most effect- ive emanating from the New London Collector. All Of the speakers seemed to be inspired with in their defeat they should uot yield principle, but go down with their colors fying. ‘the only speaker who seemed to dissent | from the general backmg up of tne } administration and General Sueridan was Simon E. Baldwin, of New Haven, who took the rattonal ground that the Convention ought to come out and, denounce such acts as those committed in | Louisiana by General De Trobriand. He did not charge the, responsibility upon Grant or Sher- |1dan, and neither would he have the | Convention do this, but what he would insist upon was to have the Convention denounce an act so wrong, unjustifiable and unconstitution 1. Unless this was done he maintained the deteat of the party in Connecticut and ali turough the country was a loregone con- ciusion. The Middletown postmaster, who made | One of those shrewd speeches for which he is so eminently characteristic, claimed that they haa better iet Louisiana matters aione and attend to their own home affairs.
