THREATENINGS OF THE RING, . “If Only the Newspapers Would Be Quiet.” , ALBANY, March 26, 1875. The adjournment over till Monday brings a lull io the caval excitement, and when the Legislature meets again it is likely the way out of the difficulty Suggested by the Senate will be adopted vy the Assembly, Still, it must be confessed that any auch adjustment ts entirely dependent upon the temper in which the friends of Speaker McGuire return to their legislative dutues. If the feelings and views of the Speaker himeelf are any criterion upon which to base an opinion, the probabilities of acompromise are very remote. The necessity of harmony in the democratic party 18, kowever, such and even of a majority in the Lower House may bend to it. It is only upon this need that the hupes of an agreement between the two houses can be based, us the acceptance of the Senate resolution would be a virtual defeat of the McGuire taction, In order to comprehend more fully the position in which all the factions stand toward each other it is necessary to understand clearly the relation of the two houses. The Assembly passed two resolutions yesterday, each of them contemplat- ing an investigation mto the canal manage- of the Legislature, the members on of the House to be appointed by the Speaker, and the other & commission to pe named by the Governor. How this double action came about was a mystery to everybody exceptya few of the surewdest among the repubitcan man- agers, Who took advantage of the snarl in which the House had become entangied, Personal teel- ingran high, and the McGuire men were ex- tremely bitter toward the Governer. Had there been only one proposition before the House, and that the appointment of a commission vy the Goy- ernor, there can be no question but that it would have jailed. Tuere were two, however, both reso- lutions which were passed being under considera- tion at the same time, and out of this came one of the most remarkable scenes ever enacted in a legislative history, GENERALSHIP OF “THE BALD RAGLE.”’ Seizing the opportunity this tempiingly pre- sented to a keen parliamentarian General Husted persuaded the democratic leaders that this the part tional societ:es was held this evering to complete arrangements for a demonstrationin honor of the memory of John Mitchel, Sunday veek.

THE PLYMOUTH CHURCH PARALLEL, Mr. Beecher’s avpointment of a committee of his own cuurch to try Tilton’s charges was cited as exactly parailel with the appointment of a com- mission by Governor ‘Tilden to make the investi- gations suggested in his Message. The ideas entertained by the friends of the Canal Ring were as absurd as the action of the Louse, and it would have been impossible toconvince themeither that they had been out- generalied or that they had overreacted them- selves. Indeed, Many of them are repoxing in concur, lovely and the gouse | blissful ignorance of the fact in their rural homes | to-night, for the House adjourned early, and most of the members had scattered, carpet sack in hand, before the action of the Senate was known. ‘That action biasts all their happy anticipations for | themselves und destroys their hopes of a pretty snubbing to be administerea to Governor ‘Tilden. WHAT THE SENATE DID. At tlie same time It must be admitred that the Senate went as far in tue direction of discourtesy toward the Governor as it dared, under the circum. stances, That body could not be persaaded to take up either of the House resolutions. Neither could it be persuaded to refrain fiom immediate. action, but, at the instance of a de:wocrat, it pro- ceeded to fing another firebrand into the demo- cratic camp. The House resolutions were received and tabled under the rule, when Senator Jacobs moved the passage of lution for a committee of investigation on the | part of the Senate, which was agreed to, and then action was taken upon the resolution previously offered by Mr. Jacobs, providing jor a commission similar to that contemplated by the Assembly. The republican majority, WhO seem to be wise enough in thetr generation, readily assented to both of these propositions, for it was bringing water into their own mijlrace. Anything that will keep the two houses apart suits the republicans just now, and unless the canal men succeed completely this end has been gained, by the adoption of the Jacobs resolution under | the circumstances tt is not strange, perhaps, that tap virulence of the factions should still further contribute to the republican triumph, A sugges- tion of Senator Woodin’s, intended to annoy Gov- ernor Tilden—namely, in an amendment requiring the concurrence of the Senate in the Governor's nominations of the Commissloners—was inserted in the resolution before it was passed. This was a slight matter in itself, but when it is re- membered that it is just what the canal men wanted it will be seen that it is not without a sting, Evidently the republicans are deter- mined that the breach shall be made as wide as possible, and this is plain, not only from General tHusted’s counsels in the Assembly and Senator Woodiu’s course on the Jacobs reso- Intiog, but from the proposed order of business tn the Senate on Monday, Upon the motion of Mr. Woodin the Governor's Message was made the special order for Monday evening, when the Sona- tor is to make an elaborate speech tn support of the Governor's policy.

All this only gives emphasis to the chagrin that ia felt over the disclosures and the intteFiiess that is manifested toward the man by whom they were made, Ordinary pru- dence {8 not observed in the execra- tions that are heaped upon the Governor. It is declared that out of revenge for the opposi- tion of the Canal Ring to his nomination he has thrown @ bombsbeli into the party which must carry havoc everywhere. Amidst all the chatfr and talk and accusation the Governor himself is serene and even reticent. He 1s as cheerful, ap- parently, a8 if he had hit only his political enc- | mies, 1¢18 not his fauit nor is it to his discredit that the republicans have become his champions, even this being due to the violence of the opposi+ tion in his own party. THE SPEAKSRS NERVE AND COURAGE. Speaker McGuire has constituted himseif the leader of the hostile faction, aud whatever may ve suid of the wisdom of his course he cannot be ac- cused Of any lack of nerve or courage, He poidly pursues the line he has marked out for himself, and the Governor could not find a more unrelenting en- eny than the speaker. He throws even his darling wish of becoming Attorney General of the State into the scajes upon this issue, and though it has been a losiog game so fur bis friends vow he shall | sneceed in the end, And they say, too, that Sammy Tilden never, never shall be President.

He quoted from Oontract No, 10, in connection with which grogs frauds are charged, and showed by extracts from the offictal roceedings of the Canal Board that changes had peen ordered in the work aivter it had been com- menced; hence the increased amount of expend ture, He remarked that this age was wiser than tts predecessors in the fact that it now sees where mistakes were made. He alluded to the action of the Senate a few weeks since, in ordering a dupit- cate canal bridge constructed at Ilion, Herkimer county, to furtier illustrate bis point. The Gov- ernor does nos’ denounce men, but the system which permits such action. To hold that all con- tractors are robbers and that sney are banded together isto hold that all the pablic officers having anything to ao with the canals are equally ‘uiliy.
