THE PRESIDENT'S BACKBONE. WasurNorox, May 5—4 p. m.—Tbe ¢ xecutive communication recelved by the senate to-day contained the with. drawal of the nomination of Wood- ford and Cenny rs U. S. district attor- neys fn New York stuce, Bayne and McDonald is United States marshall for New York,and Tyler ex coll. ator at Buffalo. This slmply means that if any New York nominaticas are to go over none of the above will be confirmed. THE CAINESE TREATY ADOPTED. Th o senate at 2:10 o'clock this sf- moon reached a vote on tho Chin- 0 immigration treaty and adopted 1t, there belng only four dissenting votes, one of them beirg Senator Hoar. THE SCARLET LETTER. Notwithstanding the emphatic de- nlal made by Senator Dawes Tuesdsy night, the letter telegraphed from here Mondsy night in which the pres- ident exprosses his views very freei regarding the efforts of the republican senatora to elect as secretary of the senate a man whois duily assailfn; consideraticn Tae senate, in execntive setsion, confirmed nominations &s follows, Wm. Walter Phelps, of New Jersey, minister to Austris; Cortez Fessen- den, of Rome, Mich., States surveyor general of Dakota; Richard Montgomery, to ho receiver | of public moneys at Bloomington, Mich.; Selden M. Bronson, to be postmaster at Menasha, Winnebago uoty, Wis. The speeches ‘made In executive seasion this afterncon were none of them lovg. Tae principal speakers wore Senators Hawley, Bursside and Miller, and i was due in a grest measare to the_forcible manner in which these genilemen put the matter that zhgppmition to the Chinese im- wigrati¥h treaty was so slight. Not even four, ss first stated, voted sgainst it, the only opposing votes be- 15y those of Senators Diwes and Hoar, both of Massachusetts. Debate on the Chinese commercial treaty didfnot consume more than an hour. The objections of the few New Eogland secatora were over- whelmed by arguments in favor of the treaty, and it was adopted with only a half dozon dissenting voic: The balance of the session was coi sumed in confirmations cf about one hundred nominations, sccording to the list. A message from the president with- drawing nominations, creatad quite a sensation, but being accompanled by no request, no public comment was made, and the Robertson nomination was not alluded to. At 4:30 the sanate came out of ex- ecutive session and adjourned till 12 to-morrow, o FIRMATIONS. The confirmations by the senate to- day wero as_follows: Nathan W. Sgaulding, United States ex treasurer at San Francisco; Jowett, Unifed States ass Louis; Bradly L. Watsou, naval officer of customs at San Francisco; John D. ferriam, eollector for the district of nt E. C Y | Oregon; J. L. Gaston, surveyor of castoms for the port of Chattanoogs, Tenn.; John R. Lenord, surveyor st both himself and the admiaistestios | Indianapolis, Ind.; Collectors of in- is genuine, excepting the latter part which refers to Robertson's nomina- tion. This does not appear in the letter. The president does not hesi- tate to acknowledgo the letter and says he will stand by it to the end. He ls not to be frightened from his urpose to do what he considers to be for the best interests of the country. As to ROBERTSON'S NOMINATION, while no reference is made to it in thi lotter to Senator Dawes, the presid-nt did on several occaslors exprees his mind very freely to the caucas com- mittee on the subject of that and other nominations and the preroga- tive of the executive offie. The president holds that he has done his duty to the best of his abillty in se- lecting good and_eflicient men to fill certaln offices. He sent their names to the senate for the action of that body. It remaine now for the senato 1o do its best In a straightforward way, without attempting to coerce the executive into dolog that which neltber hie judgmentnor hisconscience can approve, viz: withdraw certaln nominations simply because they are personally objectionable to a few scn- ators. The president has the best in- tererts of is party at heart, and will do all he can in an honorable way to promote that Interest, but he can not and will not submit to belng butlied. TWINKLING STARS. For some deys past, certaln partics connected with the slleged irregulat:- ties in the star mail service, have been hinting at a dsmagiog letter wrltten by the president to J. A. Hubbell, chalrman of the republican congres- sionalcommittee. They had threatened publication ot the letter, provided the president did not let up on the inves- tigation. The letter in question wes exhibited In Washington last week to a few newspaper gentlemen, but none of them care to publish it. Yester- day morning the letter wes pablished in the telegraph columns in The Post, dated as coming from Chicago. The letter ts genuine, and was written by the president. He acknowledges s [ ternal revenus: Chancellor Hatson, district of Colorado; Marquis Boges, 11th district of Ohio; Wm. Umbden- stock, 4th district of Texas, and » Tong list of others inclading post- masters, Wasurserox, May 6—1 a. m.— Nelther the judlciary _committeo nor that on commercs had a sesslon yesterday morning. The president has decided not to o | &ive out for publication the letter to Senator Dawes, He prefers to let the matter reat as it CRIMES AND Cl{!h}lfiks.

CitcsGo, May 6—1a. m.—Captain McKee left the city last evening in a small boat 10 go to his homs in the ctib, two miles out in_the lake. Nothing bad been heard of him up to it to be his letter and says ttat he | midnight, and it is feared that he has stands by it as he does by Dawes’ lot- ter. The facts as to how the letter came to be written are about as fol- lows: It eeeme that in the spring campiign of s being auxious to show his zeal in the republican cause and to c.utribate us much material support as possible, bethought himself to call on the mail contractors to contribute to the campaign. In this suggestion he was alded by Hubbell, who thought it would be “‘the thing.” Gen. Brady, who seemed always to be looking ahead, possibly for breakers, sug- gested that a request from Gen. Gac- field would most probabl§ induce the contractors to come down hand- somely. Acting in this sugges- tion Habbell went to to see General Garfield and tried to persuade him to write such a request, bat this the General refused to do. Sabsequently Hubbell wrotean urgent appeal to General Garfield and elicted the brief letter published this morning, sod which seems to have been relied upon by the star route par- ties as the petard for hoisting the ad- ministration into an unenviable no- torlety. “There is nothing in_(he letter that any presidential candidate might not write at the solicitation of one of the managers of his political party, yet reference was made to this letter in the republican caucus as one that the president could not meet; that its damaging disclosure would ruin him, &., and yet the president DARES TO MEET IT, and own he wrote it. If any one thinks that the president can be de- terred by threats or aven persusded to forego & thorough investigation of the star route service, he is mistaker. Thepresident has made uphismind to push his investiga'ion to the end %o punish, 1f possible, to the fall ex tent of the law all who are foond guilty of auy criminal act.

How M. Ambre Put Too Much Realism in His Part. And Then Said That He Would Do It in Spite of the Devil, New York, May 6=1 a.. m.—The elopement of Mme Ambre still affords the most interesting gossip. Versions of bun sides of thissingular caze have been already published, but a reporter was fortunate enongh to obtain an in- terview with Madam Tournle, the wife of the traant Lothario. Madam Tourne is of medium helght, stout and with regular features that are ‘made additionally attractivo by a pair of large blue eyes, which the lady well knows how to use. She showed sigos of the excitement she had endured the past few daga and her nervousness still indicated that she was far from ed with hor present con- m Tournle sa’d in substance as follows: “I have been marrled to M. Tonraia only for about three yeats. Previous to this he was my very dear friend, whom I liked very much. e has alwdys shown me the greatest at- tention until he met thls woman, Ambre, who, though considerably older than he fs, yet continued to throw a gleam over him aud won his affections from me. I first noticed this. when we were playing in New Orleans. Heseemed to make love in the most earnest manner on the scage and I mentioned it to him, but he shrugged his shoulders and said that it wes necesssty to put some realism into'the part. This was not the only thing to attract my attention. Ambre himself 1sed to ehow him various lit- tle attentions which conviced me that all was not smooth. “When we wero traveling my hus- band was continually with M. de Beauplan and his wife, and when De Beauplan would leave the carriage my husband always maneged to get a lit- tle closer to Ambre. I noticed this, and told my husband I would stand it no longer; whereupon he told me he would do as he pleased in spite of (ke devil himsell. When we reached New York the affair became so bad that the members of the company usad to remark it, and I had to en- dure all* thelr sneers and jokes. did not speak to him about 1t sgain, but let the matter drifc as it would till night before last, when the cli- max_came. “I am golng to remain in New York another week and then I shall sail for France and go 10 my hus- band's father who lives near Trouville. The company hated Ambre because sho was so domineering and because soe influenced Mr. Beauplan in his manner of acting with us, If it had not been for her everything would have safled along smoothly snd we would have been playiug to full houses in New York, bat she spoiled it all. She ls a porfect fiend and likes trouble, purely for trouble's sake. “The worst feature of the whole matier is that there are about eight members of tho tronpe who ar abso- lutely destitute. Some had to sleep in Madison street square because they did not have money enough to pay for their iodglng. Oh, yes, Ambre i3 M. De Beauplan's wife and bis father, Count Beauplan, disowoed him be- cause ho married her. She has ruin- ed other men in the same way and she is in a falr way to destroy all De- Beauplan's hopes of reconciliation with his father. Ambre ls very rich and Beauplan 1s also wealthy, but his fortune Is invested in realestate sbout Pacis, and its dispositien would be very difficult unless it be attended in perzon. Idow’t expect M. De B. to pay the salaties when the company reaches France, if it ever does. I thiuk he will leave France and rusti- cate for a while whero his lovely wife can’t bs running away with other people’s husbands, The fair Mme. Ambre writes the following letter in her own behalf to tho editor of The Courier des Etats Unls, of which the following is & translation: - New York, May 4. Monsier Enrror:—I am exceed- ingly astonished to read in the news- papers storles of my flight with Mon- sicr Touralo, It is absolutely false, and 1 formally brand it ay a lle. I have been all the time in New York. I left the hotel where I had been s'aying, It is troe, and if T do not give my new address it is in order avoid the presenco the unhappy and broken-hearted veople whom T can no longer relieve. Tam conscious of having dove my duty to the utmost of my power, having lost in Mr. DeBeauplan's un- dertaking and without being in the slightest degree responsible the sum of $75,000, besides my salary for slx months, In thisloes I do not include that of my jewels, which are pledged for 4,000 As to M. Tournie, whether he left the city alone or not doesnot concern me. One thing I know that concerns me, is that Mme Tournie might have taken the trouble 10 be better informed before starting a scandalous story which might cost her dear. No; M. Do Beauplan and my- self entertain for her husband the highest regard and esteem, which is due oim. Hoping, Monsleur, that you will extend a favorable reception to this letter, I beg yon to receive the aesurance of my distinguished consid. eration. (Signed) EsuLe AvBeE.

Viexxa, May 5—4 p. m.—Beneath the pomp attending preparations for fetes, on the entry of Princess Stepha- nle into Vienua Monday next and the marrisge the following dsy there is an under-current of terror bssed on the belief of & 1 recolationsry movement of bilists in Russis, Austria, Germany ond Italy. The nibilists are perfectly organized and fn complete com. municatien, led by intellects close to every throne in Earope, and able to forecast and thwart overy government movement and organizi- tion.! Protected by an impene mystery, it i felt all over Europe some simulanteous general movement is being prepared by the nihilits for s terrible blow at royalty, and the belief is general that the next few weeks will witness tragedies in many countries that will shock the world. The general expectation Is that the Czar will be assassinated and his death a_signal for a series of trage- dies. Nihilist agents are on the fly all over Earope. LOYALTO EACH OTHER. St Perevssurc, May 5—4 p. m.— Ttis found impossibls for the govern- ment to get into the Nibilist's circle, the nihilists being too loyal to ene an- other, too well informed and too in- intelligently organized. For instance, the government has lowned that one of the rules of the nihilists is that every mémber shall return tohis lodg- ings every twelve hours, when one of his companions pays him s visit to see if all Is right. When the visit of the inspector 1s made, if the lodger is absent he {s concluded to have been arrested, and the inspector makes away with overything of a compro- mising nature. The same rule for- blds any nihillst arrested to tell bis name or address till twenty-four bours pase The discovery of this rule was made by the polics in the case of Isaieff. No torments could draw from him his name or address until the day after his arrest when he gave both. The po- lice went to his house snd found nothing but a plle of ashes before Isleffs fire placs. The discovery tends to Increase the government’s dismsy at the completoness of the danger surrounding it, ss in order to even find out who the nihilist inspec- tors are, would have to ascertaln and h':entily every man found making & visit.

The trial of Herr Most, editor of The London Freheit, and indicted for publishing articles tendiog_to excite revolution, is postponed indofinitely.
