Up to Satur day night, democrats gencrally, including those who have the most at stilke, conced that the republicans will have the organiza tion, but the report of the discovery of errors in the returns from one of the fornia districts, which gives the scat U democrat instead of & republican, led ey man__interested in holding 'his place in the house, to begin figurin over again, and this was follow by claims, in'several quarters, of demoe ¢ in the lower brauch of the Fifty ngress; but the claims are no_better founded than' those upon which General Clark bases his estimate, and they contem plate the seating of Kaynor from the Fourth Marylund district, as well as the demoerat from the Sceond North Caroling, together with four democrats from Wess Virginia and i (dom.) from Connecticut.

It 18 not true, as published, that John Sh man has received and declined an invitation from the president-clect to visit Indianapolis, My, Sherman, when questioned to-night, wonld not deny that he had written to and received letters from General Harrison since the election, but stated that if ne hud been asked 1o go 1 Indianapolis he should cortainly 40 80, because an invitation from the president-eleet to any republican in the country, under the present circum stunces, would be like an iuvitation from the queen of England, equivalent to o command. With rcference to the reports that he was slated for the cabinet, Mr. Shermaz said ho knew nothing more than had appeared in the newspapers, and the plans of Genoral Harri son did not concern him any more than other republicans. He did not expect to be invited into the cabinet, and was perfectly sutisticd with the official position he now holds, It is asignificant fact that ove of the largest clubs that will appear in the inaugural pro- cossion of G ) Harrison is the Samuel J Randull - Democratic Association club of Philadclphia, who huve engaged rooms for #30 people at the Riges bouse for March 4 next. 1t is not often that a_demiocratic elub from o distunce comes to Washington to at tend the nauguration of a republican presi dent, Pensy 8.
