'BESET BY OFFICE SEEKERS Orowds of Anxious Patriots Pester the Demo- cratic Benators.

C, March 16.—The change that has come over the senate was apparent to most inexperienced observers today. As soon as the body had adjourned after its brief session, the armyof office seekers who have been thronging the corri dors for days, had an opportunity to sce their sonators, and they all found their way 1o the democratic side of the chamber, with the result that nearly every senator w soon surrounded by a group of wistful-eye men, and then was soon obliged, in self-de fense, to flee to the retiring committee rooms. On the other side of the nber, the republican senators sat at their case and were unmolested vers of the scena. Some jokinzly complained that they lost popularity and the leaders, who rarely havea moment to themselves, had leisure today to sit quietly and commiscrate with their hard colleagues, on the democratic side. Several of the republican senators talked earnestly with Senator Stewart, possibly inexplanation of the party necessity which had impelled them to drop him from the minority membership on the appropriations committee. If he feels any soreness over this tter Senator Stewart manages to conceal it very effectually. He vrofesses to be entirely satisfied with his | being liverty to voto with r party or against any measures which do not comiend themselyes to his judgment irrespective of party considerations, WasniNaroxn, beset CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, The Original Doe the World's Fair— Wiashington Notes.
