In reply to tis inquiry, Mr. Fists has written a letter to the com- mittee notifying them that the Admini: tration does not deem it expedient or do- sivable for Congress to make any unfayor able declaration respecting the claim for consequential daraages, and also informing them that President Gkavt's Cabinet are unanimous against the withdrawal of that claim, ‘The couunittee have tion, aud they have got ked for informa. its but the attitude: AL the uptown advertisement oifices 54; We fhirty-second street, junetion of Broadway und Sixth svende, and SOS West Twenty-third street, opposite Brand Opera House, from § A.M. to P.M. —— “on the Wall.

The great change sprang from the fact that a class of Democrats, compara- tively small, but highly influential and thoroughly in earnest, abandoned their old associates and, on the living issues of the time, joined hands with their aucient op- ponents, for the plain reason that those who think alike on political questions Ought to act together.
