FROM WASHINGTON.

Washington, u. The National republican
executive committee met here to- day. There
was very large attendance, including Sec
rotary Robson and Gen. Owen, assistant
secretary Of the Interior. The proceedings
were very interesting. Several letters from
prominent re, nblicans in different States
were read, those from Virginia aud North
Carolina taking very favorable view of the
prospects Of the party in those States in the
coming August elections. Senator Wilson in
a brief speech rendered his resignation as
Vice President of the committee. which he
said was not a question of choice, but OF
consistency. The duty panied him because
of his long association with the committee.
Several gentlemen followed in brief remarks
and it was suggested that the nomination OF
the successor 10 Mr.. Wilson be left with that
gentleman. Senator Harlan, assistant secre
tary Cowan. Gov. Cooke, Judge Edmunds
and Frederick Douglass were elected as
resident committee. 1t is thought that Col.
Alsah Croker of Fitchburg, Mass, will sue
coed Mr.. Wilson.
Senator Wilson leaves for his home TO-
morrow night. Previous TO doing so he will
write his letter accepting the nomination OF
the Philadelphia convention for the Vice
Pre- -idency
Members OF the administration now here
unite in the firm belief that the government
viii not consent to postponement OF the
Geneva arbitration. The conduct of the
British minister strengthens the rumor which
prev allied in official quarters several months
ago, that they had satisfied themselves that
the tribunal was inclined to give damages to
the United States, and this they had ascer-
tanned through their secret agents.
Our government is in daily expectation Of
receiving information of the release of DR..
Howard. 1t has made no imperative de-
mand as has been stated to that end, but
long ago instructed our representatives at
Madrid to neglect no occasion to urge in
firm but in respectful language his release
