q. 8. Cox After Brooks Seat In
Congress-.

Captain Buxton, Door-keeper of the
House Of Representatives, has just re-
turned from New York, whittier he went
to accompany the remains OF James
Brooks. He reports that there is very
lively contest among the politicians over
Brooks successor in Congress The
friends OF Sunset Cox are quite conf
dent of their ability to secure the nom-
ination for him, but there is a disposi-
ton among all the candidates opposed
co Cox to unite their forces in case he
should appear too strong for any one of
them to defeat him One of the char
ges already started against him is that
lie organized the Credit Mobilier Com
mittee out OF material hostile to Brooks,
with view to ruin him Cox was call
ed by Speaker Blaine to the chair, and
appointed the committee; but it is not
believed that he had any special designs
npon Brooks At all events, the circu-
lation oil such story in Brooks dis
tliet, and among his constituents, with
whom he was popular, and many OF
whom regard his death as being hasten
ed by The Credit Mobilier business, is
calculated to damage CoX's chances.
