Pleasnntries Between mocrats.

The Alexandria Caucasian contains O
little over column of "oard" from 3Ir Ed
win G. Hunter, of Pneville, which seems
to have been called for by something said
by Mr.. L. l.. Bossat, the editor Of the
Democrat lie does not call the editor a
letter explained provokes remarks which
Mr. Hunter probably considers equivalent
The cruel sarcasm indulged in is made ap.
parent by q protuse use of italics, where
MIR. Eiossa. is held as patriot and re-
quested to explain what became Of $l4l9 OF
the school fund, repaid by his securities; of
$500 Of parish taxes and $3.50 ID parish
scrip, and is threatened with Mr.. Philip
Winifree if ne doesn't do it. With that
alternative before him Mr.. Biossat's ex-
planation will be given in q hurry Mr.
Hunter himself dcvotes moro attention to
asking these questions than telling what
Mr.. Biossat wants explained, and SO the
public who read only the Caucasian are left
in the dark on that point.
1t is very sad to see these little differences
in the Democratic party, although if Mr..
biossat is in it Mr.. Hunter says he wants to
get out. But while they are divided, there
is less danger to the rest of the Fineville
If they should cease to abuse
each other and combine against some I'M
fortunate Republican, it would probably be
the death of him.

| puolicarL1
There have been several erroneous classi-
ficatons of the Few Senate, founded upon
| imperfect knowledge of the present political
status of certain new Senators and a failure
to REMEMBER tina: the Liberal" Senators
have all been retired letter has been re-
ceived here from Angus Cameron, the new
Senator from Wisconsin, in which he Gays:
Il am and always have been a Republican,
and have no desire now to change my
principles. In accepting the nomination l
did not sacrifice my political standing in
the least. Hon. II. J. Tildeu, of San Fran
cisco, chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee of California, informs
your correspondent that Newton Booth, the
new California Senator has always been a
Republican. but that he now a.fi!iatss with
the Independents in that State. Tho State
committee of that organization met few
days since, Governor Booth attending, in
which they resolved to nominate g full
ticket next fall Senator Booth, then, may
be considered as entirely Independent of
either party in the Senate. The political
status of all the other Senators is well
known.
OF the seventy three members OF the Eew
Senate, forty four are straight Republicans,
twenty-seven regular Democrats. while
Senator Johnson, of Tennessee, may be re-
garded as an independent Democrat, and
Senator Booth, an Independent Rerub.
lican-though in matters relating to the
integrity OF the Union. they will both Ger
tainly vote with the straight Republicans.
But without counting them, the Repub
hcans have the far working majority Of
seventeen, which the admission of another |
Republican from Louisiana will bring up to |
eighteen.
The Liberal element has been entirely |
eliminated by the defeat of Senators Fen !
ton, Upton, Sprague and Schurz, and the |
return of Senator Hamilton, of Texas, to |
the regular Republican ranks. The exact |
position to be taken by Andrew johnson is
subject OF some speculation. He repre- |
cents the Union element Of Tennessee,
while his colleague Mr. Cooper, was elected |
as Democrat in opposition to him. Sen |
ator johnson, of course, controls the Sena-
torial patronage of his State, and having
no great amount of goodwill toward the
Democracy, is not likely to help the party
overmuch. Taken altogether, the new
Senate may be pronounced qnite satisfac.
tory. To be sure. the Republican majority
is somewhat smaller than the nominal
majority in the old Senate; but the party
Ii.iaa Il i.,bt
and impracticable Liberal element is out
of tho way. 80 that measures to promote
tho best interests of the whole country may
be carried through more easily than here.
