Tho leaders OF the majority Of the conservative
caucus announce their determination to stand
nrm and push the compromise to completion TO-
morrow. The process is understood to be q COM
pliance with the individual pledge condition.
The non.compromisers claim that 1t cannot

Is concerned, Messrs. Bayley and Blarer are men,

last evening" to reconsider his vote in favor of the
compromise.
THE ACTION OF CONGRESS

threat but carries no influence In favor OF the
compromise. The Ptcay,tase. itself strong advo-
cate OF the adjustment, says:-"Show US that it''

stated, In search OF a drunken man, who, after
Offering them some insult, sought refuge therein.
The police we're summoned, but were overawed
by the large number OF soders--some thirty or
forty-and the riotous proceedings were not ar
rested until federal officers intervened.
