\ Washington correspondent writes
of date March 18th: Pinchback, Antoine,
Lewis, and the rest of the Louisiana col
orcd politicians, start back to New Or
leans Tonight. They have had frequent
conferences with Downing, Wormley,
Douglass, Lang,ton, and other African
magnates, us to the future. The result is
that Pinchbaok has been encouraged to
stand firm, which he announces in most
vigorous terms he will do. He saws
they will find him the hardest
niger in this country to handle,
and mysteriously predicts that as the re-
suit of very lively whirl. which he pro.
poses to give them, he will before long
be in full possession of somebody's hair.
The whole crowd 90 away full of wrath,
whisky and importance, bent on doing
all the miscaiefin their power. As re-
suit, the country may expect to hear in a
very few days of II most formidable oppo-
sition to the carrying ont of the Wheeler
Compromise, at the bottom of which will
be found Pinchback and his crowd .As
they will have TO buck against the Pres
ident in that little game, the chances APP
pear to be greatly against them.

A GIGANTIC GOLD POOL.
Fifteen Million Dollars Combined I"
Push up the Premium.

The history Of Wall street presents no
exact parallel to the gold pool which now
seems to have thorough control OF the
market. There have been hundreds OF
combinations in stocks and gold, but
these have generally beer run on heavy
credit system, while the gold pool Of to-
day. as far as can be ascertained, is en-
gineercd on purely cash basis. The
following is from an interview with an
operator in New York paper of yester-
day:
Reportcr-How much cash gold do
YOU think the pool controls ?
Operator-The amount is estimated
by some at Slj,000,000, but think Sl2,-
100000 is nearer the true figure. But
the puzzle in the whole matter is to
what becomes of the gold certificates
They have disappeared utterly and left
no sign. This shows that the pool is the
strongest on record in cash resources.
Nobody knows Of a single loan ncgotia-
ted by it with bank, and from this |
argue that it is composed Of some Of the
richest men on Wall street. They must
be rich to buy and hold gold in this way.
Reporter-Then you think the markets
is practically in the hands Of this pool.
Opcrator-Most assuredly. They can
run the premium up to twenty or twenty
five ifthey want to. Jay Gould knows
exactly what the Government can do,
and he could make his markrt long be.
fore the Government got ready to act.
Reporter-Suppose he run the pre-
MUM up, and squeezed the shorts in the
loan market, wouldt they bring out the
called bonds and flood the market with
gold?
Operator-Thats just where his
shrewdncss comes in. He don't want to
push things 50 far. If he gets greedy
and squcezes the boys too hard, such
