EASTERN DISPATCHES.

NEW York, May 1S.-The Worlds
Washington special says: During See
ley's examination to-day, Morey who
was present, became excited and told
the committee that if Seeley was al
lowed to proceed with his personal &C.
cusations, he (Morey) would not be &C.
countable for the consequences. Black
barn declared that witness was not to
he intimidated. Seeley declared that he
should decline to testify farther if he
was to be inundated and for a few
moments things looked rather squally,
but quiet was restored at last. The
testimony which excited Morey. was
Seeley's declaration that Morey told him
as proof of his influence with the ad-
ministration that he was on excellent
terms with Grant and that his wife was
great friend of Mrs. Belknap and often
went shopping with her, it was voted to
expunge all allusion to the ladies' fro m
the record.
Caulield, Meade, Cochrane and Joyse,
are appointed q subcommittee of the
House Committee on expenditures in
the Department of Justice this morning,
to visit New York and make inquiry
into the U. s. Marshal's Office of the
Southern District Of New York. The
committee will also investigate the dis
trict courts. The method of conducting
election in New York under Davenport's
regime, will also be looked into.
Blaine had his attention called to
McClures statement. He says the defect
in McClures story is that at the time of
Caldwelrs alleged negotiation between
Julian and himself as speaker in regard
to tho appointment OF the election COM
mittee, he had never seen Caldwell and
did not know there was such a man,
Blaine further expresses the belief that
Julian had never, to this day, had tho
slightest acquaintance with Caldwell.
These facts being 80, there does not
seem to be much left for McClures story
to stand upon and it will fail unless cor
roboratsd by Robinson the alleged prin-
cipal and who is the party who saw
Blaine. The McClures clique of Ar
kansas politicians who support Morton
are exceedingly bitter on Blaine, because
he was Mt willing last winter to join in
the scheme OF overturning the Garland
Government by violence. The whole
gang of carpet-bag politicians in Ar
kansas are determined to injure Blaine
if they can.
The Worlds editorial is exceedingly
bitter against the local politicians of
Cincinnati, whereby the Convention de-
cided in favor of Allen. who was last
year RENTED by defeat to private life.
The Republican leaders will be strongly
tempted by yesterdays events to make a
determined effort at swelling their al
ready large majority at the last October
election in Ohio by nominating Hayes
for President
The Times special admits that the
New Jersey Republican delegation,
though unpledged. has preference for
Blaine. A majority of those from Ten
nessse are for Morton; from Alabama,
Bristow.
The Times Washington correspond
emit thinks that the vote on the impeach-
ment jurisdiction will be had to-day.
The vote will be point gained, as il
more than one-third vote against juris-
diotion Belknap may escape, because of
the two-third rule. though it strikes the
Times as foolish expectation.
A Times editorial on the Ohio Con-
vsntion says: No more important event
has taken place in the Democratic party
since the opening of the canvass for the
Presidential nomination. II DESTROYED
Thurman's chances at st. Louis and it
makes the nomination there of any man
not acceptable to the infationists ex-
trsmely improbable.
The Hsrald's Washington special de.
scribes Derby's note, just received, AZ q
piece Of fencing with our government in
order to defer the issue. 1t does not
yield to Fish's position in the slightest,
and the ground is assumed that the act
Of 1870 has nothing necessarily to do
with the case in dispute. Fish's objec-
tions are regarded a. mere technicality
and his position untenable and absurd.
INDIANApoLIs, Ind, May 1S.eThe

Cooper Of New York. for President, and

journed sine die.
