WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-There is nothing new IN
the political situation Neither Senate nor House
was in session on Saturday. and large number OF
Congressman, living within days journey OF
Washington, took advantage of the opportunity TO
90 home Most of the leading Democratic pollti-
clans went over to New-York on Friday night and
Saturday morning;ia company with Messrs. Hewitt,
Ely Cox and other members of the city delegation,
for the purpose of consulting with Gov. Tllden.
They will return tomorrow morning and IL their
party chief has decided upon any change of policy the
new programme will undoubtedly be developed this
week. The talk in Democratic circles continues 10
be conciliatory as far the Southern members are
concerned, and somewhat aggressive and threaten
enng among the Northern Representatives. III Is
very rare, however, to find man OF any cOise-
quence who makes a definite threat of disturbance
as means of rghting the supposed grievances OF DIS
party. Among these exceptional cases is q leading
New-York politician. who would probably not like
TO SEQ his name in print in connection with remarks
he made on Saturday to a number of his friends.
He said that he should advise all the banking insti
buttons in his city that held Government bonds to
get rid of them as possible and that III case
it was necessary to support Gov Tildens claims by
resort to arms he could himself raise 1OO,O0o
men in the metropolis. 1t is noticeable fact that
the politicians who talk about raising armies and
beginning war belong to the class who took good
care not TO come within reach of bullets during the

beyond perhaps preparing them in committee until
after the count Of the electoral votes the 10th Of
February. If any way should be found of making
Gov. Tilden President, they say the bills will then

BUSINESS LAID ASIDE FOR POLITICS.
THE PRESIDENT YxPREssEs HIS VIEWS ON THE
srrUAT1oN-THE REPUBLICAN PROGRAMME IN
CONGRESS-.
President Grant stated to o reporter on Saturday
that he did not order Gen. Ruger to station troops In
the South Carolina Capitol and did not promise
Wallace to recognize the Democratic House; he gave
a brief account of the call of Mr. Hewitt and MI
Randolph. The President intimated that Hamp-
toms rife clubs make the presence of troops neces
sary in South Carolina he said that State was car
ried by fraud, and that he would trust tho rebels
rather than their Northern allies. The Republican
programme in Congress is now made out. 1t con-
templates making such a disclosure by means OF the
investigations as to prove the moral as well as iegai
right of Gov. Hayes to be President. The proposed
amendment to the Constitution is beginning TO DO
thought of doubtful propriety.
