WASHINGTON, November Gas the
democratic leaders gather here they bring
encouraging reports of the temper of
their constituents. There is no DISPOSE
ton pm the part of the democrats to do
any thing violent, but firm determine
tion TO suffer no gross frauds like those
being attempted in South Carolina,
Florida and Louisiana, to be successfully
accomplished. They will patiently wait
for all the facts before coming to any
Judgment, but if it is clearly established
that the democrats electoral ticket in
those three southern states received a
majority Of the votes actually cast, they
will not suffer returning boards to de-
feat the will of the people. Al the
same time the democratic members Of
the House report that the best element Of
the Republican party in their localities
express their disapprObation Of the use of
the troops in South Carolina and their
returning board. 1t is quite certain that
the democratic majority in the House of
Representatives will stand firm as the
rock of ages on what thay believe to be
their constitutional right, and that they
will not cOncede the claim of the des-
perate republican managers that the pre-
sidcnt of the Senate opens and counts
VIC VlCStoidi NottS. lncy Will Iudlntfun,
moreover, that the returning boards of
Florida, South Carolina and Louisiana
cannot appoint electors and nullify the
will Of the people of those states. They
will not claim that Congress is n return
ing board, and clothed with the authority
to canvass returns, but they will hold and
maintain that fraud vitiates every execu-
tive or legislative act, and if it is clearly
established that the returning board Of
Louisiana has, of its own sweet will dis
frandIised ten thousand voters in that
state, they will not consent to the great
wrong. The republicans, who lay the
fiattering JUNCTION to their souls that the
House of Representatives will be in
undated, and submit, may as well know
now that they will be disappointed. The
democrats came here with the power of
public opinion, as they have gathered it
from their immediate constituents be.
hind them, and they will dare maintain
their rights the claims of the republican
leaders and the implied threats Of Grant
to the contrary notwithstanding. No
man who has heard the views Of the
demo cratic representatives will question
the accuracy Of the above statements.
