CONSULTATION AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
lGENERAL PRESS DIsPATCB.l


WASHINGTON, Feb. ia very large number of
visitors thronged the ante-rOOms at the Executive
Mansion to-day, but the President was so much en-
gagged with Cabinet affairs that very few others
were admitted. During the morning the President
and Secretary BristOw had long consultation,
which was by direction of the President uninter-
rupted by any other callers. Secretary Fish and the
Attorney General also in consultation with the
President this afternoon. Col. Cook of counsel for
Gen. Babcock, had an interview with the President
in the course of which he stated that he had re-
ceived from St. Louis some encouraging kilograms
concerning Gen. Babcock. Col Cook says that other
witnesses for the defense will be summoned from this
city either to-day or tomorrow. Ex-Commissioner
Douglass, Deputy Commissioner Rogers, Cashier
Glfllan and other witnesses in the Babcock case
returned here to-day. These gentlemen have all
been the subject of anxious inquiry from persons
here as to the impressions made upon them during
their attendance at the trial. Public feeling in the
case is becoming constantly more intense, and from
all quarters applications being made for the
latest information from St. Louis. One of the gentle
men inst returned from ST. Louis says that the strain
upon Gen. BabcOck seems TO be telling upon his
physical endurance very much, and cites as an in
stance of that circumstance the reply of the General
to a question from a friend, 10 the effect that being
under fire in the army would be absolute pleasure
