.o,ie, M that coolness exists between himself
md the President, said that his relations
~ah tbc President were as amicable to-day
.s on the day he entered the Cabinet, and
,b,t there had not been word Of difference

feelings towards him. .,g-ys.
',r There is considerable excitement among
n,r.l r, officers over an order issued by the
Secretary of the Navy, yesterday, directing
,hp United States steamer Dispatch to pro-
essd to sea tomorrow with sealed orders.
This This steamer is the fastest in the Navy,
sn1 was ordered from Baltimore, . few
davs ago, for repairs, and it is not believed
that she would be sent to sea now, under
sealed orders, unless in some unexpected
emergency, The naval officers are of the
opinion that her destination has some con-
pection with Cuban matters. ....,.,
Piuchbcck is making strong effort TO
have his case disposed Of at once, and al
though he Is not likely to succeed this week
there is probability that the matter will
come to a crisis at no very distant period.
His case is not by any means 50 hopeless as
most people suppose, and If the Senators
who are now absent could bs got together
there is a good prospect that Pinch
would be seated.

ougbly disgusted with the matter, and
d sorry that be ever made the attempt to
obtain his seat Should Morton succeed In
getting the members of the Senate upon
whom he can rely present, the Democrats
will 6nght against vote with all the weap-
ons thatthe rules place in their power. BY
loag winded speeches they will be
able to stave off vote for some time and
possible tire out the Republicans.
Although Senator Alcorn Of Mississippi,
denied the statements published in the Chi
eago Times; he did not refer to one of the
statements contained in the article, that he
was again effeliating with General Ames.
1t has been generally believed here that
Alccrn was intending again to get back into
politics in his State, out Of which he has
recently dropped, aud that he would like to
take the lead of the Republican party again,
and reorganize its broken ranks. Alcorn
isknown to be influential among q certain

with Ames, the old Radical party which
has ruled so disastrously there, has hopes
Of success next fall. 1t is said that the plar
