berger and ladies. Many visitors called
at the Sherman residence, both before
and after tea, to tender congratulations.
They were nearly all permitted to see
Hayes. Some, however, were pre-
vented by the crowd who thronged
the door of the residence. A stall
wart policeman was stationed near
received the visitors and conducted
them into the presence Of Mr.. Hayes.
At half-past s large delegation OF Illi-
nois Republicans, headed by Senator
Oglesby, called upon the President elect
and were introduced. Among this num-
ber were Representatives. Burchard and
Hurlbut and Senator Logan. In the re-
ception tonight Mrs. Hayes was assisted
by Mrs. Justice Swayne and Mrs. Sena-
tor Sherman, Senator Sherman intro
ducing the callers. 1t was entirely an
informal affair. A son Of Mr.. Hayes
stated that this crowd Of visitors had
scarcely been anticipated, but was
highly gratifying to his father. On
account of the press of visitors, no con-
versations of political significance, so
far as could be ascertained, took place.
Senator Sherman had in side room
some wine and whisky Of very good
quality with which many Of the gentle
men regaled themselves. The Senator
himself drank a little wine only. The
President-elect drank no whisky, but,
like Sherman, partook lightly Of wines.
At 9 special artist Of The London
Illustrated Ne1Cs made a sketch OF this
interesting little extempore reception.
Hayes kept himself very quiet through
out the evening, converslng only in a
general way upon political topics,
and little more particularly
in social way. He plainly shows
the embarrassment of his new po-
sition, and does not trust his tongue as
he would at the Buckeye capital or his
home town. The manner of Mrs. Hayes
Is amiable, but not brilliant. She is
apparently a woman Of good sense and
winning ways. The most noticeable
feature Is her matronly and unostenta-
tious bearing. A number OF ladies who
have met her since her arrival to-day
are much pleased with the social pros
pect at the White House In the new ad-
ministration. Hayes exhibits far greater
affability than Grant as a receiver.
There Is some variety and q small
amount OF blunt and somewhat coarse
wit In his greetings

WASHINGTON, March 7.-As intimated
in my dispatch last night, there Is a
struggle over the appointment to the
War Department, which delays the an
nouncement Of the Cabinet. Gen. john
ston's acceptance would have settled
the whole matter, but now that he is
out Of the question there are several as
pirants, of whom Gen. Devins, Of Mas
sachusetts, has the best chance.
!. The Cabinet will be as follows: Sec
Netary Of State, VIM. M. Evarts; Secre-
tary of the Treasury, John Sherman ;
Secretary of the Interior, Carl Schurz
Secretary of the Navy, Richard Thomp-
son, of Indiana; Postmaster General,

McCrary, Of Iowa. The Secretary of
War will probably be Deyins of Massa-

WASHINGTON, March 4.-There has
been no change in Louisiana affairs
since Saturday. Rumors sre circulated
every few hours Of violence in New Or
leans, and Of attacks made on the State
House; but all the dispatches from that
city represent it as quiet and peaceful,
and these rumors are evidently con-
cocted for the purpose Of aiding the
opponents to President Grants instruc-
tions. Great surprise Is manifested
that the President should have as
sured the Louisiana delegation ex-
plicitly, prior to the decision Of
issue instructions under which Cen
eral Augur would withdraw the
troops from Packard g support, rescind-
ing the orders preserving the status quo,
and that he permitted Augur and others
to put a different construction on the
Instructions which were sent. The
Presidents failure to enforce the action
indicated in the authorized statement
telegraphed to Gov. Nichols excites the
suspicion with some that the whole
matter was trick. Upon inquiry, how
ever, Of the Louisiana represent atives,
they seem to feel assured that the guar
antees given will be adhered to.
Messrs. r. l.. Gibson, E. John Ellis
and VIM, NJ. Levy sent on Saturday the
following message to the President:
We beg leave respectfully to inform
the President that the troops have not
been Withdrawn from the streets and
vicinity of the State-House in New Or
leans, in compliance with his orders.
We suggest to the President that it is
due to himself and the assurances given
to us by him that the instructions, il
misunderstood, be made more explicit,
so that the troops may be withdrawn
from the support Of Packard.

COLUMBIA, March 3.-Haying toward

Gov. Cham berlain upon the declaration

upon the latter and propounded to him
in effect the same questions that l put,
to his gubernatorial rival. Hampton

OF business to attend to. 1t was some
titas before I could engage his atten-
ton, and even then he reluctantly con-
sented to a very brief interview. He
displayed the courtesy Of a gentleman,
the brusqueness OF the soldier, and the
ingenuousness CT @ novice in politics.
This was the conversation that took
place: Y I'll
"How will Mr.. Hayes election be re-
garded by the South ?"
81 think that, though disappointed
in the result, the Southern people will
recognize him promptly, will judge him
fairly by his acts, and will not embar-
rass his administration by factious OPP
position. II he deals justly with US,
will stand on the constitution and will
accord us all of our rights, he will be-
honestly sustained, and will not be en-
hand or by office-seekers on the other"
'Do you expect recognition from him
Of your government"
81 certainly do, for claim that mine
is the only lawfully authorized govern
ment in this State-the only one that
can enforce the law and give projections
AS Mr.. Hayes is pledged to obey the
constitution Of the country I confidently
hope that he will not allow its most
sacred. provisions to be violated in this
State"
"What do you think should be his
policy toward the South?"
''Strict and impartial justice, placing
us on an equality with the other States.
requiring from us full obedience to
the laws, and giving to us the right,
possessed by all other States, to regulates
our affairs without Federal interfer-
ence. This policy will be in accordaneo
with his letter Of acceptance of the
nomination for President, where he
says the great need of the South is In
telligent and honest local government.
in which the rights of all will be re-.
spected by all. III elected President I
will endeavor by all legitimate agencies
to further the establishment Of honest
and intelligent local government in the
Southern States Ii he fulhlls this
solemn pledge he will do much to COM
mend him to our people, and he will
best promote the interests OF the whole
country"
When Gov. Hampton had said this
much, Judge Mackey, who visited Mr..
Hayes at Columbus some months ago.
came in and interrupted the converse
| ton. / heard the distinguished Judge
remark that he was going to Washing
ton to participate in the inauguration
of Hayes, and I believe that he asked
Hampton for another letter.

According to the conscription laws of
Germany every youth upon attaining
his twentieth birthday is required to
enter the army and serve three years.
This does not apply alone to those re-
siding in the mother country, but also
to those Of German birth who have not
been eXpatriated, but whose business
or inclination has called them abroad.
For some time past many young Ger
mans who had not become denational-
lied, and therefore were liable to con-
scription, have, upon attaining the re-
quired age, crossed the ocean and pre-
sented themselves before their respec-
tive district "befehlshaber" for enlist
ment in the .'landwehr," but in many
instances only to find themselves re-
jected on account of physical disability.
Thus they had the expenses Of q
useless and costly trip thrown
upon them in their desire to
obviate this, the German government
some time since instructed their repre-
sentative in this country to appoint q
medical examiner to pass upon the
physical condition of those who should
present present themselves for military
duty. TO this position DR.. Tellkoppf
has been appointed.
Yesterday, before the German Con-
sui, Mr.. Fred. Hinckel, appeared seven
young men ready to serve their time.
They were examined by the doctor in
the presence Of the Consul, as the law
directs, and five were passed. They
will take the next German steamer for
their native land.

WASHINGTON, March 7.-The Ca binet
slate i sent you this morning was right,
except that Devins and McCrary chang
cd places; the latter being nominated
for the War Department and the former
for Attorney General, instead :of Uice
rcTsa, as stated in my early dispatch.
The vote on the reference of Kellogg's
credentials was about fair test Of the
strength Of Hayes Southern policy in
the Senate, and, In fact, tolerably fair
test of his general strength. He will
be supported by all the Democrats and
bYfrom six to eight Republicans, and
opposed by the rest Of the Radicals,
which will give his administra-
tion q majority of from eight to
twelve in open Senate. But his
fate isentirely in the hands OF the Dem
ocrats. IL they stand aside, Blaine and
Morton would devour Hayes in twenty
four hours. The only possible danger
is that Blaine and Morton may be able
to whip their whole caucus strength
Into the anti Hayes traces, in which
event they would beat and overthrow
him and force him into compliance with
their hellish designs This, however, is
very improbable.
The vote on Blaine's resolution to
admit Kellogg was 25 yeas, 35 nays; the
vote to refer the credentials to the Com
mittee, after the defeat OF the resolu-
Gon to admit, was AZ to 81. The 25 to 35
vote was the test.
The caucusses to.arrange the commit
tees tomorrow will settle the whole
question. 1t is not improbable that the
Hayes Republicans may secede from
the Radical caucus and join with the
Democrats in reeonstructing the Senate
4 committees on new basis. IL this be
7 done, the anti-Hayes Radicals will be
Instantly thrown into permanent and
helpless minority. The Democrats are
at all events, thoroughly masters Of the
situation. and can either sustain Hayes
or let him fall into the clutches ol
Blaine and Morton, as they see fit.
Great excitement prevails here, and
rupture between Hayes and the Radical
wing of his party is complete. o

Especial to N. o. Democrat

WASHINGTON, March IA conference
was held to-day between Hayes and one
of the Louisiana Congressman, at which
it is said Hayes talked at some length
On his proposed Southern policy, and
declared emphatically that under no
circumstances would he ever be induced
to lend troops to foist Packard or any
other person into Office over an unwil-
lingpeople, and that he should consider
no person worthy Of holding the office
of Governor who could not maintain
himself In 1t and carry out and enforce
the laws thoroughly.
There is not the least foundation for
the rumors that the Republicans lay
claim to two or even one Senator, as a
/. Dasis OF compromise or agreement.
No such claim has ever been made by
any class OF Republicans-the ultra
Republicans refusing to enter into any
sort Of arrangement at all, and the con-
servative Republicans determined to let
the case of Louisiana rest on its own
merits, and not make it a mere bargain
The ultra Radicals made fierce fight
to-day on the seating Of Kellogg, be-
lieving that If this could be done they
would pave the way to the recognition
of Packard, and indeed force Hayes to
recognize the latter. Their chief argu.
znent was that Kellogg having no con-
testant claiming his seat, should be
seated on a prina facie case. They
even attempted to draw parallel be.
tween Lamar and Kellogg, and insisted
that both should be seated, subject to
contest.
Blaine and Morton led the Radical
forces and showed fierce and bitter
determination to continue their fight
against the South and Hayes Southern
policy.
