commission, that tribunal should take into coDdd.
GRAFTON some part of the evidence at least upon
which they based their case. These men announced
tonight their determination at least TO put upon
record protest showing the bad faith OF the Re-
publican members of the Commission in not living
up to this agreement.
| Rumors are i'm circulation this evening of Demo-
cratic gatherings and conferences in different parts
of the city, but cannot be learned that any course
of action has been determined upon, except perhaps
that shall be insisted upon Tomorrow. Some
of the Democrats openly in favor of resortng to
any means by which they can flibuster and prevent
the announcement of the result of the Presidential
election before the 4th of March. One scheme pro-
posed is TO pass bill through the House providing
that Hamilton Fish shall be regent ad interim. and
send the matter to the Senate and then to resort to
every parliamentary device for the purpose Of i'm
pedng the further count Of the electoral votes.
The excitement in the Democratic party tonight
is not however great as il would be II Gov. 1ien
was universal favorite among his political friends.
His nomination at st. Louis was obtained against
the Judgment of large portion Of the party. These
men now demand an entire reorganization of tho
Democratic party, and attribute their defeat entirely
to the mismanagement Of Gov. Tiden and his imme-
date friends. One of them remarked to-day that
the events of the last six weeks has caused him TO
lose almost all interest in the issues of the con-
test and that he cared very little whether Gov.
Tilden or Gov. Hayes wins. The number Of men in
the Democratic ranks who entertain this and sim
liar opinions rs very great. Some OF the Democrats
find escapevalve for their disappointment in de-
nouncing the Oregon business. Western men who
took TO Mr.. Tilden kindly are bitter in their
expressions concerning his conduct in this affair.
prominent Indiana representative said in one OF tho
hotels, The Oregon scheme is infamous. 1t ought
to defeat Tllden. He deserves all he gets" DEM
ocratic member Of the Commission is reported to
have remarked to friend this morning that if any,
body depended on his vote to support Cronns per.

IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 18.-The all-absorbina
topic of converse ton in legislative halls State
Offices and hotels today has been in regard to the
decision of the Electoral Tribunal in the case Of
Louisiana. Early in the day there seemed to be
only One general opinion and that was that the Com
mission would not take evidence beyond the certif-
Gates. 1t must be said however, that there an
anxious suspense. All day long members of the Leg
slature receiving kilograms Dquirng for news
There seemed to be much interest and anxiety as
when the Cincinnati Convention was balloting for
candnates. As soon as the result was known this
afternoon The TRIBUNEs correspondent called at
the Office of Gov. Hayes He found Gov. Hayes
chatting with some friends. The Governor arose
and extended his hand In his usual cordial manner.
THE TRIBUNE's correspondent announced to him
the decision of the Commission and was the first to
congratulate the future President on the result
Gov. Hayes expressed his thanks for the courtesy,
and quietly remarked that the indications
were certainly very encouraging to the Re-
publicans. He exhibited no signs of emotion as the
announcement was made. The Executive office was
soon filled with friends of the Governor who called
to express their congratulations. In the Legisla-
ture the news was announced and was received with
expressions of qualification by the Republicans, who
have been full both of hope and anxiety for the sue
cess of their candidate The Democrats received
the news with little if any interest saying they bad
given up hope since the Florida decision. Some OF
them expressed themselves entirely satisfied with
Gov. Hayes as President. The Republicans have re-
NAMED very quiet since the election, and have left
to the Democrats all the glory of making noise
and doing it with confidence; but now they feel
that their cause has triumphed. stream of con-
gratuatory kilograms from all sections of the coun-
try has been received by Gov. Hayes this evening.

duy, when the sun was shining, the experiment
commenced. The lady was carried to the par

OF an hour or two the family was startled BY q
noise in the parlor, fearing that the lady had
fallen from her chair. On entering the parlor,
what was their astonishment to find tlat she
had actually risen from her chair and walked
across the floor. Strength had returned to her
limbs, she was able to move her arms, and I'M

Good Advice,

Now Is the time of year for Pncum-
onia, Lung Fever, &c. Every family
should have bottle of Boschec's Ger
man Syrup. Don't allow for one mo-
ment that cough to take hold of your
child, your family or yourself. Con-
sumption, Asthma, Pneumonia, Group,
Hcmorrhages, and other fatal diseases
may set 1t. Although it is true Ger
man Syrup is curing thousands of these
dreaded diseases, yet 1t is much better
to have il at hand when three doses
will cure you. One Bottle will last
your whole family Il whole winter and
keep you safe from danger. If you
are consumptive, do not rest until you
have tried this remedy. Sample Bot
