A srARTLENG PROPHECY.
A Washington Correspondent Gives the
Radical Programme.

washington Special to Cincinnati Enquirer
have taken the pains to feel tonight the
congressional pulse on the subject of a new
election. [ am constrained 10 the following
conclusions:
l. Ii the republicans find that public
opinion continues to manifest itself against
the counting in of Hayes that the plot will
be abandoned.
3 That the republicans will recede from
the position assumed by them that Hayes
is elected-if the democrats will consent to a
new election next fall, the president of the
senate in the interim TO act as the president
3. That Morton will be elected. under such
a state OF circumstances, president OF the
senate.
4. That as a candidate of the party il new
election is agreed upon, Hayes will be
dropped and a new candidate substituted
and that the present indications point 10
the nomination OF Grant.
5. That between now and the time for q
new election the acting president Will maze
oyertures TO the south for the support OF the
republican nominee, by recognizing the
Hampton government in South Carolina
and the Nichols government in Louisiana.
6. That Ben Hill, if elected TO the senate
from Georgia, and Lamar, already elected
from Mississippi, will be admitted 10 their
seats without parley, conditioned upon
their assent to the support OF the above plan.
These conclusions are based upon the very
general impression that enough republican
senators will unite with the democrats to
defeat the scheme of the eouspirators 10
force Hayes into the presidency rather than
have Tilden elected by the house. The re-
publicans will chance a new canvass. They
hold that if defeated the party can be placed
in no worse position than il now is. and in
the meantime policy of Cancellation with
the south may result in manifold advantage
to them.

JIM NYE.
The Effect OF His EIOquence Upon "a
New York Audience.

Utica ObServerl
In the presidential campaign OF 1872 NVe
was in the prime OF his power as political
speaker. He entered heartily into the can
vass as an advocate of Franklin Pierce. He
came to Utica at the first ratification meet
ing and the announcement of his name
sutficed to crowd the old Mechanics
hall. Our people were not very we'll
acquainted with General Pierce at that
time. but they hailed him as hero of the
Mexican war. But the wicked wings started
a story TO the effect that he never was in but
one battle, and he was so frightened then
that he tainted away. The democrats, as IN
duty bound. denied the SANDER, but they
were none the less vexed and troubled by
the story. They withheld the tale from Jim
Nye through fear that il would embarrass
him; but he had heard it somewhere. He
was in excellent condition that night, and
almost every sentence he uttered compelled
applause. Finally in the midst of his eulogy
on Pierce, he exclaimed in loud voice:
But our opponents tell us that he tainted
in battle" Then he made q long pause
while the audience preserved painful,
breathleSs silence. Having riveted every
eye upon himself, he arose 10 his
full height and with magnificent sweep Of
his right hand, and with an indescribable
power of suppressed emotion, he spoke these
words; 81 know not how il may be with
others. but as for me, give me the soldier
who fights until he faintsl' Thereupon
those who were seated rose 10 their feet;
those who were standing jumped up aud
down and yelled like Modoc Indians as they
jumped Men with handkerchiefs waved
them; men with no handkerchiefs flung
their hats into the air, caught them as they
fell, and dung them again. Such bowling,
and cheering, and stamping of feet, aud
clapping of hands, and wild CALCULATIONS of
delight never before shook the rafters ofthat
old hall; and amidst IL all Jim Nye stood
erect, awakening his audience 20 fresh dem
monstrations BY his strong magnetism.
