NOTES AND GOSSIP.

Committee work senator Mitchell on
His Esr-AatiOnal Returning hoard.
etc
WASHINGTON, February S.-A full
cabinet meeting, excepting Secretary
Morrill,, was held this morning.
The best opinion still Is that the
Commission will giveFlorida to Hayes.
Albert Peyser, al elector for West
Virginia, exhibited his naturalization
papers.
The president has recognized James
Hunter, vice consul of Portugal, at
Darien, Georgia.
Senator Mitchell says the report
published in New York this morning
and In the States this evening, pur-
porting to give the points OF his re-
port on the Oregon case, is incorrect.
The Electoral Commission, by vote
Of eight to seven, decided that the four
electoral votes of Florida should be
counted for Hayes and Wheeler. A
final report was signed by Bradley,
Edmunds, Frelinghuyssn, Garfield,
Hoar, Miller, Morton and Strong.
The Commission decided not to re.
move secrecy nntH 10 a, m. tomorrow.
Ii seems to be the understanding that
the Commission has decided to give
the State to Hayes, but 1t is claimed
that the conclusion was reached by
two Republican members of the court,
upon the ground that to do otherwise
would be fatal to the final successes Of
their party. 1t is true that neither
party is happy over the little that has
TRANSFERRED.
The House committee examined A.
3. Levisee, Louisiana Republican
elector, who testified that he resigned
his Office as United States commission.
er about November 20, 1876. Levisee
tells the old story about an attempt to
bribv him TO vote Tor Illden' Mr..
Cavanace, who was before the Return.
Ing Board for the Democratic party,
testified in the matter Of the returns
from Vernon, He say the certificates
from the commissioners OF election Z.
They were received on the 22d of De.
Gem her by the board from the secretary
of State and opened in witness pres
ence. Wells said, "Tun them over to
the clerks" That was all. No other
mem Der of the board said anything
about them. He knew that Lsvisee
was United States commissioner as
late as Maven, Der 10, and Brewster was
surveyor general Of the land office.
