Wall pe IuhAf bblDlt w 6ahtsdhys - -,
list will be completed tomorrow, so far
as the Republican members of 1t are
concerned, but 1t is doubtful II the two
places which Hayes has finally con-
oluded to give TO Southern Conserva-
tives will be filed even by Wednesday.
Up TO this time Hayes has been mainly
occupied In listening to remonstrances
from his partisan friends against the
policy he intends to pursue, but he gives
them no satisfaction. Yesterday when
Logan's friends made application for the
War Department for him, and recon-
mended Logan's party services, Hayes
said: eyes, Logans services had been
eminent" and then remarked to q by
stander, "but eminent party services
have ceased to be the highest recon-
mendation In the eyes Of the country ut
large"
The Morton crowd Is very blue to-
night, and some OF them have already
begun to mutter "reminiscences Of Andy
johnson. Blaine's gang is also sour,
and Bob Ingersoll Ia reported as saying
that IL Hayes went back on the men
who counted him In, he ungersolD will
devote the whole Of next year to making
him wish he hadn't.
PARTY SERVICES.
The outlook as u whole is that Hayes
will go further than even Mathews or
Foster have expected In the direction of
non -partisansbip. But there Is no tell
Ing how long he may withstand the
pressure being brought to bear upon
him from the other side.
RADICAL COMBINATION WITH T1LpfN.
Some OF the dlsgusted Radicals hint
that II Hayes Andy Johnsonizes, they
will see to 1t that the Supreme Court
Gusts him on quo Hdfrdnto, and will
take the chances Of making terms with
Tilden.
The report is current here that Hayes
was impelled to take the inaugural oath
secretly to-day, for fear of assassina-
tion; but IL has no foundation. There
is nobody here who thinks OF assassina-
tion unless 1t may be some disgruntled
Radicals, and Hayes knows It.
The extra session OF Congress will be
called for about the first or the middle
OF May. 1t will probably last two
months. In fact 1t may take that long
TO elect Speaker. It Is we'll under
stood that the Democratic caucus will
be unable to control the organization Of
the next House, and there will be u
Donnybrook fight for the Speakership.
BLAINE's SCHEMES.
il Blaine fails to get what he wants,
he will resign from the Senate, come
back to the House from Maine, make a
combination to elect himself Speaker,
and turn all his guns against Hayes.
As he will probably fail, this pro-
gramme is not possible.
LOUISIANA MATTERS.
The Louisiana men express perfect
satisfaction at the assurances they have
received from Hayes relative to their
State government.
The carpet -baggers are perfectly
frantic. Their only hope is in getting
John Logan into the War Department.
LAMAR AND DOUGLASS.
An exciting scene occurred in the Hall
OF the House just after the Democratic
caucus had adjourned, which, under
other circumstances, might have led to
tragic results. Aggravated by some
conservative remarks which Lamar had
made, Douglass of Virginia, went up
close to where Lamar was sitting in his |
seat and shaking his fist at him, de-
nounced him as a traitor to his party, a
man who had sold out in order to secure |
his title to a seat in the Senate. Lamar,
observing the condition in which |
Douglass was, paid no attention to him,
merely remarking that he was not in q
condition to be responsible for his
words. Friends interfered, and Mr..
Douglass was led away; but he soon
found his way back and again COM
menced abusing Lamar. The latter be-
came exasperated and was about to in
hict summary punishment when MIR.
Cauifield and others persuaded him to
retire from the hall and the matter end
ed there, at least for the present.
RANDALL's vALEDIOroRY.
The conclusion of Randali's valedic-
tory as Speaker is as follows:
In respect to political events, the |
session has been one of the most critical
in our history. The majority in this
House, representing majority of all
the voters in the United States, and, as
we believe and know, a majority
OF the electors duly chosen at the
recent election for President and Vice
President has been made to choose be-
tween aequiescence in usurpation or
reaching the right through civil COM
motion. The Democratic party yielded
