Could Get all that were Wanted

senator ROBERTSON, OF South Carolina, told
President GRANT a truth, report says, that
caused him to g listen with interest" Stuff!
1.-THE President pretended that what ROBERT
SON told him was new to him he was only
apossuming." What did ROBERTSON tell
him? Among other things ROBERTSON told
the President that the Returning Board Of
South Carolina "would have thrown out
!" other counties besides Edgefeld and
nLaurens had it been necessary in order to
.tenable them to figure up majority for
CHAMBERLAIN, and there would have been
ssiust as much justification in throwing out
" other counties as the two named"
This local Yiilainy is exactly the same with
the strategy OF the national villainy. TWAS
found that South Carolina, Florida, and
Louisiana were necessary to elect HAYES
that they would exactly do, it-and ZACH.
CHANDLER telegraphed to Radical leaders in
those States to inform him whether they
could defeat the Democrats in those States
and give each OF them to HAYES. We know
that there must have. been the prompt reply
that the thing could be done that the. Demo
cratic attempts at .fraud," Mialses swear.
ing,v and HbribsrY1 could be defeated.
.ImEediately The honest Radicals i went
to work, and Federal soldiers aided In
tinidations to the arts Of Radicalism, aid
the, three States were captured Being
.satissed that they would answer, GRANT
and his Cabinet went no furthers but had

WASHINGTON. NoTEs.- Washington, JAN
uary 17.-Indications are that the meeting
Of the National Democratic Committee to-
morrow night will not favor any unusual
demonstration on the part Of the Democracy
in Washington pending the counting OF the
electoral vote by Congress. .~ ~.
The proposition that the functions of the
president pro tenn. of the Senate have scope
beyond opening the returns OF which he is
custodian, and handing them to the official
tellers, may be regarded as abandoned.
William E. Chandler will be reported in
contempt in Committee on Privileges and
Duties OF the House. He refuses to answer
whether dispatches received at Tallahassee
had reference to troops and money until
permitted by Governor Stearns, who was
bis client. He claims to have acted rs legal
adviser, and that his knowledge is privi-
legged. -, a .s 4r.g,a l..-.-t
Congressman Blair, Of New: Hampshire,
Is not at all in doubt as to where he stands
ON the presidential question. In bis speech
accepting q. denomination on Tuesday he
said: II firmly believe that justice and the
unimpeached and unimpeachable forms OF
law now demonstrate the election OF Mr..
Hayes; and I see nothing but successful
treason, which is revolution, that can pre-
vent bis triumphant succession to the presi-
dency of the United States. To elect q
President and then to- compromise away his
Inauguration under threats OF revolution or
Of violence, or for pfEnder, or from any
cause whatever, is the destruction Of con-
stitutional government 1t is the establish
ment of precedent which will abolish
elections, because, in all future time, fraud
and violence before, coupled with noise and
threatening after, the decision OF the ballot
box, will have only to fellow that precedent
| in order to reverse the DEGREES of the peo-
pie at the polls whenever it is more plea
SAINT to threaten rebellion than to acquiesce
in the result of therlaws OF the land"

there by his request. lie had not recommended
appointments in the New-York Custom House dur
ing the last eight years, and he defed the author
tiles to show the contrary. Mr.. Conhling closed
his speech with a feeling appeal on behalf of his
own personal honor and dignity. He said Mr. Roose-
welt was his bitter personal enemy who had lost no
opportunity Of denouncing him, and he appealed to
Senators to protect him and the four millions Of
people he represented.
During his speech, MI Conklng referred two or
three times 20 Senator Blaine This is the first time
in more than twelve years that the New-York sena-
tor has alluded TO the Senator from Maine in any
public remarks. The two have not exchanged
word during that period.
IL was Mr.. Coukling's intention TO close the de-
bate. but after he took his seat Mr. Iloar claimed
the attention of The Senate on behalf OF the Prcs-
dent. He was interrupted by Messrs Teller,
Mcmillan Kirkwood, and others. and an excited
controversy arose between him and Senator Teller,
in which some severe remarks were made.

fatigued with the long continuance of the session.,
