A Republican Administration Helped
Out by Democratic Senators.

But for the generosity of the Democrats
whether mistaken or not remains to bee
Been-thc Fraudulent President would bc
without Cabinet to-day. The least unity
Of opposition among them would have re-
iccted every name Some Of the new Sena-
tors like BECK. who had most herccly
condemned the Electoral Commission. are
said to have been conspicuous in volunteer
Ing support to the nominations. Others
thought it sharp stroke of policy which
would divide and distract the Republicans.
Others probably had personal reasons, which
will come to the surface in good time.
Mr.. RvARrs passed through the ordeal Of
the Committee on Foreign Relations barely
by the skin Of his teeth. II is now composed
OF five Republicans and four Democrats.
Mr.. CoSKLING from motives Of delicacy was
absent, leaving the committee equally
divided. II one Of the Democrats had voted
In the negative, there would have been an
adverse report, and then the fight in the
Senate might have been lively.
There Is no escape from the fact that 10y
this course the Democrats have not
strengthened their position or satisfied their
friends. These think it was bunder to take
any part in the Republican quarrel, or to
contribute by any vote or act in organizing
IN Administration founded in fraud and viii
lainy. The beneliciaries will not thank
them for this exhibition Of liberality and
personal courtesy, aud past experience
might have taught them a more practical
style of wisdom.
In the factous divisions Of the Repuh-
hcan party the Democrats We're able to decide
the elections of senator la Wisconsin. Mn
nesota, and Michigan. In every case thev
have been disappointed, and cheated by
the cheap professions of candidates who
pretended to be liberal in their views AMI
Inclined to reform. What has been gained
by substituting CAMERON for CARPENTER in
Wisconsin, or MCMILLAN for RAMSEY in
Minnesota, or even CHRTsrIANCY for CHAN
DLER in Michigan? They all stick u
the party, its discipline and its mca-
sures, with more tcnacity than their
predecessors, because Of the manner in
which they were elected; aud they have
gone further than the worst OF the Old lot
would have doue, in uphoidng every in
iquity while thc personnel of the Senate has
not been improved by tho change. Tie
