THE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS FOR THE NoMI-
NATION OF DooRKEEPER-GENER
CHARLES L. FIELD CHOSEN.
WASHINGTON, April s, 1873.
Notwithstanding expectations that the
Montgomery Blair resolutions would be
acted upon, the democratic caucus to-
night confined its work to the selection
of candidate for Doorkseper in place
of Mr.. Polk, retired. One ballot was
taken resulting as follows ;EFleid 69 I;
Shields, 20; Mccoy, IS: and French, T.
The choice of General Field was there
upon made unanimous.
The selection of the caucus, General
Charles l.. Field, graduated from West
Point about the year 1919, and at the out
break of the rebellion had risen to the
rank of lieutenant colonel of calvary. A
citizen of Virginia, he resigned from the
army TO cast his fortunes with the Con-
federacy and rose to the rank of major
general, serving good portion of the
war in Virginia under General Lee. In
the year 1875, with, it is said, some help
from General Sherman, he succeeded in
getting an appointment from the khe-
dive of Egypt; and, with Generals Loring
and Stone, participated in the campaign
against the Abyssinlans. He returned TO
the United States last year, and, having
decided to enter politics, had his disabih-
ties removed by an act of the present
Congress. General Field is type of the
old school courteous Southern gentleman
and is exceedingly popular with his
friends. He is siX feet three inches in
height and robust in proportion. He Is
credited TO Georgia in the distribution
of the House patronage.
Speaker Randall, in the opinion of
many of the democratic members, made
a mistake to-day in not deciding prompt
ly that the motion of General Butler TO
proceed to the election Of a Doorkeeper
was not a privileged motion. If the
House was dissatisfied with the decision
an appeal could have been taken from it
and the responsibility then would have
rested upon the House. As it is the
sequel is not likely to be pleasant for the
democratic side of the House. Great
stress will be put upon the fact that
General Field was a West Point cadet
and a major general in the rebel army,
covering The final movements of General
Lees army.

The Committee will next hear from

advanced it must come from them.
1t is to be hoped that their views
will not be as ridiculous and selfish as
those above.
This Committee can confer a great
benefit upon society by obtaining re-
lie BILE information of the actual con-
dition of the working classes. With
out doubt tie number of those willing
to work that cannot find employment
of any sort is greatly exaggerated. An
Investigation of this sort is going on

ing classes. Wages are low and fam
lilies have to accommodate themselves
| to lessened incomes. 1t is also true
that large numbers of men cannot OBJ
tain the kind of employment they de-
sire, and some can find nothing to do
in some sections, but most of the
latter belong to a class that have
always, even in best of times, had a
precarious existence.
If the number of those that want
| work and can't find it has been mag
nified the country ought to know it,
and the Committee can not employ
itself better than by looking into the
matter and making the true condition
| of labor known.
