This same member said to ME this after
noon that be did not believe that the Re-
nublicans will oppose the passage OF sepa-
"a q bill prohibiting the, use OF troops at the
no,ls. not liable to the objections which the
bin agreed upon to-day avoids. for, suid ne,

only TO the South, and we Republicans have
abolt como to- the conclusion that the
southern States have gone from us, ard viii

ever, with equal frankDess that we mean to
fight the repeal of the election laws as pro-
posed in the legislative bill by every possible
appliance and to the bitter end. To dispense
with deputy marshals and supervisors OF
elections means the surrender OF New
York 10 the Democratic party in 1880, and
we are not ready for that by long shot.
encountered another Republican member
soon afterwards, who said he saw no OBJ
lection to the. passage of such bill as
have described. Now all this indicates that
an ample provision will be nude before adj
iournment OF Congress for the support OF
the army, and that there is no danger that
"tbe bows in blue" are 10 be starved or
disbanded by The terrible Confederate brl-
gadiers, as the Gar6elds have predicted.
THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS AGREES
UPON THE BlLL--IT WILL. BE INTRODUCED
MONDAY. - -. . ...'.,-s ~. .r n.
.The,House Democratic caucus was in ses-
sion until 5o'clock this afternoon, and
there was not much speaking. BIZ. Cabeii
was the only Yirginian who participated IN
what was said, and he only asked few per-
tinent questions. The bill and preamble
provides fol-. the repeal Of the law aut borlz-
ing the use Of troops at the .nolls. and does
charge OF their duty. Mr.. Ladd, Of Maine,
is to introduce it Monday morn; n 2, and all
.Democrats are relieved -tte present.
They say the Warmest work will come when
they prepare. a separate bill 10 regard to the
deputy marsbaIs and supervisors, as will be
done after the President vetoes; the legisia-
tive bill. ,.,g.t; f,".s5E s..s "a
There were three reports submitted to the
calleus--Viz., the. Joint committees, Thur
mans, and Eaton's.. The first had pre-
amble, and the others none. All agreed in
substance; but differed in phraseoogy. Mr..
Thurman's, which was advocated by Messrs.
Knott. Ewing, aud Reagan, was adopted,
and with it a preamble. The preamble de-
clares that the use OF troops at the polls is
contrary to the spirit OF our -institu-
tions and the traditions OF tue coun.
| try; aud the bill omlts the express
sion '..to keep the peace at the
pols,n but declares that it shall be
used in any OF the States at elections, and
completely avoids the objections OF the
President. It will be introduced in the
House Monday by Mr.. Laid, OF Maine, rs
stated in my first dispatch, according to the
| instructions or the caucus. and vote is 10
| be taken on it Tuesday without deDpte.
| The opinion tonight is that the president
will sign it, and then the army appropria-
ton bill will be passed without debate. Ine
Democrats of the Senate concur Ill ILLS ac-

IsMR. RAUM DECLARES HIMSELF AGAINST kELAhf
" - FOR TOBACCO EXPORTERS.
| have had reason to believe that Mr..
| Ranm and Secretary Sherman favored the
massage OF a bill for the relief OF the export
ers of tobacco, but in q protracted CONVEX
sation with Mr.. Jorgensen to-day he de-
cIared that he will have to fight the bill and
SO will the Treasury Department. One Of
his chief reasons for this is that II he con-
SCENTS to the cancellation OF the bonds OF ex-
porters of tobacco as soon as 1t is placed on
| the outward. bound vessel, he must do the
tsame thing in regard to the bonds OF the
exporters OF distilled spirits. In fact, nc
| cording to. his testimony, the immediate
cause of the passage OF the law 1t is now pro-
posed to change was that two cargoes OF Ii
quor which were ayowedlY shipped TO
Europe were .relanded in the South.
| The clause repeating the law in question
was stricken from. the revenue bill by the
Senate Finance Committee, i now learn, az
ter considerable discussion. There are a
great many private agencies at work
against the change which our tobacco eX-
porters so reasonably ask. First, the Ameri-
can consuIs abroad get fat fees from handling
these bonds, and. There is division in the
Treasury Department whose occupation
would be gene, hear, If the relief were
granted. Now, there are officers of the Gov
ernment familiar with the operations and
burdens OF the present arrangement who
