draw. Several Of the congressman ex-
pressing this opinion are known 10 be

prominent senator, who IL always well

whose relations with Tilden are friend

 NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-The excitement in political circles over the combination to con firm the heads of departments tomorrow at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen con tinued unabated to-day. The City Hall pre- sented lively appearance and all the prom inent politicians of both factions were dis cussing the latest information The friends of Mir.

The Republican leaders are not agreed over the combination and held caucus this after noon to decide whether the combination will be kept or not It is stated on good authori- ty that Mayor Cooper will not include among his nominations tomorrow a candidate for Comptroller out of courtesy to Mir. Kelly. The Mayor has intimated that he will hold back for 8 week or so the nomination of a candidate for the Comptrollership. Those opposed to Kelly say that a combination in some shape other will be formed and suc- cessfully notwithstanding what is said The whole thing rests on the action of the Repub- Hcan caucus.

 The House Committee on Military Affairs will on Tuesday next consider General McCook's bill to place General Grant on the retired list of the army. This bill has ere ated considerable discussion among Senators and Representatives. Some Democrats op- pose the bill on the ground that General Grant took an active part in the recent presi- dential election.

 names of new members may be presented by
 any member of the association. The pres

From the executive board who have already held two meetings, it was reported to the association that after full consideration of the matter of appointment of general secretary for the association, there being several applications for the place, it was unanimously decided to ask Miss M. A. Ford
 one of the members of the board and not an applicant for the place, to endeavor to ar range her present business, if possible so that she could accept this position to which the ladies of the executive board have elected her. We understand that Miss Ford has the matter under consideration, and it is hoped will be able to engage in the responsible du- ties expected of her by the time rooms for the use of the association secured and furnished. The appointment of committees on the furnishing of rooms, employment and on boarding houses was considered by the members present, and after an interesting discussion of these subjects, with suggestions by Rev.
