IHn6 mas goodly following in the
House. 1t is urged in Frye's favor
as against Kasson, of Iowa, that
the long continuous service OF Frye
in Congress and his eminent pub
lie service entitled him to preside
over Republican House. Edward
Mcpherson, late Clerk OF the
House, it is said, would be again
willing to accept that trust. He
would probably meet with little or
no opposition. The veteran parli-
amentarisn, John NJ. Barclay, will
in all probability resume his old
position of Journal Clerk Of the
House. Elk Secretary Dorsey, 1t is
said, would like to succeed Colonel
Burch as Secretary OF the Senate.
There are many rumors that Ma
hone. of Virginia, will act with
To- Republicans and tie the Senate.
