Of COMBINATIONS

Washington, d. G. April 4.--The re.
publican senators in caucus this morning
decided TO continue their efforts to procure
the passage of ths pending resolution for
the immediate election Of senate oticers, by
adhering persislently to tho policy and pro-
grsmme heretofore pursued. This determ-
nation was reached after An exhaustive intey-
charge of views and by vote which is said
to have been substantially unanimous Tho
caucus discussed thesuggcsted eypediency of
allowing the deadlock to be bgoken from
time to time by executive sessions for con-
firmaton of union teeted nominations, but il
WAS decided that at least for the present
this Course would be advisable. The only
other matter touched ON at to.day's meeting
was the long continued delay In transporting
the remains of late Senator Carpenter to
| Wisconsin, and it was agreed ON all hands
that members of tho senate committee Ap-
pointed for this purpose should make imme-
diate arrangements for pairing ana proceed
to perform their mission.
The arguments advanced in caucus to-day
as reasons for indefinite maintenance by the
republicans of their present position, were IN
substance as follows: The first ques-
tion involved in the democratic op-
position to the pending resolution ia whether
the majority or minority of tho senate shall
construe the action; thst for msiority 80 suo-
cumb to minority now in the matter OF
choice Of offices would pave the way for sub

importance hereafter There IL no legIsla.

and no injury 10 result TO pubic interests
from the delay in confirming the nomiustIonS
TO offices already filed. The present is the
best time 10 meet the issue above Indicated
and to meintain the principle that which Inc
majority must prevail and thai
the tho election Of candidates nominated
, by the majority, including Eiddlebargcr
t must be insisted on AS q means for sustaining
and promoting alliances between republi
cans and independent democrats ia Virgini,
! and other southern states. II was argued IL
I caucus that the issue, whether or not tai
republicans of tho senate will support To,
, alleged movement in Virginia, for free ballot
and fair count has been joined 10 the Other
, issues by the nomination of Riddle lebeyger, ant
that to abandon his proposed election woult

diminish the prospects OF its spread through
portions of the south.

possible that the policy Of delaying transac

A Lovely Lot.

A few days ago Mr.. A. M. Gibson, for sew
eral years the Washington correspondent OF
the New York Sun, was appointed Govern
ment detective through the Blaine influence
and was set to work on the Star Route BUSH
ness. Gibson had affected the detective role
before joining the ranks of journalism. As a
Sun correspondent he did some effective work
in hunting down the Radical rascals and find
ing out the secrets of the political rings of
both parties. His salary was not large, but
he maraged in a short time to accumulate
considerable property. He purchased q fine
house a nice pair of horses, and he has beef
noted for some time one OF the swells of
Washing ton. It is claimed that he didn't al
ways print as much information IS he gathered,
and there are hints that he earned more by
than publication. At all events
his record is little crooked. The Star Route
swindlers are after his scalp. He has sworn
to send Dorsey to the penitentiary, and Dor
sey's friends have sworn to send him up the
road first. 1t will be seen at glance that
this is combination we'll calculated to enlfv-
en- Washington during the dull summer sea-
son.-Post-Dispatch.

From Annapolis.
ANNAPOLIS, Mo-, June 9Th, 1881.


Ed. Register-
Having just been reading the REGISTER. my
eyes caught the caption, .Guiliver's' Trip
Down the Road, )" and / thought that de-
nunciation of many Of his falsehoods was
now in order.
AS for his praise Of lronton, we have no
fault to find; for we admire Ironton rs city,
and respect its inhabitants, who are social
aud generous-hearted people. But when
..Gulliver'' presumes to cast reproach on An
napolis, by willful falsehoods, we object by
contradicting his statements, viz:
LIST. There is not now, nor never was there,
three saloons at this place.
ID. There is population Of over 100, in
stead Of 40, at this place.
He says he left here hungry. which proves
him to be chronic tramp; for Mrs. H. H.
Peters keeps a hotel here that VIII compete
with any this side of st. Louis, either In fare
or in prices. And II he was strapped, as he
leads us to surInise, he could get job easily
enough to pay for his dinner, most aseuredly.
And it is we'll known that the Annapolis girls
are too well disposed TO pay much attention
TO tramps.
We would advise .GuIliver,n the next time
he starts ont, TO try and procure STAMPS"
eHough to pay for his HASH and when he
writes fiction, to infuse little wit or humor,
SO we can determine which he would rather
be-a knave or fool. GABE.
