From our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. April S.-Tbe political ut
teranccs made by a Republican during the
debate in the Senate have caused more quiet
comment than the declarations of Mr.. Sher-
man that It was manifest long ago that Gen
eral Malone had no stopping. place short OF
the Republican party, and that be tbe Ohio
Senatorl expected before he came here that
the logic OF events would drive him into
the Republican ranks. "When he comes
here, said Mr.. sherman. and tells us he
Is willing 10 act with us in carrying out all
the great principles for which the Republic
can party has stood for twenty years. we
will receive him into our fellowship, treat
him as one Of US, confer upon him aud his
offices and hOnorS, and share with him the
bread and meat at our table as friends and
kinsmen."
THE RESOLUTION WILL not Re CONSIDERED.
Mr.. Farley, of California, announced to
Mr.. Dawes last evening that it was manifest
that the resolution for the election Of Messrs.
Gorham. Riadleberger & Co., would never
be considered, and 1t can never be while ff-
teen Democrats are resolved 10 stand up
against II. He made strong appeal to his
colleague 10 aid in taking the Senate into eX-
ecuiive session TO consider the Chinese trea-
ty. This is the allabsorbng question on the
Pacific slope, ana Republicans IS well rs
Democrats want it acted on Immediately.
Senator Farley. by the way, is native Of
Albemlrle. and when quite young moved to
Kanawha county and then to Logan county
before going to California. He does credit
to Virginia. and is one Of the most stalwart
OF the sjalwirt Democratic senators.
FIRST. CLASS SPEECHES on THE DEMOCRATIC
SIDE.
| Everybody comedies the fact that Demo
cratic senators have enhanced their reputa-
| ton rs debaters and as statesmen during
| the pending discussion. \ Democrat who
| has attended the debates for many years,
since and before the war. says that the
speeches Of Senators Brown, Hill, Johnston,
| Call, Beck, Mcpherson, Bayard, Morgan,
| Pendleton, Vance, Ransom, Lamar, Jones,
| VOORHEES,. Hampton, and others. would
have done credit TO any session Of the Sem
ate of his day. Mr.. VOORHEES, is yet 10
speak, and Mr.. Beck will next week make
set speech, in which he will make Republic
can fur fly. Senator Butler, OF South Caro-.
lima, has already given ioretaste OF what
his speech will be.
THE WAR TO BE CARRIED INTO AFRICA NEXT
WEEK.
| Heretofore the Democrats have allowed
the Republicans to make all manner OF
charges against the South, a1d their positive
denials of them have not induced their op-
ponents to stop this mode of warfare. Now,
next week hear that the Democrats mean
to devote themselves not to defending the
South, but 10 an aggressive exposure OF the
corruptionS of the ballOt.bOX, the resiric-
tions Of suffrage, and the disfranchisement
of white men at the North. Messrs. Beck,
Call. and others have tried this already

WANTED TO BREAK TIE DEADLOCK.
Barnum's giant came TO the Senate to-day.
but found the chamber deserted. He said
he was able to break the deadlock, and had
come to do il. No one who saw him doubt
ed his ability to do most anything that re-
qured weight and strength. He was a
Confederate soldier, and was at Abingdon
during the war. By the way, many who
yesterday predicted the Republicans would
stand firm SAID tonight that the outside
pressure will prove too strong for them,
and that they will have to surrender by the
! 20.h.
| LETTERS FROM VIRGINIA TO SENATOR JOHN
ST0N.
Senator Johnston does not receive letters
by the thousand, but every mail brings him
large number from intelligent and nfluen-
tial Virginian>, who commend the course OF
himself and iellow.Democratic senators,
and urge that they remain firm IN their hos
tilItv to the coalition. Every Nir9inlan
here OF any prominence also receives letters
asking for copies Of the speeches OF Messrs.
Brown, Johnston, Hill, Lamar, Bayard,
Morgan, &c. 4 number Of Senator john
ston's letters to-day announced the fact that
many heretofore conspicuous Readiusters
have declared against General Malone.
MANY READJUsTERS HAVE GONE HONE.
II is noticeable fact that the score; OF
Readjusters from your State who came here
at the beginning OF the executive session OF
the Senate have one by one folded their tents
ard cone home, there to speculate on the
deadlock. Those who remain do not APP
near at the Capitol often.
THE EFFECT OF A THREE.DAYs' RECESS.
The Democrats have nothing to lose by
the three days reces, OF the Senate as they
have no nominations they are personally IN
terested in having confirmed. II VIII give
Republicans time, however, to deliberate
calmly on the situation, and calculate whe-
Their they have more to gain than 10 lose W
preventing the Senate from going into exc
cutive session.
