The failure of the democratic ma
jority in the house of representatives
TO make up a quorum on Wednesday,
when the republicans abstained from
voting, and the marked success Of the
latter's flibustering tactics, will proba-
bly, lead to the postponement of further
efforts to pass the electoral resolution
until Taylor, the democratic member
who left for Tennessee to take part in
the senatorial contest, shall return, and
perhaps until a majority shall have un-
seated Martin, the North Carolina re-
publican, whose seat, according to a
majority report of the election commit
tee, is to be given to the democratic
contestant. These two additional votes
would exactly complete a quorum, COM
posed wholly of democrats, but even If
they be secured, the republicans intend
to continue TO lilibuster against the
adoption of the electoral resolution,
and in view of the skill displayed by
them in devising the novel obstructive
proceedings of Wednesday, which was
a total surprise to the majority, there
is considerable reason for doubling
whether the majority a in any event
effect its present purpose. The repub-
lieans have unanimously agreed TO
stand FIRM, in their oppositson to this
measure, and say they will persist in
employing dialtory tactics against it,
until the second Wednesday in Februa-
ry, orthe fourth of March il necessary.
