Party Cancuses.
The DEMOCRATS.

WASHINGTON, March IA caucus Of Dem
ocrats has this morning fully ratified the con-
clusion of Saturday to go right ahead with
the organization of the Senate. The commit
tee appointed Saturday to arrange the standing
and select committees, consisting of Hill, of
Georgia, chairman; Pendleton, Lamar, Harris,
Farley, Ransom, Garland, Davis, of West Vir-
ginia, and Cockrell, was not ready to report, as
the work OF arranging committees and tllllng
vacancies was not completed.
Immediately upon the adjournment of the
Senate the caucus reassembled and decided it
was the duty of the majority to organize the
Senate promptly and expedite the business,
and that the Senate cannot properly proceed
until the committees are organized. The old
committees will be maintained as far as the
changes will admit. Bayard will be chairman
of the finance committee; Davis, of Illinois,
the Judiciary; johnson, foreign relations;
Jones, of Florida, public lands; Slater, agri-
culture; Cockrell military affairs; Hampton,
mines; Greome, pensions, and the other prin-
cipal committees will have the same chairmen
as before.
THE EPUBLICANS.
The Republicans of the Senate held two eau
susses to-day and discussed the evident in
tention of the Democrats to go ahead with the
organization. This intention was criticised
an unfair advantage, and the Republicans are
determined to attempt to reorganize when
their vacancies are filled. 1t was stated that
the new Senator's to succeed Carpenter and the
cabinet ministers would all be here by the last
of next week, and agreed that the Republi-
cans oppose any organization before then.
An extra session of Congress was also dis
cussed and favored. 1t was said that if the
Democratic Senators take the present advan-
tage to control the Senate, the Republicans
can get early possession Of the House and
probably the Senate by an extra session. The
necessity Of funding bill is mentioned as
the reason for an extra session. Some
indignant feeling was manifested at
what was pronounced the disposition of the
Democrats to play grab game. The idea of
the Democrats is that they can organize the
Senate and get through business and adjourn
in few days, leaving the Democratic su-
premacy to stand until next December. If
this policy prevails the Chinese treaty will not
be taken up, as the Senate will only act On
business the President sends in. If the session
lasts until the vacancies are filled the Repub-
licans will upset the organization unless as
sured Malone will not support them. It is
probable the Republicans will refuse to ar
range the minority of the committees, but
will say to the Democrats. ssYou take the work
in hand and fix it your way" In that event
the Democrats will leave the minority as last
session, as near as possible. This afternoon
the Republican caucus adjourned, after short
session, to await the action of the Democrats
before deciding on positive action. They ex-
pect to hear from the Democrats through
special committee tomorrow.

Cameron and JEFF Dapis.

Simon Cameron recently related the
following to correspondent of the Phil
adelphia Press: II remember one morn
ing during the excited debates in the
Senate prior to the retirement of the
Southern Senators that jeff Davis, with
whom had been upon the most intimate
terms for long time,
invited me to breakfast to
talk over the questions at issue,
and to ask if I would not use my inf1u-
ence in behalf of peaceful separation
The talk between us while at breakfast,
which lasted some time, was quite anima-
ted, but all in good temper, but toward
its conclusion it became very warm
Mr.. Davis was then, as l suppose
he is now, man of ungovernable will,
and, of course, took positive ground that
the States had right to secede, and
would do so unless their demands were
acceded to. denied this right, and said
that any attempt on their part to leave
the union would result in war. Both
of us were stubborn upon the diverse
positions taken. He got quite excited,
and as was leaving said quite angrily:
"sCameron, if there is an attempt on
the part of the north to coerce us, and
war between the States results, 1 will
draw line through the country at the
Potomac river No, he added ,immedi-
ately, I will draw the line at the Sus-
quehanna, and your house shall be my
headquarters. l answered much in the
same temper: "You will never be per-
mitted to break up the union, and if you
try it, war will be the result, you will be
soundly thrashed, and slavery in this
country will be doomed when the first
gun is fred History has verified the
prediction. Davis soon after left the
Senate, and have never seen him since"

TERRI BILE STORM.
LONDON, March "A most terrible shipping
disaster occurred on the Aberdeenshire coast
Saturday morning, when no less than nine
vessels were wrecked and 100 lives lost. One
vessel was the Liverpool ship Ben Rhidding,
from Calcutta. All the crew, thirty in
number, perished within sight of land, the
rocket apparatus being unable to reach the
vessel. The scene after the Rhidding struck
was heartrending. Some of the crew were
seen clinging to the rigging, while others
were hanging from it dead. When the masts
gave way twelve men went down with the
main mast and four with the fore mast. No
such storm is remembered within the century
as the one that ragged in Scotland from Thurs
day till Saturday.
