Extra Session Of the Senate.

On Monday next the United States
Senate viii meet in extra session, in ae-
cordance with the proclamation of Presi-
dent Arthur. Owing to the designations
of Messrs- Conkling and Plat, of New
York. and the death of Senator Burnside,
of Rhode Island, the Democrats viii have
three majority. The successors of COnk-
line. Platt and Burnside cannot be sworn
in until the Senate is organized, and that
duty viii devolye upon the Democratic
majority, and we shall be mistaken if they
do not use their advantage. The organiza-
ton Of the Senate has been subject OF
much discussion, aud various and novel
views have been expressed by the press of
the country. The following from the New
York Herald, Of September IS, strikes US
as correct view:
The suggestion that the democrats should
waive .his majority--a suggestion which some
Of our republican friends commend as pa
triotic does not seem 70 hess VIVA i@s"a !.
Nor does it possess the essential element oil
common sense. The republicans lose two
Senators by a political hari-kari and one by
the act OF God. The democrats are IN no
wav responsible. The power they have comes
to them honorabIy. Il isnot only their priv
ilege bat their duty 10 use i. Politics Is
mol sentifnentalism, but hard-headed basi-
ness. If the democrats meet IN the Senate
with majority OF three they should use that
maiority ike hard headed business men

try, and at she same time for whatever point
zeal advantage may accrue from Il

Washington Letter,
Is the Cabinet Large Enough for Blaine and
Conkling-Mr. Blaine Future-Exit Ohio,
Hail New York-About the Assassin.
WAsH1NaroN. D. e.. o.. 5th. ISL

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 9Th, 1881.
Is this to be an ain Memoriam" admin
istration, or will the new President stamp
it with an individuality and a will Of his
own? These questions, of greater or less
interest to the entire country, are questions
of life aud death to hundreds in Washing
ton IF it is to be an an nlemortdnl ad-
ministration, the Cabinet of the deceased
President will be retained, and hundreds
of officials, who hold places directly under
the present Cabinet, will eat their bread in
peace. If the Cabinet is to be changed,
many chiefs of bureaus, and large clerical
force, must be changed with it. For it is
an unwritten law of our civil service that
a new Cabinet officer may appoint his own
corps of assistants. 1t is now pretty def
nite!y known that there will be an entire
change of Cabinet, but it is not believed
that this change will be made before the
called session of the Senate, and may be
not before the regular session of Congress.
Two members of General Garfeld's admin
istration have such experience, talent, aud
reputation, that it is expected they will
almost Immediately reappear in public life.
Mr.. Window will it is thought, be return
ed to the Senate, and Blaine to the House,
where it is believed, he could easily be
elected speaker. Such course by Mr..
Blaine would be great disappointment to
Mr.. Kassou, and other aspirants to this of
fee, tie third in dignity in the United
States. and second in influence only to the
Office Of President Ga the other hand, it
is said that Mr. Blaine will be urged to re-
tain the portfolio of state, and that Mr..
Coukling will be made Secretary Of the
Treasury. The appearance of Mr.. Blaine
and Mr.. Conkling at the same table would
seem to be an impossible spectacle, but il
is said to be the wish Of President Arthur
to enforce harmony between the two stall
wart leaders, whose political views are en-
tirely harmonious, aud whose antagonism
is personal. Il is evident that Ohio is no
longer to be the most favored nation at the
Capital of the United States, aud the idea
is gaining ground that New York is as big
state as Ohio. Well, anything for a
change, a Cabinet without one or two Ohio
men in it viii lack long familiar monot

Republican talk of extravagance and mis-.
