NEW YORK, April 9.-The Times Albany
special says: Having made up their minds
to vote together, the Republicans who sup
ported Carpenters STRENGTHENING propo-
sition regard the criticisms made upon
them by the press and people with the
usual unconcern, and without the slightest
shame pointed to the roll call, and spoke
Of it as evidence of the entire ability of the
Republican majority to take care of them
selves, in spite Of any popular pressure
upon them. Many of them assert that they
were prepared to favor the plan of the Cit
zens' Committee until they heard that the
meeting which appointed the Committee
Of Twenty had been engineered by Mayor
Grace to obtain control of a branch of the
city government, now controlled by the
Police Commissioners. Judging from
their conversation this morning they are
unchanged in their determination to OPP
pose the Mayors bill, and look forward to
it's rejection by the Senate, as well as to
the failure of the Committee of Conference
to agree upon any bill, and to the retention
by the Police Department of all the powers
in STRENGTHENING matters which it now
possesses. Meantime, the public indigna-
ton in New York grows apace. The press
OF the city, with the exception Of the Tri-
bune, Star and Commercial, severely de-
nounces the action Of the Assembly.
Both sides stand Firm.
WASHINGTON, April s.-The Democrats
and Republicans alike declare that they do
not intend to abandon their position in
the Senate. Two hundred and ~sixty-fvs
nominations await action, as also do five
treaties. 1t is stated that there is some
probability that the Republicans will go
into executive session to confirm the most
important nominations some time next
week, but should an attempt be made to
select certain men for confirmation the
Democrats would probably resist and insist
upon taking W the nominations in proper
order. Judge Tourgee, author OF the Fools
Errand,h seems to control the Federal pat
rnnage in North Carolina. He got the
President to withdraw Ex-Governor Hol-
den's nomination for Postmaster at Raleigh,
and name Nicholl, snex Confederate friend.
North Carolinans object to this interference
of Tourgee, he being a New York man. 1t
is rumored that Tourgee advised the Presi.
dent to replace all of Grants appointments
with new ones, to prevent any attempt to
organize a Grant or Conkling movement in
1884.

Ferry fame, was destitute and living near

Washington dispatch, which says she is in
Washington seeking a Government position.
A Boston special says a subscription list
has been opened there in her behalf, at the
office OF ex-senator Brooks.
