read referring to the reported bargaining Ut
John Davenport Ia New York cuurcrnny the

to crush the Stawurts.'
THE yIcE*rnEsInENr.
Pending the reading Of this Slip Senator David
Davls. OF Illinois. appeared. and the reading
was suspended, in order to have him examined.
In reply 10 Scovl!le: he suited his official
position, and timt he was not connected with
eitherof the political parties OF the country.
Questionable you know of breach in the
Republican party growing out Of the difficulties
last summer between President Garfield and
Senator CON bling? Answer-I had no personal
knowledge OF it, no. going into caucus with
either association. knew there were factions
in the Republican party.
Q.-Fron your knowledge Of the political diff
ticutties which grew w ut that TIME, and
from your knowledge OF the american people,
what. tn your opInion. was the probability uf
those difficulties disrupting and destroying the
Republican party? A.-Taat Is Il far-reachiug
question. The Kepup1cun party
HAS NOT BEEN DESTROYED,
and yet there have been breaches In 1t. There
Is only one way in which the Republican party
can be destroyed
Q.-Whut way Is that7 A.-The disruption of
the Democratic party wonlt. destroy 1t.
OILS it your honest opinion that the difficult
ties between the brAnches factions Of the Re-
publican party have bcen. or urc, in danger Of
absolutely disrupttn. tue Republican purity?
A.-Thut Is II mere matter OF opinion. / cannot
unlerstund this line uf examination. The ltc-
publican party is extraordinary organization.
do not believe it will die until the Deinocratic
party is dead.
Q.-Whut is your opinion on this point, whether
the SUCCESS OF tie Democratic purity ut this time,
or ut the next Presidential election, would i'm
peril the existence Of the Republic? Al do
no. think the success OF any political party
would imperl the Republic
| Do NOT RELIEVE THAT AT ALL,
Q.-Do you believe tho success of the Demo-
cratic party: would tend, IN any degree, To brsng
on another civil War; A.-So, do not
think the southern people are the tas1 people In
the world to desire to go into any wat IT there
! he any war, it will come from somewhere else
| thun in the South.
