THE PRESIDENCY OF THE srYATE.

NY TELRgRAPIt To- THE TRIBUNE
WAsHISGToN. March 0.-The gossip about tho
possible res gna,ion Of the Presidency of the Seu-
ate by MIR Edmunds after the body meets in
December is not based upon anything the euatOr
hunsclf has said on the subject. There was how
ever, general expression of opinion a ong Sena-
tors before he WAS selected by the caucus that he
would prefer his wIdo field Of usefulness on the
floor and in TN" judiciary Committee. OF which he
IS chairman TO the empty honors Of the presidency
Of the body. and there Is very little doubt that he
will step down in December. 1t has been taken or
granted that Mr.. Anthony. the oldest member of
the b. dy and the choice of the Republican caucus
at the beginning of the last Congress- will succeed
to the place, but this is not certainty. Mr..
Anthony has tho respect and confidence Of
his associates. but he is an old man
and tho duties of the chair are often exlausting
When the subject comes to be considered it will be
urged by some Republicans that n young man is re-
quircd for the post. Mr.. Allison would un-
dOubtedlv be the choice of a majority of the
Republicans, but he will not have 1t.
Mr.. Ingalls, is among tho possibilities for tho
place. Tho free use OF his sharp tongue has. how
ever made him some enemies, and his independent
fear III tine minds Of some Senators that he would
not be n safe man" from party standpoint. Mr.
Cameron. OF Wisconsin, will have a strong backing
for he place Ho is good parliamcUtariau, ana,
