tion In Certnin Contingency.
WARRINGTON, January os-The Demo
cratic Senators held a caucus immediatel,
after the adjsurnment Of the Senate to-day
for the purpose Of deciding upon the policy
to be adopted in reference to Senator Sher.
mans resolution calling for an investiga.
ton Of the alleged outrages at elections IN
Virginia and Mississippi, and also for The
purpose OF considering the selection ol
Democratic members Of the new Senate
committees. - ~. .y
The session, which lasted about three
hours, was mainly devoted to the fest OF
these subjects. - s = -, So
Aftera full and general expression ol
opinion It was decided that party, action
should be governed : by circumstances
when the Sherman resolution should come
up for consideration. That resolution
merely alleged lat outrages had been com.
mltted and voters intimida.ed by crir,.
inal violence at elections in two
q the Southern States. II the Republican
Senators In their remarks upon the resolu.
ton should treat the allegations as ascer.
tanned and proved facts, should refer to
specified acts Of violence and intimidation,
and should attempt to charge the Demo.
cratic party with the responsibility for
such acts, it would, in the opinion Of the
caucus, be proper and e1pedient for Dem.
ocratic Senators to accept the issue and en-.
ter actively into debate, shaping their
course in accordance with the DRIFT Of dis.
cussion. This, it was conceded, would
probably lead to a heated political contro.
versy. II, however, the Republican Soma.
tors should not force this issue, If they
should confine themselves to gen.
erai allegations Of local disorder and
violence and not assert that the Democratic
party fostered and encouraged the spirit
which gave rise to such disturbance, it was
decided 10 let the Republicans have the
debate mainly to themselves.

At the last reception at the White
House among those present was a
beautiful young married lady, whose
display of magnificent shoulders and
bust left little to be desired. In the
vey heart of her corsag rested q
spleeded Jacqueminot rose. During
the azening the President sought her
side and engaged for few minutes
in an animated conversation. At its
close she looked at the handsome
Marecha, Neil in the Presidents lap
pei, touching it with her fan. 1 do
not know vhat was said, of course,
but the Presidents eyes sought the
J.cqueminot in the corsage and at
once the lady took it from its beauti-
full resting place while the President
removed his flower from his coat.
Then there was an exchange. The
fair one sliped the Msrechal Neil in
to the vacant place With . pretty
blush and the President touched her
rose to his lips before placing 1t In
his lapel. And all the observers
smiled. Boston Globe.

SEE saw up and down we go.
Gold has been put at premium, be
cause it has been discovered that the
amount of silver is in quantity out
Of all proportion to gold, and
that makes it the cheaper metal, and
hence the premium. Certain men
are advocating q standard money
coin, and that gold slone should be
the standard metal for coin money.
Could the metals as to quantity be
made to change places, and gold be-
come more plentiful, then silver would
rise to premium. So, see saw up and
