and Gratis, who want.U Ntne meeting Of Congre
ot-~ approaches the talk about the organizatic
Of the House increases. The prevailing in
ase preston, as previously stated in this CO
G respondence, is that all the old officers wi

tor dead. For his place the three most prom
hat nent candidates are Messrs. Tyler, Of vi
I'M. gina; Donaldson, of Tennessee; and Traine
w., of New York. AS the East holds none
IVY these offices now, it is said that the men

eg' become candidate for the place of Sc,
ry, geant-at-Arms.
ill Among the latest Congressional arrival
~ are Senator Berry the new Senator fror
- Arkansas, Attorney General Garland's sue
cessor, and Senator Allison. The prevailin
impression among the republican Senator
10 now in the city is that no faetious or par
,st tisan opposition will be made to the Presi
-. dents nominations, and that only thos
80 appointments which the President himsel
-. will see should not havo been made will b.
lis opposed.
