MR.. FRYE's POSITION.
Mr.. Frye, rep, cf Maine said that if

allowed to administer the election laws,
but that If the states could not be de-
pended upon the federal election laws
should be retained MIR. Frye did not be-
lieve any such dependence could be
placed upon the states. MIR. Frye re-
ferred to the provisions in the constitu-
tlon of Mississippi, that voters must be
able TO read the constitution OF the state,
or to interpret its meaning He was told
by Mr.. Gray, dem, of Delaware, that
that was no worse than the provision in
the constitution of Massachusetts.

Washington, Feb. 5.-The Senate ju-

on the case, and more letters, both
for and against Peckham, were read.
No attempt was made, however, to test
the sense of the committee, and finding it
impossible to agree on vote to-day, the
postponement was inevitable 1t is under
stood that one southern member of the

Peckham, and that he was the cause Of

Rio de Janeiro, Feb. 5, a. m.-Unless
present indications turn out incorrect, the
fate of President Piexoto and Admiral
de CANA and his followers will be de-
cided to-day. During Saturday night and
yesterday, the insurgents steamed their
ships into position preparatory to making
an attack on the government positions at
Nictheroy especially. 1t is UNDER
stood that this is to be final
and desperate effort upon the part of in
surgeuts, and that on its success every
thing depends so far as the revolutian is
concerned. 1t is expected that early
this morning, the insurgent commander
will have succeeded in landing a force on
the shore, which, covered by the fire of
the rebel vessels, will advance upon the
government positions, and a final battle is
then expected to be fought.
The foreign warships are closely watch
ing operations and there has been no
further interference of any sort up to the
time this dispatch is filled. The general
opinion ashore seems to be that the in
surgents wiz be defeated and that the
collapse of the rebellion, in this part of
the country at least, will Immediately

At the time this was published IL
forciblY struck people who knew how

RIsON is, as being very remarkable
utterance for him TO make. Now Mr..
HARRISON comes forward and nails the
lie direct. He says:
II have neither said what am quoted as
saving as 70 the use Of the United States

the President has transcribed his power.
On the other hand, / believe that there is
no spot in the United States where the
United States troops may not so under
such orders without asking any bOdy'S con-
sent. and that the enforcement of the laws
of the United States is the sworn duty Of
the President, and the army an important
instrument to use in the enforcement Of
these laws where they are violently resist

The huClligenccr delightedly points out
that the prediction was not verified then
as fully as expected and that the situa-
ton has not improved, though il knows
this has been due TO Republican 6lious-

more men in Wheeling. 1t doubtless
