Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.
Washington, February 2

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.
Washington, February 2
The Kentucky situation was the all
absorbing topic at the Cabinet meeting
today. The President read the mes =
sage he had received yesterday from
Mr.. Taylor asking for aid 10 his efforts
to hold the gubernstorial chair. The
fact that Taylor asked for the presence
OF federal troops was emphasized
Other communications that the Pres
dent and the members of his Cabinet
have received we're also read. Will
the members all agreed that Mr.. Tay.
lor should be seated on the face of the
that now seems. certain to succeed il il
defiance OF law and order, they decided
that it was not case for presidential
interference. The State, and the : .art
alone, should be allowed to work out
her own salvation. The President was
advised to inform Mr.. Taylor OF tht
Cabinets sentiment. As q result 9
message to Frankfort was dictated. The
President, it is understood, sympathiz d
with Mr.. Taylor upon the unfortunate
events that have marred the peace OF
his State but regrets that he is unable
TO comply with his request for aid AS
yet, he tells Mr.. Taylor, nothing has
occurred to justify any action on the
part of the federal authorities. After
the cabinet adjourned, one of the 10 u =
bers gave out the following statement :
"Ihe President has decided that no
case has yet arisen to justify the inter
vention OF the national government iD
Kentucky, and has so informed the
Governor of the State" The message
to Taylor was to the "Governor" OF
Kentucky, fact that is taken as sig
niicant of the side the administration
supports. The telegram to Taylor, de
nying federal interference, will be given
out for publication at Frankfort.
The House committee on elections
No. has decided the contest of Judge
Walter Evsns versus Oscar Turner
from the Louisville, KY. district. The
testimony in favor OF the democratic
contestee was so plain that the CON-
mittee had to decide that Evans, the
republican contestant, was not elected
and that the democratic contestee is
entitled to his seat. The allegations
on benalf of the contestant embodied
charges of fraudulent negro votes.

THE republican jngoes and expan-
sionists of the North, like their predt .
cessors in the war between the states,
are calling all those who oppose any OF
their imperialistic schemes, "Traitors'"
As vet the only people they have 20
designated are those of their own Sec
ton. but it is probably that Southern
men soon will be. Those engaged 10
cheating and robbing the government
are very prone to speak of honest men,
who have the interests of the country
ct heart, as traitors; but the truth about
them ALWAYS comes out at last.
