THK TV.4 A' OS BAXHSJSM WJI I HEuix r iR'.Y j yd >x<;. t'nder the above caption the N. Y. Herald says that the approaching extra session of Congress, of which there is now little or no quest: .n, is the subject of fresh tlisrossion here. It exc.te* widespread speculation as to its charac ter, the general impression being that will be attemle 1 w:;h an; lively po litical --ontest, which will throw tire ap propriation bills in the shade, arid pre cipitate the fight with the Administra tion which the Republican barotis haw been threatening to nuke. In ealli: _ the extra session so - n, i. -tead of d - terriug it until tli# next fi.-cal year has begun,oraav until August or September the President i- likened to the Swi * peasant in the gorge of th- Alio- who in sisted on whistling, and thereby brought down upon himself the dreaded avalan che. The wildest predictions are matfe its to the course the anti-Administration Republicans will take. It is even said that they will go so far as to endorse a t\ -ointion questioning the President's title, and that they will give what help they can to facilitate proceedings undvr a writ of quo warranto, should Mr. Til uen choose to revive and try the issue in that shape. Report has it that an other conspicuous and influential Sena tor has thrown down the gauntlet to the President, and will range himself with senator Blaine in the expected battle on the floor of the Senate. On the other hand, Mr. Hayes is assured that for every defection of this kind, on account of his policy toward the South, he gains five adherents ftoiu amongconservativc l>e:iiocrats. THE TROOPS AT XKW OR I.E AXS RETIRED TO THEIR RARILV K<. Tuesday, 24, uK., . a.- marching day at Xe r Or! • • hc tr pa - well ns for carpet bag Packard. The account is telegraphed a* follows: As the Cathedral clock "truck I_' the detach ment of the Third infantry, under the command of Lieutenant Colonel J. R. Bro. !:e, marched out of the Orlean- Ho tel and passed up Ch.,ti. street to S f . Loni-, and out t-l. Iuis street to the river, where they embarked on a steam boat for the barracks About one hun dred men from other regiments assem bled on the oppisite side of the street, in front of the Or'-tins Flo tel. to see their comrade I'-iro. AA"h-n the infan try band began to j!ay, a few hnndrnl persons gathered on the streets along the line of march, but there was not much demonstration of any kind. On the galleries of the O,leans and 'he St. Louis hotels stood a few of the adherents of Governor Packard, locking at the movement of the troop.- and the people in the streets below. A SOD OF SERBERt'S. Hayes is trying to capture some of Blaine's pickets. He has mollified Mr- Pherson, one of Blaine's henchmen why presided at the Cincinnati Convention, and bought him quite < heaply, inducing him to accept the charge of the Bureau of Engraving an-1 nrin ingof the Treas ury Department. It is an insignificant place, without honors. The patronage, however, is considerable, and the ctar.- ish-Sot will have the opportunity to boss about three hundred girl* employ ed in the Bureau. If he succeeds in popularizing the Bureau, adid ex-Chief Clarke, he will, at least, have made hi* mark in the world, for Clarke turned it into a first class harem, and was him self the patron and patronizing saint. Chamberlain and Packard intend togo into the bine-glass business somewhere up north. As they can't be carpet-bag gers any longer they had better apply for positions as baggage smashers on some railroad. The Bellefonte Republican swallow* Haves' policy like a fellow that's got the quinsy. It takes one big principal—M'Kay— and three other big ruffians to tight Aleck M'Clureofthe Times and then they must go away without licking him. That's just the way M'K y fared in the courts, he says he spent SIO,OOO and then didn't beat him of the Times. There is a great reduction in carpet bags since the bayonets have been wit h • drawn from South Carolina and Louis iana. Bed AVade, of Ohio, grayhaired re publican leader, has written a short but inten ely bitter letter on Hayes, whose virtues he a few months ago lauded so highly. The Lewistown Gazette says penc'a buds in that neighborhood have in great part been frozen. Germany, Austria, France, and Eng land, are preparing for war, so that if any thing turns up in the wai just non opening between Russia and Turkey for them to put a hand in. f y may he in readiness.

The five Hem - I crats are Harnum of Connecticut, Den nis of Maryh.nd, Gordon of Georgia, MrCreery o: Kentucky and Merrimonof North Carolina. All five are fromStati - steadfastly Democratic, each State hav ing a olid IVinn in the Senate, and all five State* sending only three Republican members to the last House.

It would not be a surprise to well-posted polirj. • ians here who have studied the several >tates, in view of this question, if tin next Senate would stand 43 Democrat* to -53 Republicans.

Tilden, New York—My DEAR SIR: On this day w hen yon ought to have been President of the l'nitcd States, 1 seize the opportunity to hour my testimony t<. the calm and dignified manner in winch you have passed through this great trial, it is many years since 1 ceased to lie a party man. hence I have endeavored to judge of public affair* and men rather by their merit than r>y the name they take. It is a source of gratification to me to think that I made the right choice in the late election. I could never have been reconciled to the elevation by the smallest aid of mine of a person however rap—labia in private life wbo moat lbs ever carry upon hi* brow the stamp of fraud first triumphant in American his tory. No subsequent action however meritorious can wash awav letters of that record. Very respectfully yours, CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS.
