04 out of 70 votes. Tho number pro
sent was tiiat of a legal quorum. A
formal demand by Wade Hampton for
the possession of tho State House, the
Great Seal and public records, has been
refused by Chamberlain.
Gen. HIIm Informs General Sher
man that after his last council with Sit
tiiiK Bull ho "had a regular stand-up
Unlit," In wliloli tho Indians were de
feated and scattered over tho Yellow,
htune in tha direction of Fort Peck.
Many of tho Indians took refuge In tho
fort, and are now under charge of Gen.

war Is over "for at least some years to
come," and that all tho hostile Indians
will surrender before the end of the
wii.ter.
A special correspondent of tho
Now York Tribune gives a report of a

nud a friend on the political situation.
Tho President expressed gratification
ut t:iu conservative spirit shown by
many of tho Southern leaders. Ho did
not believe there would be civil strife,
but in case of an emergency "should
not hesltato to execute his constitution,
nl authority." Ho would recognize as
liU successor whoever was formally de
clared elected by the President of tho
Senate, and see that that person Is
placed In possession of the Government,

-The position of of Senator Conk
lltig with reference to the Presidential
problem, It Is learned on gcod author
ity, says the Evening Telegram, Is
bimply this : Mr. Conkling goes no fur
ther than to say that ho has not yet
made up his mind who is elected PreeU
dent. lie Is waiting for more light be
fore making up Ills mind. This condi
tion of doubt, however, separates him
completely from Morton and the ma
jority of the Kepubllcan Senators, who
hold that to doubt the election of
Hayes Is equivalent to admitting tho
election of Tllclen. e
The Pail Mall (London) Gazette
of November, referring to the Presiden
tial Imbroglio, remarks : " The politi
cal crisis still continues In the United
bttttes, and, aa the dangers of the situ -utlon
are aggravated the longer the de
cision is delayed, tho stock markets
slmw for the first time in a long period
n nervous feeling with respect to Am
erican securities. It Is not that the
policy of the Democratic party Is con-
bidered threatening to tho credit of the
Union, but that the means now being
adopted to secure a majority for Mr.
Hay'os In the contested States of tho
South are justly regarded as perilous to
thu national pence."
Political affairs at Washington and
throughout tho couutry, so far as re
lates to the Presidential election, re
maius unchanged. Certificates from
thu electors of many of the States liavo
been received by Mr. Ferry, President
of the Senate, but no decision can bo
msde, nor will the certificates bo open
ed until the day appointed for the two
Houses to meet for the purpose, Febu
a y 14, 1877. In the meantime it is tho
duty of eyery patriotic citizen to exert
his influence to allay public excitement
and mere partlzan feeling, and to en
deavor to obtain an issuo from the pro
sou t difficulties that shall receive the
approbation of the people, and secure
tno.peace and prosperity of tho country.
vntlvo feeling existed among many of
the Southern leaders and that he thought
the moral lulluenco of tho loyal element
ot tho Union would overawe any at
tempt to frustrate tho carrying out of
tho notion of Congresn under tho cons
titution and laws In tho election of a
President."
Washington Is experiencing a tasto
of real wintry weather. Yesterday
was stinging cold aud to-day wo nro
nnviug a smart stiowi-torm. If It should
continue to miow at this rate all night
wo shall hear the " merrv. infcrrv

Washington Letter.
Trpm our Npeclal Correspondent.
Washington, I). C, Dec. 19th. 1978,
Bin, The Capitol has been tho sceno
of lively times for n week past. Gene
ral Impoitant questions liavo been thor
oughly discussed, and many of the lead
ing Congressmen nave participated
therein. Karly in tno ween tlio now oiu
and niuch-talked-over subject of tho
printing of tho President's special uiu.s
sacc and Its nccompanyina documents,
which were letters and reports It inn
Senator Sherman and some other gen
tlemen relative to the election In Louis
iana, was taken up, with the evident
purpose of making an end of It. This
was at last accomplished tiy means ot a
compromise tho memorial of Messrs.
bte.venson, Ilogy and McDonald, em
bracing a report ot the Democratic
committee who also witnessed the elec
toral count in Louisiana, being Includ
ed with the abovementioned documents,
and 10,850 copies wore ordered printed
therefore the public must, perforce,
have both sides, If either, of this story.
In the course of tuts discussion tno
Democrats admitted tho existence of
fraud and Intimidation lu Louisiana
during the election, but stated that it
was entirely owing to the luelliclency
of Mr. Kellogg, Governor of that State.
The Republicans hail n jubilate over
this admission, but could make no de
nial to Mr. Thurmau's statement that
Democrats were the first to denounce
and punish ku-klux outrages.
The joint rules question has also been
tho innocent cause ot much wrnugliug
for the past few days, Speaker Randall
ruling that they aro stilt In force, a
gainst the Qrm decision of thu Senate
that they are inoperative.
Alexander H. Stephens has appeared
In the House two or throe times within
the past week, but was unable to re
main longer than to Introduce a bill
aud speak a few words concerlng It the
principal one ho has brought forward
being concerning tho metric system of
coinage for the gold dollar. Mr. Ste
phens Is much emaciated and very
weak, so much so that ho has to bo
taken to and from his seat In ths House
In the aims of a servant and to his ho
tel in an invalid oliftlr.
Humors ot every good and bad de
scription aro afloat hero concerning the
reports of the Investigating Committees
In Louisiana, South Carolina aud Flori
da, the most Important of which Is
from tho latter State nnd Is of sulUcIent
Interest, if true, to awakou the atten
tion of every loyal citizen. It amounts
to an announcement that 72 names
have been found upon the poll-list of
Leon county to which no persons over
seen or heard ot answer. It is stated
that thelrnames were used to cover a
corresponding number ot fraudulent
votes, tickets of a dlmiuutive size,
which wero smuggled Into tho ballot
box by being concealed In the folds ot
tho Tegular tickets, This certainly
promises an exposure of some kind,
though It remains to bo seen ot what
character,
Tho Senate was not In session on
Saturday, and thu Hoirse, after a khort
time spent upon Friday's unfinished
business, whioh wus tho consideration
of the Post-olUcD Appiopriation Bill
niid the Morrlsuu and Oi ton dispatches,
proceeded to the special order ot the
day the formal announcement of tlio
death ot the lato Speaker Kerr. Touch
ing speeches were made; aud resolu
tlons of sorrow and condolence adopt
ed. The Uouso was heavily draped In
mourning and tho occasion was partic
ularly boleuiu.
To-day'i Republican says "Iu a con
versation, yesterday, upon the present
political complications President Grant
said "that uo .official Information had
reached him of any armed body of men
in Indiana, but that the subject hud
been brought to his attention through
