The jti'Ure being otherwise engaged placed the letter in the hands of Win. Jl. Price, Esq., who ocrupied the same rooms with the judge, iir. Price at once went to work, and after almost unlimited searching and in quiry, (fund that James D.

The aituatiou in the Senate is a decidedly interesting one. The repub lican margin is ms uncomfortably dose, ' there being a majority of only two. counting , Eiddleberarr. But he ia absolutely unrelia ble, voting with the Democrats as often as with the Republicans, and voting aii by , himself more frequently still. When lie . goes with the Democracy the Seoat ia, of j course, a tie. T'.e possible Senate cban?es in the Fifty- firsi Cungressare not numerous, Barbuor, a Dem jcrat, succeeds Riddlebergcr. tieing the r Seoa'.e, in case no other gains or losses oc- i cur. I:i that event the control of tde Itenate will dcoend upon wbichever party e!ects th next Vice Presideat. Tlie probjibilities. hosrever. verr mmnr &vor the election of a Republican William Walter I'heips. from the Present outlook iu place of McPlierson, if the present large Repuhlioui majority in the Xew Jersey Lefislature can be taken as aa indication of what tbe complexion of tte next Legislature is likely to be. There is no probability of the R"puoiican gaining a Senator elsewhere titan in New Jersey with in tbe next two years. On the other hand there is a poibi!ity that the Democrats wiil gain Senators in Oregon and Rhode Island, in place of Dulph and Chance. However. .the one Republican prJhility is worth in j finitely more than the two Democratic pos I sibiiities. As to the control of the House, notinng definitely can be said. The probabilities. j nowever. are very sironjny in lavor w a r.c- publican majority at tlie lower end of the tapitoL A gain of ouly six er eilil votes over the present Congress would place tiie j Republicans in the ascendency ; and it :s ( di ttii nit to see where this gate, and even la larger one. will come from. The new re bellion in the South that from Cleveland j free tnule policy will alone more tlian fnr j nish the changes desired, j The junkir Pennsylvania Senator, bavins j succeeded some days a-o in getting throtiirl: ! the Senate bis bill increasing tlie pension I for soldiers w! are totally blind f ln'm li ' P"- montl'- " J" equally suereseftil in passing bis biil mere a- . ing from foO to $72 per month tbe pension for total helplessness. Both bills were taken i up and passed out of order, and it is need less to say that Senator Q lay is receiving a -giod many orapiiments for tlie manner in which he handled the two measures. Both' bilU are reasonably certain to pa s tbe Hone , as both of them have tfie approval of the i Commissioner of Pensions. , Washington is undoubtedly the Mecca for ! cranks. A western clergyman named Schaitz- ler has rerently addressed a communication , to a large proportion of our Senators relative to the next presidency, front which I am f able to give the following exuact : "la opening the eamjign for ISs to promote peace and good will towards men and gen- I era! gool feeling, arul to secure good civil and religions government on (Vxiiiel Tem j perance prijciples, let us nominate fr Presi j dent His Excellency, Grover Clerelar.d front New York the beloved President and nis Excellency D- a Cameron, from Peniisylra nia the beloved Senator ; or. srill hetter, let the Princes of my people, the IT.

Congressman Scull lias presented a good many petitions asking fir an increase of com pensation r founh-rias postmasters. There is a good deal of talk here in favor of Senator Cooper r Ciiairman of the next National Commit' ce. Tbe talk anions Pennsylvanians here i that JuL Mitciiell. of Philailelphia, is in the lead for the Supreme Judgeship nom ination. i State Senator IM.amater. of Crawford ; county, who has just been bare, is mention- 1 ed as a candidate for Congress against Wra. L. sXHt, of Erie. Charles Emery Smith, of the Philadelphia Ves, wiil probably be one of the dclesates at -large to the Chicago Couvenlion. Senator Cameron has not male a speech thus far, but for quiet work afhonir hi fel low Senators bis intluenee is onsurass. The Senate is so far ahead of the Houe in ieirislaiioa that il invariably aljoorns over from Tharsliy to Monday. It only rvjuires a day s a::eniUnre upr.n the pruceeilings of the House to discover that Randall has h:s war-paiut on. He will make it lively for the Erie county kites man before the session dose. The latter mav be j very influential at the White House, but at the other end of tlie avenue tlie Democratic ; party refu.se to f iluw his leadership. !
