During the count Of .the electoral
vote, a,nd. after it became evident
that the Joint commisgionglad fully
determined to count Hayes in, re
gardless of right and justice, the
Democratic majority in the House
had it. in their power to prevent the
completion of the fraud. "Dila
tor3r motious" and. ”Filibustering"
- would have protractid the count be
yond the 4th of 'Mara, and resulted
in the ordering of a new electig.
the election by the House,of Suet
J. Tilden as -President, which they
had the constitutional right to do.
At this point nearly all the south
ern Democrats lead.' bly Gordon and
Hill of Ga.', Lamar of Miss., and
John Young Brown. of Ky., took
strongarounds against delay, and
steadfastly t favored the completion ;
of the count by the commission: It
now transpires that these gentlemen
had assurances from Hayes' friends
and advi6ets, that. the troops should
be withdrawn from : the "capitals of
Louisiana and. South 'Carolina.
We find in the N. "ir: 'World the fol
lowing account of a conference held
at Wormley's . Hotel, Wash
ington, which the friends of Mr.
Hayes solicited: with,. Mr. Ellis who
was acting for Gov. Nieholls. "Who
appeared as the representatives Uwe
of the President-elect '? All were
from. Ohio. They were Matthews,
Sherman, Garfield arid Dennison.—
Sherman—the Republican Senator
from Ohio, a visiting statesman •to
4 Louisiaua,. the most offensive organ
in the Senate of the New Orleans
Returning Board. Garlield-,-a Re
publican member of thediouse from
Ohio and (worse than all 'for him)
a member of 'the Electoral Court.—
Surely any man in his senses must
say these four ought to be taken
as speaking the truth when they
predicted what Mr. _,Hayes would
do. Mr. Ellis appears 'to have un
derstood with. whom he was negoti
ating,-for,turning to Sherman he
said
"Senator, you, are 'well 'known to he very
eclose to Governor Hayes. It is said that you
are to be in his Cabinet. I ulna he frank with
you .and say that• our peoolc, have considered
you their bete noire, and I desire to hear trona
you upon this question."
Senator Sheritaa:then arose and
said
. "1 have listened with deat care to the state
ments which have been made and the line of
policy set torlh by Judge Matthews, and 1 can
only say. that I approve and indorse what he
has Said." • .
Mr. Matthews began the interview
by insisting that he was "thorough
ly acquainted" with the vieWs of Mr:
Hayes on the southern question.—
Wh.ereupon - Mr. Ellis, unable to
throw himself blindly into the arms
of a man • who had. shoWn himself
willing to take the PreSidenc - y from
the New Orleans Returning Board
and then deny Packard to be Gov
ernor, put the immorality of the
situation clearly to Matthews in this
fashion :
• "The same men who voted for Hayes had
voted tor Packard, and the same who had voted
for IN icholls bad voted for Tilden,and the same
Returning Board that assumed to give the
election to Hayes had also ' declared Packard
elected ; and in that view the Southern Demo
crats were at a loss to see how Governor Hayes
could consistently ignore Packard's claim and
sustain that of Nicholls."
Nevertheless, Mr. Matthews re
plied that the troops would certain
ly be withdrawn, if Nicholls would
pledge himself to execute. the laws
with mercy, impartiality a'nd justice.
All the -Ohio men assented and
then the House completed the connt,
all these Ohio politiCians having
thus confessed the Returning Board
frauds as to - the "State" officers I
Now what defense do the organs
make That Mr. Hayes gave no
general authority to Mr. Matthews
to say what he did ? No ! That
the southern Democrats did not ac
cept what M. Matthews said as true
and act' upon it ? No ! That the
frauds weri?, act perpetrated ? .!
What then:? Simply that there is
no evidenCe that. Mr. Hayes gave 'to
Mr. Matthews and Mr. Foster a
"special" power, in advance, to sign
the particular writing which, they.
did sign ! 'What would. this 'sort of
thing be called in private - life ?" -
The President has at last fo . rmed and
appointed his commission to visit Louisi ,
ana. They are as follows - Judge. Charles
B. Lawrence, of Illinois ; ex , Governor J.
C. Brown, of Tennessee:,, Gen. Joseph
R. Hawley, of Connecticai ; 'Gen. John
M. Harlan, of Kentucky', - and Wayne
McVeigh, of Pennsylvania. --
FRAUD CONFESSED.
B OS'S T WEED.
William M. Tweed has agreed to make
restitution as far as possible to the city,
and will shortly be relleased•from prison.
Woodward and Ingersoll have furnished
evidence, which .T seed has largely con
firmed by documentary. 'proof in the
shape of canceled checks, against scores
of others in all parts .of the State; anal
suits to recover are to be instituted against
all of these persons, some of whom now
hold . rhigh offices of honor and trust.
Among those against- whom they testify,
in strongest= terms are Peter B. Sweeny,
who has agreed to restore what money
he can, and A. Oakey. Hall, who has
probably sailed fGe Europe to avoidl,ll: . '
consequences of`.re-arrest= and impriaolf
ment.. 'Mr. Hall's 'friends, however, sill,
believe that no.
s ow E can be madP : out
against hitn;,and Wert that Woodward,
Ingersoll:and' Tieed, are inspired by
,
_desire to' implicate 'others as deeply as
pa§sibte.olllleii own disgrace and guilt.

other foundation for the report than
,the
appearance in. Washington of.a lawyer
from New York- who; is a friend
.Of Mr.
Tilden: - -Such a trifling incident as this
Was sufficient. to awaken the guilty' fears
of the men .who have. stolen the office of
President to which kr. Tilden Was elect
ed by, a :majority of a quarter of a mil
lion of votes' and by a, majority of not len
than fifteen in the-
To' foreigners lit is inexplicable that
the electoral Commission utterly refused
to examine into the facts:bearing an -the
;elections -in ..disputed
. .States. Says•the
London- Standard Review : • ‘-`l€ the

ed- to the apparent intentions . of congrew

First Assistant Post-Master-General
Tyner is acting 'as Postmaster General;
and has been acting as such almost con
stantly since Judge. 'Key's .appointment.
Judge Key's time has been, and still is,
fully occupied in aiding to solve the
southern question_and in the transaction
of other., important', public business.--
Nearly fifteen thousand apnlications for
office have been-received by Postifiaster-
General Key duringlis brief incumbency
and filed away for possible future refer
ence.
While, the argunienta , addressed by
Governor Hampton - to the fraudulent
President were of great weight, nothing
had so strong a tendOcy to l convince him
of the necessity of Withdiawing the
troops from the Ocuth Carolina State
House as the fact that there is a Demo
cratic majority in the next congress.—
This is the political . argument that will
settle the dispute in . Louisiana without
the necessity of any resort to compromise.
New York cityls still excited over the
disappearance of: ex-MayOr A.4-oakey
Hall, who has not been seeri sincepi
day, March IGth. The World, maintains ' '
,that he was• decoyed to' Brooklyn hnd
murdered ; while the 'other papers are of
the opinion that he has fled to Ehrope
through fear of evidence. that may be
given against him by Tweed, Sween6y,
and Others in the
,approaching suits.
Hayes is a very pious patriot. He ask•
ed some of the churches ft° pray for lris
administration, and then invited Bob
Ingersoll, the boasting ii4del, to-dine
with him on Sunday, . that they- might,
make ruerry over the credulity !Of the
poor brethren who . had :wasted their ben;
ediotions upon his •!Southern Policy" - of
deception and impeitUre.
And now Hayes s in trouble, the, peo•
pie demand - the recOgnition of Nicholls
and le cannot safely do it.
