WASIIINGTOX LETTER. mmmmmmmm From oar Regular Correspondent. Washinqtox, Dec. 23, 1887. So much opposition has developed against Mr. Lamar, that tbe aenate has deferred final consideration of his nomination until after the holi days, when the cabinet nominations will be taken up in their order Lamar, Vilas and Dickinson. It is understood that the senate's action has grcatljr annoyed the president, who had hoped to begin the new year with a recoiiHtructed cabinet. Mr. Lamar is disappointed, not to say humiliated, at the delay, for he had flattered himself that his former connection with the senate would insure his confirmation in a reason able length of time. The republican senators have on their political war paint, and it is their purpose to overhaul (he Southern statesman's record in politics, especially his recent eulogy of Calhoun and his peculiar views of the constitution, and the amendments that resulted from the civil war. Mr. Don M. Dickinson, tho pros pective postmaster general, is upending a few days in tho capital very quietly. Already large number of letters for him reach tho post .t;uul xeivh.
