1 Mxily lie incrt WASHINGTON. Prom our regular aorreipondent. Washington, Dec. 34th, 18SS. Before leaving to spend Christmas at his Georgia home, Senator Colquitt said that if Harrison was looklne for a respec table Southern republican for his Cabinet he could not do better than to seieti 1 1 Ruf.lt nf Atlanta. Th rm.hliran Senators, true to the tra- am, thi.ir nartv. clayed a confidence game in order to get a date set for the final vote on the Senate tariff bill. They held a caucus and decided against taking a rhrl.t.. recess. Ther then appointed a committee to confer with the democrats, Intruded that committee to offer to vote for the recess provided the democrats would agree to set a day for the final vote th tariff bill. The democratic oena- not H.drincr to retard other necessary willsHnn in the hopeless effort of trying to prevent the passage of the tariff bill, agreed to take the final vote on that meas ure January 21st. Then the republicans voted for a recess from last Friday to v ed nesday, January 2nd. Had the democrats refused, the Senate would have been only nominally In session during the Holidays, as no power on earth could have held a auorum of the Senate here during tne TTolidavs. However, the action of the democratic Senators is generally commend ed here, because everybody Is heartily sick and tired of tariff talk, and the republicans of the Senate were fully determined to nass the bill before taking up anything else, therefore the sooner it is over the bet ter. That large portion of the republican par tv known as the "workers" and the "boys are terribly alarmed at the indications which now point to another reign of the "e-oodv-coodv" element in the White House. Rutherford B. Hayes has been nratrn-eil out of the obscurity Into which he o n - had naturally gone.and will, it is said, be a power with Harrison. Hayes, it is well known, hates Blaine with an intensity as great as it Is possible for his small brain to hold, and has never forgiven him for al luding to him during his occupancy of the White House as "that man Hayes ;" there fore, it is not at all surprising that Hayes should be workine actively against Blaine. Piatt, of New York, is also obnoxious to Hayes. In fact about nine-tenths of the republican party are In a fair way to get left out In the cold, and a scare of the big cest sort has been developed among them by the news from Indianapolis. Whether there It any real cause for this scare among the working republicans I am not in a po rtion to sav.but I will say that if Harrison attempts to make up his cabinet, leaving such men as Blaine and Piatt out, he win deliberately walk Into the worst hornets nest he ever saw, and will make himself more unpopular with his party, if such a thine be possible, than Hayes was when he was President. This Idea of a candidate being better than the rank and file of his nartv Is all "ooDDveock." and has resulted in nothing but failure for every President that has ever attemoted to follow It. Let Harrison take warning. Ex-Senator Mahone still flits throueh the corridors of the Capitol, almost dailv. but he is generally looked upon as a "dead cock In the pit. Tohn Sherman made a speech to a negro club the other night, advising them to ac quire education and property in order to obtain the respect of the world. John eot his education while young.and the most of his property while Secretary of the Treat urv. so that row he is both educated and rich, and yet. there are many people who cannot respect John Sherman. I understand that negotiations hare al ready been closed for the purchase of the Washinirton Past bv James G. Blaine, with a proviso that they are off If he goes Into the cabinet. In other words, If Harrison leaves him out Blaine nroncses to make the White House a very warm place for somebody. 'Little Billy" Chandler has been present ing more petitions to the Senate from al leged citizens of South Carolina, setting forth the fact that the petitioners were at the last election denied the right to vote. A curious thing about three of these petitions was that all 01 tne signatures were in tne same handwriting. Perhaps "Little Billy" has tstabllsded a petition factory of his ' President Norvin Green, of the Western Union Telegraph Company, is reported to have discovered a remedy for rheumatism. That coquettish maiden, Mme. Rumor, says that he wears a peice of copper in his shoe under one heel and a piece of zinc under the other. Thus havingthe twopolesofabattery a gentle current of electricity is constantly playing through the genial President's anatomy and neutralizing the effects of the agonizing rheumatic pains. It is said that the copper and zinc do their perfect work so eently that Mr. Green experiences no annoyance; in fact, he is not aware that he is carrying an infant battery around with him. s.i 1 1" t Cost.

It may be scientifically impossible to control a vehicle in the air, but a good many ot tne mod em devices have violated the rules laid down by the learned rut-workers, and they have gone right along, just the same. It is claimed mat without wind there is perfect control, and tha. in rough weather the conditions are not materi. ally different from those of navigation on the water.

What will be done with the Senate tariff bill when it reaches the House ? Is a ques tion that is exciting considerable discussion just now, but owing to the absence of all the leaders the talk Is only conjecture. The republicans will, It is said, attempt to get in Immediate vote upon it by moving that the House concur. The democrats, It Is generally thought, will antagonize this with a motion to non. concur, and send to a conference. If the bill gets Into the hands of a conference committee that will be the last of It. OVERCOATS, Fine Assortment, Pea Jackets-Chinchilla.
