The Washington correspondent of the Telegraph and Messenger gives the following as the make up of the next House of Representatives : He says the next House will, of course, show peat reduction in the Demociatic tua ? joritv in this, but that majority will bn ample for the practical purpose of or- canization. Thus far 290 members of t^ fourty-fifth Congress have been cho sen, of which numoer 148 are Demo crats anti 142 Radicals, showing Democratic majority of 6. New Hampshire has not yet elected her rep resentative in that Cot gress, will do so ; n March. Her prisent delegation stands two Democrats and one Radical bat this proportion will most probably be reversed in the fourty-fifth Congress, making a probable total ofl49 Demo crats, and 144 Radicals, If the Radi cals carry all the districts the count will stand 14S Democrats and 145 Rad icals and leave the Democrats still with a majority of three, whieh will be quite sufficient to secure the organization. W hen that is secured, it will be easy to increase the majority by throwing out two Louisiana Radicals who wer> counted in by the Returning Board in face of 0,000 Democratic majority in one and 1,000 in another district, and the two from Florida who were also Hjounted j n over the popular verdict. Bihere are also two or three more ol lie faithful who will have to go, so ■hat it is altogether safe to estimate the inal Democratic majority at not less ian twelve or fifteen, which i3 ample Birail practical purposes. Apropos of e next House it seems pretty general- conceded that Mr. Randall will be s own successor in the Speaker's chair lad also that the rest of the present "fleers of the House will be rechosen.

Mott, of that place a3 one of the four Trustees of the Lunatic Asylum. Colonel Mott, is a leading Radical of the State. He is Markham’s right bowetj n,? was a dele gate to the Convention that nominated Hayes and Wheeler. He voted fo: them. He has voted for Grant every time he was a candidate; and boldiysus- taids him in all his bajunet proceedings. He is a full-fledged Radical, and has never raised his voice against the acts doings of the military despot now crush ing the South. Yet Governor Smith se lects this man from 200,000 Georgians for position of honor and truit. As Georgian, as a Democrat we protest. And yet the Governor of a Democratic State, warms a political viper iuto life, and calmly makes arrangements to be h-cted United States Senator! Cheek.” The above we find accredited to the Ailanta Constitution, and we re-produce for the purpose of rebuking the nar row-minded, bigoted spirit that it displays. The office of Trustee of the Asylum is uot a political one, and no man with a himble full of brains would desire to see politician appointed to it. I inieg iu the nature of committee ap- oiuted by a Legislative body, and should exact justice to the people, be com •cd of men from both parties. Gov ernor Smith iu so constituting the beard has simply done his duty, and should be applauded by the people and the press. and support no political principles we are unwilling, if need be, to defend at the point of the sword. However, we hardly think this will be necessary at present; neither have we any such de sire. War is always terrible, under any circumstances, but it is preferable to an indefinite crushing, grinding usurp ation, such as has cursed the Southern section of this Union for the last decade.

And there have been many conflicting rumors concerning the result of the late strug gle. One thing, however, has been settled beyond the shadow of a doubt, and that 1 is the triumphant election of Tilden and Hendricks. The Democratic candidates are elected by a popular majority of more than 309,009, besides enough electoral votes to elect them. Under such circum stances, then, the question naturally arises, “ what is the trouble ?” Why is it that this matter is not definitely settled, and the country relieved of a suspense prejudicial to its best interests ? Some people imagine that was a very close elec tion. The popular verdict does not seem to favor such a theory. If there is any thing dose about tne iats election, it is m the electoral vote and that was made so by Radical fraud anti rascality. One grand rehson for this suspense is because the Radical leaders are now engaged in the effort to throw out a sufficient num ber of electoral votes at the South to de that Tilden and elect Hayes. Such a feat will require sometime, and a certain imonnt of engineering and hence thif present suspense. It was admitted some -ine ago that the States of South Caro lina, Florida and Louisiana, were to de cide the election. Those States are now pretty generally conceded to have gone Democratic; hence, as a mutter of course, the Democratic candidates are elected. But will they be seated ? That is the question. We shall see. We think it is now about time for the people speak out in meeting.” Ttia' mere is an attempt now being made to cheat the people out of their choice, we enter- ain not the shadow of a doubt;-ami the mau who thinks differently has more faith in the honesty of the Radical leaders than have. Such a demonstration, how ever, will be morally certain to fail. The rent Democratic party is bound to seat its candidates fairly and legally elected and no earthly power can prevent it. It is a significant fact that the theatre of di-mute is confined to those States South which have been cursed with 'Radical ^pet-bag rule ever since the close of the war, namely, South Carolina, Flori da ahx Louisiana. The reason of this is obvious. The Radical leaders imagine that those-States can be scared into terms without mucihrouble, while the remainder itie States Sooth, as well as North, they imagine, will mini, their own busines: This seems to be a v*- rM “r ””"T n ,~ ment, and v- - ‘ nore fata! ml " take could hardly be made. With such thieving scalawags as Kel logg, of Louisiana, Stearnes, of Florida, and Chamberlain, of South Carolina, to do the engineering, a large amount of dirty work may be expected, but that will be about all. They will be quite likely to do themselves more harm, in the end, than anybody else. If, however, the Radical leaders felt certain they had the power to forcibly abrogate and ignore tha verdict of the people, they would not hesitate a mo ment in making the attempt. But a verdict of more than 300,000 had better be let alone. We may be thought un charitable, but it is our honest convic tion that if the Radical leaders were certain they could seat Hayes by in augurating war, the sword would be unsheathed in thirty d lys. The Radi cal leaders are now just trying the people, in order to ascertain whether or not the latter will permit .their ver dict set aside; and no sooner would they discover a willingness on the part of the people to surrender than they would peremptorily make the demand. But, the people will not surrender. Tilden is elected,. and must he seated— peaceably' if possible; forcibly, if ncccssarg.
