Wahiiisoton, Jan. 4.—Mr. CONK
LIN** ;»n-*»nted a j**ti:ion of banker#,
merchant# and other b uni new* men of
Sea York city in favor of an amicable
aettlemenl of the presidential contest,
expree«in^ the h q «* that all j>arty con*

congreeM in th.n matter.

iv\: of those hi„" in/ the (petition, and
said they were men Jong snd honora*

for him to add his *v.wa) i his aym
tathy with the aj.ie-.t! of the (•etitioneni
tor patno'ic and lawful >ction v andth*
observance ol the constitution. Obedi
ence to las and the maintenance of
truth was not a |*arly queali
party procedure. Par tie* might con*
tend and -honnl contend over meas
ures *nd men; hut when the
question had hern submitted to the
bai'ot Ira there was one lawful duty,
one lawful proceeding remaining, and
that vra* to tind an honest, true result,
declare it and abide by it. That wan
the duty of the hour. It rested on the
senate; it rented on the bouse; it rested
on the nation, ami rested on every cit
izen of the republic. Party interests,
a- well an patriotism and honor,
prouip’ed in one direction and taught
one ie*H-»n. That lesson is, whoever
sUndaon truth and right shall not fall;
•di ever stands on falsehoialai.d wrong
aha 1 be overthrown.
The petition was referred toa special
committee of seven senators, aj>p duled
to devise means for a projier count of
the electoral vote.
Mr. CONK LI NO pfesented fourteen

Mr. WKIOIIT'H bill, establishing a
court to count the electoral vote, was
discussed and referred toa select com
mittee on counting; the electoral vote.
Luring the debate—
Mr. KERN AN said be could not
agree with some of ike views expressed
by tbs senator from Iowa (Mr. Wright),
and desired to express h's dissent now
The simator from Iowa had argued that
it was tbs right and the duty of the
presiding officer of the senate to count
the vote; that the duty was imposed
up«.n hitu. lie (Mr. Kernan)could not
aglet' to that construction of the con
slitution. He did not think it was the
intention of the framem of the contli-
tution to impose any wuch duty on that
officer. Ti»e two houses of congress
had the right, and has im)iosed upon
tfiem hv the constitution the duty of
counting the vote. Mr. Kernan then
quoted irom the constitution, and said
the duty devolved upon the tw
of congress, repn>senting the states and
the people, to sco that no improner
fraudulent vote was counted. lie dif
not desire to argue this qtieatiou at
length to-day, hut aubmitted that the
two houses of congress were not to sit
dumb like statues and ser wrong go
The practice of counting the vote
bad not lieen in accordance with
any such construction of the
constitution. On every occasion each
bouse had ap)»ointcd tellers to count
the votes, and as he read the preced
entson every occasion when any ques
tion had arisen in regard to counting
and notified that the two houses ha*
separated to decide the matter. It ha
never lieen held that the president of
the cerate Imd the constitutional duty
or right to count a vote. II«- then uu<

ferred to the case ot Mi.^wniri in 1821
in regard to which he said, when it

and without )>aitiulity. This time ev

amlbelief that all these questions would

and laws, ami that the real truth would
prevail.
Mr. SIIKKMAN of Ohio, inquired
if tie r« suit of either house objecting
to tin counting of the vote of a state
would be the exclusion of that vote.
Mr. KKliNAN said he would like to
hear that matter discussed.
Mr. SIIKKMAN radio did not in
tend to express his opinion upon the
questions about to arise, hut
he would vxanvne them calm
ly and dispassionately. He
had no douht that when the two
houses concurred that the vote of a
state was frau lulent it should not la*
counted; hut it the two house* dis
agreed as to the count of a vote it
would Ik* revolutionary if the oh eition
ot either house could exclude that
vote. •
Mr. RtXiY, of Missouri, said that
was the *. H .M joint rule.
Mr. SIIKKMAN sa-.d that the result
of such a rule was worse than that of
any rule in Mexico. He bad hopes,
not yet clouded in the slightest degree,

their committees, would agree upon a

Tl»e eighth of January i# memorable
in our history as the anniversary of the
battle ol New Orleans. That battle
w as the turning point of the last strug
gle between the United States and
England. Its result did much, verv
much, to establish the American peo
ple as a nation in the world, and its
glory is inseparably connected with the
name of Andrew Jackson, a great man,
and one of ojr great presidents, des
tined to a long renown, not onlv as a
military hero and an original and cour
ageous statesman, hut a# a'champion
of the people and their successful de
fender against the encroachment# of a
great moneyed j»ower. The liberties of
the people are now threatened by a
moel formidable conspiracy. A combi
nation of office holders, supported by
the most powerful }>oliticai party known
in our history, are engaged in falnify-
ing the votes cast at a national election,
and taking through fraud and violence,
from a inan whom the people have
elected, the office of president and giv
ing it to another man whom the people
have rejected. This constitutes a more
dangerous attack upon our country and
its democratic institutions than the
attack of Great Britain that was foiled
at New Orleans sixty-twro years ago.
I ait us Itope that the popular protest
which will be uttered on the 8th of
January next will be as efficacious in
driving back the public enemy as were
the deadly rifles of our sharp-shooters
and the martial genius of Jackson at

Mr. Wade Hampton does not

that if Tilden is not, there is no need
of getting up a war, not even a r

that the preaident doubts whether he

new house of representative# in case
there is no presidential election by the

of office on the 4th of March has no
more right to call a special session of
congress on the 4th of March, when he
is functus officio, that he has to call
upon that body to assemble on tbe 4th
ot July following his retirement. It
ha# heretofore been customary for the
outgoing president to simply request
the senate to assemble on the day when

There will be no war. The woman
that hesitates is lost. The republican
confedeiates he.-itate. They will loose.
The qlie?-tion is arithmetical as well
as presidential. If Mr. Morton suc
ceeds in whipping into party traces
every republican senator, Mr. Hayes
will l>e declared president. If nine
republicon senators value conscience
and country higher than party, tbe
will of the people will here tpecteil,and
Mr. Tilden will he peaceably inaugu

N ne republican senators—that is the
jiiestion. There are twenty-nine
democratic members in the senate
the other forty-six were all elected
either as indcj*endent.s or republicans.
11 the republican confederates lose but
nine members, the conservatives will
have a majority of the senate, a major
ity that could immediately displace
Mr. Fern ; a majority against which
the conspiracy could never succeed.
The presidential problem, therefore,
practically resolves itself into the sim
ple question whether these needed nine
senators will be forthcoming. My
answer, based upon close observation,
direct information and personal com
parison with members of the senate, is
that these nine will be found on the
right fride when they are really needed.

In the various towns these various or

the masses, and while differing in name,
it is believed that they are all working
under one general directing mind, and
under oue common ritual. Ti.e im
pression of those who have endeavored
to learn tbe object and aims of the or-
ler or orders is That these secret Irodies
*re com posed of the order of United
Americans, which the Herald so fully
xi*o*ed last spring. 1 was, of course,
unable to I'.nthom the secrets of these
tath-bnnul societies, but from bints
Iropped by mcmlrer* and the investi
gations of i*en*ons whom l have con
ned with, there is little doubt but
they arc military organizations in the
interest of the republican party. That
they have stated drills is a certainty,
but everybody outside of the lodge-
rooms is entirely at sea as to whether
they are armed organizations or merely
political feocieties, who meet for drill
and conference. The membership, it
is noticed, is largely made up or state
ami federal office-holders, young men
w ho have since the war become voter*,
w ith a sprinkling oi ex-soldiers of the
late war. Regarding the organization
known as the “.Stars and Stripes,” which
i have reason to believe is rapidly ex
teudiug its influence over the state, I
have been enabled to learn secretly
somethii g. Some months ago a promi
nent government official of Toledo,
wdioee name 1 have, made a prolonged
visit to Washington, and on his return
he began the founding of the mystic
brotherhood in that city. Planted there
it soon extended to other town#, in
cluding Sandusky, Tiffin (the home of
General Gibson, who is reported to be
sn active member), Monroeville, Cleve
land, Mansfield, Newark aud Columbus.
1 l»e Toledo official made many myste
rious visits to interior towns, it is be
lieved for tbe pur|H>se of founding
lodges. On Monday night last a party
of about twenty-five from Newark paid
a flying visit to Mansfield, and were,
until away into the morning, in secret
t one xve with the mystic crew of that
city. These* mysterious gatherings
under cover.of night have caused much
concern to the democrats, who have
vainlv essayed to discover tbeirobjects
in banding together. Beyond tbe low
murmur of voices and the tramp as of
men drilling nothing as to what is done
within ttieir well-guarded thresholds
has been discovered. Their secrets are
sacredly guarded, and when after mid
night they emerge from dark hallways
and silently scatter to their homes, the
pedestrians who may be on the almost
deserted streets of the rural towns are
tilled with curiosity and alarm. Cir
cumstances tiiat have come to my
know ledge (and admissions made to me
which it would bi injudicious for me
todivulgeat the present writing) satisfy
me beyond a doubt that ifithin the
republican party of this state there are
oath-bound organizations whose secret
ploltitigs bode no good to the republic,
and w hich should be discouraged by all
lover# of peace aud harmony.

The cry tor troops ma*fe by the usurp
ing legislature in Louisiana wa# laid
l*efore the p.-esident early thi# morning.
He was used to the howl in thia respect
from the quarter soliciting the army,
and he took the matter complacently,
tie wa# relieved beyond measure to
other. But to-day, from trustworthy
infc.rmatiou, it seems probable tiiat
Blaine will t ike Mr. Conkling’* position
in favor of an honest count. I shall an
a yze his motives some other time.
Suffice it to day tha* they are sound,
and that if he does take that position,
the generous American people will be
likely to forgive and forget certain
transactions, at present neither fully
explained nor fully examined.
) here will lie no difficulty about
seven followers if Conkling and Blaine
take the lead. It is thought more than
probable, almost certain, that Senator
Robertson of South Carolina, Alcorn
of Mississippi, and Hamilton of Texas
wil be among them It is known that
Senator Jones, of Nevada, entertains
the profoundest admiration for tbe
aluli'v and character of Mr. Conkling
and it is probable that Mr. Jones, as
well as Ins colleague, Mr. Sharon, and
such men as Harvey, Hitchcock, Wad-
leigh, Christiancy, Paddock. Burnside,
Dawes, and even Edmunds and Fre-
linghuvsen, would be strongly inffu
enced bv Mr. Conkling'
But the greatest influence, after all,
in favor of the |>eaceable inauguration
of Mr. Tilden, is the force of public
opinion, the silent but salient power of
right, the daily increasing evidence of
the the mon,trons fraud committed by
the new confederates in order to count
in Hayes.
Let me briefly present some evidence
of the effective operation of these
moral forces upon the minds of some
of the most important of the new con
federates; let me show conclusively
tiiat a change ha# come over the spirit
of their dream : that confidence in the
s»tcce«8 of their plot has vanished, and
serious douht has taken its place. Here
are a few facts:
Grant ta»k* in an entirely new way.
In recent conversations he* has show*n
irritation at the “mistaken view of the
public,” to use his own language, as to
his position. I believe that Grant's
m«nd has undergone another chanire
within the last fortnight. I know at
least, beyond a shadow of a doubt that
in a recent conversation with a most
intimate friend, Grant said that he
never expressed or even indicated the
opinion that Hayes was elected and
would be inaugurated; that he (Grant)
“would not mix in the matter,” but
surrender the government to whomso
ever was legally elected, “glad, most
triad, to get out of the White House.”
How long he will stick to this opinion
remains to be seen. In this category
I must mention a thing both important
and amusing. The friends of an honest
count have an ally in the White
House. 1 trust it is no indelicacy (I
know it is the absolute truth) to say
that Mrs. Grant is most emphatically
against the scheme of the new confeJ-
erat* s to count in Hayes. The plain
sense and womanly instincts of the ladv
have convinced her that Tilden is fair
ly elected ; and whatever influence she
possesses is exercised over Gen. Grant
to abate his fierce partisanship and to
neutralize the * fleet of the manipula
tions of Cnandler, Don Cameron <£ Co.
But of t his, more some other time.
Mr. Ferry, too, talks differently. He
likewise has charged his mind consid
erably It was ojtenly said by Merton
that Mr. Ferry would’simply ’refuse to
receive the lilden returns from the
disputed states. But Mr. Ferrv has re
ceived them all without a word of ob
jection, It was openly asserted that
Mr. Ferry would count the electoral
votes and not congress, and Mr. Ferry
for a long time assented to this at least
by that studied silence which gives
consent. But 1 hear from a dis in-
g.ii?hed senator from the east that Mr.
Ferry has quite recently denied that he
ever * laimed any right whatever to
count the electoral votes. It was gen
erally asserted and generally believed
that the majority in the senate would
insist upon Mr. Morton's idea that the
vice president and not congress had the
power to count. But I bear from an
other prominent senator that this plan

Mr. Kernan said that as a senator and
lawyer he would advise the witness to

—Newnan Blade: This veteran and
faithful democratic journalist (Colonel
Carey W. Styles) has been forced to
retire from the newspaper business,
greatly to the regret of the craft in
Georgia. For ten years he has labored
incessantly by pen and speech for the
success of true democratic principles.
He now seeks ;?onie position under the
adminiitration of Gov. Colquitt, and
we hope his superior claims will be re

more justly entitled to an adequate re

—Grainesville Eagle: All the candi
dates for state officers have opposition,
we believe, except Col. Renfroe, the
present state treasurer. This is as it
should be, so far as he is concerned.
He took hold of the financial depart
ment of the government of Georgia
when everything was in confusion on
account of the unfortunate complica
tions existing at the time. He has
labored assiduously to place our
moneyed affairs in tangible form,
and there is abundant evidence
that his efforts have been crown
ed with success. Col. Renfroe’s forth
coming report will the fullest and most
satisfactory document that has ever
emanated from the state treasury, and
will show conclusively wliat skill and
pluck can accomplish. 1 ol. Renfroe
and his efficient clerk, Capt. J. W.
Murphy, have both served their re
spective counties in the legislature, and
are well and favorably known all over
Georgia, and, in our opinion, a “stron
ger team” would be hard to find.

the “judicary needs remoddling,” we
must accept the remarks with a slight
gram ot saline matter.

Macon Telegraph: The Washington
Union, copying a part of Governor
Brown’s letter on the presidential is3tie,
remarks that his views po*#“ss • in
creased significance from the fact that
he is. understood to be a candidate for
election to the United States senate.
This is not the urdeistaadin? here.
We have been assured that neither Gov.
Brown’s health, which is unfortunately
feeble, nor his business engagements,
will permit him to contest for the sen
ate, and that he does not seek the po
sition. A great many, no doubt, be
lieve that he would make a very useful
and influential member of that body,
Dut no one has said in our hearing that
he desired the position. His letter
must, therefore, be considered as an
expression of opinion altogether unbi
assed by any pei^onal consideration: .
