WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON Oo*. lfi, 1878.
Now that Democratic ascendency
in both Houses of tlie 4-01h Congress
assured beyond a reasonable doubt,
our Republican friends don’t laugh
ns loud as they did. They were a
little boisterous the morning after
the Ohio election, over what seemed
to he a small victory in that State,
but it was about like the whistle of
a timid boy in passing a graveyard
And after the ic'nrns were all in,
from which It nppeareil that the par
ty is really in a minority of over
40,000 in the Slate, while the Demo-
ocrats had gained everything of na
tional importance, the whistling be
came mighty hard work. I person
ally know that tlie leaders have
abandoned all hope of gaining con
trol of the House, which they so
freely boasted would be theirs at the
opening of tlie campaign. Nothing
short iifa “tidal wave” could give it
to them now; and the tidal waves
not running that way. The
managers have a scheme which is be-
ng vigorously manipulated. Was
Lliere ever a time when Radical man
agers did not have a scheme? in al)
their desperate situations they have
a prog, anime to work—a line to hew
to. They are as full of expedients
as a dog is of flees, and they act
upon the theory that desperate cases
require desperate measures. A par
ty (hut could pluv and exente tlie
It of States which had voted
agii'nst them by 10,0u0 majority—
that could steal the presidency with
over 250,000 majority of popular
votes and 18 electoral votes against
them—such a party is not likely to
be stopped at small tilings. The pre
iit'programine is to prevent tlie
Domocr.ils from oVaiuing a m ijuri
tV of tlie Congressional delegations
from twenty States in order to defeat
tlie election of a Democratio Presi
dentin 1880. Under the unit rule
eiiult State casts one vote in an eleo-
iion by the House, a majority of tlie
members from a Stale determining
how the vote shall be oust If by
the expenditure of money nnd other
desperate means the delegations uf a
few email Slates like Florida can he
tied so that neither party lias a oleur
majority of States, they would them
direct their efforts tp preventing an
election by the people, and finally as
a result of this state of tilings sieze
the Government and continue,them
selves iu power# Anything to enu
tile them to hold on after Mulch 4,
1881. They have certainly consider
ed all these points, and Ilule’s pri
vate confidential circular Inis been
sent to the managers innertuin Slates
against which their efforts are to he
directed; The Democrats are now
certain of the delegations from 17
States—Hale’s figures give them
that—and the question is can they
lie prevented from get ing tlie other.

and such things.
A nice bit of scandal has just been
opened up here by the suit of Henry
S. Wet more against Admiral Porter.
The present, suit is only to recover
certain sums of money deducted, by
order of the Admiral, from Wetmore’s
siilury as a Naval officer; and paid to
his divorced wife—the purpose being
to lest, the legality of snob notion.
But this issaic/to be only the forern'-

ter’s fleet, and, among other good
'qualities, he.possessed a liiii-dsume
Hite. Tin- Admiral, like some ot cr
men, hud a weakness for handsome

in bis attentions to tlie one in ques
tion. An intimacy giviv out of it
which continued lor years, mi 1 final
ly resoled in separation of in. i and
wife by divorce. Weliinuc's interest
in the woman ended tlier**, as i lie de
cree gave lu*r no alimony or other
claim upon him; but thu Admiral
lias since often visited her. The
proceedings against him have been
carefully mut**i*ed, and ire reported
to be well fortified. Austin
