THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION'. ATLANTA, GA.. TUESDAY DECEMBER 30 1884. TWELVE PAGES. AT THE CAPITAL. GARLAND AND THE ATTORNEY GENERALSHIP. X!r. Bayard???s Cbolos-Evsrts Opouly Declares HU Cttucidccr???Mr. BasdslPa 8oaibera i'flp- Kr. Tlldsn Intend* to bo Pr??*??nta: * the Zoaasuration of Clevclaad. Wx8hingt6N, December 23.???[Special.]???Mr. Garland???s visit to Albany confirms the cabinet makers in their belief that he is to be Cieve- land???s attorney-general. His return into the senate this morning was the occasion of a rush of gossips to him, similar to that which Bay ard endured a few days ago, when he returned from bis pilgrimage to the Moccaot tho hope ful statesmen. Mr. Garland is reserved in his expression,* and says nothing to indicate the result of his visit, but there is no longer any considerable doubt that he has been tendered and has accepted the attorney-generalship. It Is also quietly whispered that this arrange* ment is not pleasing to Bayard. He and Gar land have seldom agreed ou lines of party- policy, and probably no two democratic sena tors sustain less cordial relations to each other. Both, however, are big men who rank in the fore-front of national leaders. There will be no disagreeable conllist between them in the cabi net. MB. BATABD???S CHOICE. It is now an open secret that Mr. Bayard was requested to como to Alba ny by Governor Cleveland, and that the president-elect requested him to head his cabinet. The office of secretary of state is con sidered of tho first dignity, and it was Clove- land???s intention, doubtless, to put Mr. Bayard there. But it is now about conceded that Mr. Bayard is to bo secretary of the treasury under . the new adminiitration. This was his chftice. Xhe reasons that influenced him to make it are apparent to his friends. Tho secretary of state Is one of tho second social dignitaries in Wash ington. He is thrown constantly with the representatives of foreign pow ers, most of whom receive princely salaries besides tho large privato incomes they usually possess. They entertain superbly and tho secretary of stato is obliged to cultivate the most cordial social relations with them. In turn ho must entertain as not even the president is expected to do. To moot all the requirements of this office takes, it is said, from $20,000 to $30,000 a year. His sal ary is $8,000. Mr. Bayard is a poor man. That is to say he is worth probably $76,000. He would not accept any offico, tho requirement of which he could not fill in every particular. And then the secretary of the treasury has decidedly the moro important trust. Ho holds great power over the financial policy of the govern ment.- Mr. Bayard has been fighting for hon est currency and against all wild experimen tal tendencies ever smeo he set out on his career as a public man. In this connec tion it may bo said that Washington gossip has agreed upon two men for the cabinet??? Mr. Bayard to be secretary of the treasury, and Mr. Garland, of Arkanas, to be attorney general. Beyond this there is a Babel confus ion oi rumors. XVARTS???S CANDIDACY. Evarta???s open declaration of his candidacy for tho Hew York senatorship has aroused President Arthur's friends to fresh exertions, lie is in daily communication with his most trusted supporters in tho legislature, and overy few days some of his friends come over for a personal interview with him. Blaine is thought to favor Evarts, but it for anybody to beat Ar thur. MB. RANDALT.???S TRIP. Mr. Randall will start on his southern trip Fridoy. Ho has been much amused at the importance attributed to his movements by hfs bitterest opponents, and at the various expla nation* they havo offered for them. Washington, December 25. ??? [Special.] ??? Mr. Tiiden has engaged a suite of rooms in ???Washington and intends to bo presout at Cleveland???s inauguration* lie writes to friends hero that his heslth is better than for some time past, and that he oxpocti to be in Washington about March 1st, to [ro- main two weeks. His rooms aro directly under thoso already engaged by Ilondrlcks, With Tiiden and Hendricks, Blaine and J.ogsn, Hancock and English, Arthur and probably Grant hero on tho 4th of ???March, Cleveland will have the groatest array of presidential candidates that ever witnessed on inauguration. Washington, December 27.???[Special.]??? Hon, Samuel J. Randall started os his southern trip at fiva o???clock this afternoon accompanied by Mrs. Randall and Representative McAdoo, of Hew Jersey. He will visit Hashville, Louisville, ??? Birmingham and Chattanooga, being compell ed to decline the invitations to Charleston, Ashland, Ky., and Hew Orleans. Just as he was leaving he received a pressing invitation from tho board trade of Mobile, to visit that city which he declined with regrets by tele graph. Persons who take the trouble to ex plain Wattenon???s frenzied attacks, sty they are animated not so much by his opposition to Randall???s tariff views as by tho bitter memory that while he was prancing around Washington last winter, lobbying for tho whisky bill, Randall was choking the life out of it. Mr. Tindall will he sccompanicl by his wife and by Congressman McAdoo, of Hew Jersey, lie w ill be met at Win chester,* Lexington and Frankfort by re ception committees, who will escort him to this city. Monday morning he will he en tertained by Mr. John ??.?? Green, president of the board of trade. At noon hs will be on ???Change, and will he welcomed officially by the board of trade, who have called a special meeting for the purpose. The in vitation to Mr. Randall by the hoard of trade was passed without a single dissenting voir.- a 13 p. m. Mr. Randall will be dined by the Fendennfs dob, the most fashionable club <n the ??ty?? At night he will make a speech at Liederkrona hall, after which hs will hold an Informal reception. He will leave at midnight for KaihvlUe, In charge of a committee from that* place. He will go to Birmingham Wednesday, and will return north by way of Chattanooga and Lynchburg Mrt. Randall while here is the guest of Mrs. O ???or Tamer. Wasbixctox, December 23.???[Special.]??? When the present congressional recess is over the contest between the senate and the house on the temporary nave! appropria'ion bill will be renewed. Both si dee made a great show of firmness in the committee of conference last .week. The bouse hss every advantage. It compelled the senate at the very close of the last geamon to recede from the position it has ???gain assumed. In the senate the advocates of the disputed amendments can'command no more than their party strength, and barely that, whilo in the house the democratic majority baa the support of soveral ^publi cans, including their broadest and most caps- pable leader, ex-Goverftor Long, of Massa chueetts. Senator Hale, chairman of the sen ate naval committee, has his head set on tacking the steel cruisers on to the house bill; making appropriations for the navy for tho next six months. Ho goes back on the theory that riders should not be placed upon appro priation bills, which theory his party chain pioned in tho famous extra session during the Hayes administration, when the democrats were trying HER MAJESTY???S INCOME Repairs on Boyal Xalaoes-Costof tho Quoin???s Rel atives - Big b-Born Court Mentals ???

To throw livo million dollars more into these experiments before tho points of superiority or inferiority of the cruisers already built have been ascer tained is what the senate requests the house to do, and to do in ou unusual way. The bouse has refused. Tho tbroateued deadlock can have but ono issue, the defeat of tho senate. Before tho 4th of March all this trouble will havo ended.

THK LULL IN WASHINGTON, COO yearly paid to the queen from tho reve nues of thecountry it is pretty well understood (list her r&ejeaty makes a considerable saving, thtao ???perquisites??? forming an addition to her privato income, of which sne is shrewdly care- iul. Queen Victoria is commonly supposed to bo worth at least $1,500,000 per annum, not a largo sum, perhaps, as incomes go but the greater part derived from the pockets of the people. With an expensive, and in mnny respects an altogether unnecos sory retinue, ^it is * * ...... ??? obvious that her majesty must have other sources sf revenue than the ???urns yielded by on economical management of her household, the oxpenses of which Are ui mr liuuoi'uuiu, iuu uAjiuuavn ui nuivu aru as I hare said,paid by tho state in the civil list vote. Every yesr she receives from tho Duchy of Lancaster $225,000 and the returns of net profit are on tho increase. Again, when tho queen married Princo Albert in 1840 her con sort was granted an annuity of $160,000. Princo Albert was allowed to hold on oi me American navy unburdened by i several sinecure offices, which, however, of the trashy legislation the republicans I brought grist to tho mill, and ho is supposed iow endeavoring to throw into its woy. | to bare put by a deal of money, but how much never bccamo known, os his will, unliko thoso Some of tho congressmen did not wait for tho recess before starting for home, and many of them left on tho first trains after it wus taken.

From time to timo grants have bocn made to mem bers of her family. Thoso awarded to tho gone and nothing aono. I do not mention this as a reproach to congress. It Is a fact which, in the opinion oj many of its wisest leaders, reflects honorably upon that body. Tbero aro timos when it Is statesmanship to do nothing. Tho discussion of questions relating to tho public institutions or tbo policy of tho government educate the popular mind. They fill the nows^apors with what Congressman So-and-so thinks on tho duty of the hour and the destiny of the coun try, and serve in a measuro to enliven and g eneralize the interest in public affairs, peeches dolivered to a dozen members are printed by the thoasand to be scattered among the people. Thoy fall often whoro they are appreciated; help the genorous orator who franks them through tho mails to pave his way for another term; and often carry use ful intelligence and wholcsomo lontiments to tho masses of tho people. In fact, congress at the disposal of tho people and does not hido his face in some far-away reticat. But tho allowances to the other royal children aro barely tolerated A good deal of feeling exists with regard to other disbursements, and notably thoso mado to the Cambridge branch of the royal family. The present duke, cousin to the queen, is paid ??12,000 per annum, that sum having been voted by parliament in 1850, whon his father died. The proposal was opposed unsuccess fully by John Bright, who regrotted that the former duke, out of his largo income, had made no- provision for his son, but left him, with his sister Mary, dependent on a voto of the house. Mr. Ilurao moved that the sum suggested bo reducod to ??8,000, but Mr. Disraeli, even then a hearty supporter of royalty, defended tho original proposal, and thereby gained for him tell tho gratitude of his sovereign.

Senator Hampton speaks raroly and never readily. Senator Beck is vigorous and direct. Senator Jones, of Florida, has DAVIS AND THE DICTATORSHIP. A Letter which Throws Light Upon tho Mooted Subject, From tlio Nashville Banner. Tho letter, purposing to havo been written by A. H. (Stephens to n. V. Johnson, in April, 18<H, nnd given to tho public by General Shormso, prom nothing against Mr. Davra. In March, lfci, Lieutenant-General Folk, then at Dcmopolir, Ala., sent tho writer to Richmond. Thcobjectsof that mission have nothin j t> do with tho matter In hand. The condition of affairs In the confederacy at that period, while not generally regarded as des perate, was seriously alarming. There was among tho people Wnd In tho armies a feeling that all was not being done that could bo done; that thero was Jack of vigor???a want of energy somewhere. Among the soldiers, especially those of the west, and among the peoplo at large, thero wero many who believed that tho congress was obstructing the best endeavors of Mr. Davis; whilo another party held that tho president had brought upon us a succession of disasters by bis attempt to di rect camnalgns from bis executive offico in Rich mond. Thero was talk of a dictatorship, but if the idea met with favor among the statesmen of the confederacy, it found but very tew friends around the campfires. On the writer's return to the west, about tho 20th of March, 18C4, ho stopped for a night at Au gusta, Ga. The hotel was crowded with soldiers and citizens. In tho public room were gathored after supper, a largo number of ofilcers, represent ing nearly every corps ot the several armies of tho confederacy. An officer of General Johnston's army and tho writer were engaged in conversa tion. I recounted so much of au Interview with President Davis as was properly a subject for talk in a public p???acc. ou think ot making Davit dictator???? asked my friend. My reply was that I had heard whispers of such a project all tho way from Do- roopolis to the Virginia line, but that during my stay in Richmond, in free intercourse with, many who wero presumed to be near to tho president, I had not beard a syllable of any such thing. At this moment a gentleman in citizen's dress, who had been standing near us, faced menbruptly, and appeared about to speak. As if restraining himself with an effort, ho turned away, but I ob served that tho unknown remained near, nnd that he listened, while studiously avoiding tho appear ance of doing so. This mun had already attracted my attention. Rather abovo medium height, of portly frame, n baudsomo man, his air wai so much that of a grand scigueur that I took Min for ono of tho higher rank of civil officials of tho gov ernment. Somewhat nettled at tho very evident lntorcst this gentleman bad In our conversation, I went on to say: "If Mr. Davis Is to bo mado kiug, the king maker isn???t at Richmond.
