fHE SAVANNAH RECORDER. Wednesday, March 26 , 1879 . From Washington. [From the Baltimore Sun.] ACTION OF THE JOINT CAUCUS The action of the Democratic joint caucus committee Monday does not as yet justify any expression of the opinion session, as to the probable length of intelligent cal¬ nor is it likely that any culation can be made as to this for several days to come, certainly not until there has been some decisive ac¬ tion by the full Democratic caucus of the two houses. The determination of the caucus committee to attach the repeal of the Republican political leg¬ islation to the appropriation bills will have the tendency to simplify the situation, and it also furnishes a means whereby the session may be much shortened. If all the repeal measures had been embodied in separate bills the debate on the subject would have to go over twice, if afterwards, by reason of a veto, they should be attached to the appropriation bills. By putting the re¬ peal measures on to the appropriation bills the whole business can be done together. The determination to recom¬ mend the retention of the feature of the election laws providing for the political appointment of is supervisors of each party in accordance with the suggestions of compromise which have already been alluded to in this correspondence. The be Republicans in the two houses will not willing to accept this, but there is to-day the expression of considerable apprehension among them that the Presidont may be in¬ duced to give it his sanction, notwith¬ standing the very decided position as¬ sumed by him two weeks ago. The stalwarts will accordingly proceed to labor with him to prevent such a catastrophe. If the President will sign the bills as outlined, there need be no doubt that the session will termin¬ ate in a comparatively be short time ; for whatever may the disposition of some to plunge into general legislation, there would be no incentive .strong enough to induce the continuing of the session after the political legislation is out of the way. SENATOR SHARON’S PAY. A statement is going the rounds of the press to the effect that Senator Sharon, of Nevada, has drawn four years’ pay and mileage, although in that time he has not spent in all more than sixty-five days in the Senate chamber. This statement is correct, except that it is possible Mr. Sharon has spent more time in the Senate chamber than sixty-five days. The further statement that the secretary is liable for the money paid to Mr. Sharon on account of each day that he was not present is ascertained not to be correct. The Secretary of the Senate has, under the rules of chat body, no authority to withhold the pay of a Senator when demanded, even though such Senator never made his ap pearance m the Senate chamber after being sworn in. Absenteeism is very prevalent among Senators, and this has always been the case. Many Senators appear to hold themselves amenable to no sense of duty, but only to their own convenience and pleasure, going and coming as it suits them ; but one thing they never forget, the draw¬ ing of their salaries. A Senator of great prominence, who has sat in that body for a long time, and who is,never absent without good causo, said yester¬ day that he could not understand how Mr. Sharon could reconcile it to himself to draw pay under the circumstances. Mr. Sharon has, however, the excuse of many precedents, although in no in¬ stance, of course, has there been such a lengthy continuous absence as in his own case. THE CASE OF SENATOR NYE. Some years ago, one of Mr. Sharon’s predecessors from Nevada, the late Senator Nye, spent the greater part of an entire session at home working for re-election. On his re-election he started for Washington, and the first thing he did when begot to the Capitol was to go in to the secretary’s office and pocket the pay for the three or four months that he had been absent. Start¬ ing the crisp pile of new greenbacks into his capacious wallet he walked into tlie Senate chamber. A few minutes thereafter some required partisan two-thirds measure came up, which a vote, and, as a number of Republicans were absent, it could not be gotten through. At this Mr. Nye rose up in his seat, and with that sublimity of audacity his so peculiar and to mortification him, expressed that deep should regret Senators be so regardless of their duty to their country and their consti¬ tuents as to absent themselves from their seats. Senator Sumner, who sat by disgusted Senator Nye, looked at him iu un astonishment and dismay, as in fact did almost every other Senator in the chamber. When Mr. Nye con¬ cluded and sat down, with his face beaming all over with satisfaction, Senator Fessenden, who happened just then to be in an unusually irascible frame of mind, got up aud gave Mr. Nye such a terrible scoring for bis assurance and hypocrisy that the Ne¬ vada Senator could not open his lips. As the Democratic Senators talk ot reform in their body, perhaps it would not be amiss if they should provide against the possibility of parallels to the cases of Mr Nve and Mr Sharon. In the House no member thinks of gettiug away for more than a day or two Without personally asking leave ask of absence, and very often member, leave when they only expect to be A CIIANCE FOE RETRENCHMENT. Comment has frequently been made on the expensive character of the re tinue of servitors surrounding the Sen ate. Under Republican rule the expense has gone on increasing year by year with unvarying regularity. The Dem¬ ocratic Senators have been looking into the matter, and have come to the con¬ clusion that the force under both the Secretary and the Sergeant-at-Arms can be reduced considerably without impairing the efficiency of the service. This is particularly the case with refer- ence to the department of tire Sergeant at-Arms, where there is an army of hangers-on whose principal employment consists in drawing their pay.
