That the affairs of the country have too long been ruoning in a smooth way, with peace end quiet reigning in every section thereof, politically speak¬ ing, is apparent from the efforts that are being made at the capital by the Republican Senators, through their henchman Mr. Edmunds, of Vermont, to override constitutional principles as well as long-established precedents. The latest phase of capital gossip, as welll as of concerted action on the part of the Republican Senators, is announced to be the unseating of Mr. Bayard from the chairmanship of the Senate and the placing therein of In¬ dependent Senator David Davis. The three hours’ discussion inaugurated by Mr. Edmunds on the day of election, and which was conducted exclusively by him, foreshadowed his designs, as during his speech he was at times so much overpowered at the enormity of the action contemplated by the Democrats that his voice trem¬ bled, but hie appeals and laments had no effect as every one knew that he would have argued with equal facility on the other side, if the three Senators waiting to besworn in had been Demo¬ crats instead of Republicans. Mr. Bayard, as plainly indicated in his addreaa on taking the chair, felt that he had been placed there in strict accordance with the constitution and the laws, and had it been otherwise he certainly would not have accepted the place. The Republicans were much encouraged by the fact that Judge Davis voted steadily with them on all the successive motions put by Mr. Edmunds, but when the Senate came for a direct vote on the main question he did not respond to his name at all, so that when hie vote was of any real consequence they did not get it. Now that the three new Senators are sworn in, Judge Davis will possess the power which belonged to Mr. Mahone last spring, and if he chooses can give the Republicans a clear majority of two* There is an impression that he will ally himself with the Republicans, but he has certainly not said so. An inti¬ mate friend of his said that he would accept the Presidency of the Senate at the hands of the Republicans. He could be elected to this position when all the Republicans are in their eeatB by one majority if he should with* hold his own vote. Bnt there is no possible method by which the Repub¬ licans can now dispossess Mr. Bayard as President of the Senate without either the active or passive aid of Judge Davis. If he wants to assume the role of Mr. Mahone the opportunity is open to him, but with the experience of that gentleman staring him in the face he well may hesitate. In an editorial article upon the re¬ cent choice of a chairman the Balti¬ more Sun says: There is no man in the Senate w T hoin, under existing circumstances, the con¬ servative people of the country, with¬ out distinction of party, would be better satisfied to see filling the place. The fact that he was the unanimous choice of the Democratic caucus sufficiently indicates the estimation in which he is held by his party associates, while it is equully Democratic certain that tHfere is no man on the side of the chamber who would be personally more satisfac¬ tory to the Republicans. The next question will be as to the tenure by which Senator Bayard holds his position, and the right of the Sen¬ ate at any time to displace him and elect some one else in his stead. This involves the construction of the clause ot the constitution which says that the Senate shall choose a “President pro tempore in the absence of the Vice President, or when he shall exercise the office of President of the United States." Does this mean that the Senate shall choose a President who shall continue in office until the Vice President arrives or ceases to act as President, or does it mean that the Senate, if it pleases, may have a new President pro tem, every day? The question has never been determined. Senator Edmunds is on record as favor¬ ing the latter view, and such, it may be anticipated, will be the view of the Republican Senators. With parties so nearly balanced that a single vote may turn the scales either way, the specta- cle might be presented of the occupan¬ cy of the chair charging with every accidental msjotity on the floor. The very fact, however, that in the con¬ tingency of a vacancy in the office? both of President and Vice President, the President of the Senate pro tcm. becomes the actiDg President of tbe United States, would seem to imply that the President of tbe Senate is not an occasional officer liable to be chang¬ ed every day, or two or three times a day, if tbe Senate so pleases, but a permanant officer, like the Speaker oi the House,who comes next in the order of Presidential succession. The ques¬ tion is an important one, and Senator Edmunds's suggestion that tbe election of Mr. Bayard as President pro tem. for a day only would be a compliance with the letter and spirit of the law, indicates that it is one which may ooon come under dheuseion. Whatever may be|the views or crotchets of hair¬ splitting constitutional lawyers upon that point, one thing is certain, that tbe people of the United StReo desire certainty aud stability in the matter, and will be slow to (derate ihs idea ot the constitutional successor to the Presi¬ dency beiug the occasional or acciden tal and shifting choice of the Senate, as Senator Edmunds sterns inclined to argne is the case.
