l have not much 10 communicate tonight BE-
yond the detailed doiugs Of Congress given in
your report


The Senate is still in session. though it is 1cT
eigh, clock, with strong probability OF an old
fashioned night session. The Locos are deter
mined, il possible to prevent until tomorrow night
,he passage of the bill providing for the collection
and printing of the ancient Congressional Debates
BY Gales s. Seaton. as the only way of killing the
measure. Bills originating in either House can
not be sent to the other within the last three days

the honorable and permanent post he now holds
for one of so short and uncertain as that of
cabinet officer.


There is no doubt that the Administration would
be glad to bring him into The cabinet but 10 not
believe that he can be induced to leave the place

was understood a year and half ago that he re-
fused the post Of Secretary Of War, but would
have accepted the State Department. 1t is not
probable that he will now take an inferior place
even if that can tempt him


There are great many nominations before the
Senate, oil of which are to be disposed OF, in ad-
dition to other business, between this and Monday
night. Some of these nominations have been be.
