Chuffing Political Complexion of the United States Senat?. Accidental events aa well as the pro gress of public sentiment favor tho D?m ocratie party. Tho death of Senator Morton diminishes the slender and wan ing Republican majority in the Senate, and his Democratic successor will bo an addition to tho strength of tho otherside. Senator Patterson, of South Carolina, who is under indictment for felony, is likely to lose his sent by expulsion, and his successor will be a Democrat. Sen ator Davis, of Illinois, who attended tho Senatorial caucus of neither party, will probably act with tho Democrats in* ques tions where they have right and justice clearly on their side. If tho Democratic claimants from Louisiana and 8outh Car olina are admitted to seats, tho long re publican ascendancy in tho Senate is Eime, and tho Dotnocratic party will ave a majority in both branches of Con ?rosa. It is certain enough that tho lemocrats will control the Senate during the last two years of Prc-ident Hayes' term, and there seems almost an oven chance that they may gain this advantage in the Forty-fifth Congress. This possi bio chango in tho party composition of the .Senate is of so much interest that it may hp worth while to look into it. Tho following classified list contains the names of all Senators entitled to scats on tho day of Mr. Morton's death, with the singlo omission of Senator Davis, of Illi nois, whose independent position docs not permit him to be arrayed on cither Bide : R?pub?tcan?.-Allison, Iowa; Anthony, ll. ?.jj niniuc, Me.; Dooth, Cal.; Bruce, Miss. ; Burnside, lt.

By the death of Senator Morton and thc certainty that the Governor of In diana will appoint a Democratic suc cessor, this slender Republican majority of six is reduced to four, and to three aa often as Judgo Davis votes on the Demo cratic side. If Patterson, of South Car olina, should ho expelled, the Republi cans will have only a majority of two on critical occasions and of only one after Patterson's Democrulio successor is seat ed. With Sharon, of Nevada, absent, as he feels at liberty to bc a great part of thc time, the Republican majority would be annihilated as soou ns Patten.on ls re placed by a Democrat, nnd tho Senate would be brought to a tio un political questions. P.?t a tic would not destroy | Republican control, ainco the Vice Pres ident, who is a Republican, has a casting voto whenever tho Senate is equally di vided. But it must bo remembered that there are three vacant seats, and that the filling of these may reduco tho Republi cans to an absolute minority, when the casting vote of the Vico President cannot help them. Louisiana is not represented in tho Senato at all, and South Carolina has but ono Senator. These three sent? belong, of right, to the Democrat*, and if thc Democratic claimants are admitted thc Republican majority in the Senate is hopelessly gono for tho whole of Hayes' term. j if tho Republican Senator** aro lUiscru* pnloiis enough they may perhaps main tain their ascendancy during tho Potty- , fifth Congresa by admitting Kellogg iVora Louisiana and keeping tho other uu?lhd seats vacant. But thia would bo a hat* ordous experiment. Judgo Davis would certainly vote against them in any at tempt to perpetrate a manifest injustice, and perhaps also two or three Republi can Senators who strongly approve of President Hayes' Southern policy. If tho Presidont was right in recognizing the Democratic State governments in Louisiana and South Carolina, the Dem ocratic Sonntors from those States ought to bo admitted. It is only necessary that two Republican Runatnr?-say Mr. Ohris tiancy 'and Stanley Matthews-r-shuuld ! veto with Judgo Davis and tho Demo crats in filling tho contested seats to es-1 tablish a clear Domocratic ascendancy in the Senate. Tho foregono certainty that tho Democrats are to control tho Senate during the last half of Mr. Hayes'term tends to discourage unscrupulous party zeal, and it is quito possible that the fill ing of tho vacant Beats may reduce the Republicans to a minority in tho present Senato. When thoir very Blonder ma i'ority can bo maintained only by a reek ess partisanship which overrides justice, and may be lost In any evont by tho re fusal of barely two Republican Senators to go all lengths, the party is nractictlly bankrupt in the Senate of tito United States. If a merchant were reduced to such an extremity bis credit would be ruined. This narrow and vanishing Republican majority in tho Senate is a great political fact which President Hayes cannot pru dently ignore. Tho usefulness of his ad ministration depends upon a reasonable support by Congress. Ho ls In a very different position from that in which General Grant stood during the first six years of his administration, when he had strong Republican majorities in both houses. Beyond the mere routine of ex ecutive duties President Hayti can . do little for tho advantage, of the country without the permission of his political opponents. During tho last half of bis term certainly...'and for the first half pos sibly, he wiU'j^aye to . cVjpond on Demo craiiu to ??c? iiiz ^ppoiwtnicnt-". con firmed, and"DO public measures which no may recommend ta Congress can possi bly pass without Democratic approval. If, therefore, he desires to promote the public weal he must abandon every thought of being a party President. He must attempt nothing which is not clear ly for the public advantage, and by adopting this simple rule ha may win approval for a useful and perhaps even a brilliant administration. As ho is pledged against seeking or accepting a second term ho has no strodg personal motive tc a~ay him fro"? a murun die.? toted by high patriotism; and if ho recog nises the opportunities nut in bis way by this uniquo situation ' ho may leave our public affairs in n far better condition than that in which ko found them. It is too evident that President Hayes' political party cannot help him. If he s'peots much of it- ho will laanupon a broken reed. For the last half of his term it will have no power in either branch of Congress, and 07on for the first half it is powerless ia tho House and fatally crippled in ?V, Sonaje. Thu st&to of thing* opens a gr?nd opportunity to the President if ho is sagacious enough, has moral elevation enough,-iud political courage enough to improve it for the benefit of the country;; ?Uv oin do what none of his recent predecessors have had .any possibility of accomplish ing. He can emancipate himself from all party tics, can rise superior to all nar row partisan views, and give us, for qnoo In this j^cerationp anarhninislrationccn da?M wm. ? eye single to tho public gOCKl. A SUCCesaful partisan adminl-tra tinn would be quite o*Jt of bis reach, even if he possessed the vigor of tho late Sen ator Morton combined with the political tact of Senator Blaine. There is an in superable barrier to his success asa purty chief in tho great and growing Demo cratic strength in Congress. There is but one successful course open to Presi dent Hayes, and that lies in the direction of reforming the abuses which have grown up during three generations of party control of tue government. A sub limo and beneficent mission if the Presi dent could be brought to sec it ! As a party President Mr. Hayes' hand? t?re completely tied ; butas a President of the people, seeking only their advantage and appealing ci:iy to their candor, hon esty and intelligence for support, he has an opportunity to distinguish luit admin istration from thone of our long line of party Presidents, who have been con strained by personal ambition or party necessities to do things which thc judg ment of impartial men could not sane* tion. President Hayes is morally ami politically free, ami sinco hts own party is powerless to help him, and thc Demo cratic opposition shows no disposition to thwart lum, ho may leave a great mark on our public life if he rises to the full height of his opportunities.-"Wie York Herald. lim pits ? ?
