(OirwyM—ci tk* Ntm mU C—rUr.) Wamumtok, March iS.—0.i« vi»i- Ml effect of the werfhre inaafurcted apMi the AdmluiMratioa by the Re> pobttaMi Senate tuu been to bring the Preatdeut and DemueraUe Congrew*- men Into better relatluus than existed at tbe opening of Couare»s. Senator Ftawib, of Kansas, who opposed the KdnRSnda inorement from its Inception and who has not endeavored to con* ooU bis eppoeMon, remarked that it was ftwtlsh policy from a political view. He said a month or more ago: “By assailing the President we (the Republicans) will Inevitably drive the Demoerats to bis sepport. They can not do anything else.” Senator Plumb’s uolitieal perception has been verified by tbe rosnll. It wee patent to the Demoerats at the outset t hat thev could not even hold aloof from tbe Adminis tration. Tbe Democratic Senators in tbe fret caucus held ou this qnestlon unanimously adopted a resolution pledging their ootdial mid earnest support to the Administration, t here were several Senators present who did not, by any means, subscribe to the wisdom of the President's refusal to Mbmit papers to tbe Setiam. They believed that no harm could have re sulted from permitting tbe Senate to have aecese to all the flies, as a matter of fltot, but in view of tne plain fset that the Republican Senators were endeavoring to make a political issue ot the Preoldeut’s refusal these Sena tors did not hesitate to declare their support of the Executive. The more friendly footing upon which the Ad ministration stands to its |»artv leaders and representatives in Congress is visible in eereral directions. ill- natured criticism’' of the President because of disappointmenio In procur ing desired appointmeuls are not heard among Democrats. The ques tions of difference between Democrats and tba Executive ore no longer thrust upon public notice. In fact, there is apparent a general disposition among Democrats to give the Administration a hearty support and cheerful co-opera jl matters and measures of The natural effect of tk>u In public such a disposition, and of a line of condoet in accord with it, will be to engender a better party feeling and spirit throughout the country, some thing very important as the tlms approaches for preparation for the fall political campaign Oregon will lead oil in June with eu election for State officers and mem ber of Congress. Tbe Democrats In* tend to make a determined effort to , carry tbe State. It is already evident '4bat tbe Republicans are preparing to bend every energy to the capture of the next House of Representatives. It is also evident thal they are enter taining tbe hope of making decisive gains In tbe Sonlhera States. Indeed, unless they can make gains in that section It is diflcult to see how they can control the liooae. The shrvwo- eat Republican leaders who shape and direct the political campaigns of that party have datenuhted that so far as the Sooth is concerned none but repef- table men shall take the Held as its candidates tor Congress. These shrewd leaders appreciate the fact that reputa ble mea are very scarce in the Repub lican perty of tne Sooth, but this does not deter them or dash their hopes. Their policy will be to persuade men of good obaraeter who have not been la affliction with the Republican party to take the Held in opposition to regu lar Democratic candidates and te give them tbe Republican support awd vote On tbe tariff question, and darticu* larlj op the qneetlou of internal improvements, men of good standing In tbe South will tp inj^l to aland for Congress in oppoe^B. to the Democrats. In Virginia, ^orth Caro lina, Teunseeea aim in Georgia can didates will be urged to take the field in behalf of a repeal of the Internal revenue laws. As a means of fasten ing the protective tariff policy more firmly tba Repablioaae will be willing to oomiuit themselves to a repeal of the interaai revenue laws to an extent suffeient for their purposes in Steles and sections where that tax bears heavily upon the people. It. is ex pected that, naturally to a greater or lees extent, there will exist diaaatiafao- tion, resulting from disappointed hopes and ambition, with the Administra tion. Such dissatlsfhetion will be taken advantage ot In short, tbe Republicans mean to thoroughly over haul the South aitd to ply the sharpest tactics in efforts to capture Congree- atonal districts. The idea of making tbe South a fruitful field of political gain prevails among the Republican traders In both bouses here. Sherman, Logan ami other big men of that party Imre nothing but kind words for the South. tMUUl IX LOVU WITH OIUU. A Xmr BcMg mt Uw VsilUfSU Ts Its W*rk •( • TonuMl*.

This year it Is the proper thing for one young ladv to be desper ately In love with another. She may have h young men—and most of tliei'n do—but unless site is pexperately in love with one of her owu sex she cun test assured she is not en reg/e This crate is being carried to a ridiculous extent here. Those of us who have been watching its rapid growth iusve been intensely amused at the extreme ly practical 'manner in which some of the young ladies go simut it. It must uot be supposed tliat because fashion's whim commends a young lady lo rave about some other young ladv's beauty, and lo drip all mailer of literary treacle over the object of her alleged desires, that it is at all neces sary her 'mash' should be one of her owu circle of fVienda. The shrewd girl will never permit herself to be caught in such a flimsy trap as that. She must sdmire something feminine, snd to she looks about her and usually settles down on some actress. Rhea, Jt-onnie Winston and Vernona Jarbeau are the three tavorlics. An ibrce of them are deluged with flowers and pcrftnned notes every time thev come to town. Not long ago Miss Winston atop|>ed for about two hours in Wash ington ou licr way North. A delega tion of young ladies met her at the depot and entertained this luoiinino Uuuthorue during her stay. Quito recently Jarbeau played in “Tbe .Mikado” at one of our theatres. Two young ladies at once became desper ately smitten. They called and were cordially received. ‘Jarbeau told them ail mauuer of prouy ibingn abou' herself, her origin and her history. They were enraptured. But when the clever Utile actress iunoeently told ibena that she was barely past 20, and dial site felt just like s school-girl, the ) oung ladies looked at her a trifle Increduously. Before they left Jarbeau managed to tell them that in case they hired a box at the matinee she would flirt with them from the stage. The girls hired the box and Jarbeau did as she promised. All of this talk may be sickening to those who have never moved in society at the Capital, hut it must he oonfe-sed that when one looks at die average brainless dude who is supposed to entertain the young lady he does not wonder at the fact that tbe girls are foiling in love with another. one must be joking,” replied “fcfflfc&SJSifSS? iffaata, <k ATTKMPTRO ASHAMSINATIOM. Aa ftflbrt ta taka tba LI fa af tka Mayor of ■aaston. Ou Tuesday night an attempt was made to assassinate Mayor Win. it. Baker, of Houston, Texas, under peculiar circumstances. Mayor Baker is running aa an independent citizens' candidate for re-election against D. C. Smith, die Democratic nominee, who is being supported by the labor organ- laations. Tbe canvass baa beeu sigual- ixed by numerous acrimonious discus- ■fous. On die evening iu queetioti Baker, with others, intended a colored Baker campaign tneedug, near tbe Howard Oil Mill*, in the 4di ward. About 8:90o’dock with Judge Bra-her, Edward Jeudeoii and aeverml colored men, he surfed to walk some distance to the omekirts of the town where another meeting was being held. After crossing the babine at the bridge a high lonely structure, the parly emerged ou the 8outh side, when a horseman riding a gray horse rapidly approached and asked: “la Mayor Baker In that crowd T’ “Yes, what do you wsmt with me?" asked the Mayor as he left tne party and walked toward tbe horsman in tbe middle of tbe road. “1 have some private business with you,” said the rider, and he asked Baker to walk down the road a short dietsMoa. As they started away the man said: “Will you withdraw in favor ol BteMiF’ “Yua Baker. beveral rods from the starting point the assassin pulled up bis horse and Baker placed his left baud yn the horee's mane aa if to listen, wheu sud denly the Mayor was greatly startled by the flash of a pistol in his face, which blinded him for a moment Three shots were tired In quick succes- eion. Baker dodged to ihe ground, ami tbe would-be assassin, whw evi dently thought he had killed the Mayor rode hastily away. He was followed by Judge Brashear and Mr. Jcmison, who opened fire on him. Inveetiga tion dcrelo|»ed the fact that the I Woe man had watched the Mavor’t patty leave the first place of meeting ami had followed them by a circuitous route. The Mayor is uninjured. He is sixty { ear old and one oftba wealthiest men in lams comity. He is not a po'itician and qever drew bis ssisry df Mayor. He is unmarried and accepts the posi tion as a means of occupying his time. Tka Blair BUI It eeenu that there is a determina tion on tbe part of tbe advocates of tbe Blair bill in tbe House to press them selves to a bearing. At a meeting of the fHends of the bill recently the fol lowing rasolutien was adopted, which if carried out will give them a hearing. It reads as follows: “That Mr. Will’s, of Kentucky, be and he is hereby requested to introauce Into the House next Monday the bill eomteonly known as the 'Blair bill,’ with such amendments thereto as he may deem best, if any, and move that said bill be referred to a committee ot tbe House that, in bis opinion, will report thereon promptly; and in the meautime the ebairmau of thie confer- enoe appoint a committee consisting of two members of each delegation who shall confer with their respective colleagues and secure their support of •aid reference, said committee to re port at an adjourned meeting.” Dr. ArMstung te It le now definitely rattled that Dr. Armstrong, late rector of St. Philip’s Chnroh, Atlanta, will take to the lec ture field.

Ex Postgiaster Manlex, of Angu-ta, Mr., tin; Mend of Mr. Blaii o, who came Imre a week ago to s|>cnd some days in conferring with Mr. B ailie’s friends and in looking ovor tin: uolili- cal field, led the city MOm< yvhat abrupt ly for New York, where) he will |>r** a few days and theoce retuin t>> Maine. In -peaking lo a friend Mr. Mauley -aid that Ida vi-it ligd betm shortened bv the persistent fabrication of remai k» made by him. The statement respect ing Mr. B sine’s position on ihe con troversy between (he Senate and the President, for instance, was putdished in a New York paper before Mr. Manley had called upon Senator Fne. As be remarked upon that .subject: “1 do not think Mr. Biainc is inixini> himself up with matters which U”t only do not concern him, bnt which can have no important bearing upon public affairs or upon public opinion.” There U no doubt whatever about tbe plans of the friends of Mr. Blaine. They do not propose lo abandon tbe context. They claim that the loss of New York was due to that ill-consid ered dinner. The llurchaid incident was worked by the opposition for all it was worth at the last moment, but to the dinner they charge t lie most serious influence upon the popular sen- tlmeut inNewYoik. Mr. Blame him self so considers it, but recognizes tbe (act that while inspired by the best of motives among his friends the indis creet speeches which it drew out were unfortunate. It is thought that with the expericnee of 1884 and the imbe cility and distractions of the Dcmo- crat.c party they wtlj,bc able to carry the country. At nil event*, Mr. Blaine’s friend* have made up their minds to begin earl) and rally their old forces in their support before they become dispersed iu siip|>ort of oilier candidates. They will take a hand yi tbe Congressional and Legislative campaigns, where there is a chance of strengthening their position. DYING UNDER I‘ASTECK’8 CARE. Th« Tsrrlbls Dsalh of a Bassinn Who was BUtsa by a Mad Wolf. One of the Russians, who were bit ten by mad wolves, died in Paris la week with all the symptoms of hydro phobia. The Russian* were placed under Dr. Pasteur’s care on the 15th March. Tbev were nineteen in oum tier. All hart' be«l attacked by mad wolves and terribh lacerated. The man who died had been carefully o|mt ated upon and regularly inoculatci! with virus twice in every twenty-four hours since be arrived. His terrible death has operated as a serious check to public confidence in the effective ness of Pasteur’s discovery. The first positive indications that the patient’s system was resisting the treatment manifested themseivs on Sunday, after ne had been in the hospital over five daya and had beeu inoculaftd more Ilian halt a dozen times. Dpaih oc curred while the man was mad and wild Vitb phvsical torture. The scientist is much anno) ed by the un favorable comments cau-ed by this failure of bis method, but he insists that it establishes nothing. The in quest revealed'the presence iu one of the man’s cheek bones of a portion of s decayed tooth that niidoubiedly be longed to tbe welf by which tba man was bitten. This Pasteur »U|«p”>-es hastened the incubation ot the disease The lungs and other internal organs were filled with clotted blood, showing that there had been paralysis of the breathing apparatus. The tonsils aiic tongue were abnormally swollen, mid tbe brain was slightly congested, but was otherwise healthy. The other Kuseian patients hare shown i>mp toms of acute hydrophobia.
