The Sun to day, eayc: A distinguished dis-tinguished statesman who has been Urgely identified with the republican party, but who nevertheless voted for Horace Greeley, thinks the rise ol extremisfs in tho south baa revived and reinvigorated extremists ex-tremists in the north, and that Grant may again he elected by the I same current oi feeling that has restored to the senate euch extremists ex-tremists as Logan, Carpenter and Chaudler. Chicago, 27. Inter-Ocean's Washington: Wash-ington: Democrats are gcod deal frightened us to their power to put through their caucua plan for coercing the president. Only two greenbackers will vote with them to attach political legislation to the appropriation bills. Thia reduces them to three majority, a narrow aud dangeroua margin. They are roundly abusing the greeu-backerB greeu-backerB and suggest ths.t tbey make permanent arrangements with the republicans, and camp with them. In reply to these taunts the grecu-bacbers grecu-bacbers eay they propose to act independently of both parties, going with either only eo far as they appear in the right, and that the democrats are clearly in the wrong in their policy of attaching political legislation to appropriation hila, and will repent of it before the end of the year. Senator Bayard's course in the caucus in antagonizing political legislation legis-lation on the appropriation bilN, in which position he was overwhelmingly voted down, is bitteily criticized by democrats. They say his attempt to trim in this critical matter has ruined his presidential prospects; that Tilden is in harmony with the party, ap proving the course of the majority, standing out in marked contract with his great Delaware rival. The Tribune's Washington believes the president will not approve appropriation appro-priation billa containing political legislation. The president has repeatedly re-peatedly denied that he .would eign Buch a bill, and Secretary Evarts alone urges him to compromise. All the rest ot tho cabinet dissuade him. A deadlock is quito certain. If the democrats succeed in carrying their proposition through, and having placed no limit upon legislation, the session is likely to last several weeks, il not mouths. There are many of experience who beiieve the legislative bill, if these amendments are attached, at-tached, will not leaoh the president before May 1st. |
