One southerner s-iyu liandaLl will not be allowed to delay the appointment of committeee until December, and then trade oO chairmanships in the interest ol Tilden.

Tbe Tribunes Washington correspondent corres-pondent says of tbe high-handed actions of the democrats in tbe house: There u little nope that any republican republi-can whOBQ seat U contested, no matter mat-ter how alight the pretext for the contest, will be permitted to remain. Tbe Bame authority eays: Inferring Infer-ring to the small and uncertain majority ma-jority tne democrats now have in the house, a republican member said, ibis morning, in conversation: " If all with tbe other aide, we should have a majority in the house a good deal of tbe time, but a gwod many of the republican repreeentativea are bo mild and fair that tby are forever leaning over to help the democrats in that way," A leading democratic representative representa-tive Bitid, in conversation yestsrelay, he thought the democrats bad got out of tbe nationnU in the bouse about all they would.
