Probability that Hayes will Recognize Hampton and Nich9UsHi$ Southern Policy Discussed.- Special Dispatch to the Atlan a Constitu tion. Washington, February 19. There seenu to be no hop left. It was ex pected that Conkhng would .. DENOUNCE THE REFUSAL of the commission to receive evidence, and perhaps draw enough republican senators with him to carry the senate 4gisi. the decision. He was not in his sett all day, however, and that hope failed. THE COUNT WILL PROCEED rgulariy to morrow.

Tni u understood to m-an that Haves will recognize the democratic goverti men ts, and wants to receive the benefit of such action. AN UTTERLY BASELESS RUMOR that Ben Hill had been stricken with paralysis created some sensation oat- urday night. it can now be stated as a certainty that the policy of Mr. Hayes will be aeciueaiy conciliatory lowara tne south. All tbe rumors point that way. mm uittke uu a ubo ux uruoi. xi la apparent that the republicans ARK DSPHESSED OVER THEIR VICTORY, and. by no means enjqy their , dearly bought triumph. fCbnsciwtis that they have won through a glaring and wicked fraud, they are hlled with fear that the people wii rise up in judgment on their usurpation and sweep their party from tbe lace of tne earth. The realize the fact that the prescrip tive policy towards the south has been already condemned by the country, and that to continue it under the present Circumstances. BOLSTERING THEIR WICKED USURPATION, up with brotality and fraud, would be crving folly, .'& . But they cannot afford to go into the next campaign with the solid south against them. Hence their policy will be to disintegrate the democratic party ! in that section, PLUCKING THE WHIG HEART out of it, and building a new southern party around that nucleus Mr Hayes will oiler at least two places in his cabi- i net to southern men old whigs, now working with the demacracv inf elrence t6 1 republicans, If he can get I them 'He will, besides this', fill morel important local offices m the south - .......
