This decision is intfnded not only to govern the" action of the attorney general and tbe secretarj of j the treasury, but will apply to the n ply of ithe President himself when the expected resolution passes the Senate, in open session, calling; upon him per sonally for the " information " which the heads of these departments have de clined to give. No formal demand upon the President has yet been made, you nnderstabd the two" resolutions here tofore adopted (in executive session) having been directed to the two cabinet officers above mentioned!. They may be termed the "overture";) the drama or, what is more probable, the farce-will possibly begin next week. It is bound to come, sooner or later and the j DEMOCRATIC DRAMATIS PERSONAL are ready now to intelligently and law fully play their parts, j The friends of the administration are glad that Cleve land and the Republican Senators have locked horns, for it will have a, most beneficial effect on Democrats, inasmuch as St will bring every Democratic Sena tor and Congressman to! the defence of the; administration and cement the party tie between the executive and legislative branches of the government.

Donan, once of Raleigh, now of Dakota, and. several other gen tlemen, forming a syndicate, some time ago sent a couple of old miners oat to Honduras, prospecting , for an alleged placer gold mine said to exist there.

After turning tho river Guayape from its native bed they have begun regular mining and are said to be sluicing out the filthy lucre to the tune of ten dollars per cubic yard. The bed of the river they have re claimed covers many acres in extent, and under the laws of the republio they can lay claim to it all. Pat. departs for "the scene of action" at once.

He was ruled out of order on this occa sion, however, but; has been offered a "new trial" at the proper; time if he wants it. He says he does want it and I hear that Congressman and Senator elect John W. Daniel will be "detailed" , to answer him. Phew!
