Latest By Mail. The spcalterehlp The South. ISpecinl Dispatch to the Gazette. Washington, July 31. The question of the. speakership is beginning to develop new and very importaut combinations.- 'It has leaked out, for instance, that the Democrats of the South look ad vantage of the recent postal conven tion at Old Point Comfort to send up as delegates men who were promi nent in Southern politics for the pur posed quietly talking over the plan of securing the Speakership for the South. A great number of very prominent men were thus brought together, and when the routine postal business was concluded they dis cussed the Speakership and the gen eral interests of the parly. . With very few exceptions all the Southern States yvere represented. So far as cau he learned of the secret caucus it appears that the delegates represent ing Southern interests determined if possible to throw a Southern man into the Speaker's chair. The two they now have in mind are John Goode, of Virginia, and A. M, Scales, (if North Carolina. Marshal Bob Dongia. Special Dispatch to the Gazette. " f Washington, July 31. While Marshal, Bob Douglas is retained here to answer charges of the Department of Justice, the duties of the Marshal's office are entirely neglected in North Carolina, and from all appearances the illicit distilleries are holding high carnival. Donglas was recently requested to dismiss all the deputies he had in his employ, . preparatory to filling their places with better men." This he did. His deputies were given their discharges on July 1, and ho has been patiently waiting since then to know whether the government meant to retain him before making any new ap pointments, and expectiug ' each day to be informed one way or the other. He has been given to understand that the office must hence forth be kept out of politics and run on strictly business principles, "and he has signified his willingness to obeyv None of the charges against him I have been sustained ; on the contrary, they have bee unsuccessfully refuted; ' and now comes the strongest sort of evidence that the interests of the gov ernment are actually suffering by , his being kept from his post. To-morrow a written statement will be furnished tha Secretary of the Treasury, show ing how the illicit distillers are taking advantage rf-the demoralized con dition of the office to ply their trade. It is in evidence among other things that they have boldy invaded camp meetings to sell their whiskey. Xet Cu Hare Peace. Washington, July 29.
