DESPATftU TO THE BOSTON ashington March 21. The giiestion of an extra session is greatly troubling members of Congress. Those who live at a distance and who have not yet left Washington, make frequent trips to the White Hoase and the State Department to learn, if they tan, what is the determination. Some of them came away with their minds made up that the extra session is to Ite called, while others are still doubtful. Mr.

S. S. Cox, who wants to go to Europe, says that President Garfield has intimated to him that he had better remain at home. Another Cougresmau, a Western man, after an interview with Prc.si- dent Garfield, told his landlady that he would be back here for the extra session about the 21st of April. Tliere is, however, -a very strong pressure brought to bear on the President not to call the session, but it IS generally believed that he has finally, and after much vacillation, aecoruing to his manner, decided on the session.

The truth is, the Republicans are badly caught by the late veto, it was a bad investment. Ou the oilier hand the wiser among the party feel that the slalwarts will greatly itgure the prospeet.s the extreme Southern policy they vvill endeavor to inaugurate by sending investigating ooiuaiit- tees tbrough the South. They know that the eountry will understand the unpatriotic motives wliieii will actuate such a But the Stalwarts desire to have a larger Republican inajoritv in tlio House, and so the This thoroiiglily explains Mr, motive. ill Ih' the ostensible reason for calling tlie se.ssion. The real leason for the pre.ssiire ihat is inakiiig on the I'resident is that tcsti niony in oobalf of the Republican contestants of Deniocratie seats may be inauiifactitred.

It is a partisan and a disbonest purpose, and ought to comletnn the administration that re sorts to it. Still the outlook is that Garfield lias been captured in this, the first fight that the stalwarts have made for the control of the administration. Beinands of the Nfationat Banks. Tbeii there is another power behind the throne demanding an extra session. The truth is Secretary Windom, in the ab.sence of tin funding legislation, stands iu dread of tin national banks.

The cause of lits fear is this: The banks now hoM over ol tht 5s and Os to secure their circulation. If between now aud next December or January the Goverumeiit should sell the 000,000 of undisposed of or 4 l-2s and with proceeds thereof and the surplus should rapidly redeem, say of the i)S and 6s, the in consequence of such redemption would be compelled to snrreiidei probably as many as ol the $200,000,000 of the 5s and 6s now held by tliein. A problem which troubles the Treasury Department is how large a proportion of the 5s ami 6s thus suddenly redeemed would be replaced by the banks with or 4s in order to keep their circulation. Rather than to pay a high premium on 4s or 4 l-2s, would not many of them be tempted to do, as some of them recently did, tiike advantage of section 4 of the act ol 1874, deposit lawful money and rapidly reduce or retire their circulation? The Treasiir.v Dei.artmeut would be absolutely powerless to prevent Ibis. Cold, unanswerable figures show that national banks could do better by purchasing a 3 per cent, bond at par as a basis for circulalioii than to buy a 4 per cent, at a premium of even 113.

In view of this fact are there not a good many banks which would decide to await the passage of a funding bill, in order to enjoy the opportunity of replacing their 5s and 6s with a 3 per cent, bond at par, rather than piircha.se 4 l-2s or 4s, especially the $104,000,000 should fail into the liaiids of a syndicate, which would naturally do everything it possibly coubl to bull the price of these bonds. The of such aii occurrence aud the great uuctrtainty as to what the banks would do in a large amount of the and 6s now held by them should redeemed are really about the strongest argiimeut in siippoit of the tnactment of fiinding legislation at an early day: and the gravity of the situation increased by the dangerous power accorded the banks 4 of tlje act of 1874, the repeal of which ha.s been so stubbornly opposed by the well-nigh united Republican party in Con gress and by the Reimblican press. The difficulty and the cinborrassmcnt can overcome only by an extra session and a Fitndtng bill. Tbc Republicans find that the have come home to in di.stres.sing luitnbeo and with inconvenient suJilennes.s. Tlie Post Olflce.

Her Theatre in London, of which Lord Dudley is the prcprietor, has for many years been devoted to lyric art as manifested in Italian opera, but recently tbe owner aud managers have decided to enlarge its usetul- ness, if tbe term may be in this connection, and to introduce the highly cultivated habitues of the theatre In operatic trials, to all that is best of variety aud minstrelsy, under the most favorable auspices, when the opera is The season of Italian opera will begin in some or three months, and iu the interim the stage occupied by a combination made up of celebrated African singers, wonderful luaudolin players, celebrated French duettists, Fiji (w hatever they may be), renowned jugglers, a chap who sings songs in French, and the with a section of minstrelsy, and the audiences which attend are somewhat notable.

Many people bv whom the suggestion of such an entertainment elsewhere would be very frostily received, condescend to go a second, a third time even, to Hie Music Dali at Her Theatre. The London Daily Telegraph thus humorously comments on the new The trite aphorism that there should be a place for everything, and that everything should be found in Its place, has beeu so long impressed on youthful minds by printed ill the largest type that there wou'd seem to be no jwssibility of tbe remembrance of the maxim ever fading from meiuorv. The huge posters now' supplying a novel kind of mural decoration to the walls of the Italian Opera House in the Haymarket seem, however, curiously antagonistic lo a precept quite as appropriate to the stage as to the school room. That a vast amount of talent exists in various forms at the music halls of the metropolis is not to be disputed, and the substantial rewards gained by those who contribute to the of the public in utterly unknown to a preceding generation are to be fairly considered the due of a peculiarly clever and singularly hard working section of the community. It may, nevertlieless, be gravely qiiestioiied whether in the iuteresis of high musical art any opportunity should be given to exiierts in jig dancing, banjo plaving, and the tui iT' rendering of songs to announce themselves in our own provinces aud in foreign cities as Her Miyestv's Theatre, Complex notions may possibly be loriiied in tbe capitals of Europe coucfrning the peculiar tastes of the English aristocracy, and future of the rise and progress of Italian Opera in this country, more exact as to date than correct as to description, may pen hance record that in the present inontli an elaborate by Mr.

Herbert Campbell, euphoniously entitled am getting a big boy had ded at the Italian Opera the best of Mozart, Rossini and Beetlioven. The tributary (carol many a shade" belonging to illustrious names associated through the eenturv with the glories of Italian Opera wa-, doubtless, readv to be slied over a programme identified ith Her Theatre conuaen- cii.g with topical allusions by a voealist, and closing with a wbinisieal quad! die danced by the grotesque troop known as Jiji Even a building dedicated to Apollo may. however, have conditions, like a music hall programme, to It is easily demonstrated that two blacks will never make one white, but even tbe seventy included in the imported company of American Mastodon would hardly be accented a making one white comic singer a fitting occii pant of tbe boards of our oldest Italian Opera House. This is confessedly an ago wbeu reference for tbe of tbc past is but little A protest against the conversion of Her Theatre into a modern music hall need not be, however, necessarily interpreted as disparaging the qiialllv of ft really diverting which may yet find a more suitable heme ebewhere, oiiimcmiabie refinement is to be recognized in tbe 31usic Hall here commenced on 8 tUirday afternoon under the inanagement of Mr. Samuel Hayes, and during the month they are likely to conliiiue there is little doubt the spacious area will be as well filled as it was on the opening dav.

VIKGINIA DEH0C8AT8. The ot the Central Committee ColIliiK Convention.

The Y'irginia Conservative Democratic central committee have issued an calling a party convention for Aug. 4, to meet at Riclimond, and which says: a Republican triumph ia a southern commonwealth means, let the wretched record of fifteen years attest. It signifies, in a word, tbe delhrone- inent of the virtue, character, intelligence aud property of a state, and the erection on their ruins of a dynasty of profligacy, ignorance aud unvarying fruits la southern states have been social degradation, universal rob- berv. continued disorders, and the undoing, in our case, of the toilsome labor of twelve consecutive Tears. Higher, in our judgment, than anv other issue that can be presented to our people, is the preservation of their civilization and tbe maintenance of white supremacy in their government.

This is tbe life of the state first duty: all else is secondary to it. To secure it for ourselves, to transmit it to our children, is the sovereign service imposed upon us bv our time and This must be saved, whatever is lost; and lo rescue it and plant it on enduring foundations is an obliga- tiou that mounts high above the domains of party poliHes, and demands of us every Upon the question of the public debt, the committee disclaims any power or purpose to speak for the Conservative Democracy ol Y'irginia. but states historical facts, however, whei) it alleges that all previous att mpts to settle the question have proven but partially effective; that its settlement is a matter of admitted and urgent need, and the Conservative, and not tbe Republican party of is tbe oreanization by which that must be made, if it is to be definitive and at the same time just. No guarantee of a final and acceptable settlement can be afforded half so potent and effectual as the of the united Conservative YY'heti that party was united, it announced in its state convention ol 1877, that whatever of adjustment might be adopted, it should be so ordered as to add nothing to tbe burdens of the people by way of increased taxation, and doubtless that resolve will be when again it sha'l speak with a united DURANDO BY MOONLIUHT. fFrom the DiiranKo, These people apply themselves to their avocations with as much and care us r.

There is probably not a man in Durango who does not carry on his person a double-action six-shooting revolver. YVhen they oougregale every night, at the various it a matter to be wondered at, that there is so little bloodshed. As a rule YY'estcru men are not quarrelsome, but they are very tenacious of their rights, and do not like to be talked about iu a derogatary maimer. They value their own lives but little more than they do those of others, and are readv on any occasion to risk them.

YVhile the are playing aud games riinnitig, and everytbing is ill a peaceful attitude, parties may meet who have been looking loi each other, w'ilh the tacit understanding ol sbooHng on sight, and they shoot. The games are suspended, the music ceases, the uead and wounded are roughly cared for, congratulations are indulged in that the deceased liied and with his boots on, and then the carnival goes on. The moon grows pale with watching, like a wretched mother, over her icked and drmikeft sons, and sinks lo wondering if she forever gaze upon such scenes, and yet hoping to see them again in better shape. The night i- done, the is waking, an the sturdy builders of a city resiime their swav, and bring to the view ol the observer a h-appier sight.
