I'JIKI'AIUK'O I'OU A. WAKM IIKIIAT15. The democratic senators hold a caucus immediately after the adjournmuutof thu senate to-day , for the purpose of deciding upon a poiiey to bo adopted with rofor- encp to Senator Sherman's reuolutfon calling for an investigation of the alleged outrages at elections in Virginia and Mis sissippi , and also for tlio purpose of con sidering the aelcctionof di'inocrntio mem bers of the now senate committees. The session , which lasted about three hour * , was mainly dovotcd to the first of these subjects. After a full and gMioral ex- proaaion of opinion , it was decided thai party action should bo governed by cir < cumstiuicea when Sherman's retnluiiou 'lould come up for consideration the resolution merely alleged that out rages had been committed and rotori boon ilimidatrd by criminal violunco n < elections in the two southern utales , If the republican sanatore in their ro nmrka up < m the resolution should tree ! .ho alleged outrages as niccrt-ainod and _ irovod facts , and should refer to specific iota of violence mid intimidation , and ihould attempt to charge the democratic mrty with responsibility for Mich acts it would , in the opinion of the caucus , be expedient for thp democratic senators to accent tlio isstio and outer actively into the debate , shaping their cauno in accord ance with the drift of the discussion. This , it was conceded , would probably oad to a heated political controversy. If , however , the republican senators should not , directly force this saue , but if they should confmo themselves to gonural alienations of local disorders end violence and not assert that the democratic party fi'atorod and en- ouragod the spiritwhich gave rise to such disturbance , it wns decided to lot the re publicans liavo the debats mainly to .humsolvcs. The democratic member ship of the now siMiato committee on Ishories and expenditures of public [ uiuls , and increase of eoveral old stand- ug committees as provided for in the BOW cede of the sonata rule was then discussed , but the CAUCUS adjourn ed without action thereupon.
