her The Office of Wee President is not, however,
considered very influential one in the bestowal
OF government patronage, as has, indeed, been
proved In past times, except in the case of Mr.
Van Bursn II Is generally thought sort OF "nns
holes" affair in the political game which it 10 DIFF
ficult tor an ambitious or aspiring man to get out
OF. Mr.. Fillmore, as ls well known, Is an amlable
man, OF tine talents and popular manners; but he
mas never, believe, been noted as a tactlcian in
politics. He ID, besides, rather OF the conservative
than of the progressive section of the wing party,
and, ON that account, John Young was preferred
to him, i'll 1876, as the wing candidate for Cover
nsr and, through the iDflue nee of Messrs Sc ward
Weed, Greeley, and others, of the progressive
school, received the nomination at that time.
These facts explain why the interests of the
New York clique, and those of Governor Seward,
now United States Senator, are connected. As
have before remarked, the ramiicatiOns of the New
York clique are very extensive, having their raml-
hcations In various quarters OF the Union, from
Maine to Georgia, and tneIr operations are carried
on with such skill and secrecy, that II Is my belief
1t will be out OF the power Of Old lack and his
cabinet TO avoid them, Notwithstanding the appa-
rent disappointment OF the clique IN the present
construction OF the cabinet.
The disappointed office seekers, not connected
with the Clique referred TO, are returning home in
gre at numbers each "with flea in his ear" but
their places supplied by others who are daily
arriving, most OF them to share q similar fate, in
all probability. The State Of Ono furnishes a
large quota OF those who willing to serve their
