TEE VAN WICK AFTAIR.-The Republican
party press are busy with efforts to make 1t appear
that the assault upon Mr. Van wyck, of the
House, on Friday night last, was the result OF
some conspiracy against him on political account
That's call leather and Prunella," the distant
public may rest assured ont IL the affair oc.

Will be remembered that he confxsses to have
been Knocked 30 senseless as that be did not re-
cover the use OF his wits for perhaps hour after
the attack was made on him, the chances are ten
to one that the assailants were portion OF the
rowdy gang known as "Rams," who were such
terror to the community in the last and proceed
Ing municipal elections times. For more than a
year past perhaps dozen men have been coca.
siOnally knocked down and robbed In the same
vicinity, with apparent IMMUNITY. by parties sup
posed TO be Of that rowdy gang, and under cir
cumstances much like those narrated by Mr.. Van
Wyck. We have published account upon ac-
count OF such occurrences there, which have not
attracted public attention, the parties assailed
were humble citizens rather than member, of
Congress.

CAsIHET MAKISs-Public men representing
various interests In the Republican party, are
now evidently pressing their views Of the fitness
Of things in making up the Cabinet upon the
President elect, with great earnestness. He il,
however, taking their attentions to the matter
very coolly and quietly, not being moved in the
alshtest degree from the state Of equanimity that
has marked bis bearing since arriving here on
the day before yesterday. The programme that
In certainly here regarded a. being most likely to
be the one finally determined on, is as follows
Viz: State, SIR. Seward; Treasury, Mr. Cam.
eron; War. Mr.. Montgomery Blair; Interior, Mr.
Welles; Navy, Mr.. Summers; Post Once, Mr.
Cslfax; Attorney General, Mr.. Bates II will be
perceived that all the interests in the Republican
party are duly represented In this cast, while
there can Be no doubt that 1t may be harno.
nious one. We feel very sure that Mr. sammer,
has not been consulted in the matter, and also
that his acceptancs Of position In Mr. Lincoln,
council, II he will under any circumstances con.
sent again to enter public life, will depend wholly
upon the nnal satisfactory disposition Of the sub
ject matter now before the Peace Convention.

DIssRuSTLED.-The Baltimore Sun Is terribly
disgruntled over Mr.. Lincoln's sudden appear
ance In Washington. To such extent Is 1t en-.
ragged al his failure to follow out the Baltimore
portion Of his original programme for the journey
As that 1t this morning vilIiies him without stint
for departing from it. We have rarely read more
senseless, virulsnt and filthy abuse than 1t heaps
on his head on that account Such assaults must
recol and ipjure their authors only not the object
at which they may be aimed. The Exchange,
too, appears bitten by the suns mania. The
Truth Is, those journals realize that a con-
siderable portion of the country will believe
that be avoided Baltimore in daylight, because he
had reason to aPPrehend that its mob had been
prepared to insult him grossly, under circum-
stances In which he would have been compelled
70 put up with such an indignity.
While we do not believe that such an occur
renee would have taken place there, the tone of
The sss ard Ezshangs this morning will 20 far

those journals believe that there exists fair reasons
Tor tie public TO conclude that Baltimore is not
whit better governed now, than under It's late
notable rowdy regime.

AN ALLEeEp ROUND RosrS.--It was insisted
around the Capitol this forenoon that anal effort
to keep Mr.. Seward out of the cabinet was es-
sayed yesterday, in the presentation to Mr. Lincoln
in the shape of a sort OF round robin against his
appointment, signed by nearly all Senators and
Representatives known as vehement anti -compro-
mise men. We doubt the truth Of the story In
its length aud bresdth, but feel very sure that
Mr.. L. has been beseeched and threatened by
turns since arriving here, TO accomplish that end
The truth il, the contemporaries Republican
party leaders are insisting vehemently on forcing
their candidates and policy upon the President
elect. The indications certain are that on Monday
next they will realize that they have accomplished
nothing likely to connne the support accorded to
the new Administration, simply to the ultra anti
slavery men Of the Republican party organization
that being the drift of their abors, though they
fail 10 comprehend the fact.

TIE QuEsTIoS VIRTUALLY SETTLED Ellie
where In to-day's Star the reader will find q
special dispatch from the American Of this morn
ing, briefly summing up the important point In
the action Of the Pesce Convention on Saturday
We adopt It instead Of publishing summary Of
our own, as Il 10 entirely correct.
The emily question upon which there has been
serious difference Is concerning slavery In the u
e. Territories; and up to Saturday no vote had
been taken from which positive conclusion with
reference to the exact terms that would be finally
settled upon for disposing Of that had been taken,
though Il was evident that a majority would
eventually agree upon something very near akin
to the Guthrie proposition.
The voting on Saturday rendered II plain that
what 10 known as the Franklin version Of that
1.-THE Guthrie) proposition is the one that Is to be
adopted; the vote for Il being three to one. This
proposition Is. simply, that Of Mr.. Guthrie, d.
vested of Its verbiage. II 10 understood that
while II Is acceptable TO Messrs Rives and Sum-
mers, Of the Virginia delegation, Messrs. Tyler
and Seldom are opposed to 1t, and that Mr.. Brock
enbrough has not yet taken ground upon It. We
have not expected that the Convention would
adopt anything that Messrs. Tyler and Seldom
would vote for, their pathies notoriously
with the cause of secession. IL the majority of
the Virginia delegation vote against IL, we appre-
bend they will stand alone (of the border slave
holding states) with the anti compromise Repub-
lican party delegations. We feel assured that the
Virginia convention now in session in Richmond
will frankly and cordially accept it, however;
which will divest the opposition Of a majority
Of the States delegation to it Of ali importance
a matter Of course.
There still remain many propositions of amend.
ment to be voted upon, which may, with the con.
sequent numerous ten minutes speeches, pretract
the labors Of the Convention until some time to-
morrow. However that may be, the public may
rest assured, we apPrehend, that the threatening
cloud is thus rapidly passing of the horizon Of
the country's future.
