The speech Of Post Master General

theme oil the hour at Washington. Tie
Missouri RadicaIs remaining here are
denouncing i. most bitterly. Wilson
did the same in a speech At the Union
League rooms last night, while on other
hands, it il asserted that the speech is
the opening to Al effort to make General
Frank Blair speaker Of the next lionse.
OF course every twist aud turn ia given
to the tps ech BY men representing every
phase OF politics, aud whate er may be
the result, it is nevertheless a fact that
it has served the purpose of creating
much ercitsmenf dD,ong serer0f Wash

Congress.
The correspondent OF the Ecsning
| Post makes this comment
Senator Wilson delivered al interest
ing address before the Loyal League of
this ehy las. evening. HIS text was
Postmaster Biair's Rockville speech and
a defense of anti. siireyy rspubttc0nssn'
The speech was spirited and little bel
ligercbt, but was very watmly received.
The Senator is indignant at the Pest
master Generals course-not because
be holds "conserya,ive" views on the
slavery question, but becau,e he aces mt
to attack distinguished Republican
Senai or aud two Of his brethren in the
Cabinet. Mr.. Wilson evidently ap-
proves Of the views OF his colleague in
the Senate as pnt forth ia his recent
elaborate article in the atlantic Month
W
IL is a curious tact that when MIR.
Lincoln came to Wash ng.on and was
deciding who should be his Postmaster
General, Seoators Sumner and Wilson
urged Mr.. Blai.'s claims upon the Pres
ideEt, aud regarded him as being a
sound republican. Mr.. Blair seems 10
have somewhat changed his views on
some subjects since then, as Of course he
had perfect right TO DO. The tact,
however, that the men he is now at
tackipg were principally instrumental in
giving him his present position will not
be easily forgotten. The controversy
does not involve any personal feeling
MessIs. Blair, Chase, Stanton, Sumner
and Wilson are on intimate social terms
with each other. II Is simply q contro-
rersy respecting tie principles ,rhich
shall az 'e,he the Republican oryon'ao-
ton "a tie nsat Pres,dent,at campaign,
and ioh,ch are to guide tie 90vernntea
in its first settlement OF the questions
arising from The war and slavery.
