Sn;r;ts who concocted the scheme, but who,
far plain reasons, have been all along
afrsid 10 commence practical operations.
The ouarrelsome members IN the Radi-
cal camp have all buried the Ratchet, and
ora now serenely smoking the calumet.
Thad. who still remains, without substan-
t;al opposition, the leader OF the House,
has advised that all diScordant sounds be
bpshed before the representatives go home
10 their constituents; and, as usual, he Is
obeyed without murmuring. Bingham
and Butler have forgotten ~ their angry
personalities of the past week.
The frst-claSs United States steam
fricate Minnesota will be sent TO the Medi-
terranean this summer, under command OF
Commodore Alden, of the navy, with as
many of the graduating class Of midship-
men from the Naval Academy as can be
shared from other vessels. The fortunate
middies will have q good time on that sta
ton. and will be the envy of their com
papiops who will have to be assigned TO
other vessels in need of an invoice of them.
The President still refuses to be badgered
into appointing Radicals to the most pro-
miuent positions in the gift of the Govern
ment, and the result will in all probability
be very many of them remaining vacant.
The nomination of General Frank Blair as
Minister to Austria created some surprise,
though it had been whispered about for
two DAYS past that ex-senator Foster
would not be appointed to that position.
Great interest is felt TO know whether
Blair will be confirmed or not.
AT q special election held IN George
town to-day for a member OF the Common
Council, the Radical candidate was elected
and judging from the present appearance
of The registration lists in this city, the
Republican candidates will come ont ahead
in the municipal election here next June.
1t is stated that Secretary Stanton has
been ~asSiduous in attempting to stay the
tide in favor of an adjournment.
The Republicans of both Houses OF
Congress held a aucus tonight with
reference to future political action IN the
different States. The debate thereon was
very calm neither the question oil I'M
parchment or adjournment was NEIL
toned.
A paragraph in he washington u ,b;s
respondence of the Baltimore Sun OF UNI UNI
morning, intimating that Mr.. Davis VIII
probably be released within a short time !,
is attracting considerable attention. as II
is believed to be officially inspired.
