Poll teal Rurnors.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican airs some
rumors which are in circulation in Wash
ington-namely
The President is preparing to transfer
the Offices in Connecticut from the Repub-
licans to the Democrats.
The President fears the Grant move
ment. SEWARD is supposed to be for
GRANT, and RANDALL is openly so. Nc
CuLLocE said recently to Republican,
Sc You can't elect GRANT unless you drop
your negro suffrage" This we regard as
certain. HANCOCK or SHERMANwould easily
beat GRANT if hs should run upon that
platform. SEWARD is said to be appre-
hensive Of defeat from this cause, and has
said that the Radicals won't be satisfied
till they have put GRANT upon platform
that will "tumble with him to defeat"
A bill to establish negro suffrage in the
States would fail. TRUMBULL, CoNKLING,
FREL1NGHYsEN, and others, do not believe
that Congress has the power to pass such
/ an act.
BUTLER claims that majority of the
House of Representatives are with him
upon the greenback question, but lack the
courage to ayow their sentiments.
