The seward-MotIey Correspondence.
WHO is M'CRACKENp

The New York Tribune of this morning saws:
George W. McCracken, of New York, Is the
man who wrote the letter to the President
about the infamous conduct of our Ministers
and Consus in Europe; OF which Mr.. johnson
spoke to Mr. Seward; of which Mr.. Seward
wrote to Mr.. Motley; of which Mr.. Motley wrote
to Mr. Seward; as 10 which the Senate inquired,
and which we present to the public to-day.
Geo.W. McCracken, OF NewYork is the man who
peeped through the key-hoe, who listened at
the crack, who was up the chimney, and who
has been dragged out from under the table by
the nose. The Senate OF the United States now
has George W. McCracken, of New York, by
that prominent feature which he has poked
about so industriously, and II the Senate should
pull it, before letting it CO. we hope that honor
able body will take Major De Boots advice. and
pull it gently, gently, gently
Who is George w. McCraCken, ofNew York
We have looked in vain for his name in the
New York, Brooklyn, and Jersey City Directories.
Nobody seems TO know him. and prob blv no.
body wants TO know him. He is apparently
the utterly obscure person" that Mr. Sumner
declared him. Indeed, it is doubtful whether
there is such person as George W. McCracken,
OF New York; for even the man vulgar enough
TO write such letter would scarcely be stupid
enough TO sign his true name. George W.
McCTacken, of New York Is, possibly, assumed
TO conceal man who, though not ashamed 10

patriotism of a man so distinguished as Mr..
Motley, and ask him for a confirmation of the

the representatives of the United States in
Europe hunkey, another vulgar, ignorant
fellow, another common drunkard 1t is sur
prising that Mr. Seward did not at once per-
Ceive that the President was insulted by such
a letter, an0 inform MIR. Johnson of the
TACT. 1t is more surprising that he should
have made it the basis of official action. When
his correspondence with Mr. Motley was
Published, It was believed that, though nothing
could excuse the tone of Mr.. Stewards letter. he
must have had some authority for supposing
that gentleman to be no gentleman and rene
gade. Yet even this presumption, this apology
for the Secretary, was untounded. George W.
McCracken, of New York, was all the authority
Mr.. Seward had. George w. McCracken, OF
New York, is the mean little mouse which has
crawled out of this mountain of scandal; aud
hereafter, we greatly tear, when Mr.. Seward
utters his prophecies of wars ending in ninety
days, the implicit faith of his cOuntrymen will
scarcely continue unless he distinctly afirms

York, who told him sO.n

| will regulate the night of meeting. We shall
! examine each OF these notifications success
| sively and in detail; we shall consider toe exact
| scope they may assume in practice, aud espe-
cially to what extent they will contribute TO the
| development Of liberty.
But one thing strikes US at once and that is
| the constant anxiety OF the Emperor to place
our institutions in unison with public opinion,
and bis desire to listen at the same time to the
voice of experience and that of the country.
In presence of this homage rendered TO pro-
gress, we are convinced that ameliorations
even the most opportune, are never dednitive.
Progress is by It's very nature successive and
daily, like experience. And that Is why the
nation, in receiving with satisfaction what it
obtains to-day, and confident in the Inevitable
development of its destinies, will always Justly
expect that the empire and liberty have not
attained their ne Plus ultra.
From the Gazette de France, January D.
The rumors which had been current lately
were, unhappIly, well founded. The Emperor
wthdraWs from the Legislative body the right
TO draw up an address in reply to the speech,
and the deputies of the nation will no longer
present in body the wishes and complaints of
their constituents. The Emperor will speak of
the general affairs OF the State, and the Senators
and Deputies will listen in silence. During six
years it has been believed (from 1860 TO 1867
that 1t was the duty of a Deputy to clearly and
respectfully express the opinions of those who
had returned him on the progress of affairs, at
the opening of the Chambers. What was con
sidered good in 1860 seems Objectionable In 1867
We repeat it, we are profoundly afflicted at the
suppression OF the address, for which nothing
will compensate; we do not even except the
right OF Interpolation, such as it is established
-Four bureaus out of nine are a serious him
drance,. and which in practice will show all that
liberty loses by the abolition OF the right of
address. What until now had made us doubt
the correctness of the rumOrs as to the reform
on this point is that, in our estimation the legis-
lation under which the elections of 1863 were
made ought to be maintained until the expira-
ton OF the period Tor which the deputies were
returned. 1t seems TO us that there was an inti-
mate relation between the deputy's mission and
the political conditions under which he was 10
exercise his functions. On that point we be-
lieve we faithfully express the sentiments of the
country, which certainly expected to see its
deputies retain until 1869 the prerOgatlves they
possessed in 1868, when they were named. The
other reforms announced are not sufficiently
defined for US to prOr ounce on their liberalism
before knowing the laws which will regulate
them,

How Patti Learns an Opera.

The Vogue PoriSienne gives the following de-
tails of the system by which Patti learns
new opera. Her bIother-in-law is her master.
Wherever she resides piano is always placed
in room next to her private apartment, so
that every note played on 1t can be heard be
her. When a new pant is to be learnt by her,
her brother-in- law. without warning her before
hand, plays whatever air he thinks likely to
please her; and as though he were only play
ing for his own amusement, recOmmences the
same air three or tour times. Adellna's voice
is soon heard in the next room, as it were
echorng the mott. The Professor continues,
and perhaps sings the tenor, while he plays
soprano on the piano. This seldom lasts many
minutes. The door of the drawing-room is
opened by Patti, singing all the while; she
rakes her brotber-n-aw's place at the piano
and now, Thoroughly excited, studies the part
with all the ardor of her artist nature In two
days Adehna knows the music as well as the
libretto of a whole opera, and performs her
part in it at the Itaieus within week Of
having first received the score, with what tri-
umphant success need not relate.

last year with Knight of the Crescent HIS lord
sup won the Oaks no less than three times
namely, in 1921 with Augusta, in 1929 with
Sfeen Mantle, and in 1882 with Galata. In 1852
ne ne had almost uneXampled success, having won
the Two Thousand Gnineas, the Great Yorkshire
stakes, and the Great st. Leger. He hal won
Two Thousand two years In succession-lS29
and 1880, as well as in 1862 above mentioned
dc won the Ascot Cup in 1888, the GoodWOOd
Stakes in l847, and many other races OF less i'm

breaking up his extensive stud; aud a portion
was sold by Mr.. TaTtersall, when the late Lord
Londesborough became the purchaser of the
