New ORLEANS. Feb. l7.--Tn the con.

duced, which was laid over, regulating
weights and measures.
The Committee on Style and Arrange

so many alterations and amendments, that
one member said the convention could
hardly recognize its own creation in the
constitution as reported by the committee
and he moved to separate the report, which
led to a confused discussion. 1t was finally
decided to have the constitution printed
without any changes whatever. The con

RADICAL PRESIDENTIAL GOSSIP
AND SPECUEATIONS.

Correspondence Of the Cincinnati Enquirer
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The talk among
Radical politicians here ia all Grant-ward,
and every one who does not Join in the cur
rent is snubbed, hustled whsiled down the
wind or cast overheard.
1t ia evident that the action of the Chi
cago Convention ia to be forestaled in
Grants favor, on the "hurrah" principle,
and the Presidential canvass alterward
conducted on the same system of tactics.
The recent elections in the States of New
York, Ohio and elsewhere seem to have
impressed the Republican managers here
with the idea that the people are tired and
disgusted with Radicalism. Hence the
appearance of moderation IL to be as
sumed, and the attention of the PEG
pie diverted, by captivating them with
Grant, and his supposed services to the
country. The Thad. Steveuses Gree
leys and Summers are to be pushed into
the background, and kept there. Even Mr..
Chase is TO be ignored, as is evidenced by
the lukewarmness of his Ohio friends N
official positions in this city, many Of
whom are silently deserving him. II was
the realization OF this universal ten
dency toward Grant which made old Thad
Stevens, the other day, so bitter and furious
in the Reconstruction Committee, where
he declared that the Republican party had
abandoned lie principle, and was destined
TO 90 to pieces.
As the time for holding the Chicago
Convention spproaches, the bitterness be
tween such men as Stevens and his class
who espoused the cause OF the negro for the
sake of investing him with political equal
ity, on the one side, and those who took
him uP for the sake OF the political CAPT
tai, and the Offices 10 be made ont of MIN,
on the other, develops itself with startling
intensity, and may eliminate, at least, IN
open rupture, thus seriously endangeriug
Grant, even If he shonld be nominated.

ASSERTING A NEW PLANK.

There has been suspicion, well
grounded as It now appears, that the obs
jeet sought to be accomplished through
the agency Of the Freedmens Bureau,
was not only the political but the social
equality and the amalgamation of the
white and black races in this country.
Within a short time this object has taken
such definite shape as to leave no doubt
as to the intention of the advocates OF
amalgamation From the following ar
tiele which appeared in the Washington
Express Of the 18th inst, it appears that
this revolving principle is one Of the the
cries of the new university, bearing the
name Of the Chief of the Freedmen's
Bureau, which is to be maintained by the
Radicals at the capital of the nation:
"There has been considerable talk among
Republican Congressman within the past
week regarding what they deem new
danger threatening the party, coming from
the Freedmen's Bureau. IL appears that
General Howard, at 6 meeting connected
with Howard University, has agowed him
self unequivocally in favor Of amslgama
ton, and in this he is known TO be sup
ported by considerable number of the
| officers and attaches Of the Bureau here
II has also transpired that in all the be
nevolent, educational and religious efforts
Of the Bureau, such associations in social
life as would be brought about by perfect
| blending of the races are TO be kept steadily
in view. The discovery that the whole
| influence OF the Freedmen's Bureau is now
| being thrown in that direction has very
| greatly alarmed those Republicans whose
| attention has been called 10 the fact, and
they say that 10 force any such issue now
| would affect the Presidential election more
| disastrously than the issue of negro suffrage
! in Ohio affected the election in that State
and that in some way it must he kept out
Of sight Many Republicans consider this
unexpected complication as particularly
unfortunate Just at the time when the party
is asked TO continue the Ereedmen's Bureau
another year."
Well may the Radicals feel alarmed
at these developments. They have made
the Freedmen's Bureau a power in this
country, and having thus established that
institution, the men controlling it have
determined to use it to degrade their own
race if possible. But We have confidence
in the great body Of the white people Of
this country that they will not submit
to this new phase Of Radicalism The
Radical party may be forced to defend
this new plank which Gen. Howard and
his henchmen seem determined shall be
inserted in their platform, but there are
thousands of white men acting with that
party in all the Northern and Western
States, who have no stomach for that
fight We don't wonder that the leaders
about Washington are frightened at this
new plank in their platform
