REPUBLICAN TROUBLES.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette, writes, July 81: sex
Senator Hs1lSn's paper, this morning, says
that it is whispered that Senator Morton's
visit to Washington has second object in
view, none the less than the holding of q
quiet caucus of sone Of the most infuen-
tial leaders of the Republican party in the
West, with view to forming programme
for their guidance in treating the grange
movements now assuming such formidable
dimensions in that section of the
country" 1t appears, therefore that the
formation Of these oranges is hurting pretty
smartly. The Democrats have not flutter-
ed yet.
A Washington letter to the Baltimore Sun
outlines political scheme, of which there
has been some little talk, as follows: "Vice.
President Wilson's health will prevent his
presiding over the Senate; Senator Csrpen-
ter viii, therefore, assume his duties; but
the Senator'S time expires in March, 1875,
and he fears that his back-pay record will
be hindersnce to his reelection; he there
fore deems it best to remove his most form
liable opponent, and so advocates the ap-
pointment of Senator Howe to the Chief
Justiceship, with the idea that Gov. Wash
burn will be made Senator in his place, thus
removing one Of the most prominent caudi-
dates from his own contest"
