Gated report at a council of politicians held al
Bedford Springs not long ago, at whicn Yam

the resolution was there agreed upon anu MT
O. J. Dickey agreed to offer it In the Committee on

ia we'll known however that oil the leading PennsSl-
yania politicians who are inside OF the great uoni"an

treatment OF them They think that he does not show

in 1872 that service being in their opinion nothing less
than rejecting him for II they had not beaten buo

November Grant ought TO show them special consider

appears TO take q pleasure in disregardng their
wishes and recommendations, and has more thah once
snubbed them IN a manner almost offensive. Capihes

better judges OF terrapin than OF polihcs-whose

had something do with the scheme concoced at beu

when you come look for other motives besides grat
ying natural desire to punish him for his neglect you
are somewhat in the dark Undoubtedly Cameron has
plans in relation to the action OF inc heAI
Republican Convention which are best fOrwardeu
by pricking the third-tern bubble thuS early
but the shrewd old man keeps his own secrets
and does not tell them TO every interviewer

il certain. Last Winter he believed to have made
an alliance with Conkling but since then the Newfork
Senator has gone apparently into political decline
Does he mean Bainei We shall see.
