WASHINGTON, Dec, 20.-Mr. Morton's S
readiness in dropping tue Mississippi ques-
ton is discovered to have been brough:
about by the certainty of a sweeping de
feat His party friends, alarmed by the
bad showing made in the senate last week,
have quietly given him to understand that
he cannot depend upon them for any more
aid in unfolding his bloody shirt. Warned
by the iukewarm spirit in which their par
ty press receives the outrage, those mem
bers of the senate outside Of the Grant
group refuse to vote as Morton directs. 1t
is known, too, that Mr. Blaine has a
following in that body, and that these men
are not minded to keep the Indianan so
conspicuously to the front for the presi-
dency as he wishes. 1t is the plan now, if
these gentlemen may be depended upon. to
destroy all Of the so-called leadership
which Morton has heretofore pretended to.
Hence, the Republican Jealousy in the SEN
ate leaves the majority of that body quite
as helpless as the inc0ngrunuS and clashine
majority of The house. Though Gen. But
Ter is at hand with his papers ard the pre-
tended complainants waiting to be heard,
the case has gone over till after the recess,
and, from the general drift Of senatorial
opinion, it is more than probable that no
more will be heard OF Mr. Mnrton's out
rage bill during the session.
