Governor Hayes we'll here and esteem him highly
nevertheless say that he Is easily led, and that
he will be controlled and directed by n coterie OF off,

their interference with his visit to President Grant,
which Is well known, havo already thrown out their

said TO have been so guaranteed by tacit
understanding whom Mr.. Morrill,. then Senator,
with fair chance OF recollection, consented

with his friends to become Secretary OF the Treasury
In tho other Judge Taft is we'll known intimate

will remain and Mr. Biainc viii throw his strength

and may dampen tho ardor of many a statesman now
making almost superhuman effort in the campaign to

sRNCE FROM THE sTUNP-THE DISTINGUISHED
SENATOR'S sENsIrIvENEss AND scRUPLEs TO
BE RELIEVED By A SPECIAL INVITATION FROM
GOVERNOR HAYES TO TAKE PART IN THE
CANVASS.
For some timc past great deal OF anxiety has been
felt among administration circles that Senator Conk-
ling might take part In tho campaign by speaking At
the principal points in the leading States Since the
recent announcement that Mr.. Conkling going TO
speak in Utica at an early day sense OF relief has
been felt by his friends, well those who crticse
him, perhaps, too harshy. No one could understand
why he had not already been prominent
among tho great speakers, and unfriendly
reasons assigned for 1t, principal among which
was that no had personally disaneced and did
not lko somo Of the company he might fall in with
the hustngs conspicuously Messrs Blaine and schurz
But apart from all this which contradicted, Mr..
Conkng, when recently here. said and showed that he
was seriously indsposed not being able to bear strong
light upon his eyes, condition OF painful disability
ana Inconvenience resulting he stated, from malaria
Tho principal republican managers are anxious
that Senator Conkling shall bo heard In
the West while making somc OF his mastcrly
and ovcrpowcring arguments. This was submitted to
him and he replied that he did not think II
sary obrude himself and thought in addition, that
he might be inexperienced In the suspicion that he
had present future ultcrior motive Of his
TO subscrve lie manifested great deicacy this point
and immovablc, adding that he did not think he
could aid materially in the effectiveness Of the West
ern campaign.
In order to obvlatc all these msgvings Of tho New
York senatcrl arrangements havc been made by lead
thout Mr. 1nu,v odo
to have Governor Hayes invite him, his
health will permit, to take part at once In the
canvass through the Western States. Communications
TO this end have been already addressed TO Governor
Hayes and other officials, which will result in the
rying oi plan to relieve Senator Conkng Of his
scnsvcness and scruples and enable Governor Hayes
to show him marked high courtesy and appreciation.
This will secure additional strength of good feeling
certain quarters and add strength to the
campaign generally, well relieve the managers Of
msevings and internal annoyance which have already
provoked somc inimical comment.
