The threatened rupture between
acting President Hayes and the
extreme radical republicans, has
taken place. Senator Conkling,
of New York, who will never get
over his disappointment ut his
failure to receive the last republi-
can nomination for the presidency,
leads the radical assault on Hayes;
but the latter says he intends to
run the government. for the gen.
eral good, and so far manifests
more nerve in his administration
than he was generally supposed to
possess.
