Republican pot still boils, and almost every
dav some OF the bubbles burst upon th'
Presidents head, revealing delegation O.
distinguished citizens, come simply to pay
their respects to his EXcellency, but never
forget to advise him about the offices. Yes
terday Miss Van Lew fitted before his eye:
like bright meteor, and to-day disappeared
Mr.. Hayes consolcd the spirited little woman
by declaring that he does not now intend tt
appoint anybody to the place she holds unit
May, and that he would give her claims due
consideration. 1t is understood she has
gone home determined to lay hold OF the
root OF the opposition to her By Immediately
dsmissing certain employees in her office.
THE CoLLECToEsHIP FOR RICHMOND AND
PETERSBURG.
Captain John S. Wise is the most promi-
nent Democratic endorscr OF Mr.. Jetierds
for the post-officc, and eX-Mayor Kelley now
recommends Mr.. Russell for the internal
revenue collectorship at Richmond. Mr..
Murphy has considerable backing for this
office among citizens, but lacks political
help. Mr.. Russell is supported by large
number OF businessmen and endorsed by
the State Republican Committee. The OPP
ponents OF White, the present collector,
object to him principally because (they say
he is a nonresident anu non-taxpayer.
1t appears to be pretty certain that the in
cumbcnt OF the revenue colectorship at
Petersburg will be removed, and native
Yirginan appointed.
PURPOSES OF TIE ADMINISTRATIONS.
Gentlemen who profess to know the pur-
poses OF the Administration assert that
radical Republicans are making fools Of
themselves, for the acts Of the Admlnistra-
ton in the near future will make them it's
warmest friends. What terrible thing the
President has in store for lis can only be
conjectured; but it must be quite incon-
sistcnt with his past acts if the Radical e!e-
ment OF his party is to lie converted into
lovers OF Hayes. Fear that Hayes may at
any moment do some fanatical or radical
thing which conservative Democrats could
not approve operates more strongly than
ANYTHING else to deter them from giving him
their hearty support.

THE PRESIDENTS VIEWS REGARDING WADE,
BLAINE & CO.'S OPPOSITION.
President Hayes does not see how Wade,
| Blaine & Co. can give force to their oppos-
| ton. He says they could not do it by
thwarting any personal plans or prospects
| OF his own, because he had none for them
to thwart. They could not do it by defeat
ing his nominations in the Senate, because
he never would send any name to the Senate
| in whose confirmation he had any interest
| beyond that inspired by his general views
as to the good of the public service. He
did not see that they could do anything be-
yond denounce his policy in speeches.
Even il they could find majority in the
Senate opposed to the southern policy the
Senate could not undo what had been done.
It could not restore the troops to the State
houses, nor could it rehabiitate the govern
ments which have vanished as soon as the
Federal troops were withdrawn from their
support.
