Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. O.,

Sept. 22, 1880.
| talked last evening with a gentle
man whose Congressional service goes
back more than twenty years, and who
has been familiar with political events
-''part Of which be vas, and all Of
which he saw"-for twice that length
Of time. He says that beyond doubt
the Republican party is falling into
the hands of Grant and Coukling, and
that the combination, if successful,
means change in the form of Gov
eminent. It will be remembered that
Frank Blair said, when Grant was z
candidate for the second term, that if
then elected, Grant would never leave
the White House. Most people laugh
ed at thas. Perhaps most people do
now, but since then we have seen the
election of 1876 set aside as if no elec-
tion had ever occurred, AID have seen
manifested rapidly growing tendency
among Grants friends to bring to
some central point all the powers of
the country, Federal and State. The
effort is still being made, and is far
more serious, [ am sure, than the
"plain people" think. The intention
may not now be specially in the inter-
est Of Grant as the "comlng man. =,
though I believe it is, but i is GER
taiuiy IN the direction of another sys-
tenn Of Government. The speech of
Senator Conkling the other night vas

orally known, however, that the plan
of com promise submitted last night by
the regular Conservative COMMITTED
to that Of the Readjustcrs provides for
the formation of y mixed electoral
ticket to be made up Of five Couser-
vative electors and five Of the Read
justes' electors, the eleventh slector
to be named by the National Demo
cratic Committee or chosen by lot.
The Readjusters' Com mittee re-
manned in session until FIVE O'Clock
this morning. The greater portion of
the session was spent i'll general IN
terchausc Of views on party matters
aud expressions as to THAT Was
thought by the people of the proposed
compromise. The plan of the Con-
serya;iyc tomn.ittee, which had been
lying before the l,caajqster Conulit-
tee all night, Was not opened uutll
half-past 3 o'clock, when it was
briefly considered. Finally it was
decided to reject the plan and a sub
committee Was appointed to prepare d
reply. The ltcadjastcrs are again i'll
session discussing the matter. One
subject which is being considered is
whether the Readjusscrs shall embody
in their reply plan Of compromise of
their oRn. One plan that is known
they have discussed is to submit two
Hancock electoral tickets to the peo-
pie at the primary election somc time
in October aud that which ever ticket
shall receive the highest popular vote
that ticket shall be recognized at the
Presidential election. What action
has been taken is not yet known.
LATER R.-I'ie iicaijaster's Commit
tee have agreed upon their report. They
reject the plan proposed by the Con-
servative Committee, not out Of any
in1iSpositicu to unite the supporters
of Hancock aud English, but out of
the belief that the proposed plan is
not caiculaicd 10 a>snmpl!sh the object
sought. Yet il consideration Of the
apprehcusions which exist outside
that Il division Of the party may
result IL the loss to the Democracy of
the electoral vote Of Virginia, which
apprehensious are not shared in by
the Readjusters, they propose that
the e!catoral ticket question be settled
by q primGry election to be he!d On
the 18th Of October, at which all per-
sous shall be allowed to vote who
pledge themselves to vote for Hancock
and English. The reply will be sub
mi:ted 10 the Conservative Committee
this evening.
