From Our Spccia! Correspondent ID l$5g II
WASHINGTON, January 20.-There were
plenty Of men in Washington to-day who
thought Themselves politicians d enough to

he went to that dinner Of the Common.
wealth Club for purpose, and that the
dinner vas gotten up at his instance by his
political !. friends who know and applaud
bis ambitions. It lis openly stated = that
Speaker Carlisle is a candidate for the,
Presidential eomination, and that he
thinks he will be nominated. It is be-
lieved that. he will yet bo made United
States Senator, and that following that
second boom in quick succession will
come bis nomination for the Preadency,
This is tho theory Of that clafs Of politicians
who Z believe in sequeuces-who believe
that; two processes guarantees "a third in
quick succession II there is the least jop.
portunity. ..7s .liy-5zE
There is no doubt that Speaker Carlisle
is really desirous Of making friends at
Philadelphia. Where bis tariff principles arc
unpopular. Neither lis TIA doubt that he
isvery often mentioned III connection with
the Presidency; but am told by one oil his
most intimate Kentucky friends tha. be
haa no intention whatever Of becoming a

In iron the most conspicuous advance
has been made. Strangely enough this
does not reflect itself fully from Philadel-

Chicago, Cleveland, Louisville, and to soms
extent at Cincinnati. AT New York the
demand for pig has gained materially. The
Thomas. company has sold 5000 tons for
season delivery within two weeks. Prices
are iitmer and the demand more active.
Steel rails, the improvement in which was
first noticed by this journal one week AGO,
may be said to have gained 81 90 Der
ton, for no orders can be placed le,e ex-

Onaen and Heir Apparent.

A correspondent of the Boston Her
aid thinks that the time has come for
Queen Victoria to sbdicate in favor of
the Prince Of Wales. "She is, and has
been" he says, ''for many years only a
figurehead to the nation, while he does
all the work, goes among the people,
and interests himself in public affairs,
showing great public spirit and liberal
views on all occasions. As a soldier, as
a huntsman, IS royal parsonage, and
as true-hearted gentleman and kind.
generous man, the Prince of Wales has
to-day no superior in all Great Britain.
My views of him are now completely re-
yolutionized, for / see him everywhere
| go, mingling with the people, and
even lately prowling among the slums
in order to improve the condition of the
wretched London poor. Deeds, not
words, tell in mans life record, and
the preiudices which once existed re-
garding him are being battered down,
and that, too, by his own transformations
conduct And his position in the coun-
try is rather trying when one reflects
ON it. For he is not absolute King,
while he has to act King practically, as
it is impossible for him to shine only
as quiet English gentleman. "
