The Visit of iho Queen of England to the Emperor of VraiK-e nt ChinfillinriU (tie London Telegraph, April 4.) Yesterday her Majesty the tiueen, accompanied Prince Leopold and attended by the Duohesa of liurghe, tuo Marchioness of Ely and Lord Charles Fitzroy, vlalted the Emperor Napoleon and tne French imperial family at Chisel hur at. Her Majesty and sulto left Windsor Castle shortly beforo three and were driven to the Windsor station of (he Southwestern Hallway, where was waiting a train consisting of the royal carriage belonging to the Southwestern Company, one saloon carnage, two first class carriages and two breaks. At the station the Queen was received by Sir Edward Watiln, chairman of the Southeastern Railway Company; Mr.

bo rail, the general manager; Mr. C. V. Walker, tho telegraph superintendent, who acocmpunled the royul train to Its destination; Mr. W.

Williams and Mr. Jacomb, of the Southwestern line. The royal train was driven at exproes speed through Staines, Twickenham, Richmond and Ciapliain Junction to Waterloo, and there, passing through the station without stopping, the train ran on to the Charing cross line of the Southeastern Company, continuing the Journey via bondon bridge and New cross to chiselhurst, which was reached a few miuutefl before four o'clock. Mere a considerable number of spectators had assembled. Beyond keening the platform of the station entirely clear, and laying down a orimson cloth through the booking ofllce, no special preparations had been made? the visit boing considered strictly private.

A lorce of the locai division of police, fender Captain Baynea, the dis.net superintendent, and twenty men of the A reserve, under inspector ball ird, had an easy task in marshalling the expectant assembly, which Ha none of the rough town element in its composition, a quarter of an hour before the arrival of the Queen a special train dashed through tne station at the rate of fifty miles an honr, convoying the Princess lioulso and the Marquis of Lorn ou their way to Dover, en route for the continent. The pace was so rapid that even those who knew whom tne carriages contaiued wore unable to distinguish the royal lady and her husband. A few minutes before four o'clock tho Queen's train glided Into the llltlc station at Chlselhurst, amid the cheers of those who were assembled to witness its arrival. On alighting, her Majesty was received by blr EAtvard watklu, Mr. Eborail, Mr.

Watlcin, tne locomotive superintendent, and Mr. Lord, the courteous station master. Passing through the booking olfice her Majesty recognized the Viscountets woldon, a lady waiting to the princess of Wales, who resides in tho neighborhood, and cordially shook hands with her. A travelling carriage, drawn by four handsome grays, with outriders, had come down by road from the royal mews at Buckingham Palace, and was in watting. This carriage her Majesty and anite entered, and amid the continued cheers of the spectators, which were graciously acknowledged, drove out of the stutlon and ap the bill to Camden House? receiving cordial salutations from some thousands of persons wno lined the road on either side.

At the main entrance of Camden House her Majesty was received by the Emperor, tho Empress and the Prince imperial, who, with their suite, were awaiting their august visitor. The royal party were then ushered into the chief saloon, where her Majesty remained in conversation with the Imperial family for more than hair an hour. Returning to tne statioii, the royal tram was drawn up at the platlorm, with a powerful engine of the Southeastern Railway Comp my attached, under the charge of Mr. VVittkius. who drove on tho return to Windsor; and amid fresh bursts of cheering tne train le tho platform about ten minutes to nve o'clock.

i'ne return Journey to Windsor was accomplished in a few minutes under the hour. At. every point' along the route, and especially through the metrjpolitan district, wherever a sight of the royal t. aln could bo obtained, crowds or peopJe collected, who cheered lustily as it sped rapidly on its way to Windsor. Since his arrival nt Chiselhurst, the Emperor Nnfioleon has improved In health, and tho favorable inpresslon has deepened whloh he produced ou the residents whun he arrived.

RAMBLING AMONG TUB MS.

A Herald Correspondent's Adventures in Montmartre. Interviewing the Cutthroat Republicans Under Difficulties. VISIT TO ITHE GARDEN OF DEATH. WHAT WAS SEEN AND HEARD THERE, Paris, March 29, 1871. Yesterday I Interviewed the precious company or republicans that murdered Qenerals Thomas and Lecorate, or, as they Botten It to themselves In a horrible phrase, made thoso gentlemen "pass the ordeal of arms." This interview took place at the scene of the murder.

It was In some degree Involuntary on my part, or rather It was an unforeseen consequence or an imprudent attempt to visit the famous "garden." Furnished with a lataaer passer, signed and soaled at the headquarters of the lnsurgeut commander of the National Guard, I climbed the height of Montmartre In company with a friend. It Is a scoundrelly quarter of the town? not merely poor, but vlllanouB. We had neglected to make ourselves look like blackguards or cutthroats before starting, for which reason wc were observed for strangers on the instant and were received all along the war with scow Hug looks. Nobody spoke to us, however, or put the least impediment in the way of our ascent. At tna highest part of the hill wo oame upon the Hue des Hosiers.

It is a narrow, crooked street, 400 or 600 yards in its extreme length. It contains Just twenty-two houses? No. 22 belag at the corner of the street by which It must be reached. We had, therefore, to go nearly the whole length of the street to reach No. 0.

As we approached it we saw a rough crowd in the now disgraceful uniform of the National Guards standing in the street, and a moment later saw that they were in front of No. 6, aud that it was the post or headquarters of their force in that vicinity. This was not an agreeable surprise. We had heard and believed that the lusurreotlon, finding no foe to oppose it in the city, had abandoned its first position. We went forward, however, and presented ourselves at the entrance of No.

6, a cochbre surrounded by a crowd of ill looking fellows. We were stop pel at the entrance and wo asked for the captain. Be came and we showed the laisser paster of his commander. He scarcely troubled himself to look at It, but with a true revolutionary contempt for any authority but such as he chose to respect, informed us it was lnsuillclent. We could not visit the garden, therefore, and as we did not find ourselves in very agreeable company the next thing was to get down the hill again.

There Is a universal weakness in regard "to returning the same way," so we chose to push on through the street, expecting to find a way down at the other end. At the other end we came upon an abrupt descent, at the top of which was a barricade, and the man on guard would not let us pass. Here also we would have shown our laisser passer, in the hope that It was at least good to let us go down the hill we had fouud it so easy to got up; but we had been followed by a man from the crowd about the headquarters, who rushed forward rtonounoina uo for th? VQry at tempt to ShOW again a pass that had been once declared insufficient. In the heat of his denunciation bo seized the pass from the bands of the soldier who held lc, tore It to pieces aud scattered the pieces to the wind. In all this war that is the first specimen I have seen of the celebrated fiirta francese.

He had his gun slang loosely on his arm the strap, and wad under the influence either of a very exalted of patriotism or or a great deal of bad brandy. Our position was not comfortable. We were in the midst of men capahle of any violence, within fifty yards oi tue very spot at which two most atrocious murders lud been committed within a lew days by such mcu as were all about us, and lite llrtle ploce of paper upon which we hail trusted was destroyed, while the man who had already begun his attentions to us by that act of violence, not amenable in tho least degree to reason, denounced u.i as spios and seemed determined to hound lits lellows on to our destruction, as ir the scent of ttie Fcarcely dried blood were still in his nostrils. We tiled as quiety as wo might to return and leavo the neighborhood by the way we came. In doing this we bad to puss through the ugly looking crowd lu front of No.

0, and our self-constituted attendant followed us. We had goue but a few steps beyond tlic group when this man had so far gained tuo countcnanco of the others Dial he became bold enowrh to stand in the way and stop us altogether, lie was Uie exponent of tne popular will lu this great republic, and we returned with him to the post in unit latal No. o. This tuuo it was easy to get lu. We crossed a little courtyard and were taken into the room in which Thomas, and Lecouue rnssed the last miserable moments before the rnuruer.

Hero wo were confronted by mo captain who had a row moments before declared onr pass worthless and by some other officers, one among them having advantage of being reasoning human creature, and wo were surrounded on ovory side by the horrible faces of the brutalized crowd. One man, however, controlled and commanded all the rest. It was neither one of the officers. It was simply the most violent In the party. It was the man who had destroyed our pass.

Here we were, therefore, face to face with a band of wretches whom it was impossible to restrain In auy whim of fury that might suddenly seize trim and whom one of their number was doing his utmost to excite to the last act of violenco that gives tne taste of blood. We were able not only to see the room, but to experience little or what Thomas and Lecomte felt when they were in it. We got out of this company by the cooler man In the number proposing to take us "bciore the committee." As the committee was not 111 Montmartre it wus not so wild as It might have been, and we were set rree. To-uay procured another lalsser paster from General BMimt, who assured me that ne would supply mo with them a9 often as they were torn no by Ills men, and availing myself or tue company of three illcers of the Sixtv-llrst battalion 1 osccnded Montmartre unco more. Thus armed and defended I ielt sure of success, and this tlmo I was nut mistaken.

We took a very circuitous route to get up, my giving as reason that we would by that a good many ugly sentinels, we passed through a number of narrow, winding, crooked, climbing streets, somo of them half full of usiics and garbage and tilth, overhung by dark, smoky, dirty, shameless masses of brick and mortar in the form ot nouses, inhabited by multitudes of human beings, swarming with lile, like aut mils. Mounting long fllgnts of steep stone steps, that have been worn away by i he retreating footsteps of aues. until at last we arrived In ironc or the little old church I had seen the dty before, ami pa-scd into the Kuo des Hosiers. Tlio scutiuol Here looked at me closely, as though saying to himself, "I'll nab you when you try lo got out." They let everybody in that looks suspicious, lor tnc pleasure or nabbing tbera Just when they iniuk they are out of dauber. Arriving at No.

0 mv lawser passer was examined by ilie officer In couiman a verv different sort of man from the stupid looking fellow who received mo yesterday. He was very polite and gave iuo permission to visit every plate of Interest in Montmartre, Including mo fatal garden where Generals Thomas and Lecomte met their late. Th.s 1 naturally determined to visit (list, and, passing tnroiuh a long, dreary, dirty stone corridor, I opened a door ami round uiyseii upon the scene ot the tragic event. Afltplaco for such a crime. A garden about a leet long uiid nlty wide, running oack from the house to the verge ol the descent, surrounded on all sides walls ten leet high, except on the buck, where uu iron piked leuce or the same height opens a vista to the ulaln aud village ot SI.

Denis and the heights Montmorency beyond. The garden was half grown up with rauk weeds, wnich nave been trammed down bytiio luriom mob that rushed in aud took possession or It to perpetrate their rnad net or vengeance. At the lilt, us you euter, about Unit way dowu tho garden, is a rude cross, scratched upon (he wall, and the name Clement Thomas written over 11, marking the spot wuere tho unhappy general stood. The wall around the cross is honeycombed wltti bullet holes, somo or which aro two or three Inches deep, but status or trtood which covered it have been removed. Ten leet lurther on is another cross and more bnliet holes, showing where Lecomte fell, and a binall peach tree Is trainee against the wall, with one broken, shattered limb, as if mourning over the where a brave mau died.

Tno murderers stood about the middle of tho garden, at the distance of twenty leet from their victim. 'iuoso who saw thein lruui a neighboring window overlooking the garden fay that General Thomas threw up his arms wiin shot and fell dead with aery tliey will' never forgot, ijecomte made a desperate attempt to escape by asmall gate In iron railing at ihe oack end of the garden, but was overtaken and brought back by muse human tigers. II then folded tils arris and laced them boldly and looked upon rtto loaded muskets that were pointed at hts breast out ilinehing, until hit also toll dead, pierced by a doz.cn balls. At tno right baud side, near tho oilier end, under some lime is the hall tilled grave where they wore first burled. It, their murderers burled them In one wldo grave together unmodiuiclv alter the i'he Tt'ue; 'ml 'a tho itigiit gu order or rived from somewhere commanding the bodies to be transported to St.

Vincent's Cemetery, which In situated on the north Hide of Montmartre. this waa done about two o'clock on the morning of the 19th, the day after the tragedy, and their bodies still remain there. Near this now empty grave in the ffmlen is an artistic sketch on the wall of a gallows, with a man hanging in it and under It the I TROCHU, LE JESUITS BRETON. Speaking of the murder to one of rhe guards. who lor anything 1 know might have had a hand in It, he said? "Ah, si nous avlons falre passer Vlnov aussi, quel plalsiri" I walked down to the Iron railing at the back end of the garden and looked down upon the smiling country spread out before me.

It was a beautiful day. Off lu the dlsiauce were the heights of Montmorency, with Its village shining white In the suulight, the woods above lust commeuclng to turn green with the llrst touch 01 spring nearer the town of Sr. Denis, Its great cathedral rising high above the surrounuing country, while far down the long straight road leading to It the Prussian sentries might De seen slowly pacing to and fro, their polished casques glistening like mirrors in the bright aunshlne. And I thought if they had only known what was going on In this garden that day and had taken It into their heads to throw a shell or two luto the crowd of yelling, nowllng devils at the moment they were about to fire upon Thomas, it would havo been an outrage very apropos. Looking around again upon the garden it is scarcely possible to realize It all.

T.iat savage mob of wild beasts rushing In, bearlug their prisoners if with them, shouting, yelling, howling like demons. The cries of rage, the trampling, the couruslon, the howls or exultation; the fiendish, devilish, bloodthirsty visages of the murderers, the pale but determined mces of the victims; the forming a circle around them; the sudden slieuce; the order 10 lire; the hard, sharp, pluuglug report of tho musketj; tho desperate attempt to escape of one of them, his capture and murder? it is all terrible. And then tho hurried bun the disinterment in the gloom of the nlgnt. the funeral corti-go, stealing through the dark and silent streets to the graveyard, the bloody corpses, the descent Into the dark, deep vault, with only a tallow candle, make the trloom more It is all silent enough now. The garden is scarcely ever visited, and the military post that was In the house has been removed to another quarter.

A sort ot melancholy desolation hangs aoout the place, contrasting rorclbly with tho wild scene of violence that took piaco there such a short time ago. Already the curse that will hang over tho place for years is bcgluiitng to work. Even tho lew trees that are there seem drooping, and the withered leaves that rustle lu the wind Beein grieving, "if aught inanimate e'er grieves." I afterwards visited tno stone tomb in St. Vincent's Cemetery, where the bodies are still lying. It la a large, square, stone vault, covered with a simple slab, and at its head were two beautilul oouquets of spring flowers.

The sexton told me that the bodies are lying there still in the same clothes they wore on the day of the murder, bloody and ghastly as they came from the other grave. AMY INTELLIGENCE.

A Demooratio and a Bepablican Chairman Presiding at the Same Time? The City Under Two Governments. The troubles arising from the election riot In the Eighth wara of Paterson soem to be just commencluff.

It will be remembered that, wnile counting the vote, a mob rushed Id, took possesion of tho ballot box and strewed the over the floor. Accordingly no returns were received from tnis ward, and the question arose if the ward should remain for the year without representation or a new election be ordered. The election not counting In the Eighth ward resulted in a Board of Aldermen of fifteen members, consisting eight republicans and seven democrats? ono oi the Eighth ward aldermen holding over. There aroso also a question whether eight could be considered a quorum, the charter requiring that there Bhou.d a majority of the Board, and furthermore providing that the Board should consist of sixteen membeis. The democrats SUBMITTED THE DIFFICULTY to ex-Chancellor Williamson and to Cortlandt Parker for their written opinions, which were given to tho efTcct that a leirai majority of vhe Common Council must bo nine, an that Alderman Kelly, of tlio Eighth ward, whose term expired, should retain his seat until his sucoessor was duly elected and had qualified.

Ibo democrats accordingly bold a caucus yesterday alternoon aud decided to maintain thcirpoflitlonm accordance with the opinions referred to. This would give them eight mombers, and tho Boaid would bo EVENLY DIVIDED BETWEEN BOTH PARTIES.

THE CUSTOM HOUSE. Installation of- the Sew Naval Officer and Appraiser? What the Think? Kciirn of Decapitation. At twelve o'clock yesterday Mr. A. n.

Ltflla, tho recently appointed Naval Officer of the port, stepped iato the sanctum or Mr. Moses II. Orlnnell, in the Custom House, and shook hands with that good-nttmored old gentleman. Having last week with Mr. Latlln to tarn over tho papers aud documoou of the oflleo to bim at twelve yesterday, Mr.

Orlnnell was fully prepared. MR. URINNBU. AND THE CLBKKS. Before the arrival of the new officer Mr.

Orlnnell was waited upon by the clerks, headod by Mr. J. J. Coach, who rnado the following Mr. Grinnbll? The clerks here assembled to bid you adieu havo selected me to convoy you their warmest expressions of regard.

To us you have ever acted In a manner that at onoo assured us that In you wo had a firm friend. In rhe reorganization of this oillce our relations have been peculiar, and I trust that our duties have boon discharged In manner that meets your approval. It is our desire that you carry with you our deepest leellngs of resect and regard, and we hope that you will thiuk of us as we do of ou. Mr. Ghiknbu.

was greatly moved, and replied as Gbntlbmen? I own It is with regret that I part from you. ltegret, because our relations have beeu of tho 1'iunaautest character, and tho zeal aud aoiiity wiucu has marked your OOOdOOt has won my ad in Ira Hon. 1 thank you for this expression of regard, and I Khali say to my successor that you huve performed the respective duties of your ottlco with ildeilty. I hope time you all may enjoy tho prosperity you deserve and daily earn, aud that your course in llio may be as to-day, ought and clear, with 110 dark cloud In tho sky. On the arrival of Mr.

LaiUn the usual official com-' plimcnts were exchanged between tbo exuberant "in" ana the philosophical "out," and tnen the lat. ter put on bis hat, and, bowing right and left, shook tho dust ol tho Custom House from hla feet and lelt. Ho was seen turning tiie corner or Nassau street shortly alter, with an clastic step aud au eiatou look, ami headuiz for home. After his departure Mr. Lafllu threw hlmsulf into tho yet wurm seat of the lato incumbent of tue r.c; and fell to work at once, engaging with great spirit an anecdotal ami conversational country visitor.

At tho onclusion of "tho mornlug hour' Mr. Laflln got the clerks luto committee ok thk whole and talked to thum a good deal. Among other things he told them how glad he was to see thetn. In the absence of collector Me.ruhy, who was unavoidably detained at Long Krancti, Mr. Terwilligor, the Deputy Collector, made Mr.

Lailln swear a-i all naval officers havo sworn since we owned a Custom House. Everybody seemed pleased when the fuss was over except the olerks. Thev, poor fellows, fin tliolr lingers through their hair, spattered ink on their blurt fronts aud looked considerably "oft (political) color." As long as Mr. Orinnell remained they were suro of retaining their placea, as they understand their business, were attentive to tueir duties and industrious; but now tlicy know uot WUAT A DAT MAY BItTNO FOPTH. Most of them firmly believe that It will bring forth a horde of unturned agriculturists from the interior of the state to take their placea in the office.

At the Appraiser's office, In Greenwich street, Mr. William A. Darling made bis appearance shortly after twelve and was cordially received by General Palmer. He was accompanied by a number of las friends, who stood by whllo he swore. Tney smiled pleasantly.

The transfer of papers and books then took place. General Palmer soon after introduced the ten assistant appraisers to TUEIR NEW Mr. Darling addressed them briefly. He sh xild expect, he said, that their duties shall be periormed honestly and efficiently; he should exact iroin them a proper degree of respect and strict loyalty to tho President of tbo United Status and to the republican party. His efforts, he said, would be so to administer the affairs of the department as to secure a strict performance of its duties, and if thuy co-operated with him be bad no doubt they would work harmoniously together.

It might be said that the business wus at present so well conducted as to render any changes unnecessary; but ho should tako an early opportunity to visit the different divisions, and when he beoauie more familiar with the duties ho should be better enabled to judze. The assistants then got out of the way aud left lum to contemplate the celling and wonder how long li would be before another turn of the wheel would Hit mm from his comfortable Beat out into the cold. And so enucd the official lives of Mr. Orinnell and General Palmer, ami begau the sweet existence of their fortunate successors. PRESBYTERIAN MISSIONS.

Yesterday afternoon a public meeting of tlio Ladles' lioaid of Mlasions was held In the University place church, corner of Tenth street, Reports were presented from the missionaries sustained by Hie Board in Africa. China, Syria, and anions the Indians in Arizona, New Mexico and other of our Western Territories, giving encouraging signs of progress In those missions.

The treasurer's report showed that, the society had expended including to the Gaboon mission in Africa, $420 to the Syrian mission, $160 to China, $300 to the Ncatorian mission, $ooo to the Cherokee Indians and $300 to New Mexico, and It has a balance of 1 left. The Rev. Dr. Prime uddresscd the meeting on the subject of foreign missions uud the Importance of woman In this, us well as in other spheres ot Church work. Tho success of any movement, he said, depended upon its being In the liuc of Clod's provideuco.

It was not long, he remurkod, since tho Christian church awoke from the aputliy in which It ley for 200 years alter tho llelormatloa in regard to missions among tie hcatiicu. And when William Carey, the cobbler preacher, suggested tho Idea to a body of ministers Uiey scouted it, and the Oil airman of the meeting, In a sneering manner, replied that when Clod wanted to convert the heathen Ho would do It without Wll. llam Carey's assistance, and he might therefore set ina mind at rest on this point. This, however, was the starling point for au lutercst In missions, winch litis increased until, In the providcnco or uod, the whole world Is now opened to the gospel. Tho history of this first movement shows 11 to have t.eea 111 answer to a divine call.

And now there scums to bo anoiher movement equally divine and equally extent Ire, In which WOMEN ARK TO I.EAD.

'the doctor then spoke of the degradation of women I11 Mohammedan Hil licatheu countries and At the same umo demonstrated the power which the sex wield 111 those countries, Illustrating It by incidents of experience during hl3 recciit travels.

When asked lor au explanation the Hindoo declined thai it not because of any prejudice that lie had to the Doctor or to Christianity, but because if it was known no should become a social outcast. Dr.

l'i line tle rofore believes that tho women of India are noiding back thousands who would to-day discard idolatry and acccpt the Co -pel, and tins is another strong reason for sending it to them by the hands ut women. The Doctor thought that, what is most needed to-day by tho Church is not money nor wis nan' but baptism of tiie Holy Uh oat. Dr. Wtu.uii Adams salt the obiigatians of tho Oo.s| el rested as much upon one aa another.

But while ihey tarried tlioy iorgot the mission work, and 11, was not until a thunderbolt of persecution tell upon them that they wenl where preaching tho Word, except the Apostles. Ilio word translated preaching here the Doctor showed meant talking, and every Christian, l.c insisted, had an equal right to tell the story of Jesas and His love. John Newton, being once asked by a woman why he oojectcd to women prcactilmr, replied that tied had appointed men instead women that the meek lency of the glory might be Uod and nol of men, which, in the latter case, might be claimed tor female oersuHsiveucsti. The Doctor gave some rciulnisceuees of ins own cum lire, when Harriet Newell, and alierwaras Mrs. Furoush, went from New England to India as missionaries, to show what a change had come over tho seutlinent ot tho Church In regard to employing women In litis work during his own lifetime, and with a few words In to home A WciJERH A Jlunlfr Committed in 1K64 Rrnuaiit to Liglit-An Army Ollliwr the Vtriim.

A Janus-Faced Game? fectly Hafc. President Grant Reduced to Ranks. The Committee of 5err York? Bnslufess 5Jen Desert Him? The Independent Press Against Mm? Republican Leaders Divided. Washington, April 17, The Philadelphia Sunday Timet published tbe loU lowing some time since. It In true so fur an it goes, but tne half baa not been It has leaked out that Geoeral Cameron to heading' a movement to put Speaker Blaine forward the republican candidate for tbe Presidency in The plan la to get Pennsylvania pledged Blaine, und to Btart him oat with the united vote of New England and Pennsylvania at hla buck.

Grant had been informed of it, uud to suspect (Jar. moron's protedtailous of friendship toward nun. Mr. Cameron, when accused, stoutly denies it; bat thero are several prominent mem be in of Congressi who assert that he bad on more tbun one occasion' meimoiied to ihem. Mr.

lllaliie being a u.ttive of Pennsylvania, and favorable to protection, Cameron thinks bo win bo the most availubio can-; dldute. Now, the fact Is, the Pennsylvania combination, of which Cameron Id only a small part? a more figurehead? does favor Blaine, they cannot manage tai renominate Grant. Cameron did, unquestionably, nelp to give Blaine a good lift toward the Presidential nomination by inducing several Pennsylvania Congressmen to withdraw their support fto.ul Dawes for Speaker and give it to Blaine. Without the Speaker's immense uud valuable patronage' Blaine would be nowuere as a Presidential candidate. with it ue ranks very nearly numbor one.

Two weeks ago Grant's prospects for re nomination were perfectly hopeless, and the Pennsylvania combination addressed itself to the difficult tasx of brluging Blaine forward, at the same timo, for tbe I sake of the loaves and Ashes, making Grant think he wad the one lavored above all others. Now that Grant's chauces are, apparently, somewhat improved he is getting a llt'le more attention. Both Blaine and Gruut have immense patronage. Both are favorable to protective tariff, uud both1 have just about equal chances of getting the next nomination. As a matter of course both gentlemen are aided by the combination, while each Li made ta think he is the favored one.

In short, the combination's game is to secure the' present patronage cf ine President and SpeakerJ and at the same time favor all the oandiuates wlior have any Bort of a chance, for the purpose of aeour4 patronage of the next administration, whoever may be reeldont This Janus-luced game ta perfectly safe. Tout' modern politician is the most creature alive, lie taken ull professions of lrienusmp mimi oilers of support without discount. Having a very) exulted opinion or his own merits, he takes the mow hollow nailery as sincere expressions of lion of his ubnily. 'i UK PENNSYLVANIA COMBINATION. One word an to the composition or that secret political organization that shall hereafter be known' us tbe Pennsylvania combination.

if all the republican leaders of New York, including the Kenton and anti-Penton wings, were to? unite in secret council lor tbe purpose of controlling! the Presidential rcpublicun nomination, and should tuko into tuelr council a few discreet Tammany democrats and all work harmoniously together, the Pennsylvania combination would havo counterpart. The Pennsylvania republicans, like their New York brothers, are apt to indulge In me pastime ol inttidv ont.turout rings among themselves In times; but oh iiro lor tUe Presidential election approaches they drop all interna) dissensions aud put tuelr shoulders to the wheel as one man. Ko further, and take into their confidence a lew trusted democrats who prefer a snare of the patronage of a republican administration to the success of tho democratic party. At the next Uepnbilcan Convention the Pcnnsjrfa vanian delegation will be a unit. Will tho New Yorr delegation appear in it straggling crowd yf wranglers, each member having a pet candidate of hii own 1 There Is time enough to harmonize.

TUB CONVENTION. There are uow in th.s city between live aud SIX hundred of tne leading politician of the nation. A mail with his cres and cars open ought cortainlv to kuow something bolorehand of tho convention of the dominant party. it is cortalu that thoie will bo a prolonged contest? perhaps a spilt and breakup. The last couveution was merely child's play computed with what we shall sec.

In net, the Chicago Convention merely nominated tho Vice sldent no nlng more. Tno liERAi t) nominated General Grant for dent several years be. ore. Tho nomination was endorsed by a coiumiuee or the solid mcu of New York, ratified by the people and merely recorded by tne cntcago Convention. In fact, thero was no other candidate presented, or eveu talked of.

The ouljr contest was over tne Vice President, aud that wait controlled by tlio Pennsylvania combination, us is already known. At the next convention the case will be widely different. The contest will bo over the selection of a candidate for President. A large number or candidates are certain to be presented in the convention. ritK3TDENT (lit ANT has been reduced to tne tanks, and will stand upon the same looting with the others.

Tlio UsttALD naa not renominated him. Of tno committee of 11 vo solid businces men of New York wuo supported him hetoro only one stauds by htm now! The in lc? pendent press of the country Is unanimously him. A large ol the most trusted republican leaders havo repudiated him, aud there ara strong indications that, na over taxed people favor a change. These disadvantages are, it Is true, partly counterbalanced by the patronage at the disposal of the President. It Is, however, certain that a dozen or more candidates will enter the coiivi ntlon, with about equal strength; aud Just there will tie tho opportunity ol the Pennsylvania high tariff combination.

The managers of that powerful organization will be very likely to select tuelr luvorite ami nominate him. 'i'iiat fuvorite may 9 t.raut, Blaine, C'olfux, Wilson, or tome new man not now thoigiit of. IN il FOIICC it is very ccrtnln that the Pennsylvania don will attond the next convention in full force.
