THE LATE 80CIAL FROLIO. Tho firat twelvo weoks of the sesslon thin winter wero partly absorbed in the almost uni- vorsal party and receplion-giving ; but, since Lont eot in, tha public work goes forward mora oarnestly. P Sometimes I think that we waste too much timo in tho press decrying the imovitublo, This socinl fralic began with Wash- ington's Administration, and for a long timo thero was what the fomnle correspond- outs call o “Court circle,” which mado magisterial soclety conveniently small, Since the ndvent of Mr. Lincoln, the nreeence of digni- taries hos becomo mioro diffused; aud flunlly Presi- dent Grant hns domolishied the Washington eti- quette, goes whare he plenses, but, at the snma time, louds bis moral Infiuonce und’ examplo to the extiavaganco which has brought about so muony seandals. o is tho genius of lus Admin- ineration in u sociel point of view, baving come to oflice with camp-habits and army-rivelrics, and loving a stafi-circle and 1ich civilians' at- tentions, 'This is tho army-naturein all parts of tho world. o TIE FRESIDENT s rarely indulged himeelf more at the Capitel thau in the camp, doveloping in the lino of his nutural character, which hos the unyiolding prejudicos of tho Scotcl. ik powers ara almost mperial, 1lis patronngo he kuows ns fully ns ho knows tho roputations.

A flattoring porson he was, and comely ns o womau, who snid such sweet things in Congross of his Prosident, that tho Iatter, though with difioulty, was porsuaded not to go over to the Domocratic Jucobitos.

Both Morton and Butler bit- torly inveigh upon this themo in the privacy of tho closet, and benco the Third-Term ides is a bnd doso for tho paxty to smoll, much less o tako. Out of this I'hird-Torm possiollity como such unensy movements s for awhile disturbod THE LOUISIANA OASE. ‘Warmoth long ngo mado his concessions to_tho Trosident ; aud tho brother-in-law, Casoy, boro lhh:’ beaton Monmouth to tho Throne, bosoeching atdon, v *Warmoth,” said Cnsoy to your correspond- anty “ungs Uit o ‘mistukio of his lifo was going against tho President.” Grant, thus mollifled, was willing to_oxpungo his Lousiaun record, uud, provided Casoy way tuken caro-of, lot bygones bo bygones, for the anko of accossions Southward and fossilward. T'he iden of becoming tha candidate of the Con- gorvativo forcos of the country had boon im- [;rcsued upon him by Mosby and othors, and i1t ooked aa {€ his own Topubficans wero dull and ingrato in saying nothing timely about n Third Term, Dutlor und Matt Carpenter had been nttachied to tho Auti-Kollogy side for kin- dred 1ensons, of which Warmoth was not unaware, Othor Senators hold their original views, ora Btato Govornment which bad nover possessod any ballot-boxes or voting lsts was n usurpation,—the more cruct that tho Presidont had confirmed it. 1o also wished tomoke amends in this rogurd,—tho scandal baving, after some yours, become dimly apparent to him. And so iho proposition was made to hold a now election in Euninh\nn. It received the support of so many Graut men that Morton saw tho dangor. Ha saw that the Irosident, in pursuauce of his sohiomo for & Third Torm, was willing to disband tho llclmulimm organization, which o, More ton, belloved strorg enough totriumph in auothor campnign with sttuight lendor. Tho groat old cripple took tho fiold and sounded the slogan. 1t was on intorosting picture to sco him sitting thore, in his black aud iron charactor, hammer- ing_ out words aud phrases which slowly recoy- crod the party mon to their iraditions. o ravived tho Dlood whick was shad in tho stroots of Now Orleans, Ilo sot the Robellion up again, ond crowned and armed it, Tho party closed up foebly, ltke old veterans who had nearly forgotton their drill; and Couke ling also glipped into tho ranls, thereby confess- ing that Morton was still his chioftain. At or about tunt moment, tho I’resident lost his nerve at tho rumor thut Morton was sbout to beadn genoral nttack for the ovorthrow of his Secro- tary of tho Treasury, and ho was further brought to his scuses by tho rude robuff of both his Chief Justices, Williams and Cusbing, Ho lizuled off, nnd the matter was disposed of by letting Toouisiana alone, Grant also half-profess- {ng to bhavo had no intentions to displaco Kol- ogg. B8z caxvrpates ron e PRESIDENCY, Thus they stand for tho timo: Morton about half-awaro that the Third-Torm iusue is too in- decont to bo loft much longor to rumor, and ought to bo mat in tho Sonuts nad sucsred nwny. But that would be to commit all Granl's favor to Conldling, who moantimo is rogarded as tho bt~ tor of the Presidont's protensious to a Third Torm, hoping somobody clso will destroy thoso pretonsions und let bim quietly rovorse positions with Grant,—tho favored fustend of the favorer. Menntime Speaker Blaino is drilling outside, with nearly ail the Houso of Reprosentatives in- clined toward lua candiduture. In tho Houso, Grant_is tho most \nympulnr mag in the Umited States ; aud tho Lepublican, widch is the Prosidential organ, saown the reason. Ile does ot divido fair, That papes attacked the patron- age of Congress in a leading article rccontly, and claimed that the wholo of tho Exccutive forces of tho Governmont belonged by right to the Chiof Exccutive. If tho Congressmon can hold their districts and elect delegates to tho next National Convention pledged to Blaine, ha will be tho rogutar candtdato. euco, the impor- tance of noxt fall's elections. On the other hiand, Seuntor Morton I8 ralsing the Grangors’ issue in the Senate, for a two-fold reason: to_climinate Conkling aud Blaiue, who are ralrond-men, and to hiiug that clement to the Republican party, and carry the delegato olections with_it. ou perceive that Dutler, standing outside, with a good pa:t of the South- ern Itcpublican voto in hig lands, can be o use- ful man to cither nué;irnnt. Therein liea hig prolonged influence, at the present moment,— eithor enndidntenseisting himtochango Collectors of Ports, and fues around iu perquisites and potrounge. Tho incomo of this man from inci- dantal Government Lusiness must bo onormons. 1l is tho most successful politician wo have ns nupt:l:stllliun. Aand still ho lmngers to nde on tho box.
