Beveral handred prominent politiclans from Ohlo, half as many from New York City and State, and o score or two from cach of meversl other Btates in the East and West came to Wasbington to witness the fnauguration, and part of them have remalned ini the hope that some lucrative office will be offercd them, A gentleman from Ohlo remarked to-day thot & sufiiclent number of “politicians {rom his Htate to .

A majority of the oflice-scekers who came to Washington last week and the early part of this weck have already discovered what the pollcy of the Administration is to be in this regard, and many of thetn have already left for hoine.
