Foster from tha Senatorinl fight in this State has thrown things into greater confusion {n the body polltio than nny othor actlon for many moons. I have walted long cnough before writing nbout it to be able to obtain a number of Interviows giving tho exact shade of views of tho different sections. “What does Gov, Foster's withdrawal mean?" inquired a lending editor of Northorn Ohio of me, yesterday, “That Is for you to tell, I answered, + You tury suppoted to know." “Well, have tiny Idens about it,” sald he, after n wise and far-off look, “ What {s that?” 5 “Inn convinced that thore Isn good deal of humbug about it. Iam convinced that Foster was SATIRFIED THAT 13 COULD NOT MAKE IT, and he thought it was tho best thing ho could do togotoutof the way. Gartield, Sherman, and Foster bnve pulted togethor before now, and they can go It now." “But it {s generally understood that there is a good deal of bad feeling generated among thom, isn't it?” “Yes, and that {struc too, . But that doesn't Prevent their working together all right, You have seen members of the same fatnily fight Ike ents and dogs,—haven't you?—nnd then, whon any outsider atepa in, they will all Join hands and fight bim. Gartleld and sherman have always been rivals, Sherman bas used Garfield fIke a dog more than a hundred times. Ho kept him down for yenrs, and thongbt ho conld continue to do so. Tle Banlly agreed to help Garfield to get the Eenntorship which he (Sherman) had cast off, provided Garileld would work for bim for Prealdent, Fuster, who was younger in+ Oblo politics, emme in ag tho Inst fellow. In *tho tripurtite are rangement, and was to bo given tho Gov- ernorsbip, Foster nat that tlmo was. loved by both Sherman and Garfield, The’ develop: menta of the Chicago Conyention—by which Garield got more than even with Sherman for ull tho attempted snubs of n lifetime, and Sher- man got mad at Foster for what be constdered trenehery—are well*known facts of history. Foster began hls struggle for the Senntorship. Sherman's friends, after thoy saw that abuse would do no good, began to ADMINISTER TAFFY IN SICKENING DOSES to Foster, In thut they atruck Foster's vulner- able point. Hy could have fought them all, and beaten them too, But, when be saw the grent sacrifice which Secretary Sherman made in bis interview, when he eald that there was no hard feolings between himself and Gov. roster; when he wus told that tho party would suffer ko tha deuce ff he left the State, and that no one else coult defeat the Democrats here,—it was moro than Churley could stand. and be flopped out. Then he was smart enough to seo that, If he went In strong for tho Senntorship and was beaten, he would be in mighty bed shape, with Sherman in tho Senate, and his own reputation asa fighter gone. Garficld undoubtedly asked Foster to yct out of the fight; Sherman and his frlends, I know, promised to help make bim Senntor when Pendlctan's terin expires; and, on tho whole, he thought that was tho best thing to do,” “What made Garfleld have anything to do with the matter?” “01 hardly know; only that It isa great nat- ter right at home, and be could hardly hetp bay- {ng nn interest In ageing the right thing dono, Soridus quarreia umong the statesmen of 0 Presidont's own State havo often greatly om- Durraased an Administration.” “Do you think Garticld promised Fostor o Cabinot-portfollo it he would withdraw?” % “TL NON'T THINK BO, but It may ba possible. I don't think Garfleld will choose any member of bis Cabinet from Ohio, Ho would like to put Foster in tho Cabl- net, Holooks upon Fostor asone of tho shrewd- est politicians, as well as ono of tho wisest statosmen, so far as anything pertaining to finunco and commerce is concerned, that tho country has produved. Garticld discovered Fos- ter when he was in tho Housy, and tho two havo always worked together, They are congenini, Both are large-heurted, asd both are popular with the people.” ‘Thore 1s a fecling with some of Foster's atanch- est frionds that tho only propor rewurd for his getting out of tho Senatorial raco isto put him inthe Cabinet. Ifnd that this feeling prevails somewhat oven among thoso who opposed hia Senatorial aspirations ut tho State Capital.

Thero are two thlucs that would efectually KML anything lookiug in that direction: In the ‘tirst ‘place, Garfield will bu nominated for tho Proaldency fn Isat; and it bas not probally quite come to that pass yet whon tho President and Vico: Prasident will both bo taken from tho samo State, Secondly, Sher+ manhag the beo in bia bonnet Just as much now as over, If bo ean seo anything that looks Itky a chance, ho will wo in for the noms ination wgaln, Gartiok’s frionda were atruld that, f Sherman was dropped out of public life too suddonly, it would crente aympiathy for hiny fin tho State,—for he really hug a great mans’ friends hore, Tho grout opposition to bim bas been that bo wis thought tobe A LITTLE ON THE Oss" ONDER, ‘Thero nro sovoral things that make ino think that Foster will be given i phice In the Cabluet,. Que of thon TE have no objections to giving. A few days before Foster withdrew, the Hon A, I.
