HOW HEWITT SPOILED TILDEN’S CHANCES FOR THE PRESIDENCY—MR. MORTON PLAYS THE TRUMP CARD. The following special to the Graphic from Washing- ton conveys some of the interesting theories now afloat im shat city in regard to the political situation :— Wasmixeton, Jan. 6, 1877. There has been a great deal of politieal gossip here concerning an alleged intrigue between the chi T7 the republican party and Mr, Abe Hewitt. Lt is stated upon what is claimed (o be good authority that there was a time when the immediate advisers of President Grant were of the opinion that Governor Hayes was reaily not legally elected and that the vote of Lou: ana would be cast for Mr, Tilden, The were the more willing to take this view inasmiich as information reached them ut the same tme that, if Mr, Hayes were chosen. bis cmief advisers would be Geprge William — Carus, Carl schurz, Benama H. Bristow, Murat Halstead, Sum Bowles and other — so-called relormers, As the regular republican leaders bad not spent their money nor given thew labor for the pur- pose of bringing their personal enemies into power they at one time seriously considered ube advisability niente the electorai vote of Louisiana to go for ‘Tilden, And here comes in the gossip concerning the inter- view vetweer the President and Mr. Hewitt, lho story goes that Hewiti was so impreased by what was said by the President that he couid not keep bis coun- sel to himself and telegraphed to bis {riends tbat there was ap exceilent chanve that the administration woud countenance the election of the democratic candidate for the Presivency. Of course tt yot into print, whereat—so runs the story--the republican leaders became alarmed and said, ‘We cannot deal with so leaky and unwise a representative of the democratic party as Abe Hewitt.” While this negotiation was pending, and while the President was hesitating, Senator Morton, it is alleged, sent a messenger to Columbus, Obio, to see Governor Bayes, telling him trankly that unless there was a pledge that he would recognize the old leaders of the party rather than the pretended reformers, unques- lionably the weight of influence of the administrauion would be thrown onthe side of Tilden, Alter con- siderable reluctunce, and in order to satisty the friends of the present administration, it is said that a docu. ment Wus returned to Senator Morton by Mr, Hayes, pledging that in the event of his election certain per- sous should not be appointed to Cabinet positions under the new administration. ‘This document has been shown toa sufllciont number ef the republican leaders to satisty them that Rucherford B, Hayes 18 all right about recognizing the oid line administrauion supporters, Ut, coutinues the story, while Senator Conkling was a purty to the original proposition to count in Tilden, be had nothing to do with the subsequent intrigue by which Hayes was committed to the regular wing of the Republican party. He was lett vut in the cold, together with the *relormers,’’ which accounts for lus “expectant” attitude ever since. Under the arrangement thus made Hayes is to be chosen President; but to accomplish this a still further arrangement was made by which the Suuthern members were taken ito the confidence of the incom- ing administration, and such pledges given us would Insure the Southern people the control of ther own governments, In every way the reformers and tho Tilden democrats have been outwitted. There was a time whea Mr. ‘Tilden’s (rienda beid the trump cards in their hanas, but Mr. Hewitt bas spoiled the trick by playing toe wrong cards. Lt is very certain that there 18 a great deal ot hard feeling here against Mr, Hewitt among the democrats, ‘They say he may be a very good business mun, but that he is a yery poor politician; that the faculties whieh enabled bim Agen a large fortune are not such as fit him to shihe m public life; that a third rate politician at the nead of the Democratic National Committee would have been moro efficient than he possibly could have been. ‘Yo sum up, itis now pretty certain that Hayes will be declareu elected with the conseut of the Southern democrats ; and, n@&xt, that Messrs, Curtis, Carl Schurz, Murat Halstend and the wing of the republican party which they represent will have very littie to. say in re to the compos tion of the incoming Cabinet, It | is believed, however, that scbharz will be recognized to the extent of an appointment as Minister to France, and that Bristow may get the Russian or Vienna mission, But the new Cabinet will represent tho Conk- ling’s powerful help is expected, but he bas cho-en to occupy an enurely independent position — It is under- siood that Morton himself is compelled on one impor. tant point to muke a concession, and must be willing to Tecognize the Southern democratic State governments, AKT MATTER: DREAMING IOLANTHE, BY MRS. CAROLINE 8, BROoKs. : New Yorkers who were unfortunate enough not to have visited the Centennial Exinbition haye now an excellent opportunity of becoming acquainted with one of the most curious experiments which attracted attention in that great show, Mrs, Caroline 8, Brooks, who was dubbed by the visitors to Philadelphia “The | Butter Woman,’ bas placed on exhibition in a room on | Broadway, adjoining the Aquarium, her work **Dream- ing Tolanthe.”? Thik is the head of a_ fur woman modelled in alto-relievo and remarkable for its sweetness of expression anu beauty of finish. Indeed, the [olauthe of Mrs. Brooks’ imagination may be said, with literal truthfulness, to be us ‘sweet as butter,” of which appelizing material it is made It 1s, therefore, uot tou much tb say that it is beauti- fal and sweet enough to be eaten, Apart from its quality asu work of art ‘Dreaming Iolanthe’? hus the merit of bemg an experiment irom witch Mra Lrooks hopes that contemporary sculpture wiil derive | some benefit, She claims to have demonstrated | in this ana similar butter works the adaptability of the product of the churn tor the sculptor’s purposes, Butter 1s to be no lounger wasted by being vaten, or to repose merely on slices of bread, the victim of the gas- | | tronomist, but is to ascend into the higher sphere of dhy— prayer for the outpouring of the Holy spirit upon artistic utility and become a medium for the expres- stor of beatiful thoughts instead of ministering | it will lend a new atin to ignoble desires, tion to the sculptor’s art.
