Senator Conkling arrived at the Filth Avenue Hotel yesterday moraing on bis way to Washington, for which city be will leave early to-day, From the time of bis arrival uutil a late hour last nignt he was re- ceiving visitors in his characteristically courteous manner, Among these were several intimate friends of the Senator, and, though he declined to be inter- viewed, to these be talked freely upon the present po- litical situation, both nationally and in the State of New York In reterence to the latter, it was understood that Mr, Coukling complains that he hus been urossly misrepresented by the press and by those members of is own party who are opposed to him personally. He says that great stress has béen laid upon his course at the Rochester Convention iv reference to Mr. Piatt, while if the actual facts had been known the con- demnation might probably bave been spared. Tho only connection the Senator had with that speech was that before it was delivered he ventured to advise the speaker to be conciliatory and moderate In any criti- cisin that he might make on the policy of the adminis- tration; to say nothing that could bo regarded as often- sive, but to fraukly state what his views might be in reference to that policy, Senator Coukling did nut seo the speech before it was delivered; did uot bear the whole of It, certainly not that portion which is cialmed to be offeusiv During the delivery of that speech Mr, Conkling said | that he entered the Conveation when the speaker was culogizing General Grant, and he appiauded that pus- sage, ‘his ebuilition of good fecling, the instinctive uidorsemment of a tribute to the North of a great man, bad been construed jnto an ibspiration of the entire speech of Mr. Platt, When be proposed that genus. man for permanent chairman be had no Knowledge of the character of that speech, except from the remarks of delegates inude in the excitement of debate, While he had no disposition to shirk the responsibility he then agsumed and. was willing to bear the oon quences of bis Conduct, whatever those might be, ie declined tu be thus misrepresented, YMR ADMINISTRATION POLICY, It was understood that Seuator Conkling expressea himself as triendly to the administration, but douvt- fui as to the practicability of the Southern and civil service retorm policies, He thinks (hat there is too much sentiment and too jittie real work on the part of the administration aud tbat ‘t is time that atiou- on Was paid to the actual neoessities of the country, and that the fittie minor question a8 to whether a postmaster speaks in a caucus might be left on tne iubie fora time, He contrasts the present condition of tho administration, its personnel and its supporters with that Frei at Johnson, aud thinks that there is remarkable historical parallel between them, He thinks it nov uunkely that evens may show that the bistorical paralies will not hold good in the day of trial of the policy, and that time muy suow the wisdom of the ad- ministration, but he objects to republicans being per- ted wud read out by the party because they are he opinion that the logic of events will show that the time has not yet come for tho Suuthera and civil service reform policy to be engrafted tuto practioul politics. THE OW1O BLKCTION, Senator Conkling, it is said, believes that Obio hag been lost to the republicans in consequence of the attitude of the administrauon, Various reasons tor the defeat have been given, but the real reason Is that the people ure not satisfied with the administration policy. ‘The election will result im sending either Ewing or Pendleton to the senute, and on tbat very momentous consequences will result, There was no doubt that there was a clear majority of 36,000 repubhieans in Ohio, and when the present unpleasantness was over aad men bad made up their minds uot to bludgeon one another be- cause they differed in opinion those men would vote as they had always voted—with the republican party, But in the meantime great mischief bad been aone. A republican ratification meeting of the State ticket is to be held at an early day in this city, and Senator Conkling promised inst uzght to be present and speak. The day Was not fixed delimuely, because it will be made subject to the couvenionce of Mr. Coukling, who can better tell what day will be the most couvenient after he has spent a short tumo in Washington, EX-GOVERNOK HENDRICKS.
