NATIONAL GOSSIP. The Political and Social Status Affairs at Washington. Of CAPITAL CORRESPONDENCE. FACTS AND KAMCIEH OONCBBNIS THE APPOINTMENT OP COMMITTEES, CROOKED WHISKY AMD CROOKKDSK98 OE5KRALLY AT THE NATIOK'a CAPITAL. ISpedal Correspondence of the Sentinel. Washisotos, Dec. 11. After the atormy episode of the election of a speaker, a lall baa settled upon the arena of public affairs In Washington. Until the Home committees shall have been announced there Is likely to be but little movement of n Interesting character. At preflent It seem probable that Mr. Kerr will not have his list prepared until the 25th of thi3 month, and between the present time and ttat data the Hoofe will only assemble every three days and that merely to adjourn again, three days being the limit of adjournment for either branch of congress except by joint resolution of both Houses. Mr. Kerr continues totraviil in threes of committee making. Ol eourle each of the congressmen longs for a good place, either a chairmanship or an appointment to one of the more Important committees. Some will have to be disappointed of couree, and equally ot course Mr. Kerr will be anathematized mere or leas openly by members whose aspirations have been nipred In the tender bud. There teems to be almost a certainty that Mr. Uolman is tobechairman of the committee on commerce, and the chances ol Gea. Banks lor the foreign affairs are ucquettlonably good. The ways and means committee, in the scale of general roshio. la held in about equal balance by Wood and Cox. Almost everybody hgs a mental list made out, but the wisest nroDhet amose them Is uns.br? to give any very substantial reasons for bia anticipa tions. Meantime the whisky ring upheaval in the West excites keener attention than ever, and men's minds . are lree to scrutinize with the utmost vigor 11 the opeiations of government ofiidals. from the president downward, who are conneed with the investigations It is nnivertallv considered that a dwastrous and irrevocable mistake in policy was made bv President Grant when he dismissed y. -Senator Henderson from the prosecution of the St. Louta casas. The friends of the resident are dismayed and sorely depressed inspirit. His opponents, both those ol the adverse Dollltoal party and such of the rennhlirana as are Dlannlng to obtain the .residential nomination next year foi them elves or their friends, are openly exultant or CHCCKUKQ WITH 8UTPBBSSED SATI9F ACTION ..at Grant's irretrievable error. Even those who are firm in the conviction that Grant's alncerlty In wishing to let no guilty man escape la unquestionable, are prone to admit that should Babcock be acq nltted there will be a tremendous power of plausibility In the err. certain to be raised, that the i retention ot Henderson wonld have ensured a different result, and that his dis missal was ordered ander precisely such consideration. Under any circumstances, even should Bibcock be convicted, there will remain Impressed on cublle opinion a profound sentiment that Uraul's interference was Instigated by a desire to shield his intimate friend. And this Judgment is . greatly strengthened when it is remembered that the president has always expended his be-it efforts, and sometimes in a particularly offensive manner, to .preserve his favorites from the harsh treatment of an unsympathetic world. Beveral congtessmea from the South were conversing together this evening, wben-ope. republican, said that until he heard of Henderson's dismissal he had not lor a moment doubted that Grant intended to let the lightning strike wherever there was attractive material, but that now bis confidence In the president was destroyed, and he was obliged to recognize tbe evil Jealurea ot the business. It is a matter of talk; but I suspect, without much basis, that Secretaries Bristow and Plcrrepont deliberately allowed Grant to cast himself into this pit. Unanimity, perfect and strongly expressed, prevailed In the cabinet consultation which preceded the discharge of Henderson. It may be that Mr. Bristow was not displeased at seeing the trap opening for Gen. Grant, but It certainly wonld have been a more effective policy for the secretary to enter even a mild protest against the removal. If Orsnt'u real motive was to rid lEabcock ot a dangerous foe, bia past history with regard to his relations and social intimates is sufficient warrant for believing that he would not nave been deterred from his purpose by the -Opposition ot one or two members ol bU cabinet. Then, indeed, Bristow might have .felt it necessary lor bim to resign; bat bow much greater would Have been his laurels, .and . what a stride be would have made toward tbe reputed coal 6f bia ambition, tbe nomination for thef presidency. Grant hai now. at least, tbe defease that none of bis official advUers, and -especially Mlther of those two who aro chiefly concerned In the whisky rrosecut Iocs, pre sented any objections to bis proposal. Nevertheless, the burden of tbe etching error auuat rect upon tbe-president.,. the preeen frame) ot public opinion is undoubtedly that te seized upan such a wholly inadeniAta exsiiRA as tna mention of hu2 bv Henderson to open a way for Bibcock's escape. There are rumors that THEOHIOAfr-) WHISKY OPERATORS, who have hitherto barely been touched wllb the investigating irons, arc about to be submitted to a ecalpisg, akinnlng, and general dissecting process that will afford them Anything but azre3ble sensations. It is intimated that ome lolty heads will be brought low, and reputations faie away like snow beneath tbe sun of Investigation. Senator Logan bas not yet come to town, and be may find tbe course of events In Chicago ot such a nature tun to will deem his presence there or thereabouts indlspeoaable to the prepea working of creation. Ward, the late district attorney in Chicago, was asked to resign because of tu close social and perhaps business connectlona with members of toe ring. It is not alleged, nor Indeed acknowledged, to te uspeoieJ that be was concerned in whisky irauds, but to Messrs. Bristow and Piene-

pont It appeared that a man In such relationship to the rirg con Id not ae-tbe part of prosecutor with becoming zval, and In fact the slip-shod, desultory ctaracter of the Cnicago pursuit ot the ring was sufficient proof Of Ward's unfitness for tbe Jmaines. . The revelations of Whisky . croo.ednes in , Indiana have attracted lew notice than they would have done but for tbe more drama'-le and startling phases of the St. LonH discoveries and the succeeding events. However, one person has found sufficient to arousa his mental functions to excited operation, which person is your own Senator Morton. You have doubtless already printed Oliver's telegram denying the report that in the campaign ot 1872 h mulcted the whisky ring in tbe sum of S50, 000 lor political purposes. The telegraph, however, could not portray the Irritation and wrath depicted in the face and In the movements of the senator when he read the little impeachment of bis freedom from tbe crooked whisky influence. This fine exhibition of overflowing indignation was perhaps a genuine outcome of feeling, but then there higb-wrooght enunciations or virtue begin to fall upon the general palate, and they have become worse than tasteless since the puncturing and squeezing ol Avery's, Joyce's and now Babcock's emphatio and resonant assertions ol injured innocence. SPBAKBR KERR RECEIVED THIS EVENING the doubtful compliment of a serenade irom

the Metropolitan Club, a local political organization. Doubtful compliment it was, and was so received by Mr. Kerr, tor the club is composed, to great extent, or at least under tbe Influence or certain so-called democrats, who have been Involved in the Shepherd ring intricacies. It was under stood that Mr. ISew would mace some Kino of a speech at ths tetenade, but when tbe band had sent out a sufficient amount of its brazen clamor, the expectant gathering of people looked in vain lor Mr. New and were obliged to content themselves with a very brief acknowledgment by Mr. Kerr, inere is, by the way, a report that Mr. New Intends without much delay to tender bis resignation of tbe office of treasurer. I do not know whether he has yet given Inti mation ot his purpose to Mr. Drlsvow or tue president. His disposition to retire arises i trom consideration of a private nature. During his residence in Washington he Has gained many frlpcdj, in bo h his olSvia! and social capacities, and his withdifjwal will be sincerely regreted by numbers who havs come In contact with bim. Capital. THE SOUTn AND THE UNION. SOUTHERN PVTRIOTISM BK.NEFlCI AL EFFECT OK THE RETURN OF THE DEMOCRACY TO POWER KERR'S ELECTION AN EARNEST OF TRUST IN THE SOUTH. Under the bead "Good Cheer for tbe 'South," the Louisville Courier-Journal re marks editorially as follows: Tbe lone o Southern sentiment la decidedly cheerful. The return of the democrats to power ushers In the welcome era o! ssctlonal reconciliation. Radical fanatics take tbe restoration of hopefulness on the part of the South to be a manifestation of an assurance that the Iost Cause is to walk out to Its grave clad in resurrection robe a of triumphal splendor. Such a notion bas its birth in that pesslmiam ever characteristic of tbe Northern i.tdicals when tbey view tbelr political omnipotence vanishing down the perspective of a fading epoch. Refusing to let the dead past bury ita dead, tbey do not recognize tbe dry spring. Bitter in their own prejudices, they decline to ad mit that faith in principle is not honesty in conviction. Consequently they can not believe that, the prindole net aside, honesty may remain the common heritage of dissentients. But, nevertheless, the world wags on, the seasons come and go, and the rain fails upon the just and unjust alike. That was not an idle observation made recently by a contemporary, viz: "The Southerners seem to be the sincerest patrU ots." It should not be construed too literally, however. Do we not look to oor Lamars when occasion demands a show of patriotic emotion? And may not tbe time come when the South hall be THE PEACE-MAKER between the Weat and the East? Then will not the nation rise up and exclaim "Blessed are the peace-makers, lor they shall save the stale!" Christ came out of Nazarethmay not salvation spring from the rising dust of the Confederacy? Tbe world's history is a constant succession of surprises. Anomalies in governmental polity are scarce phenomenal. What is tbe "logic of vents" but Inductive reasoning from contrarieties? Mayhap is as much ot an element in the political horoscope as inference a priori. Good may therefore yet come out ol this, our Nazareth. Tbe fostering care which tbe democracy will exercise over tbe South will not cause the tares to sprout among the wheat. Incendiary sentiments will be forever allayed. Fraternal malevolence will harken to the golden rule. Memory will no longer god. "This was some time a paradox, but now tbe time gives it proof." Tbe South, convalescent from radical domination, ad regaiulng its natural vigor, seeks men ol large mold for its representation in the hall ot the national legislature. The balance of intelligence, as well as the numerical counterpoise, is gradually being restored to tbe normal equilibrium. Proscripttve obstacles removed, an open field offered to every maa's aspirations, and his abilities accorded fair play without favor, tbe republic will tread the path to glory sound and healthful in every member. Such la IHK MISSI0H-OP THI DKMOORACT. It is natural that the diseased imagination of the virulent radical preas and the rabidly radical orators should conjure up horrid, bloody-sheeted specters to affright tbe doves or peace. It in natural, because men who have by long sorceaH9 of Justice grown bold and black in their riotoo9 aina should resort to any pretext, however .monstrous, to ward off the gathering tbunderburst. The belter elements of tbe ladical party are conservative in character. If it la saved from formal Indorsetuent of the third-term movement, the credit will be due to its Gristows and Jeweils. Tbey constitute tbe nobility ot tbe party. If tbe presidential victory of 878 falls to the etare ot the republicans, It will be through their concessions to tbe integrity and the sincerity of the Houth tn its professions of fidelity to tbe best Interest of the nation. If, OQ tbe ot tier band, they undertake to fight it out oa the -old Hue, sotne of tbs bottom rails will soar sky ward that is all. The fact that Mr. Iverr site to tbe speaker's chair la an earnest that the South is to be trusted henceforward. Tbe advent of tbedemocracy may, therefore, be considcjed as a prov identlal dispensation in tbe Interest of bar mony and good fellowship next Fourth of July. The Lord bath not deserted Israel. In Montreal last week a well known pro prietor, whoderivoi his income from tbe rent of his houses for immoral purposes, sued a newspaper or damals. Justice Torrance dismissed the plaintiff's suit, with costs, saying. In his judgment, that with regard to bis teellng bei .Mg hurt by any reflections made by the defendant, the court did not consider that be tad any moral senBltiU v, or tbat bis feeling. oould be ounded by reflections cast on him, whether true or lalae.

THE RING WORM'S TRAIL. It is firettinar rather Hot for tnoae High in Authority.

THE NATION'S SCANDAL. BABCOCK BCSTn MORTON IN MISERY AND THE OTHER HEARTS THAT ACHB THI LATF8T CROOKED GOSSIP IX .WASHINGTON AND ST. LOUJS. The New York Herald of Wednesday contains several colBmns of special dispatches from St. Louis, Washington and otb er points concerning the national scandal &q whisky ring revelations. The St. X jouis special, who seems to speak bytbrCard, says: The story was told me not b y Murdoch, for be lives out in Marble P.ili, Mo., by an official of high standing. While Murdoch is Inclined to think that the presid'jnt never got tbla statement, and tbat i c Waa Intercepted by Babcock, this officia j declare tbat be-knows the president did receive it, and tbat General Grant la also - indictsble for conspiracy in tailing to a'upon it and allowing Information as it sender to be given to Joyce and McDonald. Mr. Dyr, a very obliging gentlem an but one who bas a very high ide'j of oQcial duty, declines to giveacopyot Murdoch's statementon tbe ground mat be will use It as evidence against Bibcock. Neither he nor Mr. Henderson th'.nk that it inculpates tbe president, becaur there is no evidence tbat te received it, lrjt a lew others who know its existence .hink it does, and say eo. There are eve u those who nay that an effort will be mad e to procure an indictment against the president before tbe new stand jury, called .or January, but Mr. Dyer denies this I-a empbatic terms. However, all these statements are significant as showing tbe exc ited state of public feeling In St. Louis ron tbe subject of tbe-e gigantic fraud ;, when tbe probable indictment oi tbe "resident of the United States is Tcooly discussed as a contingency not at all imposible to happen. SENATOR MORTON AND THE GRAND JURT. In connection with tbe calling of this new grand Jury a gentleman who was a member of the last grand lury told ma that an atteoiptwlll undoubtedly be made to Indict Oliver P. Morton, the senator from Indiana This gentleman says that a letter from Morton wsj presented to tbe last grand jury, in Tvhicl tbe senator a&ked the m mbera ol the St. Louis wbiskv ring to raise money lor the campaign of 18,2 from tbe distillers, and that other evidence exi-ts to connect Morton with money raised by tbe crooked whisky distillers. 1 his, takfcn with the fact tbat McGuire admits tbat tbe Republican Stat9 Central Committee of M s'ouri were in debt to the amount or $17,000 ia tbe campaign of 1872, and tbat the late Henry T. Blow stated publicly be fore tbe republican state convention of 1874 tbat the denciency or i n uw was made UD by the liberality of fede.al office holders of St. Louis, is certainly very remarkable, and tfeere are those who say maliciously that this money weot to Indiana, and not to Missouri. At alt events, whether tbe story be true or not I give It as coming from very trustworthy authority. This new grand jury will a'o, probably, investigate the frauds alleged to have been perpetrated in tbe building of tbe custom bouse, and if tbey at tbe same time set to work to indict Grant and Morton, as rumor has it, they will have tbelr banda fall Luckily, the president, as I am informed by a very eminent lawyer ot St. Louis, can not be tried during bis term of office, so tbat the greatest scandal and tall tbat bas ever happened in this country wonld be spared to us. A FRIEND OF THE FAMILY. At the Instance of General Grant, an old family friend of the Grants, ex-Governor Reynolds, who will be remembered as tbe confederate governor of Missouri, was asked tc-day to accept tbe position of special as shtant prosecuting counsel for the whisky fraud cases, but be declined this afternoon without stating reasons. It wss immedi ately surmised that Governor Reynolds waa too strongly in sympathy with Henderson to accept such a position, but the old gentle men especially requested roe to say tbat this was not true, and said violently: "I not only am not in sympathy with Henderson, but I think he has acted like a perfect blackguard, and If old Jackson had been president I know he wonld have come down and thrashed him." This is Interesting as snowing now an . intimate friend ol the Grant family feels on the subject. Reynolds' appointment at the direct iostaoceot tbe president, and unasked as it was by Dyer, who wanted no additional help, has caused here much surprise, and has been commented upon in a tone very unfavorable to tbo president. It is generally understood that Reynolds is not only a most Intimate friend of Grant, but also of Babcock, and tbat tbe president after Henderson's successor bas been duly installed, and when tbe prosecution required no additional assistance, should have gone out of Lis way to add to It a most intimate friend of Babcock is generally regarded as a most unfortunate exhibition ot his desire to shield his private secretary. Reynolds, who is a high-toned, honorable man, would not be forced into so unpleasant a position of duplicity, and as be would have done bis duty if he bad accepted the retainer of the government, he very dis. croetly and honorably declined it. TWO MANY LAWYERS. Bat even from a purely economical point of view this interference of the president looks strange. Dlstriot Attorney Dyer bad asked for no additional aid, and why spend more of the people's money than there is any need for? Mr. Dyer baa three able as sistants, Eston, Bliss and Peddrick, all three oergetle and bright lawyers: and he has also Brodhtad, who bas a retainer of 91,000 already in bia pocket. This makes five lawyers, which ought certainly to suffice for the prosecution of'these euf a. and It does in their own opinion, and nevertheless tbe president goes to work and appoints one or üaooocK's very oest friends as an add! tional special counsel. Certainly tbe ways of the president In this Babcock business are queer to fay me least. THI FKBXINa IN WASHINGTON -Mv" . "ON MISERY. im The developments in the wbfok - rials at Indianapolis begin to attract attention here. ana it appears tbat a number of local politi clans and several old hangers-on of the internal revenue office when Mr. Delano was commissioner are deeply concerned lest all the facts in connection with the operations ortneiwo uingnams should bo developed Home of tbe parties In these Indianapolis trials cave mads confessions arm statements which are now in possession of tbe govern meot and which prove to be ot great Im portance, not only in themselves, but as helps to further luvestlgationn, which it Is anticipated will secure other Indictments. Senator Morton is indignant at tbe charses made aaainst bim in tbe account from St. Loulfi. He ex presses bimoelt to-day In tbo following vehement language: "The diipatch In tbe New Yark papers to-day from 3 Louis tbat Mr. Dyer, tbedUtrlol attorney in Sc. Louts, attributea tbe tact tbat bit i a me bas not been sent in by tie president to tbe Senate to tbo opposition ot Senator Morton because of bis exposure of the Morton campaign, fund of 1872 s utterly untrue. I never heard ot Mr. Dyr using a

word about r,e. Don't bf-lieve be ever did. I never int'Afred against bim w th tbe president 0 anybody else. Tee aliegUion of the erposureof tbe campaign lund of 1S72 Is ut terly untrue. Tbe paragraph deacribed 41 coming from Senator Morton to a dialog arshed man who visited St. Louis, is absolutely faUe. I never heard of any such seen' t 1q ti,e cabinet. Don't believe it occQrd, I never mentioned such a thing to a b a man being, and tbe whole statement In eery particular, so far as I am coc corned, i an utter falsehood." Mr. Morton reiterates what be said tbe other day, to tbe effect

tbat tbe dispatca demanding money for campaign pur pc. 838 was entirely false. 1 he whole diapatcb, so far a? it relates to him. is an unmitigated falsehood, be says, and he believes it was cooked up In Washington and aent up to St. Louis, thence to New York.

According to lire men dispatches, Thomassen, the pasaesger on the Mosel and owner of the cahk of dynamite which caused the terrible disaster at Bremen Haven.bas confessed hi guilt,aylns tbat he had accomplices at New York. The motive for this diabolical scheme appears to have been to procare exaggerated and fictitious insurance, and to bare aiU rwsrd with ihe others. Tbornsen lnquiieconsclous and answers all questions, but tbe bullets have not yet been extracted from his head. From what is known, the barrel prepared for this shameful work was made strongly by a Bremen cooper and partitioned. Kooe part Containing tne dynamite snd tbe other lhi)apparatutoreiplrdinglt.

He lived In Virginia during tie war and engaged iu the business of blockade running, whereby he grew tich. Since lfWi be baa resided here and at Lnprio, and last at Htrethlen, near Dresden. He appars to have lost this money and became erabarasRed. He was twice in America during trie past summer. The last time he went without the knowledge of his family, and when he returned be wrote his b nker here that be had made arrangements enabling him to pay his debts In December. He w highly esteemed by the people in Germany. Illi house has been searched but nothing was found connected with the disaster. Tbomasaen has attempted suicide again by tearing off the dressings from his wounds." "Bremen, Dec. 1. Thomassen died to-day from tbe effects of the Injuries inflicted by himself. He stated that his true name was William King Thompson and that be was a native of Brook'yn, N. Y. His age ts believed to be about 35 years. He confessed that, he wasonee tbe captain of the vessel Old Domic Ion, and that he changed his name to avoid Dein prosecuted lor running tbe blockade during the civil war in America: that he bought the explosive material In tbe United states ana had it for ward d to his address, and that the clockwork attachment waa manutactured in tiermany and was set to explode the charge in eight aays.
