Prom Our Own Correspondent. Washington, Nov. 9 189S. Onr Mlnlater to Eaclnnd. JLcvfrdy JotiLion, our Minister al the Court of Bt. James, is Hie legitimate fruit of the dis graceful "trading" policy pursued by IbeSioate In the matter of appointments and oonflrma. lions. Of course every llepubllcan Senator la lieartily disgusted with Minister Johnson's conduat In England, and a clear majority of ihtra would Ooxbtie.s vote for a renolatiou of censure. But this would be a new illustration of locking the ttable door after the bone bus been stolen. Kcverdy JohnnoD's Confirmation. Every Intelligent person at all acquainted with tbe blHtory of Iteverdy Johnson's career fxpected blm to do Just about what be has done In England. It would be derogatory to tne knowledge of tbe Senators to suppose that tin y knew lets of Jobneou than parties ont htde tbe Senate. Tbe mont charitable eonstrao tion that ean be put npon tbelr conduct is to klve them the benefit of the presumption that tbty have been deceived in blm. But still thii will bardlj satisfy tbe masses of the American people who have been outraged and dlatsraoed by tbe cobduct of tbe man selected by the Senate to represent item at tbe British OiurL Nobody was surprised that President Johnson should niHke such an appointment, li-jverdy will bis politlctl aud personal friend, tie was the open aud avowed champion of "my policy" In the Senate, and It was nai ural tbat be should be rewarded. But It was In tbe power of tbe Senate to defeat the appointment. KuverJy'g nomination might have been treated an waa the nomination of Sunset Cox for the Austrian raluslon. Mr. Sum ner, Utairman of tha Sen tte Ounmlltee of Foreign Relations, was at first disposed to re port against Mr. Jouuison's nomination. He was of the opinion then, as now, that be was not tbe proper man to represent ns in Rigland, especially In view of tbe settlement of the Alabama claims. Mr. Sumner, however, dis covered thai not only waa a inJ rlty of the Committee favorable to Heverdy Jobueon, but tbat tbe Senate wna determined to confirm blm. Under these circumstances be reported favorably, and although Mr. Johnson did not receive tne full vote of the Senate, there were no votes against blm. Itadleal Keuiitora NonpluMaed, Every RepuDlican Senator tbat I have heard speak about toe aubjuut denounces the conduct of Minuter Jonnsou. When tbe question. Is asked, "Why did you vole for him?'' they have really no answer to in ake, Tneykuew be was a lieruoorat, that dnrlnj the war bis secret sym pathies were with tli .South, aud that be had nothing In common with the party that crushed the KebMlllon. WUn his antecedents and his political views, It was natural for blm to aOlll ate with Mr, Laird and other aiders and abet tors of the South In England. The only possible explanation for the vole of tbe Senate In John son's ease Is tbe demoralisation wnloh resulted from tbe ''awanplug" policy, and the custom of tbe Senate to oopurtn unanimously one of Its own menibe's When nominated to orQoe. The former will scarcely a'aud tha tea-of soru'lny beiote tbe Ameiluau people, espeolally when two-thirds of the Senate li Republican. The latter, la Johnson'- case, ai, indeed, la many otheri "Ii a en to i afore braeree I" the brtaab thaa me ebsirvanee." Borne of the Senators aeem , to forget that when great public Interests are at atake, private preferences ;and whims should be forgotten. Had Iteverdy Johnson'! nomination been treated aa that of any ordinary Democrat, we wonld bave been spared the disgrace of "our Mli later to England fawning upon the men who tried to sweep our commerce from the seas. The Alabama 1'lnln i, Tonr readers must take all they bear about tbe settlement of tbe Alabama claims oum or are talit. The whole affair Is very much confused. At tbe 8tate Departineut they know very little, and that they seem disposed to keep to themselves. Iteverdy Johnson's despatches are, like bla drinks, somewhat mixed. 'The Secretary of State la considerably annoyed at some of the er, cathedra statements concerning the settlement of the Alabama claims made by certain credulous and Inexperienced newspa per correspondents.

General Ornnt and euioerat!c Oflloe Holders. I bope for their own cakes tbat none of your Democratic frlenda who are In offloe will lay tbe "flattering unction" to their aouls tbat they will be retained under President Grant. An Impression bas gone abroad In some way tbat Grant will be exceedingly tender with the feel ings of those who denounced and opposed him during tbe late canvas-. He will not make a clean sweep, It Is said, bnt will apportion tbe office! pro rata between bis friuuds and his enemies. To those who know anyiUlng of the man, aothlng could be more absurd. Ills natuie Is positive, not negative. He Is a eordlal hatsr, when necessary, as well ns an ardent friend. Moreover, GraDt has no faith In the Democrats In private conversation be speaks ef them habitually aa "Copperheads." Said a friend to blm recently, "General, I see tbe Democratle papers are claiming yon as their President." "Ah !" said Grant, "I never see them now nor read them. The lat,t Democratic paper I saw bad an editorial denouncing me as a drunkard." I'liniige fieersnnry. There never was a time, perbaps, when a complete change In all United States offloUls was more needed than at present. From the President down It wonid be a poslve advantage to the Government to have a clean sweep made, sons to commence de novo. Daring Lincoln's term a number of half-hearted Unionists and secret Rebels were kept in oiD.ce on the con ciliation theory. Nearly nil of these bave managed to retain their bold under Johnson. Tbcir numbers bave rather been Increased than diminished The quarrel between tbe Presi dent and Congress bas been a fruitful source cf ' demorallzptlon among United Bttt.es ofllclals. Nearly; every one of them came into office under false pretenses. At.the White House tbey were either represented by their friends or themselves as "Johnson men," i. ., Democrats. When tbey came to the 8 juate tbey were, of course, not ouly Republicans, but radicals. When their commUslons were safely In their poekets they became politically what ever tbelr selfish personal interests made them. They were under two masters the President and tbe Senate and fully responsible to neither. A few, Indeed, seenred their places on the "tra ding" which I bave noticed above. But this was scarcely less demorallalng to the public service than the "false pretense" plan. It was nothing more than a bartering of offices. Sena tor Cameron, for example, baa a number of frier cs whom be wants appointed to oflloe. being a llepubllcan, he bas little Influence at tDe White Honse. He goes to Senator Bueka lew and proposes a "swap.". "Buekalew," says Cameron, "you bave several appulntmeuts hanging In the Senate here, awaiting conflr na tion. They are all Copperheads, I know; but if yon will go to tbe President and get him to send In the names of a few of my friends, I will see tbat your nominations are confirmed." Buekalew, like every other Demooratlo Sena tor, eagerly took advantage of this arrange ment, Xvery such Interview as that which I have Illustrated, and there were hundreds of them, uniformly ended with the exoianatlou on tbe part of tbe Democratic Senator, "It'a a bargain," and ao It was a bargain and nithlng else. Is Is any wonder that uuder tbeue fir. cumstauces the Internal Kevenue aud other departments of the public service are fairly rot ten with corruption T Treuibliugr Auionir Employe lu Hie le I;irlmcuM. Previous to the nomination of General Grant nearly U the t mployeh lu the several Execu tive departments here were either Copper head! or political uouriescvlptp, which Is about the same thing. Theie wtre a few Republi cans, but tney uveu ia pbrpeiuai terror or being "reported" by home ambitions member of the "Johnson Depart raeutal Club," and dl. inlsflttd. After the nomination of Grant at Chi cago there were unmistakable signs of a "revival" among some of tbe more experleuoed weather-cocks In tte departments. When It became known that the Democratto Conven tion at New York had oommltted the liinuder ol nominating Seymour an Hisir, the "awakening" te?an to spread, and Ihe 'original Grant tneu" were marvellously numerous, all of a sudden. Political o inver aloaa became mailers of dally oooarrenoe. Grant's triumphant election couflruiod tho-e "yoiiDg converts" in tbe radical fullh more cer tainly than tbe laylng-nn of bunds by a hun dred Bishop. Siiil there are donots and fears n the minus of some, as la frequently the ohhb with olo sinners, even after they btve volun tarily Joined church., Tney do not firnet bow tbey prophesied ttbnut the great "reaction." and bow tbey bet that "Grant would not carry more than two Stales." Ia abort, thev are troubled with a certain "fear'nl looking for of Judgment aud fiery indignation," which will noi allow tbelr consciences tbat repose which eveiy Government official should enjiy. Nor are they altogether mistaken. The day of reckoning Is sure to come. JoHKmus. rOlLADELrOIl IT0CX KICU1KGK BALKS, DEC. 1 Haportsd by D Haven A Brn No. 4A 8.
