Sabin, of Minnesoln, is the successor of Windom. Hs managed madam's canvars so loyally tha. tho latter, when he found himself defeated, gave all his energies to the election of hie friend. So Sa bin la in the senate at the age of forty, and basjust been made chairman of the national re publican committee for two or three reasons. He is a millionaire. The republicans believe In the', kind of "soap” whose use deflics char acter.: The great parly of moral Ideas con fesses Its Inability to win victory by any other propeiis than debauching the morals of tho people. Sabin Is a millionaire In middle life, because the foundation of his fortune was laid in a prison contract. He tumbled int< life on a Connecticut mattress, and driftet in c.^y manhood to Minnesota. He la a brainy fellow, with the adamant cheek and assurance that has made tha wooden nutmeg state notorious. But ho has some money In bis pocket,great orsmall.that he got from con tract prison labor. Ills sad to record It, but what la sald.of him by thoso who know him must’.e written. It la said that he is a great or fttiiiaer, which means of course that he tnows when and where to distribute tho "soup." He was a Dlaine man in I860, and whon Conkling jumped on tho desk of tho Tribune correspondent, and lightened the exposition building with thumierleas sheet lightning for Grant nnd his faithful SOU, Sa lmi shouted: "Take him out,” in a voice heard all over tho enclosure. Decently lie has been interviewed, and has declared hlm- eolf for Arthur. Tho fact that h’rye with drew from tho contest for chairman ns soon as it was apparent that Sabin could be utmu- itnonsly chosen, however, makes It plain tiiat the head of the committee is for iliaino, nnd that the Author crowd lias been outwitted. | TiiaraxDtKo avsiacu.

Thia bit of gossip is going the rounds as to Mrs. Speaker Carlisle: Lost Saturday evening, ut the earnest request ol Hepicsontutive Willis's wife and tL« wives of other members of the bouse living at the Metropolitan hotel, Mrs. Carlisle spent the evening with them. Ail waited together in one of the parlors to hear tha returns from the caucus, anti if any stranger had sought to pick out in the group the wife of one of the candidates for the speakership, Mrs. Carlisle would probably, owing to her perfectly composed manner, have been the last one selected, for several of the other ladies were in the highest pitch of excitement. When the nomination which was telephoned to the office of Ihe hotel, was announced by the little son of Kcprivnntatlre Blount, tail the ladies except Mrs. Carlisle burst out with expressions of pleasure, while only one additional flush on her cheek showed her happiness, as she cor dially thanked, ill a quiet way, thoee who hastened to congratulate her. No one showed less excitement during the long con teet for nomination for the speakership than did Mr,. Carlisle, who from the time her bus- band decided to-be a candidate, after the novel election of lust year, up to December 1st, when lie was nominated in the caucus, raid calmly whenever tho subject wss broanhed to her: "I am juat as certain of bis being speaker as 1 am that I'm alive.
