Av»ril21, ittl 'Th® question of a revival of the right! +%t suffrage In the DlsrJct of Columbia tlM been much agitated of lat«. It has m claimed fn behalf «f fhe move*', Mitnt that the disorderly element that ttWd te**i»»k« thing* hewT'on •lection days liM been criminated-- scattered through the country, and that abetter i Isig'•)»$& hits taken place. On every oocatlon, however, when t'-iere has been a chance to do any voting, the re salt haa shown that the same rowdy •leoaents remains here and is ready to Mime to the front on the slightest en­ couragement. The beauties of suffrage Were more recently presented to Wash­ ington when the "electiye franchise" w^exercied some evenings ago in the election of delegates to Chicago. The convention was marked by a disgrace­ ful scene of confusion and riot, and a noisy clamor for suffrage by a boister­ ous mob. There are various causes for tliia #tate of things at the National Oaptial. For one, a very considerable portion of the white voting population ten or twelve thousand at least--are government employes, who, under onr wonderful civil service reform system, dare not accept citizenship in W ashing* ton, but mast hold themselves as citizen in the state to which they are accredited. Another cause for the preponderance of the voting roughs is the fact that the influx of population" ©Mate yearfi that goes to making the new Washington, is largely com­ posed of people of culture.--scientific nnd literary workers, students, inva­ lids, people of wealth and leisure,-- people who com6 here to follow in quiet their various pursuits of study, work, health, or social enjoyment, and who have not the slightest idea »f taking a hand in ward polities, and contesting supremacy with tli«'4razzer" voters. This primary election haa* put rather a quietus upon the move- ment for popular suffrage In Washing­ ton, and it is safe to predict that the clamor at the doors of Congress for the right of elective franchise will not be resumed for some time. Joseph Medill of the Chicago Trhi- «me,*©ne of the most distinguished editors in the west, has been in Wash­ ington all the week, and his visit lias been tho cause of considerable, concern among politicians and presidential aspirants. Mr. MedlN's political career lias been very eccentric; and, recogniz­ ing accountability to no one, he feel* at liberty to change his mind and shift his political anchorage wherever hr likes. But his good nature is prover­ bial and he is always ready to"kis* and Make up" with a political opponent. Atone time lie was was an ardent admirer of General .Grant, and they were great chums, but for the last four •r five years their relations have been otherwise, For years Logan and Medill were at sword's points. But when Logan lest the Inter-Ocean, which had been his organ for years, he made up with Medill, and they have •ince been quite intimate, In 18G3 Medill superted Grant for the presi­ dency; in 1872 he abandoned him and went over to the Liberals in support of Groeley; and in 1876 he fought Blaine with great bitterness. He started out in this campaign giving a hearty support to Logan, but since he came to Washington he has abandoned Logan ajid joined,tjie Blaine boomers, giving lagan's friends a fit of the blues. This eoaqnest ot Mr. Blaine Is the {result of IlkS •'personal magetism" about which JM mucti has been said, Medill had not beea at the Arlington Hotel twenty- four hours before Blaine called upon |iim. It was an unusual thing for the ox-Secretary to do. but it was not without effect. Medill dined at the Mercy manison, Blaine's residence, the next day, and since then he and Blaine have been mnch together, advising and consulting about Mr, Blaine's book, prehapo. Considerable agitation has lately been given to the subject of Mr^Blaine'% peculiar accumulations. He was worth ftt least a quarter million dollars when lie entered Congress in 1863 and he lias been engaged in many good enter­ prises since that time, lie bought productive coal land near Pittsburg, besides other good property, to invefct liis money in, and hi* judgment has rarely been at fault in such matter. Then, the rental of his new mansion at the hf»d of Massachusetts avenue to Mr. Letter, the Chicago millionaire waa a bit of economy not barren in re­ unite. Lent is over. The lienrt of the great social life of the Captial is freed from religious restraint and begins to throb With it# wonted energy. Holy week was very strickly observed, and 'Washington society devoted itself to penitence and prayer. So much so that it seemed the more quiet after the half-gay Lenten weeks, in which there was no exciting Terpsichorcan Whirl, but just enough dinner parties, tnuslcales and teas, for real enjoy­ ment.
