Mr. ?Platt Is a shrewd political worker and a k?tea observar, but h" Is essentially sup??rflcial la ; Is ss ,rk an?l in his observations. Thoroughly cTMtertallatlC in his pi.itical beliefs, he Is ?0 ?? instituted as to be utterly unable to perceive the tremendous practical importance of moral torean. In ransaquan. s .?f this defe??t in his naiuiv he was led to eunslder his position not only secure, but so strong as to warrant him la utidertakitiir, to ??.insmn-t a Hepubllcan machina ?j?i the lines ?if th'ise of Hill and Croker, which ss-.-r. d?str?s >?1 by the people last November. In [?ur.-iian.-e >.f this plan h.- placed himself in the way ?if reform. It is not yet three months since Mr. Platt la? dulsted In this stock-taking, but if he were to re? pa?Vt the operation to-night he would find that the shrinkage In Wall Street securities since the Haring failure is hardly a circum? stance In comparison with the way In which his political fortunes have dwindled away.' L*?vt P. Morton has given notice to ths whole country that he, and he alone, I* (3ov .?rn ?r of this Slate. In so doing he dealt Mr. Platt a mortal bliw. The effect of thl? declara*. ?I ?n was terrific. The Senate can no longer be de pen?ied upon; the Assembly has asserted Its in dependen?e, and even Its Speaker Is ready at ana* moment to g<?: on the other side of the fenc?. The Stat?. machine, to be sur?., still look? to No. ??> Hr.adway for directions, but it Is In such a fright? fully ?lemorali/.-.l ? nditl?in as to be of little Im? portance, even with such "??talesmen a? Hackett an! Paya in charge of It Tn?- rotent ?afayotasf New-York. Brooklyn, Buffai? and Albany, whom Mr. ?Platt enpected to control by capturing tha local ma??h!ne?. are acting a* though such an In? dividual as Platt svas without corporeal exist? ??n,?e. It iii an tind"niable fact that Mr. Plan's moat; available remaining a as-et at the present time la Will, un H. era.'.?. It la hardly too much to say, in I?-. ?1, that the liar, ret S?iuare reformer Is autw? Btantlally all that ha ha* left with which to fight the reform force? tha: are clamoring for propos; legislation and Mr. Platt's retirement from th? position he nt ill essays to occupy in party politl?n. Thi? is no fanciful statement; It la entirely In an? cunlance with the fact*. Without Mr. Grace aa a weapon, Mr Platt's arsenal would be practically empty, Reduce that individual's prominence la Nesv-York City politics; deal with him so that ha ran m longer be in the minds uf the Republican? of the State, a menace to the party in the metrop? olis, and Mr. Platt passas into political bank? ruptcy, s., f ,r as rrf rds this Legislature. Then Is no qaeatlOH that the Republican Sena? tor* and th.- Republican A*semblymen, or, at ?east, the overwhelmlna: majority of them, are hnn.'stly In fa\-..r ,.f making a creditable record. and they fully appreciate the Importance of glv-' ing New-York ?City what it has asked for In the era*" Of renn dial legislation. There is a ?great ?lea! more independence In both branches of the I.egis'.atti-e than is generally supposed, or than has been made t ? appear by what has been ?aid reganling it. Mr. Plait has his followers, but ther.- is not a corpora"?? guard of them w.io ssiiild go with him one step beyond the Un? Which .? ?uld be shown to mark the boundery of th-? trii.. interest or th?' Republican party. This svas weil illustrated In the ?ase of Mr. Hrook fleld. Mr Platt, it will be remembered, came up here to make an lsaue on his appointment. H? tried his best to raily his forces. Including th? Governor, but he fai'ed most ignominlously. Kven his "Old Guard" rebelled. They saw at once the folly of attempting to arouse any feel Ins; over the sele??tl n f,?r offices of Republican? In good standing. Perreiving thl?, Mr. Platt fell back up?m svhat many good pesple in New-York City are disposed to look upon as a scarecrow, bUI which is tak-n svith more seriousness here. This may as svell b. understo ?d first as last. Tint Republicans <?f th?? State are really disturbed at th? B/ay In which they think Mr. Grace'? hand ha? been Itrenp^MlMld by Ma>??r Strong. They know Mr. Gra??e and they ?listrust him thoroughly. It is not too much to nay that when n?ick" Poro-' eroy de-lar.- i a; the charities Building confer? ence Hut be ss -?uld n? s ?.?n trust Cn-ker a* Grace, b? voiced th.. sentiment which prevail? among R?v aubUcans generally They have learned from ex peiien.e fiat Mr. s?tace Is a dangerous element In p liti.s. He Is ur abler than Croker, and ha has the faculty of using h ?nes: men and reform m >s< imtits for Ms purposes that nuke? him, at^ least in the opinion of rural voter?, a man to b?' drea ?.?1 a hundr?dfold more than Croker. They cannot understand why he is in such favor with Mayor Strong. It Is ?sell known that he was In consultation ?"1th Mr. Gllroy personally and through Mauri?'.' J. Power for months beforej election With a siess- t.? combining torete In favor of the n??ruination for Mayor of that eminently ? -:?. ;a'..|e figurehead, l':-?i,-ii. R. Coudert. They als.i kn .ss- that the rsptldlatl? n <?f Mr. Gilroy by th?' Tammany Kxc.utlve Committee svas the sol? r.-.Mii f.?r Mi. ??race's retirement from the pn>* |..?;-.?d alliui re w:th Tammany.

It Is a kr.owle.lge of these facts that perplexes th?? r?p?re?entatlves of the country dis? tricts and makes them listen to Mr. Platt's eour? sel when be ?advises opposition to the New-York :'.'??rni bill?.
