We learn by the arrival of the Nova Scotian,
with news from New York on the 6th inst., that
the difficulty of making diplomatic appointments
is not yet over in America. The Senate indeed
appears to have grown more moderate in their
conduct since the conclusion of the Impeachment
Trial, but the Foreign Affairs Committee has now
begun to make itself troublesome, and its members
have recommended the rejection of the nomina-
tion of General M'CLELLAN as Minister to Great
Britain, and of Mr. Cox as Minister to Austria.
The mere fact of a Minister having been
nominated by the present Government is
quite sufficient to call forth a protest
on the part of some politicians, and the newly-ap-
pointed Ministers to England and Austria seem to
hare the benefit of this feeling. Mr. THORNTON is
meanwhile comfortably installed at Washington,
and has begun inquiring about the Renewal of the
Reciprocity Treaty. Mr. SEWARD 18 reported to
have said that the action of Congress in the matter
would be necessary. We should hope that com-
mon-sense counsels may prevail this year, and that
having indulged their feelings against England,
wi, hout any advantage to themselves, the
Radicals may consent to allow the inte-
rests of the commercial community to be
considered. The merchants of Detroit, who might
reasonably be supposed to know more about the
matter than the angry gentlemen who meet at
asbington, made, it will be remembered, a very
spirited and sensible protest against the rupture of
the commercial arrangements between Canada and
the United States ; but at that time the Radicals car-
ried everything before them, and England was the
object of their supreme displeasure. Times have
changed since then, and every succeeding election
shows how strongly the tide of public opinion has
set against the faction which has worked so much
mischief. The late elections in Oregon form
the latest triumph of the Democrats. An unex-
pected success has attended their candidate for
the State membership for Congress. A sharp
contest and a full vote resulted in the success of
the Democrat by a majority of nearly 2,000, and
nearly all the Legislature and the county officers
belonged to the same party. At the last election,
two years ago, the Republican candidate obtained
a seat in Congress by a majority of 55, and in the
State Legislature the Republicans secured a majo-
rity of seven members. The Democrats, as might
be expected, are greatly elated at this result, which
they accept as indicative of the votes which the
Pacific States will give in the Presidential election.
They call it satirically ,t the first gun for General
GRANT."

Yesterday was a grand day with the Merchant
Taylors' Company, and her MAJESTY'S Ministers
were entertained at a Banquet in the hall at Thread-
needle-street. The affair was very brilliant, and
the whole of the entertainment reflected the greatest
credit upon those conurned in it. The Premier,
and nearly all the Ministers, were present, besides a
numerous assemblage of the conspicuous members
of the Conservative party. The guests were nu-
merous, and the general arrangements altogether
conduced greatly to the effect of the
evening. It will be in the knowledge of
many that the Merchant Taylors' Company
is one of the most time-honoured of all the Guilds
for which the city of London has been famous, and
last evening they appeared in a spirit and splen-
dour worthy of the more magnificent days of, their
history. The Hall itself is well fitted for a scene
of this kind, being lofty, and admirably complete
n its various parts. The history and traditions of
the party are Conservative in the fullest acceptation
of the term, and on more than one occasion the
party has made it a standing-ground for political
manifestations on the eve of any great crisis that ty:.-
curred. There is ample reason for this Company
making an effort to welcome the present Administra-
tion, for it has conferred honour on the cause by its
spirited action respecting Reform. The popu-
larity in which the present Ministry is held was
amply proved yattrday, for the Premier was ex-
tremely well received on arriving, and again in the
hall ; and some of the leading members of the
Administration also obtained a cordial recognition.
In proposing the " Army" the Master said that the
Conservative prestige in war had been fitly borne
out by the recent success in Abyssinia ; and Sir
J. PAKINGTON, in returning thanks, made some
interesting observations. Ile truly zbserved that it
was not the mere fact of victory that was so gra-
tifying in this affair, bnt also the circumstances

fortune. This, it may be said, is a case to be
paralleled in various countries, and such is as-
suredly the case ; but, unfortunately, here the
evil reaches very h7gh and habitually escapes ex-
posure. The papers are very prudent, and love not
to compromise their friends and make things un-
pleasant. A public scandal seens •repugnant to
their feelings, howeve7 necessary it may be to the
interests of public morality, and they are glad to
smother it up. What about the Bologna forgeries?
A certain number of persons have been arrested,
including some of a social position which exempted
them from suspicion, and rendered it most impro-

of the affair, bat it will be far from unprecedented
if nothing more be heard of it.

Meanwhile General GRANT and Speaker COLFAX
have been waited upon by the Committee of the
Chicago Convention, and officially informed of their
nomination for the two highest offices in the State.

General HAWLEY, who made the announcement,
said to GRANT that they were sure be would not
impose upon the unwilling representatives of the
people any policy of his own devising, for he had
said that " the will of the people was the law of the
land." General GRANT, who never exhibits any of
the rashness of the soldier, but always main-
tains the cautious reserve of the statesman,
contented himself with agreeing to this statement,
and saying be would write a letter of acceptance.
Three days later the letter was published, and
exhibits the same caution, and is also, we must ac-
knowledge, characterised by good sense. While
Congress is rashly pledging the future, and making
the elections of national representatives dependent

evening the Master made an appropriate speech, in
which he dwelt upon the character of the Adminis-
tration generally, and concluded by associating
with the toast " the name of the right hon. gentle-
man at the head of the Government, whose com-
manding genius, great eloquence, and unshaken
resolution had commanded success in spite of
the enormous and hostile attacks which
have been made against him, and whose
good temper and tact enabled him to rule
the storm, and, if not to reach port, at least
successfully to keep to the open sea." Mr. Ms-
RAELI was received with the most unbounded ap-
plause on presenting himself to the assembly, and
spoke in his usual felicitous strain on such

The Irish Government have determined to re-
lease Mr. Pigott, of the Irishman. On Tuesday
the Governor of Richmond Bridewell received
authority from the Lords Justices (acting in the
absence of the Lord-Lieutenant) to release him from
custody on his perfecting the recogainnces required
by his sentence. This concession amounts to a
commutation of punishment by one-half. Mr.
Pigott was sentenced to twelve months' imprison-
meat, and has spent exactly six in the Bride-
well.

on rigid obedience to specified restrictions, General
GRANT justly declares that "In times like the
or at least eminently present it is im-
proper,impossible, to lay down a policy to be adhered to, right
or wrong, through an administration of four
years." He adds that " new political issues not
foreseen are constantly arising, the views of the pub-
lic on old ones are constantly changing, and a purely
administrative officer should always be left free to
execute the will of the people." This is to say, in
other words, that GRANT, as candidate for the Ra-
dical suffrages, accepts the position which the House
of Representatives has marked out for the occupant
of the White House, and that he will, if elected,
consider himself merely "an administrative officer,"
whose first duty is to consult " the will of the
people," as expressed, of course, through their re-
presentatives. Happily, judging from the turn
which the elections aze taking, the will of the
Congress is not likely to be so arbitrary, so oppres-
sive,-or so delf7seeking as it has been of late years.
So far as the refusal to pledge- himself to any par--
ticular policy is concerned, General GRANT. is wise.

combined respect for past traditions with a due re-

Mr. A. M. Sullivan (of the iVation) has just de-
livered a lecture on " Hofer and the Patriot Leaders
of the Tyrol." Ile described it as a contribution to
the " training up of young Irishmen in the way
they should go as citizens and Irishmen." " Hofer,'
he said, " was for a considerable time concealed,
but at length a Judas, a Corydon was found to
clutch the Bavariin blood money." Mr. Sullivan
would say to his audience, in Ilofer's words, " Oh,
friends, pray, pray always that God may preserve
to us the old religion and brotherly love throughout
the land. They had heard of late that the clergy
of the Catholic Church, the teaching, autho-
rity, and influence of that Church, had been
adverse to liberty, tending to national abasement,
inbniission," and slavery. Ab, my countrymen,
