GJfhe last news from Washington, places it be-
yond doubt that Major Henry Lee, has been appoint
ed by President Jackson, Consul General to Algiers.
This has excited some amusing speculations at
the Metropolis. ase says that the Hero determined
to reward the Major for shivering various lances in
bis service, could think of no situation so well adapt
Ito his tastes Algiers. Another account says,
that the Moior is honourably banished to Algiers,
that he may have leisure to prosecute the Hero's
biography, which he could not we'll do in the whrl
of politics at home; others insist that Duff Jealous
of the Majors influence the President, which be
is DESTROYS of monopolizng to himself, manag ed to
get him packed OF to Algiers. But while accounts
vary in the motives they assign for the Majors ap-
pointmsnt, al of them in the extreme and
even beautiful pr6ey and fitness ofthe thing itself!
There is an ada station in the appointment, which
speaks much for the Hero's sagacity and knowledge
of things. Major Lees being sent MINISTER
PLENIPOTEN'TIARY to the Dey of Algiers, re-
deems President Jackson's faults in the appointment
of Kendall and some others.

more' and The appointment OF Mr.. Dahney S. Carr
editor of the Baltimore Republican, in his place.
Barney Is son of the late gallant commodore Barney
lcaied by the British Birthstone Barney who with
his little nautical band nearly cut to pieces in
defence Of Washingtonin 1914; that being in fact,
the only defence made. AT that time, Mr. Dabney
8. Carr was gong TO school,
They tell story of Dahney, which we have some
reason to think true; namely, that when Mr.. Adams
was made President in lsa5, Dabney became appi-
cant for the post of American consul at Caraccus.
AT that time and as long as his hopes of office were
awe, our friend Dabncy thought highly of Mr.. Adams
but no sooner was the consarship otherwise dispo-
sed Of then he fell foul of the coalition, swore there
vas bargain, and set up the Republican. But Dab
ney ought to console himself with the seeetion that
many others standing higher than 5he,3id the same
thing. <s
AT last however, he has brought his p d pretty
market. For youth of three or four sif esfy to
be placed over the head Of ucritoriouS 5n aud
officer, of the gallant old BrimstonS azney,
with snug salary Of $4,000 3OOO is no c6Itemp-
tible degree of distinction. We dare say Dabney
upon reflection, is quite delighted that he did not
succeed in his application for the Caracas consular
ship. He has done much better for himself, under
the patronage of his ''estimabe friend Gen. Duff
Green. We hope he will forgive Adams and Clay
from this time forever.
OF Mr.. Carr himself we know nothing personally;
all we do know, is through the medium of the Balli-
more papers, particularly that edited by the accom-
plished, and ''dare devil" Edward Pinkncy now de.
ceased. Many time and oft, have we thrilled with
the resound ofthe scorpion LASH inflicted by Pinkney
and opened the next days papers with sensation
pecng to see the retort of the courteous DabDey
perhaps the list Of casualties by flood or field, In
creased. Our sensibility however, was supereroga-
tory. All we do know of Mr. Carr, jusfes the mos,
unqualified assertion that he had earthly claim to
the office, either Of experience oge, capacity, or
vice to bis country. a vapid, bonstine, and loud
talking coxcomb, his paper has been disting

er merit that enlightened the Understandings or bet
tered the heart. The most indsGriminate and full
some praise of Jackson, the most slnderous and i'm
pudent abuse Of Henry Clay, and Mr. Adams and all
who dared to think them honest and iunocent cnnsti-
tuted the alpha and omega of Cars claims to pub
lie and lucrative office. How much Dabney deserved
even on this account is best explained by the anec-
dote we have told, and tho truth Of which we INA
CINE, he " i'll scarcely deny.
Thus the Hero psrseveres in rewardine the Ed
itors who supported him. What confidence the peo-
pie can have in the Press when they see it's eonduc-
tors fighting solely for individual profit and office re-
mains to be tested. No such stab has ever been
aimed at the purity and independence Of the Ameri-
can Press.

the Spectator" there ere none to be pi'ied more

tain distinguished parsonage, will, in a short
time, feel the Juslness Of this obscrva ion,
A list Of memorials, and petitions presented
by the Cavaliers at the Restoration, is given
which admirably hits off The rage for Office
hunting, and the sroundless, and often absurd
pretentions which are raised TO enforce these
requests. One prtitioned for ColouePs com-
mission, for having cursed Cromwell the day
before his death. One prayed for Captains
Commission in the Guards, in consideration Of
his having worn his hat for ten years in the
loyal cavalier cock. And one E II. sets forth
that che the said Z. Fl hath had six duels. and
four and twenty boxing matches, in defence OF
his majes,y's title, and tina, he received such

for from tina, day TO this" and for these merits
and sufferings he prays tina, he may have "ihe
place Of receiver of the taxes, collector Of the

or whatever else he shall be thought qualified

II is in such ways as these, that hungry and
greedy office seekers always follow up and har-
rass those from whom they expect employ

char, or compass than self interest; and they
trim their sails so, as generally 10 Iun before

many Just such ridiculous pleas will be urged
in their behalf! Ii will not be going too far TO
say, that The cringirg, fawning, supplica,ing

the days Of the second Charles. The editor Of

also, like 20 see appended TO it, succinet ae-
count of the Recommendations urged in their
