WASHINGTON CRY, Aug. 25, lS4I.
In the House this morning, the debate
on the bill making appropriation for the
Post Office Department, was resumed ii
committee of the whole.
The opposition to the bill was passed on
the alleged ground that the Post Master
General was not man of b busRess, for
if he were, he would, like Mr. Kendall,
make the department meet its owe
wants. 1t was urged that Mr. Granger
was utterly unqualified for the Office he
holds, being mere politician, and who
OF course replaced the heads he cut off
by set of brawlins men, who based their
claims on political services.
Mr.. Gordon said those who were turn.
ed out, were removedon the alleged
ground Of intsrmeddling in politics,
and yet Mr.. Granger filled the vacancies
by men whose only claim was their having
intermeddled with politics, Mr. g., among
other instances, alluded TO the remoys
of Robinson on political grounds, anC
whose place Notwithstanding had beer
filed by Wing editor He then argu
ed that there always would be dObls OWN,
by the Department so long as brawiinl
beer house politicians occupied the desk
instead Of hard working, compsten
clerks.
Mr. Arnold, Of Tennessee, followed. -
He commenced by stating that, in biz
opinion, the loco foco party in the House
were now the Administration party, lo
they claimed the President as theirs
