A Mr.. Gideon Wells, of the north, takes Mr.
Browns place, we understand. Mr. Crawford
would have lost perhaps $1,000 more but for the in
fuence of his fellow Pennsylvania, Mr. Bucha-

relations.

Is appeased, and Mr. Crawford is satisfied Fur.
thermore, the appointment OF Col. Medill will give
universal satisfaction He is qualified for any post
worthy OF any promotion-ftted for any office
under the government, 1t will have good effect
in concentrating the Ohio delegation in favor OF the
organ tor the prlntng-some OF the Indiana delega-
ton, with reference 10 Mr.. Brown. The whole ar
raneement Is judlclous.
Mr.. Brown, however, met with singular sort of
congratulation tonight on his good fortune While
IN conversation with Mr.. VIM. Cost Johnson, at
Coleman's, Mr.. Hart, tor some years past the Wash
lagton correspondent Of the NeU York Erening
Post came up, and after apology to Mr. John
son, drew Mr.. Brown one side, and said TO him,

gentleman has since been watching his opportunity
TO bring the chi eff clerk of the Sixth Auditor to a
settlement. Hence the alteration. We don't think
II ought to stop here.
Mr. Hart "a FAR s mir oh az ox,ends az ga

light John G. Rlves, (whom mention on account
OF the disparity IN SIZE between lie two men. for
there 10 no more amlabe or peaceable man Than
M. Rives,) but Hart would not hesitate TO fight him
II even Elves should knock his hat off without an
apology. We have only TO say, in conclusion
