WASHINGTON, Sept 4, 1876.
propose in this letter to give you some notice OF
the Hon. Mr.. Bancroft. Mr.. B. is OF the ordinary
height, lightly made, gentlemanly in his appearance,
and with heightened, lofty. intellectual arr. He
can be easily bland and kindly in his address, or
freezing as Greenland Although Mr.. B. may be
somewhat OF the martinez among his clerks, yet
think he will introduce many beneficial reforms into
the service, Of which, the adjustment Of fog
glng and more happy proprlety of costume, he has
already done. hailed the appointment of this dis
tingulshed scholar and historian, believing it one of
the few honors paid TO genius and capacity; but
must confess democrat, that he has not exactly
come up to the standard. When Purser Zantzinger
was struck from the rolls of the Navy by Mr.. Ma
son, then Secretary of that Department, President
Tyler offered the vacancy to the Secretary q young
the indelicacy OF the act and declined it. As soon,
however, as Mr.. Bancroft is fairly seated In his
place, young Mason, who most certainly looks if
he had not reached his majority, is made Purser
any and every shape. Again MIR. Harris, political
editor from Tennessee, is honored with the next
pursership. This would not be SO bad if Tennessee

Mr.. Bancroft has under his immediate control
some fifty clerks, and although they were all OPP
posed 10 MIN yet ne mas made but
two changes in all. Mr. B. processes to be a radi-
cal democrat, and if this be true, how can he keen
the enemies OF the administration and himself
around him 1t is all folly to talk OF the intricacies
and difficulties Of filling particular bertns in theNavy,
or any department OF public affairs. There Is no
trouble that sagacious and correct accountant
would not easily overcome Public opinion ex-
poets Mr. B. to make radical changes in his depart
ment, and justice demands it,
have heard 1t rumored very generally that the
present intelligent and most indefatigabe Register
OF the Treasury, Hon. Mr.. Glllet, may be called to
the COMPREHENSIVE place of Mr.. Mccullough.
The office requires man to be sound lawyer,
familiar with details or generals, and OF mind that
can grasp all the circumstances OF doubtful and diff
laconcally Mr.. Gilet is equal to all this, and the
present condition of the Registers Department,
where there had been but little order and arrange
ment, and the accounts of certain clerks were years
behind now show very different state OF things.
"Order relgns IN Warsaw" In the event OF Mr..
Glets transfer to the COMPREHENSIVE, Chancellor
Bibb will make dead set upon the Registry.
At present he is in for the ludgeship made vacant
by the recent demise of Judge Thurston. The Chan
