doubtful in every view, whether this appointment will
be made Then again. the old story of the intention Of
Mr. Brakeman to retire is revived with the purpose OF
accommodating Mr. King date from France) with post
because it would disturb the balance OF Powe IN the
cabinet and would present too strong tendency oil par

Which will he he iavorite of Mr.. Burke for the
