POLITICAL GOSSIP.

One of the good stories of the day, and one
most creditlble to the President and adminisra-
ton, is connected with the application for The
restoration of two midshipmep, dismissed by Mr.
Polk for being engaged in duel. The Secre-
tary of the Navy, in Cabinet meeting this morn
ing informed the President that he had read the
petition, and considered that the midshpncn
ought not TO be restored. So thought the Cabi-
net. al am very glad of H." said the President,
" for if the whole Cabinet had thought otherwise,
would not have consented TO re-appoint these
gentlemen. hate duels, hate fighting, hate
wars, and will have no duelllng men about me if
| can help it,"
General Taylo's Beneuoience Washington
letter writer tells the following story of Gen.
Taylor: A venerable white haired man, los
years old, having tottered up TO the white house,
early in the morning. had the good fortune to
meet the soldier President almost at the thresh.
hold. The centenarian introduced himself; told
Gen. Taylor that he was feeble and that his blood
was almost died up in his VEINS tor the SHOWS
Of one hundred and five winters and the effects
of hard service in the wars Of our country had
left him but short remnant of the evening of
his long and evenful life. Gen. Taylor, moved
by the patriarcba years and voice, aud simplici-
" of the man, shook him warmly by the hand
and said; "Well, grandfather, am CAD to see
you. Have you been to BREAKFAST? The old
man replied that he had not. "Well, then, you
must come and take some breakfast with me-"
No, your time is too precious. | desired only

good cup of coffee for breakfast, aud come up

And, leaning upon his staff, the old man, older
than this republic of twenty millions of people,
by thirty years, went, with grateful heart, along
his way.

FIRE.

At four o'clock on Sunday morning fire broke
out in the rear rooms Of p. M. harrington, IN the
second and third stories third and fourth in the
rcar) of the large new building near the head OF
State Street, owned by Town g. Hall and East
man g. Dapfortb. The fire was high up, and
when discovered had got fast hold between the
ceiling and outside boarding, and the wind was
fresh and in direction to sweep large section
of the business quarter of the town. The pros.
pect was gloomy enough, but after an admirably
contested battle of nearly two hours, the fire and
wind had TO knock under to the constant and
well directed streams of water from the engines.
We never have witnessed harder fire fight any
where. The fire spread IN the ceiling OF about
one-sixth Of the building and through the
entire attic of the Patriot printing Office, Ia wood
en- building adjoniug,) and yet was conquered
without destroying floors or roof. The damage
by water was probably greater than by fire. Our
townsmen may well be proud OF their fire en-
gines, and the men who worked them, and thank.
ful for this wonderful escape from great disas-
ter.
The loss of Eastman g. Daniorth, on buildings
and contents, we understand is estimated at from
$500 to $1,000; they were fully insured Mr..
Farrington's loss in goods is about $500; he had
no insurance, although he had applied at vari-
GUS Offices He was excluded by the rule Of the
Vermont Mutual, limiting insurance on single
block to a certain amount-and being excluded
there, other companies chose not TO insure. The
rule has been very hard upon Mr.. T. We new
cr could see any justice in it, nor any necessity
for i, so long as the rae Of insurance is fairly
measured by the risk. Other persons suffered
slightly by water and the removal of goods.

RAILROADS.

o. The Burlington Free Press severely con.
demns the Vermont Patriot for the numerous ar,
tccs published by the latter of late concerning
Gov. Paine and the Central Railroad and in
the course of its animadyersion expresses sur
prise that The Waichmdn has not had hand in
the affair. As we are thus called odt, it is prop
TO say: first, that the Patriots articles have
appeared to us to be SO papably malicious as to
be comparatively harmless secondly, that they
have been so palpably personal attacks that we
ought not to interfere without the authority OF
the persons assailed; and thirdly that a public
contest OF any character or for any purpose would
be, in our judgment, injurious to all concerned,
and beneficial or gratifying to nobody but those
who are hostile to the Central road, to its stock.
holders, and to the people interested in its COM
pletion and success
appropriation for Surveys At the meeting
holden at the Grand Jury room on Saturday eve
ming, it was voted unanimously to recommend
an appropriation Of 5000 by the town of Mont
peier for surveying the two railroad routes be-
tween Montpelier and the Passumpsc Road, on
condition that the money shall be refunded to
the town whenever railroad is constructed on
either route. Town meeting on the 9th inst, we
understand. Other towns have taken this course.
Thus much was in type ere the secretary's min
utes came 10 hand, but as the substance is here
embraced, we omit the minutes, adding tina, I'M
der one engineer the survey will cost 5000 to
S600-under two engineers, about $1,000.
O. Mr.. Garvin, the Engineer injured on the
Central Road short time ago, is recovering rap.
idly.
We learn that the bill for railroad from Troy
through Cambridge, Salem and Granville, to ln-
tersect the Rutland and Burlington road, at Rut-
land, has passed the New York Legislature by a
handsome majority. by the carrying out Of this
project it seems to us that all rival interests
aroused in this matter may be quoted; as in
case of the building OF the Troy and Rutland
road, of course the friends Of the Whitehall road
will only have to build junction road to inter
sect at Castleton.--Rutiand Herald.

AProINTMENTs.-The Washington cores
pondent of the Baltimore PATROL writes (I7lh) as
follows:
"There may be local appointments made soon
after the adjournment of the Senate, but it is au-
thortatively given out that, unless in cases of
special emergency, no appointment to foreign
missions will be made till the close of the fiscal
year, the end of June next. The finances of the
Government suggest this policy, and it is also
prompted, in great part, by considerations of
dellcacy toward the incumbents, who will thus
be given an opportunity TO resign, without sub
jeclIng themselves to the disadvantage of being
removed, as most of them certainly will be, soon
after that time. There will not be removals
where tbs commissions have only short time to
run, unless in certain special cases, where the
public interest and political jusIIce require that
the person in office would be summarily disrnis-
sed. Where commissions expire, the appoint.
ment will be regarded as a new one, and the
person who will be selected to fill the Office, will
be chosen from all the applicants the incumbent
not being regarded Tor that reason as having any
claims or advantages over others"

A SANDER Refuted.

The SANDER upon President Taylor alluded
to below, was started by J. R. Gddngs. twas
at once denied by the National Inteligencer
doubtless on the Presidents authority, and is
fully explained now by Senator Sowqd. The
sentiment expressed by President Taylor was
admirable, and the views of the new Cabinet
were any thing but Slavocratic. They selected
n strong and well known anti-slavery man for
their adviser and friend, and the project which
they did press was the Northern project of Mr.
Webster against the Southern project of Mr.
Walker So much for the first assault upon the

WASHINGTON, March 90, 1919.
To The Editors. - Gentlemen: 1t has been sta
ted in some quarters that, Notwithstanding the
Allison letter, and the pretended pledges of Gen.
Taylor to leave all questions of legislation en-
tirely TO Congress, he tcns found personally Ug
ing members Of Congress TO pass Mr. Walkers
amendment through, attached as it was TO the
Appropriation bill. The first movement Of the

do not pretend to know the grounds or the
authority on which this statement is made, but |
think it due to Gen. Taylor to give to the public
the facts which are within my knowledge rcla
ting TO the subject.
In the morning of the Sd of March, (the last
day of the late session of Congress- Gen. Tay.
Tor, Mr.. Clayton, the present Secretary of State,
and Mr. Ewing, now Secretary of the Interior,
severally called my attention to the necessity Of
having some form of civil government for Cali
fornia established before Congress should adj
journ. Neither of those gentlemen indicated
any plan whatever, or expressed any opinion on
the question Of the extension of Slavery within
The Territory. What Gen. Taylor did say on
the subject was, that he desired 10 substitute The

with Mr.. Ewing, and there procured copy of
Mr. Walkers amendment, which had not be-

tempaed as an amendment Of Mr.. Walkers a.
mendment, or as a substitute for it. Afterward
l found Mr.. Webster's proposed amendment, and
i discovered that it contained all the provisions

took Mr.. Webstcr's amendment, and, having
shown it to Mr.. Ewing, who lett the whole sub
iect 10 my own judgment, visited many mem
bers of the House Of Representatives, and urged
the adoption of it. MIR. Vnton, Chairman OF the
Committee of Ways and Means, soon Informed
me that the Committee would report the amend
ment with some slight notifications, to which |
did not object. spent the residue Of the day
in urging the adoption of the amendment of the
Committee of Ways and Means upon members
of the House. When it had been adopted there,
l returned TO the Senate chamber and exerted
myself to procure the assent Of the Senate to
the amendment, and | insisted that no different
provision ought to pass. | continued my efforts
until the Senate decided TO disagree to the a.
mendment OF the Committee Of Ways and Means
of the House. 1t is well known that the whole
design Of Government for California failed by
reason OF that disagreement.
