Lordes Of Office bcegais vino come here on and

the 9TH Of March, take and subscribe the oath OF
Office teiore the Chief Justice and those Com
mittees at the Presidents House, without any
pacesnt or parade, and forthwith issue his lnlu-
aural to the American people. The reasons
given for this are, that the collection Of these
oiIice-beggars quadrennially at Washington is
becoming puiiance that must be abated, or at
some future period factions may avail Themselves
of such congregations to make prOn~RcidmeatOs,
la Mexican3. There may be something in this.
Already the ofhce-bcggdrs are beginning to ind
fault with the project as displaying a want OF re-
lance on tie people. They seem to think they
are the people Bat | make no DOUBT that The
people would approve the course, ii Gen. Pierce
should dare to adopt il. Cen Washington and
the elder Adams used 20 deliver their messages
to Congress in person. Mr.. Jefferson changed
that practice and sent written messages by his
private Secretary, and his course was approved
and has been followed ever since.
If Gen. Pierce was TO let it be known that 10
regarded the coming 10 Washington to oar,oig
and inpOrtune Cabinet officers for appointments
as All insuperable objection 20 the claims Of any
applicant, it would do good. We remember
what ludicrous CONSERVATION and what a pre-
cipitate flight took place at an announcement
made by Mr. Meredith, soon alter his appoint
ment, that he would appoint no man to Office
who was in Washington seeking it. The hungry
applicants who had been impOrtUning him. VAN

may be easily adopted. Let there be published
in the Official journal at Washington, Il register
of all the applications for office, with digest OF
their recommendations, at least thirty days be-
fore the appointments are made The expense
to lie borne by the applicants This would ex-
pose intrigue, and give to every one fair chnce.
The poor but mcrt0riOus applicant who cOul
not get to Washington would thus stand on an
equal footing with his better provided ami more

plan would greatly improve the quality OF ou'
