Congressional Dictation.

1t seems that the Presidents indspo-
sition to Ego it blind" in making all his
appointments upon the recommendation
of members of Congress, has raised per-
feet hornets nest about his ears, in the
shape of caustic letter from the Hon.
James Maurice, NJ. c. elect, from the first
district Of New York, which is going
around, just now, among the papers of that
region. The complaint is, that the Admin
istration appointed others than those re-
commended by him Mr.. NJ. to places in
his district. Unfortunately for the inter-
est Of the public service, as we'll as for
that of political morals, the President has
served too few of his fellow members at.
ter the fashion in which, according to Mr..
Maurice, he has been treated. Of late
years, members of Congress have as
sumed (virtually) to dictate all appoint
ments to be made to places in their re-
spective districts, or from their districts:
and Administrations, of both parties, have
been weak enough to admit their right to
do so. All in Washington who have
noted how such things have been man
aged, will bear US out in declaring that in
eight such cases out of every ten the
member chooses among the contestants
for his favorable recommendation with an
eye chiefly directed to the important duty
of Strengthening himself, personally, or
the particular clique of his party at
home, with which he is identified. The
great blunder of the present Administra-
ton has been its failure to act in the mat
ter of its appointments more independent
than it has done, though it really has
been more independent, in this respect,
than was its predecessor. We hold that
IT should have been entirely above such
influences, in view of the fact that their
evil effects were glaringly exposed during
the term of President Fillmore. Mr.. Maui
rice will find few sympathizers, indeed; in
asmuch as the President s refusal to bow to
his dictation as to who from his district
should have office and who should not, is
simply carrying out unmistakable public
opinion. 1t is to be hoped that, on his
return, the President will profit by the
exposure of the clique ends of Congress
sional recommendations for office involved
In the growing letter of Mr.. NJ; and
thus be induced hereafter to give to men,
bers OF Congress the practical dispersal
ton of little or none of the patronage
remaining in his lands. We repeat
public opinion will sustain him in confn-
ing the members to their own sphere in
public affairs. Oh that there were some
two hundred Messieurs Maurice, instead
Of paltry dozen or two.

MAJOR WooD, of North Carolina, who
refused first class clerkship in the Land
Office not long since, and was subse-
quently appointed in the Sixth Auditors
Office, flor which he is said to have passed
the necessary examination, has, we
learn, been removed. What's the mat

The FISHING GROUNDS SQUADRON
have reason to believe that the Princeton
may not prove in condition to join the
Fishing Grounds Squadron. Her recent
trip from Norfolk to Portsmouth, N. II
turned out to be dead failure owing to
defects in her boilers. A survey is to be
ordered upon her Immediately, and from
the report of those making the survey, it
will be determined, we apprehend, wheth-
er or not to send her to the coasts of the
British colonies. ..
The Vermont (74) lays in New York
harbcr, ready for sea. She was to have
formed one of the Japan expedition squad
ron, but has not been sent in that direc-
ton, because it has so far been found i'm
possible to get crew for her. Yet it
strikes us that a crew for five months
cruize on such an expedition can be obtained
in two days in northern seaports, though
for the coast survey service the recruiting
officers have not been able to procure
them; the term of service being short.
The Department attribute the failure to
get seamen to their great scarcity. We
think it arises for the most part from the

A Curious Historical Fact.

During the troubles Of the reign o
Charles ], a country girl came to Lon
don in search of place as servant
maid; but not succeeding, she hired her
sell to carry out beer from a warehouse,
and was one Of those callcl women.
The brewer observing goo! looking
girl in this low occupation, took her in
tc his family as a servant, anil, after a
short time married her.-Hc de while
she was yet young woman, aud left
her the bulk Of his fortune. The busi.
ness Of the brewer dropped, ana Mr.
Hide was recommended TO the young
woman as a skill(ul lawyer to arrange
her husbands afTairs.-Hidc, who was
af,erwarl Earl Of Clarendon, finding the
widows fortune considerable, married
her. BY this marriage there was no 9TH
er issue than daughter, who was after
wards the wife Of james II, ami mo,he,
Of Queen May and Ann.
