WASHINGTON Wednesday, March 30, 1853
Wonderful are the ways of Presidents,
and painful the disappointment of scbel as well as Of
others Up 20 Saturday last, Schell and his cohorl
fought msnfully On that day the President told them
honestly that 1t for them to struggle longer,
as all the New,York appointments had been made.
This announcement transferred the battle altogether
TO Pennsy vania av, and its bar.Tooms much to the
relief of the Executive and his constitutional advisers
The executive determination then that Redfeld
Aould be the Collector. The President was DESTROYS
oappointng schel and Dobbin and Guthrie favored
hp views. But Marcy, when the time came for him
10 take his position, Is understood TO have salts
fed them, that If he remained in the Cabinet
he the proper Judge Of appointments from his own
State The justice and common sense OF this view OF
;he question was admitted in the end by all Of them
Had their consultations ended otherwise, Dobbln and
Guthrie would have been, practically, Marcys eXecu-
tors before his death There was too much force Of
character In the old man TO permit him to stand this 20
he fought his way manfully through the difficulties by
which no wac besct The decision to appoint Redheld
was also arrived at the readily he had been in
Washington on his return from Havana and had been
invited to the White House the evening previous
riday) to give the President and Cabinet advice and
Information about the New York appointments lie
was not an applicant for place, aud Marcy proposed
him without his knowledge means OF solving the
difficulty much as Pierce proposed at the Bait
more Convention
But on Monday morning a change came over the
spirit of the dream. Mr. Brdseli, Diokinsons sonin'
law had refused to accept the post of Navy Agent
this and Schels rejection would leave that venerable
Statesman without any pledge of the Executive snee'
sion and something must be done Besides 1t was
doubtful whether Rcdhed would take so hard place
rs the Custom uouscor rather certain that he would
not Accordingly Cabinet meeting was held and the
great compromise, combination arrangement proposed
with Dickinson at its head. Marcy, seeing thai Il
couldn't be helped accepted gracefully, and al IL A.
NJ all was settled.
The President has to-day requested the Sen
nate to prolong its session for ten days longer.
The Diplomatic Corps give picnic at Mt
Vernon ON Saturday next.
No orders have been yet signed at the Con-
tract oElce of the Post Office Departments delay
which is unusual and embarrassing.
There came near being fracas at the Ma
hOna dinner table to-day. Judge Phelps, OF Vermont
used plain language about Commodore Moore oil
Texas which some oficous teltale reported TO thai
fanetionsfy. who by. The valiant Comma
Gore Immediately confronted the Senator, and would
have proceeded to exremtes but for the presence OF
ladies
