THE FOREIGN MISSIONS NOT YET DISPOSED Of
LARGE NUMBER OF POST OFFICE APPOINTMENTS
FOR NEW YORK, ETC.
SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE NEW YORK HERALD
WASHINGTON, May 4--sP.M
In consequence of the absence Of the Secretary of War
Col Davis who is confined to his room no definite action
had to day by the cabinet upon the foreign appoint
ments Tho subject was however freely discussed With
tho exception Of three important missions
you about last week. nothing has yet been determined
upon definitely by the President So far as the other
foreign appointments concerned all the statements
OF tho chances of different individuals for missions
chargehps and consuates guesses or feelers
thrown out by the interested parties Certainly no init.
nations have been given by the cabinet to warrant the
rumors As general rule, it will be found when the
appointments are made that attention has been
paid to the States and OF those apponted
than to the consideration to whether the party was
the most urgent in pressing his claims or had the
number Of papers and signatures to endorse him. This
principle has already marked the appointments and
will continue to do Many Of the important appoint
ments far have been of persons who not even ap
plicants for Office.
The Courier and Enquirer urges as a reason why Mr.
Aspnwallfshould be retained Consul at London the
fact that he has held the Office for thirteen years. II
probable that such would be considered here as
the strongest against him. showing the necessity of send
ing some new man there who, by living in the United
States has kept up with Amercaneeling and sentiment
The agony as to the New York Post Offices is nearly
over all but of the Presidential Offices having been
flled TODAY follows
