been and is held ia reserve, as trumpcard in an

tinguished itself in its foreign appointments, aud that
the appOintees have made the American name as nOtO

in continuation that five six weeks ago, at the
request of the democratic members from Ohio, it was
positively promised to David A. Starkweaher, formerly
