WASHINGTON FEws AID GOSSIP.
Tha Fuli Nission Ia Central Amerioa w

have determined not 70 fll this mission, Oh
the ground that in the existing condition
Of Central America, 1t is not only useless,
but a serious embarrassment TO the proper
sare of our interests In that quarter. It
creation was Mr.. Everett's hobby, in belief
that the union Of the Centr al Auerican States
was about to be permanently consolidated
At present. however, that contamination Is
much farther of than ever before. Nicaragua
has Signor M.rooletta here; Honduras has
Gsneral Bareda, and Costa RIGA has Signor
Moline. all of whom are accredited to the
limited States as full ministers. The last
named Is also the accredited representative OF
the two remaining Central American States
San Salvador and Guatemala. That these
now independent Central American republics
have separate and diverse. if not antagonistic
interests, in connection with their relations
with the government of the United States, is
evident in the fact that they keep different
gentlemen to diplomatic among us. Under
these circumstances, it is very natural that
the American Government is thought to favor
the policy of sending separate Charges to their
respective countries rather than full minis
ter to travel around among them periodically,
like pedlar Of tin ware. We may not inap-
propriateiy call public attention to the Unions
prompt official contradiction Of the New York
Herald's late Washington foorback, saying
hat the Hon. Scion Borland had given offence
20 the Government by his management Of our
affairs In that quarter, and that desiring to
return to Central America, the authorities
here were not disposed to accede to his wishes
The fact that the whole cloth of which al
parts of this story was manufact ured was sc
soon exposed, adds still another proof that nc
reliability attaches to the Herata's W ashing-
ton news. " .5
An Important New York Political Move
ment.-Tammany Hall, of old times, seems
suddenly to have swarmed upon as in Wash.
ington. to judge from the appearance of the
halls of our leading hotels, wherein We find
Elijah F. Purdy, the present Grand Sachem;
Daniel s. Delavan, a former Grand Sachem;
Alderman Josiah II. Brown, of the LIST Ward;
George c. Giazier, inspector of streets ana
lamps; Richard B. Connolly, County Clerk;
William h. Cornell, sx-Alderman of the 18th
Ward; Thomas Dunlap, ex of the "Pewter
Mug" but at present Commissioner of Emi-
grafton; John H. Chambers, Henry Vande-
water, and many others we'll known to all who
know aught of the intricacies of New York cit,
local politics. They are all Democrats, OF
course, and are from both sides Of the divided
house i. e., Ha-ds and Softs. They come
to proffer to the Hon. William NJ. Tweed
of the House of Representatives, the Demo.
cratic nomination for Mayor of the Empire
city, We learn, having made up their minds
that they can elect him, and him only. Sc
they 60. Really, their presence reminds us
Of old times, when their heads were 50 often
together in the now famous local hole' of old
rammany, wherein 1.-The party's" plans fol
city campaigns have been debated and settled
for the last thirty years. We are very sure
hat they, at least, feel perfectly certain tina,
| if he will accept the proposed nomination, Mr.
Tweed will be the next Mayor of New York
city.
We have further to say that perhaps the
most important of their many missions here
has reference to filling the vacant district at
torneyship. They are said to talk loudly il
favor or Mr.. Busted, q young lawyer who ha.
| recently occupied much space in the New
York newspapers, in connection with fashy
cases. We are satisfied, however, that Will.
they seem to be looking that way, they ar,
| rowing in the direction Of Mr.. John Mckeon
| with might and main.
Dispersion Of the Diplomatic Corps.-W,
learn that Washington is soon to be quite bar,
Of foreign diplomatists M. Tirado the Peru
| Wan Minister, is already in New York, ant
Baron Gerolt, the Prussian Minister, is on hi
way to Berlin to pay flying visit to his home
Baron Grabben, his Secretary of Legation, i
acting in his stead. Count Sartiges, the Frencl
Minister, having broken up housekeeping il
Washington for the season, is on the heights O
Georgetown, where he is said to be making
preparations to spend some months in New
York and Newport. The Marquis of Talia
karne, the Sandman Envoy, we hear, is ais
about to leave Washington for sojourn at tn
North. General Almonte, the Mexican Min
ister, as we intimated few days since, havin,
received a congo from his Government, is sal,
to propose shortly to sail for Europe on tou
for relaxation; and it is thought that NJ Triad
goes there also before his return to Wash
ington.
Navy Agents and Naval storekeepers =
The convocation of these classes Of pubic en-
ployees 10 Washington at this time, we hav'
ascertained, relates wholly to their own inter
csts as the latter are to be affected by the actor
Of Congress upon Mr.. Bocock naval bill. Be
sides those whose names were mentioned il
yesterdays Star, there are others Of them nov
| among Us, from Baltimore and elsewhere
We learn that they hope to induce Congress
TO accord to them what they regard as faire
l compensation than they receive under existing
laws. They rest, one and all of them, under
very heavy bonds-being charged with tn,
faithful disbursement Of public money in enor
nous sums. If-as they alleze-they are un
derpaid, it will be poor economy, indeed, no
to accord them more compensation; as one de
faication among them might easily cost tn
! National Treasury more than proper aggre
gate i:cersase Of pay to the whole of them
However, we 40 not pretend to have studiet
their case and there.Sare are by no means com
