GEORGE EusTIs. Jn

/ The nomination Of this eloquent and talented
young gentleman for Congress, in the First Dis
| trict, has given much satisfaction to numerous
friends. In fact, the sentiment is universal, SO
tar as our sphere Of observation enables us to
judge, and it is not very contracted
In the expression Of this opinion there is no
disparagement Of Judge Gayarre, the only oppo-
nent of MIR. e. Had he been nominated he
would have received the cordial support Of every
honest member Of the party, and his friends
would have been just as prompt and enthusiasts
tic in the advocacy Of his claims as are those ot
his successful competitor.
Those who talk as though Judge Gayarre
could be induced, on their invitation, to run ss
an independent candidate against the regular
nominee Of his own party, fairly and honorably
| selected in regularly constituted convention,
perpetrats a oauseless and wsnton insult upon
o high toned and chiyslrous gentleman, who
would not act the part of renegade for all the
offices in christendom. Dishonest men and fools
may swallow an apostate's bait, but intelligent
and honest men, like Gayarre, pass it by with
all the scorn it merits.
| We believe the First District will elect Mr.
Eustis by very handsome majority, and are
equally clear in our convictions that he will
make better, ADLER and more useful Represent
ative, than that district has had for many
years True, he has not had as much expe-
risnce as some others, but youth, energy, talent,
| tact and education-all of which he possesses
will speedily enable him to overcome the obsta-
Giles which Congressional inexperience may in
terpose in his pathway. We predict for him a
| legislative career which will be alike honorable
| to himself and valuable to his constituents
| AS member Of the convention which framed
the constitution Of the State, he displayed abili-
ties Of the first order, and as one Of our munich
pal legislature-the first elected under the
charter Of consohdation-Mr. u. was q faithful,
| laborious and able Assistant Alderman Al
though in political minority he won the es-
TEEN Of all his colleagues for the industry,
ability and zeal, with which he discharged his
| municipal duties and as Associate of the As
sistant Attorney the past two years, he has been
prompt, methodical and accurate. He cannot
| boast OF ever having been an old party hack,
but in all the positions in which he has been
placed he has displayed those cardinal qualities
| that unerringly indicate the possession of capa-
city to fill creditably the highest Offices

WASHINGTON, Friday, Aug. 1.-THE state.

appointment as Commissioner to China, and
will soon return thither.
The War Department came very near being
destroyed by fire this afternoon, in consequence
of some loose papers carelessly left, becoming
ignited. The flames were suppressed, however,
without material damage, but intense alarm
was felt for awhile among the West End
officials.
The Union of this morning announces the
appointment by the President Of DR.. Parker as
Commissioner to China. The Doctor has
