the scene of former heroic poits-for the purpose
of terrifying the natives and letting them under
stand that another explosion may take p'ace. Mar
tipez and hs mongrel followers have no special ad-
uiraiion for taltpeter and may therefore be expect
ed 10 come down from their present l0fty emlDence.
Yrissarri, who patrioticaily Degotated something
called treaty with Gen. Cass, s TO be here and help
70 make out case, upon which or0adsldes may De

The runor Of Judge Roosrvelt's selection for the
mission 10 England came from the precincts Of the
crcumlocutiu1 sfice which Is not the best evidence
of ts authenticity. No confirmation could be traced
YESTERDAY and the Cabinet we're wholly Ignorant OF
any sucn intention. Several months ago the sug
gestion was mace through this correspondence, and
upon probability which then had some basis. SIR
Gore Ouseley ID m4rried sister Of Judge Roosevelts
wife. and when Mr.. CHAMPION vas about 70 get his
congE beIe, Mr. Buchanan who was then Minister
at London, urged that Sir Gore should be sent IN
his place. He had known bin when Secretary g
Legation here before the flood, and bad aso kno"
the Van Ness family with which he had then ldenti
fed his fortunes and fate. The intimacy was pre-
served, and this is supposed to be the explanation
of the diplomatic enigma which this gentleman has
presented for the gossps of Washington during the
whole session of Congress The Ouseleys have had
the rup Of the White House, and it is not unlikely
the hint of Judge Roosevelt came from that quarter.
But he has not yet been appointed, and. therefore,
need not pack his carpet-bag, or buy his small
sword But if he should be one of the many who
are called, and the few who are chosen, Mr.. SOule
has psttern.suit for Minister, which Mr.. Bu-
chsnan admired very much at Ostend, and which,
am led to believe, he would now gladly sell at haii
price. 1t quite charmed the immaculate Isabella,
though failed to conquer her prejudces concern
ing the gem of the Antilles.
John VanBuren looms up in these hot parts with
a sort of colossal grandeur. One might suppose
the whole Buffalo tribe OF Anno DomIni 1915 was
bodily transferred to the possession OF power such
is his majestic men, assured air and commanding
control All the Departments open their inrnost re-
cesses TO bis welcome presence. Secretaries are
too clad TO see so national II man. Assistant Secre-
taries hail his coming with willing prostratlons
Clerks are honored i'll touching the hem Of his gar
ment, and papers voluntarily desert their musty
files seeking the inquisltiOn of his flashing Orbs
In fact, he is cock Of the walk. Nobody else dare
crow, except Dean Richmond in corner. The
immortal John is lord Of all he surveys, aud has
even gwen reluctant consent to be candidate at
Charleston if Mr.. Buchanan shall be ont OF the
way in order to accommodate our Southern brethren
And, what is more than all, he really dimes at the
White House, which is more than any Of your Black
Republicans can say.
The Treasury statement for the past week ap-
pears TO swell into magnificent proportions; but
when over $4,000, 600 of borrowed money, for the
last installment of Treasury Notes, are deducted 1t
will be found that the show S no better than the
average of the preceding six months from customs
and lands. Mr.. Cobb estimated in December last
he would have about S500OOO to his credit on the
lst Of July He has since then issued $50, ,OOO, 600
Treasury Notes and ressued SO, 1000, and will
find himself next week with an artificial balance 20
satisfy large outstanding claims. Nobody can BE-
deceived by placing figures on the credit side when
they only represent so much debt Wait till next
December. Then the story must be told without
coloring, when more money must be borrowed.
A special meeting Of the Cabinet is now in session
on the Post Office appointments of New-York.
The Recommendations for about thirty, filling two
bushels, were sent up this morning. INDEX.
