HqyrCol. Max Einstein, who was lately
expelled from the military service Of the
country for drunkenness and incompetent.
cy, as the finding and sentence Of court
martial, has just been appointed by the
President as Consul 10 Nuremberg, in
Bavaria. Thus one after another Of the
most obnoxious men Of our country are
being rewarded by the present admins
tration. | was but last week that we an.
nounced that the notorious Helper had
been sent abroad on similar mission.
If q man is found unfit to serve his coun
try at home, by what rule of diplomatic
etiquette is he fitted 10 serve IL abroad ?
! he gets too drunk on the field of battle
is there not great danger that he will &c,
too drunk in the circles OF diplomacy?
The secret in the appointments Of Hell
per and Einstein is, that they represent
the extreme Abolition and Red Republi-
can wings Of the Black Republican party.
Eins.ein snarled tremendously at being
dismissed from the military service, and
which, together with the remova! of Fre'
mont, stirred up the Red Republican hor'
nets nest to such degree that the Pres
ident seems to have essayed to appease
their wrath by bestowing upon them one
or two more lucrative foreign appoipt-
ments, and hence Einsten was picked W
fit or unfit, drunk or not drunk.
