Correspondence OF tue CINCINNATI Enquirer.
WASHINGTON, Nov. s, lS67.-Certain
parties, disappointed in not securing the
Presidents aid 20 advance their selfish pur-
poses, are making strenuous efforts TO prove
that johnson broke faith with the New
York Democracy after making oyertures TO
them. 1t is charged that some weeks since,
Cassidy, of New York, addressed letter to
a gentleman Of Washington, stating that
the New York Democratic Convention pro-
posed to pass aresolution repudiating John
son and his administration, and that this
reached the President.
IL il further said that the President inn
mediately dispatched distinguished Mis-
sOurian and exsmember Of Congress from
Tennessee, to confer with Seymour, Hof-
man and others, with view to arrest the
passage Of the resolution, and arrange other
important matters. The resolution was
stricken out, and in return il was under
stood Seward was 10 retire from the Cabi-
net, and New York be represented therein
by John ]. Ciscoe as Secretary ofthe Treas
ury.
This programme was not carried ont,
and each party charges the other with
broken faith. Johnson's friends assert that
the New York leaders agreed 10 have the
Administration indorsed, which, not being
done, relieved him from any obligation TO
make change in the Cabinet Several
spicy letters have passed between the rep
resentaiives of these high contracting par
ties in their efforts 10 settle the question OF
bad faith But no matter on whom this
rests, no Cabinet changes have been
made, and none are anticipated.
Gen. Frank Blair, to whom was rendered
Cabinet appointment, has declined it
His acceptance was contingent on the re,
organization of the whole Cabinet-which
is indefinitely postponed.

BRILLIANT CAREER AND SAD END
OF A CONFEDERATE BOY.
From the Louisville CouriC


We find in the last number of the VIM
chester, Va, Times a brief biographical
sketch of Capt. George Burwell, of Clarke
county, in this State, who recently perished
in the Imperial army of Maximilian.
This gallant Nirginian was only fourteen
years of age when the late war of inde-
pendendence broke ont, but despite the
protests of his friends, enlisted in the
Southern army, and bore himself through
all its contests with distinguished gallantry
and credit After Lees surrender he de-
termined TO leave the country, and with
this purpose he went to Mexico and tend
cred HE sword to the Emperor Maximilian
In the Imperial service he displayed the
same ardent valor which had marked his
Confederate career, and he rose to the
grade of Captain. In one of the almost
numberless affairs which were fought in
Maximilian's last campaign, young Bur
well was mortally wounded, and breathed
his last on the field of action.
There are but few heroes TO whom are so
applicable the words of Byron

THE Providence Journal says the wages
of the operatives were to be reduced last
month in several of the largest cotton fac
tories in Rhode Island, and that if the
times do not improve, an entire or partial
suspension of work must soon occur, by
the concerted action of the manufacturers.
The large wooden mill of Edward Harris,
known az the Harris Woolen Company, in
Woonsocket, will commence to run on
three quarters time next Monday, and
some portions of the machinery viii be
stopped until there is a more encouraging
prospect fer its productions. The old mills
continue their usual time at present. The
Lippitt Woolen Company have run but
two-thirds of their looms for several
months, but at present are running fifteen
or eighteen sets of machinery.

A MISSISSIPPI physicisn professes to
have invented new kind of ink. The ap-

described by the New Orleans P'caglsne:
"The portion of the letter written with

written with a'golden fluid. Let the reader
imagine that a letter with the ordinary
black ink be suddenly dashed with gold
dust, which adheres only to the letters, and
he will have some idea of the singulariy
brilliant effect of this chemical writing
fluid"

this ink while compromising wash for the

manent, and that the ink viii become a
favorite with printers and signpainters-
