NOMINATIOXs TO OFFICE.
HsW a COUSIN of the President
Got His appointment.
From the Baltimore Gazette

From the Baltimore Gazette.
WASHINGTON, April l6. The more
haste the less speed is an old proverb, the
truth of which the new Administration
is now realizing. When the removals
and appointments commenced in earnest,
as they did on Bfondsy last, it appears
that cases we're disposed of by the "lot, -
without the trouble Of asserting out the
/" dead beats y and hard casee. The inn
rTess ion has evidently been that q
nomination was all that was necessary
continuation being regarded as mere
matter Of form. But the mutterings
from the Senate Chamber about the
general tGne and character OF the nomi-
nations sent there have reached the
Presidents ears AND already have several
nominations been recalled and cancelled
Many others will have to be, or they will
have to be, or they will be rejected by
toe Senate. Comp lrativeiy few of those
whose names have been sent in for re-
sponsible public positions heVe the slight
est qualifications Tor the cltles assigned
them.
A good story is told here Ct the man
ner in which constituent Of the Hon.
VIM. Llugdridge was cheated out of a
com f)rtable berth by an aged relative OF
his E Excellency, President Grant. This
old cousin of the Presidents and citi-
zen of IVA bad learned that all the FAM
lily relatives were 10 be prOVi ded for, and
he made straight tracks for this city. On
his arrival here he called on each mem
Der of the Iowa delegation for recon-
HendstiOn for first one Office and then
another ia his State, but was always
nut Gtf with lps information that
ihe particular Office desired had been
promised to another. The O ! man then
neg ged for o general letter Tor whatever
he could get his cousin, The President, to
Q We hin. HIS request in this particular
6eing complied with, he bolted for the
White House. On his way there he fell
in with Mr. LoWkTidge, who was also
an his wRy to visit the President by sp-
pointment. During the walk LOugh-
Tidge stated that the President bad pFou-
isaf TO appoint a friend of his la the place
+ ff,tz Henry Warren, and that he was
then on his way &c attend to the
matter. Rssching the white House
both gentlemen sent In their cards, sHa
soon the back woods relative was sent
for. leaving the Hon. VIM. LoughIidge
ia waiting ia tSe snterOom, and not a
little surprised at this prompt recogni-
ton Of o family relative; but judge OF
his surprise when the old man came,
and taking LoughFidge TO aue side, said
in a confidential tone, II regret to say
nv cousin, the President, insisted on my
taking Mr.. Wsrren's place, and had
reluctantly to consent. hope your
iriend will be sble to find some other

that the old man had svsiled hip4seii OF
the fact he had Northumberland before

modate them to tracks of various gusges

Even New York has been disgusted
and shocked. The veloeiDede has ae-
compIished what the "Black Crook y

has called forth 8 denuuciatiOn OF i'm
modest exhibitions. At the Empire
Rink Veloclpedrome, on Monday even

thres men-dispOrted themselves on
tisry bicycles, and by turns delighted
and disgnsted rather numerous auul-
euee. Whatever msy be sid OF tne We

the fairer sex, unless indeed to that por-
tioD of il which msy be classified under
the head Of " Bowery gals y The French
women alluded to were beautifully at
tired in tight fitting garments" and per
formed some astonishing velocipedes-
trian feats. A New York paper is as
sured that the " Black Crook " was but
a phantom as compared to the georgeau9
b1reness of the velOcipeGestrianesse
and beside it the " White Fawn" beau
lies pale into utte- insignificaDce. The
Tnodesty of New y oTk was shocked, and
the hope is expressed that the exhibition
will not be repeated.
