And now about Mr.. Robson Why assRil

he sees tn his nominee the timber Of which good

not waitthe result OF the trial Of that timber and

we refer may be all well enough If it can be rec
oncied % the dignity and trIthiulness lhat are

1t will be noticed that the P0sfs censnre
receives its force, not from any feeling or
knowledge on its part that Mr.. Robson has
not been fairly and justly dealt with by its
Republican contemporary, or that Mr.. Grant
has not been properly criticised for making
the appointment. It Is not in position to
do more than complain that anything at oil
has been said till the stranger can form the
public acquaintance and show what of merit
there is in lin. In taking up the cudgel
for Mr.. Robson it is admitted that there is
no other known warrant for it than the fact
that the President has selected him and that
the President Is not fool. When a cabinet
officer can receive from the uartizan friends
OF the Executive selecting him, no more
certain or emphatic commentator than that
the President has appointed him, and that
the President is not fool, we think It IS
safe for those who DO not pretend to be the
Presidents organ, though Of his party, TO
Rsssil the appointment as one unfit to be
made. Ifthe country is obliged to wait for
a Minister to serve out his term TO ascertain
what his fitness for his position is and can
not Justly speak Of his fitness till then, the
public service is sadly degenerated indeed
