pointment Of Ex-Governor Boutwell, 10 the
mcst important position in the Cabinet ere.
ates no 8aca enthusiasm of approval IN Mass
achusetta as did the unexpected selection
of Judge Bear. " IL not that Mr.. Bout veil
Is unpopular, for the opposite Is true aud If
either Nj. Sumner CT Wilson had been
called into tho Presidents counsefs he would
probably have been sent to tie Senate with
out ser.ous oppcAitlon. III. Boutwell, Is a
sound, earnest md honest mAn, an ardent
and generally = s.gacio1s politician, aud of
great experience in public Affair.". Had. he,
been called where Gsaut 6rst wanted him, to
the Department Of the Interior, and accepted
that position. nc should I'll have duug up
our caps for him with will. But the chilli
ness which grecls hI. accession TO the Treas
ury Is due to the lact-frst, that Mr. Bont-
well has never dLplsyed any marked dnau-
cial ability to Indicate that strong pull to-
wards cheap government and specie pay
mtnts which We had hoped for from the new
stmirJ.trauon and, second, that he has
such intimata aud close connections
and friendships with Congressman aud
psrty men that there Is small
hope Of obtaining from him that
sternucss and imPartiallty Of reform wher-
ever rotten spot may exist thst We should
have counted on FROM Ar. Stewart, OF msn
like bin free from entanglmg alliances and
possessed Of solid business experience.
AZ tar Is our State vanity Is concerned, We
are grztlfled BY the retention OF Judge Hoar
and 60 long ~ President Grant has shown
Euch general dfarexsfd of geographical quail
aestions nc give no credit TO the stories Of
his temporary tenure Of the Attorney 4eaer-
alshtp. New York had two Republican
members Of PRECEDENT Johuson's Cshino: for
tho last ten mon hs, and moody ever heard
= complaint and this State hss not had a
Minister before for eight years
or more. Mr.. uor Is sure TO
make his mark where he IL; and Khcu
the Present err Ct chaos ID over, It Is safe to
predict that both the President and the Ia.
tton will have discover what he Is msde
Of too clearly to dtsirt to shelvc him By IN
appointment to foreign mission or The Su-
prime Bench.
The vacancy In Mr. Boutweil's district
opena the prospect Of Congressional elec-
tlGn before VI Atan unusual aud uuexpected
season. The region ol the State to which be
belong 5 Ia not troubled with prominent pol.
