CABINET RUMORS.
Wendell Phillips Mentioned as MIR. hIotley's
Successor.

Wendell Phillips Mentioned MIR. Motley's
The New York Tribune'S Washington CORES
pondent says:-
During a recent friendly interview between
prominent Senator and the President, the con-
versation turned in a general way upon the
contemplated changes in the foreign missions
and in the Cabinet, and the merits of several
gentlemen were freely discussed. Wendell
Phillips name was mentioned in connection
with the mission to England, the mission to
Berlin, and the Secretaryship of State.
The names of George P. Marsh, Senator Conk-
ling, Caleb Gushing, and General Butler were
also spoken of in a friendly spirit. 1t was sug-
gested, in view of the opposition of Senators
Sumner and Wilson, and other members of the
New England delegation in Congress, to the
removal of Mr.. Motley, that no objection could
be urged against Mr.. Phillips from that quarter;
that he was representative American, notlikely
to be influenced by English peculiarities; that he
is well known in England and appreciated for
his acknowledged ability everywhere, and
would at once take leading rank among the
diplomatists of the world. The merits of other
gentlemen were also discussed with lberality
and favor The President, however, gave no
indication of future appointments. Another
Cabinet rumor relating to the possible retire
ment of either Secretary Robson or Secretary
Cox or both, is also quietly circulated.
1t is stated that the President has under con-
sideTation, in the event of the rejection by the
Senate of the nomination of Mr.. Oliver to the
District Supreme Court Ga life position) the
propriety of appointing Mr.. John NJ. Langston,
a colored lawyer of note who is at present the
Law Professor at the Howard University.

Richards health which had not been firm
for years. failed, since which time she
was for the most part, confined to her
bed. During the period of her loag sick
ness, physicians had kindly cndeavored to
relieve her. but disease had too firm
hold upon her system. She gradually
declined until about four weeks since
when the approach of death was more
apparent. There was an entire paraly-
sis of the lower part of her body. The
coming of death was at FIRST attended with
much pain, and fears were entertained
that the final struggle would soon be over,
But death come peacefully, and took
away the spirit with the tranquility ola
sweet sleep. Her sons, Sanford j. Foote,
Ozias W. Foote, and her former hus-
bands son. Silas X. Foote also her sister
Mrs. Cas-, were with her much of the
time just previous to her decease, and
tenderly mnistercd to all her wants.
She exhibited resignation in her extreme
suffering, and was ready to depart and be
with Christ. Mrs. Foot united with the
Baptist church in Cornwall, soon after her
with Mr.. Foot, and in connec-
ton with with him, at the formation Of
the Free church, united with that body. Her
funeral was attended on Monday, Aug.
Is, at her late residence, where her many
relatives, and the sympathizing citizens Of
Cornwall paid their last respect ofthe re-
mains, and she was buried in the cemetery
at West Cornwall; and her last resting
place is by the side of her former hus.

Very little new or interesting in these

slowly. The country on the bank of the
river where the road runs being broken
and covered with a dense growth, of
mainly young timber, spruce, hcmlock
md yellow birch. The cost of the road
so far. will compare favorably with other
roads in the State Very little rock has
been met with, and that of n slaty char
acter, sound enough to work easily, the
earth mainly sand or gravel, with some
clay hills, not like the clay about Mid
dlebury, being much easier worked
There are some improvements going on
in this place especially OH the side walks,
on Main street, which are being repaired
with brick. which is used here for that
purpose, but why do not know as |
should think that the slate rock which can
be had within short distance. would be
much cheaper and better.
Tho buildings and fences Oh State St.,
and on some Of the other streets, need a
large amount of repairs to make them
look any way decent for the Capitol of
the State.
The stores on State and Main streets,
most of them need repairing in order to
make them pleasant and attractive. They
look too much like the Seymour Block, in
Middlebury. A new coat Of paint and
tearing away of the unsightly awnings
would help some.
On Main street, above the Union
House, are some fine restaurants, also
several fine churches. Tho Methodsts
are building large church on this street
and building for seminary of some kind
on the camp ground, | think the first Of
wood and the other of brick. To give
you some idea Of the weather, | am told
that the men at work on the Methods,
Seminary have lost but ! of day by
reason of rain since the work commenced
about the LIST of May, | think until with
in the last ten days or so.
The crop of corn is very good ant
early, SO also are the oats ON the inter

other times it has dull appearance lik'
nearly all country towns. A large amour
of fine hogs, cattle and sheep are shipped
