A Little Unplensnntness.

A uuarrelis evidently brewing over the the ap'
po,ntment Of Gushing TO SPAN and his ndmiDa
tion for the Supreme Bench, that viii prove very
damaging to tht Adical portion OF the kepubll'
can party.
1t was supposed by s,me that this iit'd dliii-
Guilty had come to an end, by the graceful ydldin:
of the President to the demands oi the senate
which has now assumed the mastery. Bot th's
isnot SO. The Washington Chron'dc continues
ITS dcuunciation of MIR Gushing and says the
question must bo considered whether it would
hc wise to send him as Minister Plenipotenllary
and Envoy Extraordinary from this government
to Spain. Although once indorsed for lnal posi-
ton by the Senate the subsequent Developments
IN the case puts the matter In = u1lsrent Isht
than If bis record had been fully known in ad-
vance To permit him to leave the country under
these circumstances IN representative capaclt!
would be a species ot fraud on the fresldcnt,Se
ate and country, and with such cloud hanging
about him, his otherwise possible usefulness
would he destroyed, and the Spanish Government
could not regard his presence as compliment y. 1t
ought not to be forgotten in this conNictioh that
the President of Spain would have right 10 re-
fuse him, which would ne humiatlon TO 'ls. IL
is surprising that Mr.. Gushing has not promptly
sent in his oeclinaton Of the position.
To this the Washington Republican replies in
friends with perpretatng forgery, In the letter
which WAS read in the Senate, that Cushing

entirely dissmar.
Whether this be so or not the Senate has placed
its hand Gu Grant aud by this sudden movement
gained victory over the Executive which erhib-
its the weakness of the President to the country
and cannot fail to engender very unpleasant re-
nections in the future. Had the President not
shown the white-feather so quick and given the
friends Of Cushing an opportunity to place him
fairly where lie belongs, the nomination could
have been Withdrawn with that dignity which be-
came his office. The long delay IN withdrawing
The name Of " lliams and the Laste with which
he acted upon Cushing's is evidence of a nervous
ness that was not expected even in the Senate. A
days pause in the matter would have been more
decent, especially as the President had Cushing's
letter requesting a withdrawal OF the nomination
la his hands
With reference to Mr.. Cushings appointment
the members OF the Democratic party have so far
manifested politically no decided interest they
were perfectly willing that the responsibility
might rest with the party to which it belonged !;
but It is decidedly unfair to treat a man in the
shabby manner in which Gushing has been treated
by the members of the political organization with
which he co-operated. 1t would seem I'd us no
more than fair for the President TO require the
Senate to furnish him with a list OF the names OF
the men that are loyal, from which to select
Chief Justice.

The Daily Graphic has been examining The
doings of ihs swindling firms which infest New
York 1t is singular what an amount OF credu-
hty these rogues find TO live upon. 1t Is capi-
tai that Is apparently nexhaustible. What kind
of mind the rural western man has who expects
to get watch worth twenty dollars for an cxpen
diture OF two dollars it is difficult TO discern. The
fish bite, however, at the nakedest bait and tic
result is a perpetual catch. Either ihe same per
sons write again after having been once swindled,
or the crop of imbeciles is amazing. 10 single
month ten thousand letters have passed through
the New York postoffice, containing on an aver
age one dollar each. The sawdust swindle the
1ve-dollar sewing machine fraud, the lottery
schemes, the counterfeit money dodge, and q
hundred others, received their pro portion. The
police have "black list" of seven hundred names
and aliases of swindling firms, and nearly every
day adds to it, Some Of these rascals are hard
to hold as so many eels, and have been traced for
months without avail.

the very nick OF time, when il proved worse

IN which Gen Butler, another old friend OF Jef.
