A Specimen Brick.

The President in his efforts to cor

Der of al pointments which the Senate

Among the nominations sent to the
Senate last week, and now pending
before the judiciary Committee, is that
of 3. G.. NOrthrup, to be United States

He succeeds District Attorney Stone,
who was the man who Investigated
the Hamburg and Ellerton massacres,
and secured the indictment of Ham
burg Butler, who claims a seat in the
Senate, and other prominent Demo-
Gratis for participation in them. The
inside history of Stones removal and
Nortbrup's appointment is stated to
be as follows: When President
Hayes was riding with Wade Hamp-
ton from Louisville to CHATTANOOGA,
he told the President that change
in the office of District Attorney
would be acceptable to the people and
materially advance the work of paci-
fication. Stone having become very
offensive on account of his obstreper-
GUS conduct in regard to the little af-
fairs that occurred at Ham burg and
Ellerton. President Hayes consented
to Stones removal, and told Hamp-
ton he would appoint any Republican
he would recommend. Hampton
recommended Northrup, and the
President sent telegram from Chat
