INSIST upon repeal OF all reconstruction
measures especially enacted for the bene-
Fl of the freedmen, and stin others i'm
putting to the, President a purpose. to
favor the construction of the Southern
Pacific railroad and the execution Of
other Southern Jobs at The expense Of the
United States Treasury, continue to fur
nish food for discussion. And upon the
whole il is pretty safe tOpredict that the
next session Of Congress VIII prove an
exceptionally lively one.
Mr.. Mullett, formerly Supervising
Architect of the Treasury, said to have
imbIbed such an erroneous impression
of the Governments inability to exist
without him that he yentured to sass
Secretary Bristow who Immediately re-
qussied his resignation, has improved
the occasion Of the New York Post Office
disaster to write several communications
The malice and vindiciyeness thatare
alleged 20 be two of his most prominent
characteristics, are so patent in these full
limitations against Mr. Hill, his successor,
thst they will likely react upon him if
Is is charged, he is seheming for REIN
statement However great Mr.. 4Iullettis
qualifications, or Mr.. Hills deficiencies,
the arrogant and despotic manner Of the
former while an Official as wen as the
danagingly familiar relations said to
have existed between him and some
members of the old District ring, will
probably operate against eradication
of his wishes relative to a reappoinment.
Since the decision TO postpone the
meeting of Congress it has also been de-
cided to make all intended changes in
our diplomatic representatives at once,
taking the chance of their confirmation
when the Senate meets. When it was
supposed Congress would meet in June
it was proposed to delay action until the
Resembling but that date is now so
distant, it is believed the country's inter
ests can be best subserved by prompt
