THE LAW OF THE MATTER.
IBY TELEGRAPH THE TRIBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, March 19.-The failure of the
Senate to confirm several appointments made by the
President during the special session. does not neces
sarly prevent the persons receiving those appoint
ments from assuming the duties of the offices for
which they were designated provided the President
desires them to do so. The tenure of Office act
passed in 1867 provides that, During any recess of
the Senate the President is authorized in his dis
cretOn to suspend any civil officer appointed by and
with the advice and consent of the Senate, eXcept
judges of the courts of the United States until the
end of the next session of the Senate and to
designate some suitable person subject to be
removed in his discretion by the designation of
another to perform the duties of such suspended
officer IN the mean time. The President shall,
within 80 days after the commencement OF each
session of the Senate, except for any office which, in
his opinion, ought not to be filed, nominate persons
to fill all vacancies in office which exist at the meet
ing of the Senate, whether temporarily filed or not
and also in the place of all officers suspended and
if the Senate during such session, shall refuse to
advise and consent to appointment in the place OF
any suspended officer, then and not Otherwise the
President shall nominate another person as soon
as practicable to the same session OF the
Senate for the Office" All postmasters, United
States marshals, and other bonded officers are held
responsible for all United States property in
their possession and for the proper discharge of the
duties of their office until their are quail
fed In the cases in which the Senate failed to act
upon the nominations at its late session the old Off
GERS continue to perform their duties just as though
their terms had not expired and the President had
nominated no persons in their places. 1t is there
fore in his power, under the Tenure Of Office act,
to make new appointments in his discretion,
and as the Senate refused to confirm no
one, he may appoint the same persons whose
names he sent to the Senate and which were laid
aside without action. The most important of these
cases were those of Mr. Potts nominated TO be Post
master at Petersburg, Va, and Mr. Wadron to be
United States Marshal for the Western District OF
Tennessee. Both of these nominations went over on
account of an objection by Senator. which was
undoubtedly made because tie candidates were
Democrats. This does not, however, prevent the
President from Immediately appointing and com
missoning them, and if he does so they may eXrr-
else the duties of the Offices until the close of the
next session of the Senate. until their successors
are qualified.
