The appointment for Berlin.

TIE nomination OF MIR. Bayard Taylor
has been received with an almost unex-
ampled unanimity of approval by the
press of the country. Among all the
graceful and generous things said Of Mr..
Taylor in connection with the nominal
ton, none will be more gratifying to his
friends than the following, from the New
York Epening Pest, to which an added
value is given by the information that it
is from the pen of Mr.. William Cullen
Bryant himself. iss q
The telegraph this morning brings
from Washington the news that the name
of Bayard Taylor has been sent in to the
Senate as our Minister to the Court of the
Emperor of Germany. The nomination
is one to which the whole country will
give its hearty approval, and which the
Senate will doubtless confirm without .
moments hesitation ON the part of even
those who are most inclined to stand in
the way of Mr.. Hayes administration.
Mr.. Taylor, although not politician in
the invidious sense Of the term, is not un-
familiar with diplomatic proceedings,
having filled for some time the post of
Secretary of Legation at st. Petersburg,
and distinguished himself by the able
discharge of its duties. He is man of
high personal character, be knows the
German language as well as his own; he
is already famous in Germany, and will
be received as our representative with en-
thusiasm. Need We add that his is an
intellect which riPens and gathers
strength with years, and brings tOthe Ia
bors which it undertakes faculties that
develop themselves in proportion to the
requirements of the occasion. Mr.. Tay-
Tor is lnan of wide observation of men
and things in his own country and in
other countries. If it is not true that
"home- keeping youth have ever horaely
Wits" it is certainly true that in sending
representative to foreign parts We
should not prefer housekeeping man.
Perhaps no American knows more Of the
world outside of America than does Mr..
Taylor. He has studied European lands
and peoples aud societies, not in books
merely, but by means Of that personal
examination aud contract Of which books
never car wholly supply the place, and
which 20 to the making Of books 1t Is
not merely the language Of Germany
which be has mastered, he has made q
special study Of Gesnaay-Germaa his-
tory, German literature, German life We
