Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1881-11-23

From our Regular Correspondent

to New York fresh batch of gossip ant
Cabinet rumors have started. One o
these is revival of the report that Mr.
Arthur seriously contemplates bringing
a wife to preside over the White House
This is denied by those who profess t.
know, yet everybody admits that il
would be very nice thing for such 6
handsome widower to do. Those wri
tiers who speak of President Arthur as
who was lady well known in Wash
ingtOn, died but short time previous
to his election to the Vice Presidency.
She was All intimate friend of Mrs. Gen
Sherman and was so much attached to
pressed to Gen. Sherman an intention
to call and pay his respects. 1t was
suggested, however, that court etiquette
made it proper for Mrs. Sherman to call
at the Presidents house instead, which
she did a day or two ago, &C companied
by her little daughter. President
Arthur was very deeply attached to
his wife, it is said, and has lately taken
the same pew in St. Johns Episcopal
church which she formerly occupied.
The correspondent of a Boston paper
recently stated that Mr. Arthur is the
third bach elor President within twenty
five years. This is wrong again. James
Buchanan is the only bachelor occupy
ing the office during that time.
The latest political gossip briefly
stated is to the effect that Secretary
Lincoln will not remain in the Cabinet,
having no particular desire for the
place, especially as there is considerable
feeling between him and Gen Sherman.
It is also alleged that Frelinghuysen
will not now be Secretary of State, hav-
ing lost heavily in the bursted Newark |
bank, and, feeling unable to keep up a
$4,000 establishment here on $4,000. |
Postmaster General James, it is said,
las arranged to take care Of Wander
bits bank on the first of next January.

t is stated upon pretty good authority
hat George c. Gorham will succeed

treasury. George stands no chance to
ver again be Secretary of the Senate,

ringing Mahone's vote over to the Re-

lie is now talked of for Cabinet po-
ition and as possible candidate for
he Vice Presidency. Virginia is too
mall for him hereafter, and he pro-
oses carrying the war into other South
IN States. One drawback to this pro-
is the fact that none of the
tner States have big debt to repudi-
