James Freeman Clarke, made at the dinner

II have read them with qualification. We
all of us have kindly feeling towards MI
Schurz. who has debated so well Some % the

A CORRESPONDENT of the Albany Ecfhthg
Journal, says that in the interview between
the President und Senator Conkling, that has
been SO much talked about, Mr.. Conhling
suggested that Gen. Merritt would probably
continue in office as Collector until his term
expired. unless he should prefer some other
posilion-a foreign appointment, Tor IN
stance. This remark, was regarded as a
fccler by the President, and he replied that
Mr. Conkling was quite right that no change
was contemplated III that Office al present
unless Mr. Merritt should resign. Mr.. Conk-
ling subsequently wrote 10 Collector Merritt
that it was understood IN Washington that
there were To be changes made in the Custom
House, and adding that if Mr.. Merritt would
like 10 have II foreign appointment IL Womb
give him (COukling) great pleasure to render
him all the assistance in his power. On read
ing the letter Mr.. Merritt was convinced that
the President had surrendered everything 10
Conkling, and that his official head was
doomed Whether he was inclined To ieel
grateful to Conklng for his kind proilcr OF
aid in securing him foreign appointment
is not known, but il did occur to him that
if he was TO he sent abroad, he might per
haps be permitted TO suggest the place he
would like to go to. lie therefore sat down
Immediately and wrote letter TO Pres-
dent Garfield, in which he said 1t had been
intimatcd to him that he might have Il Tor
eign appointment and asking if the position
of Consul General to London could convcn-
icntly be assigned to him. What was his
surprise on seeing the very day following
the receipt of his letter by the President, his
name sent 10 the Senate for the position he
asked, coupled with that of Judge Robertson
for the Collcctorship. But il Merritt was
surprised, Conkling was thundcrsruck. lie
had succeeded in making vacancy IN the
Collcctorship, but the man who was to Ill
the vacancy was not the man lac intended,
at the proper time, to suggest. To most
people 1t would appear that the only man
who acted in II straightforward way IA tins
business. without duphciiy or deceit. was
