APPOINTMENT.
The president to day appointed Morris
Friedsam collector of the district of New
York, vice Max Weber, resigned.
CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINER.
The attorney general has given an opin-
ion to the president, that the chief exam
liner under the civil service commission is
an officer of the United States, and as such
his appointment is vested in the president.
The question of the selection of the chef
examiner has, however, been referred to
the commission, and the appointment will
be based upon their recommendation.
ARTHUR ILL.
The president is still indisposed, and to-
day refused to see all visitors excepting
intimate friends. He has been suffering
some time from catarrhal affection, and
is considerably annoyed at its tenacity.
He will probably take trip to Fortress
Monroe toward the end of the present
week.

an interview with the secretary of the in
terror to-day, and complained of trespass
on their timber lands.

The diplomatic correspondence of the
year 1882, transmitted to congress with the
last annual message of the president, is
now in course of publication by the gov
| eminent printing Office, and when COM
plstsd will make volume of about 600
pages. Nearly all selected letters and lex
tracts" from letters of any general i'm
portance, now printed by the government

present interest, are two letters, written by
Minister Lowell and Secretary Freling-
huysen, in regard to the Irish prevention
of crime act" They appear in the volume
as follows:
LOWELL TO FRELINGHUYsRs," EXTRACT 1913.
LEGATION UNITED STATES,
LONDON, July IA, 1882.
Sir: 1 have the honor to inclose two
copies of the crime in Ireland act, which
has just received the royal assent. 1t is a
revival of the alien act, which alone direct
~ concerns our relations with this govern
ment. Questions are likely to arise under
it which will need to be treated with ex-
treme delicacy and discretion. 1t will be
rather to the personal application of the
act rather than to its principle, that the
objection will be. and 1 should be glad
to be armed beforehand with
the opinion of the president as
to what my general line of action SHOULD
be under these new circumstances. There
must be great numbers of naturalized
American citizens in Ireland besides those
that have rendered themselves obnoxious
to the local authorities and alien.
The clauses OF the act of May will very
probably strengthen the temptations of
private enmity 10 bring false accusations,
rs it undoubtedly increases the opportuni-
ty for them. have every reason to believe
that under the present government the act
will be applied with caution and discrimi-
nation, but change of the ministry may
take place at any moment. In any event,
however, think myself safe in predicting
that the provisions of the act will be
brought to bear only in the case of men
who have made or may make themselves
particularly prominent by Indictment to
disorder or defiance of authority. 1 have,
etc. Signed, j. r. LOWELL.
Frelinghuysen to Lowell:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. %, 1882. )
Sir: have in an instruction of the 18th
of August last, acknowledged the receipt
of your dispatch of the 14th of July, in
relation to the prevention of crime in
ireland" AN act recently passed theby Brit
ish parliament. The careful attention
which you have evidently given the sub
ject and your just comments on the policy
that could have dictated so extraordinary
measure, and the country whose tradi-
tional history in regard to freedom of in
dividual, the security of domicile, and
the right of every man accused
of crime to an impartial trial, has formed
its GROWING glory, relieve me from the
necessity of giving you anything more than
general directions as to your future con-
duct in connection with the cases affecting
American citizens that may possibly come
before you. Nevertheless, deem it proper
