How Judge Black got In the Cabi'

Judge William A. Porter relates in

ed the PresideBt.elect, Buchanan, TO
make Judge "Jere" Black a member
of his Cabinet. "No," said Buchanan,
"Judge Black can never enter my Cabi-
net. y Some time ago l was invit.
ed to dinner by Mr.. --. Governor
Bigler and Judge Black were also In
vited. The Governor aud | were
punctual to the minute. Half an honr
passed and Judge Black did not come.
Mrs. - was anxious, and, as an old
bousekeeper, knew the reason. re.
qnested her to order up the dinner, and
said would settle with Judge Black.
When the dinner was half over the
Judge came in, and |, being much
older man, did settle with him and told
hi m some things which he will not be
likely to forget soon. n Now, if !
should appoint such Il man mbel
of my Cabinet what would bs the re-
suit? He would give a dinner and in.
vite the Russian Minister, and forge,
all about the dinner and come home
late at night. What would be the eff.
feet? The Russian Minister would
consider this a personal insult, and
nearly equal to declaration of wa,

terprises. The Presbyterian population
viii soon be accommodated with new

by the removal of Trinity church from

In all that section from Grace church
ut Ninth and West streets, to MI. Salem
Church, distance of about two miles,
the Methodists have no church, unless
Riddles Chapel, ,on the Brandywine out
side the city limits, be counted as one.
There are a large number of Metho-
dist families spread over this section
who find it very inconvenient to attend
either Mt. Salem or the city churches,
and would be glad ifthere was a church
of their denomination about midway
betwee the two, which would be some

be done and to take steps for the build.

FaiIure of Iames u. Chanmnn.

The book and stationery store of James j..
Chapman, No. OH Pennsylvania avenue, was
yesterday closed and the stock is now In tho
hands of the Marshal. This failure was not en-
tirely unexpected Mr.. Chapman was some years
ago clerk In the Treasury Department, but
resigned to accept the position OF bookkeeper
for the firm Of Philip & Solomons, at the same
location. When this firm failed their heaviest
creditors, Lawrence & Co., of New York, placed
Mr.. Chapman In charge of the business. He
continued for while and was partially sue
cessful, but later asked for an exten-
sion of time. Lawrence x Co. objected
to this, and claimed that having
started Mr.. Chapman in business their claims
should have the preference. This being re-
fused they entered suit, but while this was
pending Mr.. Chapman confessed judgment to
his other creditors, who took possession, but
allowed Mr.. Chapman to keep open until last
Saturday, when the stock was turned over to
the Marshal. The liabilities are said to be
heavy, and the assets small. Lawrence & Co.
are losers, 1t is understood, to the eStent OF
about $4,000. The other creditors are Baker,
Pratt 4 Co.. NJ. A. Reay, Harriet NIcCeney, Dan
lei Slate 4 Co., and Vernon Bros. & Co. Mr..
Chapman, upon being questioned last night
about the failure, stated that he had nothing
TO say. The stock will be sold on the 23d inst.
Mr. Chapman had number Of Government
contracts, and the fact that he had not the
goods to fill these was, 1t is stated, another
cause of failure
