Zen Buffers Book.

WASHINGTON, April 28.-It is said that Gen
eral Butler, who started out little while ago to
write the story Of his tempestuous career, has
modified and changed his plan considerably. In
stead of, as at first intended making the vol
ume one connected tale, he will aim at chatty
paragraphs, devoting here a chapter to remins-
cence about one contemporary, and there chap
ter to racy anecdotes about another. There will
be no learned disquisitions or analytical studies,
such as mark Mr. Banes book but the one all
ruling idea will be to make the volume interest
ing. 1t is stated that there is pretty sharp com
petition among the publishers for the honor and
prof: of bringing this production out

THE PRESIDENTS REGRETS.

Before the opinion Of the Attorney general had
been communicated to Mr.. Lawton and under
date of April II, he wrote the Secretary of State
expressing his firm belief in his eIigi-
bility. but requesting that his name be
not further considered in connection
with the place. Before this letter reached its
destination. Mr.. Lawton received telegram
from the Secretary of State, based upon the de-
termination of the President to be guided by the
opinion of the Attorney general informing Mr.
Lawton that the President desired him to pro-
coed with his preparations for accepting the
mission. The following is President Cleyelands
reply to Mr. Lawtons final defamation:

rho FIRST John Murray.


The first John Murray, the grand
father Of the present occupant of No.
so Albenlarle Street. Scotchman. well
born, and. like Sir Walter Scott, the
SON Of an Edinburgh writer to the sig
net, was lieutenant in the marines,
when, at the age of twenty-thrce. ne
threw up his commission, and appar-
entity without any previous training or
experience TO fit him for the change.
became bookseller. and founded what
Is now and has long been one of the
most famous and fruitful OF English
publishing houses. Not only so, he
narrowly missed having as his partner
at starting in his new enterprise an
other young ScotcnnIan. at this time
in the naval service of his country. who
is donbly remembered as the author of
almost our solitary nautical epic, and
by the melancholy circumstance of his
death.
On starting as a bookseller and pub
lhher in Fleet Street, cx-Lieutenant
McAiurraY dropped the Me" and
called himself simply Murray" This
was O curtailment of surname signifi-
cant Of aud due to the keenly anti
Scottish feeling then prevalent in Lon
don and in England. One old associ-
alton, however, of his pre-bibliopolic
days the new John Murray of Fleet
Street cherished SO fondly that as a
memorial of his lieutenancy of marines
and of service ahoat "a ship in full
SAIL figured in the bill-heads of his
accounts. This founder Of the pub
fishing house of Murray was an able,
energetic, and cnterprising man, though
perhaps moro of bookseller than a
publisher. Traffic in the literature of
medicine formed a large element in his
bibliopolic operations, and in old rec
ords of 1.-THE trade" there is frequent
mention of s'Mr. Murray, the medical
bookseller of Fleet Street, Among
his publishing achievements was the
issue OF Langhorne's Plutarch, which
is still marketable, of Mitford's now
almost forgotten, but once and Justly
celebrated, History of Greece, and,
still moro noticeable, of the thin octa-
vo in which Isaac Disraeli gave to tho
world, without an authors name, the
first installment Of the Curiosities of
Literature. Isaac Disraeli was then a
shy. studious young man, and SO little
did he foresec the success of his anony-
nous venture that he made over to the
first John Murray the copyright as an
inducement to risk its publication. He
rcpurchased the copyright, as bis still
moro famous son, who died Lord Bea-
consiield. has recorded, at a public sale
some years subsequently,, probably af-
ter the death of the publisher. The
thin octave was the prolific parent Of
a series of Curiosities of Literature,
which created new school of literary
and other anecdote at a time wheE ev-
erything of the kind was so dull or so
worthless that Samuel Rogers pro-
nounced the world to be "far gone in
