To all this he has replied very de
,cidedly that his recent letter on the
subject means exactly what he said,
and that those who construed it diff
ferantly would be mistaken. He
did not, he said, praPo,e to remove
any Republican officer who had been
faithful to his duties, and whose
administration Of his office was sat.
isfactory to ths public, who are i'm.
mediately concerned. When the
terms Of such officers expired, he
expected to fill their places with
good men Of his own party, if they
could be found, which he did mo-
doubt. There might be reasons il
some cases why this positionsho ult
net be adhered to, but under all or
dinary circumstances it would b
the rule. Nothing could he fsire
or more candid. OF course thi
will not please those who put part
before principle, whether Demo
Gratis or Republicans; but it wi
please the intelligent, independer
