law, the suspension Of silver coinage,
and other important questions oC lcgisla-
tion. While the President has thrown
away an opportunity to strengthen his
administration in public favor at its start,
he will be forgiven the absence of infor-
nation as to his intentions if his work
proves acceptable.
But no ambiguity Of expression at this
time will excuse future failures. His
avowed position respecting tho civil SER
vice, and his recent attempt TO bring his
party in congress to realizing sense of
its duty upon tho silver question, give
promise on his part to step beyond party
lines, if it be necessary. to secure to the
country wise aud salutary legislation.
And in default of anything moro specific

ply hope that this will be the policy of

the following instruction was prepared

DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, ID. c.,
March 0. 1SS5.--JAMES RUSSELL. LOWELL, ESQ,
&c.-ST' You will recall tho circumstances
under which the Alert was presented 10 the
United states by her maJesty's government in
| February, 1854
A devoted band Of observers, under the com
mand of Lieut.. a. W.. Greedy, of the United

tablished a scientific station as part OF n
general international scheme OF Arctic

in retreating from the post II held. At a time

uniortunatcs, Her majesty's government, in IL

President Cleveland has not ss yet
formally nominated his cabinet TO the
senate for confirmation. Until he does
so he has IL in his power to change any Of
the names now given out rs having beon
determined upon. But IL Is not likely
thatany such change will be made, and tho
country can be reasonably well assured
that Messrs Bayard, Manning, Lamar,
Endcott, Whitney, Garland, aud Villas
will form his family ofadvisers at the out
set of his administration.
This list gives five cabinet positions to
states that gave their electoral votes for
Cleveland and two that votod adversely
to him. Three go to the solid south and
two to New York. The other two 90 to
Massachusetts, and Wisconsin, both of
which states cast their vote for Blaine.
Connecticut, Now Jersey, and Indiana
arc ignored,
Bayard, Lamar Garland, and, in a
lessor degree, Villas arc men Of national
reputation, and all men of strong mental
ity. Manning, Whitney, aud Endicott
are unknown men in national sense,
and tho measure Of their fitness for the
great trust given into their care remains
to be demonstrated. No one knows any
thing concerning them that justilios their
selection to tho exclusion of such mon as
Thurman, Mcdonald, or Gov. Waller.
Tho solid south elected Mr.. Cleveland,
and it is but ft that he should recognize
it, as he has done, but tho soldiers of the
north will reflect that from a democratic
president only could II be possible that
an appointment would emanate plac-
ing the pension Office in control of
one who was not only q rebel himself,
but is to-day tho fiery defender Of jeff
Davis, ready, upon his own declaration,
to resent at any time or place the charge
that the arch spirit of the rebellion was
u traitor.
The business and financial interests of
the country will question the judgment
that conndes tho treasury to Mr.. Man
ming. He will DO contrasted with Chase,
McCulloch, aud Sherman, and when their
splendid achievements are remembered il
will be asked what title he has to succeed
such tnanciors. No satisfactory reply can
be given to the query; for whilo no ono
can doubt Mr.. Manning's acquaintance
with the intricacies of ring politics. there
is no public evidence of his fitness to con.
troll the vast affairs of the national treas.
ury, or that he has any acquaintance
whatever with financial science.
The selection of two members from
the Presidents own state will pot
be pleasing to his party, thouIS
such action is not without pre-, d
dent iu former administrations. But
in this case democracy has been out o.
power 30 long that the party naturally
feels that the offices should be made t.
so around as far as possible, and will moi
feel comfortable over the appropriation
of two secretaryships to the Presdent't
New York chums, neither of whom are
well known outside of the state.

A ROW IN THE BALL ROOM.
A Hat the Cause and "a Police Trial
the Probable Result.

the Probable Result.
A FREQ fight, with plenty of chances for
o free flow Of gore, took place at the
entrance to the wine room of tho
ball last night. Mr. ID. r. Mckee
had placed his crushed hat, emblaz.
oned with his initials on the crown,
on table near whore he was sitting with
friend, and saw a stout gentleman ap-
propriate the property. Thinking it a
harmless error easy to rectify he followed
the individual and said in his blandest
tone: "You have my hat SIR" The
other turned on him and with pro.
fuse profanity denied the impeachment
This angered the loser more than tho pos
sibility of being left hatless, and no other
course seeming open he called upon
policeman standing near, Officer Schultz,
to arrest the purloiner of his property.
The officer did his duty promptly, despite
the protests of his prisoner. Just
then vgilant special, statesman from
Swampoodle, came upon the scene and
grabbed the gentleman In blue, saying.
The man is drunk" referring either to
the prisoner or his captor. The former
proved to be Judge Ash Wheeler,
of the Brooklyn circuit court.
The Judge had friends present
and simultaneously with the specials
interference several Tammany braves
came up to see that their friend was freed
from tho odious clutch of the law. Let
that gentleman 60" said one, putting a
revolver muzzle under the officers ear,
''or I'll I'LL you full of holes" The pris-
oner was released, tho officer finding his
attention fully occupied with his special"
friend. They were finally parted. the
officer having the promise of charges to
be preferred against him by a member of
some committee. The hat was subse-
quently returned through an adroit
mannuvre of Lieut.. Kelly and the origi-
nal belligerents shook hands.
