"LITTLE MAC ,,

There is some taiE IN Washington OF giving
General Mcclellan q 6rst-clsss mission
abroad. while others say ne will 90 into the
Cabinet. We learn through one of those
wonderful special dispatches that are con.
antiy fitting over the wires from the East
to he Republican papers of the West
that Mr. Cleveland is under special
obligations to General Mcclellan; that be is
the only prominent msn from whom Cleve-
land asked personal favor during the
Presidential campaign. 1t is only valuable
in this connection TO show to what straits
the Republican correspondents ara some
times put to meet the demands of
the party for something new and
peculiar, if not sensational. The circum-
stances as the story goes we're that P1rcsll,
the New York editor who deserted CIeve-
land, had agreed to preside at Democratic
mass-meeting in Rochester il Cleveland him
self would sit on the platform. The great
Blaine Businessmen demonstration took
place in New York about this time, and the
Democratic managers imperstively de-
manded Cleveland's presence in that city at
similar parade as an Offset TO the Repub-
lican boom. The day fixed upon was that OF
the Rochester meeting. Cleveland could not
be in both places at once, and could
afford neither to refuse Purcelps flag of truce
nor stay away from New York. In his
dilemma be appealed TO Mcclellan, who was
the only man whose presence il place OF the
Presidential candidate would satisfy Purcell.
Mcclellan was booked to speak at Morris
town that evening. but after some negotis.
tons consented to break that engagement
and 90 in Clevelsnd's place to Rochester.
He there made the Purcell meeting great
success while Cleveland in New York re-
vived his boom. Those who should be in
McClellan's confidence say that the real OBJ
ject of his ambition is not q Cabinet Office,
but an appointment abroad, and we'll
informed men speak OF him as the next
! Minister to Rome. IL would seem that
General Mcclellan would need 10 such 3
brand of credit as outlined in the foregoing
to recommend him to the good
offices and favorable consider
alton of the incoming administrs-
ton. The General has been the candidate
of the grand old Democratic party for the
Presidency. and that is sufficient. His am
bition will probably be gratifed, il within
the power of Mr.. Cleveland, without any ref
erence to the incident of having at one time
presided over a Democratic meeting in
I Rochester.

ming pre- eminently displayed IN the recent
National canvass. To him and to his astute
and accomplished management Mr.. Cleve-
lands nomination was due; and yet, when
the election was over, though after q most
passionate contest the candidate had sue
ceeded by slender plurality which barely
fulfilled the requirements of the law, and
though the Democracy of New York had
been profoundly divided in the struggle, so
that those who resisted Mr.. Manning were
scarcely less numerous than those who
went with him, yet this successful
manager had Just as many friends
snd Just as few enemies as when
the battle was first joined. Indeed, he
probably had more friends and fewer enc
mics and what is true of him is equally true
of the Albany Argus, the journal he con-
trolls.
We submit that, in view of facts like
these, the remarks OF the InterOcean sre
conspicuousIy untrue; and so, too, are the
remarks of that other prominent Republi-
can journal of the West, the Pioneer Press
of MINES which AYERS that Mr.. Man
ming is "a machine politician of the most
pronounced and dangerous type, and
should not be permitted to NEEDLE with the
affairs OF Government in an Official capRc-
ity."
This is nonsense run wild and those who
know Mr.. Manning best will join Us in the
opinion that, looking the whole country
through, Mr.. Cleveland could hardly make a
more advisable appointment than that
which these Republican journals so violently
and uDjustly condemn.

A ohip of the Old Block.
milwaukee Sentinel,

Sam Randall, Jr., is politically speaking.
"a chip of the old block" He is only y
years of age, but has already established
reputation for political cleverness among
the boys Of Capitol hill by having one of
his chums appointed page in the House.
The young man is now rejoicing in an
autograph letter from the President-elect.
He is probably one of the few persons in
Washington thus honored. Before the
election Sammy addressed Mr.. Cleveland
an epistle assuring him of his warm sup
port. while regretting that the boys of
Capitol hill made it rather hot for him by
their enthusiastic support of Mr.. Blaine.
Sammy was somewhat chagrined at not
getting an early reply, but excused it on
the suggestion OF his father that it was in
discreet in candidates to write letters. A
week or two ago, however, be wrote to
Mr.. Cleveland again, reminding him of the
previous letter, and hoping now an answer
might be expected. The President was in
formed that the Blaine boys Of the hill
were now singing very small-in fact, we're
not so Zip" as they had been by a long
chalk. Mr. Cleveland's reply has been ex.
hibited to nearly every body at the Capitol.
Sammy received q handsome apology for
the neglect to answer the first letter, aud
is congratulated on his efforts TO secure a
great Democratic victory under the adverse
surroundings OF Capitol hill. He is cor
daily invited to be among the first to vel
come a Democratic President 10 the White
House. Sammy says he is going to stand
on the White House steps when the new
President drives up from the Capitol en-
the 4th of March and cheer for Cleveland

dismissed from the army that his position
might be filed by his friend Sharpe, who
now draws s., 500 year as Chairman of the

The Court Martial, By its refusal to obey the

correspondent says: 1.-THE managers of the
trunk lines anticipate such rush of travel
that they have ordered the regular heavy
freight trains to be withdrawn from the

morrow until March 6. Only light freights
carrying necessary market supplies are to

pleted q new series of telegraph stations
between Washington and Baltimore, so that
on the line OF that road there is now g

We have ell been so engrossed in political
