Executive Mansion, Oct. 81, 1SS5.-For
nearly eight months a large share OF the
time OF the president has been devoted to
the hearing Of applications for office
and the determination Of appointments.
Much Of the time thus spent has I'M

OF il has been sacrificed to the indulgence oil
people in their NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. upon use
less interviews, and some of it has been un.
iustiiably wasted. The public welfare and
a due regard for the claims Of those whose
interests in the government are entirely dis
connected with oiiiceholding imperatively
demand hat in the future the time Of the
president should be differently occupied,
and he confidently expects that all
good citizens will acquiesce In the propriety
and re~asonableness Of the following plan,
adopted to the end: After the first day Of
November the president will decline to
grant interviews to hose seeking public
positions or their advocates. On Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays, during that
month, from 10 to II O'Clock in the morn
ing, he will receive such other persons as
call ON strictly public business. and on the
same days at 1870 in the afternoon he will
meet those who merely desire to pay their
respects. On all other days and times dur
ing that month he will receive cabinet Off
