seekers as hungry as ever. Yes, we might
say, hungrierl Old trappers and hunters
are accustomed, at times when food is
scarce, to draw their hunting belt, q little

much nerve and endurance as II they had

per kind suggestion to the hungry DEM

Rhode Island clam.bakt,, and as iubilant
as missionaries awaiting 10 be roasted.
/ The boys on the outside, though, are full
OF gall and bitterness, and wonder when
the PROGRESSION will move.
It's pretty generally believed here, that
Mr.. McGraw will not get the CollectoIship
until next winter. His friends seemto
fear that II the President appoints him
now the Senate will refuse TO confirm him
next winter. If'this sentiment becorrect
and the harvest pass by without any oili-
cial change in the position OF Collector,
the army Of small Try who are expecting
togrow fat on the crumbs which are TO
drop from Mr.. McGraw's table, will dwin-
die into inothingness and curse the. .fates
which make II SO long between drinks.
AMBITIOUS WEST yiR6INiANs.
1t is understood that 1lon.7 E. Boyd
Faulkneris still on The. ragged edge Of
suspense. He Is anxious to secure the
Belgium mission; and il West Virginia is
to receive q diplomatic post Of anyimport-S
anee, II is 70 be hoped that The honor may
fall TO Nj. Faulkner. As long as charges
have to be made and our country repre-.
sented at foreign courts bynew diplomats,
by all means let the administration select
the best and fittest representatives. All
who know Mr.. Faulkner feel that in his
hands the Interests of this country would
Ibeupheld and protected with honor and
credit. Themission pays$7 800 per annpm.
But think OF Central America | SIC, ,000l 4
oris IL Sle, 500? Ajolly nice mission, and.
