sonal friend of Tucker S. says the
appointments have got to stand
or he will leave the cabinet. liar-
ason would be only too glad to
please Blame, but cracking over
his head is the soldier whip which
he has complacently obeycd for
so many years that he doesn't
know what to say when it tells
him that Tucker shall not be ap-
pointed. The outcome is there
fore in doubt, with the chances
slightly in Blaine's favor. in the
meantime the fight is making a
regular circus for the democrats
who are, as the boys say, con to
it,.

acting Secretary.
Harrison has appointed Parsons
Itle man who engineefed the
recent white Mans Party"
movement in Alabama, u S.
Attorney for the Northern and
Middle district of that State. On
the face of it this locks like II
back set for The "nigger,'' but
when the fact is known, as il is
generally here, that two Of the
most prominent negro republican
politicians in the State Of Ala bama
were IN Washington for some days
actively working IN behalf Of Par-
sons, the set back snot SO appar-
cnt.
Samuel j. Randall. that old war
horse Of democracy, says moth
ing but disscnton IN our own
ranks can prevent tso democratic
party from elecung the next
President. Many Iong-headed
democrats think Sam Randall
would make a winning candidate.
Mrs Kate Chase is preparing an
account of her distinguished
father s lIfe. 1t VIII be Il very
interesting work, and no one IS 50
well equipped as she to write 1t,
for in addition to having in her
possession all oil the original
papers, she was for many years
his confidential private Secretary.
II she tells only half She knows it
will causp a rattling OF dry bones
among mauy Of our Older poIiii-
cians
Ex-Sccretary Bayafd VIII be
married III this city on tie 18th,
INST. to Miss Clynor.
Quite number Of democratic
Officials who had grown tired Of
waiting for the appointment Of
their successors rendered their
designations last week.
Nobody licre is preparing for
war notwithstanding the absurd
report sent here from Canadu,
that Euglish mcn>ol-war would

engaged q taking seals IN
Behring's sea. The report did
nvt create a ripple on the Surface
Of affairs here. IL carried Its con-
tradictlon on its face.
Land Commissioner Stcckslag-
er, who was requested bv the
President 10 remain in Office until
the Oklahoma settlement WAS we'll
over, has resigned. He leaves an
envlabc record.
Gen Bussey Assistant Secretary
Of The Interior, the only man III
the country that has gone furher
than Corporal Tanner ii his ideas
of pensioning .Ex-Union soldiers,
is somewhat torn up ia rlnd on
account of the Inscription on the
monument recently erected to | {

ably forgot TO submit the inscrip
ton to Buster beg pardon, Bpssey F,
for bis approval before having it

drove q four mile team or done
any other redicu'ous thing to keep
himself before the plbIIc. The
old gentleman must not be feeling
well.
