these dispatches a few days ago. the effort
was made to reconsider the vote by which the
nomination OF Mr.. John V. L. Findley OF Mary
land to be Chiian arbitrator was rejected.

settle. Mr.. Findlay was Democrat. and. al

he was opposed by the Maryland delegation.

for the Office. Tho result being. apparent, it is
