appreciation by the most extravagant
demonstrations. II is divided into six
parts and lasts forty minutes, closing
with a striking tableau; and the curtain

John Tyler changed his cabinet Off
GERS more frequently than any presi-
dent before or after him. This was
due in part to the fact that he sue
ceeded to the heads of departments of
his chief, who died in Office, and quar-
relied with them, and that he became
arrayed afterwArd against the Wing
party which elected him. He had
three secretaries of state, three secre-
taries of treasury, four secretaries OF
war, three attorneys general, five sec
retaries of the navy and two postmas-
ters-general.
His official family included five such
national figures rs Daniel Webster,
John G. Calhoun, Thomas Ewing, John
Bell and John j. Crittendeu. Tyler
tried some of his men in several posi-
lions, practice in which Mr.. Cleve-
land has initiated him. Abel 2. Up
shur was both secretary of state and
of the navy, and John G. Spencer was
both secretary of the treasury and OF
the war department.
