CalebCnatiliifiT—Ttao Excitement Over hia Nomination—'Tlio Cauetia the Cause ol* Cushing's Rejection— The Next President— 1 The Economy Forore-Npen* cor, of Ala., in a Bad llox— 1 The Spanish Mission. Special Correspondence of tho Kanjuinui.] Washington, January 20, 1874. Since tho impeachment trial of Andrew Johnson, no such excitement has agitated political circles as that which attended the nomination of Caleb Cushing for Chief Justice of the United States. The Presi dent and the friends of Air Cushing nat urally thought that, in consequence of the very unanimous endorsement given Mr. Cushing’s nomination for Minister to Madrid, the fulsome praise of Mr. Gush ing by the newspaper press, and the pop ular recognition of L\is great abilities, would assuredly work his confirmation for the Supreme Bench. Had it been possi ble to have had a vote on tbe nomination at the time it was received by tho Senate, confirmation would have followed. But Morton and Sargent defeated this, and during the iutorval of tho adjournment from Friday to Monday, the opponents of Mr. Cushing succeeded in raising such a clamor that all chance of his elevation was lost. Gen. Butler, who is credited with having Cushing nominated, worked hard among Senators to have hia friend confirmed, driving all d iy Sunday to their residences uud using every appeal ai d argument to secure this rosuit. Senator Conltlmg was also active for confirmation, as was Speaker Blaine, while Senator Sumner spoke warmly and earnestly ou the same side. Against confirmation Sen ators Morton, Sargent, Cameron, and a few Radical Eastern members of the House, were most active. The fight be came so acrimonious that the Administra tion Senators resolved ou a caucus ; an unusual thing in the matter of confirma tions. in caucus, which extended over two days, tho debate was marked by much bitterness, and Mr. Cushing's political views on reconstruc tion and tho issues involved iu the legisla tion growing out of reconstruction, as well as his “record” during the early days of the oivil war, were thoroughly can vassed. Finally, Mr. Sargent produced tee letter to Jefferson Davis, written by Mr. Cushing, March', 1881, introducing and recommending a man named Koane to hin consideration. This set tied the matter; but before the Senate got a ehnnoe to reject the nomination, the President withdrew it, forwarding to the Senate a letter from Mr. Cashing requesting this course. CAUSE OF CUSHINGS REJECTION. President Grant is very much chagrined at the result of the Cushing nomination, and it is more than probable that serious differences may yet arise between him and some Republican Senators in oonse- quence. The Roane letter was not the main cause of Mr. Cushing’s rejection— for he was virtually rejected. He would have been rejected had that letter never been written, and for two reasons : First, because many of the old abolition ele ment of the Republican party do not be lieve any but a pronounced believer in all their advanced political dogmas should be permitted to preside over the National Judiciary; and second, because others (and these embrace Senators of both par ties) think that Mr. Cushing, with all his brilliant talents and vast experience in affairs of governtneut, Hoes not possess those peculiar qualifications of mind to fit him to be Chief Justice. He is certaiuly a man of very flexible principles. He has served every administration, ayd is said to have contributed advice to President Johnson during his impeachment troublo, while at the same tirno ho was counselling the managers of that celebrated trial. Then he has been a jobber before Con gress for a quarter of a century, and is said to be mixed up with many questiona ble schemes that have been crowded through that body. Altogether, aside from the partisan aspect of the case, it is perhaps well tint Mr. Cushing was not confirmed. His peouiiar talents make him just the man to send to the Don Cmsar de Bazan court of Spain ; but these very talents unfit him to be Chief Justice of the United States.

The Appropriations Committee is de termined to reduce the expense of carry ing on the government, and have made investigations that will not show well for the heads of me Departments. In the Treasury alone there are at least one hun dred dorks that are not required, and some of the buicaus have now more cler ical hejp than during any year of the war, when three or four times the amount of work was presented. Siuoc the expos ure of Mr. Williams’ carriage and horses, a determined effort will he made to brei k up these shameful abuses. Borne of the finest turnouts daily seen on Pennsylva nia avenue are purchased out of the De partment contingent funds, and borne on the bill of expense as muil “express” and “mail wagons,” and many of the liveried Jehus nud footmen arc carried on Depart ment rolls as “messengers,” “laborers,” Ac. The recent financial puuic has hud a wholesome effeot on Congress in this regard, and the dominant party will l>e forced, as a matter of policy, if not from consideration of common decency, to cor rect these glaring stealings of Govern ment officials. As things are now con ducted tho Departments are so many asylums for hosts of political bummers, who are useful to Congressmen about elec tion p ills, and who are used us a source for supplying “the party” with money to debauch the voter and corrupt the fran chise. Il is out entirely the fault of the Secretaries that such a state of affairs ex ists. Congress authorizes tho number of employees in each Department, and Con gressmen particularly insist upon having their strikers placed upon tho several pay rolls. The Secretary of War informed me, a few days ago, that he had twice as many clerks as ho wanted, or as tho ne cessities of the War Department required, and-if he had his way he would snmmaii- ly cut off the superfluous heads. But when a vacancy occurs a dozen Congress men will place tho Department iu a state of siege until the vacancy be filled, re gardless of the fact that tbe services are not needed. The salary bill, whioh has occupied so much time of both Houses, has been finally acted upon and is now in tho hands of the President. It is reported that the President will veto the bill, holdidg that the salaries of cabinet ministers,and heads of bureaus, are entirely two small even.uu- der the act of March 1878. I believe myself these salaries, as well as those of Congressmen, are too small, but it is doubtful if the President will assume leg islative power aud veto a measure which has been only passed in obedience to the popular demand. SENATOR 8PNNOKH. There is urfeasiness iu the Alabama delegation just now, growing out of re cent developments affecting the character of Senator Spencer. It was stated that sometime since that among the papers of one Widmer, an lnternul Revenue Col lector in Alabama (now deceased), was found a note of Senator Spencer’s for $2,500. Widmer was a defaulter to the Government, and the inference wus drawn that the money for which this note was given was part of the funds misappro priated by Widmer. For publishing a statement to that effect Spencer is said to have brought suit for libel against the Montgomery Advertiser, claiming $10,- 000 damages. Now it is said that the re port of the special agent of the Internal Revenue Bureau, sent to Montgomery to investigate the matter, and which is on file in the Treasury Department, estab lishes the fact that such a note was found among Widmer’s papers, and it is hinted that this is not all, but that the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections has damaging documentary evidence •gainst Spencer. THE BANKRUPT BILL. as amended by the Senate, has not yet been acted upon in the House, but it iH pretty sure the House will concur. The House, it will be remembered, repealed tho Bankrupt act. The Senate passod a substitute repealing the involuntary deii-e of the present law, reducing the foes charged by officials, aud making such changes as the business wants of the country demanded. The Seuate last week occupied much time in discussing the financial problem, but thus far nothing has been resolvod from the moss of pulp introduced in both Houses. Nothing is heard from Butler’s Civil Rights bill. It was understood that it was referred back to the Judiciary Com mittee in order that tho mixed school sec tion should be stricken out, and one or two other changes made whioh were de manded by tho Southorn Republicans.
