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.

ECONOMY.
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
