St. Lawrence. Mr. nay will leave
here as soon as the Philadelphia ap
pointments are settled, which it is
expected tlu-j will be in a few days.
In fact they arc as Lod as settled
already; all parties having agreed on
the following f-late: Field, post
master (it will be remembered that
Postmaster-General W.-tnaniakvr ten- -dered
him the position early ia the
administration, and that Senator
Quay's protest promoted his appoint
ment by the president), LacIs, sur
veyor (he was Senator Quay's candi
date tor postmaster), and Cooper,
collector ot customs. It is generally
believed that these appointments will
be made this week.
Secretary Blaine and the president
ate very much pleased with the re
btilt of the Samoau commission
which has jnst finished its sittings at
Berlin. The agreement or treaty
thera is a dispute as to which it
really is wbioh was ratified, gives
the United States everything that
was expected, in fact much more -than
was expected without a hard
struggle . Rut it is not so much what
was actually gained that pleases Mr.
Blaine and the president as the man
ner in which it was gained. Never
before have American commissioner
been tr ated by those af the great
European powe-s with the courtesy
and deference that Messrs. Phelps,
Karson aad Rates have received from
the English and German members ot
