AProrntsp.—C. J, Smith and H. 8. Martin have been appointed storekeepers and gaugers: for the 6th district of North Carolina and the ‘1sth district of Ohio, respectively. Cart. Robert Y. HOLLEY has been appointed consul to Barbadoes. THE PRESIDENT has appointed J. E. Lutz, D. P. Foley and R. W. Thompson to ba third lleu- tenants ia the revenue marine service. These are promotions from the rank of cadet. ‘THE PRESIDENT Saw very few people to-day. Gen. Tyner, Gen. Hazen and Auditor Alexander were among those who had audience with him. Senator Blair called on tne President this after- noon. No CHANGE ON THE CHINESE Evpassy.—The rumor that another minister had been appointed to represent the Chinese empire here is incor- Tect. Nor Eticrstz.—Gen. Wm. H. Payne, of War- Fenton, is prominently mentioned as the demo- cratic nominee for governor. “He can’t run,” Virginia democrat: to a Srar reporter. he ta disfranchised. for having aiden and abetted a duel, and the sooner his name is dropped the better for the democrats.” Cariro. Emrioyrs RgMoven.—Charles 8, Draper, who had been inthe employ of the Senate for eighteen years, and H. H. Williams, a red messenger, have been removed by Sergeant at-Arms Bright. THE PENSION Bvpeer.—JIt 1s sald that $100,000,000 will be required to pay the pensions next year. This year $70,000,000 will be ex- pended. THE NEW PENSION OFFICE SITE.--Socretary Kirkwood told a representative of Tas Srak to-day that he did not think any action would be taken with reference to the selection of a site for the Pension Office until Cons reme- died the defect in the law. He sal The in- tention of Con: was that a Pension Oice bullding should be erec'ed this summer, Tae law, however, belag defective, no bullding can beerected. There is no reason why there should be aby hurry in selecting a site for a butlding when the builaing cannot be put up. Hence, it is my judgment that the whole matter should be left open until Congress again meets and cures the existing defecis in the law.” EX-COMMISSIONER OF PSNSIONS BENTLEY was tendered and declined a foreign appointment. Its not improbable that he wili be given a Judicial position tn one of the territories, THE NEWLY AFroinTeD Commisstoner of the General Land Office, Mr. McFarland, of Kan- sas, has not yet telegraphed Secretary Kirk- wocd when he will assume charge of the Land Office, As the place 1s vacant, the Secretary expects he will be here next week to take charge. SUNDAY SCHOOL CHILDREN AT THE Wars Hovss.—Methodist Episcopal Sunday schoo! pupils of Easton, Maryland, numbering about two hundred, are in the city to-day, on an ex- cureion, They were received at the White House this afternoon by the President.

There-were wit him Representative Russell Erratt, Cc Samuel Barr and Mr. Jeremy, Tne Senato wants to have F, P. Core appotate t colleztoc 0 Internal revenue at Pittsburg in piace of Ph Davis. The latter claims that all the Welsh people who abound in that section want him retained. It appears, however, taat Mr. Jer. eis who is a Welshman, tells a different story. ‘THE APPLICANTS FOR DISTRICT COMMISSIONER- Sn1rs.—The latest applicants to file papers with the President for the position of District Commissioners are Major H. A. Hall and Jno.H. Rice, of this city. The delegation in favor of Major H. A. Hall which has been at the While House several times to urge his appointment as District Commissioner was there again to-day, but did pot see the President. WILL PROBABLY REVOKE THE APPOINTMSNT. The President will probably revoke the ap- poeintment of C. Kobir, of Indiana, recentiy commissioned as U.S. consul at Berlin. This Js owing to protests against bis selection signed by German citizens in various sections of the country which have been forwarded here. OFFICIAL VISITOR TO THB INSANE ASYLUM.

AN INTERVIEW WITH THE PRESIDENT Tals AFTERNOON—THEY ARE AGAINSS COALITIUN WITH THS MAHONEITES The delegation of Virginia republicans, heuded by Gen. W. C. Wickham arrived in the city to-day. The delegation embraces al! the members of the republican state executive committee and several others. There are among them A. A. Stitzer, Benjamin Up'oa, bn Callahan, ensen, President.

The head of Mr. O. L. Pitney, the boss ‘Treasury expediter, went off to-day. Secre- tary Windom Informed Pitney that he was dis- charged from the service; that he was nc longer wanted at the Treasury department. ‘The'Secretary ald not convey the information im the exact language employed here, but it amounted to the same thing. ‘The Secretary also took an important step In Seep 4 the expenditure of the contingent fund of the department. He issued an order, abolishing the office of custodian altogether. ‘There 1s no sonad warrant under the law for such an officer. The law directa that the chief clerk of the Treasury department shall be superintendent and cusiodian of the Treasury. Pitney has been kept in, despite this law. No appropriation for his salary has been made, but be has been alloved to gather in his $2,5v0 per annum through the annual appropriation for the pay of “janitors, superintendents, &c..” of public bulldings ‘under the Treasury department. ‘The duties which Pitney performed will now evolve upon Chief Clerk Power. [t is safe to say that “expediting” will not be reckoned among these duties, by Mr. Power, who as- sumed the duties of custodian today, in addi- ton to his regular duties as chief clerk. There will be a number of changes among the em- Ployes of the custodian’s office. Noneof them have been made yet, but they will happen from time to time as it may be found advisable The statement that certain business men had been cut off from all dealings with the Treas- ury department, in the nature of furnishing supplies, etc., ig Incorrect. Everyone has a right to bid to. furnish what Is wanted. The department cantot forbid them. It is very likely, however, that certain business men will Not deal with the Treasury, because they cannot do so under the new regime with the profit Unat formerly accrued. The Canards About Cabinet Quar- rels. THEY ARE MISCHIBVOUS INVENTIONS. So much has been printed about rumored disagreements in the Cabinet, for the purpose of influencing the public mind, that many un- informed persons are of the opinion that there must be some foundation for the stories. So far as the prosecution of the star route cases 13 concerned, all of the members of the Cabinet are agreed that no stone should b2 left un- turned to discover whether the government has been swindled or not; and if fraud3 have. been committed that their authors shall be severely punished. There 1s not a shadow of discord or difference of opinion among the President's advisers on the subject. The Pres ‘dent and his Cabinet are work'ng in com- pletest accord, and all reports to the contrary are totally false. Mr. MacVeagh seems to have been singled cut by members of the ring and their friends as @ target for maliciously untrue statements. He ig the person most dreaded by the culprits, and they lose no opportunity of striking at ‘nim The statement that he wrote a letter to a Phil adelphia editor saying that he felt the sand slipping from under his feet, (meaning that he thought he would be compelled to leave the Cabinet.) 1s utterly without foundation. No member of the Cabinet has a more certain ten- ure of Office than the Attorney General. SOCIETY NOTES.

White 13 the mourning color, and while in mourning the Chinese wear cotton goods, not silk, as at other times, Sandusky, Ohio, promises to be very gay next week, when festivities in honor of two brides will be given.

Burlingame’s Cases, THE FREE-LOVER IN COURT—HE RETRACTS PART OF BIS CRARGE. In the Police Court this afternoon were sev- eral cases Of assault and battery agatnst differ. ent parties, In which the complainant was Franklin Burlingame, the magnetic free-lover of Sherman row, on F, between ist and 21 Streets northeast.

BURLINGAME’S STORY. Mr. Burlingame was sworn, and stated that he went to the locality of F street, between 1st and 2d streets northeast, to get possession of his little par who had run away from him. ‘Witness met the boy on the street and begged him to go with and when oppo- site Mrs. Chapman’s use he was as- saulted by a mob, among them his on Fred- erick and Mr. Rogers, who wrenched his shoul-. der and released the boy; that the crowd took hold of him, among them Mra.

Avgany, N.Y., June 17.—It 1s a singular cir- cumstance that several large checks were cashed by Albany banks drawn by lobbyists and Senators who were working for eo for Senator, about the time that Mr. Bradley alleges that he was bribed by Sessions. On the day of the alleged occurrence, and within two or three days previous, it has been shown that checks to the amount of about $24,000 were cashed, some of them through unusual chan- nels, which were drawn by Barber, Edwards, Senators Wagner, Woodin and Sessions. Thus far the amount drawn by Sessions has been accounted for by the eas of the bills aid him, and most of Edwards’ drafts claim to ave been used in paying for votes on the Broadway underground ratiroad at $100 per head. Ail of the others may prove a mere coincident; but ifso, it isan unusual one. It has not been positively proved that Mr. Ses- sions paid Bradley $2,000. The stalwarts are positive that Bradley is telling the truth, and the half-breeds as positively deny it. The whole thing hangs on the oath of the two men and circumstances which surrounded it, Aside from thie, the testimony of Sessions isdamaging in the extreme to Mr, Depew’s canvass. The rela- Uon of the lobby career of Sessions and the tracing of Depew to the rooms of the chief ot the lobby in consultation has already caused a Teactive appeal from the rural districts upon members against Depew, and itis only by ex- taordinary efforts that his forces are held in Une, Three of his supporters have left him tn the last two ballots. The sudden increase of Mr. Wheeler’s vote Was a surprice to his managers, and it appears to have been engineered by Mr. Depew'striends to prevent the Wheeler men who were voting for Depew for the long term from deserting him. While Depew’s friends are rushing up Wheeler's Vote as against Conkling, the Wheeler men can hardly desert Depew in the race as against Platr. ‘That is the secret, and Mr. Wheeler 1s on his way here to look into the matter himself. Some of the members of the committee of nine ea geatece by the half-breeds have alreasy solicited propositions for a compromise from the leading stalwarts, demonstrating that the object of the committee was to deai with the Conkling men. All of these overtures have been rejected, and Mr. Conkling notifies his friends that no proposition of the kind can be made or considered until the Investigation is concluded and the bribery stories sifted. He wants the Public to know all about the ways and modes of his opponents. g ‘The railroad passes of the members, which expired on the first of June, have beea extend ed until the first of August, under the anticl- pation of a long siege. ‘The half—breeds oppose adjournment and Mr. Conkling insists that the legislature must re- matin until the investigation is conclud: The Evpress this morning in tts leading article insists that the bribing of Bradley has been essentially sustained, walle the Journa declares it to be a stalwart conspiracy, and that Sessions 1s innocent, but it says of the pros- pects that “Conkling and Platt, flading a re- election impossible tor themselves, have been exerUng all their energies to prevent the elec- on of others. Thus far they have succeeded by holding some thirty members to their fall- ing fortunes. So long as this number remain where: they are therecan be no election, and the deserters do not intend that there shall be ” The Argus holds that cases of corruption, verg- ing on a score, have been unearthed.
