APPOINTMENTS BY THE PRESIDENT Collectors of Customs and of Internal Revenue. The President to-day made the following ap- pointments: To be collectors of customs—Jeptha V. Harris, for district of Key West, Fla; Wyndham R. Mayo, for district of Norfolk and Portsmouth, Va.; Richard L. Cropley, for district of George- town, District of Columbia, ‘To be collectors of internal revenue—James F, Robinson, 7th district of Kentucky: Chas. 1. Henshaw, district of Rhode Island; John T. Me- Graw, district of West Virginia; Geo, M. Helms, 4th district of Virginia; Andrew L. Eilett, 2d district of Virginia; Samuel Klotz, 5th district of New Jersey. Mr, R. L, Cropley, who was to-day appointed collector of custonis for the district of George- town, is the eldest of the seven Cropley broth- ers of Georgetown, all of whom are well known throughout this vicinity. Mr. Cropley has been engaged for the past eight or ten years In run- ning a@brick yard above Cabin John's bridy He has lived in Georgetown all his life, and has always been a staunch democrat. He’ was well backed for the collectorship,but it is understood he had rather given up hope of getting the posi tionoflate. He stands well in the community and his appointment will doubtless meet wit general approval, eee One Hundred Per Day. THAT IS THE RATE AT WITCH CfANGES OF POSTMASTERS ARE BEING MADE. Democrats from all sections of thecountry are coming to Washington at present, drawn here mainly by interest in filling the post offices. The offices of the towns and villages seem to be giveneven more attention than those of the cities, These smaller offices are now being filled ‘atthe rate of one hundred per day, or about one appointment for every five minutes of a working day in the department, Postmast Generai Vilas is kept busy,and has a great deal of night work to do in order to keep things: oing with the rapidity deemed necessary. The li-health of the new first assistant, Mr. Hay, rendering him unable to attend to the duties of his office, has imposed a great deal of extra labor upon the Postmaster General, Asa rule the smailer post offices are filled upon the ree- ommendation of the Congressman representing the district In which the office is situated. Oc- casionally a contest,in which the Congress- man’s recommendation ts opposad, arises. For instance, in Jackson, Mississippi, it was agreed to settle a contro: of this sort by a primary election of the quulified voters of the city; the aspirant receiving the highest number of votes to be unanimously recommended. At the rate of present progress all the oflices where there are vacancies, or Where commissions have ex- pired, will soon be iille ‘o+____ Harmonizing the NewYork Democracy. JUDGE FARLEY PREDICTS A UNION OF FACTIONS, IN THE CONTEST FOR THE GOVERNORSHIP. Judge Farley, chairman of the committee which waited upon Hon. 8. 8. Cox and the President for the purpose of procuring Mr. Cox’s consent to remain in this country as the repre- sentative of the 8th New York district, in conversation with a Star reporter yesterday said: “I do not see any indications of factional disputes in the democratic party of New York in regard to the governor- ship.
