Revenue C A very absurd and ignorant sent forth by the evening paper here, to the effect that General Pleasanton has been invited by Prest- dent Graut to accept the position of Internal Revenue Commissioner as successor to Commissioner Delano, ‘The reason that it assigns refutes ttsel!, namely— that New York has no representative in the, Cabinet and that, therefore, 1) ought to be given at least an otiice only one degree less in importance, like the Internal Revenue Bureau.
