the attention of the President because he
is known to be an unusal observer of cur

ber of the daily papers of the country, to
which, we are reliably informed, he fro
quently refers. ,The attendance of North

Amid the multitudinous duties and im
mense responsibilities of his high office, it
should not be expected that the President
cat, successfully guard against the macld-nations-
of designing politicians in all
cases, but it is especially incumbent upon
him to exercise the most watchful care, in
view of the inferences drawn from his
declarations that the policy of his admin
istration would deviate to a great extent
from that of his predecessor especially in
the matter of federal appointments. That
there has ;been no noticeable deviation in
the model of appointments to office tip to
this time is unfortunately true. The of
ficials appointed under Grant's adminis
tration have, thus far, in North Carolina
been either retained in office, or, where
any change has been made, the appoint
ment has been conferred upon the recom
mendation of officials holding commissions
dated eight years ago. In other word,thepf
ficials appointed under Gen. Grant assume
to dictate to tlie present administration
whom it shall and whom it -shall not ap
point to office, and, we regret to state,
that such assumption has as far as can be
ascertained,obtained as the general rule of
action with the appointing power. And
right here is the inconsistency of which the
Republicans of North Carolina complain.
If; it is right, as it unquestionably is, that
Federal officials shall be restrained from '
officious interference in party Conventions,
caucuses, and the like, it is equally proper
that they should not have the right to dic
tate to the President whom he shall ap
point Revenue officers, Marshals, District
Attorneys, Postmasters, Route Agents,
&c, within the respective States. It is
no argument at all to say, that a distinc
tion should be made between an elective
office and a Federal appointment. Every
Federal officer in North Carolina necessa
rily comes in contact with the people of
the State. It is with the people, after all,
that these . officers have to deal, and it
should be the pleasure of the government
to give to them such material,' consistent
with a proper-regard for official qualifica
tion, as the great body of them may de
sire. , .
j But the question may be asked, if we
desire to abripge the rights of persons
holding office utider ; the government, by
cutting them bflt from the privilege of
sio-nin petitions for office, I &c. The an-
o o r -,
swer is, by no means. Let any man sign
whatever recommendation he pleases, but
let the appointing power at Washington
give the signature so much consideration
as it gives to that of any other respecta
ble citizen, and no more. Let tlie appoint
ihg power, if it leans at all, leai to the
side of the personally disinterested citi
zen. .Let me appoinung power remem

to make; officials mutually' , interested. If
a petition for official station; is recei ved at
any of ' the Departments at Washington
from a citizen however humble, let the
capacity, integrity and puculiar fitness5 of
the apphcant be enquired into, even
though the signature of a Circuit. Judge,
Marshal, District Attorney, Postmaster
or other commissioned officer of the gov
ernment does not grace his written appli

Bourbonism to flight in 1878 wo earnestly
"believe. But the President and his Cabi
net must lend less willing ears to those
who have since 1868 been blowing each
other's horns for mntual advancement.
The motto of the! President : "Ho who
serves, his country best, serves his party
best," was accepted with delight by all
classes of people, s It bade ns look for a
brighter, a happier dawn. So far as the
President is concerned, he means it, but

ly interested, and it will be no fault of
ours if it is not thoroughly discussed in
all its bearings.
TURKEY A ND R USSIA .
AKI8TAECHI BEY, THE TURKISH MINISTER,
GIVES HIS VIEWS ON THE GENERAL
SITUATION. - ,
From The Boston Advertiser.
On Thursday' last, a gentleman from
this city had an interview in New York
with Aristarchi Bey, Minister for Tur
key to the United States, when the fol
lowing conversation took place :
His Excellency This is a very sad
war, but it is one for which we are certain
ly not to blame. For the last twenty
years Russia has endeavored by every
means in her power to force upon us a
pretext for war. We have always treated
her with the greatest consideration; we
have suffered the greatest possible indig
nities, but now that war is forced upon us
we intend to do the best we can, and tight
to the last gasp.
Q. The war has not been brought1 to
so 6peedy a termination as was expect
ed? His Excellency No. Every one here
seemed to think we should be swallowed
up ; out you see. we are still fighting, and
although we are sadly inferior to the Rus
6iane, yet perhaps one of those pieces of
luck may.occur which may help to rid ns
of this terrible state of affairs.
Q. Do you consider your new com
mander-in-chief an able officer ?
His Excellency Yes, he is a very good
soldier, but Suleiman Pasha is quite his
equal. It is a very absurd report whicli
has got abroad that Mehemet All is a
German. He came to Turkey when he
was quite an infant, and. has been brought
up and; educated in Turkey. He is as
much a Turk as I am, although his origin
is German and his f ather s name was, 1
believe, Schulz.
Q. What do yo think of the feeling
in America with regard to the war ?
His Excellency At first, when the
war broke out, every one here seemed to
sympathize with the Russians. It went,
indeed, so far, that it was expected tlie
American ladies would go in a body to
the Russian embassy and throw their dia
monds at the Minister's feet for the use
of the Czar, but now the feeling seems
pretty evenly divided. The Republicans
appear to side with Russia and the Dem
ocrats with Turkey But at the com
mencement of the war so many mistakes
were made and :bg much false news was
published in the papers that I do not won
der at the feeling being with Russia.
Everybody knew more about Turkey than
I did myself. The gentlemen of the
press used to make some dreadful blun
ders in geography, and when I pointed
out these mistakes they persisted they
were right, even down to the very pro
vince of which I was once Governor.
Q. Talking of officers ; how is Colonel
Baker appreciated t
His Excellency -From all accounts his
services are very much appreciated, es
pecially as a cavalry officer. I was asked
the other day by an American gentleman
if I did not consider that the. appoint
ment of so notorious a person as Colonel
Baker was a mistake. I told him that I
did not think it was any worse than the
recognition of Mr. Henry Ward Beecher
by the Americans.
6Q. The stoppage of the Providence
Tool Company is rather, a serious mat
ter. :
His Excellency Yes. I only heard of
it this morning, and there must be some
mistake. I communicated at once with
Affek Pasha, and the matter will be set
tled in a few days.
Q. It appears the company do not
wish to burden themselves with any fur
ther risk, and therefore decline to increase
their liabilities by carry ingon such ex
pensive works. ,
His" Excellency They h ive been pnid
for 4,000,000 rifles, I believe, and al
though the country is in anything but a
flourishinsr " condition, this matter will
doubtless be attended to at once.
Q. What do you thing of the Emper
or's t request to England icspeeting the
Egyptian troops in the Balkans ?
His Excellency I think it is no doubt
true, but I also think it is the most absurd
piece of nonsense imaginable. England
however, too sensible not to see through
uch a very thin veil. Nb doubt it was
bought that i?ussia was inaking a great
$ncessionwhen she informed Lord Derby
that she would not carry, the war into
gypt. Why the thing was absurd, sir J
ow was she eroin-z to eet there f one
as no fleet, and as to her coming from
sia Minor, I think whatefyer might have
eeo her chances from that direction, they
sc no longer, ii,ven supposing jvars
fallen and the Russians were masters
that part of Asia Jhior, the distance
ftween Erzeronm and the Egyptian
ntier does not mean one day's marclj
or two; it is a very considerable distance,
and hot even practical in I a fortnight or
uuu men in oyna, or even nan mat num
ber, thej then might say to England, with
some sort of basis, .we dp not intend to
cross the Egyptian frontier. But they
have no army there ; they have no troops
with which they can possibly reach Egypt,
or means cif getting them! there. What,
then, is thp use of this erbpty concession,
followed n the absurd intimation respect
ing Egypjian troops od the Balkans?
Besides, if Egyptian trOops are there,
they have Mlled some ofHhese troops as'
well as tjie Turkish ones. And they
treat theaj in the same way as they would
any othejs to whom they may be 'op
posed. :
Q. HoAv do you account for General
Gourkhak rapid advance! and passage of
the Balkans? ;
His Excellency That was no doubt
effected through the agdncy of the Bal
garian insurgents-Huacs they are called
-who liave taken refuge j in .the Balkans
for som0 time past, and -ought long ago to
have been summarily dalt with. But
for the weakness of our' forces, General
Gourklia would have been cut to pieces
before the Shipka was taken. N
Q. AThat is your opinion about the ac
tion at Plevna ? j " .
His, Excellency We Jhave gained a
great victory ; and that against a superior
force. The Russians acknowledged to
160 guns, just three to fone of what we
had. It may do good: lam no enthusi
ast, nor do I wish to boalt; I only hope;
and I know what little material we have
is
good.
I think the bhttlo of Plevna
will delav matters, and I also think the
Russians will lose a grea;t many men by
disease. But they are three and four to
one. All we can do is j strnerele to the
end.
Q. Do you not hope far assistance from
England ? ' '
His Excellencv Ii is hard to say. If
England would land 60,000 troops in
Bulgaria, which she cari do, the whole
thing would be settled at once. Russia
would not dare to ero on. Prince Bis-
marck's policy is unf athokiable, and as to
Austria, we do not kno what t6 think.
One thing is certain: As matters now
stand, the Russians caninot boast of any
material advantages. It is true they have
taken Nicopolis, and we have been beaten
nnpfl or twice: but we I have also done
something, and my information about
Plevna and Jeni Zagra ip official and cor
rect, r
O If England were to send a force to
j- j
Gallipoli, do you think Ithis wo aid be a
sufficient excuse for Russia to occupy Con
stantinoDle ?
His Excellency England will not send
troops to Gallipoli, for that woidd be
Thev mierht ai well be sent to
Constantinople ; besidei, such a move
ment would not be permitted by the other
powers. At present ouf: only chance is
to strive on, in the hope that one of those
chances may occur whicfi often decides a
war in favor of the weaker party. There
is nn thin sr in our favdr, and that is we
are far better artillerisfs than the Rns
sians. I .
O Hiive vou information relative to
these atrocities that ar so much talked
of? .1
His Excellency My Bear sir, you know
what war is ; you also know what a Cos
sack is. Fknow there have been feerful
deeds committed3n both sides. How can
it be helped ? War isf war. Bashi Ba-
zonks and Cossacks are JJastu-lSazouks
and Cossacks. What can you expect?
Of one thin"- vou Imayl be sure, the war
will not bo over to-day ,J or to-morrow, or
months hence. It wdLbe a very long and
a very dreadful one.
Such were the genjeral views ofthe
Turkish "Minister a ipan in no way bi
goted or apt to take a pne-sided view, for
Ilis Excellency is a vej-y bright specimen
of the modern Turk, a refined gentleman,
with broad views of this own country,
knowing full well its faults and esteeming I
its redeeming qualities. He is no en
thusiast, and even in this, the moment of
victory, is little inclined to boast. Evi
dently, he is fearful fpr his country ; but
he is also hopeful. He does not despair
of foreign intervention, and he fully es
timates the vast superiority of the Rus-
sians. At the same time he does not con-

them with cannon-shots, then completed
their work of extermination in massacreing
all the men and women they could find in
every suburb or village occupied by Rus
sian troops. The dwellings of tho Mus
sulmans were given -up to the flames.
The Bulgarians, excited by the example
of the Russians, commit against the peace

acts, of barbarity and outrages still more
atrocious and more horrible than those
perpetrated by the invaders.
"It is necessary that the civilized world
should be acquainted with these horrors,
to express its indignation and to brand

THE POSTAL CONVENTION AT OLD
POINT.
The assemblage at Old Point Comfort,
Va., (in sight of the Ocean,) on the 25th
and 26th of July, was composed of some
of the best and most successful and intel
ligent business men in the Southern
States. Business and business prospects,
and how to improve the condition of the
people of the South, was the theme in
Convention, out of Convention, at the
dinner table, in the sleeping rooms, on the
steamboats, and everywhere. It is the
first time in our life that we were not an
noyed at a public gathering by the ever
lasting song of the politician and dema-
gogue about elections, omee and party.
If there were any partizan politicians
present they either changedtherr tuneor
sang
low.
There were about 300 accredited dele
gates at the Convention from the States
of Virginia, North Carolina, South Caro
lina, Georgia, Alabama, r lorida, Tennes-
see, Mississippi and Louisiana, consisting
of farmers, merchants, railroad
men, and a few editprs, lawyers and doc
tors. The Convention was presided over
V.J Al.A M4VlVUUbUj 1UU1VUU I
by Mr. Bussey of New Orleans, and the
Secretaries were Mr. John Ott of Rich
mond j, Va., and J. C.""L. Harris of Ral-
dsn, jn . J. J30.E. hakeis aid tne reading
of resolutions, reports, &c, and he did it
well and creditably to himself and State.
Mr. Ott, the principal Secretary, was
prompt and accommodating, and will make
up for publication in pamphlet from the
proceedings.
The time of the Convention was not
occupied with useless speech-making the
only regular speeches made were by Hon.
Mr. Hubbard, Chairman of the U. S.
Postal Commission, and by Gen. R. H.
Anderson of Richmond, Chairman of the
Business Committee. The resolutions!
and memorial of the business Committee,
whicli were adopted, by the Convention,
will be found in another column.
As to the material benefits to be de,
rived from the. meeting of the Convention
we nave serious aouots. neao not wuuk
thrniich Railroad routes between the
North and South will be of much ad van
tage to the great mass of Southern peo-
ple in fact ihe delivery of mails at Kail-
road cities ami towns in the South is quick
enough jat present hut if increased fa
cilities can be secured in the way of what
is known as "cross mail routes or horse-
mails" (called the "star-service") which
the Convention recommended, much good
will be accomplished. ;A fast-through-
Railroad-mail will -not remedy the incon
veniences or bouthern people, but the es
tablishment of more cross-mau-routes,
more country Post Offices, fcc, will af
ford them the accommodation they want
and are lustlv . entitled to. What we
want in North Carolina, and especially in
this section, is more one-horse mail routes
and more country Post Offices, with intel
ligent Postmasters, who are willing to at
tend to the business and render a strict ac
count of their transactions. Several
changes are badly needed in the offices of
Postmasters and Koute Asrents in this
State. : ...
Ii was highly instructive and pleasant
to Hear the business men gathered at Old
Point, in private conversation, tal k about
Railroads matters mailmatters &c, and
it ai wonderful what a vast amout of use
