The appointment is in ever par ticular one of eminent fitness General Uansom is a man of mas terful ability, of ripe learning, a burn diplomat, and is possessed ol manners which would adorn any court on the globe. As eminently as Ins trifts and graces qualify him for the Senate, they lit him in a yet higher d- grce lor the delicate and responsible duties of diploma cy.

The mission to Mexico was raid ed, four years ago, t one of the iirst class, and since it wm so rais ed it has been regarded as the mr,-st desirable of all the foreign ap pointments. Tlie salary is .tl7,fon per year in American money in Mexican money (Mexico being on a silver basis) it is $3f,lX0. The cost of living m the City of .Mexi co is cheap om paired with that in London or Paris, where the salary of the American minister is the eame as mat m Aiexico, ana wnne the ministers to the two courts first named must live up to and often beyond their salaries, there is opportunity at the latter for a saving of a good part of the in come.
