tion. Colonel Ticbenor has been connected with tha customs service since 1878. He spoke of Mr. Windom with great feeling, as follows: “Since Mr. Windom has been Secretary this last time I have been dreadful of this very catastrophe as a result of* tbe trouble, tax and vast overwork that fall on a conscientious man in attempting to administer that great and over-loaded department. The Treasury Department combines so much and snch a variety of important and unrelated business as to make it impossible for any one head to administer it, and any attempt to do so in a conscientious way, as 1 have said, must result in destroying that man, no matter how strong his mental and physical vigor.

Mr. VTiaaom's Passible Bacceeeor. [Washington special Ciactnnail Enquirer. 1 The office of Secretary of tiie Treasury is one of the most important in the Cabinet. In a practical sense it is possibly the must important It is of such great consequence that not even the very high regard in which Mr. Windom was held by all who knew him restrains speculation •» to his successor even at this early honr after his death. The name of John J. Ingalls has doubtless been momeuterily onr tbe tongae of thousands of men in this connection, but he is oot of the question. He goes out of the Senate on the 4th of March, and would, no donbt, be n strong probability bad be been in line with the President during the present Congress, but ha has not He has spoken rad voted for free -ninage of silver, and placed himself in the company of those opposed to closbre and the force bill.

Spooner, of Wisconsin, who to also in tbe list of retiring United States Senators, is ou terms of great amiability with the administration. Ha is looked upon as one of the most iutiasate triends the President has in public life. Senator Sterart ones said that Spooner and Powell laat named at the bead of the ••may) were the only friends tit •earned to have or want. Thera would be hardly a donbt that Spooner would be chosen were it not for the fact that Wisconsin already has a Cabinet officer. Mr. Spooner ia a asan small ia stature and Toathful ia appearance.
