AMBASSADORS.
THE FIRST ArrOINTMtNTS-TIli; SCALE OF
DIPLOMATIC SALARIES. ANERI! AN
AND ENGLISH.
London, March SB.
The fads and dates niven in :t fort?er k*tter
?kow that the supposed rac*, if one mav uso
Mich a xvord, for pri'iritv in the appointment ol
ambassadors Ix'tsveon Franco a til England, did Bot
occur. Tl,,*, action of EnglBBd woi ll Bdvanta*
?if tl,** French Foteign OfBoe, and it is perainii'le
to think lt will that England (shoul.l in such a
casir 00 first. "It xvas ilouhtl.*., :, chan,c." ob?
serves "Thc Times,'' "bal to Luglislimc.ml. ss.
believe, to most Americans, it must reeni a li.ippv
chance that svo anticipated the octioo "I o;u
neighbors." Then "Th*' Timi's' add-*:
" AmrriCii as a Stat*' osscs much to Prance, but
the bonds svhich link her to tins countiv Bte
"stronger arid more enduring than any which Boliti
ral acrviccs, hoxvever v.ilu.ililo. can knit. Wo
ciitici.se each oilier ssith Uk* freedom of neat- r.-la
tixva in a xvay winch iib times must, give 0,11
diplomatic representatives plenty of employment,
but we can never forget that, after nil. svo an
related a.s no other ne-oodea are upon Usn globe.
and sse can never a*B*itC come lo consider each
other as foreigners."
That is in thr thoroughly fiiendlv spirit whick
permanently undeilios tho whole current of English
thettpht :in,l opinion and fceliog :,l,out English
relationa. xvith A UKI Ita
The Ntrw-Yorh teJeojraaa lo " T'oo StandartT
mentions a rumor tlmt Sir .lillian Pootaeefote has
"stimulated" the Knglish l'oroi-.n Office, ssith a
view tn scrurinp the coveted pu.-t of " doyen" of
the Diplomatic Bodf*. There is no foondotiOR fm
*?nt rumor, svhich does injustice but I, to Sir
.lillian and to the Foreign Minister. The latter
acted on his osvn initiative, and at tin* earliest
possible moment NoTTiulv who knosvs I,,id Rose
lior.v or his rureer needs to 1).* told that tbe sjjuiit
svhich actuated hun svas one ol nu, eic pood xx-111
to America. Ile sasv an opportunity to shosv it,
an oppottunity to emphasize the real friendship
existing l>etsvecn the tsvo nation*, and he seiz,-1
it. That is the secret of his being tirst.
We may count it another piece of *-e*ad fortune
that Sir .lillian Paunoefote should ii,- the lirst
British Ambassador to the United States Me
neetls no OOlogJf from this side upon his great
abilities, or on his quality as a diplomatist, or on
hi* unswerving friendship to America All these
things are knoxvn in Washington, and I hope
much more xvidelv than In Washington. They are
of good omen for the continuance or good rela?
tions betxveen Washington and London. Iietsveon
England and tho I'mt*-*! Stales. Tlie diplomatist,
and perhaps others, xviii Isp interested in heni.ing
that thc ness- ambassador is not accredited tu the
President. His Bledtoltol* are addressed to "Out
Rood Iriends the Tinted States of America."
Tt is provided by tho act anthorizinir tho ap
pointment of ambassadors that they shall have uo
increase of salary. At the end of another twenty
years or so, WO may lie able to convince oiirse'.svs
of the impolicy of starving the diplomatic, service
Logically, the increas" of rank xvouVI involve ,m
inrrease of pay, but there is nut murh pl:,rr for
lc-eic in politics, and politics have much to ,1" xx,th
matters xviiich, in their nature and on their merits,
are outside politics. So let us. BB before, take ;i
practical viesv of the question, ami once moir hare
recourse to the greatest practical authority,
Prince Bismarck: and then seo hosv our Knglish
friends treat their diplomatic agents.
In the speech from svhich I hav*' already Booted,
delivered Nnx* lt;, ISTI, in the Reic.list:i'_r, and to
he found in thc collected Discourses of 1'iince lti-s
marck. he had a point to cany. It. xvas his xvav
to carry one thing at a time He xvantrd the
rank conferred, and to get the rank ssas svillinp.
as Senator Hoar and his friends xvere xvilling. to
xvaive for thc time the question of raising the pav.
lie said " An ambassador does not deserve a I
higher salary by reason of his title.-' lie deserves
it on other irotinds. or it is on other grounds thal
it is expedient to pix-e it to lum. The Prince go?s
on to say that if you like to be shabby sou need
not alloxv more than from 1.000 tn 3.ooo thaler*
ex(ru for ambassadorial rank. The extra l* for
entertaining sox-ereigns or for other <zre;,t cere?
monies. This proceeds on the theory that his pay
as Minister Plenipotentiary has boon ample, and
thc sum svhich, in Prince Rsmarck's opinion,
might suffice for a Minister is from Mo.ooo to 4<\
ooo thalers a year: say from *ytt,Boo to *?30.0f>o.
The smaller ot thesf. two sums much e\coels
the largest salary paid to any American Minister
Uenipotrntiary. Ihe Ministers to Great I'ritnm
and to Franre recrise each 8l7,.*i00 a year. To
the intelligent representative of Nebraska or
Arkansas this seems, no doubt, ample. One hears
of the opinion prevalent in those remoter pssts of
the ("reat Republic. Such a salary i< there r?.
Barded as wealth beyond the dreams of avarice.
It is believed that an American Minister to thc
Court of St. .Tames or to Paris lives in either
capital in luxurx' and splendor .luring (oar vrars,
and retires xvith s;iviiigs which mike a comfortable
provision for his old age. Hence the competition
for these diplomatic posts.
Far othersvise are the fact*. The fact* are that
no American Minister in either capital, does live,
or can lis'e, on hi* salary. Ho may co-no to
Europe with the most Jeffersonian notions of re?
publican simplicity and fr'i.'i!ity. Hi lads on
his arnx'al I certain scale of living in the xvor-'d
among which he is thrown, and among hi* r,,!
leaguo*. in the diplomatic servre. He has to de?
cide xvhether he xviii conform to tbe star, lard of
the society ia which ho is tr. spend four years, or
whether he will sink belosv it If he dor* the
latter he renounce* his social position. ac ?(???!? a
position of inferiority with respect to bl* cot
league* and to society in general, debars hlXfelt
from most of the advantage* and opportunities
svhich his diplomatic, rank confers, f"n*ef*oe* mar.y
of the best occasions of diplomatic BMfBloeaB, and,
in the opinion of the people of it.e country to
which hg is accroKllted, sacrifices the dignity of
his own country.
If. on the ether hand, he resolve* |o do hi< full
duty to his government and hi* cVintrv. to pat
3iiu>r-"lf on a level, socially speaking, ssith his
fellow-Ministers-1 don't say Ati>bai>*adors-and ti
lake the place he ought to take as the repro
nntatix-e of the Vnltcd States, he must pit In,
hand in hi* own pocket. He must be prepared to
t*l>end the whole of his salary and about as much
more out of his private m*-ans. He mas sp, ml
a little more or a little bs*, according to his
means and his tastes and his ht.spi?ality. lt will
bc a. little less if he is content, to accept Itospittili
ties and never to return them. Bat, to put i*
plainly in figures, no Amencm Mmi-ster in Lon
don, who ha* cared to be a Minister other than in
name, har* managed to lix-c on nvioh b-ss than
"$''0,000 a year. Som*- of them ha\'e sp.,, * ,,i
stderably more than that- Aid it may ?? -i '"ii
a* certain that if, on a salary of $1 ;,?,?<) you
spend $30,000, it is not from sour savings of
salary that a, comfortable provision for old age
can Ik* expected
These aro the facts. Whether the \|.w of com?
mon-sense based on then xxiii prevail in Ne?
braska and Arkansas, or hosv hoon it ss i'd pre?
vail, either then or in Washmcton ;.tso|i. ft would

and Stripe*. They may hold it a ataxia* that
America ha* nothing; to learn from Lump*-: that
u Republic a little more than a hundred year*
old ha* exhausted the nourn** of ancient und
modern knoxvledge, and that its present nilrrs
and legislators are the embodiment and h*-towna
tion of all political and sonni truths and prac?
tices. If that he tho opinion of Nebraska and
Arkansas, it netti not be disputed, but I
will, nevertheless, give the figures of some diplo?
matic s.ilnri"s paid by Great Britain, ami the
reader will decide tor himself whether they
ooght to be eona*-4*red examples or warning*
