The New Foreign Ministers.
--The Federal Administration, as announced, has also made its selection of Ministers for the important
European Courts.
Hon. Charles Francis Adams, a member of the last Congress from
Massachusetts, and a son of
John Quincy Adams, is nominated for
England.
Hon. Wm. L. Dayton, of
New Jersey, is nominated for the
French Mission.
Mr. Dayton served a term in the United States Senate, and was a candidate for
Vice President on the Fremont ticket in 1856.
Hon. George P. Marsh, of
Vermont, gets the
Sardinian Mission, which was so strongly demanded by
Carl Schurz.
Mr. Marsh served one term in the House of Representatives, and was appointed Resident Minister to
Turkey by

He is more eminent as a scholar and author than as a politician.
Gen. Watson Webb, editor of the New York Courier, has been nominated Minister to the
Turkish Porte.
