WASHINGTON, August 4.—The general im- pression to-day is that the work on the bills can be finished up to-morrow, but that final will be postponed until Mondav to enable the clerks to get the work up, bills engrossed and ready tor tue President's signature, etc., and that final adjournment will take place at noon Monday. Many members are already leaving. and there ts scarcely a quorum left in the House to-day. Probably there will not be over a bundred Representatives and fifty Senators here to adjourn Monday if delayed to that day. SOUTHERN CROPS. Reports from the South and from the grain centers East show 4 remarkable grain pro- duction in the South this year. The States which heretofore have been tmporters of breadstuffs, are now exporting quantities of fine wheat. Georgia and South Carolina, which have always beretofore bought wheat, last week shipped one hundred thousand bushels to grain dealers in New York and Baltimore. In Baltimore last week two hundred and fifty thousand dusb- els of wheat were received from the South. The cotton crop of the South js also reported excellent, and with the prospect of cotton production abroad will be reduced by the war, it is delſeved that the financial pros- pects of the South are unusually good. THE READJUSTERS. The Virginia readjusters show that under their rule the public schools, both for white and black have heen more than doubled in number and attendance, and the taxes re- duced twenty per cent, all in two years. THE PRESIDENT. The President will go to New York next Pweek after adjournment and about the löth inst. to Long Branch, if the weather iz suf- ticiently warm to make the seaside agreeabie, which is not the case now. PROHIBITION, The National Republican, eupposed to speak the Presidential views, has a signfiicaut editoris! to-day, saying: Probibitory legis- lation regarding the distillation and sale of liquors is destined soon to be an issue which must be squarely met by the two great par- ties. It says Congress will soon be forced to take decisive action, giving committees the right to control the matter. It quotes the success I INFALLIBLE — Least Powder ow CHEAPEST | THE ORIGINAL!

The visit of Barrios it is said resulted in the demand for the resignation of Montufar, Minister of Guatemala to the United States.

National Board of Health. Special to the Post-Dispatcn, WaSHINGTON, D. C., August 4.—A very vigorous discussion arose inthe House to- day over the section ofthe sundry civil bil! relating to the continuation of the National Board of Health, bringing out, incidentally, the faci that great danger exists of a yellow tever epidemic again this season. The discussion grew out of the Senate amendment to the bill whick appro- priates $75,0'0 to be expended by the National Board of Health to prevent the spread of yellow fever. Butterworth took the ground that the Marine Hospital Service was umply able to do this work, and the keep- ing up of ‘the National Health Board and al) its machinery was an unneces- rary expense. The Southern members fought for keeping tne Nationa! Health Board, holding that the Marine Hoepitaiservice was insufficient. During the debate it was stated that there was a yellow fever epidemic just across the border in Mexico, and that there bas been one case in New Orleana and one or more in - Brownsville, Texas. Mr. Cox, of New York, took grounds with Mr. Butterworth, holding that the National Health Board was uanecessary and a simpie attempt to add anew burden on the Treas- ury. The Star Route Trial. WASHINGTON, August 4.— In the Star Route trial Harvey M. Vaile, one of the defendants, was placed on the stand. He said he lived in St. Louis; his principal business was farm- ing, Dut he had also engaged in the business of mail contracting. He had transac- tions § with Miner. 8. W. Dorsey and John W. Dorsey. He bad never directly or indirectiy paid Gen. Brady for doing any of the things charged against nim in the indictment. He had never paid any public officer for doing such a thine. The proceeds in the routes in the indian Ter- ritory were to be divided as tollows: Vaile, one-third; Miner, one-sixth; Peck, one- sixth, and J Dorsey, one- third. In the other States and Territories | Vaile and Miner were to receive each one- third, and Peck and J. W. Dorsey one-third petween them. This partnership continued up to April, 79. The business, however, was a losing one. The cross-examination deyel- oped nothing of particular interest, Bridges Over the Ohio. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WaSHINGTON, D. C., August 4. — Mr, Townsend, of Ohio, who secured the passage in the House yesterday of the bill regulating the building of bridges over the Ohio River, esye be thinks the Dill u likety to pass the Senate yet this session. The Committee on Commerce of that body agreed to take it up immediately and act on it, and probably will report it favorably to the Senate to-day or to-morrow, when friends of the bill hope it will be passed withoue de- lay.

Merrick Jackson went to a festival held near King’s Ferry, arming himself with a club, made of green wood, about two and a half feet long and about two inches in diameter, filled with lead at the butt end. On arrival at the festival he there caused a row and the testimony of several witnesses Drought forth the following facts: That George Ferguson and John Thomas, two negroes from the State of Georgia, were sitting on the piazza of the house where the festivities were being held, talking to a negro woman, when Merrick Jackson came from the inside of the house asking for —— Fer- guson. As soon as Jackson saw Ferguson and Thomas on the oe he knocked them both in the head with his club, the blow knocking them offthe piazza to the ground.

The execution took place in the south weat corner of the nigh-walled jail-yard, and was nominally private, although a large number of tick sts of admission had been given out by Sheriff Bowden. Carter and Adams, at the time of the murder, were employed at Dowliug’s mill, six miles from Baldwin. They had got drunk in the village, and, in company with others, started for the mill on foot in the night time. Both were powerful specimens of physical manhood, and both were of a quarrelsome disposition.

The news of the appointment of Mr. C. M. Whitney as surveyor of the Port of St. Louis, published in yesterday’s Post- DISPATCH, | created much surprise and cémment. The opinions were all favorable to Mr. Whitney, but in many quarters, it Was thought that he would be the last man named. Either Judge Long or Mr. Cavender had been pretty generally picked out as St. Gem’s successor. Mr. Whitney was born on a farm at Wayland, Mass., October 23, 1833, and is consequentiy in his forty-ninth year. His early days were spent on the farm, his summers devoted to labor and his winters to study and school. Hav- ing by diot of hard labor secured a sum of money, he entered Chester Acade- my, at Chester, Vt., eking out his expenses by teaching school in winter. In 1857 he en- tered Central College, New York, to com plete his academic studies. In 1829 he was graduated from the Albany Law School and admitted to the bar, beginning the practice of the legal profession at Troy, N. X. A year later he married Miss Laura A. Msx- ficid, whom be met while attending sebool at Chester. in 1867 he removed to St, Louis with his famiiy, and has resided bere ever since, actually engaged in the practice of law. In 1874 be formed a business partnership with Seneca N. Taylor, which expired in 1876. Then Mr, Whitney and Horatio D. Wood formed a ‘partnership, which lasted until 1878. Early in 1879 Mr. Whitney, who was then a member of tue or- der for Mutual Protection, in consultation with thirty-five other gentlemen, conceived the idea of forming the local Legion of Hon- or. It was he that suggested the name, bas- ing the organization on the one of that name in France and adding the social feature which has made the St. Louis Legion 80 great n success. Mr. Whitney was at the headof the first council organzed: in this citv and hasbeen 4 member of the Executive Baord ever since the inception of the organization. In January, 1881,he was firste lected SupremeChancellor of the Legion and at the beginning of the pres- ent year he was unanimously chosen 4s his own successor for another term. He has always been a Republican, and has been known as 4 Stalwart, but has never re- ceived an appointment under the Govern- ment service before. His friends have been urging him to allow his name to go before the Republican convention this fall for the nomination for Circuit Judge. He would probably have done so but for his appointment to the position to which Presi- dent Arthur yesterday nominated bim. WHAT WHITNEY SAYS. In an interview Mr. Whitney said that the news of the appointment was not exactly a surprise to him. He stated that Judge Krum, E. W. Patterson and Newton Crane had shown a nearty interest in his success, and had been instrumental in securing a petition for his appointment sigued by 1,300 of the most promivent mer- chan s and business men of the city. Besides, he said, the Republicans of Southeast Mis- souri had signed a petition in his behalf and that his friends generally had been very kind tohim. Mr. Whitney said that the bond re- quired was $150,000 and that he would take possession of his office in about a mont u. The general opinion is that Mr. Whitney’s biching came principally from the business men of the city, and that be owes his appoint- ment largely to his prominence in the Legion of Hi nor, which has a large membership in all influential circles in St. Louis. WHITNEY’S PATRONAGE. The outgoing Collector was seated in his vr vate office at noon to-day when a Post- DISPATCH. reporter called. He expressed some surprise at the appointment of Mr. Whitney, and could only attribute it to the character and influence of the men who had become acquainted with Whitney since the local order, the Legion of Honor, of which he is Chancellor, obtained prominence in business and professional circles. Mr. St. Gem bad not abandoned the hope of reap- pointment, and he had the moet favorable as- surances from bigh sources in d -hington that reappointment was a matter of favorable con- sideration by the President. fis claims fora second term were supported by Senators Logan, Pium», Ingalls, Brown and others. His petition was supported by the signa- tures of all the importers here doing business with the office. His official record was clear and he had every reason to believe that his claim for reappointment would not be disregarded. Mr. St. Gem gave his personal attention daily to the affairs of the office, and every document issuing there - from bore his own signature. Whenthe St. Louis Coliector’s term was about to expire it is said that the magnates of the department at Washington consulted with leading Republicans as to the choice of a sue- cessor, and the name of Newton Crane, the law partner ok E. W. Pattison, at one time Consul at Manchester, and an ex-journalist of this city, was mentioned for the place. Mr. Crane heard of it and declined to be put forwara. Having considerable influence at Washing- ton, he was asked to recommend 4 name, and Pattison, his partner, who has an eye on one of the nominations for Circuit Judge, suggested that another Republican candidate, C.

One of the Pioneers Tells the Story of the Find. Mr. Gilmour, of Litechtield, III., one of the pioneers in the oll find at that place, Was on the floor of the Exchange to-day, and 3 Post-DISPATCH reporter promptly button- holed him and demanded information as to the reported richness of the oil weils at Litchfield. ‘“‘Tne halt,’ said be, “has not been told of the richness of that oil find. Why, everybody about Litch@ld is making money. The times never were so flush tnere, and there is every prospect that the boom will continue.“ How was the oil found?” “By accident. When the State law went into effect commanding that coal mines should siok a supplementary air shaft, the owners of the Litchfield mine dug one. Having the shaft opened, they made up their minds to sink deeper and see if % better vein of coal could not be struck, The shaft had not been gone very far down when it was flooded with gas to such an extent that the men could not work in the mines. Fora time the shaft was abandoned, bul new machinery was put in and the hole cleared out 600 feet down, when oil was struck.“ „What is the character of the oil!“ „Ibis very viscid, about the consistency of molasses, and quite black. It smeiis like coal ol and tastes like pitch pine. You know it is not an il/umiuating oi! ?’’ „No, I did not know that.” “Ob, no, a careful analysis bas displayed the fact that its illuminating capacity is very small, and no amount of rendering is apt to do very much good in that way.“ “Then what good is it?” „Oh, it's the best lubricator known; it will drive every other lubricator out of the market; the cost of production is almost nil, and the intrinsic value of the oil is bound to place it beyond competition.” And the gas? “fhe whole machinery of the pumping works is driven by the gas. At night the Wasting gas is lit and the flame streiches up twenty-five feet into the air in a great blazing columa, swaying about inthe wind from the top of the stand-pipe. It is a most gorgeous sight. The use of the gas for fuel, of course, reduces the cost of production still further. Oh, we’ve got a big thing, and we’re getting the ma- chinery from the East as fast as we can to open up the full capacities of the supply.”? THE ELEVATOR IMBROGLIO. A Speck of War Between Capt. Slat- iery and One of the Directors. The elevator war is not yet over. Every day it breaks out in an unexpected spot. To- day one of the pooled elevator directors waiked up to Capt. Slattery on the floor of the Exchange and held out his hand witha remark upon the pleasantness of the weather. Slattery replied: *‘I don’t know you, sir.” The other geutleman stared at him, and asked him what was tne matter, still holding out his hand. The matter is this,” he said, “tbat vou were one of the men con- cerned in the attempted assassination of my character while J was 4,000 miles away, and I don’t propose to take your band now!“ Ags he spoke with considerable bitterness quite a crowd gathered around, expecting « scene. Neither gentleman, however, said anything further, and the direc- tor walked away. Capt. Slattery is going East in a few days, leaving probably on Monday evening, to rejoin his wife. He will returnin a couple of weeks and go to work in earnest in building the double ele- vators which he proposes to erect. It is un- derstood that the sites are already secured, and propositions to take stock are pouring in upon the poputar ex-secretary. Just now he is reapipgacrop of letters from country Crain-sbippers offering him congratulations and pledging him business. A _ notification of the organization of the new elevator com- pany will be published in a few days. Guarding Against Yellow Jack. Surgeon General-Hamilton, of the U. 8. Marine Hospital Service, Washington, D. C., has made arrangements for the inspection of all vessels leaving New Orleans for up-river. The arrangement has been made with the co- operation of Dr. Jones,President of the Board of Health of the State of Louisiana. All up-river vessels that desire health in- spection can now have it done without cost at New Orieans under Government auspices, and certificates of the sanitary status of the passengers can also be obtained in the same way. All that is necessary is that the master of the vessel should make application to John Godfrey, of the Marine Hospital Service, at bis oflice in the New Orleans Custom-house. The information will be valuable to mer- chants, steamboatmen and travelers and the public generally, in view of the possible prev- alence of Yellow Fever. Cady’s Court. The docket in Judge Cady’s court to-day was pretty much given over to assault and batteries, eight or ten being disposed of.

They are caref@ly editec and full of well digested and inter tng bits of Information, 8 * 1 . —— — — 5 ase er 7 ' — — ä The Question Growing in Interest on Change. — — — — Some of the Plans Proposed to Effect a Reform, Commission merchants and receivers of grain generally do not appearto have much confidence that the present effort being made to stop orat least reduce thelossin weight at thie end in grain shipped here wil) result in anything tothe advantage ofthe country shippers and this market. It is claimed by some that the committee who have the shap- ing of the plan whereby such good results are to ensue, are not going at the matter in the right way, as they are not beginning at the right end. “They start in,“ said a leading member, “either with the idea that the fault lies with the country sbippers entirely or that the grain is stolen from the cars while they are on the track here and be- fore the grain gets into the elevator. Now that the country dealer can be continually making mistakes can hardly be believec, and yet there is hardly a car of grain arrives here thata complaint of shortage in its weight is not heard. It seems very strange, to say the least, too, that the country shipper onty makes these mistakes on grain shipped to St. Louis. Why is it he doesn't make a mistake occasionally in the grain sent to Chicago and Toledo? The idea that was evolved by one member of the committee to send men through the country to inspect the weighing scales and see that they were correct wai really a brilliant scintillation of genius. though I think he could have improved upo» this idea of his if he bad recommended thats man be established at each station from which grain is shipped to St. Louis, w bose duty it sbould he to stand guard night and day over the grain scales and thus prevent any tampering with them. This would have been a rather more costly way of keeping the country ship- per straight, but much better than having baifadozen men skipping around from éta- tion to station playing the roles of spotters upon the grangers. The other idea of em- ploying detectives to watch the St. Louis yards to prevent outside stealing is, perhaps, pretty good, though costly, and then these detectives could ouly watch the grain while it was on the track andthey would be of no use to their employers, the grain receivers, after the car was unloaded. No, sir; there is only one way in which this short-weight in grain can be stopped and that is to have a State law of registration and a Board of Warehouse Commissioners that can have entire contro! of the elevators. Registration by the Merchants’ Exchange won’t register, that its it won't work, and the whole thing must be putin the bands of the State.” Said another member: The committee has sat down on ihe only two measures that would have given the grain shippers and re- ceivers relief. The first was having a track scale at which the grain could be weighed by anemplove of the Exchange before it goes into the elevator. The second was registra- tion of warehouse receipts. Did you notice how quickly elevator men shut down on reg- istration?” This shori-weight question is really stirring the Exchange to its depths and is exciting more and more interest. Complaints fron country shippers are still pouring in and age becoming so clamorous that the St. Louis commission merchants see that they must do something or lose nl! their busraiess. Some of the receivers are coming out boldiy and taiking ina manner that sounds ratber strange. Others seem to be as much afraid to express themselves as ever. Itis openly stated that in no other market than St. Louis do they receive such complaints of short weights. It is proposed that the experiment be tried of buying a cer- tain number of cars of grain in Kansas City. An equal number of these cars are then to be sent to Chicago, Toledo, New York, Balti- more and St. Louis. weighed into elevators at these points and the weights then com- pared with the original weights. It is assert- ed that the books of certain sbippers in these markets will show that in Baltimore the shortage runs one bushel to the car, in Chicago about half 1 bushel, and in St. Louis the shortace will average fully four bushels to the car. Mr. J. D. Houseman, one of the commis- sion merchants on the committee on sbort weights, says that he has been misrepresent- ed right along by the morning papers, and that the position he has taken is not under- stood at all bythe public at large. In conver- gation with a POsT-DISPaTCH reporter, Mr. Houseman stated that bis plan to send men out into the country Was not so much to inspect the scaies—he didn’t want tuose men to go prying around, looking into and under the scales to see if they were correct. What he wanted was to employ men of intelligence, who would cali upon the country shipper from whom these complaints come,have atalk with the shippers, see by observation if they were men ofordinary intelligence, then ex- amine their scales and their manner of weighing. If possible weigh a car load of grain themselves, and post the committee as to the number of the car andthe amount of grain in it, and the committee could tell by comparison whether the car held out in weight here. What the commitiee wanted Was something to work on. Now they really had nothing. If through the men they sent out they should find the party making the complaint was an intelligent and honest man: that the grain had been weighed in a proper manner and shipped, allrignt. Thenif the car, upon arrival here, was found excessively short in weight, the committee would know where to look for the difference. He also stated that all the commission men whom be asked in regard to this matter were with him, and he had all the offers of assist- ance in the shape of money and personal wid that he wanted. But the sub-committee nad sat down upon his scheme, as they had upon registration, when he proposed tne lat- ter in yesterday’s meeting. A commission house in this market has proposed as plan to country shippers that ap- pears to de good. They issued. a circular embodying their ideas and sent these eire u- lars to @acy Of their customers. This circu- lar reads g follows: GRAIN SHORTAGR. OFFICE OF ARCHEK & PicrerR ST, LOUIS, August 1, 182 In the matter of shortage in grain weights in this market, Which is now attracting 80 much attention, there have been no plans de- vised that seem to us practicable, and we on our OWD Dart make the following suggestions, Which wethink, if carefully observed and acted upon, will richly repay the trouble in- cident thereto, viz.: In company of a witness thoroughly inspect every car before loading and see that all cracks and holes are wel: stopped, covering the king bolt-holes and tigbteniog up the grain doors: know that your scales are correct and with the witness, accurately weigh your grain and load it in the car; after loading have your railroad agent attach a teal to every car door fastening, and be so careful in all détails that you can make affidavit to ali facts. Advise us promptly of shipments and we will give our personal attention on arrival, and if unreasonabie shortage occur, forward your affidavit to us and we will make claim on the railroad company tor it. We take it that what the railroads receive for shipment they must deliver; hence the greatest importance sitaches as to What they receive. To establish this devolves upon you. This seems to us the only way to stop steal- ing, and if generally acted on the railroads will begin to see that it is to their to take a hand in it, and see to it that shippers get correct wei hts at this end. Be sure you do ali on your part to prevent shortage, and then see to it that the railroads do. By a close observance of al) these sugges- tions the shortage grievance will in 4 0 adjust itseit. Respectfully submitted. ARCHER & PICKER. _ Another Queer Case. Now that some of the grain receivers are finding out there is one paper in this city that will publish facts, no matter who is hurt, they are beginning to bring forward cases that may be termed curious, if not queer. The latest case was told a POST- DISPATCH report- eron the floor this morning. Last Junea country shipper sent in two cars of corn, which he stated bad been inspected No, white-mixed by a Chicago grain inspector. After these two cars of corn had got into the elevator nere the St. Louis receivers got the elevator receipta, which ealled for ‘fone car of No. 2 White-mized“ and “fone car of No. 2 mixed.” As the No. 2 white- mixed sold at $1 02%, and tne No. 2 mixed at 76M c. the country shipper naturally kicked when be learned that one car bad missed grading No.2 white-mixed, and notified his St. Louts house to look the matter up. It was finally learned to-day that the grain in- spector's book and the elevator’s book called for No, 2 white-mixed corn in both instances, the grain inspector having graded both cars as No. 2 white-mixed. Yet the elevator is- sued areceipt for one of these care as No. 2 mixed, which grade was selling when these cars came in at 30% below the price of No. 2 white-mixed. SPORTING BRIEFS.

Lo hie 5 Cornered and St. Louis Prob- ably in the Same Fix. ; ‘The operators on Change «ot such a bad squeeze in .the late July oat deal that they are now in a constant state of apprehension that this usually mild market will commence again to wrong them, and they consequently keep ® weather eye open to see that it doesn’t get away with them again. To-day there was a pretty abarp advance, and this created considerable of a flurry among the speculators, who usually affect this retiring cereal, oats. The cry of corner“ Was heard, and points and tips were flying around in every direction, That Me- Cormick & Co. and Haines, Minor &Co. were buying was proof positive in the minds of many that another deal was working that would raise the market up to 50c again. There is no doubt but that the line for Au- ust oats in this market is heavy and most oi t centers inthe hands of the houses that worked the July option. They not alone hold most the short contracts for August and are adding to their line by steady purchases, but they are also the possessors of most the cash No. 2 oats there are in store here, besides buy- ing freely from day today. It is understood they intend shipping al! this cash, and all that is delivered to thein on August contracts to New York, where there is really a deal working. That market is said to be oversold several million bushels, which is in the hands of Franklin, Edson & Co.,a prominent grain house of New York. They bought all the August they could get at around 40 and 50c. The market is now 52c for August and 70c for cash. H. Jones is said to be largely short in New York for August oats, the parties who sold expecting a heavy break there when the July deal was settled up. But this break didn’t come. Some of the St. Louis shorts have since then got out, having received a wink and a nod, but there are others who hold on, hoping for a tura their way. Parties here who expected to il their New York shortage with the actual cash oats are liable to be dis- appointed, as it is learned that ali freight room has been engaged ahead for August by McCormick & Co., Haines, Minor & Co., and the Culver Commission Company, who are shipping 8 to the East, mainly wheat, but also oats, It is thought by some parties here that the 8t. Louis houses who are long in this market will keep the stock here very low, and late in the month spring another „corner“ on the unsuspecting shorts. St. Louls Iuspections at New Orleans. Mr. Robert McMillan, the New Orleans Grain Inspector, arrived in St. Louis last night, and will spend the next two weeks in the city studying our grain inspection. A great many changes are to be made in the New Orleans inspection in order to make it fit with our St. Louis stand- ards and methods. Mr. MeMillan will spend his time almost exclusively in the elevaters and will return to New Orleans charged with all the information that our inspectors can give him. Mr. McMillan appears to be a very thorough-going, ener- getic gentieman, and the St. Louis nish him with the information he wants. As soon asthe St. Louis grades are established for this year Mr. McMil!an will send them by express to New Orleans, where they will be adopted by the Board of Trade of the Cres- cent City. His visit has an additional inter- estas an earnest of the intimate relation which must be maintained between the two cities hereafter.

All of this 1 Will be with granite, as this is the only materia) whose durability under the traffic in our main pan” te p a material f not be well adapted for a majority — streets, as it bas few commendabie 5 outside of its durability, and is unfilted tor residence streets on account of ita noisines and objectionable for streets witb licht traffic or io districts where property e low ig value on account of its great cost, There are 315 miles of unimproved streets in St. Louis, and an approximate estimate has been made to ascertain what proportion should be paved with granite and what with other materiais. The streets subject to the heaviest traffic number fifty-eight, for which granite is the only proper paving materia. The average cost per mile cf a street of this class may be set down at $100,000. Sixty-five miles of streets require a pavement of superior quai- ity, either on account of being subject to a tolerably heavy traffic or by reason of the particular and loca demands of ‘ha residents. For such streets pavemeuts of asphaitum, preserved wood or durable stone other than granite should be used. The average cost for reconstructing a mile of street of this class may be set down at $60,000. The re- mainder of the streets, comprising about 190 miles, can be properly reconstructed with a Telford or macadam pavement, The board recommends that these streets be suffered to wear down until reconstruction becomes absolutely necessary and then to re- construct by first loosening the surface of the oid limestone macadam with picks, placiag six or elgnt inches of bard and durable macadam in the roadbed so prepared, giving it atop dressing of fine gravel or furnace siag and compacting the surface by rolling and watering. The cost would be about $24,000 per mile. The total cost of reconstructing our whole system of streets would then be as follows: 58 miles at 5100, 0% % : 2 $5,800,000 LL es 3,900,000 % miles at $24,000........ e 2322 4,560,000 tal ee ee „%%% „„ 814,280, 0e share which the city would be required f this total sum, being for reconstruc: tsin front of public buildings, parke, markets, engine houses, etc., will amount to $150,000; the amount payable under the 25 ver cent Aau- e would be about$1,770,000; in adding the cos, of special tax pavabie by the city the total ld be $1,920,000 or in round figures $20,000,000, or about $200,000 per annum, if the reconstruction of all our streets is to be completed within a period of ten years. To appropriate for this object $200,000 annually appears to be fully as much as the resources of the city will permit. It is therefore plain that if a general reconstruction of our streets, within a reasonable time, is to be had, the charter must not be amended so a8 to increase the city’s share of the cost. Concerning the sixty-five miles of streets which are not sub- ject to the heaviest traffic, the board believes that, owing to the great variety of available material for pavements of this class, it will not be dificult to carry out the reconstruction of these streets during the same period that the granite re- construction is in progress. Ag to the remaine ing 190 miles of streets, the quantity of ma- terial required being comparatively small and the capacity of providing it almost un- limited, the reconstruction should be car- ried on at the rate of twenty miles per annum, and thus at the expiration of a decade the reconstruction of all our streets would therefore be accom- plished. pre Grain Grades. Ata meeting of the Board of Directors of the Merchants’ Exchange to-day the com- mittee on grain grades reported the samples of all the grades furnished do not naturally differ from last year’s, They are somewhat higher. however and several brokers express a great deal of dissatisfaction with the samples. It was or- dered that the samples be exhibited on the flour till Tbesday next, when the Board will take action upon them. Mr. Keiser will be back to-morrow and the quorum for the decisfon of the June wheat squeeze will be secured. Mur. Oliver is here and very anxious to go on with the trial. Alligators. Workmen have been engaged in cleaning out the pool of water in Benton Park fora ‘day or two past, for the purpose of separat- ing the gold fish from the carp. They found more than they bargained for. To-day five young alligators, measuring about two feet each, over six barrelsfull of sunfish and a larze number ofcarp and gold fish were found How the alligators got in the pond is a mys- tery. Trouble Feared. McKEESPORT, Pa., August 4. The acts of yesterday were repeated with renewed vigor to-day. The non-union men were subjected to all manner of abuse and insult. There is no out-and-out violence as yet, but it is ex- pected. The will is running with increased force to-day. The women k part in the mob this morning. Men went under police escort to and from the works. Man- ager Fivger and the Converse boys are de- termined to run the mills. The citizens will support them. The police are inefficient and indifferent. The strikers are threatening and taik loud. Non-union men are followed by mobs bieating like sheep. | Barges Lost.

Order of Progress—Proportion of the i Sexes. : From the New York Times. The census figures show 246 cities having a population vf 10,000 or more, and as the one at ihe foot of the list—Columbia, S. U.—has ooly 40 over the 10,000, later corrections may carry the number up to à round 250. New York stands 43,700 short of a million and a quarier, but if Brooklyn, Jersey City and Hoboken were added, the Metropolitan Dis- trict”? would just miss a round to millions (1,924,653). New York, Philadelphia, and B vokivn stand at the head of the list, as in 1870; St. Louis and Chicago, which stood fourth and fifth in 1870 (310.864 and 298,977), shift positions, Chicago becoming fourth, with 903, 185, and St. Louis falling back two places, with 350,518, While Boston slips from _ seventh place up to fifth (362,889), and Baltimore slips down one piace to the seventh (332,213). The eighth place is held by Cincinnati, as in 1870, although compayison as to that city is coufused by the exclusion of some territory ine uded in 1870. New Orleans and San Francisco, which were in ninth and tenth Places in 1870 (191,418 and 149,473), exchange places, nom having 233,959 and 216,090. After ine tenth place in 1870 (aeld by New Orleans) the order was Buffaio, Washington, Newark, Louiaville, and then the figure fell under 100,000; now the order stands the same, with Cleveland and Pittsburg interposed above these four, and Jersey City, Detroit, Mil- vaukee and Providence are added before the 100,000 limit is passed. The following shows the number of eities in several grades by the last two censuses: Population 1870. 1880. 10,000 CO eee eee 144 J bb 35 90, 00 £0 „eee ese eee eee eee eee 1S 19 Geeooteoeeeeee.eeeeeeeebeeesee ee 7 10 ieee ...es ee — 60,000 CO 70,000. „„ „ „„ „„ 000 70,000 to 80 eee see see eee eee ee eee eee 100, 000 to e 26392552522 „4 „„ „6 125,000 to „bees esse 150,000 co 175,00 0 Ut 175, 000 tO 200, 0% 0 eeeeee „%„„%„ „ „446 200, 000 60 300, 000. . „ 6 660 eee 300, 000 to 500, 0 % . 500, 000 and Over 6 „ „ „% „%%% „% „ „„ — *These figures are probably not quite com bo et Om m Go Ow CO 8 plete tor 1870, as they are taken from u list of what are now the hundred principal cities.

New Orleans. 24,672 13 18 16... 20. Louisville 323, 005 In some of the smaller cities the percentage of growtb exceeds any shown above. Minne- apolis, Oakland, Cal., Grand Rapids, Wilkes- barre, Des Moines and Holyoke show 100 per cent or more increase; Bay City, Mich., shows nearly 200, and Denver carries the maximum percentage of growth upto 750. Charleston shows a growth of only 1,028, having now 49,984 population; Poughkeepsie has grown only 127; Springfield, III., has grown only 2,379, showing now 19,743; Mobile and Mem- his have retrograded, showing 29,132 and 33,592, a loss of 2,902 and 6,634. Looking at the division ofthe sex, we find females predominating in ail but five of the twenty largest cities forming the class of 100,000 or more population, the exception be- ing Chicago, St. Louis, San Francisco, Cleve - land and Pittsburg;in these twenty cities, males are 2,946,507, and females are 3,214,232 an excess of 267,665 in the latter. Of the eighty remaining cities of the list we are ex- amining only seventeen show a predomin- ance of males, namely, Columbus, Ohio; Scranton, Fort Wayne, Terre Haute, Des Moines, Springfield, Ohio; Bay City and the more or'ess border cities of Kansas City, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Denver, Oakland, Cal.; St. Joseph, Grand Rapids, Omaha, Sacramento and San Antonio. In the 100 cities there is au excess of 341,151 femaies, and as there is a predominance of males to the extent of 888,290 in the general popu- lation, this shows how the female inhabits cities. Whether she comes there by migration, bv birth, by survival, or by ali three, in a comparatively large measure, is a problem. Another is the comparatively large growth of cities themselves. They can hardly be called the ganglia of tne country, for they do not exactly supply motive energy to it, al- though they do send out impulses (as from nerve centers) from their fervid and intense being. They continually draw from the country outside, and it is probabiv the fact that the successful man even in city life was a “country boy,“ and that, if there were fairy god-mothers now who bestowed ante-nata! gifts, the wise and kindly ones among them would bespeak country rather than cit; birth. The cities are distributing centers; they originate less than hey exchange and parce! out, and in thie view they may be re- garded as among the tools of the worid. Disheartened Colonists. From the Chattanooga Times. Yesterday morning three Englishmen ar- rived at the wharf in a small skiff, looking the worse for wind and weather and visibly attenuated from exposure and privations, and they tell astory that will arouse sympa- thy. Theycame to America afew months ago, attracted by the roseate picture of Rng- by and with bright visions of a speedy for- tune and an early return to their native land, laden with riches and happy experiences; but no sooner had they reached the colony when their giowing hopes faded, and day by dav their spirits became depressed; dis- appointment succeeded disappointment, until their purses commenced to decrease, and the necessity of doing something arose. They finally conciuded to try thei; fortunes inthe far West, but their financia! condition was such thut the closest economy was necessary. They proceeded to the near- est river station, which is Kingston, and there purchased a skiff and left with the firm determination of floating down the Ten- nessee tothe Mississippi and thence to New Orleans or some near — where they would take the cars for Sherman, their des- tination. Their experience on the river was another sad disappointment; the saturating realities of daily rains and the dangers of shoais and pools, the privations of food and the exposure to myriads of carniverous in- recta by nicht, soon disgusted them with such life, and they arrived here yesterday morning disheartened, but determined to cease river navigation at ailevents. They now intend to sell their skiff, pool their funds and buy three tickets to any point they can reach, 5 — — Mrs. Woodhull Speaks, From the Liverpool Express.

Killed by Silence. From tue Boston Herald. Assassination by silence” is the latest Gal- liciam. It was the verdict of the medical men and of society in the case of a Freuch- woman recently deceased, and a Coroner’s jury would probably have rendered the same verdict if the case bad not been kept from the Coroner. Noble by birth she was and very rich; but she was hopelessly plain, ugly of feature and hump-backed. er husband, a duke, married her for her money and hated her for her ugliness. A fortnight after her wedding her martyr- dom began, but not as other conjugal mar- tyrdoms have done. The duke lavished at- tentions on her—in public; he was sffection- ate—before the servants; it was darling“ aud „beloved“ and “my little cat?’—whep aby one Was present; but in private changed, and only one old nurse was in the secret. He pretended to be jealous of her, and so played the Othello. He nad the hingesof all the doors so carefully oiled that they could be opened without a creak, the domestics were trained to move about noiselessly, snares were set in the vast gardens of their hotel so that never the chirp of the sparrow was heard. The poor woman was forced to live in the midst of silence, and when they went together into society he scowied so fearfully at every one who approached his wife to speak to her that little by little people ceased to make the effort. And then, after they had returned aud she bad gone to bed, he would enter with list shoes on his feet so as not to an- nounce his coming, and would simulate a scene of jealousy. That isto say, he would pace up and down like one ina fury who is would seem on the point of issuing from his mouth; then he would stop by the bedside and raise his hand in threat, but he never struck, he never spoke, and resuming his walk would go through the same scene over again until, overcome by fatigue and horror, the Duchess swooned. Every night for ter years his victim watched for menaces which he seemed about to proffer, but to which he never gave vent. The doctors were sum- moned at last, but the utmost they could say was that they were in the presence of some horrible mystery, which could not be fath- omed without killing the husband. And when the poor woman died andthe old nurse told her story they rendered the verdict above recorded. 7 ‘ LYDIA E. PINKHAM’S VEGETABLE COMPOUND.

Business Department Editorial Rooms PaRDONS for gamblers are as cheap in Mis- souri as honorary University degrees. Bos PaTrE’s Governor is still preparing material for the Legislative Investigating Committee next winter. TOUCHING the liquor question, the proper place for all good citizens is the juste-mileau. That's where the Post-Dispatca will be found. THE Anti-Monopolistsin New York have started a weekly paper with a big black head, which they call Justice. It flourishes a two-edged sword. THE Republican remarks in its off-band way this morning: It will learn those city feilers,’’ etc. This, wel presume, is Early E igiish—say about 1808. a CONGRESS will probably adjourn next Monday. As Maj. PITCAIRN would say: „Disperse, ye profligates, disperse!’’ (with horse-pistol accompaniment.’ — THE secrecy which surrounds the alleged petitions upon which CRITTENDEN bases his eecond pardon of the gamblers is an evidence of rascality. None better should be required by intelligent people. ARE any doubts left lingering in the pub- lic mind now relative to TOM CRITTENDEN’S relations to the gambling fraternity of St. Louis? Certainly the Governor has spared no pains to define his position. BoTaA the Washington Post and the Wash- ington Republican are now located in the game palatial building and HUTCHINS is landlord. This is very convenient for people who are compelled in the course of business to see the papers. PATE’s profession of reformation and his promise to lead a better life seem to have touched the humane Governor on a tender spot. But the tender spot was probably cre- ated when BOLAND and KINKRAD were ap- pointed Police Commissioners. — — Ir must tax the limited ingenuity of Tox CRITTENDEN, Doctor of Pardons, to cloak a piece of bold-faced rascality under a thin covering of hypocritical benevolence and moral cant which the Rev. Mr. Chadband would scarce think of resorting to. — PETITIONS to Executives are in the nature of public business. Why does CRITTENDEN hide the names of the citizens of St. Louis whoasked for the pardon of PATE and his gambling companions? Is he ashamed of the character of the petitioners or does he lie when he says that the pardons were peti- tioned for? eS ae cng cee A WEEK ago MCCHESNEY, the gamblers. “stall,” told his acquaintances that Par would be pardoned in a shorttime. “The Governor can’t go back on him,“ was the re- mark of the astute go-between. It will be remembered that MCCHESNEY is the gentle- man who informed the world for the first time that money had been paid to secure the appointment of BOLAND and KINKEAD as Police Commissioners. : THE Globe-Democrat was of the opinion yesterday that the Indiana Democratic plat- form did not say anything about Pronibition. Yet if the Missouri Republican platform should happen to include what the Indiana resolution says on that subject there will be a fearful commotion in the ranks. As the Globe-Democrat wants the subject ignored by the Missouri Republicans, why not try the Indiana method of ignoring it? — — THE appointment of Mr. C. M. WHITNEY to the profitable, not to say fat,“ position of Surveyor of the Port of St. Louis, not only surprised the old wheel-horses of the Repub- lican party but paiged aud disgusted them as well. It was generally supposed that Gen. CAVENDER had a sure thing on Mr. St. Gru's shoes, WHITNEY beinglooked upon as the bindmost man in the race. Having never figured as a Republican worker, there is some curtosity to know what Mr. WHITNEY based his claims on. He is said to be a lawyer, is high up in the Legion of Honor, is reputed to have bebn in the war, and those who know him intimately say that he is adevilish clever fellow. The nose of the Globe Democrat seems to have been knocked out of joint by the appointment, and we learn from private sources that Mr. FILLEY is not supremely: happy. Altogether the President has created something of a sensation in this quarter. — — + ACCORDING to the Chicago Times, CARL SCHURZ is a candidate for Congress in one of the New York city districts which boasts of a large Republican majority. We would like to see Mr. SCHURZ placed where the general public could have a chance to pass upon his clams to office. CakoLus has done consid- erable cffice-holding in his day, but he has secured most of his preferment by appoint- ment. He was made a Major-General by LIN- COLN, a Senator by the Missouri Legislature, Secretary of the Interior by Hayes. We have an idea that CARL will never get mucb com- fort out of the American ballot- box. —— LOG-ROLLIXIG. It is to be regretted that the law did not permit President ARTHUR to designate and veto the unconstitutional and improper items in the river and harbor bill without vetoing the others. Everybody admits that some of the items were mere steals, which a Presi- dent mindful of his constitutional obliga- tions could not approve. But it is well known tbat the river appropriations which he specially recommended and approved were the very ones his friends in the East most desired to defeat, while some of the appro- priations for unheard-of harbors and creeks in the East, which be would not have dared to veto, are regarded by his friends in the West as utterly indefensible. He could not have vetoed a single item without outraging the loyalty of soms constituency that is for the old flag and an appropriation. Wild- eyed members would have shaken their hairy fists under his nose and told him that be was wrecking the country and ruining tbe party. The overwhelming majority by which the bill was passed over his veto in botb houses shows how weak public virtue is in the presence of a full Treasury and an appro- priation bill that is judiciously comprehen- sive in its log-rolling liberality. The mem- bers cannot be expected to be more rigidly scrupulous in such matters than their con- stituents, and where is the constituency that would forgive their Senator or Representa- tive for voting against a big steal in which they were allowed asmall share? The pre- vailing doctrine is that the appropriation business is a game of grab, and that the highest service a member can render his district is in restoring, under the guise of an appropriatiop, some of the money it has paid into the Treas- ury. And so it happens that every million voted to necessary improvements carries witb it three millions for grabs. Thé development of this evil long ago en- gaged our statesmen in the discussion of a practical remedy for it, and among others was suggested a constitutional amendment requiring appropriations for public improve- ments to be made specificalty in separate bills, each to stand or fall by its own merits. Nothing was done,and the passing of ah eighteen million bill over the veto the other day, when half of those voting for it would have voted against half of the items if they could have had what they wanted with - out voting for the whole, bas again jdirected public attention to the matter. New York some years ago struck at this evil in her State Legislature by adopting a constitutional provision which permits the Governor to veto any item he chooses in an appropriation bill while approving the rest. This puts the vetoed item before the Legis- lature upon its separate strength, and leaves those who still vote to pass it with no justifi- catron or excuse but its own merits. The result is a great saving lu the amounts ap- propriated, anda still greater saving by the discouragement thus presented to the pro- moters of log- rolling jobs. The practical operation of the remedy is said to bave de- moralized the lobby“ and made ita mere shadow of its former self. No doubt the President rejoices sincerely that he was not clothed with such dis- cretion in the present instance, and perhaps he would not have shown superior wisdom in exercising it. But we now see plainiy that some expedient which will force separate action on items of appro- priation bills, and fix the responsibility for each one, is absolutely necessary to protect the Treasury from a log-rolling habit upon which there is now no check. —üU[— ENGLAND is getting into a very close place in the Egyptian muddle. She first demanded that the Sultan as sovereign of Egypt should interfere to restore order and support the authority of the Khedive. Now, when she has bombarded and taken military possession of Alexandria, she insists that any Turkish troops sent in obedience to the conference of the Powers must act under the orders ot the British commander. This would be a com- plete surrender to England of Turkey's sov- ereignty in Egypt, andit appears that Rus- sia, Austria, Italy and Germany will support Turkey in rejecting this demand, and are in- clined to trust the restoration of order to the Sultan alone, as the recognized sovereign. The Dx FREYCINCT ministry was wrecked in the heroic effort to co-operate with England, and Dx Lxssxrs is making trouble by proclaiming “‘perfidious Albion”? guilty of an act of War in grossly violating the neutrality of the canal. As president of the company, he announces his purpose to resist and appeal tothe Powers against England’s attempt to exercise police supervision over the canal under the authority of the Khedive, whoigher prisoner. Oo the other hand, ARABI, at the head of an Egyptian army of 70,000 men, proclaims himseif the defender and representative ofthe Sultan’s sovereign * * i ; 1 1 4 - 8 * e's. $4 ee AEE a ²˙ Pe Ma ee oe Ee 1 een 8 n 25 7 fF de 0 1 7 N i. ees punder the circumstances, rather stiff and authority in holding Egypt against a hostile invader, with whom the deposed Khedive is acting either as a prisoner or asa traitor to his sovereign and bis country. England’s demand that ARaBI shall be proclaimed a rebel against the Sultan's authority before any Turkish troops are landed in Egypt is, unreasonable, and will hardly be supporied bythe Powers. In chort, the situation is becoming quite a squeeze to England, and it looks as if she will have either to offend Europe, and siagle-handed encounter a worse and more dangerous complication, or back out, and leave the Sultan to recon- struct the Egyptian Government under the direction of the Powers. That will simply mean a new Khedive, less subject to that Anglo-French control to which the other Powers gave, from the first, a very reluctant consent. ee — — — CHINESE cheap crime appears to be coming into formidable competition with the native American article in the courts at San Fran- cisco. In two consecutive days last week no less than thirty-three natives of the Flowery Kingdom were hauled before the Police Jus- tice on various charges of keeping or patron- izing gambling games, and most of them were mulcted in sums ranging from 420 to $40. Ninetéen laundrymen were brought to book for violating city ordinances, and were only released after they had given bond to the ex- tent of $100 apiece. One was confronted with the majesty of the law under a charge of forging the signature of a brother Celestial to the by-laws of the Sung Ka Hong Carpen- ters’ Association,“ and at last accounts was in a fair way of contributing forty dollars to the judiciary fund. la the Federal District Court AH TIE and An SING owned up to having smuggied tobacco ashore from a steamer, and their candor cost each of them just $50. In the same court AH GEONG and AH CHONG failed to make it plain that the cigars they kept for sale were properly stamped, and are now working out fines of $50 each. AH TING got off scot free by con- vineing the court that he was not carrying on an unlicensed cigar factory. At this rate it will not take the Mongolian brethren oa the Pacific Slope many months to acquire a fa- miliar knowledge of the elementary princi- ples of common and statute law prevailing in this benighted Republic. ° IN bis second address to the people of the State in defense of his leniency to self-con- victed gamblers, CRITTENDEN says, in bis usual canting, hypocritical, sniveling style: I am informed that gambling and lottery are no longer carried on in the city. If that is so, the law and its executioners have accom- plished much good in a short time. Under the management of the police force of the city no such evils will again appear, and their absence will be and is a source of gratification to all law-abiding citizens. I think the people are satisfied with the operation and results of the law; also with the disposition of the cases growing out of the prosecutions. Public gam- bling having been so effectually suppressed within tne last year, itis to be hoped that it will not find places of conceaiment in the pure lieus and retired places of the city. Passing by the assumption that the law was simply enacted to ecare gamblers into good behavior, and not to punish them for their offenses against society, we come to the hope expressed by the Governor that the ‘‘sup- pressed’’ evil will not break out “in the purlieus and retired places of the city.” It is a favorite theory with the gamblers that if public gambling is suppressed it will find an abiding-place in dark alleys and remote places into which unsuspecting searchers after sport will be enticed and cruelly robbed. The Governor shows, by his fervent wish, that be has had close consultation with the gamblers. He has even adopted their style of argument and style of thought. Mr. F. Sr. XAVIER MCCABE, the new Po- lice Commissioner, admits that he recently took the job of horse-shoeing for the Police Department away from the contractor and turned it over to the political striker Ep. BUTLER, at an advance of 33% per cent. Furthermore, he says that he is proud of the transaction. Ofcourse he is. Mr. F. Sr. XAVIER MCCABE, being thoroughly in love with himself, is just the kind of man to be proud ofanything that he does—especially when he thinks that he is advancing his political interests. But pride goes before a fall, and Mr. F. ST. XAVIER MCCaBR, before he vacates the lofty position which he now holds, may not stand so well in his own ar- fections as he does to-day, He is exposed now to great temptations, and, though a man of stern integrity and high moral stamina, he may not always be able to induce Satan to get behind him. The peculiar talent which Mr. F. Sr. XAVIER MCCaBE displayed ia helping to adjustthe unfortunate misunder- standing between JOHN AMWEG and young Mr. HASELTINE is about the worst thing that a man can take into a Police Board in msea- son of social demoralization and lax politica! morals, NOT quite a year ago President GarFIELD died, andthe New York World calls atten- tion to the fact that old POLAND, who brand- ed him io a Coogressionai report as guilty of perjury and bribe-taking,is coming to the Re- publican front in Vermont, and that not one of the Ohio Representatives putin an appear- ance at the laying of the corner-stone of the GARFIELD memorial church the other day, nor was there present on that occasion one single member of the Cabinet which he put together at such a sacrifice of reputation.

For a similar outrage upon an old lady HENRY CALDWELL, a vegro, was taken from Jail, bung and shot by a mob at Ironton, Mo., last week. Almost every day the papers tell of the swift punishment invariably meted out by Judge Lynch to the perpetrators of this species of crime, Not onein a hundred of them is permitted to live forty-eight hours after the deed. The punishment of no other crime in this country is, so inevitable, 80 swift. The whole neighborhood joins in the bunt for the wretch, and he is dealt with as unceremoniously and as mercilessly as it be were a wild beast ora mad dog. Still there seem to be many brutish men who are not aware of this fact. — From casual remarks dropped by the Post. DISPATCH upon the St. Louis police question, we should judge that the old fogy and erand- motherly Republican has got our energetic and lively evening contemporary by the heels. This may possibly be attributed to the glossy buckeye the Governor carries in his leit pock- et for luck.—{ Kansas City Journal. It you were only able to read the newspa- pers intelligentiy you would probably observe that the PosT-DisPaTCH has no interest in the police service beyond having it properly and bonestiy administered, At last accounts the Repullican—which bas a great deal of police business—was not satisfied. In fact it was very unhappy. The late change may have benefited the KNapPs in some way, but we are not yet advised on this point. — THERE should have been a small editorial paragraph in the Republican this morning in- dorsing and upholding Gov. CRITTENDEN, L. L. D., for his second pardon of PaTE and his fellow gamblers. For reasons which are too painful to mention in a public print the paragraph was not written. We believe that we violate no private confidence when we say thatthe Governor has nowno organin St. Louis. The raw coolness which sprung up between the KNAaPPPS and the Governor when the Republican turned its squirt on the indorsement scheme In the State Convention has nowturned toArctio frigidity, and as SHAKESPEARE puts it, “Poor Tom’s a-cold“ indeed. IN 1881 there were 11,142 miles of railroad built in the United States, making the total mileage 104,815. The gross earnings in- creased $110,000,000 and the net earnings $22,000,000 over the previous year. The div- idends paid were $93,344,200, against $77,115,- 411 in 1880. The total cost of construction during the year, including new lines and im- provements on old ones, was about $400,000,- 000. The railroad building ofthis year prom- ises to exceed the amount in 1881, which was the largest on record. All of which induces the Boston Herald to remark, in an outburst of enthusiasm, that this is a great country. —— — Tug frisky humor ofthe Republican's edl - torial paragraphs bids defiance to all the law- ful fences erected by grammarians and lexi- cographers and romps playfully inthe new pastures of unwritten slang. Here is a specimen: Jackson county vas singing her soft soap around with a promiscuousity—no other word fits exactly—which caught Jonnson county wide awake. It will learn those city {fejers not to be so friggety, as is were. We! have sent down for a diagram of the unfamiliar word ‘‘friggety.’’ THE right of a vouug lady past tbe age of twenty-one to undertakea job of bousekeep- ing by whomeodever offered has just been vindicated in Greene county in this State. The father of Miss LAURA ROBBS, aged twenty-seven, attempted to hold her to con- tinued service in the paternal mansion by locking her up in a room when she had made a verbal contract to serve Mr. GEORGE W. BisHoe. A writ of habeas corpus unlocked the door of the paternal prison, and they were married in spite of the father’s objec- tions, CRITTENDEN declared last week that he would not pardon PATE again unless upon petition of the citizens of St. Louis. Yester- day the pardon was issued but the Governor declines to place the petition on exhibi- tion. He bas refused all reporters who have called upon him asightofit. Whenhe next goes down to Warrensburg to address the Good Samaritans he will probably explain this remarkable piece of secretiveness, just as he explained some of his other offenses on the occasion of his Jast visit. THEY put down four for Graves and the Johnson county delegates declared she goes asshelays.’’ There were sixty-four votes in the convention—Lafayette cast 16, Johnson 14. When Jackson county parted with four votes she was left. The country fellows just filled theirhand when they drew that four.—jRe- publican, The spirit of playfulness in this paragraph raises a suspicion that the KNapes are at it again. Years bave elapsed since they were last indicted for gambling, but the ruling passion is strong even in old age. ve — — —— GOV. CRITTENDEN, in closing his speech at Warrensburg, nominated Samuel J.

The State of Missouri has been made famous in literature during the past year and a half, by the clear, pure, sparkling Johnsonian English used by our Governor in his libera pardons to various offenders of the law. If his Excellency had written nothing more than his peroration in his last exoneration of Mr. Pate hisfame would be enduring.

It Is Wanted by the Board tor vy Political Wir e-Worker, The Police Commissioners Adopt a New Plan for Appointments and Promotions. The policy of the new Police Board is just bristling with schemes, which as yet are only in the bud, but which will, for the benefit of the public, be blown into flowers as they appear. One of these little schemes worked by Mr. Francis X. Jones-MecCabe, by which Ed. Butler is rewarded at the public expense for his services, was Ventilated in these columns yesterday. Another little plan now in the shell is to pay Mr. Albert Hercules for his services by oust- ing Secretary Gavin and placing Hercules in the position! of Secretary of the Board of Police Commissioners. Hercules is in the employ of Barney Thorman, Boland’s right hand man. Crittenden cut off Boland’s off cial head for his poor judgment ana bad blunders while Vice-President of the Police Board. Boland is opposed to Crittenden, aud Thorman is consequently. {Notwithstanding this, Hercules who is a Central Committeemao, did herculean work to help Martin for the Supreme Judgeship in the southern portion of the city. Albert, who ts a brotber of Capt. Joseph Hercules of the Second District, is not averse to — the position at $2,000 a year The duties are light and the only requisite qualification demanded is for the applicant te possess the ability to keep his mouth shut. Hercules’ connection with the Centra! Committee is sufficient guarantee of his fitness to saw wood and say nothing when his superiors are desirous of keeping their work secret from the public. At the last meeting of the board ex-Chief Kennett appeared be- fore that right honorable bodv and said tha! Secretary Gavin had maligned bim and put in circulation a story that Kennett had appro- priated to dis own use $1,000 while acting treasurer of the police relief fund.

The Zimmerman Suicide—No Work the Cause—A Sad Case, The Coroner held an inquest this morning at 11 o’clock at No. 700 South Main street on the body of Isaac Zimmerman, the tinner who committed suicide last night at 10 o’clock in the presence of his wife. According to her evidence deceased was 360 pears old and born in Germany. He had been a tinsmith by occupation and before his death worked at Meyrose’s riiiroad lamp factory, on Fourth and Gratiot streets. Lately he had been sick with fever, and when he recovered he went back to work, He stated to his wife that his fellow workmen teased him about carrying a pistol and he left work last Saturday. Another story is that he was discharged and that the loss of his job led bim to take his life. He found no work during the week and appeared very despondent, lying about his rooms a greater part of the time. Yesterday evening he seemed more than ordinarily moody and ate no supper. The witness re- tired for the night at about 9:30 o’clock and requested Zimmerman to do likewise, He refused and took a seat at the window, say- ing he would go to bed later.

He bad been there but five minutes when the fatal shot was dred. Witness found him ying on the floor with the pillow grasped in his arms anda hole in his forehead. The pistol was in bis right hand.

A Poker Player’s Plaint. From the Chicago Times. The New York dispatches were burdened a ke weeks ago with accounts describing how Francis P. Weed was defrauded out ef $450,- MK} ip attempting to master the game of draw poker, and of which sum he dropped $150,000 a’ one sitting While playing with Montravelle M. Hedge, snd William M. Scott. The re- ma kahle game was plaved at Newburg, N. Y., and soon afterward Weed instituted euit Against both these parties to recover tue money, putting in the claim that he had been ewinded,and that he bad been taken in by eharp practice. The arrest of Scott was ef- fected in this city recently ona requisition from the Governor of New York. Yesterday a petition for release us der the habeas corpus act was filed in the Circnit Court, Messrs. S. K. Dow and Lyman & Jackson appearing as counsel for Scott. ‘Ibe petition shows that the requisition is based on an indictment found by the grand jury of Orange county; charging Scott WItD Conspiracy, dealing faro snd gambling. The petitioner then goes on to declare that in the winter of 1877, in company with pis rotuer, he went to the State of California for tue purpoee of visiting his twin-brother, who was then residing on the sloße for the benefit of bis health, being afflicted with consump. ‘lon. The brother died in 1878, and follow. ing his decease the petitioner engaged for a tiie io the fruit business in California. In February or March, 1881, he visited New- burgh, remainiog there until Juiy of that year. During the period he saw Weed daily, and was on friendly terms with him, but ber had anyideaor intimation that Weed had any complaint against him. Hereturned {.

When he left Los Angeles he had not heard of the complaint made by Weed, and only learned of it on his arrival in Chicago. While in this city he had had frequent hemorrhages, and has been confined to his bed, tn the Briggs House, since June 13. He contemplates returning to Newburgh to plead tothe indictments a3 soon as he is physically able to travel. Coming down to the games of poker, he denies that he has been guiity of chealing Weed in any wax. or that he entered into a conspiracy with Hedges to cheat or defraud him, or that he srranged or “put up cards with which they were playtug in such a way that he, the said Scott, would get the strong- est or winning hand, as is alleged in said at- fidavit."g@ He does not deny having played games of cards with Weed, and, in fact, avers that Weed taught bim how to play cards, but he gives no details of the gaming. He finally asserts that he is inmo sense a fugitive from justice, and asks for hia release from arrest. The bearing is set before Judge Moran in the Circuit Court to-morrow forenoon. A DOUBLE CHILD. The Stngular Product of a New Jersey Woman. Philadelphia Special to Chicago Tribune. A chiid with two heads, four arms and four legs was born near Bordentown, N. J., on Sunday of Mrs. Mary Smith, the wife of Henry Smitb, a well-known butcher engaged in busi- ness in Bordentown. In order to save the life of the mother the operation of embryotomy was performed, and tbe monstrosity only lived a few hours after being brought into the world. So wonderfui and perfect is its forma- tion that Dr. Dye, one of tne attending physi- cians, has bad the double babe preserved in alcohol for examination by physicians. Mrs. Smith is a healthy woman of 24 or 25 years. She is already the mother of twins, which were born two years ago unattended by any unusual circumstances. The birth on Sun- day last took place in Groveville, about three miles from Bordentown, at the house of Mrs. Smith’s mother, Mrs. Van Blunt, and was attended by Dr. Young, of Bordentown, and Dr. Dye, of Crosswicks. There was nothing apparently in the physical condition of Mrs. Smith previous to her illness to indicate that she was about to become the mother of any other thana natural child. Dr. Dye was called in first, hut certain in- dications pointed out the neces- sity of calling another physician in con- suitation. Dr. Young was summoned, and seveo hours after his arrival the monstrosity was born. An examination showed that it waseven more wonderful being than the famous Siamese twins. The heads, arms and legs were separate and distinct. A flesny ligament extending from below the shoulder- blades down tbe sides, covering almost one- half ofeach abdomen, made the bodies ap- pear almost like one. There was no ma'for- mation in the individual bodies except where the connection was made. Each infant, to speak of them as two, was naturally propor- tioned and of normal size. The weight of each was seven pounds and the sex female. It was found that the connecting band of flesh was filled with arteries and ‘veins, and that the life of one was dependent upon that ofthe other. Whether there existed two sets of ribs on the side where the bodies joined it was impossible to de- termine without an autopsy, but from all external appearances it seemed that there were two sets of ribs that were only partially developed. The lungs were separate, out it could not be ascertained whether there were two hearts or not. The monstrosity possessed two backbones, two stomachs and two sets of livers, while the pelvis seemed to be joined at its anterior portions. #laken altogether, there was such an intimate relation between all the parts and organs that the mecnstrosity can be properly denominated a double child, whose life, had it lived, would have been dependent upon each of the bodies. It was regretted by the physicians that the wonderful infant nad to be destroyed, but the mother’s life was at stake, and it was absolutely necessary to crush One ofthe skulls in order to save the mother’s life. Dr. Nye contemplates keeping the specimenin its present state until it is examined by some prominent obstetricians, and then bave it dissected for the benefit of science. Notice.

Little George and Harriet. Grindly, the children who were shipped with tags upon their clothing from Manchester, Engiand, to their mother in this city, sat on a settee in No. 5 MeDonald court, near Fifteenth and Race streets, yesterday morning, kicking their heels together and taking their first breaths of the air of their new home. The arrival of the children had been waited with interest by the people of the neighborhood. They received au ovation from the dwellers in the court which rendered them speechless wnen questioned as to their ad- ventures on the long journey of over three tbousand miles by land and sea. Their mother had expected them to arrive at Ninth and Green streets depot, but for some rea- son the little ones were taken to West Phila- delphia, where they arrived at 1 o’clock yes- terdav morning. Later in the day a policeman brought the news to McDonald court and Mrs. Griadly bastened to claim the children she bad not seen for three years, In the meantime the tidings spread through the court and the people gathered in groups and talked over the great event in all its bearings. When the children made their appearance, which they did about noon, the court was crowded and No. 5 was ina state of siege. Men and women and boys and girls were there in numbers and wel- comed the infant immigrants rapturousiy, George, who is eight vears old, is a sturdy young Briton and eyed hts surroundings un- concernedly. He was attired in a neat cord- uroy suit, to Which was attached the tag bearing the address of his mother, by means of which directions he and bis six-year-old sister had been shipped from point to point on the journey. Their mother came to this country three years ago. Her busband had been killed in a coal mine two years before, leaving her the burden of five children to support. She brought her eldes: child, a girl of fifteen, with her, and was afterward joined by another daughter. The three worked industriously, and by dint of close economy managed to save money to send for two of the remaining chil- dren. Afew weeks ago Mrs. Grindly sent 57 tothe agent of the steamship company, 315 of which was to pay for their transporta- tion to Liverpool and the balance to go to the steamship company for their passage to this city. Tuev received the greatest attention on board the steamship, and upon their arrival at Castle Garden created no little interest among the officials there, who promptly transferred them to the cars for Philadelphia, well supplied with sweetmeats. The boy summed up his experiences by saying: ‘‘Hi were sick, ma, hawful sick, hall the way hover.“ AFTER the race to-morrow at race track, Blackwood Maid will be sold at auction to the highest bidder.

The latest freak of that eccentric monarch, Ludwig of Bavaria, was manifested in his at- tendance at the performance of ‘Parsjfal’’ at Bayreuth. It was officially announced that he would leave Castle Berg on Juty 26, at 2 inthe afternoon. Instead, however, he stole away, to avoid the much-hated public demon- stration, on July 25, at balf-past 3 in the morning. Traveling by special train, he did not go direct to Bayreuth, but stopped in an open field, some distance from the town, andalighted at the little cabin of a track- walker, from which, bastily sand all unno- ticed by the public, he mage bis way to bis iodge, fitly termed The Hermitage.’’ bad declined to treat ber as his “THE MUDIRS. An Egyptian Office Explained—Ro- mance of the Upper Nile. From the New York Herald. The fact that Europeans still remain in Upper Egypt would indicate that the popula- tions residing beyond the limits of cities and larger towns, with their habitual wariness about going to war, have not as yet taken any direct or at least serious part in the outbreak. The action of the Governor of Minieh, 136 miles up the Nile from Cairo, was a perfectly natural proceeding for that official, when he refused to permit any interference with the administration of the railways. The province ot which Minieh ig the capital is agricul- turally one of the richest in Egypt, and the Governor considers himself an im- portant factor in the governmental machinery along the Nile. When travelers stop there he generally provides an, elaborate Turkish dinner, the inevitable chibooks and coffee, and gayly caparisoned asses and donkeys on which to mount to visit the points of interest lying beyond the town. Then follows the fantisser, with the Eyyptian dancing girls; the gwhazee, which holds the party far be- yond midnight to the sound of revelry and the rude native music. Few of the large towns along the river have ever bad a heartier or more hospitableg Mudir than Minieh. The town is simply mud city of some fifteen thousand souls, dwelling near the bank of the river in all of the squalor peculiar tothe Egyptian habita- tions. In these settlements, and as such they are further to southward, the entire population—men, women and children—are made to work. The Mudir nolds his appoint- meut from the Khedive or through the Min- ister of the Interior, who manages the eutire local administration. The Mudir has supreme charge of the taxation in his province, in fact, is king of tbe domalus over which his tjurisdiction extends. He must, however, be careful to see that every intermediate official be- tween bimself and the Khe- dive receive handsome presents, and neither must they be insignificant in point of vaiue, usually consisting ofa handsome bag of British sovereigns with proffers of eternal gratitude. At least annually the Mudir makes a visit to Cairo, and there he is ex- pected to signa'ize his advent in the capital by substantial testimonialsto the Khedive. These generally take the form not only of money, but also of the handsomest Egyptian maidens whom he can finden the province. Nor is their social quality respected There have been in years gone by terrible reprisals on account of the ruthless desecration of the household. Among the more spirited Bedouin Arabs, when their daughters and sisters bave been seized for the barem ofthe Mudir or the Khedive, the scheme of blood revenge has been developed, aad retribution bas followed until whole fam- ilies have been swept away. It thus appears thatthe Mudir is but a slave of the ruling power in Cairo, making the better Governor when he can excel in pandering to his imme- diate superior, the Minister, and then to the Kbedive. Thus it is that wben Arabi, now the supreme power at Cairo,calls on the six Mudirs of Upper Exypt for 500 horses aud 650 cam- els, they will be forthcoming or ibe Mudira will lose their positions, It is not always safe for a Governor of a province to reside among the people whom he has piundered and oppressed and whose fam- ilies be has entered with the lust of that most loathsome of ail creatures, the Turkish lib- ertine. It also not unfrequentiy happens that the Governors are nothing but common assas- sins, who are called upon to execute the sum- mary and secret vengeance of some Minister or favorite at court of whom they stand in awe. A case that occurred while the Heraid correspondent was in the upper country is directly to the point. A Turkisb official of high rank—he was a Bey—nhad long been a favorite of the Khedive at Cairo, for they had been educated together in France. This oflicial was, therefore, a great deal around tue palace, and it occurred to the Khedive’s mother that «he would like to mar- ry off a favorite child of the harem to a gal- lant officer in receipt of large pay. The Bey was summoned by the Khedive and told that his mother had found him a wife—a wondrous creature. Of course, in the East, such an intimation to a sub- ordinate is simply a command; yet while the Bey submitted he secretly chafed at what he considered a gross imposition upona friend, a Turkish aristocrat; and an officer ac- customed to European liberties and customs. The marriage took place and was a grand fete, costing many thousand dollars. Of course the Bey had never looked upon her face un- til after the nuptial knot was tied, and when he did neither the countenance nor the owner thereof was to his liking. Two years went by and the Khedive’s mother perceived that the young wife Was slowly pin- ing away. At last persistent in- quiry made the girl disclose that from the very hour of the ceremony the Bey wife. The Khedive’s mother—a perfect tigress—hasten- edi to His Highness aud demanded that the Bey should be put to deatn instantly. He could not refuse. The Bey was immediately seized, conveyed by a guard 1,800 miles to the Soudan, and upon his arrival the Govern- or-General was ordered to strangie him, but the Governor-General happened to be the life-long friend of the condemned man, and allowed him to live. Six different orders were sent to Kill him, but not one of them was obeyed. The Herald correspondent was the guest of this gentleman in the Soudan for over two months, and these facts came from his own lips. A better-educated man one seldom finds in the world’s travel. His books were Michelet, Victor Hugo, About, Schiller, Goethe, Heine, Irving, De Tocqueville and others. He fiually joined caravaos with the Herald correspondent on a journey of 1,500 miles to Cairo, and returned to Khartoum te become Governor-General in the very capital where he had been sent to be put to death. Ife has since been Minister of Public Instruc- tion in the service of the present Khedive. An lutelligent Toad. Prom tne Perismouth (N. H.( Caronicie,. Mr. Charles White, of Newcastle, has a brood of chickens which have a run of a por- tion of the yard, the old ben being kept shut up. The chickens are fed with moistened meal in saucers, and when the dough gets a little sour it attracts a large number of flies. An observant toad has evidently noticed this, and every day along toward evening he makes bis appearance in the yard, hops to a saucer, climbs in and rolls over and over unti! he is covered with meal, having done whicb he awaits developments. The flies, enticed by the smell, soon swarm around tne scheming batrachian, and Whenever one passes within two inches or so of his nose his tongue darts out and the fly disappears, and this pian works so well that the toad has taken it up as a regular business. The chickens do not manifest the jeast alarm at their clumsy and big-mouthed playmate, but seem to consider it quite a lark to gather around bim and peck off his stolen cout of meal, even when they have plenty more of the same sort in the eaucers.

It burt them to know that the cot- tage, whose design and arrangement had been the subject of so much thought, snould be so lightly esteemed charge was openl 1 have sought to sell such a Then the Camp Meeting Associa- that Mr. Harrison nad no deed of the cottage and it was never intended that he should have one. The cottage had been built for nis use onlv, and not for the tion discovered purpose of ale. A friend of Mr. Harrison appealed to the ladies who bad raised the money to build the cottage to know if such had been the under- standing, but none of them would make any answer. Then one of the suddenly-formed anti-Harrison party sprang to his feet and offered to return from his own means any contribution that had been made with the idea that the cottage was to be given to Mr. Harrison with the expectation that he would convert it into money. None of the coutrib- utors Went forward to ask that what she had given be refunded, and therefore it was de- cided that the cottage was not Mr. Harrison’s at all, and that it should be given to one of the bishops In the city. The case is considered as one of “Indian giving’ on tne part of the camp-Meeting people and of a surprising de- gree of love for the root of ull evil on the part of the evangelist. TELEPHONE Office ot the POST-DisPaTcnu. for the convenience of want advertisers, with John W. O’Brien, druggist, 1727 Cass avenue, THE EDITOR’S CONSCIENCE. Respousibility of the Men Who Control the Modern Press. George Wiiliam Curtis in the Chicago Unity. There is no more important power in civil- ized society than that which the editor di- rects. He may be neither a wise man nor an honest man. and his purpose treacherous, but he holds the publicear. He is believed to say what vast numbers believe. He can pursue an opponent with unsparing calumny. He can cover him with ridicuie every morning. He can assume public virtue aad invoke public indignation upon his victim’s head. At the threat of legal proceedings for libel he can raise successfully the cry that the liberty of tne press is endangered. However venal and essentially contemptible he may, be he holds in his hand the fuse of a torpedo, the match that can spring a magazine. Moreover, a newspaper is generally simply a business enterprise. If itis undertaken by an individual, it is for the purpose of making money, like aay other business. If1\ is estab- lished by a political party or religious sect or a moral reform, it is intended to be an organ of the purpose that foundsit. lu neither case is its primary object that of finding the truth or of telling it. It is subject, also, to the con- ditions of trade. It is an unprofitable specu- lation if it does not circulate widely. Its cir- culation, therefore—that is to say, its sale—is vital to its prosperity; and, like ail other traders, the proprietor must offer such wares as the buyers desire, and must provide con- stant attraction for his customers, who are of two classes, those who buy the paper and those who advertise init. But generally the profits proceed from the advertisements, and they depend uponthe circulation. The editor, therefore, who controls the paper, must please tue largest number of buyers possibile. Now, the traditional motto of trade is ‘Caveat emptor.” Let the buyer beware. It means that the buper must take care of bim- self, and not complain if he is cheated. It means that Mercury, the god of swindlers, is the genius of trade. It means that “all is fair in love and at the Custom- house.“ The news- paper proprietor or editor is a merchant. Is ne morally bound to be more conscientious than other merchants? Is it worse for him to be dishonest than it is for othertraders? For hiwself personally, no. No man individually can be more than honest, or less than dishon- est. The criminality of the murder com- mitted by Eugene Aram and of the Turkish anassacre at Scio Was essentialiy the same. The murder of one man or acommunity is but murder. Yetthe consequences are very differ- eat. It is the nature of the editor’s busi- ness which makes the conscience in him in- dispensable, which is of less consequence in the indtvidusl trader. The tailor who im- poses upon his customer shoddy for broad- cloth, or the shoemaker who sells pasteboard soles for leather, or the grocer who gives short weight and chicory for coffee, is a petty knave, aud his mischief is a petty mischief, But the editor who, to sell his papers, uses theenormous power that he controis to bold his advertisers, to pander to dangerous pre- judice, to flatter the passions ofthe mob, to distort the news, to defend dishonest public officers, or who accepts bribes of any kind, whether of advertisers or of public place, for silence, prevarication or falsehood, is not a grocer sanding the poor man’s sugar, be is a public criminal poisoning the city reservoirs. He is not selling rotten cloth, he is corrupting the principles of the people and ruining the commonwealth. More than 3,250,000 newspapers are fesued every day in this country. Upon tbeir bon- esty and ability depends not only the welfare of 50,000,000 of people, but the interest of progressive popular liberty. The editor con- trols this vast power, which is felt in every hamlet and home from Katahdin to Santa Barbara. His conscience determines whether it shal! be turned to au ble or ao iguoble re- suit, to human happiness or suffering. A conscienceless farmer, Or merchant, or teach- er, or manufacturer, or trader of any kind is a local nuisance and shame; but a con- acienceiess editor is a public calamity. Tbe editor is a trader, but only in the same way thatevery man is a trader who ex- changes his labor for bis means of living, The moral law which binds every rational be- ing binds the editor, and bis recreancy, as we ha ve seen, may be often very much more dis- astrous than the recreancy of others. The sophistry that would persuade him to sell his pen to say what he does not believe, would make him a mere bravo who sells his dagger, or a soldier of fortune, like Sforza, whose country was that which paid him most and who knew nocause but bis purse. The po- sition of an editor who says what he does not think, because he is paid for it, is not that of an bonorable advocate, Who only takes care that justice sball~ be legally done, but of ap unprincipled cbarlatan who strains every nerve to secure the release of the man whom he knows to be tie worst of criminals. A man can no more right- fully sell his pen to say What he does not think than his tongue to tell a lie. But, fortunately, ifa paper is a business enterprise, and an editor, in a certain sense, a trader, it is no less true in his business than in any Otber business that honesty is the best policy. Heistried by no sorer temptation than other men, and he has uo more excuse than otbers for not resisting témptation. The editor’s conscience, like that of every human worker who is brought in active contact with many men and various affairs, assures him, as the vid sailor said, that God nas somehow 80 fixed the world that a man can afford to do about right.

Ramsdell’s Letter in the Philadelphia [Press. Every officer of high standing in Washing- ington (of course there is here and there an exception), has his private body servant paid by the Government. The servantis entered onthe rolls of the Department of State, we will say, as messenger or laborer. He is one hour at the department and ten at the house of the Secretary. I do not mean to say that Mr. Frelinghuysen does this, but the practice is general. Then each department has two or three carriages which are usediby the high officials for official purposes, but used still more for social and family purposes. You ought to see some of the chief clerks in Washington in their fam- ily carrisges paid for out of the public purse. There are,or at least there were, barber shops in the departments, where the barbers were on the puolicrolis, and where the prin- cipal officers were shaved for nothing. Other barbers paid by the Government used to go to the houses of the officers and shave them and black their boots and brush. their clothes and do all other du- ties belonging toa body-servant. Then every Cabinet officer has a room furnished in hand- some styie in his own home by the Govern- ment—deske, sofas, chairs, bookcases and al! things needed—in elegant style. The Gov- ernment supplies monogram stationery of the most fashionable description, with scissors, knife and all the pretty accessories of the writing-desk. If the Secretary happened to have (as has happened) a lot of private busi- ness to attend to, rents to look af- ter, etc., be bad a clerk paid by Uncie Sam assigned him for that special work, to say nothing of a stenographer. whose time is half occupied with the Secretary’s or his family’s private affairs. I knowa high officer of Congress who kept one or two clerks the year round to get political information for himself. The Treasury paid for the clerks, while the a- dexes, documents, papers, clippings, etc., most perjectiy arranged and of the most valuable character for political reference, went to enrich the library of the official. The record, running through several years, is worth thousands of dollars. It you go to dine with a judge, or a secre- ) tary, an assistant secretary, or an assistant anytbing, or a Senator, behind your chair you will probably find a waiter, paid for by the Government, as & messenger or a la- burer.
