From the If. Y Tribune.
The Civil Teinireof-Oflke bill accomplishes
one reform. It 1b that the teunre ol publio
oflice shall be measured hj the r-ltiuioncy of tue
Officer. It prevttuts a resident like Mr.
Johnson from dUiaiSflng men who hare spuut
years in the service of the (Joveruuwnt, urely
to gratify A polit'oal paaiou. But while the
power of removal is so striutly guarded, it
eeems that there should alao be quali ligations
as to the power of appumtmeut. The high
Officers of the Government nhould depend
simply npon the. expiensiou of KxMcuiive
pleasure. The l'residnut must select his ad
visers aud principal aSMiitauU in all depart
tneuts from his own kuowleilgo of thir charaa
ter, aud not from auy wriiteu qnalificatioui.
l!ut in all the departments of the (iuveruineut
there should be as much care taken iu unking
appointments as there is iu the army aud the
navy. With very few exception, we take
our military aud naval oilwwrs from schools
VfLeie they are carefully educated at the
Government expense; aud during the war we
found our account iu it. It rej tires ability
and experience to faithfully perform the Ber
Tices jequired iu other department of thq
Govprumwnt, and we trust to see a bill pvsed
which will enable the l'rexidnut to seleot for
foreign representative?, clerks iu Depart
meutt, postmasters, aud a luultilude ot ap
pointments where bktll aud education are
rtquiitd, men who have been properly
trained, and whoee only claim will be thir
raerit. Any lneasuie which will secure this
principle, namely, personal etii iiency a the

Have the Committee engaged in investiga
ting frauds in the recent election obtaiued any
clue to the inyhtniions partnership established
between Tweed, Sweeny, 4aud Barnard,
Sachems of Tammany Hall, ou the one haud,
and Jay Gould, Tweed, and Seeuy, control
ling ' Directors of the Erie Rtilroad, on the
other ? Is is true that the Erie Company,
through the influence of Directors S-veeny
and Tweed, "located" fourteen thousaud
"voters" armed with J udj; Barnard's natu
ralization papers alorii the line of the Erie
road, to carry New Voik for Hoffman, while
by the same agency lour thousaud votes were
added to the Democratic strength, in New
Jersey f And if this be true, does it form auy
reason why Jadge Barnard issuoa injunctions
restraining certain Erie stockholders from
suing or applying to any Courts or Judges
for redress against alleged fraudulent over-,
issues of Erie stock by Jay Gould, Tweed,
Sweeny & Co. f Aud if these facts have an
umbilical connection, is there any assignable
limit to the amount of new stock which Jay
Gould may issue, the extent t whiuh he may
impoverish all stockholders not in his "ring,"
or the profits -which he may divide between
hiuueli and his cnnfedeiates Aud if there is
no limit to the fortune he can thus amass, is
it to be supposed that he does not share his
prosperity with those whose judicial aid
rendeis him so prosperous? And if not,

From the N. Y. Times.
We do not propose to advise General Grant
how to ruaLe appointments to the forty tUou
sard (jTioet he will be expected to fill as soou
as he becomes President, partly roaase he
has not a.-ked our advice, from which we infer
that he does not want it, aud partly because
we do not suppose he would take it evu if we
should thrust it upon him. But we venture
to submit to our leaders a few suggestions ou
the sul ject, so that they may not be takeu by
surprise if they should find tnetn substantially
aoted on when the administration passes into
General Grant's hands.
I. All the offices of the country are filled
now. Where they prove to be well filled
where the new l'lesident finds that the in
cumbents are lionet. t, taithful, aud efficient
officers, and not offensively obnoxious as poli
ticiansit strikes us that it would be wise
to let tLem alone. The country will thus have
the benefit of the experience they have ac
quired in the discharge of their duties, aud
the Treasury will be saved from the new
Bwarui of hungry oflice-seekers who are await
ing their turn.
II. The l'resident will Had himself aur
ronndtd by an aimy of persous who will
claim the light of telling him whom he may
appoint and whom he must not. At the head
of the host will be the members of Coogre.is,
vsho will begin by demanding, as their riyhti,
this control of his appointments. It would
be wife, we think, for the new President to
begin by denying this right ;i tuto, aud by re
fusing, in the lnottt positive manner, thus to'
Surrender the appointing power into o'-her
hands.
This claim of Congressmen to diotate the
President's appointees, each for Lis own dis
trict, is comparatively modem; but it has
come to be very peremptory aud absolute.
No oue thing, probably, decided strmauy votes
in the House iu favor of iiupeachui-ut as 1're
AideEt Jobuoon's refusal to permit members
to maku his appoioim-nts for biiu. That is
the way in which every member expects to
pay oil his ol. ligations to those who were most
active, devoteil, and elective iu pei-uriug his
election. Tim Presidential patronage is as
sumed to be the common bto :k ou wuioh the
xnt mbei 8 oi Congress are. to draw for the pay
ment, ol their political lbts; iheir checks oa
that bank are the "legal teuder" of the coun
try. It Ktiikea ns it would Ve well for the
Pew President to dispel that delation, aui to
give Congress ard the country to undrsn l
that the offices of the couotry are pai'U of tin
machinery by which the executive tulflls his
oath to enforce the laws and carry ou the
Government. His duty aud his interest atik-j
require that none but good men should he
appointed to nil them.
III. Cunt; re&f men may naturally be sup
posod to know moie about the character aui
litnens of applicants and c itnli l.tte-i Ut oflioe
in their respective, districts than the President
can; and he may, wi'h it rent tdvaiitak!e, there.
fore, call upon theui to tell him what they
know about them. Upon the information
Which he luav lie able thus to gV.her from
members ot Congress and others he can, ill
the exercise ot his osvu jmlti men', be ablet.)
mske good ftppoHituiMUih; it should b hu
judgment, and not ihtir withe. hicli controls
the selection, ror a member of Ooogress to
tell the l'lesident una a nau otwht to be ao
pointed, what are his qnaV.fWtium f-r the
place, is to render the President a service; but
for him to demand au appointment tu order t
pay off a political obligatioupf bU own, an 1
to tell him who must be appoint! act Uo
must not, id little short of au iiuo.nion uu l
an insult.
IV. The President may as well nulerstand
at first, what he will very soon learn, that
applications for office, backed up by a great
array of names of "prominent and Influential" I
citi.enH, are simply shams not worth the I
paper they are written on, and entitled to the
least possible influence. Nino men oat of ten,
10 whom inee papers are presented, "gu
them simply because it is easier to sign than
to explain why they oan't. There are many
men who make it a rule to sign every paper
of the kind they are anked to sign. We can
name a dozen men, Republicans, in this city,
whose names General (J rant may rely oa see
ing upon every application for oflioe that is
made from this city, as woll as upon very
many made from other quarters, it is the
most common thing in the world for mn to
"recommend" for responsible places persons ol
whom they know abiolntoly nothing what-,
ever. This is one of the principal sources of
the absolute degradation that has, of late
years, liefallen the publio service; and the
sooner it is broken up and utterly destroy 1
tbe better. The Presideut can resdily tin I
men, in every district, npou whom he oiu call
for information as to the qualifications of ap
plicants, with a reasonable certainty of get
ting intoimation that is disinterested aud
reliable.
V. We hope that General Grant will, so far
as possible, restore the practice of the earlier
and purer days of the Government, by leaving
to each head of department, in the main, the
duty aud responsibility of selecting his owu
subordinates. He will thus escape one of the
heaviest aud most repulsive of the mny
binders which the "arrogance and seltlshuess
of political partisanship have fastened ou his
office, and restore to the several depart tneuts,
a well as reclaim for himself, something of
the dignity and independence which juitly
belongs to them, and without which a proper
per'onnauce of duty is impossible.
We hope that the country iaay have the
benefit of an organized Civil Service, on a
sstem to be fixed by la, in which ability,
integrity, and efficiency shall be recognized as
tbe requisites for getting office aui as the
only thing necessary to retain it. But the
establirhment of sin h a system will m-et the
resolute hostility ot all the most corrupt ele
ments of our politics, aud will be long delayed
even if it is ever achieved. But General Grant
can, meantime, in organizing aud getting into
practical working the iuac.hiu.ery of uis,vl
tniniMration, give the country the beneli t of
all tr.e best fvatures of such a ctvu service,
and thus do more than can otherwise be done
towaids engrafting it by law upon the Govern
ment and commending it to the cordial ap
proval and support ot the country. We hope
he will do it.
'otv Scheme of the Treasury King,
From they. Y. Herat J,.
It is rumored ia Washingtou that the Trea
sury ring are concocting another and a gigaulic
scheme to fill their pockets aud plunder the
public. It is nothing lrss thau to give all the
bondholders the opportunity ot b,:Ctuuiug na
tional bankers. In other wonis, it is to ex
tend the banking privilege and the profits of a
national currency lo all who chose to combine
and deposit United Mates bonds with the
Government and receive ninety per cent, of
national bank notes for circulation, as the ex
isting national banks do at present. This pro
ject throws all the swindling operations of the
Erie Railroad Company and other companies
in the sha-'e, 'or it amounts to watering 'the
entire national debt for the beuelit of thj bond
holders. Such a scheme would seem incredi
ble did we not know the nuscrupulousuess of
the Treasury ring aud grasping cupidity of
most of the bondholders. The bondholders of
the existing national banks draw t-ix per Cjmt.
in gold in interest on their bonds, which is
equal to more than eight per cent, in cur
rency, and derive a protit of six or seven per
cent, besides on their circulation, making
about fifteen per cent, on their capital. Tuis,
too, is independent of other proiits oa thoir
banking business. O' course the other bond
holders would like to enjoy tbe same advan
tages, and may be preparing for a movemeut
in combination with the Treasury ring to
acquire them.
It is well kuown that the national bank cir
culation and privileges are very uuequally
ictributed throughout the country. New
England has by far the largest share, the
South has a small proportion, and the West,
with all its activity, vast business, aud sur
priting growth, has not more than a third of
ti.e Ea.-t in proportion to population. It is
reasonable to suppose the West and South
will soon demand an approximate equalization
of bank circulation and privileges, and it is
not likely the East will be williug to give up
a portion of them for that purpose. We need
not be surprised, then, if a desperate effort be
made to extend the national bank privileges
and to inflate the currency in the interest of
the Tieaeury ring and bondholders. The only
way to avert such a scheme, to equalize the
circulation, to break up this daugerons
national bank monopoly, and to save about
twenty-five millions a year to the Treasury, is
for Congress to repeal the act creating the
national banks, and in place of their currency
to issue legal tenders. There need be no
limit to the number of banks in auy part of
the country uting legal tenders only for their
circulation, and no danger of there being too
many, for the business nauU ofevery locality
would regulate that. The total amount of
circulation could be regulated by Congres3, so
that there should be neither inflation nor con
traction. Thus it would be equalized, uni
foim, and permeate every section accoidiug to
the wants of trfde.
Growth of Triuinpli'Uit JUseality.
Fi cti tie iV. y. World.
The Eiie Railroad war (the newest topio o'
lively interest), the whisky ring (so long a
stat.ding topic), tbe coriuptiou of State legis
latures, the enormous bribery practised ,in
elections, are some of the ex'erual symptoms
of a pieva:out moial rottenness, which, like
ugly ulcers on different parts of a human
body, demonstrate that it is full of foul dis-ttt-e.
The indignaut stream of invective with
which the piers assails tatih particular abuse,
though richly deserved, is probably as futile
as the muttering of an iucautatiou would bs
to arrest the cholera in a city tt hose streets
were reeking with tilth. Great moral diseases
can be cured oijly by the removal of their
causeB. Men ore not naturally corrupt,
but easily ooirupublo; and wise legis
lators do not willingly expose them to con
siderable temptations. A vey uii;U tariff
for example, as surely proiuces a crop of
smugglers as warm summer rains' promote the
grow th of weeds. A tax on whisky equal to
tiht times the cost of its manufacture is a
temptation to frud which average huuiau
nature will not withstand, aud 'not many offi
cers of the law will be honest and resolute
enough to stem it under so loose an aduiiuis
trauve system as ours. An irredeemable,
fluctuating currency will ' diffuse through a
community a spirit of restless speculation.
and impatience of the Slow gains of regular
trade and honest industry. Great co-orations,
having objects to accomplish that can
be allected by legislation, will always Uul
h gislaiors to accept their biibes. The chief
rujui-ite for tbe correction of moral disordsrs
is i be removal of temptations.
Tbe present hideous corruption of publio
and pecuniary morals is an inheritance from
the late war, and there is needed iff ore skill
and courage to cope with it thau were requi
site to end the war .itself. The existence of a
stupendous publio debt and the consequent
necessity for high taxation is one of the most
frnttful sonroes of corruption. Unless the
debt and finances are to be better managed
than they have been thus far, it would be better
for the publio morals to repudiate the na
tional debt, principal and interest, than to
ktep np a system which debauches the busi
ness community and the administrative ser
vice, tud oppress-s the people. It may be
said that England ha a vast debt, and never
theless escapes the reeking eorruptlon
which has grown up -here. But there
is a great difference in the circumstances
Tie interest on the debt of England is only
thiee per cent., and she mskei no attempt to
pay any part of the principal. The realized
wealth of our country (oo unsettled lauds
and unwoiked mines contribute no more to
our resources thau ojt uubo.-u population) is
far greater than ours. Moreover, her admin
istrative Fystem is more favorable to ofilsbil in
tegrity aud efficiency, her revenue officers
being appointed for their qualifications, never
removed for political causes, and subj'Mted to
a more efficient supervision. Unless we, too, cau
manage onr debt with some approximation to
wisdom, it would be better to repudiate the
whole of it at once (diraaefnl as that would
be) rather thau have our publio service aud
business circles fester with chronic moral
rottenness. -By repudiating the d-bt and
abolishing high taxes, we shoilld no d-'Uverod
from the gangs of thieves that batten upon
the public revenue. If there were no whisky
tax there would be no whisky riug, and so
of the rent. But if repudiation is too humili
ating and "disgraceful to be thought of, we
must have, first, au abandonment, (until
after the present debt is fuuded at a low ra'.e
of interest) of all attempts to reduce the
priuc'paljot the(debt; secondly, a simpli!l n
tiou ot the tax aud tariff syst ms, levying
t;xes (like Engb.nd) ou but very few articles,
so that the revenue offijers, having fewer
duties, can perforin theui with more
efficiency; and, thirdly, a complete re
form of our system of admtuistratioa aud
mode of selecting publio officers. As things
are now managed, the people are taxed to
enriidi whisky rings, with lutle benefit to the
Treasury. The tax raises the price of articles
iu the maiket, and the increase goes into the
pockets ot thore who evade it, so that, besides
supporting the public burdens, the people
bear equal or greater burdens to gorge scoun
drels with wealth. .If this villauy cannot be
got. rid of otherwise, the people will repudiate
the debt which alone mi-.k-s it possible
choosing the leat of two hi tenm evils. The
lowest potsib'e taxes aud honest collection are
the only feenrity for the bondholders.
The mismanagement and abuses of great
corporations are a very grave subject, which
deserves more attention thau it is likely to
receive while tbe public mind continues be
sotted with politicii fjua'icism. One of the
worse attendants of the negro controversy and
ths war has been the diversiou of reforming
energy from the gii a itic and port-ntious evils
that most require, it. The whole question of
the organization of great corportious, particu
larly rail.oad corporations, must be reopened
and re-examined, if the country is not to be
governed by an oligarchy of railroad aud other
orporate nabobs. They already control our
legislatures, and, in defi iuce of hnv, cheat their
own stockholders. B.-sides thesH evils, corpo
rations which command vi.s' amounts of capital
possess great ficilities tor sp- cit ation, aud the
temptation is too Rtron for their managers to
resist in speculative eras when great fortunes are
made or lost by the fluctuations of values.
We have no vaoe iuveivives to utt-sr agaiust
comnjt-rcial speculations. For aught we can
see, thoy are jnVt. as legitimate as ordinary
trade. 1 o buy as largely as possible of pro
perty whose value is expected to ris, aud seH
as speedily as jiosxible property whose value
is expected to f.-U, is just as natural aud rea
sonable as to buy aud sell ordinary goods
with the expectation of au ordinary profit.
The evil does not lie iu the fact of specu
lation, but in the circumstances that render
it possible. A short crop leads to specula
tions in gram; but it is the short ciop, not
the speculation, that constitutes the evil.
The outbreak of a war oau-es speculations iu
military supplies; but the evil is the war it-
Self. A redundant, fluctuating curreucy is a
perpetual incentive to speculation, but the evil
consists in the artificial oscillations of prices
which fnrnish the temptation. The fluctua
tions which depeud on the seasons and other
uncontrollable causes must of course be left
to their natural operation; but governments
inflict a gigantio wrong when they mulfply
the effect ot these, and introduce new aud infi
nitely more powerful causes of change by flood
ing a country with irredeemable piper money,
the greatest of all sources of fluctuation and
the most powerful incentive to speculation
It is like upsetting a fixed standard of weights
and measures aud introducing gallons tint
dilate aud contract like a blown india-rubber
bag, or yard sticks that vary from twenty
inches to fifty. In such a stato of things, he
is not the most skilful trader who is the best
judge of the supply aud consumption of
commodities, hut he who can make the
shrewdest guenses as to the variatious of tnea
suie, so as to buy goods by a long yard-slick
aud sell them ty a short one. As aoou
sennenie of our debased, uucertiia
eurieney, speculation has run riot until the
whole atmosphere ot busiurss is tainted, ihe
rascnl'ty disclosed in t e management of the
Erie road is meiely one ot th worst sped
mens of the ulcers with which the whole busi
ness of the country is thickly spotted. There
are probably as bad specuuens in the manage
ment of Uhtional banks as o: railroads; those
who possess f.u iliiies for speculation beiag, iu
multitudes ot cae?, too morally weak to resist
when they fancy great . fortunes are to be
made. Ibe cure for this evil is the r.-stora
tion of a sound currency, which would restrain
speculation within rarrow limits by giviug
comparative stability to values, aud freeing
the managers of corporaious from the inteo
tion of a poisonous atmosphere.
e have had quite enough of foolish pane
cvrics on a war which has sapped the found-
tions of publio morality, aud introduced a
state of tilings which U as disgustiug aud
uisgraceful as it .will soon be intolerable
These shallow gbinfioations of oue ot the
worst scourges of humanity having served
the pnrpoee of lifting a soldier to tbe Brest
dency, aud debasiu8 the suffrage by a great in
llux of barbarism, it is high time that they were
stopped, aud the public attention directed to
the means of stemming that foul flood of cor
ruption which is the direct consequence of a
hideous and unnecessary war unnecessary
because it could have been Rvolded if, in the
winter after Mr. Lincoln's first election, thd
Republicans would have consented to restore
the Missouri Compromise liuu and extend it to
the Pacific.
