The Offices ftTbr rilled by Mr.' Cleveland. What nfllces can tliu now President ill " How far is Ins power limited by the Civil Ssrvlco not t Tln-ao are the questions which now agitato tho minds ot all j)6litlcinns. To begin with, tho 'l'rcildcnt makes all Important appointments with the advice Mid consent of the Senate. Ho appoints tho olllcors of his own house hold j a private secretary, an assistant secretary, two executive." clorks, a stew ard, anil a messenger. The President's private secretary receives only $3,500 a year, but from itH nearness to tho Chief Execctivo tho oflloo is considered a post of some. Importance Under the present Administration Iti functions havo been agreeably discharged by Mr. Fred Phillips. Tho seven Cabinet officers or heads of departments arc tho most important oflicos in tho gift of tho President. Tho Assistant Secretaries and tho heads of various bureaus in the departments aro also appointed by lilm. Such heads of bureaus nro, for instance, in tho Treasury Department. The Treasurer of tho United States, tho Commission er of Customs, tho Commissioner of In ternal Uoventie, tl.o Register of the Treasury ; and in tho Department of tho Interior, tho Commissioner of tho General Laud Ofliee, the Commission er of Indian affairs, tho Commissioner of Pensions; tho Commissioner of Pat ents, and tho Commissioner of Educa tion. Tho President appoints tho First and Second Comptrollers and thu six Auditors in tho Treasury Department ; and in tho Department of Justice, be sides its head tho Attorney General ho appoints a Solicitor General, three Assistant Attorneys-General, four oth er Solicitors, and an Examiner of Claims. The Department of Agriculture is of comparatively recent creation, and its head, a Commissioner, is appointed by tho President; but ho has no scat in the Cabinet. Tho Federal Judges, unless they re sign or aro impeached, hold oflico for life. It, therefore, may fall to tho lot of a President to appoint many or few, as vacancies may chance to occur. In tho Supremo Court of tho United States, during tho courso of Mr. Clove land's Administration, three or four of Justices will becomo eligible to retiro went should they so desiro ; but thero is no enforced superanuation in that court. Tho District Attorneys and Marshals for tho various Federal dis tricts into which the Union is divided, are appointed by tha President, A United States District attorney is ap pointed for four years, or until tho Senate shall approve his successor ; so, for instance, in this district, as soon as our friend Mr. Eliliu Root's successor shall bo named by Mr. Cleveland, and tho nomination ehall receive tho confir mation of tho Senate, a new District Attorney will bo installed. In the diplomatic and consular ser vice thero will, in all probability, bo a complete change, for all such appoint ments, from envoys extraorpinary to consuls and interpreters, aro in tho gift of the incoming Executive. Some offi ces of importance connected with tho public lauds will bo filled by Mr. Cluveland. Thus, ho can appoint a Surveyor-General each for Louisiana, Florida, Minnesota, Kansas, California, Nevada, Oregon, Nebraska and Iowa, Dakota, Colorado, New Mexico, Idaho, Washington, Montana, Utah, Wyo ming, Arizoua, and also a Register of tho Land Office for each land district, such districts only existing whero one hundred thousand acres of Government land remains unsold. Thousands of persons aro employed in the departments at Washington, but tho great mass of Federal officials aro employed either in the collection of customs or duties or in the postal ser vice. It is said that thero aro some fifty thousand Postmasters in tho Uni ted States, and that about as itiEtiv in dividuals aro officers of the custpms or the internal Revenue. Tho Postmas ters in our cities, the Collectors, Naval Officers, Surveyors, aiul Appraisers in in our gre.t ports of entry hold places of icmuneralivo salary, which are ea gerly sought at tho heginniug of every new Administration. All Postmasters, except thoso of tho fourth and fifth class, all Collectors of tho customs and of internal revenue, and all the other principal officers of customs are ap pointed by the President. Tho Civil Service act has nothing to do with them. And now that wo havo seen what offices Mr. Cleveland can fill, lot us consider how. he is restricted by tho Civil Service act. It provides for tho classification of certain clerks employed in the departments, in tho enstoms, or in tho Post offices, and for thu exami nations of applicants for such offices. It is claimed that under its existing in terpretation about fourteen thousand clerks tho most important of whom receive iji.auu per annum are secure in their tt-uuto of office, and cannot be nffected by a change of AdmiiiHtra tiou. Accepting this statement as cor rect, the fact remains that the great army of officeholders now intrenched throughout tho United States can be turned out next March, and their pla ces can be filled either by tho Presi dent himself or by thoso who will owe their own offices to him. Tkero are about fourteen thousand officeholder) whom tho Civil Servico act makes in dependent of the President's power, but about ninety thousand still remain subject to it. A7. Y. Hun. Sharp-Sighted Indians. One of tho most curious traits of the Ayan Indiaus is their power of seeinjj thu motion of fish in water. Tho Yu kon is very muddy, so much so that when an ordinary pint cup is filled with it nothing can bo seen until the sedi ment has settled. The water is ten to twelve feet deep and the river wide. Yet when a colitary salmon comes up this river, its coming is notified, its po sition identified, and it is often caught in a hand-net. Some person, generally un old squaw, is on the lookout in front of tho huts on tho bank. At her call a iiiau runs to thu beach, picks up lib canoe, paddle, and net, guided at lirsi chiefly by tho advico of tho Indian who gather on tho shore, but as ho ap proaohs relying more on himself putt tho canoe into tho proper position, and while he icgulatcs its movements wit! his left hand, ho plunges tho net to tin bottom with tho right. When it is remembered that tin mouth of tho net has au area of onh about two square feet, tho power t catch ti solitary salmon by thrusting it directly into its course, seems most mi lactilous. No white man could sea anj evidence of tho motion of thu fish, yei thu natives assert that motion is com inunicatcd from tho bottom to tin toj. Out of seven attempts watched b Lieut. Sohvratkn, two were successful, though tho fish were swimming fron 2G0 to .100 yards from tho bank, Sev oral iiuudrod ishes caught in this wa wero in their houses and on their seal foldings. Science.

HeraM Tho Jterald lays tho following statcniont before its" rerdcrs with tho assuranco that it is undoubtedly true in every particular. Tho writer is a well and widely known citizen and his caso is familiar to n largo number of our readers. To the Mlitor of the Herald: Sun I disliko tho notoriety of a newspaper letter over my own signature, but in this mater duty compels me. As many aro aware, I wns for years in a feehlo condition, many peoph1 expecting my death at any time. In 1870 whihi at Denver, Col., I was attacked with a mystolous hemorrhage. I lost 20 lbs of llesh in three we ks. I oune home utterly broken down. My physicians said snine peculiarity of tho western climato produced tho disorder. I inndo the journey again a fow months Inter, however, without ill effects, but on mv return homo I wns prostrated with pneumonia. My left lung soon entire ty filled, and my legs and body becamo twico their natural size. I was oblig ed to sit upright in bed for several weeks, in the midst of severest agony, with my arms over my head. I was in constant fear of suffocation. Many a night 1 had deadly sinking spells. When thu pneumonia abated tho hem orrhages returned. My legs were twist ed with cramps, skin was very hot and dry, my blood circulated iinovenly, my mouth was parched, I wns tormented with the pains of gravel and mucus in my fluids, and my back ached excruci atingly. I did not know what was my espec ial disorder, but in April, 1881, a coun cil of live of tho best physicians of Syracuse said I could not possibly re cover. They advised mo to try tho virtues of a certain mineral spring. With pitiful helplessness I dragged myself to tho cars, but was obliged to stop over at Worcester, Mass. There I was again thoroughly examined by fifteen physicians who concurred that I was incurable. Nevertheless, I con tinued my journey to the springs, re mained thero several weeks, but re turned homo without benefit or hope. My disorder was for years sappingl and mining my constitution beforo thu final attack was made. First I had chills and fover, then severo and pro tracted cold, then restlessness at night, nervous irirtnbility by day, constantly distressing backache, unusual disposi tion to catarrh, pain in tqo chest, tor pid liver, headache and dull sensation in the base of the brain. For five years painful 'rheumatic pains affected my knee. Stomach and bowel derangements came in their turn, with an occasional fluttering of my heart, and au inability to draw a long breath j quick fatigue followed niuoh conversation ; irregularity of appetite succeeded. Fitful pains of a neuralgic order flitted about my body, and after a day of hard work, my arms would feel numb, so I ofton had fears of par alysis. So terrible at times did my back and nrms acho that at the close of work I would lio on my couch for an hour with arms upraised in vain at tempt for relief. After a night of restlessness and hallucinations, I would awake in tho morning with such a dis tressing headache that I could not nriso until 1 had drunk a cup of strong cof fee or tea. Tho disease which had fastened on me during all these jears my physi cians said was bright's disease of the kidneys, pronounced by every medical authority to bo incurable. Having ex hausted all authorized remedies, I dis missed my medical attendants and be gan the use of vVarner's safe cure in December, 1881. I faithfully perse vered for two and one-half years, and it has saved my lifo and restored my health, when tteenty of the most com petent physicians said I could not re- couer. 1 havo taken ovei U00 bottle-, following all diet rules ami directions.

The United States Land nnd Invest ment Company of New York city has purchased the King's Cattle ranch in Texas for $G,.00,000. Among thoso interested in tho purchase aro Henry A. Herbert j who owns tho Lakes of Killarney nnd about 00,000 acres of land in Irelnnd, whose income from Ids estate has boon reduced under the Land act from 12,000 to 3000 ; tho Earl nf Aylesford, who recently sold his es tate in England for 8800,000 and is al ready the owner of 2j,000 acres in Texas ; John 1J. Benton, Edward liverctt, ol Boston, and. John Hancock, member of Congress from Texas. Cap- lain King, the tormer owner of the larm, is HO years old ; he is from Tex ts, and has lived there all his life. lie went into slock raising when a young man on a small scale and from tho sale if tho increase of his stock has pur chased hind from timo to time until he iwned thu lamest ranch in America. His name was at one time a terror to w tie thieves, and when the Mexican raiders flocked across tho Rio Grande Captain King, nt the head of au army of cowboys, would meet and givo them a warm reception. It is said that he hung over eighty cnttlo thieves. Thu ranch is divided into two sec tions, tho first being tho Santa Gortrti dis in Nueces county, containing 300,. 000 acres, where Mr. Kino; lived in iu gal styht It is entirely fenced in, thu posts used being of mosquite wood, which when smoked is ns hard as iron md will last lougei. Upon it nro twenty-nine improved buildings, store houses, barns and houses for employ ees. The stock includes (10,000 improv d cattle, 10,000 horses, 200 mules and 10,000 improved shoop, tho wool of which pays all tho running expenses of ho ranches. Tho section is thu San Juan do Carricitos Ranch in Cameron county, and contains 500,000 acres. It is stocked with 20,000 improved cattle, 0000 blooded horses, 2000 sheep and 300 mules. This ranch is bounded orinoipally by water which forms a natural barrior to tho escape of stock, I'lio ranch was sold conditionally in London two years ago for $0,500,000 to an English syndicate, but in conse quence of difficulties that aroso botweon King nud tho syndicate thu sale fell hroimh. Last year the Marquis Do Leurville, representing n French syn licatc, tried to puiohasu tho ranch, lint ICIrnr said i "I will novor sell to a Frenchman." Hi object in selling it iow is to, whilo living, paitition his ast estate and divide the proceeds among his five children. THE COLUMBIAN AND Oxen and Mules. Fifty years ago tho ox. oven her.- In Pennsylvania, wns tu be seen upon al most every farm. People blowed with then), did nil their hauling with them, and with thu exception of a horse for driving, or perhaps two for going to the city markets, the horso had to take a back seat. Aftei that dato the horse began to supercede tho ox to a certain ex tent, but more and more each year. Sub sequently the mule began to make Its appuaranco mid to steadily take the place of thu horse, until it was believed that in a littlo while tho only horso on a farm would bo one kept for family driving. It mint bo admitted that the milio Is a very strong iinimul, and will live and grow fat on food that a horso would succumb to and perhaps sicken on. lie will live longer ns well ns work hardei, and as a general thing his first oust is less than tho first cost ol a horse. They are bright and easily taught, and In deed will do many things that are qulto incomprehensible to" tho horso. And as for tfie oxen, they are patient, stronir, cndiiiing ami moderate feeders, and after they get in years they can bo fatted and sold for tho shambles, nnd tnkes its rank among the best meat in the market. These arguments in behnll of the ox and thu mule wu have often read, and know of many people who havo been convinced by them nnd procured for their tnrnis one or both, nnd were well satisfied with them. Novel theless, in timo they had both disappeared from perhaps neighboring estate, and the old, discarded horso has mnde its reap pearance and taken their places. It is soon found out that the horse can do all that both tho others can do in a general sense, and a great deal more in most other things ; and where there is n general routine of work to bo done, one thing that can do nil or the most of them well enough, is better than a great number of things each well adapted to its particular purpose. And this is tho caso with, tho horse. A dozen years ago, we, may repeat, the mnlo was in great favor, and it looked as if it was to supplant the horso almost entirely. But mice then the horso has gradually but steadily regain ed Us most favored position, and to tho samo extent the mulo has been rele gated to its less conspicuous place And so we believo it will continue to go on. The horse is altogether indispensa bio ; and however necessary or con venient it may bo to use a team of mules for certain purposes, wo regard it as qnito out of tho question that thu timo lias yet come, or beliovo that it will ever come, when tho horso can be set aside, and its services can bo dis pensed with for that of any other work ing animal. Germantoien Telegraph. The Farmer's Hog. The different breeders of hoqs havo their fast friends, nnd no doubt they each have what their friends admire in them, but the averago feeder who does not caro to raise pigs to sell for breeding purposes, should strive to get a hog that will make him the most money for tho feed put into it. In the first place a hog should have a good coat of hair ; not bristles, but hair. A black hog will not get scurvy on his back ; the sun will not blister him. A hog should have a good constitution, with round sprung rib and good girth Around tho heart, short neck and head well put on, short face and uose, tail put on not way up on his back nor yet too low down, hams round and well filled, not too sluggish disposition nor yet too wild. By tho purchase of the right kind of a malu pig the feeder can raise just such pins as lie wants to feed, and have much more profitable and healthy animals than ho can buy. The brood Sows can be run on e.lo ' ver pasture in summer at a vurv littlo expense, anil if provided with some i good clover hay iu winter ilwillie-j duce their feed bills. Not enouu'h at tention is paid to providing good pas tures for pigs, they are generally kept in a barren lot with a generous sized mud-hole in it, iu which the water is so foul that just the smell of it is sick ening let alone having to drink it. As tor a change ot pasture, it is never thought of, on account of fencing it. Tho senslblo wnv to provide for them is to have enough land devoted to their uso so the pigs can have a good sweet pasture of clover all tho time. Do not keep them on the same old poisoned ground for ten years, but when the grass gets run out plow it and take oil u couple of crops ; then re-seed to clover, and then let their hogships take fresh comfort, health fat from the now fresh ground and grass. This ground will then supply the living for the pigs, whilo in tho other way of doing the pig lot is full ot weeds, bare ot grass, and tho baro ground covered with mud and Ko wallows.
