    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.

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.
I nave hitherto retrained trom imb-
lishing details of my case. becauo I
wish to secure permanent effects beforo
stating results, but as I have been
comparatively a well man fur tho hist
two years and able to attend to my
business daily, wholly through the
preparation named, I feel that I ought
to spread its merits beforo the world.

Furohase of an Immense Tannin Texas
Who Form the Syndioate.
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. Jireeders Journal.
