Tho houso 2,009 Chestnut street,
which at the close of the war was pur
chased by the citizens of Philadelphia
and presented to General Grant with

til a short time ago by the general, but
which was raauo over to William a,
Vanderbilt in a security for a loan ad
vanced to urant ifc Ward, and which
went in tho financial crash which over'
took that firm some months ago, was
sold at auction Tuesday by M, Thomas

zens of Philadelphia 832,000. It was
knocked dowr for 22,000 to Frank
K. Hess, of 205 South Sixth street.
Tho lot has a frontago on Chestnut

Col. L. Markbreit, Assistant United
States Treasurer at Cincinnati, on Sun
day, removed tho coin aud currency in
his caru from the old Post Qlb'co build'
ing to tho nojv quarters on tho second
iloor of tho new Government building,
There was some apprehension that the
removal might bo attended with dan
ger of robbery, but tho utmost caro
was taken to provent loss. Tho con
tract for tho removal was given to the
Adams Express Company, and was ex
ecuted under the personal supervision
of tho Assistant Treasurer and his offi
cers. Tno work began at 8 a. ni.( and
was completed at 4 p. m. Ono million
dollars in silver required ten wagon
loads. Tho gold was less troublesome,
and the paper money, although greater
in volume than all the rest, was carried,
in a largo trunk or box in,, one; wagou,
A stronrr force of poliuo kept people
away from tho loading and unloading
points, and armed men rode on all the
wagons. It is said that tlie express
company was paid $bUU for tho work.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Malcolm Hay said that in his judgment
the Postmasters and others subject to
removal should bo divided into two
clarses this first oilenstvo partisans,
and the second, neglecting to givo at
tention to duties. Ho then iravo his
definition of an "offensivo partisan."
It was expected that every postmaster
should keep his ofiico in a convenient
place lor the public, in good condition,
clean, and in all respects a place where
pcoplu of all kinds could go without bo
lug subjected to annoyance. If, on the
contrary, a Postmaster should make his
IVt Oilleo tho hoadquaiters of loafers
to congregate, and in other ways of
fend tho peoplo who galled thero for
their mail, such a man could bo prop
erly called an offensive partisan and a
fit subject for removal. The noxt class
cinbiactd tho Postmasters who left
their offices to attend political meet
ings and participate iu campaigns to
the extent of neglecting their duties.
They ooplil not, properly speaking, bo
calM offensive partisans, but thfy
merited dism!'.! just thosamo.
Tho monument to Frederick Lauor,
the deceased brewer of Reading, tho
gift of tho United , Stales Drawers'
Congress to tho city of Reading, was
unveiled in tho City Park of Reading,
on Saturday. Tho monument is six

Constitutional Amendment-
Two years ago Sonator Humes read
in his place an amendment to section
five, arlielo five of tho constitution.
This section says "whenever a county
shall contain 40,000 inhabitants it shall
constitute a scparato judicial district,
and, shall elect ono judgo learned in tho
law." It then provides for the elec
tion of additional judges and the form
ing of ,othcr counties into convenient
singlo districts or attaching them to
contiguous districts Senator Humes'
amendment provided that "whenever
a county shall havo 00,000 inhabitants
it shall constitute a scparato judicial
district."
This session ho again introduced
his amendment, still farther modifying
tho language with the assistance of
Senator Wolvcrton, so as to read "when
ever a county shall havo 00.000 inhabi
tants it may constitute a Beparato judi
cial districtand forming all counties
that do not constitute separato districts
into separate convenient districts. This
amendment finally passed the Senate
last Thursday and is now in tho houso
comraitte on constitutional reform,
the chairman of which, Mr. Lowrv, I?
its warm; friend. The indication "there
fore is that it will pass the house.
To show the necessity , of the amend i
merit Senator Humes obtained from
most of tlio counties tho number of
days their courts, "civil, criminal, jury
and argument"-were in sessiou during
the year 1884. From this it appears
that many judicial districts held court
less than one hundred days and .quite
a number from sixty, to eighty days;
Tho question of cost alone should, have
no, weight as, against tho proper admin
istration of justice, but when thero is
(Treat .increase, in tho cost of tho judi
cial, system, and the judicial, business
is less, than it was ten years ago, neces
sity demands a charge. Experience
teaches that judicial districts should
bp .formed on business principles and
not upon population. Senator Humes'
amendment places it in tho power of
the legistaturo to make judicial apport
ionments on a business basis and the
interests of tho people as well as tho
judiciary demand its adoption by the
legislature, arm iia ruuucuuuii uy uiu
people. Patriot.
WASHINGTON LETTEB.
(From our Regular Correspondent.)
Washington, May 25, 1885.
To those who expected a grand and
startling transformation scene as soon
as Mr. Cleveland was fairly in office,
the present condition of things.very
disappointing. But to those wll J Know
that startling transformation is not
necessarily reformation, and that tho
latter can bo attained only through
careful and well considered action,
there is much for encouragement. Tho
magnitude of the wholesalo changes
that have taken place is known best by
those who will never tell it. All tho
Republican clerks in all the, Depart
moots, are working better and accom
pushing more, drinking less, paying
their
old debts
and
enioyine
better
health than ever before. They aro do
ing more work becauso tho Secretaries
ot tho diirerent iJepartments have civ
en them to understand that idle clerks
will bo discharged, and have emphasiz
cd their meaning by turning some idlers
out. Their improved health is attribu
table to the, fact that orders have gono
cut that absence on account of sickness
will bo deducted from the 30 days sum
mer vacation that has been allowed Gov
ernment clerks. This order has had
such a healthy effect that absence from
alleged sickness has declined fully one
hundred per cent. Indebtedness and
drunkenness havu declined becauso it
is understood that decency, competen
cy and houesty will bo insisted upon
by this Democratic Administration.
These reforms aro best known by the
Republican clerks themselves but they
aro a kind pf reform that reflect but
little glory, upon them or their party.
I vpnluro to predict that iu about niuo
months from r.ow, when tho work of
tho first year of tho new administration
oan bo .reviewed, a very favorable
showing will bo made aud it will be
found that not only a largor amount of
work has been done, but that it has
been accomplished moro economically
and with a smaller force. In a month
from now it is believed that very impor
tant changes, will have been made. It
has been found impracticable to make
these changes as rapidly as was desired
owitig 'parUy, to tho lack of acquaint
ance of Mr. Cleveland and his Cabinet
with the routine and tho pcrsonel of the
different .bureaus, and partly to the
conflicting claims of, the many appli
cants for office. But the knowledge to
intelligent action is beiug rapidly no
quircdnud it is reported that ox tenia ve
changos will be made about tho 30th
of June.
No Department of tho Government
has been worso mismanaged than that
of Agriculture. Tho lata Commissioner
spent his time from Juno to November
making speeches for Blaine and tho
now Commissioner appointed by Pros
ident Cleveland found that $38 was tho
unexpended balanoo left him, for carry
ing on the Department for Unco months,
or until the appropriations of tho next
fisoal year, shall become available.
How this state of a (Talis has bocn
brbaght about Is easy to soc. Thero Is
ro doubt that lands havo been largely
UBcd io promote tho election of tho lto
publican candidate for tho Presidency.
For tho purposo of carrying favor and
gaining votes, tho salaries ot employes
in various Btatis havo been largely in
creased. Thus, in ono instance, a man
in the statistical department out in
Kansas had his salary raised from $800
to S2UUU, while his otuct in Itio Jin-
reau at Washington only gets $1,500.
This wholesalo distribution of tho
itinds of tho departtnont for political
iiurposcs soon ran away with the at
propriatlon, and to this as much as any
other causo tho bankrupt condition of
the Agricultural Uiircau is to bo attrib
uted. Tho original intent of Congress
in appropriating monoy for tho distri
bution, of seeds was to buy rare grains
boyond tho reach of ordinary agricul
turists aud so distribute them as to im
prove the character of our crop. In
stead of this, however, tho recent Com-
miss.oner bottclit tor free distribution
ordinary seeds to bo found in every
seed .store in tho country. The truo
character of theso common seeds was
hidden under high sounding names and
they wero sent by Congressmen broad
cast throughout their districts for the
purposo of making votes. I or tho last
fivo year tho bureau has not introduced
a smglo now grain ot any value, nor
has it done ono thine to aid tho true
interests of agriculture.
THE BTJUKALEW8.
Mhssks. Editors :
Dear Sirs: Excuso mo for present
ing a letter' mixed with history, remin
iscences and personalities. The oppor
tunity presented itself and wi Improved
It. If exceptions should bo taken to it,
protect us from all harm. In the south
eastern portion of Fishinccrcok town
ship, Columbia county, a little way
back from the JNorth Mountain, along
side the Luzerne county lino and ex
tending to tho old Berwick turnpike
was a timber tract ot several hundred
acres, or, what might bo termed a very
denso forest of toworing pines of ex
quisite beauty and quality, which seem-
od to contain an inexhaustible supply
of lumber. Tho owner, or owners, al
ways lumbering, drew from tho forest
with a studied economy, and with a
judicious view for the best preserva
tion ot the timber. A sawmill run oy
water power located on bio: Pino Creek
did its yearly work from tirao immem
orial during water supply times on the
manufacture of lumber with telling ef
fect. It is no longer a forest 'that could
defy tho lumberman's axo with impun
ity. Thero aro yet many pines, but
wonderfully thinned out, but not cull
ed. That has not been part of tho pro
gramme. This tract was owned by
John M. Buckalew, long since dead,
but nevertheless still owned by tho sur
viving heirs, viz: William (deceased's)
heirs, Perry, Charles R., John M.; well
Wo can not positively say, but1 think
Mahalah, wife of B. C. Hess. Thd
Buekalow family was n remarkable
one. The father, a powerful man of
constitution aud will, was slow of
speech, but every word was coined in
to opinion that' could neither bo rotut
cd nor gainsayed. The'old'H-enerable
neighbor wo will remember to our dy
ing day. William was a surveyor and
the counterpart of his father' iu inte
grity and character, though not in con
stitution and'fatiguo enduring powers,
no had a turning lamp also run by
water power located 'on tho same
stream and residing only across thd
bridgo from tho homestead. Perry is
a farmer and an excellent citizen whoso
integrity has never been questioned,
and as candid in every expression as
though it wero gospel truth. His phy
siquo is moro delicate than that of his
brothers. John M. owns tho home
Btcad, and is1 counseled much in conse
quence of his business qualifications
and legal knowledge gained by closo
application and study. Ho has a large
library and insatiablu thirst for read
ing. Alabalab, moro properly iNlrs,
Hess resides at Van Camp, in a bcauti
ful rural home, amuses herself very
much with her pet bird of tho parrot
kind, which her brother brought from
South America and presented it to her
on his return home, when Minister at
Eqaedor, under Buchanan's adminis
tration. The bird has long since gono
blind and is no less than twenty-seven
years old. It has such a powerful
beak that it can therewith crack wal
nuts. It has a beautiful plumage, aud
whilo it can ramble all over a tree, yet
it never could fly on account of tho un
proportionate contrast between its body
and wings. Wo doubt whether Mrs.
Hess would cxchatigo it for a farm.
Mrs. Hess is a woman of dignity and
character, and portrays a noble bearing.
Charles H. the most distinguished per
sonage in tho county and perhaps iu
tho state, second to none in ability and
intellect, and devoted to his profession
aid renowned in its practice, has had
a very brilliant and successful career,
with n probability of reachinp; the
highest climax attainable in tho na
lion's honor a result devoutly hoped
for bv all his friends. Tho following
anecdote wo have frequently heard re
lated, but for its truthfulness wo. can
not vouch. That when u small boy
his father set him to hoeing corn, and
when asked how many rows ho had
hoed, said he could not tell, but told
how mnnv hills thero wero in tho field,
Upon thU startling development of
mathematical comparisons tho father
decided that it paid better to send the
boy to school than to keep him at the
farm. If this anecdote is truo it only
further proves the wisdom and pru
denco so characteristic of tho father,
iu shaping tho future destiny of his
sou. The Buekalow family is an hon
ored and a distinguished ono tnough
all are republican except Charles It.
Mauv laughable anecdotes wo could
I elate as told by John M. with whom
wo avo moro intimately acquainted than
with auy other member ot the family.
Excuse me. I should say.Captain John
51. Buekalow, if you please. X. Y. Z.
Overhauling the Republican Risoals,
In ordering a searching iuquiry iuto
tho history ol tho so-called repairs up
on tho third-rato man-of-war Mohican,
Secretary Whitney begins a task en
tirely in tho intoroH of truth and just
ice We believe that lie is tho man to
carry through tho work.
The wooden ship Mohican, of 19,000
tons displacement, was otdcrcd to tho
Mare Island Navy Yard in 1875 for
repairs and reconstuction upon the
Rohbcrsonlan plan. This vessal was
then about fourteen yoars old It had
oriinunllv cost 8333.000 to build her.
During the six yean immediately pre
ceding tho time wheu Secor Robber
sou took tho Mohican in hand, more
than $237,000 had been expended in
repairs on her hull, and moro than
$537,000 on her boilers and machin
ery. This ought to havo loft tho ship
iu fair condition, to say tho least ; but
Robber-ion took her out of commission
and scut her to Marc Island to bo over
hanlud anew. Tho process has been
I'ting on for thirteen years under
Robbcrson nnd his successors of tho.
same dynasty. Tho Mohican is about
ready to go to sea, whoro sho will bo
of tno slightest value either for de-
t rr ' . -1
iuhbivu or oueiisivu uuvui wunnn.-.
This, in brief, Is tho history of n
ship to whoso case The Sun has re
peatedly called tho attention of the
public.
Secretary Whitney says that tho
aggragalo amount of money expended
on tho Mohican stneo sho has been
docked in 1876 is nearly $900,000,
nnd that more than two-thirds of this
amount has been spent during tho ad
ministration of his cheerful prcdeccsS'
or, the lion. William X'j. unanaicr,
From Mr. Whitney's stnlemont and
the hVures alroadv on record. It is
.easy to comptito tho total cost of tho
Mohican as sho stands .to-day:
Original cost ot machinery ..$.133,0)0
Itepalrs, Bureau ot Construction, previous
to 1872 M'.OJO
Repairs, Bureau ot Steam Engineering pre-
vIouitolSTS. s.1,000
llurcau ot Equipment previous to 187t 128,0.'O
llopalrsslnco 1872 ana to date oo,ooo
Total tor tho .Mohican $1,010,00)
Mr. Whitney says that a new Bhlp
of tho samo character and class could
have been built for 8250,000.
Startling as this cxposuro of dis
honesty extravagance nnd systematio
plundering nppears, tho Mohican is
only a spcotman case. not aoout
fifteen vcars wo havo been engaged in
exhibiting tho fruits of Robbersonism
in the .Navy JJcpartmcnt. as wo nave
shown time aud time again, the pro
cess ot rigid and impartial investi
gation which the first honest and fear
less Secretary of tho Navy sinco 1809
proposes to apply to the Mohican,
would reveal in tho case of almost
every other vessel of tho United Stales,
wooden or iron clad, the samo enor
mous disproportion between the amount
of monoy exponded and tho results
obtained for tho expenditure.
Mr. Whitney Is going to work in
tho right way. Every honest citizen
is with him. Lot tho wholo infamous
record of Repuplioan rascality in tho
Navy Department bo uncovered to tho
light of day. K 'Y. Sun.
