Xlun. Garfield indignantly denies
that she intends to get married.
Gen. Grant was still living vester
day morning, bat the end is rapidly ap
proaching. TnE Pricce of Wales left London for
Ireland on Tuesday lajt. He may have
a go-x deal of fun, but bis tour will not
produce any visible political effect.
A Harrisburo correspondent of the
I'hiUde!pbia Timet in noting the peculi
arities of the members of the House,
says that by actual observation and
count, sixty-two eat with their knives
arid cut the butter with them five nev
er b'.ack their boots most of them drink
a great majority either smoke or chew
tobacco very few play cards, but all
draw their pay with diligence and regu
larity. Each branch contains one fop.
Smith, of Philadelphia, and Snodgrass,
of Fittsburg, besides several cranks.
Ben Perlet Poore, the veteran
Washington coi respondent, who is fa
miliar with the course of political events
at the national capital for the last half
century, says : "Xever during the fifty
odd years that I have personally known
Washington and the successive admin
istrations, have I seen a new President
take the helm so promptly and so effi
ciently as the 'man of destiny' from
Buffalo has. Geueral Jackson had to
reconstruct his Cabinet before he was
maer of the situation as President
Cleveland already is.
A letter purporting to have been
written by Jefferson Davis to Geueral
Grant was extensively published a few
days ago in the northern press, although
It bore upon it face, and especially in
its cocci uding sentence, the ear marks
of b u nplJ forgery. Now that the for
ger :.hs been eiposed, the editors who
wer strapped by it are creeping out
of their holes with the declaration that
all the time they had strong doubts of
Its au'.bentlcity. Jeff Davis may be
anything that a man sees proper to say
of him.but when he undertakes to Indite
a letter he was never known to write
himself down an ass.
At a meet ing of Confederate veterans
of the Louisiana Division of the
Army of the Tennessee, held at New
Orleans on Tuesday last, William Pres
toa Johnson, son of General Albert
Sidney Johnson, who commanded the
Confedrate army at the battle of Shiloh,
offered the following resolution which
was unanimously adopted :
Resolved, That the Association of the
Arrav of the Tennessee hear with dsep ie
irret of the pain and peril now endured by
Cierjeral U. S. Grant. Twenty-three years
airo to-day oor soldiers met him on the field
of battle and found him then, as ever, a sol
dier without fear and without malignity.
In hli own suffering and the sorrow of bis
family we tender bim and them our heart
felt sympathy and ask for them the comfort
and peace which come from liitn who I not
only Lord of Hosts, but Father of us all.
President Cleveland has Inform
ed the citizens of Chicago that he will
appoi tit as Pension Agent in that city
Mrs. Mulligan, the wife of trie gallant
Colonel whose death at the siege of
Lexington, Missouri, was one of the no
table incidents of the early part of the
civil war. The office is now held by
Miss Ada Sweet. The Chicago Times
of Saturday says :
It would hardly be possible for President
Cleveland to make any appointment tbat
would be so gratifying to the Irish-Ameri
cans or me great west, or mat would corn
maid '.he approval ol o many of the sur
viving heroes of the war. There can be no
queaiion as to the abllitv of the lady
to properly perforin toe duties of tho office.
Her Intolltaeoce and tines were attested,
W!)en she was an applicant for the place some
yars aito.br hundreds of the most distin
guished men in the country.
Ex-Governor If cbrard, of Texas,
who was recent!y appointed United
States Minister to Japan, is said to
weigh 3.6 pounds. Whether this is
his true weight may be questioned, but
in point of fact be is a very large and
very heavy man, and in selecting a pro
per person to represent this big country
at Japan Mr. Cleveland hunted out the
biggest man in Texas, the State tbat
gave him the biggest majority last No
vember, the figures being, Cleveland,
223.20); Blaine, 88,355; Cleveland's
majority 134,853. Theie is a fitness of
things in Hubbard's appointment in ev
ery respect Id which it can be viewed.
It Is said too that his voice Is as terri
ble as that of ex-Governor Allen, of
Ohio, who could be almost beard in an
tP-o air speech nearly over an entire
:.; township.
ppoiotment yet made by Mr.
i-utd has fallen on a more deserving
than that of ex-Governor Thomas
In: ft
M. Waller, of Connecticut, to be Con
sul General to London. It Is an im
portant and lucrative office. The career
of Gov. Waller, who is one of the most
brilliant Democrats in the Union, has
been a most interesting one and credita
ble to him in an eminent degree. His
original flame was Armstrong and be
began life as a ragged orphan newsboy
in the city of New York. He next
drifted to sea as cabiu boy and cook's
mate, and was about shipping from New
London, Coon., to California during the
gold excitement of 184. when a prom
inent citizen of that place, the late Rob
ert I Waller, saw in him the germs of
future distinction if properly cultivated,
and adopted bim. He dropped the name
of Aruudtroug was sent oy Mr. Waller
to the New London High School stud
ied law went to war aud was honora
bly discharged oo account of a painful
trouble with his eyes. He has since
practiced his profession, served in the
Legislature, ran for Congress, and iu
J88i was elected Governor of Connecti
cut. He was a candidate last Novem
ber for re-election and although be re
ceived a plurality of 1,700 on the popu
lar vote, he was not elected, the law of
that Slate requiring a majority over all
tbe candidates. His career from his
original low condition in life to his pre- j
sent houoratle position is a conspicuous I
illustratiou of the troth of the poet's '
lying : I

Akoko the mourners over the new !
addition to the course of study in our
common choola is the ex-Rev. Nathan
iel Home, of Cambria county. AUoona
Tribune. -
What the Tribur here refera to as
"the new addition to the course of study
iu our common schools," is an act pas
sed by the present Legislature and ap
proved a few days ago by Gev. Pattlson.
It will be found in another part of our
paper. Although as provided by the
third section the law does not take ef
fect until the first Monday in June, 1886,
we publish it now in order that our
common school teachers may know what
the Legislature requires at their hands
after that time. It is not worth while
now to enter Into any discussion of the
propriety of enforcing, as this bill does,
the teaching of the anatomy of drunken
ness in the common schools. Our own
opinion of the bill is that it is a humbug
of the largest possible dimensions, and
that a little experience will prove such
to be the fact. It is strongly suspected
that a book, prepared by some enterpri
sing publisher, and soon to appear, on
" the effects of alcoholic drinks, stimu
lants and narcotics upon the human sys
tem," the words used in the act, is at
the bottom of the who!e business. This
was denied by its advocate when made
in the House, and time only can tell
how true the charge is. William Shaks
peare, in bis tragedy of Othello, puts
twenty-eight words into the mouth of
one of the players who was on the stool
of repentance after a big drank, which
describe the effects of drunkenness more
completely, truthfully and eloquently
than all the dissertations that ever have
been or ever will be written on the sub
ject. Cassio, who was Othello's Lieu
tenant, and who was recovering from a
regular Jamboree, says: "Oh, that
men should put an enemy in their
mouths, to steal away their brains.
That we should, with joy, revel, pleas
ure and applause, transform ourselves
into beasts." Could anything be taught
by a schoolmaster or a schoolmistress to
the pupils in a school, out of a scientific
book ou the effects of drunkenness, tbat
would so vividly and enduringly im
press opon their young minds the sin of
intemperance, as these words of nature's
great poet, if they were printed in large
letters, framed and bung up in every
school room in the . Commonwealth.
They are easily understood, go straight
to the point and would be more effect
ive, than an Indefinite amount of learn
ed instruction from a book on the same
subject. And then bow much cheaper
it would be I Mr. Home voted against
this new-fangled common school legis
lation, and Lence his twitting by the
Tribune, whose editor is nothing if not
always ultra on the subject of temper
ance from his standpoint. Mr. Home
is not a hypocrite, always acts from his
well settled convictions, nod bis vote
on the bill in question will be endorsed
by his constitnents.
Here is an interesting question :
Could the present Republican Lsgisla
ture of this State get along at all with
out the aid and assistance of Chris Ma
gee, the big Pittsburg Republican boss?
Our decided opinion, is that it couldn't.
Precisely who Chris Magee is, or upon
what meat this Pittsburg Caesar feeds
that be has grown so great, is something
that we don't know ; but we do know
that on nearly every Monday since the
legislature met the Pittsburg papers
announced tbat "Chris Magee went to
Harrisburg to-day." and on the follow
ing morning the Harrisburg papers told
their readers "Chris Magee arrived in
the city last night." He bossed Cam
eron's re-election to the United States
Senate was conspicuous in sniping the
Congressional and State gerrymander
schemes, by which it is proposed to
cheat the Democrats of Allegheny
ccunty out of even one member to the
lower branch of the Legislature he
engineered as well as he knew how the
anti-discrimiuation bill, and though last
not least, is trying to pass the "Bullit
bill" for the government of the city of
Philadelphia, without ever having been
asked by its people to do so. It will
thus be seen that Magee spreads him
self cut over almost the entire field of
legislation. One would suppose that
Tom Cooper in the State Senate could
run the Republican machine at Harris
burg without any outside assistance,
but that is a great mistake. If Magee
isn't useful at Harrisburg he is at least
officious, even offensively so, and takes
a band at almost every thing of the least
importance tbat comes up before the
Legislature. Great is Chris Magee the
Pittsburg boss.
TnE bill reported by the House Com
mittee of Appropriations at Harrisburg
to pay the expenses of the present Leg
islature and also to meet the expenses
of the Mate for 1885 and 18S6, is so
drawn as to cover a session of 150 days
the aggregate of the salaries of the Sen
ators being $75,000, and that of the
members of the House $301,500. Of
course it was well understood by every
man In the State who is at all familiar
with the history of the Legislature
since the salary act of 1874, that when
this Legislature met on Tuesday the
first of January it intended to remain
tiutil the limit for receiving compensa
tion had expired, which wilt b about
thefiratof June. In other words men
now go to the Legislature for the pur
pose of squeezing out of the salary act
every cent that it can possibly be made
to pay, and just as long as the taxpay
ers of the State continue to condone the
practice it will be repeated session after
session, no matter which of the two par
ties is in the majority. The bill <o
appropriates nearly one millhn of dol
lars for the payment of the different
Judges in the State for the next two
years, a half a million for each year.
This cannot be avoided because they
are all entitled to their legal salaries
and must be paid. The matter, howev
er, to be complained of is that in the
face of this enormous anuual expendi
ture for the judiciary, the Legislature
is increasing it by passing acts for addi-
tlOLal law judges in districts where
j there is no more necessity for them than
j there Is for a fifth wheel to a watrm,

THEK 10KK POSTOFFICE.
Pn-sidenr Cleveland 1 renppointed
Henry G. Pearsou postmaster of New
York city, in some respects the most im
portant place in the postal service.
Mr. Pearson is a mild type of Republi
can in politics, although it is not al
leged he ever made himself disagreeable-
or officious as a partisan. His re
tention was urged from New York by
leading Democrats and the Independent
Republicans who turned the tide of bat
tle in that State last November, and
without whose active aid Mr. Cleve
land could cot have been elected. It
was opposed by many Democrats, in
cluding the Wrld and sometime Demo
cratic Sun, who maintained, with a
good show of reason on their side, that
Pearson's reappointment would be in
the nature of a confession a Democrat
as well qualified for the office could not
be bad, and this would be a bad admis
sion for a party assuming control of
public affairs. The machine Republi
cans were also bitter against Pearson's
reappointment, because in the last cam
paign he would not permit bis office to
be used as a political machine, and as
serted if he hid done his duty as a par
tisanthat is, "worked it for all there
was in it' the influence of the great
metropolitan postoffice would have easi
ly overcome Cleveland's meager plural
ity io the State. We have little ques
tion this is a correct assumption.
President Cleveland was doubtless
governed by two considerations in mak
ing the appointment. It was in the line
of civil seryice refoim ; a recognition of
high official capacity and integrity, as
well as extraordinary success in admin
istering the office. This was evidenced
by the appeals of great business and fi
nancial interests for the retention of
Pearson, and the equally important fact
no serious attempt was made to present
other names for the place. And ic the
second place, as the reappointment was
urged by the Independent Republicans,
en masse, and by such newspaper or
gans of their opinions as the New York
Times, the Evening Post, Harper' s Week
ly, the Xation. the Stoats Zeitung (speak
ing for the Germans), and the anti
Blalne and anti-machine Republican
journals of other States, the President
deemed this recognition of their wishes
not only an act of political gratitude
and justice, but as in the highest de
gree expedient, looking to the continued
success of the party that nominated and
elected bim. In this last respect we
believe the President's action was wise,
and comprehended political drifts hav
ing an important bearing ou the future
of parties.
So far President Cleveland has ap
pointed ouly approved Democrats fo fill
vacancies, whether caused by expira
tion of teims, removals or resignations.
This is the one exception, and we hon
estly believe the facts as to the New
York postoffice, and considerations of
the highest political expediency justify
it. Mr. Pearson, the reappoluted, ig of
a different species from the run of Fed
eral officer! we have a knowledge of in
this part of Uncle Sam's bioad domain,
or suiywhere else we gness. He has
never prostituted his office to the re
quirements of the boss and tbe machine;
atid because he would not do so had
been marked for speedy removal in the
event of Blaine's election. The office
has been conducted by him on a purely
non-partisau plan of work on the theo
ry that "public office is a public trust."
He entered the office as a minor clerk
when only seventeen years old. in 18G0,
and has steadily advanced from that po
sition through all the grades, until on
the appointment of ' his chief, Mr.
James, as Postmaster General in 1381,
he was appointed poatuiastet solely on
the grounds of merit and regardless of
political considerations.
Democratic discontent and growling
has Wen predicted by the interested Re
publican press in the event of this ap
pointment. We do not believe it will
be forthcoming. The ranks have not
vet lieen demoralize 3 by the rings, boss
es and machines, resting on a mudsill of
patronage and plunder, that worked the
dishonor and destruction of the Rpuh
liean party. The mass of the Democ
racy, and the people as well, will see in
President Cleveland's action further ev
idence of the honesty and sincerity of
his ante election declarations and pledg
es. And it may be added, whether they
see this or not, the work will go on
much the same. The hand at the helm
is firm and directed by a high sense of
duty and unflinching courage. Pitts
burgh Post.
A Contrast M 1th Four Tears Ago.
The first month of President Cleve
land's administration is ended, and even
his enemies must admit that it finds
him complete master of the situation.
We do not telieve that any previous
President has accomplished so much in
so short a time. To comprehend fully
what has been achieved it Ie only neces
sary to look back four years. Whit
was the situation on April fourth, 1881 ?
Had the Senate gone home, and was
Washington at peace ? Not by any
means. The nominations of Mr. Rob
ertson for Collector and Wm. E. Chan
dler tor Solicitor General were pending
before the Republican Senate, and olo
of the bitterest factional quarrels ever
known in the politics of this country
was raging within the Republican ranks.
The White House was besieged with
office-seekers, and the Republican press
of the country was divided into two hos
tile camps. The tight grew in bitterness
till the middle of May, when Senators
Conkling aud Piatt resigned. It was
not till eight weeks after the appoint
ment was made that Mr. Robertson was
confirmed and the nomination ot Mr.
Chandler rejected. The Senate adjourn
ed on May 20, but It did not leave peace
in Washington. The factional fight waa
continued there and at Albany, and cul
minated in the shooting of Garfield by
a weak-brained aud disappointed office
seeker ou July 2. Tbe contrast beiwtn
1S85 and 1881 is instructive in many
ways ; but iu none more so than In the
light which it throws uoon the kind of
experienca which best fits a man for ex
ecutive office. We heard a great deal
during the campaigu about Mr. Cieve-
1 a
innu s inexperience in rational politics, i
and the trouble which his uiiUiniluniy j
with methods aud men at Washington I
would Inevitably bring upon him. Mr. i
Garfield bad an almmUnce f the very j
experience which Mr. C.ewUnd lacked.
He bad spent his whole public iitu in ,
Washington, and knew its men and its
ways as well as any othei man of his j
lime; yet be was unable to overcome

THE CH ASHE IS FRANCE.
Whilst the overthrow of the Ferry
Cabinet was as easy as to upset a house
of cards, the establishment of a new
Ministry on its ruins is quite a different
thing. M. Freycinet, who has beeu in
vited to form the new government, is in
entire harmony with President Grevy,
but he finds it extremely difficult to ob
tain a Miuistry tbat can command a
majority of the Republicans in the
Chamber of Deputies. Meanwhile the
world wondors what was the occasion
of this sudden change of administration.
M. Ferry Is overthrown not only, but
subjected to every indignity short of vi
olence to his person, but the Chamber
adheies to his policy and votes the liber
al supplies he asked for just before his
fall. Only a day or two ago he posses
sed in the highest degree the confidence
of public opinion not only ia France but
throughout Enrupe, and suddenly falls
a victim not on account of his for
eign policy, for that has received a vote
of confidence, nor because of the Ton
quin quarrel, which he inherited, but
because the French have snffered a mil
itary reverse in the East for which they
had not been prepared.
For many months, tbat have stretched
iuto year, the Fiench have waged an
adventurous war in the far East without
even the formality of a declaration of
hostilities. In this conflict with semi
barbarians, whose military prowees they
despised, tbey haye sacrificed thousands
of men and millions of treasure on the
altar of glory. To raise the necessary
finances they have even submitted to
increased taxes on their bread and pro
visions. But when an unexpected re
verse overtakes them in this distant
warfare tbey drive tbe Ministry from
power and threaten its members with
prosecution for treason and confiscation
of Drooertv. This is not the sobei act
ot a great people. It is a Cartbagenian
rage, which renders the wise govern
ment of the French Republic an ex
tremely difficult task. When a states
man so circumspect and conservative as
Jules Ferry, whose power seemed so
firmly established, can be thus easily
overthrown it is not strange that the
Monaichists on one hand and tbe Anar
chists on the other should take fresh
courage. For two years these malevo
lent factions have been kept down by tbe
strong hand of Ferry, but over his fall
tbe clamor of the Bourbons and the Bo
napartis'.s answer the howls of the Com
munists for the destruction of the French
Republic.
The moderate French newspapers are
confident that a change of Miuistry will
not adversely affect the foreign relations
of their country. Possibly not. As
long as the French have this contract
to subdue the Chinese on hand they are
not likely to cans much apprenension
to their neighbors In Europe. M. Frey
cinet is a statesman who has already
given sienal proof of bis abilities. He
was at first one of the ablest of the co
adjutors of Gambetta, but was subse
quently driven into opposition by the
latter' projects of nmlii.ion. If he
succeerie'.n formingaMinisi ry inbarmo
ny with the RpuJ)licn maj;rry in the
Chamber of Deputies it wou'd t e rash to
predict tbe duration of his government.
The longest duration of a French Min
istry ince that of Thiers is the one tbat
has just fallen, and which lasted a little
morn than two years. Since 1871 there
have been not less thnn sixteen Presi
dents of Ministry In France, the chan
ges coming with so much suddenness
and frequeucy as to frighten quiet peo
ple with the fickleness of republican rule.
Whether the new Gevernment has come
to stay for any reasonable time will de
pend much on the war in Tonquin and
the willingness of the people to bear its
increasing burdens and sacrifices. Any
reverse in the East, no matter how
flight, will endanger its stability. Phil

in a recent meeting of dynamiters at
New York.
It 'says, while all intelligent and pa
triotic Irishmen know that the remarks
made by Rssa and his followers at this
meeting are really nothing but bun
combe, still tbey are differently regarded
by a great majority of the Qneen's sub
jects and do the Irish cans, a good deal
of mischief. The paper goes on to de
clare the Princo aud Princess of Wales
to be both just as perfectly safe in any
part of Ireland as they are in Sandrig
ham palace, and asserts that no true
Irishman would ever dream of offering
to either of their Royal Highnesses eith
er Insult or injury. "Why is it that
the atmosphere of New Yoik," exclaims
the United Jrelatid, prompts the utter
ance of so much pestilential rot ? "
Tbe agitation for and against a public
reception to the Prince and Princess of

themselves a fund that now amounts to
$7,500. This they will spend io the
way intended to impress tbe royal visi
tors as much as possible with the idea
that the city of Cork is a town bursting
with royalty to the Brit ish Crown. But
the Pri nee of Wales is too smart a man
of the world to fail to see when he
comes to Cork that a majority of the

him personally no particular feeling of
animosity, are nevertheless Nationalists
as against Brit ish rule. The National
