Victoria is enorm ously wealthy, but she ia also very mean In money matters, and will never "shell out" to one of her children as long as Farliameat steps in, as It alwavs does, and relieves her of that unpleasa nt duty' This annuity of $30,000, as well as all other annuities irrinrprt I - ....

Instead of recardino- th n ' uv. lection or prominent ex-rebels to imnor- tant places of public trust, as conclu sive evjdeuce of a restored and united country, as it plainly is. Beaver means x m 9 a u ne can to fire the Northern heart by partisan clamor aimed at representative Southern men. His ignoble attempt, however, will prove a miserable failure, as It deserves to do. Where was Beav er's indignation when Grant, who is supposed to know as much about ex rebels as the Centre county General ever did, made Akermar., a Georgia rebel. nis Attorney General ? Or when Hays put Key, a Tennessee rebel, at the head of the Postoffice department ? Or when Longstreet was made Minister to Tur key, Hilliard, of Alabama. Minister to Brazil, or Mosby, the Virginia lash whacker, was sent as Consul to Hong Kong, in China? The union of the States having been restored the South is equally entitled with the North to participate in the practical administia tion of the government, and if it is not, the notion that there is a Union is a transparent sham. But there is a Un ion, not only in name, but in truth and in fact ; the accursed spirit of section al hate is dead and bnried out of sight, and neither Beaver nor any other Re publican leader can ever resurrect it and Btart it again on Its evil mission. Malcolm Hay. of Pittsburg, who was appointed First Assistant Postmas ter General bv Mr. Cleveland soon aft er his inauguration, and who, since then, has been staying at Aiken, S. C, in order to build op bis health which was very much impaired, has informed Postmaster General Vilas that his phy sical condition is greatly Improved and that he would be in Washington either on yesterday or to-day. Tbe position for which Mr. Hay was selected is one which can only be properly filled by a man in perfect health, since It invests hiox with plenary power over the offi cial lives of about forty-five thousand deputy Postmasters for roost of whose places Democratic aspirants are patient ly waiting. The work, therefore, which Mr. Hay i9 expected to accomplish is almost equal to any oue of the twelve labors of Hercules, to the performace of which a giant's strength and endur ance were necessary. Mr. Hay'8 ap pointment commanded universal ap proval and we trust that when be re turns to Washington and gets down to business, he will be able to stand the pressure. His most intimate friends, however, entertain a fear that be will not be physically competent for the task and that his resignation is only a ques tion of time. The joint resolution offered several weens ago in the House at Harrisburg by Mr. Lowry, of Indiana conntv, pro posing an amendment to the Constitu tion reducing the number of members to one hundred, the numoer prior to the adoption of the new Constitution, was defeated last week, the vote standing. Yeas 75; nays, 74. As it requires 101 votes to pass a b'll through the House the resolution lacked only 26 of that number, 52 members being either ab sent or too cowardly to assume the re sponsibility of voting. Tbe vole shows clearly that public opinion through the representatives of th people is ranidlv assuming definite shape in favor of the proposed change. One or two more sessions of a Legislature like the last or I the present body will be required, before the people in the different counties will take the matter into their own bands and send men to Harrisburg who will execute their will. When the new Con stitution was submitted to a vote of the people for their ratlGcation or rejection in December 1373. it had to be vo'.ed for as a whole or rejected as a whole, the men who framed it refusing to uer init a separate vote on any one of its provisions. Notwithstanding its defects it was such a vast improvement on the the State adopted it oyau tusutm, -jority, but we never doubted that if the question of a two-fold increase in the number of members of the Legislature had been presented to the people as a distinct proposition, they would have defeated it, and are of that opinion still. One of General Jackson's former slaves who is now ?2 years old and is known as Uncle Alfred Jackson, went recently from the Hermitage farm on ha was born, to Nashville, only a Tl LJIVU - " V - - few miles distant, to see Governor Bate in regard to a story he had heard to the effect that the farm, which Is now the property of the State of Tennessee, was to be presented to the National Govern- ment by tue L,egisiaiuie, mo im pose of having built thereon a home for the soldiers of the war of 1812 and the Mexican war. After the Governor had atisfied Uncle Alfred that no matter what was done with the Hermitage, ho and the rest of the old colored servants who have their homes upon it would not be interfered with, and the old man was about to start back, when he was encountered by a newspaper reporter who said to mm : ouuoui,naU.. - Gen Jackson pretty high tempered ?" Well, young master," he replied, "dat depens' on de circumstances. He wouldn't allow no man for to cry him down He vrere Jokev and ful1 of fuD but wheneber he said 'By the Eternal God 1' den ebery body knows jest what be said." Among other remarks Al fred also said : "I remember when old master died iu 143. tor I was standm' right dar Mongide of his bed. He war de greatest mn what ever lived ; every body said so, and all his black people believed it." The antl-discriminatiou bill was de feated in the lower branch of the Legis lature last week, the vote standing 88 yeas, to 87 nays, the bill lacking thirteen of a majority of all tbe votes in the House. It is a singular fact that while the Philadelphia and Allegheny coonty members voted nearly solidly against the bill, not a single representative from any of the counties between Philadel phia and Pittsburg along the main line of the Pennsylvania railroad, including Cambria, voted for it, with the excep tion of one of the members from .Hun tingdon. As old Sam Weller wold say, this is a very "hextraordinary co incidence," and goes to show that the corporations are greater than the Con stitution, It Is eleven years since the people of this State adopted the new Constitution, and the Seventeenth Arti cle of that instrument iu regard to Rail Roads remains a dead letter for want of appropriate legislation to carry its "pro visions into effect. We fully admit the difficulties ir. framing an anti discrimi nation bill that will protect the people of the State' from corporate rapacity, and at the same time do even handed justice to the railroads, but surely the task is not insurmountable. It is a le- -,1 m;irm that wherever there is a wrong I here is a remedy, but in the mat - - ... .. . . . i- v ..:i ter of freight aiscnminai.iou uj in roads which is an admitted injustice t the public, the remedy seems to be one of the lobt arts of legislation.

Post office Department, ) Office of Postmaster General, Washington. D. C, April 29, '85. j Dear Sir: The ronr.innol iii.,.o Mr. Hay will delay his coming for some time yet to the Department, and I think it desirable that some action shouid be taken in the way of removals, and am impatient to assist our people in secur ing relief to which they are justiy enti- tlaH . . : , . v. prtiiinmi pnsimasrers. i nave nan a conference with the Virginia del egation, aud they will soon bring in their cases, and I shall hope to make the earliest removals in that State. As soon as they shall be ready, and I hope within a week. 1 desire to annoint fmm three to ten in a county in Virginia, am ounting to several hundred altogether. I had intended to invite yourself and the Democratic delegation from Ohio to meet me this week and consider the plan upon which we should proceed in making removals in Ohio. But I un derstand it will be inconvenient for some to travel hither now, and it has occurred to me that perhaps the same end might be accomplished by writing. I shall beg you, therefore, to consider the suggestions I make as to the meth ods of procedure, and if you can adopt mem ana get some cases ready within the next two or three weeks I think within the month of May I can give substantial relief that will take away the importunity anl discontent. I think that from 15 to 25 per cent, of tbe fourth-class postmaster in Ohio might be removed within the next two months, and great good accomplished thereby, if our people adhere to a proposed plan. This is, in short, to pick out the most obnoxious and offeiifive partisans iu each county, to the number of a sixth to a quarter of all. and choose first. men to take their places. I will require no more proof of partisanship iu these selections than the affirmation or knowl edge on the part of a Representative or senator that the postmaster has been an active editor or proprietor of a Re publican newspaper, printing offensive articles, easily shown by siips ; or a stump speaker, or member of a political committee, or officer of a campaign club, or organizer of political meetings, or that his office has been made the headquarters of political work, or that his clerks have been put into the per formance of political duties. Possibly other asts of equal force may be noted in some cases. If the Representative does not know the fact, it should be es tablished by some affidavit of some per son whom lie can affirm to be of unques tioned credibility, or by some documen tary evidence. In recommending for appointment, I beg the Representative will state the age, and what kind of business experi ence, and a description of the business character of '.lie applicant, and also of his habits and standing in the commu nity. It would be well to file evideoce showing that he will be satisfactory to the community, and when there are va rious candidates, I will be obliged by aoy explanation which the Representa tive can give. This necessarily imposes a little trou ble, and yet not very great, but it seems to me reasonable to require very extra ordinary care and trouble enough to be taken to represent surely the facts. The fames!, removals and appointments of this kind will challenge the keenest scrutiny. Tbe former roust be justifia ble aud the latter be-yon 4 criticism. Some mistakes have perhaps occurred and our adversaries are keenly interest ed to make the most of every fault, be cause they have perceived a verj st'rong current of general approbation gf the purposes of tbe Administrating In rendereing this justice to oi.r vJp which con-aivta of fli i . ble to proceed with extfemEV'-i j that I am correctly representing the j President's wishes and purposes in earn- , estly soliciting thateveiy step ba tafcen accordingly. I may add that as the common good is infinitely beyond the welfare of anyone person, however great his olace. sd appoiotmeuts to further a mere personal end, should be absolutely forbidden, and recommendations on tuai, basis may well expect disfavor. I shall very willingly take np t he case of any district or of any county, when ever they are ready ; and I shall be clad if the R-presentative can personal ly attend a'id eo ovei them. Papers shonU l sent iu as Soon as possible. and will be ibeii carefully brielea in me department; and when o made ready appointments can be made with great rpidity. Should ou think it desirable to have a persona: conference before this is be gun. I shall be very glad to meet the delegation. But as I have felt it desirablfr to re lieve them of unnecessary journeying and exDense, I have written a similar letter to each Representative from Ohio, and respectfully solicited responsive ac tion in accordance with the spirit of it. Verv trulv yours, William F. VtL as. Postmaster General. tbe President has violated a promise or done anything on which to form the charge of bad faith. How differentia this from the usual experience with rew Administrations 1 Promises on the st-tgeon which our President is acting are not only madb freely, but frequent ly only to be broken with deliberation. It is a hard thing to say, but experienced politicians are witnesses to the fact that it has been no uncommon thing to hear men in numbers declare that in former times tbe President did not keep his word only that the language would be much stronger. One fact stands out above all others, to wit : That nothing of the kind is heard of Presi dent Cleveland. The fact is worth i dwelling on. It is a rock on sure foun dation. The fact goes far to decide what in an important aspect the fnture will be. SEWS AXD OTHER 50T1XGS. nis f-erson-al traits. The President's personal traits as they are brought -out are causing him to wear well. His incisive hard sense is never at fault. He is a hard man to cet in a corner. Taking his stand for good and sufficient reasons be never dodges from pillar to post for momentary shel ter. He can deal a heavy blow, such, for instance, as remarking to the Illi nois delegation that their presence at helping to win a Democratic United States Senator would become them quite as much as office-seeking in Wash ington. The idea that Mr. Cleveland is a dull man will have to be given np. Don M. Dickinson's success in dispen sing the patronage of Michigan proves bow strong the President's friendships are. Armed with that Dickinson was able to stand against a multitude. He returns to his State having won at all points. There may have teen more politic appointments than some of his are, but whatever mistakes weie com mitted the rare virtue of fidelitv tn friends runs through them all. Much can be predicated on the rule of action based on the observance of one's word and fidelity to friends. However broad one's mental vision may be, if his char acter include not these qualities, his useruiness and power are bound to de cline. Whatever may be thonaht of the issn ing of a circular by the Postmaster Gen eral pointing out the preliminary steps ior procuring the removal of Postmas ters, u at least shows the intention of mKing cnanges at an accelerate rate in response to the popular demand. What is true ot that department will, it is weiieveu. ue rouna ro re true of others. It needed not the Postmaster General's statement that Assistant Hay's absence was a ninarance to the business of the aepanment. it necessarily follows that, continued much longer, it will work a necessity that can be met only by the appointment of a successor. Philadel phia limes. eating it. reason to be called cures Conrad, OSLT TWO IEKTS BUT! THE BUSY T HI'S ID EST- The high license bill has undergone a ; great many changes sinie Its first intro duction into the House at Harrisburg. When tbe bill was before it on yester day week seveial amendments were pro posed and defeated, with the exception of one which was adopted, fixing the li cense at $100 all over the Slate In addi tion to that now paid, the increase to go inro the county treasuries. The further consideration of the bill was postponed until yesterday. There is an undoubt ed majority of the House in favor ot a higher license system, but there is such a wide difference of opinion in regard to the extent of the increase, that it i? ut terly impossible to even guess at the fi nal result. There is no question that now comes before a State Legislature so difficult of question, the reason being that free liquor advocates and high Heense advo- j cates insist on their own respective j plans being adopted, forgetting that, there Is a half-way house at which both j can be accommodated. Washington,' May 17. -Iu sooe re spects the week past has been the Presi dent's hardest week yet. Delegations and eounter delegations from a number of States have poured in on him. "When you eannot agree among yourselves now can I be supvxieed to decide and displease no oue ?" This is the uestiou of auch obvious good seuse that contending del-t-gatii.ns have seen its force and tried, though not with much success, to pre sent a solid front. The Missouri Senators and Represen tative have given the Presidnni no little I trouble. He has done his best to saus ' fy them and at times they have professed themselves satisfied. Just as he aup- j ! posed that he had finished a bard job j in that quarter down conies a committee protesting that what was done for Iho , Senators was not right and should be ! undone and done better. If tbe l'resi dent doesn't listen and grant all these ! demaods these newcomers are down on 1 him. Is it any wonder that the Presi dent should be stiffened in his resolution "to go it, a'one," follow bia conscien tious judgment and trust to the people for salvation ? NO TROMI5ES VIOLATED. It is unquestionably true that the President's newness in the vast field of his present operations and want or fa miliarity with certain methods that be long to national and are not learned, in State matters makes his woik harder than it would to an old stager. But it is admitted on all hands thnt he is a ready learner and goes up steadily to the bead of the class. It is to be said. I als , that President. Cleveland is not only learning to understand new tnings. Some of the Republican papers are disposed to be sarcastic over the recent connt of money in the Federal Treasu ry, showing a deficit of only two cents in hundreds of millions. Where are the "rascals," they say, that aie to be turn ed out, when such a showing is made with illimitable possibilities for steal incr ? The stealing has not hee.i done in this way. Since tbe formation of the Gov ernment there have been very few down right defalcations in tne public offices There is a cast iron system that pro- tects the Government, and makes direct Ialceny a very daneeious biisineca . to be discovered and promptly punished. There are not now and never have been many defaulters in the Federal eervice. The plundering has been done nndei the forms of law, and in tbe exercise of discretionary power. The mammoth steal of tbe Credit Mobilier, that run into tens of millions, was no vulgar op eration of grabbing from fit rnn er v or safe, but a superb bit of financiering and speculation io which the coopera tion of Congressmen, Federal office hold ers and corporations was necessary There came first the land and money Rrautg, then the waiyintr of a first and acceptance of a second mortgagu by tbe Government, then the plundering con struction company, and issues of bonds having preference over tbe Government security. Millions on millions were gut IDe Tootwry; - So, too, of the whiskey Tin frauas the most gigantic steal of our day. It enriched the magnates of the Republi can inrtt nnlv a few of the rogues of lesser degree coming in for any share of punishment. The Star route postal swindles were of tbe same character. Seven millions was the amount of the estimated plun der. It was done nnder the forms of law was within the discretion the stat utes placed in high officials. And the futile attempt to bring tbe robbers to justice was raade the pretext for a tre mendous iob in their trials. So. too. of tbe swindles in the Navy Department uidei the Robeson regime. Millions were stolen by favored contract ors and jobbers, and the Government was without recourse because the ex travagance, or in plain terms, stealing, came within th discretiouary powers of the depart meot officials. There was a generous disposal of dividends. And the lano? graooing wa ta.mcu on ir. the same way. There was good ReDiiUican law or department rulings to cover the appropriation of an imperi al domain. The closing hours of the Arthur Administration were distin guished by Sunday and nieht work in making out patents for unearned lands to Gould and Huntingdon syndicates. Pure stealing, yet no indictment could be found. People who engajre in such magnifi cent operations don't descend to the vulgar theft of a few dollar froo an office safe. They would be delected' and punished if they did. But when It comes to stealiexi millions of dollars usino the powes of the Goyernmeut to plunder the uovernment tne lvepuun can leaders were there all the time. They were eqiial to'' the. emergency.
