The nominees for the several oCSccb are all good men and tried Dem ocrats, and ill undoubtedly poll the full parly vo'e. Let every voter remem ber that in unity there is strength. Further particulars of the disaster ous forest fires in Michigan show a ter rible condition of affairs in the northern and northeastern part of the State. Tho Mages of Deckerville, Tort Hope, Yeroua Mills, Bad Axe, Htuilusky, An derson, Stanton, Iliohmondsvllle, Char leston and Fortavillc, have been wholly or partly destroyed. In Watertovrn township two families have been burned to death. The continued drought and high winds are spreading the fkmcs, and " hundreds of farms are reduced to blackened ashen." It is fearod thcro has also been serions lns of life. -The Abendpost of SnnFrancisco re ports that California will the present year continue to hold its phice at the bead of the list of tho wheat-growing States, but it adds that this is not likely to be the case much longer. A large part of the soil devoted to wheat cnltnre has been exbauxted to such a degree by earel. ss cultivation that its fertility is on tho wane, and mi.y be expected ere long to give out Iu many places, land that was rich in the highest degree will now produce not ovtr ten or twelve bushels an acre. Thus far the ex hauRtirn of the old soil has been made f o d by bringing new land into cultiva tion. This, however, cannot continue forever. Fruit growing, on the contrary, is constantly assuming largo dimensions, and there seems no limit to the demand for it in the Atlantio Slatm and abroad. The indost.-y is in many places very Jrofitoble. President Garfield was taken to Le.Bg Bronoh Tuesday morning in the special train provided for the purpose. Ho left Washington at 0:30 a.m. Dur ing the journey his wants were attended to in the usual manner, and his wound was dressed in the morning, at Bay View station, near Baltimore. After reaching Long Branch tho fatigue and excitement of the journey told upon tho sufferer, and he was restless and feverish for several hours. An official bulletin, dated G;30 p. m., reported his pulse at that time 124, temperature 101.G, and respiration 18. Later iu the evening the pulse and temperature subsided, and the patient slept Official bulletins will be issued by tho physicians threo times dally, as heretofore. Notwithstanding the intense heat of tho weather, the Pres ident did about as well as could be ex pected Wednesday. Ho rested well the first night at Long Branch, and in the morning his temptnturo was normal, and ho appeared to have recovered from tho fatigue of Tuesday's journey. In the afternoon, the temperature rose to SI de grees in bis bed-room. He had some fever in tho evening, though less than the day before. During the day he took nourishment as usual, and Blept at in tervals. At both tho morning and eve ning dressings the appearanoe of the parotid abscess end tho wound was favorable. At C p. m. his pulso was 108. temperature, 101, respiration 18. Drs. Barnes, Woodward and Beyburn have retired from attendance on the Presi dent, at his own request, leaving the patient in the hands of Drs. Bliss, Ag new and Hamilton. OOITUAIIY. Hon. Hendrick Bradley Wright, who died Friday, 2nd inst, at his residence in Wilkesbarre, was one of tho most prominent characters of the Lehigh coal region. He was born at Plymouth, Lu- ecrae county, Pa., April 24, 1808. He received a good education and graduated from Dickinson College, at Carlisle, af ter which he entered the law ofllco of the late Jpdge Cony ugham, of Wilkesbarre. In 1831 he was admitted to the bar and soon acquired a lucrative practice. Iu 1834 he was appointed District Attorney for liuzerno county by Attorney General George M. Dallis. la J641 ho was elec ted to the State Legislature; nud was re' peatedly re-elected. In the session of 18(3 he wus chosen Speaker of tho House. In 1844 he was a Delegate at Lirge from X'cnnsjlvnnia to the Convention ntBalli more, which nominated Jamm K. Pclk for President. He was cbn en temporary chairman of the Convention arid filled the post so acceptably that he was unani mously elected permanent president, the Convention remaining in sefsion for a week. Subsequently he was u delegate to the Democratic Convention which nominated Cass, Pierce, lluchcnan, Douglass, Seymonr and Tildcn. Iu the meantime he devoted himself to the law p ro.etio, until 18S2, when lis was elected to Confcrees, and Mrvd through his U rm with much ability. On coming up for rc-eivction, however, ho was detenled by the Knnw-Knthiug element and be did not return to Conj-resi uutil 13CI, ul the outbreak of the rebellion. At the clone of this CoUjiims he again with drew iom publio life until 1675, when lie wax buttn tin a candidate fcr Con. trehsnian at large. Iu 1870 he was el, c ted to Congress from the Luzerne dis trie), and iu 1878 was again elected by a eoalltioa of the Democrats and Green bekern. His term expired itiucb. 4, 1881. lie was a eaudidate for re-election hot owing todkseictons in the Demo ciatlc and Greenback parties of Lin dis. trlct. the voters of those parties were di vided, and the Republican candidate, Joseph A. Scranton, secured the election. Mr. Wright was the author of tbo famous lutatura to loan from the Publio Trea sury $500 each to settle ra on the publio hinds, uutil the sum so disbursed Muounted to J10.(KX.(HM. He was nUo the Cba'rtnnn of tho Committee appoint ed in 1879 to inquire iuto tho "causes of the depression of labor," which roamed over tho country and reported in favor of n modification of the Burlingamo treaty, so as to restrict CMncso immigration. He was the author of a work of COO pagep, entitled "Hifitorical Sketches of Ply mouth, Luztoo County, Pennsylvania," and of n serii s of pa pern oi iglnally pub lished in lha Anthracite Monitor, and nfterwart'n collected into book form, un der the litlo of "A Practical TreatUo on Labor." He bai been iu ill health for a long time, and for tbo last two months has been confined to his bod with dropsy. WASHINGTON. OCa 91'KCI.U. l.liTtKR. Wasiiikgtuk, P. C, Sept. 3, 1681. "My husband must live, ho will live." These words of Mrs. G uilt Id, on being Informed by the physicians that the Pres- ident'was iu a very critical condition last B.iturdnj morning, appear in a ftir way of realization. Should the President re cover tbey will go down to posterity as prophetic. The great subject of conversation in the capital continues to be the oonditlon of the man who Ins suffered for the na tion. This is the sentiment which per vades tviry heart and causes tho intense interest which has been excited iu his ciso. It Is not the individual now who felt the blow of the ass if sin, but it is the boad of every family throughout tho en tire rcpublio who bus been theoretically truck down in the performance of his duties. The latest information from the White Housa comes laden with the cheer ing no v, s that the President is holding bis own, and there is already some thought of moving him. To do this by rail has received considerable attention. It is proposed to put tho patient upon a palace car, ballasted with railway iron so as to make it run smoothly, and place tho car iu front of a train so as to avoid all dust aud smoke. By travelling at a slow rate of speed it is thought that scarcely any motion could be perceived. It is stated that Gen. Sherman has been training some soldiers to march with such evenness of tread that a tumbler of water can be carried by them on a bond without spilling n drop. However this may bo, serious thoughts are now being entertained of moving the President from tho White House. Iu this connection, attention has been given to the manner in which the functions of the Executive shall be performed. There has bcon considerable discussion in the Cabinet on the subject and one of the principal points involved is whether there is con stitutional or legal authority for the ter mination of the Vice President's assump tion of the Executive office, after ho shall have been notified of General Garfield's recovery and his ability to dlschiirgo the presidential duties. Among commenta tors on the Constitution there is but ono instance of an expression of opinion on this point, and the language then is as follows: " If the Vice President should "sucoeedto the office of President he " will continue in it until the regular ex piration of the period for which the "President was chosen." This, in all probability, refers to permanent vacancy in the office cf President, and tbo con tingency of n temporary disability does not seem to have been thought of by the f miners of the Constitution. The only legal plan thus far devised is that Presi dent Garfield should delaim his tempor ary inability to perform tho duties of the office, and thereupon Vice Pros't Arthur shall arsume the ofllco of President until that disability is removed. Tho idea that the Vice President may be invited to como to the White House and act as a clerk to sign tho namo of James A. Gar fisld is entertained by only two members of the Cabinet, the Attorney General (MaoVeagh) and the Postmaster General (James). They say that a precedent is found in the practice in existence for many yoars whero the Executive has op. pointed n clerk to sign the President's name to land warrants. The near approach of tho annual regat ta of the National Amateur Rowing As sociation has givou a decided impetus to the boating element of the District of Columbia. Several of tbo clubs which are to participate have already arrived and are having some lively practice. It is quite an exciting sccno upon the up per Potomac evrry evening now, as the river is crowded with boats, and the lo cal clubs are putting forth every effort to get themselves into the proper racing time. The Baving to the Government by Pest Master General James during bis term of office in about five mouths has already reached tho immense sum of 1,300,000. This has been accomplished, it 1b pesi lively asserted, without detriment to tho postal service. This shows what can be done by having a practical man at the head of affairs. August. Fsou oca IUgi-lab CoRr.r.sroo!iT. WiamsaTos, Sept. 6, 1881. There is a growing demand for anoth er .investigation in connection with the OovcrnrneBt Departments here. For borne time, and espeoially during tho last year, nearly all ihsnts of the daily papers have coutilned advertisements for posi. tious under the Government, the adver tiser ogrteltigo pay S1C0 or $200. more or less, for the appointment, and a per centage of salary as long as employed. Some is juts of certain newximpers con tain two or three of theso advertisements. Here is a specimen clipped from last cvojinpjf bun : WANTED S100 rash and ten per cent vi rntnij t,,i ua imm 1V JIUSIUDU 111 any of tie Depxrlineuts. Address In conflder.cn, -Quiet' this elllce. From the frequency with which such advert! ments appear, and the continued use of thi-i method it is evident that tbey are sometimes, perhaps alwsys, success ful, benator Plnmb alluded to this state of things on the lbior of the Senate, just before adjournment l.is' seeslon.and from tbeniauucr in which his remarks ere received it may be n guided probable that something will be cone about tbo matter next session. Tlitr certainly should be an investigation. It would be interesting to Lnow who the individuals are that rarrv on a brokerage in Govern ment positions und what facilities tbey have for doing it successfully. Those who have made the effort in a legitimate way know how hard it is to obtain an ap pointment. Few who spply bavo the persistence to pursue their applications to the end. The majority become weary, heart-sick and disoouraged after months of waiting, and give it np in disgust. But these brokers aro said to do their business very promptly. Of courso it would not bo possible to carry this sort of thiug on to any extent without having cou'edtratcs ou the inside, and It be comes a subject worthy of attention to find out how many of tho Departments havo chief clerks, heads of Bureaus, or other officers who nro dispensing posi tions for pay. If some action is not tak cn by the proper authorities your corres pondent will selmfi of those days under take to get at ' the bottom of it for the benefit of the publio. The country generally appears to be well satisfied with Secretary Wiudom's financial policy and with tho general management of the Treasury Depart ment under him. While congratulating the Secretary upon his success I want to express the humble opinion that be would do an excellent service to the country, or at Ieaf.t to those citizens having business with the Treasury, if ho would make a few changes in ihe higher grades of subordinate officers iu bis De partment It will bo remembered that the recent scandal affecting the Chief Clerk and appointment Clerk Lampher-, in connection with the contingent fund of the office was not disposed of iu a ve ry satisfactory manner1 The faot that Lamphere had used bis position to sell the Government a large number of worthless books compiled by him, and that by the probable connivance of the Chief Clerk certain frauds in the pur chase of supplies Ii8d been committed, was brought out with such evidence as to be generally believed. Yet the re port on the subject prepared by a com mission of inquiry was pigeon-holed by Mr. Windom, and Limphire is still in his position. This report is generally understood to have sustained the charges made, and reflect more or less directly upon certain other officials. Whether this is true or not the public Lave no menus of knowing. But it seema to us the people lave a right to know all about it and tLai Secretary Windom has not only made a great mistake but ex ceeded his rightful authority. Whatever tho csnclusion on this point, it will be pretty generally admitted among thoio who are acquainted with the facts, that Assistant Secretaries Up ton and French ought to be removed. To put it more delicately ; tbey should both be invited to resign. Mr. Upton is considerable of a politician, but he has not made a very good officer. Before his promotion to the position of As sistant Secretary he was Chief Clerk, and tho irregularities charged in con nection with purchases date back to and are said to have begun under his admin istration of that office. Assistant Secre tary French is nn insolent bureaucrat, with no capacity whatever for the deli cate duties of his office, which are to construe the revenue laws. Merchants aud importers whose business has brought them in contact with him al most unanimously complain of tho treat ment they have received at his hands. Be has even gone so fur as to pronounce that it is bis official duly to oonstrne the laws so that they shall conform to his own preconceived notions of what they ought to be. Owing to some of bis ab surd rulings hundreds of thousands of dollars of the capital of sugar importers alone have been tied np only to bo re leased at the bidding of the courts, which htvo without an exception de cided the other wny. Other interests have suffered similarly. Notwithstand ing the decisions against him he renews his rulings in every case, and compels every importer to resort to legal process. His Teraoval hes long been demanded by tho commercial interests of the country and it is a blot on Secretary Sherman's administration that French.was not dis missed, This may sound a little like unnecessary faultfinding to easy going people at a distance, but I must free my mind once in a while, and like a great man whose tomb I recently visited down the river, I cannot tell a lie. From the " cave of gloom " into which the Capitol was thrown by the late un favorable turn in the President's case we bavo during the last few days expe rienced a happy change. There is now a strong feeling of hopefulness and a prevailing belief that tho worst has been passed. But the telegraph no doubt keeps you better posted than I could hope to by miil. Don Pjuno.
