We liave n, renert from New Yerk that the Pittsburg iteeple who organized u fuel gas company anil ran against u deci deci clslen of the supreme court of l'ciinsylvii nia, that its laws did net aullinrize the incorporation of natural gas companies, have undertaken te get out of their ililll cultyhy organizing under the cluutcref the American transfer company. This was one of the omnibus charters which wcre abundantly passed in this btale a score of years age, and which authorized the in in in corperators te de anything and cvery- thing that anyoue could itessibly wisli te de. They wcre made for sale and have-had a high commercial value. This American transfer charter has leen used in the busi ness of piping oil, but the company was long slnce absorbed by the bland ard oil company, and its charter was transferred te the National transit company, which undei took te keep it alive. Although it had no use for it, having all the chartered nrivileces it needed. Its con cessions, however, were tee valuable te be lest, if they could be saved ; and the ques tion for Mr. Hosteller and the ether gen tlemen who have invested in the charter is as te whether it is a ical live and kicking parchment. "We presume that they rntis iied themselves that It is all right or they would net have lraughl it ; but the opinion or their lawyers has deceived thcuionce and possibly tl.ey may come te gtief again ; for it does notseem te be altogether clear that a charter granted te ene company and used v It for certain purposes can Iw tranMcd at will te another company tq be used for their nurneses. The courts may deiij this convenient locomotive (tower te a charter, and may consider its virtues te Ik- net only exhausted by long nen-nscr but also te be limited te the company llrst feimcd and te the uses te which it has applied its privi leges. Certainly it is nut u geed tiling for the state that a charter should bokeptalive after the company which it erected is prac tically dead ; audit is net te be supposed that the supreme court will care te held a chatter te be the immortal part of a mor tal company, as the soul is the immortal paitef a mortal body. "When a man dies bis soul departs. "When a company is dis dis selved itschartercannetstay. This probably will net be denied, but it will be maintained that the company is still alive, though it docs no business. "Whether it is living or dead will be the question for decision, and it would seem te be advisable for the holders of its charter te be able te show decided activity in their corporation te persuade the court, sitting as a coroner's juiy, that It is net viewing a corp"- Appointments and Itenieiiils. There is n wide-spread popular misap prehension that civil service reform, or what passes for that, as a system of ap pointments provided by the civil service lawandadministeiedby the commission ers, consists mainly in keeping in efllcc by letaining r leapiwinting them these who happen te be in olllce. Such is net the case. There is no such prevision in the civil setvice law framed by Mr. Pendleton and administered by Mr. Eaten's commis sion. It was purposely emitted, boas te leave the power of removal as free te the executive as ever it was. And a very val uable and necessary power it is. "When it comes te making new appoint ments, of that particular grade which is comprehended under the civil service law, and which does net include the lower class of laborers and empleyes, nor the heads and chiefs of departments, it is understood that the president will observe the law, and cause it te be observed. Under that law he appoints a commission, consisting of two Democrats and ene Itepublican, who in turn appoint ether examining Iwards who investigate all applicants and lepert upon their fitness ; and whenever a place is va. cant they can recommend four icrsens for it, from which the appointing power in the exercise of its discretion selects ene for the position. Tills is the whole hcetw and effect of the law, and it does net apply te any elllces or departments wheiein there aie less than fifty appointees. It will readily be Men that this makes no prevision whatever for the retention of present officials ; and in every case wliere they have been appointed for an indefinite term, the very proper question te 1k asked concerning them is whether or net they would be new' appointed If their olllce was vacant. Their eccuimncy of it gives them no lieu en it; nor does their honest and capable discharge of itsdutics. If they are belter qualified than anybody else, that is sonie consideration. Hut the t acUhat tliey have been appointed hitherto by a Republi can administration, in ninety-nine cums out of a hundred for partisan reasons, establishes no claim en their init te be continued. "When they were ap pointed no Democrat's met it was consider ed for a moment. The assumption of such appointees that they have a divine right te the offices is nsempty as it is Impudent. Tims it happens that the administration finds a Republican in the New Yerk post pest post efllce, who was appointed because he had been the son-in-law of a previous ltepubli tun. It seems that he has miule a fair postmaster, barring some complaints of ir tisau misuses. Hut his. term Is finished. His leappelnttueut is demanded' en some " civil srvicev ground. If he Is the one person In New Yerk pre-eminently quali fied fertile place, he will probably get it ; but if the juesideut la net convinced of Sensible Stanford. Senater Stanford, of California, has said te a JeiM correspondent that the stories about the parade, with which his son was taken ftem Europe te his grine in Califor nia arc altogether untrue, nud haveliecn very painful te himself and his wife, wlie were as little ostentatious ns possible In laying their dead child te test. News paper reporters de a great many cruel .things in their giced for an entertaining paragraph, but it docs seem as though tliey might Ik) able te control themselves se as te lcave n father and mother bereft of their only child alene in their grief, or at least tell only the truth about them when they de intrude niten their threshold. Scnnter Stanford says that he proposes te make disposition of his great estate in his life time, being thoroughly alarmed at the litigation which fellows se frequently the distribution of great properties by will. He Is certainly very wise. A man who has a greater income than he needs for himself, is wise te dispose of it before he dies ; csiecially w lien he projects a pub lic benefaction. Net only is he thus sure that his wishes will be carried out, but lie himself hi then beat iutcipretcd ami has the greatest interest te see that his beneficence is most effectually established.

The enlay against Higgins is ery cum plimentary te the administration. There seems te bn mine ciy than wool. He has been named for a miner place, and he does net seem te boa vciy offensive or import ant sort of person. Hut he is net above suspicion. The fact that the dubiousness of his character has made him an object of national inlei est, shows what a lelly ped estal this administration standi upon in public estimation. The New Yerk front" J'eH eiylilly contrasts the Higgins business with some Irfermanccs under Garfield and Aitliur; and il might continue the list of cempari sons still further. When Mr. Garfield came into office the men closest te him weie the "chum cabinet," of which the uoteiious Swaim was the chief; and in evciy department the worse than Higglnses ruled the toast. Why Is it that one 1, MX) clerkship raises such an excitement V The answer is in the highest degrce creditable te the adminis tration. It means that it is popularly credited with such lefty purposes that it single slip creates surprise. The piesident and Ills cabinet have every icasen te Ik gratified at such a critical and sensitive condition of the public mind. Wiir.N tlie Aiabs get a repulse, it is nut lung before tliey icliirn tlie compliment tu tlie Kngllsli enemy. HiNi'KNknting rinks have taken held or the popular fancy, there h.ii been a continual outcry against them ler physical and moral reasons, lint the most cllecllve argument uwtd against thorn was that they encouraged a pioiiiiseiieiis Intercourse) between the sexes thatlcft guileless young women the easy prey of adventurer. Te offset this mid ether allega tions ii lcague has hcen formed by the rink men of Chicago, and te gu.ud against sup posed evlls the new association has adopted an claborale moral-cedo for the personal inV scrvance of their patrons, as follews: "Ne person in Htteudjuce at a rink shall approach a woman in any way, except, of eeursc, wheie she should need assistance In case of ac cident, unless a preiKtr introduction shnll haet.iWcn place, and p.irtic8Se olleuding shall be expelled from the rink; nor shall they be allowed te skale at any of the rinks included In the association. This is for the protection of women and young girls from the advances of any one, male or female, who may seek te make himself or herself obnoxious or who has n had purposein view." The previsions aie geed, but their cnlorcc cnlercc ment w 111 be a herculean task. The White Heuse reception el Riturd.iy afternoon was the most spirited of the threw yet held by Miss Clevulniul. The lavornble Impression mrule by the president and his sisters en the Invited guests of Tuesday ocnlngseems te have thawed llie Ice, and Indies of leading Republican circles wero ns numereus In the throng its theso of Deme cratic, nnd qulte as chatty and full of enjoy ment.
