Tie appointment by President Cleveland
of Mr. Henry E. Slaymaker te be post
master of Lancaster, is a veiy geed one.
ipreba-
dll cluil-
longe tlie almost univei-s.il lespect of tlie
lleiiiibucnns.
- Tlie removal of llr. Mnrsliall was right
and pieper. Altliengli an experienced and
for tlie most lutt eilicient uillccr he was all
that is implied by the term "offensive par
tisan;" and in no local or general cam
paign did he desist from tlie oxcrcise of bis
greatest activities for the Republican and
against the Democratic paity. His cleiks
and letter-can iers, with bis appiobatien,
it is,)u be picsimiiil, have always been llie
iictive politicians of their wauls, and no
principle of civil seivice icferin would
hiive justified ids retention.
The active aspirants for the succession,
as well as tliore wlie may have indulged In
tliq hope that the aitpeintment might come
their way without solicitation, have be
haved Feemly and with dignity. Tlicie
was no danger fiem tlie character of
these within the range of possible appoint
ment that any disciedit would ceme te the
Democracy from the cheice inade; and
the lelatiens of tlie candidates and the
manner of their canvass were such that it
i iiiireftne traces of bitterness behind; and
all geed Democrats can congratulate tlioin tliein
selves that a faithful member of their
party, an upright and popular citizen, and
a thoroughly qualified man lias lcceivcd
this nppientmeut.
The Howards of Literature.
It is usual for tliose who have receded
the goal of success in the literary profes
sion te dissuade jeuthful uplr.mts who
essay te climb the Olympian mount "Willi,

the advice veuchsafeil by Jjiffuite the
young cojiple contemplating matrimony,

bome day their real or Imaginary merits
will be lccegnicd. And this desire is
most natural. Te the man of cultivated
mind no joy is keener, no delight is mero
subtle than the thought lhat by the wield
ing of his pen he may play upon the emo eme
tibnsTJf his fellows as a musician upon his
instrument.
liut wliere tlie pegs are se many and the
holes se few, he who ventures ujien the
troubled sea of literature must be content
te atcir for many moons without a 1 udder.
He must be prepared for btein criticism,
and hts ears must grew accustomed te the
laconic editorial utterance " lejected with
thanks." Toe often also must he find his
mental inferiors sitting in judgment upon
him. Hut if he is made of the right kind
of stuff he will pass through this liery fur
nace test, and live te bless the discipline
whereby he beeame stronger and better.
Tlieie is no iejal read te literary suc
cess. One must be content te lucak stene
v lwjfoie Iieinay become thu sletiebieakcr's
""cuipViT. llemerbeggedhisbread through
the cii1bj-ef Gieece. Shakespeaie, the
myriad-minded, was unhoneied by his con
temporaries. Goldsmith was held as an
improvident jester by tlie age in which he
lived, and in our own ceuntiy Longfellow,
Emersen, Ilawtliorne and AVlilttier weie
net accorded their true places in lit
erature until tliey had reached the
sere andj-rllew leaf of life. They knew
net the liberality of the piesent day that
accords te w liters of the tjpe of "W. D.
Hew ells go.!") for a serial steiy like that
of Silas TMjiluim. They wrete for readeis
who live net meiely in tlie present genera
tion, aud us a conscqucnce their works,
polished m? uitijucm, will net suffer the fate
of an ephemeral prosperity.
Therefore let the literary aspirant take
heart. If he has a message te deliver, the
world will some day listen te him. And if
hehas ntfjlethim eschew literaiy effeit
as the de 11 does holy water.

The oldnii'stien,what shall be done with
ex-presidciilt, is always forced te tlie fient
with each ii'liieinent of a chief exeeutiie
te give waj te ids successor or by Iho
death of a i.ian who has held tills etllce. An
exaggerated idea is always given out at buch
times about the awful dignity with which
a man becomes invested by tlie meie fact
of having been president of llie United'
States'. It is assumed that this unfits blm
" for returning te the business or profession
from which he had been drawn. Xe idea
could be nioie erroneous. Every man who
lias been president thus far in our history,
lias been an uetive, energetic follower of
some pursuit. Eiyo of them havebeen

Reared y euld aiise with l'rance. Adams,
Jeffersea and Madisen lived hi retirement
for many j ears after the expiration of their
tennief s rice. imt tliey remained ac-
ttye unl happy te the lest, Adams be-
came sef tcncxl as ilid years grew upon him.
Jeffersen devised the sclicme for the Uni

lived for eight years al the "Hcnnltage"

himself by running for president en the

for 17 years nfler his term expired aud

his dignity. l'elk died within thrce
months afler leaving the "White Heuse,
but Fillmere did net let time hang heavy
en Ills hands although he lived for meic
than twenty years after the presidency
had receded from him. Franklin Pierce's
last days were sad, but net because of any
Inherent fault in tlie ofllce he had held, or
because it had imposed upon him mero
dignity than he could support. Ne llfe
could have gene out moie sweetly or hen
erably than James Buchanan's ; and yet his
last years weie net filled w ith vain regrets
lest there might be seme slrange thing ac

he could net support. Of the two remain.

and Grant only brought himself te grief
when he really lowered the dignity of his

reason why tliey bheuld weiry themselves
about the btat us of the few men who in

ceuntiy, tlicie is no reason why they
should net de se. If they can Iho quietly
