The mighty significance of L
dreadful occurrences • of the past
week, in New York, should awaken,
the earnest and thoughtful attention
of every. good :citizen. It is not , to
the killing and wounding of so many
men, women and children that public
attention and inquiry need tto
directed.. The suffering and death
of thatbccasion we would not under
estimate, nor Pass lightly by. They
wring the hearts of relatives and
.friends e and shock the feelings of, the
sympathetic all over the land. 'We
leave th the proper' authorities the
clisposifion of all .the technical and
legal questions involved, deploring
the necessity which called . for such
carnage, and particularly that among
the victims shotihl be numbered those
whO were guiltless of everything ex . =
cept a morbid curiosity.
But the vascillating.eourse of the.
City authorities, taken in connection
with !the ontragebus demands and
threats of the Hibernian SOcipties,
"the up of the city govern-'

.of riot and-bloodshed, should arouse
every c e

Demo,..rati,! rtiha or misrule, ,so well

The latent danger to the : liberties

fit to be trusted with power, because
the great and piling element. of that
party cannot be depended upon to

on religions nor nationalities, but we
would protect and respect all alike.
And what wo accord to others, we
claim for ourselves. We' trust the
'day is far distant when the religious
privileges of any citizen shall be in
any way' abridged. We appeal: to
every intelligentnitizen, if the recent

Tuesday, e. sr., (June 13), the day flied upon
or our departure, found us ready, but the par
y was not on the whole In good spirits. aot-
cum aspect was visible on the lams of the gen-
Hemet, ; and the ladies, while putting on the
recuthince of cheerfulness, gave one the im
pression that they fie rather faiut-heart6l.
Rut to return was out of the gneation: The die
,was cast. We reached 'dodo.' to for the night,
where we were roused pp for a -four o'clock
breakfast. Here we left our trunks and the,
railroaclfor 96 usnosiotstaging. At this point
the ladies aro obygici to put on their squestri

the prejudices of Many of ountrionds; but we
hope te.aotten them a MO by mentioning that
cur largci asm-bonneta modified the garb very
pareeptibly, making it difficult to judge whether
we were contributors to the Wol7kllol J 0411104

periority steals over us towards those of our
sex who aro anxious to nuke a tine totlotte. At
some hiture limo we ma). be equally foolish,
but now the idei Boerne preposterous. We pass
over w4th a sense of weariness that long day in '
the stage. We rode 81 miles before stopping
tot the night, and we looked upon alighting,
like mere receptacles of dust. The unanswered
question, "Will this pay i"—hequestly,arose to
our LPL But If the law of co *Bastion holds

us some relief and also the thought that we
'had only 12 miles more to make of this meat

began to revive our hopes, an different from
that of the day previdds. -It wailoo tench of a

begins, we positively regrot'it.;;Will it do to
own that this may partly be attributed to a fear
le.t in having bees too boastful, some . of 'ns
"weighed in the balance"— might be found
wanting? We were put to a slight test the,
sam. day by a ride to "the Mariposa Big

'there was still room fur hundreds of ethers on
his mighty. trunk. As our predecessors had
done, we also, hewed and backed at the lifeless
remains, bearing off our trophies triumphantly;
and ire then desceilded to visit " a live brother,"
the Grizzly Giant—close at hand. Despite our
sacrilege, his appearance was most benignant,
as we stood around and wonderingly tried to
"take his measure." Our guide informed us
that the day before, twenty-flve persona on

liefses rode abreast, were pointed out to us.
Pat thitei ,king sun 'warned us to return.
Pondering over what we had seen, we tried to
forget that we were intensely weary', and desir
ed above all things to disinount and fortify our
selves for another day. Terentygonr miles are
between us and the Valley. We feel very grate

of the distance is overcome ; still, the Half-Way
House is by no. ineans an unwelcome retreat.
Built of rouglejii:anla withont paint,_ paper or

Nye are to-day so courageous, thatinstead of
retreating ati ries into the Valley, we conclude
to use the fikenoon by going to Glacier-Point—
where a bird's eye view of the land of promise
is afforded. We strike a trail and go up, up,
indefinitely, breathing raritled air again. The.

LETTER TROY ' WASHINGTON.
-Wazenicrros, D. C., July 16, 1871.
Ha. Fannie: Reform in any branch of the
public service is_ certainly desirable. To elevate
the standard of clerical ability, should be the
object of all good men.l Competitive examine. ,
tion combined with probationary trial ought to
secure the most competent men 'for the posi
tions open. All . this is very good, and lithe
civil service coannlaskro do nothing mere than
secure the adoption of a system having these
objects for its lasi*, their" appointment will
not be in - 1,11112. - Bet there is gosh a thing SA
going too Jar in the matter of reform, and, if
the commission should fall into the feted error
of ignoring the polities of the applicant for of=
five, the system. evolved_ by them will tall to
pieces by its own weight and the good which
they propose doing will be defeated:
The principle invoked in this magnanimous
proposition is as defective in theory as would
be injurious in practice. The government is
ruled by party, that is, certain party principles
are endorsed by the people ; certain party men
ere placed in pOwer through this endorsement,
and the people demand of these officers a faith
ful and honest adherence to those principles
which have received their sanction. These
elective ot.icers in turn elect or appoint certain
other officers to carry out in detail the legiti
mate work of the government, and to endorse
the policy of appointing men to office under
them, who differ in political sentiment, who
Inking to the part defeated by the people, is
.
to insult the popular will and to act in direct
opposition to the expressed with of the majori
ty. Thus in theory it is defective. Reduced
to practice and it is injuriona.
,The tens of
thousands of of necessary to carry out, the
work of the grernment must be filled by men
who can unite In harmony with the officers
elected by the people, otherwise discord wi'd
prevail and the efforts of those in charge of the
government become paralizerl.There—iis no
moral responsibility on the part of • Dcmocrat
to make a Republican Administration sueeessiL
fnl. On the contrary, lux allegiance to his par
ty will prompt him to throw all his . persoial
and official inflnenee to bring bask into power
the party of his choice. The Democratic and
the Republican party since 1856 hare been eon
froUting each other like two well trained op
posing armies... The first great battle was a
drawn' one, with' all the substantial fruits of
victory in favor of the Democrats. Bnehanan

splendid Republican victory. Trio :Democrats

l',the 'sweeping whirlwind and.iheir rally In 1864
.was the totirn stand of a blinker*, demoralized
amts covering a die/list:one retreat. Tic:ti! brill
lila rietory of 1,86.1 should Kaye finished the
/ career of the Democratic party.-41ardli a for
. torn hope was left for the "nuterrilled " to rally
around. But this magnanimity which heti crept
into this civil service commission fostered the
shattered party and give it a now life. Demo
crats received especial favors. Onod loyal men
who Lad shown their devotion to their country,
were set aside or denied position to make room
for men who did all they could not only,to
break the party, but to destioy the governinent.
This mistaken policy on the part elf the Repub
lican Party has had its results. The Democrat
ic party has grown in strength. It hail perfect
ed its ancient organization. It has reclaimed
servitor the ground lost, and its rank and file
are sanguine of a complete victory in 1872. It
is idle to say that their hopes are visionary.
The signs of the times aro' not altogether
against them. Btates Which in'lB6l were remit).
an, hare gone over to the democrats. The
temporizing policy pursued toward the south
has given the political control of that section
into the bends of the democracy. Many states
hitherto known as Republican strongheNs are
trembling in the balance. Why is this - )A*
the principles of the party kola dear to the 2154 -
ple than in 1864? Hare they grown tired 44
loyalty, and indifferent to the nation? Not at'
all! The presentindifferenee is the legittmete
result of the magnanimous policy of putting
democrats in power and failing to recognize
_ the right and necessity ot putjing llermbliearis
in every fillies under the control of Oat govern
ment. - Throw open the patronige of the gov
ernment to the demoCrats and republicans
alike,and the result will be a democratic victory
in 1872, a general turning out of repnblicans
—and the filling of every office with the pet fol.
