TUE TRIALS OF OFFICE.
It is generally regarded as a most enviable
thing to be appointed to a responsible or lu
crative office under the Government. The
siege of Washington, which has been be
leaguered for two months past by a hungrier
invasion than ever threatened the Capital in
the days of the Rebellion, attests how highly
men prize the glory and emolument of public
office. In the distribution of office, however,
the President has not been always guided by
the amount of importunity or pressure, but
by hie general sense of the fitness of things.
And eo it has come to pass that, in various
- -
parts of the country, quiet; orderly, unoffend
ing gentlemen have been selected for positions
in which they suddenly find thetnselves
plunged into a sea of troubles, by the myriad
seeking to be fed with the "five loaves and
two small fishes" which they have to die
tribute in the shape of subordinate appoint
ments.
"Uneasy reste the hood that wears a crown,"
but the head that wears the commission of
any important office does not rest at all.
The single case of the worthy and excel
lent gentleman who has been appointed
Collector of this Port will suffice for illustra
lion. No sooner was it rumored from Wash
ington that there was a probability of Mr.
Moore's nomination,than his trials began; and
by the time that he actually received hit
commission he was beset by a great company
whom no man could number, bent upon
assisting the new Collector in the discharge
of his complicated duties. Men of all ages
and conditions; men who could scarcely
write, seeking first-class clerkships; blind
men, desiring inspectorships; lame men, de
mending to be made runners; men, upon
whose strong breath Mr. Moore might have
hung his hat, demanding to be storekeepers;
everybody, in fact, claiming the position for
which he was peculiarly unfitted; and all
oining in the one grand idea that nobody's
claims should be considered until somebody's
claim was satisfied.
Now Mr. Collector Moore had less than a
hundred offices to dispose of. Be could
make about ninety vacancies by clearing out
the Bread and Butter Brigade of the late An
drew Johnson, a duty in which any honest
Republican would engage with sincere
pleasure. But the applicants were numbered,
not by hundreds, but by thousands. Day
after day they poured in their applications;
some based on political services, some on po
litical promises, some on military services,
some on personal and pressing necessities,
some on the score of friendship, some on one
thing and some on another,hut each petitioner
presenting claims superior to those of all
others.
The collector was hunted as he had never
been hunted before. The frogs of Egypt
were not more all-pervading than were these
four thousand anxious seekers after Custom
House favors. At the Custom House, Mr.
Moore was double-locked in his private
room, and guards were stationed in the ante
rooms, to keep back the rush. At home, it
was little better. Letters Blipped themselves
into his dressing-gown and crept beneath his
dinner plate. His door-steps, his entry, his
parlors, his staircases,were beset with patient
intruders upon hie privacy. For two weeks,
Mr. Moore was not permitted to eat a meal in
peace. No wonder that his spare form grew
thinner, and his features more sharp and
anxious. He could oblige less than one man
in every forty,and the task of refusing or dis
appointing the thirty-nine hundred whom he
would have been glad to oblige, has been the
hardest duty that is likely to devolve upon
Lim during his term of office. The offices
have at last all been filled, and the weary
Collector rests from his labors.
The appointments have been made with
an anxious regard to the fitness of the appli
cants, preference being constantly given to
honorably discharged soldiers. More than
half of the offices have been filled from this
class, and we congratulate Mr. Moore not
only that, his herculean task being now
ended, he may now resume his domestic
peace and quiet, but that the task has been
done eo welt is caieie only a specimen
of what many others are enduring, but we
cite it as a marked illusiralion of the trials
and troubles of public office.
)Ir. Bailly's fine marble statute of Wash
i ngt op, paid for by the contributions and
labors of the pith& schools in this city, is
ready to be erected in front of the State
Honee. But< several thousand dollars .are
needed to place it on a suitable pedestal. IPA
now we see that the school children are ex
pected to raise this sum also. We protest
against this tax upon them. The money
ought to be promptly supplied .by the full
grown rich men of Philadelphia, and not by
the poor children. Proper effort,made in the
right direction, would undoubtedly procure
the money in a 'few days. The school
children have done nobly in paying the
sculptor. They ought not to be asked to
contribute another dollar.

GRANDFATHER'S SUNDAY COAT.
It was of home-made woven stuff,
A genuine azure blue ;
And Grandma wove the cloth herself
In seventeen ninety-two.
It was not cut as coats are now ;
The sleeves were made so tight,
Re bad to rise to put it on
Before the morning light.
With collar of tremendous size,
This venerable coat
Rose up against the back of his head
And warmed his neck and throat.
Bo queer in those peculiar days
The fashions did prevail,
The hinder part of the coat was shaped
Much like a swallow's tall.
They kept things long in Grandpa's days
From records, it appears,
That ho wore this most remarkable coat
Borne fifteen or twenty years.
But coats are nicer and cheaper now ;
You can buy for a trifle, or more,
Better coats than Grandfather ever saw
At Rockhill & Wilson's Store.
Brass Coats with Blue Buttons are all the go
now for evening entertainment. Light Pants of
delicate hues and tasteful cut enable the Ameri
can citizen of the most moderate means to out
shine her Majesty's subjects in the new court rig
just inaugurated for her receptions.
Everything in the masculine clothes line that
male human can want, for business or pleasure,
at prices so far below what our grandpirents
used to pay, that If those venerable persons were
to call in and see, they would open their eyes so
wide that their measure could not be Liken.
Do you want the worth of your money ? Then

A FALL IN INIIISES.V.
strange Accident In Pittsburgh—Three
Thousand Barrels of Whisky Pre
cipitated from the fifth Story to the
Basementof a Bonded Warehouse.
The Pittsburgh Commercial otj yesterday says
About three o'clock yesterday afternoon the
residents of South Pittsburgh were astonlehed by
a terrific crash which shook the buildings in the
v:ctinty of the railroad bridge. and led the people
to suppose 'bat they had suffered a ligut shuck
f en earthquake.
The alarm was caused 1,- the eir l no:.way of c.
onion of the fifth tkor of Joeph S Finch N.,
C 's bonded warehouse 011 Chestnut street,
seuth Pittsburgh, end the precipitation of about
Elate e thousand barrete of whisky from the filth
story to the ground.
In the afternoon the superintendent of the dia
tWery was in the bonded warehouse, and noticed
that one of the steam pipes by which the boiler
is heated was leaking. Ile called the auntie(' of
one of the workmen to the matter, and said that
he would go down town and procure some ma
terial necessary to repair It. Tne men employed
about the building, five in number, thought
they would assist in the matter, and
visited the fifth story. Soon after, a
el 140:11 cracking noise was heard
to proceed from the floor, and
the men all flea in alarm, fearing that the build
ing would fall. They all beat a hasty retreat
down the four flights of stairs and left the build
ing in double Quick time. They were not a
moment too soon, for just after they had left the
upper floor gave way, and three thousand of the
five thousand barrels of whisky stored in the fifth
story were precipitated with a terrible crash to
the ground floor, carrying with them the floors
of the fourth, third and second stories. The
barrels of whisky rolled and tumbled on one
another, and made a terrible noise, bat
fortunately doing no serious damage.
It is estimated that about fifty barrels wore de
stroyed, and the lose of the liquor and the dam
age to the building will perhaps reach $lO,OOO,
but may not reach that amount. The east wall
had a couple of holes made in It, each about four
feet square, and it is thought the entire wall will
have to be rebuilt, although it inly be strength
ened.
Some curious Incidents are related concerning
the accident. It is stated that soon after the fall,
end as soon as it became circulated about the
torough that fifty barrels of whisky were ran
ting away in consequence of the accident, the in
temperately disposed people, of the borough re
paired in largo numbers to the warehouse and
made desperate efforts to save the whisky, many
of them getting in a highly intoxicated condition
in consequence.

EiATIFIIDAY, May 1, 1869.-We have no change to note in
the tenor of the market to-day, which continues its even
course. The tendency of the money current is evidently
from the country towards the sea board, and this fact
naturally contributes to the easier feeling of the money

ness purposes, and at very moderate rates and this
fact just now adds considerably to the activity of the

go before two hours. Mart then offered money
to Quinn, Jr., wbo volunteered, together with a
fellow, called Duchle, to take him over In a skiff.
Mart had shown in the tavern a roll of ;bank
notes. Instead of taking him to Camden, they
took him to League Island, made him go on

robbed him of $l2O and an Odd Fellows'
badge, and left him, supposing him to be dead.
The man recovered and took out warrants for the

panion, is still at large.

Lopez Carrying on a Guerilla War
The Alabama Claims
Continued Comments on Sumner's Speech
Another Libel Suit in New York
By the Atlantic Cable.
Losnon,May I.—The mails from Rio Janeiro
contain details of the war in Paraguay. The
partisans of Lopez were numerous and active in
the Cerro Leon and Logos districts, where they
were pursuing guerilla warfare. T he allies sent
a gunboat expedition up the Parana river, which
had returned and reported that no fortification
had been discovered on the banks. Paranbas,
with 8,000 men, was on the eve of marching for
Villa Ries, which was still in possession of the
Paraguayans.
Panes, May I.—The protocol for the confer
ence between France and Belgium has been
signed.
MAnnin, May I.—ln the Cortes yesterday,
Estrada's amendment to the constitution, abol
ishing the prerogative of the crown in ecr,lealse
deal matters, was rejected. The ilmitatiois,ot
the spiritual jurisdiction of the church was then
disenteed until the adjournment.
Lennon, May I.—The English press continues
to review Sumner's speech on the Alabama
claims which occasions no little anxiety in poli
tical circles. The Times, at the conclusion of a
long article, says the Queen's proclamation of
neutrality at the beginning of the rebellion was a
prohibition, and not an authorization of blockade
runners, sad the only real evil caused by it was
the position given to the Alabama in English
ports, which point would have come within the
operations of the rejected treaty.
Another Libel Snit.

editor of the New York Times, was arrested at
the suit of Frederick A. Lane, one of the direc
tors of the Erie Railroad, for libel in the money
artiste of the Times, of April 29th, stating that
the amount of the earnings of the Erie Railroad
are converted by Lane, exclusively and entirely
to the private use of himself, Gould and Fisk, in
speculation. He was held in ten thousand dol
lars bail.
