EDITORIAL NOTES.
A contemporary puts the third term
business in tho riht light when it says
that "thre is not written or unwritten
law against a third term but in the case
of Grant there would be a majority ol
obout 1.000,000 against it, which would
perhaps answer the same purpose."
Pennsylvania would give a huudrcd
thousand of that.
There would seem to bo something
unattractive about the Stato Treasurer's
offico of Ohio. Qovetncr Allen ap
pointed J. M Milhkeo, the Repub
lican eloct to tho vacant Treasurorsbip
but he declned, when the appointment
Was tendered to Hon. A. T. Wykoff,
Chairman of the llcpublicanState Com:
raitce, but he also has declined The ol
Dice is still vacant
Judgo Van Brunat, of New York,
committed a singular freak, not to say
crime, some time ago. He compelled
his wife to procure a divorce for him
and then in violation oi the statuie
which prohibits his re-marring, wont to
England and, married an English (fill.
The judge in still abroad having Le?n
traveling a portion oi the time, and ill
of brain fever another portion. It is
demanded that the governor remove
him from tho bench, and appoint some
one who knows how to keep the laws,
in his place.
At the approaching session of con
gress ex-Spcaker Blaine proposes to
move an amendment to the constitution
to provide that l,no money raised by
taxation in any state for the support ol
public schools or derived from any pub
lic luud therefor, shall ever bo under
the control ol any religions sect, nor
shall auy money so raued ever be divi
ded between religious sects or denomina
tions." Such a provision is incorporated
in the new constitution of this state,
but there arc few others that have so
provided, and probably Mr Blaine's plan
is the one best to adopt to secure a
speedy settlement of a disturbing que
tion.
It is popularly supposed that, in the
excitement icllowing the assassination
of "resident Lincoln and the impeach
ment of Andriw Johnson, the question
ol tho succession to the Presidency in
the emergency of tho death of the
President, Vice Presidetit, President ol
the Senate and Speaker of the House,
was settled by Congress in the passage
of an act intended to remedy the de
lects of the law of 1792. It is certain
that it was proposed at that time to
amend the act referred to so as to pro
vide that in case of the four vacancies
above specilied the Chief Justice of the
United States, and after him the Asso
ciate Judges of the Supreme Court in
the order of their sonority of their ap
pointment, should become PresiJuui.
A bill to this effect was proposed iu
Congress. Indeed, some go so far as to
assert that the bill pasted both houses
of Congress and became a law, but there
is no record of it to be found in the
documents ol Congress for the past six
teen years. Even it it had been euacted
as is asserted, it would uow be null au'j
void 'or the reason that it was not codi
fied into the. last Revised Statutes ol
the United States, and being omitted
therefrom would, under the law ol
1873 stand repealed. Thero is no way
cow of supplying the delect of the law
ofI792 other than by special act ol
Congress declaring the line of succes
sion to the Presidency, and making ii
long enough to obviate the- remotest
probability of such an emergeucy as has
been suggested by the death oi vice
President Wilson.

There has been in the last few days
a decided change in the weather As
jet we Lavo bad no snow, but the
ground is frtzen and with the present
temperature could we have a few inches
of snow we would have pood slcghing
which is unusual in this climate- The
farmers around have concluded their
tall work and are dow Mpiuly briotiiiu
in the products of the season. Produce

The fare in the hotel ranges front $2.50
to $4,50 per day, with the reduction of
about one-third by the month, in the
boarding-houses it ranges from $10 to
$75 per month, according to locatioo
Dd jooids it has become qu;te custo.
mar of late for Congressmen and
others of means to rent rooms without
board and fake tbeir meals at first-class
iotela. Tbis, of course, is oo account of

a k .
fMlToiF IT Tip
being able to get better looms at less
price than can be obtained at the hotels,
tt is calculated that the Centennial will
improve Washington, in a business
point of view, as much as any city iu
the country, with the exception of
Philadelphia. Very few it is thought
of those who come from foreign
countries and those in the rcmoto sec
tions ol this couniry, will fuil to visit
Washington. Tho railroad companies
are already aroused to the necessity ol
affording moro accommodations for
navel during the Centennial months
This will necessitate the running ol
more trains. There is an effort mndc
on tho part of our cititetts. to get the
railroad companies between Pliilndel
phia and this city, to issue excursion
tickets at reduced rates.
Only two days more anil we shall
witness the meeting of Cougress. Every
train arriving in I his city is filled with
members of the First, Second and Third
Houses, and applicants for office in the
next Democratio House Never before
in the recollection of your correspon
dent has there been so much excitement
two days preceding the meeting of Con
gress. The first questions asked on the
arrival ol ihose offiie-srekcrs arc: ''Who
is going to be Speaker?" "Who is going
to be Clerk?" "Who is going to be
Sergeant at Arms?" "Who i going to
be Postmaster in the House?" These
questions are asked lor ihe purpose ol
ohtaining tho probable one, evidently to
determine .whom they should support
with a view of getting offico. It is es
timated there are now at least one hun
dred applicants for posiiion in the
House, where there is one lo give. II
one out of every ten of these office
seekers should come to Washington,
which will probably be the ease, we
will have three or fourthou?aud hungry
dejected looking individuals, button
holing their respective democratic mem
bers. This will be a strange sight iu
deed. The present Republican officers
clerks door keepers, etc , will, of course
hold their places until their respective
successors are elected or appointed. A
few ol the present force hope to retain
their positions and will uso every effort
to that end. Possibly some may be
enmo newly converted Democrats
Their hopes, however are groundless.
In talking with a prominent M. C-, yes
terday, your correspondent was told
that there would be an entirely new
dual, with the exception of the poliee
ol the Capitol, who hold their positions
by the joint appointment of the Sar
Kcants at Arms ol the Senate and the
House aud 'he Architect of the Capitol
two of whom being ncccessarily Repub
licans, it is doubt I til whether there will
bo any great ehmge in the police force.
The last official art of Vice I resident
Wilson was to supersede Mr. Howell
restaurant-keeper of the Senate by the
appointment of a Mr. Dempster of 1W
tou. Mr. lloweil of curse became
irrently incensed, and since the deth of
the Vice President, has been labnrirg
arduously to get reinstated. The
position ol restaurant-keeper ol either
the Senate or the House, is very lucra
tive and lor ll.nt reasou importaut. Mr.
Howell has already had his bil's ol fare
and order-slip printed and appears sun
uine thst they will yet be of ue l'
him. There are now many applicants
tor this position on the House sitta
Members of both parties are being button-holed
on their arrival by them
Thus far it would uppar that Ti m
laibin ol the National Hotel rvho ha
been very industrious during tho pat
year in seeking ibis positiou stands
ahead.
Wo learn that the Report of the
Commissioner of iviucatiun tor IK.-l
recently published is not in the hand.-
of tho Commissioners for general distri
bution. Parties wishing this document
should address their members of Con
aress. The Senate has 5000 copies lor
distribution and the House 2000.
The friends ol the Vice President,
pro tern, of the Senate T. W. Ferry.
were, some days since considerably ex
orcisc over rumors that the East were
favorable lo the election ot Senator An
thony to the Vice Presidency, aud the con
sequence is that there has been consider-
erable commotion in the politic: caldron
It is dow conceded however, by the ma
iniity of both the Iriends of Ferry and
Anthony, that the lormer has ihe inside
of ihe track. Senator Ferry is man
ol no ordinary caliber. He makes a
j;ood presiding officer.
The exeiieuieut wos treat in the
Treasury to day, caused by the rumor
that secretary Brisiow hud resigned
While the rumor is unfounded, the
knowing ones believe in his early re
tiremeot from the Cabinet. Also it is
not improbable that Mr. Jewell will feel
like relinquishing his lurttnUo verv
soto. In his report a year siuce it will
bo remembered that be said that it wa
the first time hi his life that he found
I imself at the bead of a department
that was not self sustaining, aud intima
ted to the country that he was going to
tireut iv reduce the expense ot his do
putt went. His report this year, which
has so mysteriously got into papers in
advance ot tho President's Messt.gc
shows that t'oo expenses ot the I. O
Department are $1,500,000 in excess
ol last year.
If appear from reports just received
from the Democratio caucus now in
session iu the Capitol, that the East
ern and Middle States will be ignnred
in the selection ol the Ollic s in ihe text
lloustt. Ol the five vliich hare jus'
been nominated, Adams, Thompson,
iMtzhugh, Stewart aud J ownseuci, rol
one comes north of Mason aud Dixou'
