MAIL MATTER.
Postmaster J nine' Resignation.
Postmaster General .Tallies lias
written and forwarded to President
Artlnir his olHelal letter of resignation
as a (Cabinet official, to take effect on
the first of January next.
The friends of Postninsti'r-fleneral
James deeply regret that he is com
pelled to leave the PostofTlee Depart
ment lr advance of the elose of the
flsenl year. When General James left
Washington last Friday, it was wifh
the expectation that ho could arrange
his business nfl'airs in Xcw York so as
to be able to remain in the Cabinet far
into the summer. A conference with
the directors of the Lincoln National
Uailk, of which he is President, has
since convinced him that it would be
impracticable to neglect his private af
fairs longer than the 1st of January,
and he has asked the President to ac
cept his resignation on that date. Mr.
James' successor will not be named by
the President until after the holiday
recess.
Presidential Succession.
Phllnilclplila Press.
Senator Garland has introduced a
bill modifying the act of 178!) in regard
to the Presidential succession by pro
viding that in case of the removal by
death, resignation or inability of the
President and Vice-President, the
Hecrctary of State, or if there be none,
the Heeretary of the Treasury, or in
lieu of him the Secretary of War shall
act as President, instead of the Presi
dent pro tern, of the Senate, or
Speaker of the House as now provided.
Some journals criticise Mr. Garland's
bill, insisting that the Cabinet otlleer
mentioned should be added to the
"present line of succession rattier than
(substituted for it. The change Mr.
Garland proposed is however, n highly
desirable one. It was a mistake to
put the President pro tern, and Speaker
in the Presidential succession in the
first place. They are not oltlcers of
the United States but of the separate
Houses of Congress, and hold their
office only at the pleasure of those
bodies. Should President pro tern.
Davis now succeed to President
Arthur's place several serious (jues
tions would arise at once. Would he
continue to be Senator and President
pro teii. of the Senate, as well as Ac
ting President of the United States, or
would his tenure of the lesser office
cease on his assumption of the greater.
Senator Morton held that it would not,
aud in such a case, the one succeed
ing to the President's duties would
have to continue Senator and Presi
dent pro teui., in order to be President.
As the Senate can change its President
pro tem. at pleasure, it could therefore
change the Acting President of the
United States at its discretion. The
same difficulties apply in the case of
Speaker. The Secretary of State, who
is an executive officer and necessarily
in sympathy with the Administration,
providentially or otherwise termina
ted, is the proper person to administer
the office of President until the people
can fill the vacancy.
Newark, N. J., Dec. 12 The
agreement of the directors of the Mech
anics' National Hank is still in the
hands of counsel, and will not be
made public until to-morrow. It pro
vides, it is understood, that nine
directors shall contribute $"('(1,000 to
pay depositors under S'200 in full, and
other depositors seventy-five per cent,
within three months, provided the
creditors- agree to surrender their
olahns against the institution; also,
to relieve the stockholders of their as
sessment, provided they assign their
share to a person to bedesignated by the
directors. The amount which may be
realized from Nugent & Co., will be
divided pro rata, In addition to the 73
per cen t.
The only way which the Chicago
Tribune sees to assure the advantages
of common school education every
where, and to enjoy the resulting
benefit of the more intelligent citizen
ship, is to create a National fund that
shall he ample to support schools in all
the States aud Territories, wid to
make the distribution thereof subject
to such conditions as shall guarantee
the extension of equal school facilities
to all races, all classes and all sects.
Chicago handles about one-third
of the entire forest products of the vast
pineries of the Northwest. Millions
of acres of timber lands in Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and Il
linois are tributary to her market.
The entire product of these pineries
last year in manufactured lumber
amounted to about 5,750,000,000 feet,
and, according to the best estimates at
this date, the production for the pres
ent year will show an excess of at least
twelve per cent..

Washington, Deo. 12. The Preal
dent sent to the Senate to-day the
nomination of ex-Senator Freder
ick T. Frelinghuysen, of New
Jersey, to be Secretary of State. The
nomination was confirmed as soon as
It was read, and so far as known it
meets with the cntlreapproval of every
member of the Senate. Few Secre
taries of Slate have ever entered office
under more fovorable circumstances.
Several days will probably pass be
fore Mr. Frelinghuysen, who is now
at bis home in Newark, assumes the
duties of office. By diligent work
since President Garfield's death Secre
tary Iflnine has relieved the State De
partment of Its urgent business, and on
the day that Mr. Frelinghuysen be
comes in reality the Secretary of State,
a new administration of the office will
begin, unincumbered by the affairs of
his predecessor. The ex-Secretary,
who lias been eon 11 nod lu Washing,
ion since the return of the Cabinet
from Cleveland, has announced his
intention of spending a few days at
the Atlanta Exposition, and will possi
bly travel a week or two in the South.
He will spend the winter in his new
lesidence near the British Legation,
which is now in course of completion.
Secretary Frelinghuysen is expected
to arrive in Washington on Wednes
day. A SKETCH OK THE CAREER OK Til E
NEW 8ECKKTAKY.
Frederick T. Frelinghuysen was
born August 4, 1.H17. He is the son of
Frederick Frelinghuysen and grand
son of General Frederick Frelinghuy
sen, a soldier in the Revolution, whose
grandfather was an eminent clergy
man in Somerset County, New Jersey,
in the early history of the colony. As
the name indicates, the family is of
Holland origin. Frederick Freling
huysen, the father of the ex-Senator,
died in 1820 after filling various prom
inent positions. Upon his death,
Frederick T. Frelinghuysen, then
three years old, was adopted by Sena
tor Theodore Frelinghuysen, his
uncle, who was a leading man in pub
lic affairs during his day, the nominee
of the Whigs for Vice President with
Henry Clay, Attorney -General of
New Jersey and of the United States,
Seuator of the United States, Chan
cellor of the University of New York,
and president of Rutgers College,
which position he held at the time of
his death in 100. In 1S3 Frederick
T. Frelinghuysen was graduated at
Rutgers College and three years later
was admitted to the bar. He began
practice in Newark and was early
elected City Counsel. Soon after its
construction he became counsel of the
Central' Railroad Company of New
Jersey, the Prosecutor of the Pleas of
Essex County, and in 1SG1 a member
of the Peace Commission at Washing
ton. Later in the year he was ap
pointed Attorney-General of New
Jersey by Governor Olden, and in
18G0 was reappointed by Governor
Ward Soon alter his reappointment
the death of United States Senator
William Wright occurred, and Mr.
Frelinghuysen was appointed in his
place. The position was one to which
his ambition led him, and the duties
of which he felt ability to perform
with credit to his State. In 1807 the
Legislature elected hint to fill the un
expired term, aud he then began a
career which was distinguished
throughout- Re-elected for the full
term of six years in 1871, lie served on
the Judiciary, Foreign Relations, Fi
nance, Railroads, and other Commit
tees, and was Chairman of that on
Agriculture. He was nominated in
1870 by President Grant as Minister to
England, but declined after having
been unanimously confirmed. When
Senator Sumner died, lie left his work
of passing the Civil Rights bill to Mr.
Frelinghuysen, and it was the hitter's
efforts that finally secured it to the
colored race. During the excitement
following the war and during the
whole of President Grant's adminis
trations, he hud a prominent part iu
every contest, ami his biography for
that time would be a history of Na
tional legislation. On financial mat
ters he was always a "hard-money"
man, and on the tariff a pronounced
Protectionist. He was particularly
prominent in the debates on the
Washington Treaty; introduced and
advocated until it passed the Senate
the bill against polygamy in Utah,
and the Japanese indemnity bill, and
successfully opposed the bill granting
Southern sufferers by the Rebellion
compensation for damages.
Mr. Freliughuysen's last session as
a Seuator was exciting. His term
ended March 4, 1877, Senator Mc
Phersou, Democrat, having been elect
ed by a majpiity in the New Jersey
Legislature as his successor. The ses
sion of 187G-1877 opened with the re
sult of the Presidential election in
doubt. General Henry Wattersou of
the Louisville Courier Journal had
begun his talk of marshalling 100,000
Democrats at the Capital to see that
Samuel J. Tilden was sworn in, while
Zaehariah Chandler stuck to the text
of the notice he had posted in the Re
publican headquarters on F. street:
"Hayes has 185 votes and is elected."
The various schemes for settling the
constitutional difficulties that had
arisen were early discussed and gen
erally rejected. The Semite was Re
publican and the House Democratic.
A proposition was finally made for
the appointment of a committee on
the part of the Senate and House, to
be composed of an equal number of
Democrats and Republicans, with
power to consider the whole subject
and report thereon. Leading men
were selected by each branch, aud Mr.
Frelinghuysen was one. The bill
providing for au electoral count by
memlcrs of the Senate, House and
Justices of the Supreme Court was
devised, Senators Edmunds, Cotikllng
and Frellnehuysen leading in the
work. Eachoftbethrecmadespeeches
on the passage of the bill, apparently
dividing the three points it contained
among them. To be brief, the bill
passed, and Mr. Frelinghuysen, Mr.
Edmunds, Mr. Morton, Mr. Rayard,
and Mr. Tlitirmnii were selected to
represent the Senate on the greatest
jury ever impaneled. The result is
known the world over. During the
deliberations Mr. Freliughuysen's part
was a prominent one, and his col
leagues expressed an indebtedness to
him, which was extensively compli
mentary. Singularly enough, the
fifteenth member of the Electoral Com
mission, Justice Joseph P. Bradley,
was a college mute with Mr. Freling
huysen, lived the most of his life
within a block of him in Newark aud
studied law in the same office.
The elose of the session of Congress
in 1877- left Mr. Frelinghuysen weak
ened in health from over-exertion. He
returned to Ills old country home on
the bunks of the Ruritan, iu Somerset
County, New Jersey, and rested. He
then resumed practice in the United
States Supreme Court and in the Sup
reme Court and Court of Chancery of
New Jersey. He has taken no active
part in politics since then, except as
an occasional public speaker. He was
known among his friends as an advo
cate of General Grant's nomination tit
Chicago in 1KS0, but made no personal
effort to secure a delegation from New
Jersey in his favor. He supported
President Hayes during his contests
within the party, and was a warm
adherent and earnest advocate of
General Garfield's election, until pre
vented by u malarial attack from any
personal particpatioti iu thecampuign.
Personally Mr. Frelinghuysen is tall,
erect and handsome, with a line head,
set nobly on Ills shoulders. His face,
clean shaven, is impressive and intel
lectual. His eyes are grey and clear
and quick. He resides in Newark
when not at his country. seat or at the
watering places, and has a handsome
house there, as well as one in Wash
ington. Ho lias three sons, the eldest
being the present Receiver of the
Mechanics' National Hunk at Newark,
and three daughters. In many ways
ho is the ideal of what has been called
the true American aristocrat intel
lectual, shrewd, wealthy, of a tine old
family, pure life courtly manners,
handsome presence, easy humor and
dignified without being at all unap
proachable. His closest personal friends
iu Washington during his term as
Senator are said to have been Senator
Edmunds, Justice Bradley, Secretary
Hamilton Fish and President Grant.
Mr. Frelinghuysen is not lacking iu
experience in the office of Secretary
of State, having been a working mem
ber of the Committee on Foreign Re
lations of the Senate for years, and
possessing a familiarity with the de
partment whicli few other Senators
boast of at the time of his Senatorial
service, backed by the education of a
scholar, the instincts of a man of sense
and the heart of a gentleman. He is
an eloquent speaker, possessing to a
marked degree the requirements of an
orator.

Colonel John W. Forney died At Ilia
resilience in Philadelphia at 8;30 A.
M. Friday, December 9, 1881.
John Weiss Forney was born at Lan

18,13 he became an apprentice in the
printing office of the Lancaster
Journal, and In 183" editor and Joint
proprietor of the Lancaster Intcttipcn
ccr; in 1840 he united that paper

long the editor of the J'ennty Iranian,
one of the most decided of Democratic
journals. In 1851 he was chosen clerk

sentatives, and was re-elected in 18'3.
Meanwhile his connection with the

signed this post in 1850, returned to
Pennsylvania ami was chosen chair
man of t lie Democratic state commit

Democratic candidate for the olliee of
United States Senator, but was defeated
by Mr. Cameron, and on August 1 fol
lowing begun in Philadelphia the pub
lication of the rreim, an independent
Democratic journal. Although he
advovated the election of Mr. Ruch
anun to the Presidency, he became a
determined opponent of his adminis
tration when the Iiccomplon constitu
tion of Kansas ' became the topic of
public debute, and he was again chosen
clerk of the house of representatives
in the Thirty-sixth congress by the
Republicans. .During the civil war he

Horrible Calamity.
Pittsburgh. Pa., Dec. 10. This
morning at 4 o'clock a (ire occurred at
Gibson Station, Pittiburgh and Erie
railroad, seven miles from here, in a
shanty where nearly fifty railroad
workmen boarded and were sleeping
at the time. Ten of the men were
burned to death, three more were
fatally burned, and four others maimed
for life.
Twenty-three of the occupants of
the loft succeeded in squeezing
through the openings, some with
underclothing on fire, others rushed
frantically across the room uttering
agonizing cries, but the smoke speed
ily suffocated them. The survivors
writhed in pain and fchlwrcl in the
frosty air. The sufferers were cared
for as soon as possible and brought
here on a special train. All the men
lived in Pittsburgh, and their families
being notified of the calamity, the
scene at the depot, when the charred
remains readied here, was heartrend
ing. Tht names of the dead are Patrick
Foley, James Kearns, Johu Kennedy,
Michael Doyel, Michel Donahue,
John Reilly, Thomas Foster, John
Conntrs, John Duffy and Patrick
Clancy. The fatally burned are
Michael Morlin and Patrick Ford.
The maimed are Johu Riley, Michael
Leonard, John Connolly and Hugh
McCune.
The men were sound asleep after a
very hard day's work, and it was ow
ing to tlie great gain the lire hud at
tained beforo its heat awakened the
men, and to their utter confusion at
their situation, that the loss of lifo
was no great. As it wus no survivor
escaped entirely unhurt or with more
clothing than he had been sleeping iu.
The building was a rude board
structure.forty-three laborers sleeping
in the loft formed by the sloping roof
and the two openings for light were
closed at night by sliding doors. The
loft was filled with straw aud other
combustible material and thestrueture
burned almost like powder. The
stairs leading to the loft were a little
better than a ladder.
The fire was caused by the explosion
of a lump in the kitchen. The keeper
of the house, who was up, aroused his
wife and the servant girls and they all
escaped. The keeper shouted to the
men up stairs, but the flumes spread
Willi great rapidity cutting oil' all
means of escape that wuy.

The Sun.
NEW YORK, 1882.
The Bun for 1882 will make It fift
eenth annual revolution under the
present management, shining, as
always, for all big and little, mean and
gracious, contented and uubappy, Rep
ublican and Democratic, depraved aud
vituous, intelligent and obtuse. Tmk
Sum's light is for mankind And
womankind of every sort; but Its genial
warmth is for the good, while it pours
hot discomfort on the blistering backs
of the persistently wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was a newspaper of
a new kind. It discarded many of.
the forms, and a multitude of thesuer
fluous words and phrases of anelent
Journalism. It undertook to report In
a fresh, succinct, unconventional way
all the news of the world, omitting no
event of human interest, and commen
ting upon affairs with the fearlessness
of absolute Independence. The suc
cess of this experiment was the success
of TitK Hun. It effected a permanent
change in the style of American news
papers. Every important Jourunl cut
ablished in this country in the d07.cn
years past has been modelled after
Tiik Sun. Every Important Journal
already existing has been modified
and bettered by the force of Thr
Sun's example.
The Sun of 1882 will be the same
outspoken, trutbtclling, uud interest
ing newspaper.
Uy a liberal use of the means which
an abundant prosperity affords, we
shall make it better than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting
It Into readable shape, and measuring
its importance, not by the traditional
yardstick, hut by its real Interest to the
people. Distance from Printing House
Square Is not the first consideration
with The Sun. Whenever anything
happens worth reporting we get the
particulars, whether it happens In
Brooklyn or in Bokhara.
In politics we havedecided opinions;
and are accustomed to expresstliem in
language that can be understood. We
say what we think about men and
events. That habit is the only secret
of The Sun's political course.
The Weekly Sun gathers Into
eight pages the best matter of the
seven dally Issues. An Agricultural
Department of of unequalled merii, full
market rejiorts. and a liberal propor
tion cf litarary, scientific, aud donatio
intelligence complete The Weekly
Hun, and make it the best newspaper
for the farmer's household that was
ever printed.
Who does not read and like The
Sunday Sun, each number of which
is a Ooleomla of interesting literature,
with the best poetry of the day, prose
every line worth reading, news, humor
matter enough to fill a good sized
book, and infinitely more varied and
entertauing than any book, big or lit
tle? If our Idea of what a newspaper
should be pleases you, send for The
Sun.
Our terms arc as follows:
For the daily Sun, a four page sheet
of twenty-eight columns, the price by
mail, ost paid, is 53 cents a month, or
Sti.SO a year; or.including the Sunday
paper, nn eight-page sheet of fifty-six
columns, the price is 65 cents per
month, or, $7.70 a year, postage paid.
The Sunday edition of The Sun Is
also furnished separately at $1.SM u
year, postage paid.
The price of the Weekly Sun,
eight pages, fifty-six columns, is $1 a
year, postage paid. For clubs of ten
sending (IU we will send nn extra
copy free.
