Eljeltiligt -- :;geg.tam ROBT.IREDRLL. JR., MORGAN R. WILLS Editor* mid Proprietors ALLENTOWN, PA., MARCH 24, 1809 TILE CIVIL SERVICE. Mr. Jenckes' report to Congress, on the sub ject of reform in the matter of appointments to public office, contains a vast amount of infor mation. Much of the report is composed of extracts from replies of public officers to inL terrogatorles. F. Z. Heebner, Assessor of this District, residing at Allentown, urges the reduction of the assistant assessors and the ex clusive devotion of all their time to the duties of the offiee . of the assistant assessors. Judge A. BroWer Longaker, recent Collector of Internal Revenue of the District, suggests monthly conferences between the collector and asses sors, with a view of securing a uniform assess ment, of detecting fraud and evasions of the revenue laws. Mr. Longaker does not think the per diem allowance for assistant assessors should be reduced, but urges a reform In the license to Tobacconists, 'who should be com pelled to pay their taxes on all cigars manu factured during each month, or else increase the bonds for each hand. Elsewhere in the Report appear the opinions of eminent Americans, living and dead, upon the subject of official patronage. henry Clay said in his speech in the Senate, January 26t11, 1832, in-opposition to Mr. Van Boron's nomination as Minister to England, that he was opposed to it on the ground that .Mr. Van Buren was among the first of the Secretaries to dismiss the clerks inks depart ment for the exercise of the elective franchise. He denounced the practice of rotation in of fice, on the principle of "to the victors belong the spoils," as a "detestable system, drawn " from the worst periods of the Roman repub " lie ; and if it were to be perpetuated—if the "offices, honors, and dignities of the people " were to be put up to a scramble, and to be " decided by the results of every presidential " election—our government and institutions, " becoming Intolerable, would finally end in n " despotism as inexorable as that of Constant'- . nople." It would be well to read and reflect upon the words of the dead statesman upon a subject now so prominently and practically before the American people. The quotation refers more to the practice of removals from office for opinion's sake merely, and does not of course argue in favor of the retention of incompetent officials, such as at present disgrace the coun try. The places of the thieving emissaries of Andrew Johnson once supplied with good, honest Republicans, the advice of Mr. Clay, more suitable on account of its age, should be heeded by those clothed with authority. The system proposed by Mr. Jenckes—to make merit, and not favor, the test for politi cal preferment—will sooner or later be adopt ed, in some form, and the disgusting and de moralizing piactice of trading in offices will almost if not entirely disappear. The suggestions of Judge Longaker, 'al ready quoted, if put into regular practice, would no doubt have a beneficial effect in the matter of nAsessing and collecting the taxes of the District. THE NEW CITY GOVERNMENT. The voters of Allentown evidently think that the generous practice of turn-about in the political complexion of our city government is fair play. • Last year the Republicans elected their Mayor, High Constable and Auditor, and this year the duties of those offices are entrust ed to Democrats, Col. Good receiving a ma jority of 200 for Mayor, and the High Consta ble and Auditor following with majorites of 185 and 114 respectively. We expect Col. Good will make a good Mayor and he will; therefore, not run the machine in the interests of the Democracy to the detriment of the Interests of the public. One of his first duties will be the appointment of his police officers, and we hope the main point to be held in view will be the selection of honest men who will do their duty without fear or favor. Allen town iY excessively loose in the execution of the laws. Rowdies have held full sway here for years. They congregate on corners, in dulge in obscene and profane language, and insult women without the faintest regard for decency, or the fear of justice being meted out to them. In no other city in the Union is such a thing permitted and it is only by the rigid exercise of the powers vested in our police that the practice can be broken up. The evil is on the increase, and we hope . Mayor Good will give it his immediate attention, and see to it that a radical reform is created in this re spect, or our city will not become in morals what our best citizens hope it may. The pros pects of the prosperity of our city are bright, the situation is an important one,our per cent= age of increase in population is greater than that of any other city in the State, and we promise to be the third city in the State, but what of all that if with beautiful residences, magnificent stores and general business pros perity, law and order are not to be preserved. PANS THE BEGISTItIi BILL. The decrease in the number of votes cast Last Friday, ni compared with the previous Fall election, shows how little Interested the people are In choosing election officers or how anxious to lie rid oWthe trouble and expense of standing about the polls and losing time in the Spring In 4ffing what can be better done at the General Election in the Fall. In some districts of this county persons are compelled to go six and eight miles on election day or do without voting. At this time in the year, when the roads are knee deep with mud, it is almost Impossible to either ride or walk, and rather than attempt doln, so many good citi zens forego the privilege of assisting in the selection of important local officers. The Legislature has the opportunity of cor recting the evil and . saving tax-payers a heavy unnecessary expense by passing the Registry Bill recently reported by Mr. Errctt. The bill might and probably will be amended in some respects, but the main features in it can be retained, chief of which is the change of time from the Spring to Fall for the election of district officers. It is absorb to oppose this reform on the ground that political bias will enter into local elections, for such is really the case now, audit is the exception where it is otherwise. The opening of the polls iu some - counties so late as 0 o'clock in the morning aud closing them at the hour of 8 in the evening is anoth er evil that will be remedied by the passage of the bill in question, which provides that for all elections hereafter held the pollp shall be 'Open between the hours of 0 and 7 o'clock, a. m., and po closed at 0 o'clock, p. m. This will give ample time for every voter to go to the polls. It will also afford election officers an opportunity to accomplish the labor of counting the votes before the midnight. hours arrive.. We refer again to this matter for the pur pose of Impressing upon the minds of our Legislators the propriety If not necessity of taking Immediate final action: The bill has been amply discussed and its provisions are familiar to the public. In the absence of pro- test, therefore, from any quarter, and know ing as' you do, Messieurs law-makers, that_ pro bono publics . should elide your actions, we see no reasons for delaying tye passage of the Registry DUI.

Tut: Congressional Committees announced by Speaker Blaine, show that the principal chairmanships have been awarded to two States, Ohio and Massachusetg. Ohio has four very Important chairmanships, to wit., Ways and Means, Banking and Currency, Agriculture, and Judiciary. Massachusetts has four also ; Appropriations, Reconstruction, Claims, and Foreign Affhirs. New York takes Reorganization of Civil Service, Pacific Rail road, Mines and Mining, Expenses of State State Department; and Expenses of Public Buildings, while Pennsylvania comes in for n crumb of comfort in Manufactures, Accounts, and Naval Athdrs. We are not aware that there Is any precedent for dividing these places as equitably as possible among the different States or not, but It seems singular that two States should happen to have a disproportion ate share of principal Chairmanships of Com mittees.
