A.LLENTOWN, PA., DEC. 28, 1871 TIRE CIVIL SERVICE The regulations under which appointments n the Civil Service are hereafter to be made Lave been published and we presume will have the effect of reforming many of the alitises which have heretofore existed. Our Government seems to ho advancing in the road to moral perfection and if it keeps on the occupation of the professional politician will soon be gone. One of the great objects of the now regulations Is to secure officials competent to fill the positions under the Government. To secure this the offices are to he formed into groups, and these groups will form ti sliding scale, running from highest to lowest in regular succession according to their im portance—ln a similar manlier in which our schools are graded. Applicants fir admission into the Civil Service must undergo an exami nation in reading, speaking end writing the English language. If they can do these satis factorily to the Board of Examiners they are recommended for an appointment in the low est group, which they get if there is a vacancy. .Promotions into the higher groups arc made from the next lower group. Inin officer in ri higher grolip become physically Incapacitated to perform the duties of his office he can be appointed to a position of lees importance in a lower group. Thus the Civil Service will be similar in effect to the Army, the Government appointing those to positions who can serve it best and•taking care of them after it has em ployed them, promoting them to vacancies ac cording to thcir capabilities and in no case recognizing the claim of anyb sly to a position because helms rendered ext ranrdi nary palitivnl service. If the designs of the Commitne wh recommended the regulations be carried vnt faithfully the Government will til'its Office in the same way that large Railway Corpora lions fill theirs, and Officers being protector from being throWn out in the cold at moment's notice and to suit the whims o an Influential politician, will not so often b prompted to steal, and will be more likely to thoroughly study the details or their (Alleys and make themselves masters of their positions. For several reasons we like the old way the best. As a general : thing we have had coin pc tent officers to fill the positions under the Government anti more frequently than not they have been the choim: of the majority of . the people, a consideration which is of great importance in a republican form of govern ment, where each voter is a sovereign, espec ially as the success of an oilier who comes directly in contact with the people depends so much upon his agreeableness to the people. School', and even thurighiness of College, cx• aminations frequently point out to us rising young men, who !Muth to their homes the centre of the most elevated expectations of their future usafulness. Their examinations In the mysteres of learning show them to be above the average of mortals, but their failure to apply what they have learned in the prac tical affairs of life disappoints, in too many cases, the hopes of their friends. Therefore the Examining Boards will need further proof of an applicant's fitness for a position than his mere mental capacity, and to get this tlicy will require testimonials of his business quali fications, moral character, etc., front the pee• pie who know hint, and these will be 11,, to perversions ns the old style " petitions." THE FOURTH EMI STRICT SENA 'IrOItNIE Two numbers back. soya 11,•• (1 , •-•e•-••.••• • Telegraph, in referring to the .livi don ,r p : i• ties in the State Senate, and the official di chi ration of the election 01' Mr. Weakly, we spok, of the vacancy existing in the Foor''lt •11striet. by the death of Mr. Can::' 11, who had jiol been chosen by a heavy majority fruit, th, r term. In this connection we inenti••ned the name of Col. A. K. McClure and spoke ap provingly of his qualifications for the tiliee,and our desire that lie might occupy it, provided there was no difficulty in the way as to his position toward the Administration of the General Government. \Ve knew he was ills.- satisfied in sonic way, but supposed he had Beim his error and changed ; and in that runt, we said,we should like to hear from. him. The Colonel, however,did not take us at our word and remain silent, but seizes the occasion t.• make an event of It by addressing its 1111,0g', a half dozen daily papers s on Thursday last, defining his poslion gem !nlly and particularly, not so much to show e, where lie stood, which we did not ask of him. except conditionally, but to make in this wholesale way, through the gratuitous col umns of Republican journals, too, an insidious and most unwarrantable attack upon Gen. Grant and his Administration. Now, we have nothing to withdraw of any• thing we said in favor-of the abilities of C u d. McClure, and of the services he could per form in the State'Senate were he disposed to do so ; but as he has taken upon himself to answer questions nobody asked, and has placed himself squarely in the ranks of the few dis• appointed malcontents in opposition to the Administration of President Grant and his renomination, we have nothing more to say on the question of the Fourth Senatorial ills Wet and hlinself. No man can or should re• care the nomination who is not thoroughly loyal to the party. We have too many hair splitters and half-hearted men already ; too many Schurzes, Summers, Fentons, Greeleys, and . oilier chronic recalcitrants, who refuse to follow and are unfit to lend. They are clamorous for what they call " re form," no matter how successful and able an administration may be ; and were their erLiik• ings ever heeded, as it fortunately is not, it would bring disaster upon the country. . \Ve are at no loss in understanding the sic dal pleadings of Col. McClure, and except w is h the unsophisticated they will fill few eyes With dust. 'What lie says of municipal reform n are nosy trying with !night and main to ac complish, and will be eventually successful. But if anybody supposes dint un enemy of the able, honest and economical administration of President Grant can stand on the edge of lit party and hold the balance of power in tut State Senate in an emergency like the iris ent,. he fails entirely in comprehemlio , tit situation. .We are amazed that the 144)11Lnc:in ,i meals of the city should have published McClure's letter except iu their advertising columns ; and doubly mimed that they bhuuld do it also. without condemnation. on the contrary some of them commend it. doubtless without reading it, and especially do it 'tout reading our editorial to which it assumes to be a reply. Some of the leading Itepublie journals elsewhere, however, familiar with its text, and possessing a proper. degree 01 Inde pendence, denounce it as it deserves in un measured ternis. I'VE, regret to believe that the 7. , .;ew York 'Tribune has lost much of its political intbt• .once with the people. As long as it was open and manly, battling nobly for a principle, it was a power in every section or the country. But its manifest unfairness towards President Grant has 10-t it the positir n that it spent soars of hard labor and sacrtiice. to obtain. The Tribune is still the best newspiper pub. qishe a on this continent, but that alone cannot :give it the power it thinks It has. To he suc • cessful in moulding political sentiment k jour nal must he just and it is certainly no evidence of justice that the Trlbune,:Washington cor respondents studiously refrain from reporting the speeches of President Grant's supporters, while they give so much space to the utter ances of his malignen4.

INTERESTS AN TILE T.untry. same manner 1 grov,.(l, and maniifite The Eight Geutio in the Vrenah Asiantbly &man once a year, on an average, the land owners of the Southeln States break out 'with an attack of what may perhaps be described as the immigration measles. We observe from our exchanges from that quarter that the dis ease is widely prevalent just now, the broad acres lying unimproved in those States fur nishing the basis of a considerable amount of really excellent writing and speech making concerning the Importance of the development of their material resources, and the necessity of an influx of capital and immigration to bring desiroble end Omit. The chief difficulty in the way of its accomplishment has hitherto consisted in the fact that, after the talking and writing fever was over,the landed proprietors, planters anti other to rsons most nearly Inter ested in the imlnstrial progress of those States, have set their (ac slike flints against the precitc means and methods which alone can give them them iterial prosperity whose ansence they so eloquently profess to deplore. It was very little tie, or instance, for the leading businessmen of Georgia to unite, six months since, in an ad ds es to the people of the North, setting forth the inducements and attractions which that State offered to settlers. TOOMBS, STEPHENS, and the bitter, rancorous followers for whom they then spoke and still speak, effectually nipped that project in the bud. So-, too, it will avail nothing to invite immigrants to South Carolina, so long as the Ku Klux Klan is permitted to exist within its borders. The State of North Carolina a year or two ago lured, by her glowing descriptions, a number of capitalists and industrial workers from the Northern States, but they shook off the dust of their feet against her In the very moment of discovering that, in order to purchase lotion ' pity from molestation, they must apostatize from their most cherished principles. Nor will Virginia find fruition of her hopes until she treads her centuried prejudices beneath her feet, and secures for all, as well its promises to all, the unrestricted and undis turbed post ssion of every prerogative and privilege which belong to manhood and to citizenship. And, after all is said and done, the development of the South will be found to depend chitffly on the labor of the negroes ; and it seems beyond question that if some plan c old be devised by which the freedmen could he wit into posessio❑ of homesteads of their own; thus becoming practically identified with the industrial and productive life of the Southern people, it would vlstly conduce to the prosperity of the whole section.—Pitts burgh Commtreial.

SI!NATOIt SUMNER claims for his propos!. lion to abolish the "Internal Revenue Bureau that it will save the country nine Millions of dollars per year. Ills idea is that the present Congress will remove all the internal taxes except the stamp duties, and he thinks it un necessary to keep up the expensive machinery of the Revenue Bureau any longer. He would have agencies for the sale of stamps in every county and in every town of considerable im portance, and with lull facilities for the pur• chase of stamps and detectives to see whether or not they are properly used he thinks the stump revenue can very easily be collected without special expense to the Government. WASHINGTON WasuninvoN, Friday, Dec. 22.—AlthoUgh the President has ordered that the rules pre pared by the Civil Service Commission shall go into operation on the Ist of January, it will probably be some time before the machi nery of the system will be perfeCted, so as to make it work smoothly throughout all branehee of the Civil Service. But little trouble Is an ticipated in introducing the changes into the Department in this city, especially in the Treasury Department, where a comparatively perfect system of examinations was Introduced 1S months ago, under which no clerls has been admitted except on passing a satisfactory examination, and no appointment male to the higher grades except front those who had had experience In the lower ones. By the old sys tem, however, a man was appointed and then examined i now, the examination is to be open to all, and the appointment must be made from three, designated by the board as stand ing highest. Members of the Commiss.on think that their system will relieve members of Congress from serving as employment agents, as no political influence can help a man ton place under the new system, unless he has passed the ordeal and is one of the for. innate three. They also believe that the sys tent iviil de away With removals for political causes, by removing the tempts• lion:: to make changes. tinder the old oy4- tent. It was not generally because a man's politics were obnoxious, that he lost his place, butt because his place was wanted for sonic other man. Now the politician Will have no assurance that the "other inan" will get the place, if it be made vacant. But the difficulties ofahe System will show itself when 'it is applied to offices higher than that of clerk, both In Washington and all over the country, and the "grouping" of officers referred to in the new rules, that is the arrangement of them Into separate classes, la a work of no magnitude, which the Advlsofy Hoard" will have to do, 'For instance, the questions have already arisen, How are heads of bis: reftus to be scleated Wilco a vacancy oc curs, 5111111 the piece be open only to competi• lion by the officers and clerks of the buraau; or shall it be thrown open to nil appllesuts who may desire to be examined for It.
