LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
The Royal Training Schools
The New York Post, taking as a text Secreta
ry Seward's recommendation, that young men
of edneation be trained up in the diplomatic
and consular service, amplifies the subject with
considerable latitude. What is true of those
branches, it says, is true of many other branches
of the public service. "But," it adds, "tot in
duce men of proper qualifications to engage in
this service the country must offer them the
chances of a career, and of promotion for merit."
In other words they must be offered a life-estate
in the public offices, and a strong pull at the
public crib. The following paragraph will ex
plain the drift of its argument:
"At present we have no regularly constituted
public service—no body of men who enter the
Government offices with the intention of mak
ing their career there. There is no reward of
merit except political merit; men do not hold
place because they are capable, but because they
are politicians; and with every change of ad
ministration, several thousand clerks who are
just beginning to know their duties and to carry
on Government business intelligently, are dis
placed by a similar number of raw men who
know nothing at all of their duties."
There is but one step farther, from what is
above advocated, until we arrive at monarchy.
Il the objections which the Poal urges to the
present political system be valid, they must ap
ply with equal force to all offices necessary in
Government,—to legislators, governors, cabinet
officers and presidents, as well as to the minor
departments. if the public service suffers from
frequent changes in the lower grade of offices,
how much more will it not suffer through changes
in the higher brauchest if it be so import
ant to have the public records kept nicely, ac
curately and with facility, and that the consu
lar service at every little port, where a bale or a
box is delivered, should go smoothly on, is it not
more important that preliminary culture should
be required of those whose theories shape the
policy of and bring prosperity or ruin to the na
tter:it It will strike the reader that there is
reason in such a requirement, but the Post fears
to go so far in its first attempt to overthrow the
existing state of things. No doubt it imagines
tha succeeding in the lower departments
first,t e change in the higher ones will follow
an a matter of course. The advocates of a
"strong," "centralized government" find it nec
essary to proceed cautiously and gradually to
the accomplishment of their end, which is the
formation of a species of life-estate monarchy,
giving to the privileged, wealthy and educated
class a monoply of all the avenues and powers
of the Government. Nevertheless, military in
terference in elections for the last two years
indicates very plainly the tendency of the lead
ers of the dominant party.
The arguments of the I'ost intended to show
the necessity of preliminary training are ail
proper enough. The merchant, the artisan, the
lawyer, lie., all go through a preliminary dis
cipline, it is true, hut that paper forgets that
the training is, and should be, through the ef
forts and at the expense of the individuals them
selves. The Government does not undertake to
teach its people how to plow, to build, or to
navigate, and yet its power and its wealth de
pend upon the facility and extent with which
those operations are performed. Why, there
fore, should it model take to teach a selected few,
and at the people's expense, how to simply
keep the records of its prosperity 1
The history of this country shows that some of
the most able statesmen and valuable officers in
the Govern merit service have risen from the most
humble state through their own unaided efforts.
A course like that recommended would forever
debar from participation in the affairs of gui
ernment that useful class of men, by destroying
the stimulus to exertion and closing the doors
to preferment;whereas a school of training could
not fall to result in a vast number of the num
skulls and incompetents which favoritism would
be continually foisting upon the popular boun
ty. Free competiti,m. after years of experience,
hills been found to be the best for trade, and so
it must prove to be in respect to Government
patronage. Let the av unues all he open, as
heretofore, to the people, trom whom comes the
governing power. The slight IRCOI3VeqiCEICEIS of
delay and clerical blunders should not, weigh
against the advantages afforded under the Dem
ocratic plan heretofore pursued, of allowing nat
ural talent and ineritonooJ conduct to find its
way to the people's favor.
No man should enjoy a life-membership in
any department of the government, unless by
the suffrages of the people or their representa
tives, expressed periodical). It has been dem
onstrated, in every ramification of department
alrairs' that true merit and qualifications have,
under successive and diverse administrations,
maintained their place in the public sin ice, and
a tenure based on those essentials ought to be
the only onb tolerated. All persons have oppor
tunities to quality themselves In everything ex
cept, perhaps, the mete routine of business,
outside of '•training schools;" and, that being
the case. there is no necessity to borrow troth
monarchy any portion 01 its despotic machin,

Selene in the /ffieyer , e Office
Yesterday morning among the number of cases
disposed of by Aiderinan Butler, acting mayor
in the absence of Mr. Lowry, was that of a tall,
tine looking Union soldier, who gave his name
as Smith, a name which he said he had assumed
for the time being for the want of a better one.
When ft came far. Smith's turn to answer the
charges preferred against him, the following die
logue occurred:
Alderman—Kr. Smith, you are charged with
being drunk last night.
Smith—The charge, to the best of my know
lege, is correct.
Alderman—As you were oblivious when
brought in, why are you 60 positive„that the
charge against you is truel
SMith:—Because 1 had paid in advance for a
bed at the—hotel, and didn't occupy it, hence
1 must have been inebriated.
Alderman—l will have to fine you seventy
cents and costa—sl,7O for drunkenness.
Smith—Does that include my night's lodging!
Alderman—ln the lock-up, but not at the
hotel.
Smith—All right, and not so d—d dear for was
times.
[Here Smith drew a roll of greenbacks from
his boot legs, and handed a bill over to the
Ulerk la payment of his fine and costs.)
Alderman—You had better be careful, Smith,
and not come before me to-morrow morning.
Smith—By-the-by, Mr. Mayor, will you make
a reasonable deduction in your charges for lodg
ing, if I take it by the week 1
Alderman—l cannot deviate from the estab
lished rates.
Smith—Then I shall not patronize your estab
lishment., except upon compulsion.
Alderman—l hope we shall not have anyfur
ther occasion to compel you to lodge at our
hotel.
Smith—Will you go out and take a drink

Alderman—No, sir. (Exeunt Smith.

that a committee of the stockholders of this road
otter for sale t 4 entire line, equipment, stock,
&c. Bids will lie received up to May let, and if
not sold by the.; time proposals will be received
for the iron and wood.
Here we hriie one of the disastrous effects of
an inflated crency and high prices. The char
ter of the (Jonipany restricts the fare to Oakland
to live cents/ Two or three years ago, when
wages, horsegeed, &c., were only about one
half what they are now, the road might have
been made profitable at so low a fare; but now,
when prices are doubled and the fare still at nee
cents, it is impossible for the Company to real
ize anything or even keep up the road.
The stockholders are not at all censurable; they
have done all in their power to keep the road
open, for it is an indispensable convenience to
the hundreds of people who lice along its route,
and its destruction will be a great public loss.
Nevertheless, they cannot be expected to keep
up a great public convenience in the face of a
currency that has reduced the purchaaeable
qualities of their fares to one-half and doubled
their expenses. The natural increase of busi
ness will not by any means compensate for their
loss from these causes, and the Company, to
save themselves, will be compelled to do as they
threaten—to tear up the track and abandon
their charter.
In New York City the omnibus lines have ad
vanced their fare from five to ten cents, and
they find that even this advance is no more than
is required—ten cents being only about equiva
lent to live cents three years ago. Could this
railway company be enabled to advance their
fare to a living price, there would be no neces
sity to resort to either sale or destruction. The
people who are benefited by the convenience,
would scarcely object to an increase, knowing
themselves the state of the times and the cur
rency. No doubt they would prefer an advance
of fare to the tearing up of the track. list, al
though the people might be all right, the char
ter is the obstacle.
This is the first disastrous result of the viti
ated currency, and it may be but the beginning
of trouble that shall carry loss and dismay to
many other Interests and individuals beside+ the
ones in question.

New York Cattle Market
Butts Hewn.—The market opened this morn
ing with 3,200 rattle In the yards, most of them
of good quality, It will be remembered that the
supply was light last week. and we then re
marked that speculators laid their plans for a
further rise. They were entirely successful;
and, after putting up the rates )(Apo It, very
complacently told the butchers the "cattle were
cheap" and that "really they couldn't afford to
take leas," etc., when their only real fears were
that they were asking so Minh the butchers
could not afford to pay for them In anything but
prthnises.
Scarcely s.nythlng, however poor, could be
had for less than 14c., and good fair retailing
steers, such as shop butchers usually buy, were
held stiff at 11.14V1641., while selected animals
from the best droves were weighed out at an
agreed shrinkage for 17c. per m. We have no
doubt but that some of the cattle bought by the
head were more than that, as sellers called them
more than their Just weight. The weather was
unfavorable, and the yards muddy, but neither
the rain nor the filthy yards prevented a brisk
trade, and few cattle were left unsold at night.
The night receipts expected to-morrow will hard
ly affect the market, and the present may go on
record as the highest of all the high markets.
About 204 cattle were sold at Bergen during the
week ? and 134 were disposed of here on Friday
andl,aturday. The sheep market sympathizes
with the cattle trade. A few lots arriving go oft'
quickly at 10c. and if fat, at 1010310%c. le lb.
flogs also are higher, with an improved demand.
