an imposture. The writer for the Sun must be
a foreigner, and therefore actuated by selfish mo-

The Philadelphia Inquirer OF Thursday SAYS

HC HiduClpllld vi IiuiSudy says
The following individuals have been ordered by
Judge BLYTHE to enter into recognizance fol theil
appearance at the next Court of Quarter Sessions
of Dauphn county, on charges of active participa
ton in the recent outrages at Harrisburg George
w. Barton, of Lancaster; Aaron F. Cox, Of Cum.
berland; Charles F. Muench, of Harrisburg, (U
| S. Deputy Marshal y Charles Pray, John w
Ryan, John Savage, John ]. McCahen, Joseph
Hall, and others of Philadelphia. Warrants are
out for other individuals who have'not been arrest.
ed. Most of these individuals were represented
by counsel and had the benefit of all the excul-
patory testimony they could advance. Still they
have been fully bound over for trial. What a
comment is this on the assertions Of partisan lead
ers that there was no disturbance. At the hear
ing before Judge BLYTHE, the Commonwealth
was represented by the Attorney General, who
went to the seat of Government at the request Of
the Governor.
We learn through the same channel that other
arrests were going on, and that M'Cahen, said to
be an Irshman employed in the post-oflice in Phi
ladelphia, on hearing Of that process, became con-
vinccd that if he had not higher duties to perform
at Harrisburg, it was then high time TO return to
Philadelphia, where, if we rightly understand the
order of the Postmaster General, he has hence
forth no duties to perform in that Department.
This is Just as it should be, for two reasons; to
subdue his mob valor, and to remove an unworthy
foreigner from office, where, for the latter reason
at least, he should never have been placed.

Mr. SWARTwoUT--lt appears oy documens laid be-
fore Congress- that the deficiencies in the account Of the
Elk Collector Of New York, have been ascerainrd to
have commenced in $780, and increased from year to
year till March 1888. The following is summary of
deficits.
The deficit of Mr. Swartwout at the end of each sue
cessive year, was as follows:
On the 3lst December, 1880, 1922 81
On the 31st December, 1881, I,l6S 81
On the 3lsf December, 1882, 3O,sOl 33
On the 3lst December, 1888, 3529S 81
| On the 3Ist December, 1884, 50,370 03
On the 3lst December, 1888, l37,06i SO
On the 3lst December, 1886, 3367l8 60
On the 3lst December, 1887, l,0l6,955 80
On the 2Sth March, 1888, l,225,705 SO
1t appears by the above exhibit, that Mr.. S.
performed, or rather inexperienced the functions
of Collector from the 3lst of December, 1880, to
the 2stn of March, 1898; and that every year du-
ring that time he was in arrears which progress
sively increased from 1922 to 81 ,225 ,7O5. Now,
when it is considered that the Collector was bound
to make quarterly statements of his accounts to
the Treasury Department, or that the head of that
Department was authorized to require such state
ments, we conclude that Mr.. Swartwout had an
imposing way of rendering statement of his ac-
counts, or that the Secretary had negligent way
of exercising his supervisory powers, amounting
to remissness of duty. And seeing that, from the
depressed condition of the finances under the late
pressure and arrangement in the monetary mat
ters Of the country, issues Of Treasury paper be-
came necessary to keep the Government in ope-
ration, it is matter Of deep regret that the public
Treasury has been robbed to such an immense
amount by SO many faithless officers as are now
ascertaned to be defaulters
These results prove, when it is too late how
ever to remedy the evil the undeserved confidence
placed in the officers of his appointment by the
President, and the great improperly, to say the
least the part of the late Executive and others
ofhaving opposed SO strenuously the proposition
advanced in the House Of Representatives, tc
subject the public offices to free and full nvcs
tgation, as by these means much of the fraud
now exposed, might have been then detected, ant
the evil, to that extent, greatly lessened, if no
wholly prevented. We hope these unfortunate
occurrences will teach salutary lesson to thos,
who are entrusted with the high and responsible
functions of the Government, and that we neve
Iagain, nor any generation to come, will witnes
any opposition from any quarter to similar pro
|position made by any one of the peoples chosel
guardians of the public interests.

HAIL STORM.

On Thursday afternoon. this city
and neighborhood were visited by a
hail storm Of unusual severity, accom-
panied with wind, rain, Lightning and
thunder. Most Of the hail stones
which continued falling for ten or fif-
teen minutes--werc Of the size of
large walnuts, and some Of them near
~, if not quite as big as as hen eggs;
and being driven with some violence
by the force Of the wind, they did con-
siderable damage, by stripping trees
of their leaves, destroying tender
plants and vegetables, and breaking
thousands'of panes Of glass in this city
and Upper Alton. We have not heard
how far the storm extended its ravases
in any direction; but we hope j: was
confined within limited space.-[ib.

EXPECTING A LETTER.--I do not
think life has suspense more sickening
than that of expecting letter which
does not come. The hour which
brings US the post is the one that is an
ticiratcd, the oaly one from which W
reckon. How long the time seems
till it comes! With how many devil
ces do we seek to pass tia little quick
cr. How we hope and believe each
day will be our last Of anxious wait
ing! The post comes in, and there is
no letter for us. How bitter is the
disappointment? and every repetition
grows more acute. How immeasura-
bic the time seems till the post comes
again! The mind cxhausts itself in
conjecture; illness, even death, grows
terribly distinct to hope in it's agony
hope that is fear! We dread, we
know not what; and every heightened
day the misery grows more insupport-
able. Each day the anxiety takes a
darker shadow. To know even the
worst of all that we have foreboded
appears relief Miss Landon.
