often faced in the Tomba, came by, driving a lum-

little too much. This mud business was piling IL

General a bomas.

Since the arrival of Major Gene
raj Geo. II. Thomas in Silver City
on Monday afternoon, and the hoist
ing of flags, firing of guns, ETC., we
have heard the question asked by
those apparently ignorant OF the
fact that a great war has been fought
and won within the past few years,
who is Gen. Thomas and what has
be done to entitle him to these nnu-
sual courtesies? We answer that he
il one of four of the great Captains
of the age, Grant, Thomas, Sherman
and Sheridan and as to what he
has done, we answer that be com
mandpd during the war, first brig
ade under Buell., and steadily raised
tn the command of the Department
of the Tennessee, that he bore per-
sonal command in the fighting and
winning of the following and
hundred other battles: Cedar Mount
ain, Stone River, Chickama'Iga,
Lookout Mountain, Chattanooga,
Mission Ridge, Atlanta, Nashville,
and Mill Spring, and that the gal
liant old hero, up to this day, has
never lost o battle:
To his honor further be it said
that being an old Virginia gentle
man, educated at government ex-
pensc, as were Lee and Stonewall
Jackson, and like them maintained
in employment when their services
were not required, and like them
having sworn TO support the Consti-
tuition and Government ofthe United
States against all its enemies, he did
not, like them, at the first moment,
when he could make himself useful
to that Government. desert, turn
traitor and attempt to sting in the
heart the foster mother that had
warmed him into life and made him
all that he was or ever hoped to be,
but stood firmly by his country, as
well when in war and trouble as
when in prosperity and peace. When
his old companions in arms became
traitors and perurors and made wal
against the old flag, the flag Of Wash
ington and Jefferson, the flag and
government that our grandiathers
fought TO establish and our fathers
to maintain, and would have de
stroyed and blotted outthat govern
ment and torn the starry banner
from the skies, George ii. Thomas
threw himself into the breach anc
with the patriotic hosts of the Unior
nut its enemies to flight and estab
lished more permanently and proud
ly. and cemented more firmly tina
bond which is to endure forever be
tween the States of the Union, re
moved the incubus of slavery, tina
foul scab and wart upon the face o
the nation, and planted her fee
upon rock that shall be as endur
ing as time, where the waves of sc
cession and treason may dasl
against it in vain, seconded thong
they be by sickly Northern SYN
pathy, despised alike by patriots an
traitors.

senator Trunbuli's Bill.

Senator Trumbull 5 bill to prevent the IN
reference of members of Congress with ex
ecutive appointments strikes at one Of the
greatest abuses of the Government. Tn,
rule under which members of Congress are
allowed to have such absolute control of the
selection of United States officers for their
own districts, is bad in theory and pernicious
in practice. Senator Trumbull's bill aims %
correct this evil, and for that reason deserves
the approval of the public. Yet we regret
its introduction at this time, and believe
that its passage would be serious misior-
tune.
The introduction of this bill tends to di-
vert public attention from the Civil Service
Bill of Mr.. Jenckes-a measure of the same
character but far more thorough in the re-
forms which it proposes. Both bills seek to
correct abuses in the system Of appointments
to Office. But Senator Trumbull offers
remedy for but one phase of the disease.
while Mr.. Jenckes calls for a radical change
Of treatment, with view to a complete heal
ing of the patient. Senator Trumbull would
correct one Of the evils of the present sys-
ten Mr.. Jenckes would abolish the system
itself and establish Fl better one. The su-
periority, IN short, Of the bill introduced by
Mr.. Jenekes is obvious 1t is a measure in
which the country has We believe, great
and friendly interest. Now Senator Trum-
bulls bill threatens to at least divide with
this bill the attention Of Congress. It
makes no war on the main principle Of
" party spoils. 1t leaves the army of I'm I
official lobbyists and office seekers to con- /
tinue their White House campaigns 1t re-
cognizes, or at least does not repudiate. the
theory that appointments to Office are to be
the reward Of merely party services. These
things give the bill great advantage
over that of Mr.. Jenckes. For though 1t
deprives Congressman Of one of their pre-
1t leaves the principle Of partisan
untouched; whereas Mr..
Jenckes' bill strikes away both. The propo-
sition Of Mr. Trumbul seems thus To serious
ly menace a wiser and better measure and
for this reason We are sorry that it has been
introduced
The passage of this bill-though that il
very remote and improbable contIngency-
would be a misfortune. inasmueh as it
would postpone the only true reform in the
Civil Service.

important Law suit at Bennington.

On the Sth Of august, i,tS, the safe .. ,h'
First Nstiousl Bank Of Bennington was ureuc.
by burglars and a cons lesabe amount Of D. nd,
and other securities stolen. Among those VII,
suffered by tie robbery was E.o- adams, VII,
had deposited with the bank $1,000 worth OF
Government bonds, As collateral security 5ra
note at the bank The note was paid upon IFS
maturity, but the bank refused TO make restitu.
ton Of the bonds, and Mr. Adams brought SUIT
to compel it to make good his loss The -uit
was tried last week before the Bennington Cquu-
ty Court, Judge Wheeler presiding. II was bis
frs, jury trial, and he presided with great i'm
partiality and ability, and rendered his decisions
with a clearness and seii-po-session which gave
high promise Of future e;ninence as 81 iurist The
trial commeaced on Tuesday and concluded on
-afurl 81, and excited intense interest During
the las, tNo days the court WIS packed To over
flowing, large portion If thr audience being
ladies' The counsel engaged in the case were
Hon. \. P. Lyman Of Bennington and y. A.
Beach Of Troy for Adams Messrs Harmon,
Souihworth. Sibley and t. j. Phelps Of Burling-
ton for the Bank. The brunt of the trial fell
upon Mr.. Beach and MIR Phelps, aud their sum
mlugs up are said TO have been unusually able.
eloquent and powerful.
The plaintiff claimed 10 recover on the grounds
that due care had not been exercised by the bank
IN the keeping Of the securities, the SAT. being
exposed 10 observation. near a window which
WAS kept open. and the door Of the safe opened
against L, so that person could reach in and
tell the combination, second, that the safe was a
double safe, and instead Of placing Adams
bonds in the inner safe, which Nas not robbed,
for additional security they we're deposited in the
exterior safe; third, that the hmkipg house IT, .
self was wooden structure, without blinds 10
the windows, or other safeguards against bury
lars, and that it was the imperative duty Of the
officers of the hank TO deposit these bonds il the
most secure place possible. The defence set up
that the bank was robbed by the celebrated bur
glar, Marx Shinborn, and that be did it by
means of an indicator placed in the inside of the
dial, so that in shutting or opening the door the
course travelled by the dial left its impression
upon the indicator, and by that means be OBJ
tanned the combination and not through the open
window The other two points Of the plaintiff
were not seriously combaued. The plaintiff also
claimed that the officers Of the bank we're not in
the habit Of throwing Oft the combination after
opening the lock, and showed that unless that
was done, any expert could tell the combination
in a few minutes. An expert brought by them
opened a lock that was secretly set in the court
room in less than three minutes. The case was
given to the jury Saturday afternoon. Il was
thought the jury would disagree
