l heard capital story with regard to

Observation-Disclosures, believe--by the
distiller in whose establishment they
are placed. The story comes to me
from one who knows, and is an apt il.
lustratlon of the recent penny wise
and pound foolish policy which has cut
down the pay Of assistant assessors and
other officials. A supervisor in New
York recently removed one of these of
ficers from one distillery to another.
Perhaps be suspected collision, but if
SO said nothing. The distiller was a
German, we'll call him Mr.. Schmidt.
He waited on the Supervisor and began
an interesting conversation with
war for you move, Mr.. Shones? You
thinks own him, Ell? Suppose does,
hows you going to help it =? / own the
t'other man you sends, etc.
quite likely was the Supervisors
reply; 'but then I'll move him.
well, you can't help it, | own them
all. Does you want to know how it's
done? Veil, I tells you. Saturday

He SAYS yes says, Does you ever

'Yes,' he says. 'Vell,' says, take that
letter to your wife, He goes home and
says, wife, here's a letter shentleman

before. They go to the Park and buy
lots of tings for children. You pay
him four dollars day. give him six
hundred dollars week. Who owns
him-you or me? How are you going
to help? lido not say anything to him.
l only send de envelope to his wife. He
likes to own horse and buggy, house of
his own and enjoy himself. How can
you prevent it?'
Mr.. Schmidt was frank, for the FORE
going is substantially true. Can the
government expect to be faithfully
served in important positions of trust
when it pays Insufficient wages and Of
fers no career or security of position to
honesty and integrity?

More Troubles at the Penn
sylvaAia Coal Mines.

Scranton, Pa, August 50.-Between
1000 and 1900 N en- from the coal fields
north and south of this city arrived
here to-day by rail and wagons. Their
avowed purpose is to prevent the coal
miners of the Delaware, Lackawana
and Western Railroad Company from
continuing at work. They are now
holding their second meeting, but have
taken no forcible action so far. Meet
ings of the citizens have been held, at
the call of the mayor, to protect the
miners, and volunteers are fast enroll
ing. There is much excitement.

SORROW.

Upon my lips she laid her touch divine,
And merry speech and careless laughter
She fixed her melancholy eyes on mine,
And would not be denied
l saw thieves wind loose his cloudlets
white,
In. focks careering through the April
1 could moi not sing, thought joy was at its
height,
For she stood silently.
watched the lovely evening fade away
A mist was lightly drawn across the
stars
She broke my quiet dream-I heard her
"Behold your prison bars!"
Earth's gladness shall not satisfy your
This beauty of the world in which you
live;
The browning grace that sanctifes the
whole
That I.alone can:give.
l heard, and shrank away from her afraid;
But still she held me, and would still
abide.
Youths bounding, pulses slackened and
obeyed,
With slowly ebbing tide.
"Look thou beyond the evening sky" she
said,
"Beyond the changing splendors of the
day,
Accept the pain, the WEAKNESS, the dread,
Accept and bid me stayP'
I turned and clasped her close, with sudden
strength,
And slowly, sweetly, became aware
Within my arms COPS angel stood at
length,
White.robed and calm and fair.
And now look beyond the evening star,
Beyond the changing splendors of the
day,
Knowing the pain He sends more precious
far,
More beautiful than they.

The World and The Times express some
anxiety because Gen. Grant didn't make
speech on the Negro question the other day.
The Times especially remarks his failure to
respond to Mr.. MOrtOn's hope that under
chs administration the work of reconstruction
I" will be completed and the wounds of civil war
"healed." Gen. Grant gave full expression to
his opinions on this question when he SAID TO
the President of the Chicrgo Convention, that
"the proceedings of that Convention fully ex-
pressed the feelings of the great mass OF those
"who sustained the country through its recent
d" trials;v and when, reminding the Convention
that he had always respected the popular
"will," he declared he Arrays should. We re-
member President who was scarcely in office
before he Numbered declarations against
treason and in behalf of loyalty" about
ORATORS being punished" and Rebels being
"put in the back seats,n and ending the work
Of reconstruction In the most radical manner
We also remember that he was enthusiastically
sustained at that time by advanced radical people,
and little later by conservative journalists
like the editor Of The Times IL President
johnson had said little less upon that ques-
ton, and acted more temperately, the country
would have been better to-day. Of the two
plans, we rather like Grants. IL The Times has
any doubt about Gen. Grants position on re-
construction, it can easily ascertain his views
from our printed collection of his speeches.

not seem to be involved in the present case.
But as a dictum it would indicate that i'll

though the contract were made prior to the

The experiment of doing its own printing,
which the Government, under the spur OF the
constant frauds and excuses in it's printing
contracts, entered upon some years ago. has,
under the faithful management of Mr.. Defrees,
proved so satisfactory q success that Congress
is now sure to make 1t uniform by extending
it to the printing of the debates. These have,
up to this time, formed the special preserve OF
the inhertors of the old Blair and Rives
dynasty. The outlines Of the Committees bill
for transferring The Globe to the Government
Printing Office seem satisfactory; and there
can, we imagine, be little doubt that the meas
ure will be crowded through at this session.
