we're upon those poor people who bring the
notes of recommendation, than upon those VINO
write them, and who should better understand
what Congressman can do, and what Is
utterly out of his power. He speaks feellngly
of the bitter disappointment which this 1acii'y
of careless Endorsement often OCCASIONS anu

party to such practice. If the Convention
which may nominate him will pass RESOLUTION
approving a proper Civil Service bill, ana IN
" structng the candidate to make it his rule
"of action, if elected" he is willing again 10
be candidate.
We suspect that these are the first notes OF
a protest of which We shall, sooner or iater'
hear a good deal more. The evil indicated Is
rapidly assuming such great proportions, that
Congressional flesh and blood will not be able
to stand it forever, especially as 1t is an eVi
which unless cured must of necessity increase.
Senators holding their offices by different
tenure. can afford to be n little independent
but Representatives are comparatively 'he
epbemera of Congress, and are no sooner
warm in their seats than they are In danger OF
losing them. II would be great rehet 10
them, it would be of great political benefit TO
the people of the whole country, II 1t could
once for all be understood that by the terms
of the Constitution, Representatives are elected

sideration to enact wholesome and necessary
laws, and to repeal those which are unwhole-

One of the bounty claim agents, who have
been engaged for years in defrauding our dis
charged soldiers, was yesterday sentenced to
two years hard labor in the PeniteDtiary. Of
all the classes of our organized swindlers, there
has been no class guilty of meaner and baser
crimes than the class to which this man,
Mcmahon, belonged. At the same time. there
has been no class of cuIprits more difficult to
bring TO trial and punishment.

New YORK, July lS.-Many Germans
have telegraphed to Bismarck for safe
transportation home to join in the fight.
Gold opened in Wall street amid state
of excitement which eclipses anything wit
messed since the war. Reports from Europe
came thick and fast during the morning,
and of the most exciting character. First
came the announcement that Russia had
made an alliance with Prussia, and that
Austria had formed an alliance with France,
Then came report that Napoleon had nOti-
fed the South German States that they mnst
decide within twenty four hours whether
they would take sides with France or
Prussia.
Then came intelligence that there was a
panic in Frankfort and London-at this
-juncture the gold room was informed that
q French irOn-clad feet was chasing the
Prussian fleet into the Baltic, also that the
French army had crossed the Rhine and de-
feated the Prussians. The price opened
early at 117A, and quickly advanced to
1875; at this point the market halted for a
time, but soon started up again, and did not
stop uutil it reached 40. Here the excite
ment cooled off little and the price
dropped to 1894
The bulls, after short resting spell, sent
the price up once more, and this time 1t
rapidly rose to 1924, the highest figure
made ON the present upward turn. At this
point the market seemed to have become
dizzy, and almost in an instant the price
dropped to 1904, but quickly rallied to
l2la4, and then fell off to 12lA. Ia Is
The Germans were enormous buyers OF
gold during the day, and their operations
have been conducted with a boldness which
shows great faith and confidence in pro-
longed European war. The day closed in
Wall street with a calm feeling.
There was a considerable abatement IN
the speculative excitement. The situation
in the gold room became very interesting,
and enormous sums were staked upon tne
war between France and Prussia. Cold
closed very quiet at 1909. Governments
opened with decline, but during the after,
