more meritorious associates to the lasting detri-
ment Of the general welfare. This disease has
penetrated every part Of the political system.
Our present pernicious plan Of appointments TO
Office constantly and strongly reinforces the idea
that appointees under the several departments
should study how little they can render for the
compensation they receive instead Of giving the
most they are capable Of to the nations service.
How is it possible to supply 6 remedy, without
redical reform. when, every four years, some fifty
thousand ofice-holders more than the entire per-
sonnet of the Army and Navy are liable to be
dismissed from the public service tor mere opini-
on's sake?
We are glad to see that the heads of depart
ments. under the present administration, are so
fixed and unanimous in their views upon this i'm
portant, even vital. subject At length convic-
ton appears to have penetrated the halls of Con-
gress, as is evinced by the bill recently intro
duced INTO the Senate by Mr.. T'rumbull, making
it an offense punishable by fine for any member
of either House Of Congress to recommend any
applicant for Office unless specifically and official
" applied 10 in writing for an opinion regarding
the qualifications or character of such applicant.
So far as this bill will operate, it is undeniably
ameliorative but it touches effects, not causes.
To get rid of the. former, must uproot the lat
ter. What is needed is full and comprehensive
organization of the civil service principles that
will weed out laziness, incompetence viciousness
and unworthiness. Few contemplated reforms
have stronger claims upon the attention of Con-
gress. In word, let us have Mr.. Jencke's bill
or its equivalent. That embodies the only suffi-
Gent remedy driving partisan considerations en-
tirey out Of the basis of official qualification, and
making appointments to Office dependent exclu-
svely upon capacity. faithulness, character expe-
rience and like really indispensable qualities

COLOSSAL JAPANESE IMAGE OF BUDDA.--Passing
through an inclosing grove of evergreens, we
came into large open space paved with flag
stones. In the centre of this is the image. 1t
represents Budda sitting, in the oriental manner.
on lotus. 1t is of bronze, 30 feet high. and sc
feet in circumference at the base, and is raised
pedestal FIVE or six feet from the ground
We had all come expecting to see some gro
tesaue idol and we we're therefore pleasantly
surprised when, instead of this we found our
selves admiring work Of high art 1t is Budda
in Nrvana. The sculptor has succeeded in i'm
pressing upou the cold metal the essence of the
promise given by Sakyamuni to his followers a
promise which has been, during more than twenty
centuries, the guiding hope of countless millions
of souls. This is the doctrine of the final attain
ment CT Nirvana the state of utter humiliation
of external consciousness after ages of purifica-
ton by transmigration.
Both the face which is OF the Hindoo type
and the attitude are in perfect harmony with the
idea intended to be expressed. felt that | saw
for the first time, anG whre least expected it,
realization, in art, of religious idea. No Ma
donna on canvas, or Christ in marble, had ever
been other to me than suggestive, through the
aid of an acquaintance with the subjects treated.
The Budda of kamakura is a successful render
ing of profound religious abstraction.
The head is covered with small knobs, repre-
senting the snas which tradition says came to
protect Bndda from the heat of the burninge sun.
This image which was made about six hundred
years ago, was cast in sections of a few square
feet of surface each, and an inch or more thick,
and when put together, the joints were fitted so
closely that now, after the lapse Of centuries, they
can be detected only where the weather has made
them visible in discoloration.

place without war, based on past annual expendi-
lures of the National Government. In the fOregO-
ing exhibit, We have presented the net cost Of the
rebellion 10 the Government To this, however,
must be added number of items which Mr. Wells
gives thus:
Pensions capitalized at eight years
Increase Of state debts, mainly on war
County. city and town Indebtedness

Expenditures Of States or counties,

dustry, and the reduction Of the
American marine and carrying trade. 12OOOOoO 600
Estimated direct expenditures and loss
Of property by the Confederate States
by reason of the war. 400, 000, 600
This makes total loss by the war, on both sides,
TO the whole country, of nine thousand million dol
lars. Says Commissioner Wells
- This, then, was the cost of the destruction of
slavery-the cost of eomprOmise-the cost of I'M
faithfulness of those who founded this nation to
the idea by which the nation lives. What does it
measure? II Is substantially thousand millions a
year for nine years; or at the wages OF $500 year.
the labor of 10000 of men exeTted continuously
during the whole of that period 1t Is five times
much as the slave property Of the country ever
worth II Is sum which at interest would yield to
the end of time twice much as the annual slave
product Of the South in its best estate"
1t is not necessary, however to stop at this ealcu
latiOn. We may carry the comparison much farther
What would the same cost, expended In the interest
of internal i'm provements, have accomplished? How
many miles of railroad would 1t have built and paid
for? How many schools would il have instituted
and maintainedi How much would il have done
for international commerce in effecting q canal be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, across the
Isthmus OF Daren other point OF that narrow neck
Of land? These considerations now practical
