GOVERNMENT TNSPECToas

The Developments of the Weslfeld in
vesligation, with which the telegraph is
daily laden, illustrate the abuses which
may creep into any system Of Govern
ment inspection for the public safety,
however well devised. Under our Rsdi-
cal regime, it appears that the selection
and appointment of boiler inspectors has
become matter of political preferment,
without regard to the competency of the
applicants. The idea of employing The
best scientific and practical talent for the
prevention of horrible disasters, is CON-
pletely lost sight of, and the whole sys-
TEN becomes mere political machine
run in the interests of party and corrup-
ton. That these developments should
come GU. in Government investig alton
set on foot by Secretary Boutwell, him
self, makes it all the more damaging to
the present administration of Federal af-
fairs. When important offices, on the
efficiency of which the lives of hundreds
depend, are given to pariy hacks in pay
ment for partisan services, what abuses
may we no. expect elsewhere? But Rae
icalism is all of piece, and leads only to
corruption.
Such developments render doubtful the
sdyisability of public supervision whether
by State or Federal authorities. So long
as human nature remains the same, these
abuses are always liable to be developed
in the vicissitudes snd exigencies of par
ty. In a similar manner the school sys-
tens of several Northern States have
been degraded into party spols, and the
Offices parcelled out among the victors.
To secure safety on the public highways,
the surest means would be an improve.
ment of our Judicial system up TO the
needs of this fast age-a system thai
would secure the prompt settlement OF
damages, and would place the poorest
claimant on 3 level with the richest cor.
porstion. The false economy of rotten
boilers and cheap employees, SOON demon.
strstes itself in the frequent destruction Of
material worth ten to hundred fold the
amount saved. But if we add to this thC
prompt demand for exemplary damages
to the injured, the company that could
not sfford to run a safe business, would
soon have to sell out to those who could

ToUoHING the crops in Europe we have
the following reports: In Prussia the
prospects are not at all favorable, espe-
cially for the early crops, and the late
ones have suffered severely for the want
of warm sun. AS is the case in this
country, there has been little or no sum-
mer in Prussia, and this has had its eff
feet on the crops. In Saxony, however,
matters are different, and the prospect of
q good, healthy yield has gladdened the
hearts of the farmers. The wheat and
barley crops Of France, especially IN the
West and Southwest, have greatly i'm
proved, and promise productive and
boundful yield. Russia will, according
to all accounts, be up to the average OF
last year. The promise of an abundant
harvest in Hungary is gratifying, and in
Roumania, Bulgaria and Besarabis the
promises are 1attering.

Mr.. S. N. CASANOVA, Cuban gentle
man farming in Fsuquier county, Va a,
informs the Lynchburg Republican that
he has plan on foot, and, he believes,
in process of successful execution, for
"the introduction of q considerable num-
Der of Cuban families into Fauquier
county. The proposed immigrants are,
for the most part of the best social class
of that island. The Cubans, according to
Mr. Casanova, are tired of living under
the bane of Spanish despotism. They
have money, industry, and, what is per-
haps equally important, they are not d.
vided from US by political gaps nor differ
ences of political faith. .
