From the New York Times.
The President and Cabinet have
adopted tho recommendations OF Mr..
G w. Curtis's Civil Service Com
mission without reservation, and or
dered them TO 60 into effect on the
first Of next month. This is prob
ably about tho very last thing in the
world which Senator Schurx expected
or desired. While the Commission
was sitting, Schurs went about the
members Of it, saying that they
might as we'll put their work in the
fire, for the President was certain to
suppress il. We ask the public to
bear in mind, in common fairness,
that Schurz and his "soreheads''
have never interested themselves in
this Commission in any way except
to discourage It. The administrator
called the Commission into existence
it only received the report on Mon
day afternoon, and on Tuesday
morning it declared its intention Of
adopting it. The measure itself will
be . most unwelcomo one for men
like Schurz and Fenton, for it i'm.
poses fitness as the test Of office, and
takes away the power of appoint
ment for political reasons. What
Schurz and Fenton wanted was to
control patronage not to SEQ il
thus placed hopelessly beyond their
reach. They will now hate and
abuse the President worse than ever,
but the people will have . clearer in
sight into their motives and purposes
than they have hitherto had this
session.

before the Jury rs we clip it from

Neither my distinguished friend

to defend, or justify, or palliate any
outragcs that may have been perpe-

with horror to some of the testimony
which has been brought before you.
The outrages proved have beon
shockipg TO humanity they admit
neither Of justification nor excuse
they violate every obligation which
law and nature impose upon men.
These men appear to have been
alike insensible to tho obligations oi
humanity and religion. The day
will come, however--if it has not al.
ready arrived-when they will deep
ly lament it. Even If justice should
not overtake them there is another
tribunal from which there is no es

before they shall be called TO th
