Schurz, while insisting that there was
some mysterious power above the Secre-
tary of the treasury which protected
the general order system, honorably said:
.''There had not been sufficient evidence
to connect any one at the White House
with this business, although such allega-
lions had been made" If it be the wish
of Senators Trunbull and Schurz to in
vestigat.e fairly the honesty and economy
of the public service, all good citizens
toidentify the Republican Administration
with dishonesty in the service, the coun-
try will hardly forget that General Grant
is the only President who has strenuous
ly insisted upon reform of the whole
system of party patronage-to which
the Senators are not saTangers-the only
President who has recommeHded0it TO
Congress, and who only waits the CONF

civil service, necessarily breeding cor
ruption, was FIRST formally opposed by

there been any hesitation in retaining

A Conversation ON Drinking.

Say, James, have you thought how

go ahead; but | notice this, tho, that
my money gets away strangely, and l
can hardly tell what gets it. Well now,
James, I have been thinking upon this
matter, and find l have consumed for

you drink four times a day, there is
forty cents for one day, and if you null

Is that so? 1T is Just 50.

the time that the statement was pre-
pared. Had he been fully sustained il
his views of the management, differ
ent condition of thing would be pre-
sented. He therefore made this genera
statement, which but foreshowed the
detailed report he should make to the
corporation, and which he would have
made at this time had he arrived home in
time.
He had been attacked, but the respon,
sibility does rot all rest on his shoulders,
nor did he propose TO bear all the blame.
We have given very imperfectly a
general summary Of Governor Pages
remarks, avoiding all dates and. statistics
for the reason his report will contain
them, and they were necessarily frag-
mentary and scattered through a long
period and could not be so classified BY
us as to give a connected and intelligent
view of the case. We believe in regard
to the deficit in the accounts OF the cor
poration it is conceded that all the debts
were legitimate, and no Irregularities
were charged upon any individual,
further than that a full statement oof tle
Indebtedness had not been heretofore
made. %

with his remarks, and they were. found
ed upon. data and records, ~ his posses
sion.
Gen. Whitney said that Gov. Pages
administration had been fully indicated
by his reelection, and personal quarrels
between directors shoald be laid aside,
and the meeting proceed TO business,
and proceeded to an explanation of the
vote of Tuesday and opposed any change
of it,
Gov Page remarked that be did not
ask a reconsideration of the vote.
Gen. Whitney said he had no objection
to the issue of preferred stock at par,
but not at a loss of 80 per cent, and the
directors should not be allowed to issue
it at less thar par. The stockholders
were now happy they could see their
way cut and their condition should not
be disturbed
On motion of Gen. Whitney, it was
Voted, T7hat Messrs. Edward Blake,

THE New POSTAL REGULATIONS on
NEWSPAPERS Postmaster General Ores
well has directed that the new rcgula-
tons on newspapers sent 10y mail be
strictly enforced. No name or memo
randum can be made on a newspaper in
side of the wrapper OH which the address
is written. 1t is barely permissible to
mark an article with pen or pencil.
More than this subjects the paper to
letter postage and the yiolator Of the law
to a fine. No printed card, handful or
advertisement, no written notice, letter,
or slip Of any kind whatsoever, must be
folded in the paper. To do any of these
things is to violate the law Printed
slips pasted on the outside, or folded in
papers and periodicals, soliciting notices,
are also violations Of the law Senders
of transient papers can send bundles of
printed matter by weight or transient
postage charges, but must not send any
written matter in such bundles.

\ FINE TEIBUTE 80 WoMAN.-In an
article treating generally Of the vices of

makes the following noble allusion TO
the influence of woman
Whatever political theorists may say.
the destiny of the human race is in the
haUds Of the women and their citidal
and throne is home. No place deserves
the name of home where woman Is not
treated in her pure and Womanly chdrac-
ter. And wherever woman dwclls ia
her honest and chaste relations. she is
in advance of her male companions
husband, brothers, children, in whatsO-
ever is of good report. Let them but
follow her counscls-it may he timid.
but still judicious let them heed her
warnings, impulsive perhaps perheps
illOgical-but always having an intuition
of the right as their foundation. and
they cannot greatly wander Wcman's
character and influence is the compile
ment of mans nature. And whenever
man and woman agree in the efforts to
make home pure and happy the in
mates of that household have protec-
ton better than all the Sol0ns among
lawgiyers could devise The ''family is
a divine institution, old as the race Of
man, and he or she who prOfancs il is
guilty of sacrilege."
