A Very Good Thing.

The Washington correspondent OF the
New York Times states that the President
has instructed tic Postmaster-Gcncral in no
case TO turn out" or remove all officer be-
cause of his political opinions, and that III
every case where complaint includes in the
lis; OF causes for removal the political
opinions of the officer desired to be removed
the word, "not considered" shall be entered
opposite the count.
We take it that this is strictly true because
il appears in the New York Times, the organ
OF the Administration. II we can only come
to the point that men shall be retained in
Office as long as they are faithful and compe-
tent we are out of the woods of the great
evil of ohicc-huntng and the use Of the
patronage of the Government for party pur-
poses. We have no objection to the state
nent Of General GRANTS opinion ON the
subject of appointments which has appeared.
lie is represented to have said that in APP
pointing man to Office preference will be
given to n friend of the Administration over
one who is opposed to it, but that friend
must upon examination be proved to be COM
potent. That's right. Every man Will con-
sent to that. But let it he understood that
once appointed no man who il competent
and faithful shall be removed, and there is an
end to the spoils system. We trust that the
statement in the Times is correct.

THE SUCCESSOR Or JUDGE NELsoN.-It Is
learned from the best tH sources that the
appointment of Hon. Ward Hunt, OF New
York, to The Supreme bench was if1nds By
the President on the direct personal solicita-
ton of Senator Conkling EX-Solicitor-Gene
rdl Blistow would undoubtedly have re-
ceiyed the appointment but for this. Mr..
Hunt is over sixty years of age is eX-Chiet
Justice of New York, and is resident Of
Mr.. Conkling's own city of Utica. 1t was
said openly at the capitol to-day by those
who are well-iuformed that Mr.. Hunt is to
be mere iocunl teneas for Mr. Conklng,
whose aspirations for the Supreme bench
have long Eecn a cause Of comment among
bis associates, and who will not himself be
eligible until after the 4th of March, when
his present senatorial term expires Wash
ington Correspondence Baltimore Sun.
Ward Hunt, who has been nominated by
the President as Il Justice Of the United
States Supreme Court, is native and resi-
dent of Utica, n. Y, Of which city his father.
the late Montgomery Hunt, was prominent
| citizen. He is about sixty years Of age, and
in early life was Il warm adhcrent Of the De-
mocratic party, and as such was elected,
when still a young man, mayor OF Utica.
Having inherited competency, MIR. Hunt
was not compelled to exert himself in his
profession ut the outset of his career, but in
time acquired high reputation as coun-
seor, and in 1865 was elected justice OF the
Court of Appeals by the Republicans.
Judge Hunt in his private life has been
irreproachablc from his youth. He has been
twice married-irst to n daughter OF the
late Chief-Justice Savage, and second to a
daughter of the late James Taylor, OF Alba
ny, a lady universally beloved.
While the influence of his fellow-toWns-
man Senator Conking doubtless had weight
in his appointment, tits understood that ne
was warmly recommended for the position
BY almost every man of legal prominence in
his neighborhood, including Governor Sey.

4 contrast, Indeed.

Tbe annual meeting Of the Cheap eake and
Ohio Railroad Company was held in TINS
CITY Yesterday. The proceedings OF the
meeting will dc found in this morning. ~
na,ca What a contrast is presented bF IN the
circumstances Under which this meeting s 4 ]
held and those under which the old Ce lnlllIa
railroad Company --out OF which TINS 0hesa'
neaSe and Ohio Company has growH--Wefe
held The annual reports Of the Central
Comnany sometimes announced some pro- no.
gress in the work, and always presented the
spnerhurnan difficulties in che way Of getting
money to carry on tho work. From 1857 TO
1869 were required to construct the road from
Richmond to the, White Sulphur Springs,
with the resort to two temporary tracks al
points where the works required q longer
time for completion. Each year presented
It's report of slow progress and almost uhcosl'
ouerable difficulties; but still there was
hope-indced, hoping against hope. NOW
we have the Chesapeake and ONO company
with lis grand achievements set forth IN re-
port which shows that in little over two
wears the great work is finished to the ONO
riyer--i. c., that in little over two years
the Chesapeake and Ohio Company have con-
s,ructcd as much railway rs 1t took the COM
biscd energies Of the Central Railroad COM
panv and the State of Virginia about forty
years to accomplish. .
The contrast is indeed as great as well
can be, and it is siou every way SATISFACTORY
to us. By the Isl Of January that great work
which connects The Virginia tide with Ohio
(which has been SO long the hope and the
promise of yirginia) will we completed, and
we shall be in rapid and intimate communi-
cation with the people of the Ohio Valley.
The achievement is wonderful, and greatly
to the honor of the company
By nextspring the company will be ac-
lively engaged in passenger and freight BUSH
ness between the East aud West; and in less
than year we shall be able TO leave Rich
mond in the morning and dine ut good
hour the next day in st. Louis! The road
is one of the best, and passes through one Of
the most charming portions of the Union.
No other road hus such attractions for the
passenger, such grand and enchanting
scenery, while no other passes through
II country so rich in mineral wealth.
The period of the completion Of such road
is an epoch in the history OF the nation, and
Virginia being the immediate beneficiary OF
its construction will derive incalculable adj
yantages from it. We felicitate all Virginia,
aud especially the people Of Richmond, upon
the close approximation Of this grand event.

The MfsSaQaS.

ITO N1CSSeS5OS'
The meeting of the Federal and State Lesis-
latures throws annually upon the press Il
very heavy burthen-a burthen which affords
little compensation, and which to both press
and readers is considered bore. This
burtlen is made up of the messages of Presi-
dent and Governors-do documents of immense
length and ponderous weight. In the earlier
days they were short papers and were soon
read. But they have grown longer with
tiue, and have for years been amplified to a
degree that makes their perusal great
burthcn. Mr.. JEFFERsoN's message was
about column, and MADISON and MONROE
only occupied at most two columns with
their suggestions. General JACKSON was the
first President to write very long message,
although Mr.. JOHN QuISCY ADAMS, who pre-
coded him, filed with his message considera-
bly, more space Of types and paper than his
predecessors.
Since JACKsoN's days messages have all
been long. The Governors have riyalled
the Presidents, and often beat them. Gov
error WISE one year sent three messages to
the Legislature ut the beginning of the ses'
sion, either of which was as long US an ordi
nary message. The yoluminousness of these
State papers induced the journalists to give
an analysis Of each message on the morning
of its publication. This has been great
convenience to the public, and nineteen out
Of twenty read the analysis and let the mes
sage "slide." The press, however, cannot
get of in this way. 1t has to publish the
whole message.
When the country had only 100000 in.
habitants and the whole revenue of the
Federal Government did not reach S20,000,-
900 it will be said there was then, compared
with the present day,-when the population
Is about 4o,ooo.occ and the revenue reaches
from Sl3s, 100000 to Sls5,000,0OO per an
nuM--little for President to write about
and less for the Governors. That Is true !;
but as the affairs OF Government grew more
ponderous and multilorm something more
Of system was demanded Of the Administra-
tons, State and Federal. The work of the
departments has been more systematized,
and there is better division of the labor of
the public officers by IN increase Of depart
ments. The reports of these divisions show
how each stands very clearly at the close of
every year, and if the State Department
would only group their aggregates and sug-
ges,ions in condensed paper the country
could see at a glance how everything stood
ar the years end, and the President could
get rid Of the drndgery Of Analysing those
papers in his message. That document
might then be brief. and rise to the proper
dignity of communication from the Chief
Magistrate containing brief suggestions Of
measures for the public welfare, and refer.
ring to the business documents of the secrc.
