WASHINGTON.
Fred. Douglass ON Civil Service Reform
Supposed Reflex of the Presidents Views
i'm Reply.
Special Dispatch to the Times and Chronicle.J

Special Dispatch to the Times and Chronicle.
WASHINGTON, Nov. %.
An editorial in Fred. Douglass paper
this week, attacking civil service reform,
has attracted considerable attention here,
and causes muchIcomment in Administra-
tion circles. 1t is replied to by the Repub-
Licdn to-day, in significant double-leaded
editorial, which is understood to reflect
the sentiments of President Grant, and
shows that the latter has modified his for
mer views. Mr.. Douglass, in his ar ticle
charges that civil service reform places
enemies of the Republican party, and
even avowed rebels, on an equal footing
with hardworking Republicans, however
competent and honest. "The Offices" Mr.,
Douglass says, SHOULD be filled by the
men who won the recent victory at the
polls, and preserved the nation from the
calamity which threatened it,"
The Republicans editorial says: "The
President has lately given the entire ques-
ton good deal of attention and consider
alton, and is, we understand, entirely sat-
isfed that the competitive system should
not be rigidly enforced, if indeed he is not
convinced that it should be entirely abol-
ished. What is required is standard of
efficiency to which all who are candidates
should be up. It is not intended to put
the enemies of the Republican party on an
equal footing with hard-WOrklng Repub-
licans' but it is the intention that
'hard-working Republicans shall not
obtain office without the least re-
gard to their competency. General
Grant believes that first of all, all other
things being equal, the men who have
stood by the party should be appointed TO
office, in preference to those who have been
opposed to it; but to protect the public
service there must be some standard of ac-
quirement, and no man who falls below it
can be appointed merely TO strengthen the
party -.- a., --ts-- ca.
"There is large class Of persons who
are entitled to office on many grounds, such
as service in the late war, fidelity to Re-
publican principles, &c. but in addition
to these qualifications, they must be to
certain standard of efficiency, before, in the
future, they can be appointed. When
they are thus qualified, in an educational
point, which is not to be decided or deter
mined on the competitive plan, then they
are in all cases, to get the preference. If
the Government has favors to give they
should, in the opinion of the President 60
to the person who has stood by the Govern
ment provided he is fitted for The position
he may seek"

The Presidents Message.
The Policy eff The Administration ITO Re-
main Unchanged slt

main Unchanged 30 =
! IS WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-The rough
draft of the Presidents annual message,
though not quite finished, was read to the
cabinet to-day, all the members being pres
ent. 1t will be somewhat, perhaps, one
fifth, longer than last years message.
Two copies are to be furnished Congress,
and five will be made in profile for the
use of the city press and for telegraph
| ing. In response TO a request asked by the
writer of this dispatch, the President re-
marked that he had no objection to saying
| that the message would not show a change
of policy on his part, as his endeavor was
now as it had been in the past, to perform
| his entire duty to the best of his ability,
and such measures as would best serve the
interests of the country. He was not GER
tain that he would recommend to Con-
gress an extension of amnesty to the two
or three hundred persons excluded by the
recent legislation, but if he should it would
be with proposed condition that the bene-
ficiaries merely take an oath to support
the constitution of the United States. Con-
gress, however, had ample authority in the
provision, and could act with regard to the
matter without repetition of his views
upon the subject, contained III his former
annual message.
He saw no more necessity, as bad been
asserted, for making a declaration of q
more friendly policy towards the South
than for such q declaration towards the
North, as he sought, as President, under
the obligations Of his oath, to execute the
duties of his position, without favor orpar-
tiality in accordance with the law. He
would, in his message, endorse such recon-
mendations of the Legislature as may be
presented by the heads of the several de-
partments, and which experience had
shown to be,,necessary; and he would recon-
mend to Congress that action be taken
with regard to the award made by the ar
bitratorS. The money will be paid by
Great Britain to the Department of State
and deposited in the the treasury. Of
course it can not be drawn therefrom eX-
cept in accordance with the law for the
purposes specified. In the course of con-
versation on the subject of civil service re-
form the President said that while COM
petitive examinations were desirable he
did not think it right that offices should
be granted to enemies of the administra-
tion-to them exclusive of its friends. He
was now engaged examining applications
for pardon, taking up the cases sing1y with
a view to making conclusions upon them.
He intended to pardon Col, Bowerman,
who, about eighteen months ago. was con-
victed of embezZelmert while he was
an on officer on the Baltimore GUS
tom house. He added that in addition to
other reasons, Col. Bowerman was brave
and faithful office during the late war.

proper way va to make a &C CUP of of good m tea is a
matter of some importance. The plan
which l have practiced for these twelve
months is this: The tea pot is atonce filled
up with boiling water, then the tea is put
into the pot, and is allowed to stand for
five minutes before it is used; the leaves
gradually absorb the water, and as gradu
ally sink to the bottom; the result is that
the tea leaves are not scalded, as they are
when boiling water is poured upon them,
and you get all the true flavor of the tea.
In truth, much less tea is required in this
way than under the old and common prac-
tice,-Jan1es CuthiH, London. sH7.s

WASHING WoOLEN BED CLOTHING
tits said by some, wash i'll warm water );
by others in cold water We know that
warm water will cause shrinking. A
large, fine rose blanket washed at three
different times, shortened six to seven
inches each washing. In the centre it
pulled up and made a shapeless thing. We
were told TO wash III warm water and
rinse in water Of the same temperature.
Il was done, and with perfect success. The
blanket is even longer and more even.
The shrinking seems to take place on the
sudden change of the temperature from
warm water to cold. The gradual cooling
and drying afterwards does not seem to
affect it any; so the slow change in the
temperature of frozen fruit leaves the fruit
unhurt.

ToDYE CHEAP WOODS WALNUT COLOR.
"A correspondent of the Scientific Anaeri-
can writes Here is the process which
Mr. J. r. Rochard, French carpenter,
used while working in Paris. Take green
husks walnut (Brou) and put them to
macerate in water, for, say fifteen days !;
at the end of that time boil them, little
in the same water; let the dccoction cool,
and use it by soaking a piece of rag in it
and rubbing the surface of the wood with
it. Two rubbings will give to the wood the
color desired. When wanted to dye hard
wood like oak, rub the wood previously
with salt of nitre and proceed as before"
