Heretofore Federal Offices have been regarded
too much as the reward of political service.
Under authority of Congress rules have been
established to regulate the tenure Of Office and
the mode of appointments ,
1t cannot be expected that any system of
rules can be entirely effective, and prove
perfect remedy for the existing evils, until
they have been thoroughly tested by actual
practice aud amended according to the re-
quirements of the service. During my term
Of office, it shall be my earnest endeavor to
so apply the rules as to secure the greatest
possible reform in the civil service Of the
Government, but it will require the direct &C:
ton of Congress to render the enforcement OF
the system binding upon my successors; and
1 hope that the experience of the past year,
together with appropriate legislation by Con.
gress, may reach satisfactory solution of this
question and secure to the public service for
all time, practical method of obtaining
faithful and efficient officers and employees.

A WHOLESOME MED1c1NE.-Are you in
trouble Work it of: Don't try to quench
your sorrow in rum or narcotics. If you be-
gin this you must keep right on with it, till it
leads you to ruin; or if you try to pause, you
must add physical pain and degradation to
the sorrow you seek to escape. Of all wretch
ed men, his condition is the most pitiful who,
having sought to drown his grief in drink,
awakes from his debauch with shattered
nerves, aching head and depressed mind, to
face the trouble again. That which was at
first painful to contemplate, will, after drink,
seem unbearable. Ten to one the fatal drink
will be again and again sought, till its victim
sinks hopeless, pitiful wreck. Work is your
true remedy. If misfortune hits you hard,
you bit something else hard. There is moth
ing like good, solid, exhausting work to cure
trouble. There are some great troubles that
only time can heal, and some, perhaps, that
can never be healed at all but all can be
helped by this great panacea. Try it, you
who are afflicted. 1t operates kindly and
we'll, leaving no disagreeable consequence in
its train, and large quantities of it may be
taken with the most beneficial effects.

The LAST NEWSPAPER READ BY GENER-
AL LEA gentleman residing in this city,
and who returned from the Washington and
Lee University, of Virginia, relates some
pleasant facts connected with the last days of
General Lee He says that the private room
in the University which the General occupied
has been left just as it was when he went out
of it on the morning he took his bed, and from
which he never arose. The general went into
his room at his usual hour that morning, put
on his slippers, took seat near window,
from which he drew the curtain partially back,
and began reading copy Of the Nashville
Union and american. Hehad been complain
ing of feeling unwell, and after reading q
short time, he laid the paper on the table and
left the room, never more to return. To-day
the visitor to the University is shown the room,
which he is allowed to enter, but is prohibited
from touching anything. On the dust:covered
table he sees the paper as it dropped from the
hand of the great chieftain, and near the
chair, which is partly turned around, his slip
pers. The curtain is in the same position in
which the general placed it, and in the ink:
stand is the deeply corroded pen, just as it had
been left when last used. A guard is mount
ed at the door every day to see that nothing
about the room is disturbed by any one visit
ing it.-Nasbmle Union and Americrn, No.

ality, he never, where principle as he saw it
was involved, sacrificed the right to the expe'
dient but always preferred, in maintaining
his convictions, rather to break than to bend.
His name will be national property, and will
continue for many generations to reflect lus'
tire upon bis country, while the colored race
whom he aided so much to relieve from chat,
tel and civic bondage, will, in gratefully cher
ishing the memory of his noble service, forget
his once grievous fault
In conclusion, fellow-citizens, I would do
injustice to the impulses ofmy heart should l
fail, on such an occasion as the present, to
recognize and gratefully acknowledge the
services rendered to the cause of free govern
ment in South Carolina by my distinguished
predecessor. First entering the State as a
prisoner of war, whose command was defeated
without dishonor, he was duly exchanged, af:
ter long confinement in military prison, and
at the close of hostilities in the field returned,
with promotion to the rank of ma jor general
of the United States Army, to administer the
affairs of an important bureau Of the govern
ment of our State. In that capacity he or
ganized the labor system on free basis, pro.
tecting alike the rights OF the employer and
the labor. His administration as Governor
of South Carolina is before the country, and
by the country it will be judged. Whatever
that judgment may be, l but express the opin-
ion of those who know him best, when I say
that he has endeavored to discharged the du-
ties of his high office in the interest of the
party that elected him and for the welfare of
the people of the State.
With a solemn appreciation of the grave
responsibility imposed upon me in the perfor-
nance of my duties, and in the earnest hope
that the important matters involved in the
situation before US may bring about the ut
most concert and unanimity of action, COM
mend your deliberations to the merciful su-
perintendence of that Almighty Power which
presides over States and nations.

sa- In recent dog suit in California the
effect of cutting off dogs ears and tail came
up incidentally, and it was in proof that if
you clip the dogs ears after the dog is year
old, the ears will lop forward; otherwise, if
the ears are trimmed when the dog is a pup,
and so with the tail cut when the animal is
young, the stub will retain an elevated posi-
tion at an angle of forty-6ve degrees ever
after.

pa| In dealing with animals, untimely or
unreasonable whipping, angry or boisterous
words, are always out of place-always do
more harm than good. The dullest animal
appreciates kindness. The most celebrated

made these words his motto "Firmness and
kindness" and he never failed of success.

CRIME AND PAUPERISM.

The Superintendent of the Census has
just made up the statistics Of pauperism and
crime in the United States according to the
Census of 1870, from which it appears that on
the 1st of June of that year there were 32,9Ol
persons in prison throughout the United
States, or one incarcerated criminal to every
1172 of population, and 76,737 paupers, or
one in every 402 of population. Of the GRIM
inals, 24,173 were native born, showing one
in 1864 of our native population in durance
vile. Dividing the native born BY color,
there were 1911 whites, or one criminal in
each 1744, and S046 negroes, or one criminal
in each 606 of that race. The foreign born
criminals number 8728, or one in every 6S7.
As to paupers, there are 53,939 native born,
or one in 622, and 22,79S foreign born, or
one in 244 Of the native born paupers, A..
539 we're white, or one in 753, and 1857
black, or one in $40.
Out of the 32,901 criminals, 6341, or about
one-ffth, are in the reconstructed States, and
4204, or two-thirds of these offenders are
negroes. In the same States there are 600
paupers, or about one-eighth of the whole
number, and 1856 of these are blacks.
lNo WuIIC poPuiotiou VI enS'o WI S'ese~S
being 4,6OS, 1863, and the negroes numbering
3,616,7O1, the Superintendent's figures fur.
nish US with the deduction that the negroes Of
the South have in round numbers about four
times as many paupers, and three times as
many criminals as the whites, while million
less in number than the whites.
But bad as is the showing made by the
negroes of the southern States, they are far
better off in the late slave-holding States, as
regards either pauperism and crime, than in
the old free States. In the old free States
there are 364,0O1 negroes, and of these 1746
are criminals and 1854 paupers, or one Grim
inal in 2OS and one pauper in 14O, or four
times as many criminals and five times as
many paupers in proportion among northern
as there are among southern negroes. This
so far as pauperism is concerned-and pau
perism leads to crime-is the best evidence
that can be deduced, and which the negro
will one day learn, that the southern white
man is his best friend.
