dctive men is worse than their bite. Nothino
is gained by yielding to them. The White
House influence, it must be admitted, is moro

SFLENADE OFFICE-HOLDERS.

In one of the oriental cosmogonies the world
rests on a serpent, which rests on an elephant,
which rests on a tortoise, which rests upon
nothing. If you can believe the first three
propositions your faith becomes sufficiently
robust not to give way at the last. Those
who Loyalty trust the present Administration
are expected to believe something like this in
relation to the true responsibility for the
Vienna disgrace. Meyer and Stiasny and the
others have behaved shamefully; this is
admitted. But nobody is responsible for
their appointment. They were strongly
recommended to Gen. Van Buren, and
he passed them on the State Depart
ment and Mr.. Fish to the President
and in some mysterious way, without the ex-
ercise of the intelligent volition of any NOR
tai, they were commissioned and sent abroad,
armed with the power to faint and soil our
name in O minute more etfectually than the
President and the Secretary can clean 1t In
years. Mr.. Fish, who in his quality as a gem
tleman and man of character, takes
less liberal view of bribery and theft
than the average politician, is said to
be greatly. dissatisfied at the misconduct
of these people who are, after all, subOrdinates
of his, and wishes it to be known that he did
not select them. 1t is not likely that the
President will be so sensitive about lt-tor
reasons that we need not repeat-but we ex-
pect to hear from him also that they were not
the men of his choice. When Gen. Van Buren
shall have spoken also, we shall be convinced
that nobody wanted these men; that they
came into place by species of parthencgene-
sis independent of paternal auspices. They
are the official Melchizedecs of the age.
This is all very idle and unworthy. Nobody
doubts the integrity or the sense of honor OF
the Secretary of State. His acknowledged
character is q matter of Importance to the
Administration. His good repute is made to
cover a multitude of sins. But these things
are not done with impunity. Neither Mr.
Fish nor his friends can forget that his name
is signed 80 the commissions by which Iud-
son. Cramer, Butler, and the rest OF that
unsayory category have been privileged to DIS
honorand discredit the American name IN foreign
countries. If Mr. Fish had not signed hs name
TO these commissions other men would have
been sent No one could have been worse.
IL is true that these worthless wOuld have been
proyided for in some other department, but
we should at least have been spared the antics
they have allowed themselves In the race Oh
the unsympathizing world. IL is useless, ana
not true, TO say that there is any necessity ior
such appointments If COngr ssman comes
and asks that an improper person be pu'
IN Office, q prompt refusal is al that Is

The Commercial Adrerfiser says: "The eItraordi.
nary enterprise Of The Herald in procuring at gea.
expense some seven columns Of teleHapbc core
spOndence from Vienna, makes an era in journalism
Il is the most extensive and successful enterprise Of
the kind ever attempted by any newspaper" Thu
statement merely shows how short are the memories
of the readers of newspapers. The HeTdldS puOlica
ton was certainly remarkable and plucky one, bot
neither in quantity, expense OF importance can 1t bs
called unprecedented. 1t bears no comparison in
any Of these respects with the work done by The
TRIBUNE in the FrancoPrussian war. On the 4th Of
September 1870, we gave over three columns OF
dispatches IN English and two columns in German,
describing that event. The next days paper con-
tanned over four columns and The TRIBUNE Of the
9Th gave nine columns of special dispatches Of the
most momentous news, containing an interview with
Prince then Count Bismarck relative to conditions
of peace; accounts of the fighting at and near
Sedan. and the revolution in Paris. On the 7th
THE TRIBUNE gave nine and hrO-thirds columns 10 the
closing scenes at Sedan and the establishment Of the
Republic in Paris. All these dispatches were sent
exclusively to this paper and were written by Jour
nalists Of equal ability and energy IN the midst OF
the tremendous scenes they described. It VIII De
remembered that a column in THE TRIBUNE contains
much more matter than a column OF any other
paper While the Vienna dispatches to The H9ah
contained some $500 words, The TRIBUNE dispatches
of the 9th September, 1870, contained llOOO words
and those of the 7th rose to the imposing figure OF
1890 As to the relative importance of the news
there will be no question. The events which de-
stroyed one great Empire and built up another
which changed the map of Europe for ages to come,
were certainly more worthy of recording than
royal pageant. At least, we regard them IN that
light. When an occasion of equal gravity requires
it, we shall repeat the effort and we trust the tn
umph Of that time; and in the mean time we apple
ciate and enjoy the enterprise of our negbboS whe
take a different view of the relative Importance oi
news.

THE NORTH WESTERN EPISCOPAL CON

For many reasons the proceedings of this
body, now in session in Cleveland. have an
unusual interest outside of the Church which
it represents. Nothing gives so wholesome or
welcome an indication of our progress nova
days as to find any sectarian convention free
ing itself from sectarian prejudice and basing
its action not on old dogmas or precedents, but
on the broad ground Of common sense and the
love of God and our neighbor. Especially is
such action significant of the higher levels TO
which Christians are aspiring when it occurs

Mr.. Nathan Appleton has issued a card giyings
full account of his connection with the house oi
Bowles Bros g. Co. 1t contains the history OF one
OF the most amazing experiments in finaneienns
ever attempted, the house to which he belonged
having established branches all over the globe and
projected stupendous system of international e1'
change, the only apparent basis for all these mag
nifcent schemes having been 100000 OF Mr.. Apple
toms money. As these cloud-castles have now
melted away there seems to be necessity ot buhd-
ing them anew The practical portion Of Slr Apple
toms card is the statement it makes in regard to the
offer of settlement which has been made by Bowles
Bros & Co. to their creditOrs50, 40 or 30 per cent
of their claims according the liabilities OF the
house from comparison Of their books in the diff
ferent countries where they have been doing busi-

first respectively. In making these payments the
assets of Bowles Brothers are TO be used hrst MI

That the Indian disturbances in Oregon are
causing uneasiness elsewhere appears from
dispatch from the Governor of Washington
Territory. That functionary telegraphs to the
Secretary of the Interior that savages in his
region are making hostile demonstrations, and
that he wants arms. In Eastern Utah, also,
there is disquiet among the Indians, and it is
quite likely that the general apprehension Will
affect the tide of emigration which would
have otherwise flowed into that portion OF the
country this Spring.
