OUR ncighbors complain Of the multi
plicity of candidates, everywhere springing
up in their party. This is an evil they
might well deprecate, if there was any
hope of electing one in twenty of them to
office; but as defeat awaits their best man
in most of the localities where the griev-
ance complained of exists, we do not see
why they should take it SO seriously
at heart as they do. =" What can't be
cured must be endured, is not altogether
a WORKOUT adage, and never will be so long

in particular, banker after the "aesh-pots

1T is amusing to witness the feats of some
Of our literary higdalgos who sweep the field
Of learning as the fox brushes the thistle
down upon the heath. Like the funny
man in Rabelais, they "monochordize with
their fingers and barytonize with their
tails" 1t was the fool that built the
Ephesian dome; the hero that destroyed it.
And this sort Of heroism prevails largely
in Conservative circles Just now.

A CORRESPONDENT, writing to the Sac
ramento Record, under date New York,
april s, in giving details Of the Atlantic
disaster, says:
The greater number of the Storage
passengers saved from the wreck of the
steamship Atlantic arrived in this city
from Halifax on Sunday morning. They
appeared, with few exceptions, 10 be
men Of rugged health and evidently ac-
customed to hard labor. They were of
average intelligence, and some of them
appeared to have received good COM
mon school education. Thousands of
men, women and children were gathered
to meet them, and when friends or rela-
tives were recognized, men gave way en-
tirely, aud women either swooned or
screamed for joy. Even those who had
no friends among the crowd, and who
had only assembled out of curiosity,
sobbed and cried bitterly. The majority
of the poor fellows spoke disparagingly
of the Captain and the crew, but they
were full of gratitude to the good people
of Halifax who succored them for ten
days. One topic in particular they were
never tired Of, and that was the heroism
of one William Hoy, an Irshman, who,
after reaching landing place, saved
about twenty Of his fellow passengers.
An idea OF his efforts may be derived
from the fact that when his hands had
become benumbed with the cold, he
grasped the struggling men in the water
with his teeth.

DAILY RECORD
PUBLIC SERVANTS.

A contemporary denounces as I'M
American and abominable the sentiment
advanced that "only men Of abundant
means should be elected to Congress and
the Legislature. Rich men are not
more honest or Trustworthy than those
who are not possessed of aiiarge share of
this worlds goods, and experience does
not prove that they make better legisla-
tors. A mans wealth ought never to be
taken into consideration in connection
with his fitness for an official station of
any kind. An upright life, industrious
and temperate habits, genuine admiration
for free institutions, and an earnest de-
sire to purify the Government and see
the laws strictly enforced, are the most
essential qualifications for public Office.
These qualities are IS often found among
the poor as the rich. jefferson, Hamil-
ton, Monroe, Clay, Webster, Douglas,
Lincoln, and host of others, whose
names will forever shine among the
brightest in our eountry's history, lived
and died poor men. The idea that a rich
man is necessarily above temptation, or
is more likely to be out of the reach of
brides than Others, is on a par with the
argument often used that we must pay
our officials exorbitant salaries in order
to prevent them from stsaling-as if it
were possible to bride men TO be honest.
Equally absurd and reprehensible is
the practice of nominating and electing
men to positions Of honor and trust
because they are poor and need the
emoluments Of office. Considerations
of this character should never control
the actions of the people at the ballot
box. II we would preserve our Govern
ment and make free institutions the
grand success they deserve to be, we
must raise the standard OF official integrity
throughout the country. This can be
done by electing to Office only men OF
tried honesty, and in this manner max
ing olice-holding more respectable than
it is at present.

THE LATE ALBERT 1. SUMNER.

The Bridgeport, Conn Standard, of
April 70, says:
Colonel Sumner arrived here yester-
day, with the remains of his brother,
Albert |. Sumner, who persisted in the
Inflated Atlantic. When he arrived at
II .lifax he found the body enclosed in
n metallic case awaiting his arrival, and
upon opening the casket, to his great
satisfaction he found the familiar fea-
lures well preserved and looking as
placid as If they were composed in sleep.
Funeral services will be held at St.
Johns Church on next Tuesday morn
ing ut o clock, the choir taking prom
inent part in the exercise. The organ,
which Mr.. Sumner was to have played
for the first time tomorrow in the joyous
Eas,er carols, will, by its expressive ST.
lence ut the funeral services, add more to
the sOemnity Of the occasion, than it
could il waiting out the most plaintiye
requiem. the funeral cortege will leave
for Great Burlington on the 10 80 Hous-
atomic train Tuesday morning, and quite
q number of friends will Join the party.
Services will be held at the church in
Great Darlington, and the interment will
he made in time to allow the party to re-
turn here the same night.
Colonel Sumner reports that fifty miles
north of Boston the snow lies in mid
winter drifts upon the country, and its
immense quantity must cause cold north
and east winds for a long time yet. At
many stations on the roads, people were
standing in snow shoes, rendered neces.
sary in country travel, and the average
depth Of the snow in Maine and Canada
exceeds its greatest amount here at any
time during the past season. At Halifax,
Colonel Sumner attended the investiga-
tions Of the authorities into the cause Of
the Atlantic disaster, and met Captain
Williams, Of the Inflated steamer. He
speaks Of the Captain as impressing him
unfayorably, and as carrying himself with
an air of seeming indifference to the con-
sequences of the late terrible wreck.
