oualified subordinate in the office would
doubtless have been promoted. But the Presi-
dent went over to the CustOm-house, took mr.
James from there, and made him Postmaster
for what reason we can only conjecture.
As we said before, we do not purpose vast
ing time in useless complaints over this sys-
tematic violation of the rules. We think 1t
would be better to abolish the rules alto
gether than to make them ridiculous by al
ways disregarding them. We think it would
be more dignifed to have some correspondence
between the professions of great Govern
ment like this and its practices. and not to leave
the Administration perpetually lying, 80 to
speak, about reform which it has no inten-
ton of putting into practice. Let us have the
regulations of the Civil Service repealed before
the President is tempted to break them ANY
more That will. at least relieve poor clerks
and deputies of the mistaken impression that
they can secure promotion by attention to
duty, and save them a great deal OF hard
work which is not likely to be rewarded.

IL begins to look as though the days of Mr.
Caldwell of Kansas in the United States Senate
were numbered. 1t is said that the advocates
of expulsion now number forty-fve which, if
Senators continue to leave as they have been
doing for the past week, will be, by the time
the vote is taken, the necessary two-thirds.
Since the whitewashing of Pomeroy, and the
shirking of duty in the cases of Patterson and
Harlan, the Senate seems to have had new
light on the subject of qualifications and dis
qualifications of members. 1t is barely possi-
BILE that this new light has come from the very
able and exhaustive arguments of certain Sen
ators, but it is much more probable that the
popular Indignation which has found utterance
in the columns of the press, irrespective OF
party, has had the effect to sharpen the vision
of Senators. There is pretty general feeling
through the country that just at this time Mr.
Caldwell of Kansas is luxury the Senate of
the United States cannot afford. cheering
feature of yesterdays debate was the solicitude
expressed by Mr.. Cameron of Pennsylvania for
"the reputation and fortune of fellow men,
"ber.n He did not like to leave while they
were at stake. Few Senator's can be so anus
ing as MIR. Cameron when he sets out.

A SIGNIFICANT APPOINTMENT.

Among the appointments sent to the Senate
for confirmation yesterday was that of n. d.
Sperry as Postmaster at New-Haven, Conn.,
The significance of this appointment at this
time consists in the fact that it has not been
usual to make appointments for Connecticut
until after the April election, the effect of
Withholding them being to ineite those who
are in to greater diligence in the hope of re-
tanning office, and those who are out
to be Jealous in the hope of getting
in. The appointment has further
significance from the fact that Mr.. Sperry is
the gentleman who organized the bolt against
Gen. Hawley's nomination for Senator last
Summer which defeated that gentleman and
reelected Mr.. Ferry. The present political
campaign in Connecticut has been made by
Gen. Hawley's friends, and notably by the
newspaper of which he is the nominal
editor, to hinge upon Mr.. Sperry's relations
with the party. The Republican candidate
for Governor (Mr. HAVEN was nominated be-
cause the opposing candidate for the nomina-
ton. Mr.. Henry b. Harrison, was supported
by Mr.. Sperry, and the two newspapers in
NewHaven controlled by the Postmaster have
opposed the regular Republican ticket One
of them continues its opposition in mild
form, though now ostensibly supporting the
ticket. The other is openly and persistently
hostile TO it.
The issue raised by The Hartford Courant is
that Mr. Sperry is an unprincipled and self-l
seeking politician, and that by his opposition

ing course in the present campaign. ho has

forfeited all claim to consideration in the
party, and should be ousted from the
Office he holds under the Administration
The action of the President in making
this appointment before the election would
seem to indicate that he is not 80 wrapped up
in Gen. Hawley as to resent the outrage put
upon him last Summer. Gen. Hawley, it wiz
be remembered, was the most outspOken and

most extraordinary woman was passenger on

her a pet poodle, and she had something else with
her, as we shall see presently. The gentlemanly
conductor stated to her in the mildest manner that
dogs were not permitted to ride in that car and that
hers must be put out. The damsel straightway
arose, drew revolver from her pocket. and said,

was referred, yesterday, upon the memorial OF
certain members of tho Legislature OF Mis-
souri,, to the Committee on Privileges and

napt party, it will be a relief for the Senate
to take up his case and expend on it some OF
the earnestness and energy of virtue that the

Gov. Dix has written letter to DIR. Tyng
giving the reasons which have impelled him
IN refuse to interfere in behalf OF Foster.
The letter is admirable in tone, unanswerable
IN its assertions and inferences. He demOl-
ishes. by a simple recital of the sworn evi-
dence in the case, the fantastic suppOsitiOn of
Fosters innocence to which we have recently
been made accustomed. and finds it impOs-
sible to revise the verdict of the jury
founded upon the facts, or the decision OF the
courts founded upon the law. The letter is so
good that it would be ungracious to cavil at
its tardiness or to refer to the alterations of
hope and despair to which the long delay has
subjected the unhappy prisoner. The case Is
now closed. With the conviction that mercy
to Foster would do great harm, we are for
hidden to inquire whether his execution will
do any good.

The business of making fancy nominations for the
next Presidency has already commenced. This is
free country, and anybody can nominate anybody
for any office without being sent to the penitentiary
for doing so But still there may be such thing as
using privilege rather too freely. There Is news
paper in Indiana which "hoists the flag OF o. T.
Morton for President and Benjamin F. Butler for
Vice-President in 1885, We don't know how Morton
feels about this but both he and Butler have sense
enough to know that these wildcat nominations are
apt to be particularly fatal to all hopes of cleo
ton.

The discovery of forged certificates of stock
in Wall Street is rendered the more unpleasant
by the prevailing loOseness with which values
are there exchanged. Clearly there is little to
hinder dishonest broker from flooding the
Street, since hardly one in a hundred of the ex-
changes of stock is made secure by verificatiOn
of the signatures at the transfer office. Till
doubtful stock is verhauled, matter not
likely to be accomplished in day, we should
say that prudent people would keep their
money from investments in the now dOubly
uncertain kind of commodities Wall Street has
generally to offer.

Crowds of Northern men flock to
Enterprise during the winter, and many
of them employ their time in hunting
alligators. The guests sit upon the
verandah of the hotel hour after hour
polishing alligator teeth with sandpaper
and buckskin. Every day somebody
brings in an alligator which has been
shot III the vicinity. After killing the
alligator, the men hitch him to the
stern of their boat with chain and
tow him to the beach in front of the
hotel. They then hire negro to cut
off his head and skin him. After the
head is cut off it is buried for two
weeks. This is necessary to secure the
monsters teeth. 1t is amusing to see
eminent bankers, ministers, judges, and
others watching a spot in the ground,
near the hotel, where they have buried
an alligator's head. Occasionally some
gentleman gets hold of the wrong head,
and then there is a row. Everybody
seems crazy on the subject of alligator
teeth. They sell from two dollars
apiece up to five dollars. l saw one
tooth five inches long sold to Capt. Tom
Reeves for twenty dollars. Some ne
groes make a fair living by carving
flowers and curious figures on the
teeth

Put Her Through.

The steamer Cassini, which lately
reached Philadelphia, after long pass
age from Liverpool, was evidently COM
manded by an officer with genius for
the healing art. The ship ran out OF
coal, and rather than run the risk of
putting into Halifax, her commander
used parts of the cargo for fuel. He
first selected a quantity of asafetida,
and with this odorous drug fumigrated
his passengers until he felt assured that
they were safe from contracting any dis
ease of typhoid character. This novel
practice he follewed up by burning vast
quantities of Peruvian bark, whereby
he evidently believed that he would rem
der his passengers proof against the
malarious poison which they would en-
counter in Philadelphia. Other articles,
most of which are new to the materla
medica, were subsequently packed into
the furnaces, and the steamer was
brought triumphantly into port, his
passengers being in vigorous health and
full of gratitude to their medicinal cap
tain.
